Letter to T. ID. Collins,
TfoneStd, Pa.

DEAR SIR:-No man il in position to
influence men with regard to their prop
erty more than you in that little room
where they tell you their troubles. Pity,
if you don't know how to keep a house
dry and sound, any sort of structure
house store factory warehouse shop barn
fence-any sort of fence, except rail; with
paint.
What paint? The paint that takes least
gallons; for paint costs money, and put
ting it on costs twice as much as the
paint.
That is short; but that's all; it includes
the rest. One paint wears long, another
wears short; but the one that wears long
is the least-gallons paint; least-gallons
means pure and strong, and most-gallons
means adulterated and weak, besides
small gallons.
Paint is one of the biggest interests in
the United States; not the business OF
making il; no, the business of paint, TAX
ing care of property. Paint is worth a
great deal more than it costs, and the best
costs least: Devoe.
Yours truly,
IL r. W. DEvoE Il Co.,

died of appendicitis at the Emergency
hospital, Warren, Pa, at six o'clock q.
IN. March 20, 1907, aged years, 2 months
and IL days. Mearl was taken sick on
Wednesday previous to his death but his
condition did not seem serious until Sun
day, but began growing worse until Tues
day morning, when he was taken to the
hospital where he was operated upon but
without success, and he died in few
hours. His sickness was of short dura-
ton but his suffering vas intense, which
he bore very patiently. Mearl was very
bright and intelligent child for one of his
age, and none knew him but to love him.
He will be missed very much, not only
in his own home but among his play
mates as well. BE leaves to mourn their
loss his parents, three brothers and two
sisters, who have the sympathy of all in
their sad bereavement. The remains
we're brought to the home of his parents
at Porkey and from there taken to Ship
penville on Thursday, where the funeral
services We conducted Friday forenoon
in the Lutheran church by the Lutheran
minister, and the remains laid to rest in
the cemetery at that place to await the
resurrection morn. K.C.H.

Little Daughter Of Rev. Paul J. Sion
aker Badly Burned.

Rev. DR.. Slonaker, of Brockwayville.
through whose efforts the past winters
lecture course was secured for Tionests,
was missed from the last number of the
course. the Jackson concert, on Thursday
evening. In note TO the REPUBLICAN
Dr. Slonsker explains the reason and
gives this account OF the serious accident
which befell their sweet little daughter,
| Frances:
II had planned to be at the jackson
Concert Company entertainment but was
hindered because of the serious accident
that befell our home. On Tuesday eve
ming, 10Th inst, Mrs. Slonaker had put
the children to bed and had gone down to
the library to read. Frances got up to go
to the bath room and in passing an open
gas stove her night gown took fire.
Paul, her nine-year- brother, land
what hero he was, hearing her screams,
ran to her and finding his sister all in
flames, snatched quilt from the bed and
wrapped her in it and smothered the
flames out When Mrs. Slonsker reached
the room Paul said, Il got it out, Mama?
Paul saved his sisters life. AS 1t was,
her left leg was burned from the ankle TO
four inches above the hip, so that the
skin came off, and her left hand, as the
doctor said, was just cooked besides
other burns. Frances is doing nicely
aud is going to get we'll"
DR.. Slonaker also says in his letter,
concerning the lecture course just ended;
"You have always been very kind to me,
for which l thank you very much.
wish now to thank you for your aid in
securing and promoting the lecture

REPRESENTATIVES, MCINTYRE, of Mer-
Ger, has introduced in the Legislature a
bill to make possible more general tax
alton of dogs. 1t requires that every dog
shall wear a collar to which shall be at
tached metal tag supplied by the COM
missioners and distributed by the tax
collectors when taxes are collected each
year. Should the tax assessed not be
paid and the other requirements of the
act not be complied with by the end OF
each year, it becomes the duty of consta-
bles to kill all dogs not equipped with
collar and tag. For each dog killed the
constable shall receive fee of fifty cents.
Every person keeping or harboring dog
about his premises shall be considered
its owner for all purposes of the act.

On the subject of vaccination. which
is just now claiming good deal of the
attention of the lawmakers at Harris
burg, the Franklin News very sensibly
remarks: A vaccination bill recently
introduced in the house, which requires
all children to be vsccinsted within two
years after birth, will be opposed all over
the state because of its drastic features.
All the state policeman couldn't enforce
it. The people wont have it. 1t is not
disputed that smallpox, the former
scourge and horror of mankind, has been
reduced to minimum by means of the
vaccine virus. The characterization peo-
pie oppose the present law as unfair and
unequal. Why, they ask, does not the
law compel teachers as we'll as pupils to
be vaccinated? And why not vaccinate
the directors and the parents, to say moth
ing of the people who crowd the church.

DO Not Crowd the season.

The first warm days OF spring bring
with them desire to get out and enjoy
the exhilirating air and sunshine. Chill
dren that have been housed up all winter
are brought out and you wonder where
the.J ali came from. The heavy winter
clothing is thrown aside and many shed
their flannels. Then a cold wave comes
and people say that grip Is epidemic.
Colds at this season are even more dam
gerous than in mid-winter, as there is
much more danger of pneumonia. Take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, however.
and you will have nothing TO fear. 1t al
ways cures, and we have never known a
cold to result in pneumonia when It was
used. 1t is pleasant and safe to take,

The local option bill was effectually
killed in the House at Harrisburg Mon
day night. The proposition to place
the bill on the calendar, Notwithstanding
the negative recommendation of the COM
mittee having it in charge, was defeated
by a vote of 96 to SO, less than constitu-
tional majority voting in the affirmative.
The fight lasted for three hours. A mo-
tion to reconsider may prevail to bring
the matter up again, but it is evident the
bill has not friends enough in the legis-
lsture to pass it.

ONE of the most interesting announce
meuts made for future consideration is
that ex-Judge Harry White, of Indiana
county will be candidate for the Repub.
lioan nomination to congress- next year
in the Twenty.seventh District. Judge
White has been more or less couspicu-
GUS figure In Pennsylvania politics for
almost half century. He was a member
of the State Senate "A years ago, and of
the constitutional convention of 1878,
served in the Civil War, later was elected
to congress, and then held the position of
Common Pleas Judge in his district for
20 years. Evidently he enjoys public
life and the conflicts of politics, or at his
age he would hardly care to take the
field for another tussle. 1t is understood
that he believes it is anybody's fight un-
der the new primary election law; that it
will OF be question of giving the nom
ination to this or that particular county,
and that the unwritten law under which
congressman in many districts were con-
ceded two terms and no more has been
abrogated. This is fair estimate of the
effect of the new system and there are
likely to be some highly interesting events
in more than one district in consequence

Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
