Indian Siqn LANGUAGE.

With the passing Of the old Indian
men and women in the west will van
ish the sign language used for centu
ries as a means of communication
among North American Indian tribes.
1t was their universal language, and
Indians having no knowledge of each
others tongue conversed with ease by
gestures This common language was
expressed mostly with the hands. The
educating of the younger Indians in
the English language and their fire.
Quent contact with white men will
hasten the disappearance of this Ian
guage of signs. The old Indians in
western Oklahoma. all of whom still
use the sign language. frequently find
themselves without signs to designate
modern inventions and devices that
have appeared among them. They ask
white men acquainted with the sign
language for help in the making Of
new signs for the new ideas. For
years DR.. A. L. Ellington. druggist
of Watonga. Okla, has assisted the
Cheyennes in this way. Sometimes
Cheyennes from as far away as Can
torment go to Watonga to ask Eding-
ton about a new sign.-KansaS City

KEYSTONE DEMO-
Gratis MEET

Allentown, Pa, June 15.-Politi-
cal interest throughout the state
and even beyond its boundaries is
focused upon the Lyric theatre in
this city, where the state democrat
ic convention is now in session.
There is strong feeling among the
democrats of this state that not for
many years have the chance of elect
ing a democratic governor been so
favorable as this year. There have
been many evidences of growing con-
fidence among the democrats in var
ious parts of the state and the belief
in the possibility in victory at the
next state election has infused more
spirit into the proceedings of the
convention.
In the weeks preceding the con-
vention the party leaders of the
state made strong efforts to patch
up existing differences in the vari-
GUS districts and it is asserted that
they have succeeded in restoring
peace and harmony in the demo-
cratic camp. 1t is possible that the
selection of the ticket may lead to
a spirited fight in the convention,
but no serious difficulties are ex-
pected. The ticket to be named in
cludes candidates for the positions
of governor, lieutenant governor, sec
rotary of internal affairs and state
treasurer.
The leading candidate for the first
place upon the ticket seems to be
C. La Rue Munson of Lycoming. Ar
thur S Dewalt of Lehigh was anOth-
er strong bidder for the bubernator-
ial nomination, but it is believed
that he will be satisfied with the sec
ond place on the ticket. Among the
other candidates for the gubernator-
ial nomination, Berry, Grim and
Guthrie only the first developed con-
siderable strength during the weeks
preceding the convention, but it is
stated that the machine favors Mum
son, and Berry is not willing to ac-
cept any other than the first posi-
ton upon the ticket, For secretary
of internal affairs, Bruce Sterling Of
Lafayette is said to be slated and
for state treasurer Vance Mccormick
of Dauphin. Should Berry develop
unexpected strength in the conven-
ton, the slate may be changed, but
well informed politicians do not ex-
pect such an eventuality.

Health should be more seriously
considered and safeguarded. The
United States government has par
TALLY awakened to the fact and now
compels the publication of certain
ingredients on the packages of medi-
cines that contain them. That was
a step in the right direction, but it
did not reach far enough.
The public should know and be
told about every ingredient of every
medicine they take. In our bust
ness of selling drugs and medicines,
we are compelled to sell what the
public demands, even though some
medicines we sell contain drugs in
furious to the good health of the
person using them.
We have often attempted to over
come this evil, but we were almost
powerless until we became affiliated
with about two thousand other lead
ing druggists in a cooperative enter
prise, known as the United Drug
Company Through this large CO.
operation of druggists, it was pos
sible for experts to travel all over
the country for more than two years
in search of extraordinary remedies.
When they found a remedy that was
perfect they purchased its prescrip-
ton. The druggists themselves also
contributed prescriptions that they
knew to be good through their hav-
ing been continually prescribed and
successfully used by eminent physi-
clans.
In this way about two thousand
different prescriptions were collect
ed These were then carefully class
fled remedies compounded from
them and thoroughly tested by ac-
tual use for a long period under the
supervision of a committee of expert
chemists and physicians, until about
three hundred different remedies
were selected as being the best for
the treatment of certain ailments or
diseases.
We are now able to offer these
remedies of known and proved cura-
tive value to the people of Wenat-

when the sad rews was heard, and
the sad intelligence passed from Lip
to lip, everyone expressing their sor-
row, and the report cast a glocm
over the entire community.
Miss Keown took seriously Ill ex--
aotly two weeks from the time OF
her Death, but for several days her
recovery was thought only a matter
OF time. She had net enjoyed good
health this fall, which was thought
due to over work with her school
duties, and during her rocant severe
illness had rallied several times.
Thursday morning it was seen by the
family that the end was near and
her two brothers cut West were sant
for, and her sister. who is teach

once.
In the untimely Death of this young
lady Hartford has lost one of its
most beloved girls, and one that will

government CLERKS
HIT BY TAFT ORDERS
Department Employees Must Work
Half Hour Longer Each Day
in Interest Of Economy.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 19.-Presi-
dent Taft to-day. authorized The m an
bers of his Cabinet to. increase The
working hours of the various depart
ment clerks in Washington by re-
quiring them to report half an hour
earlier in the morning or to remain
half an hour later in the afternoon.
AS to putting the new order of
things into effect howwor, Mr.. Taft
left the matter entirely 10 the dis
cretion CT the various department
heads. Just what the outsome will be
is problematical at thistime. Some of
the Cabinet Officers are said to ia
vor the longer working day. while
others are not so sure that it would
prove advantageous.
Because of the character of tho
fight that recently. has been wagsd
against adding half an hour to the 81
dent was disposed to put the new or
der In effect at once. One of the ar
guments against requining the clerks
to work until p. m, instead of 4:30
was that 1t would cut than out of go
ing to the baseball games in the
summer. The merchants of the city
made a concerted protest, saying the
later hours would require them 20
keep their shops open until late in
the everdng.
The Cabinet spent some time on che
subject to-day. In some bureaus of
the government 1t was said the lon
ger hours already are being observed
In some of the departments the prob
lem was said to be not so much an
increase in hours as the cutting off
Of unnecessary employees. The whole
inquiry Is In line with the admins
trations policy Of tryindg to bring
greater efficiency and economy into
the government service.
