NEW CASTLE. Oct So.--Much ln--
teresr centres in the coming meeting
OF City Council when the question Of
granting a franchise to the Whining
ton and Southern Traction Company
will be considered Every one here
wants Dobbinsville to have the cars
but they have objections to the com
pany because It has ignored City
Councils orders and so far has re-
fused to put conductor on one car
running through the city. Residents
of Shawtown and New Castle Central
are unable to buy the low rate tickets
to the steel plants, but must pay full
fare. During August the company
sold books of tickets good until used
When these tickets were offered to the
conductors yesterday and today the
tickets were refused. Then the parties
refused to pay a cash fare and were
told they could ride without paying
fare and their names will be turned in
to the company. For these reasons
many citizens think Council should
grant the company no more favors.

GIN For TIE KIDNEYS.

Gin is one Of the Oldest known
remedies for kidney and bladder trou-
bles, especially when used I'm the
following formula: six ounces good
pure gin; half ounce fluid extract
Buchu; half ounce Murax compound. "
Any druggist can supply OF mix these
ingredients. Shake well each time

spoonfuls after meals and at bed time.
This is the most effective remedy

EVIDENTLY SHE WAS ANNOYED
Good Wife's Punishment, Intended for

to RevlvaIist.

A popular revivalist had been hold
ing services at town In Mississippi
when heavy rain came on, and he ac-
cepted an invitation to pass the night
at the house of one of the towns
men. Observing the preachers
drenched clothing, the host brought
out a suit of his own and sent his
guest upstairs to don It,
The good man had made the change
and was on his way back to the sit
ting room, when the woman of the
house came out Of another room, hold
ing in her hands the big family Bible,
out of which the minister was to be
invited to read a chapter before the
family went to bed
She was not, however, in very
amiable frame of mind, for careful
housewives are likely to be put out of
sorts by the advent of unexpected
company Seeing the revivalist in his
borrowed garments, she mistook him
for her husband, and as he passed in
front of her she lifted the book and
brought 1t down sharply on his head.
"There!" she exclaimed. Take that
for asking him to stay all night!"-

To Laugh at tuberculosis.

Much ignorance prevails among the
unfortunate victims Of tuberculosis
and families of these unfortuuates, ac-
cording to the Los Angeles Herald.
For such as these the words spoken
by Adolphus Knopf should be chiseled
In imperishable granite. Or, better
still, they should be published in ev-
cry public print, viz: There is no
such thing as hereditary tuberculosis.
The remedy is simple and all should
know it. 1t is one Of the most easily
durable of all the chronic infectious
diseases. You can cure consumption
by the unstinted use of Gods good
fresh air, twenty-four hours in twenty
four, plenty of good food and plenty
of good water, inside and out You
all know that cleanliness is next to
godliness. Children should get all
the fresh air possible. They should
sleep and play in the open air. They
should attend open-air schools"

PRERoeATIvE OF HER SEX
Bride Had But Exercised Recognized
Privilege That ls Universally
Granted.

A young couple had been courting
for several years and the young man
seemed to be in no hurry to marry,
Finally, one day, he said:
sal, / Gamma marry thee"
"How's that?" asked she.
i've changed my mind" said he.
well, I'll tell thee what we'll do
said she. IF folks know that It's
thee as has given me up | shanna be
able to get another chap; but If they
think I've given thee up / can get all

and when the wedding day comes the
parson will say to thee: wilt thou
have this woman to be thy welded
wife? and thou must say: I will And
when he says to me: wilt thou have
thisman to be thy welded husband? !?
l shall say: I winna.'"
The day came, and when the minis
ter asked the important question the
man answered: II will"
Then the parson' said to the wom-
an: wilt thou have this man to be
thy welded husband?" and she said:

DYING by Organs.

II has been discovered that II a
human being dies after an ordinary
illness and not a violent death he
does not die all over and all at once.
He may have a diseased liver, heart
or lung, and this may be the cause
of his death; but 1t has been found
that If the diseased organ could have
been replaced by a healthy one life
might have been maintained indefi-
nitely This is no imagination or
speculation. 1t has been confirmed
by the most careful experiments by
the ablest medical scientists in the
ountry-Leslie's Weekly.

STRONGER THAN MEAT
A Judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts.

A gentleman who has acquired ju-
dicial turn of mind from experience
on the bench out in the Sunflower
State writes a carefully considered
opinion as to the value Of Grape-Nuts
as food. He says:
"For the past years Grape-Nuts
has been a prominent feature in our
bill of fare.
"The crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indis-
pensable necessity in my familys
everyday life.
1T has proved to be most healthful
and beneficial, and has enabled us to
practically abolish pastry and pies
from our table, for the children prefer
Grape-Nuts, and do not crave rich and
unwholesome food.
"Grape-Nuts keeps us all In perfect
physical condition-as a preventive OF
disease it is beyond value. have been
particularly impressed by the benei-
cial effects of Grape-Nuts when used
by ladies who are troubled with face
blemishes, skin eruptions, etc. 1t
clears up the complexion wonderfully.
"As to its nutritive qualities, my ex-
perience is that one small dish OF
Grape-Nuts is superior to a pound OF
meat for breakfast, which is an impor-
tant consideration for anyone. 1t sat
Isles the appetite and strengthens the
power of resisting fatigue, while its
use involves none of the disagreeable
consequences that sometimes follow
a meat breakfast" Name given by

This condition kept getting worse and
