KNOW THIS.
Simple Homemade Treatment
Said to Overcome Rheuma-
tiSm.

When an eminent authority an
nOunced in the Scranton pa.
Times that he had found a new
way to treat that dread American
disease, Rheumatism, with just
common, everyday drugs found in
any drug store, the physicians
were slow indeed to attach much
Importance to his claims. This
was only few months ago. To.
day nearly every newspaper in the
country, even the metropolitan
dailies, is announcing it and the
splendid results achieved. 1t is SC
simple that any one can prepare il
at home at small cost. 1t is
made up as follows:
Get from any good prescription
pharmacy one-half ounce Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one ounce
Compound Kargon, three ounces
Compound Syrup Sasaparilla,
Mix by shaking in a Bottle ano
take a teaspOonful after meals and
at bedtime. These are all simple
ingredients, making an absolutely
harmless home remedy at little
cost.
Rheumatism, as every one knows,
is a symptom of deranged kidneys.
1t is condition produced by the
failure of the kidneys to properly
filter or strain from the blood the
uric acid and other matter which,
if not eradicated, either in the
urine or through the skin pores,
remains in the blood, decomposes
and forms about the joints and
muscles, causing the untold suffer
ing and deformity of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be a
splendid healing, cleansing and in
MIGRATING tonic to the kidneys,
and gives almost immediate relief
in all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles and backache, He also
warns people in leading New
York paper against the discrimi-
nate use of many patent medicines.

FIRE IN BOSTON
Ten Thousand People Homeless
LOOterS Shot Down by the
Militia--Many Churches
Destroyed.

An area of three hundred and
fifty acres of blackened ruins, re-
presenting a quarter of the total
area of the city marks the scene of
great fire which swept through
the business section of Chelsea,
Mass, on Sunday turning 10000
people out of their homes and
causing aproperty damage esti-
mated at eight million dollars.
The burned area is guarded by
militia. Only threee persons are
known to have lost their lives.
Over half a hundred people are
hurt dangerously. Starting from
a public dumping ground, the
blaze spread straight across the
city.
The distance from the point
where the fire started to the stop
is a mile and a half, and the
greatest width of the fire is a half
mile. During the fire more than
fifty babies were picked up by
police, and citizens and taken to
police stations. The burned dis
trict included a large number of
manufacturing concerns, stores,
many costly residences churches
and public buildings.

That languid, lifeless feeling that comes
with spring and early summer, can be
quickly changed to feeling of buoyancy
any energy by the judicious use of DR..
Shops Restorative. The Restorative is
a genuine tonic to tired, run-dowp nerves,
and but few doses is needed to satisfy
the user that DR.. Shops Restorative is
actually reaching that tired spot. The
indoor life of winter nearly always leads
to sluggish bowels, and to sluggish circu-
lation in general. The customary lack Of
exercise and outdoor air ties up the liver,
stagnates the kidneys, and oft-tmes
weakens the Hearts action. Use DR..
Shops Restorative few weeks and all
will be changed. A few days test will tell
you that you are using the right remedy
You will easily and surely note the change
from day to day. Sold by +. G. Duerson.

1t is entirely natural that there
should be dismay in the Democratic
camp over the news that the Repub-
lican party purposes to undertake,
next winter, the revision of the
tariff. The lowering of the Dingley
schedules has been the one practical
plank with which the Democrats
hoped to appeal to the country.
And now they are bereft of that.
Moreover, every thinking revisionist,
even in the Democratic party, must
vote the Republican ticket if he is
true to his convictions. He must
realize that even if there were elected
a Democratic President and Demo
cratic House the Senate would re-
main "hopelessly Republican" for
at least another administration and
that under such circumstances any
tariff measure would result only in q
deadlock. If he really wants tariff
revision, therefore, he must vote for
a Republican President and a Re-
publican Congressman.

A Moral Awakening.

The more thoughtful of the Amer
lean people see, in the reforms now
being attempted both social and
political, a great moral awakening
throughout the country, and a
prominent religious publication of
New York expresses regret that this
movement did not have it's origin
inside the church organizations in
stead of among statesmen and stu
dents of economics wholly outside of
denomin ational church work. The
same publication now calls upon
the churches to get onto the band
wagon and help the good work
along. The contest now being
waged against the big trusts is not
a warfare against combinations of
capital as an abstract proposition,
but against the fragrant abuse of the
power with which such co1nbina-
tions have heretofore been clothed.
The absolute necessity of great
combinations of capital must be
conceded by all practical people,
and it is just as essential to the
public welfare that such combina-
tions be restricted in their power to
fleece" the people that their profits
may be exorbitant.

Dramatic Readings.

The Tuesday Club is fortunate in
securing the service of Mrs. Ida
Dearborn for a dramatic reading to
be given at the Congregational
church, Monday evening, March %,
at SIS o'clock. Press notices from
many large cities where Mrs. Dear
born has recited speak of her read
ings in the highest terms. Mrs.
Dearborn's speciality is Ibsen's
dramas and she will give "A Dolls
House" on that evening. Admis-
sion will be CSC. Reserved seats
10c extra. Tickets on sale at Tag
CARTS drug store, Saturday morn
ing, March IA, at ten o'clock.
Mrs. Ida Dearborn gave a very
artistic Interpretation of Ibsen's
Dolls House" at Manning College
Hall last evening. The arrange
ment of the play was done by the
reader herself, as was a large part
of the translation. For that reason
the play to those familiar with it
had many new features. Mrs. Dear
born was most happy in keeping her
characters individual and diStinc-
tive. Her idea of the play is that it
is Ibsen's thought to present the
evolution of one character, that of
Nora, the wife. With this idea in
mind Mrs. Dearborn works out the
play with Nora in high relief and
with the other characters in the
background. Nora is ever present,
both actually and in atmosphere.
1t is difficult to criticise such a
reader as Mrs. Dearborn, for the
listener forgets the reader in his alb
sorbing interest in the play, which
is the highest praise that can be
given an interpreter.
A strong test of Mrs. Dearborn's
power to sink her individuality in
that of the character represented
was given in the second scene,
where she dresses in the Swedish
peasant costume and still maintains
several characters. She has a
powerful voice, capable of express
ing wide range of emotions; she
has reserve power, and there is an
intellectual quality in her rendition
of great plays that is very satisfy
ing. There is such good taste man
ifested in her presentation that one
feels at once sure there will be no
OVERRIDING nor reading for effect

The Collinw0od Horror.

One of the most lamentable catas-
trophies of its kind which has ever
occurred is the Collinwood holo-
caust reported last week, in which
about one hundred and seventy-five
pupils and teachers lost their lives.
This terrible sacrifice of human life
to the faulty construction of single
public school building should prove
an effective admonition to architects
and school officers throughout the
country to exercise greater consider
atoms of safety in the planning and
erection of school buildings. The
Collinwood disaster furnishes a
most emphatic condemnation of the
opening inwardly of outside doors
to public buildings. If it is an un-
questioned fault in design and con-
struction to have outer doors open
to the interior, what can be said in
defense of having any outside door
securely locked during school hours,
while there are hundreds of children
within the building, as is said to
have been the case at Collinwood?
The Collinwood horror has
brought out the interesting informa-
ton that twenty-five of the public
school buildings in Milwaukee, con-
coded to be fretraps, are without
fre-escapes, although state official
clothed with authority to do so
ordered that said buildings be sup
piled with suitable fire-escapes over
three years ago.
No school building should be
more than two stories high, all out
side doors should open outward,
and be unlocked during school hours,
all corridors should be spacious,
and attics should not be used for
school purposes. School buildings
sufficient to accommodate all pupils
would undoubtedly cost more money
to build, but SO constructed and
used would reduce to a low mini
mum the danger of loss of life as a
result of fires.

self and it's methods which has al
ways characterized the Republican
party and made it the efficient poll
tical entity that it is, it now pur-
poses to arrange programme for
the work preliminary to tariff re-
vision. The tariff commission
scheme of Senator Beverage has
been fatty and emphatically re-
jected. There is to be no blare of
trumpets, no beating of bass drums
about the matter, but before Cong
ress adjourns the Finance committee
Of the Senate and the Ways and
Means committee of the House will
have been authorized to hold Ses-
sions during the recess and to take
such steps as they deem expedient
in view of the approaching readjust-
ment of the tariff schedules. The
President, also, will do his part by
appointing a committee of Treasury
officials who will prepare a report
embodying such changes in the adj
ministrative portion Of the law as
experience has demonstrated to be
advisable. When Congress meets
again, next December, everything
will be in readiness for prompt and
expeditions action and before the
industries have had time to feel any
disquieting effects the work will
have been accomplished.
