AN AUTOMOBILE
WAS DAMAGED

DIR, E. H Mendenhan. of South Sew.
enth street, was the victim OF a pecu-
liar accident Sunday morning at North
Tenth and Elm streets He was driv-
ing in his automobile when suddenly
smoke began to curl from beneath the
hood of the machine. He stopped the
car and raised the hood. A sheet OF
flame flared out and he stepped back
after turning the gasoline of from the
engine and prepared TO watch his auto
burn up However, stationmaster May
hew on duty at the Pennsylvania depot
saw the trouble and sent a man with a
Babcock extinguisher to the doctors
assistance. The Babcock extinguished
the fire at once. The machine refused
TO start again and was towed to a gar
age, where il will undergo repairs. The
damage is believed to be slight. The
car had been out of the shop but two
days after undergoing repairs.

HEART NEEDS ESPECIAL CARE
Strain on the Vital Organ Must Be
Avoided When Middle Life Has
Been Passed.

THE death by heart failure of Gen.
Frederick D. Grant," says the Medical
Record, emphasizes the repeated
warnings Of the medical profession
that we should treat a senile heart
with respect. AS far as we know
there is not the slightest disagreement
on this one pOint-every human heart
over fifty, and perhaps over forty-five,
cannot stand much internal pressure
without being ruined or at least dam
aged. A very slight man may go
through severe muscular exertion with
but little damage, but heavy man,
like the general, places on the heart
and arteries hydrostatic pressure be-
yond the safety point, and it never re-
covers.
1.-THE pitiful feature of this deplor-
able death is the fact that Gen.
Grant in his last annual report had
called attention to the opinion Of life
insurance examiners tina: army Off
GERS were becoming poor risks on &C
count of the increasing strain on their
profession. 1t is safe to predict more
deaths like Gen. Grants, unless we
treat the heart of a man over forty
five with more gentleness.

THE SAFE LAXATIVE
FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE

Most elderly people are more or
less troubled with chronic, per-
sistent constipation, due largely to
lack Of sufficient exercise. They ex-
perience difficulty in digesting even
light food, with consequent belching
OF stomach gases, drowsiness after
eating, headache and feeling Of lassi-
tude and general discomfort
Doctors advise against cathartics and
violent purgatives of every kind, rec.
ommending mild, gentle laxative
tonic, like DR.. CaldweIl's Syrup Pepsin,
to effect relief without disturbing the
entire system.
DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the
perfect laxative, easy in action, GER
tain in effect and, withal, pleasant to
the taste. Il possesses tonic proper
ties that strengthen the stomach, liver
and bowels and IS remedy that has
been for years the great standby in
thousands of families, and should be
In every family medicine chest. 1t is
equally as valuable for children as for
older people
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in SOC and $I.OO
bottles. If you have never tried it
send your name and address to DR.. w.
B. Caldwell, POI Washington St, Mon
ticello, Ill, and he will be very glad to
send a sample bottle for trial,

the services of an usher Marie re-
marked that it would be some time
before they could be shown to their
seats.
Here is an usher!" exclaimed the
elder woman, handing her coupons to
a tall, finely-formed man with dark,
eager eyes and a resolute mouth.
He courteously received the bits OF
pasteboard, looked at them with
puzzled pucker on his brow and after
a momentary hesitation said: This
way, pleased"
He showed them to two Of the most
desirable seats in tie house and in
formed them that there seemed to be
some mistake in the tickets, but he
thought these seats were better than
the ones they had reserved.
Mrs Warburton agreed that they
were. and as he was leaving she re-
minded him that they had no pro.
grams. He apologized for the over
sight and fetched them some.
He looks rather unusual for an
usher" said Marie when he had again
left them.
In these little towns" explained
her mother, things are so different.

light"
He doesn't look like a society
man." ruminated Marie.
After the curtain rose the usher re-

The Elephant Variety, Once Common,
Now Said to Be Almost
Extinct.

One of the noteworthy results OF

Of a band of elephant seals. The ex-
petition was commanded by DIT.

which were sent to the New York

When Mrs. Warburton and her
daughter Marie reached the little
western city where they were to
change cars, and found that they had
missed connections, thus necessitating
spending the night in strange place,
they accepted the situation with a
tranquility that bespoke an extensive
acquaintance with the fate of travel
ers.
1t was 7:30 O'Clock when they regis
tered at the hotel. They had already
dlned on the train, and as it was too
early to go to bed, Marie proposed
the theater, as the clerk informed
them that there was good play
booked for that night.
What child you are, Marie,
laughed her mother, gazing fondly at
her daughter. Most girls that have
been out five years and have had sea-
sons of grand opera and the best
drama would be bored at the prospect
of provincial theater."
THAT is just why 1t won't bore me, p
argued Marie; because it will really
be such a novelty. Do you know L
have never been in as small city as
this? Sometimes | think" she con-
tinued wistfully, that people in the
towns have a more interesting, init
mate sort of life"
Her mother was too much engaged
in freshening up her toilet to follow
her daughters train Of philosophy, so
Marie unused meditatively on life in
general and her own life in particular.
Beautiful in face and form, charm
Ing and attractive in manner, she had
been courted and wooed but not won,
because there still fingered an ideal
lover in the fancy of the young girl,
and the suitors IN her train were all
Of the one society type.
IF | could only meet a mana
mans mani" she thought. Il still
maintain my faith In the existence OF
such a man--somewhere, and that /
shall find him-somewhere 1t might
happen even in little provincial town
like this"
The lobby of the little theater was
crowded, and as they stood awaiting

pensable on account of the fact that
In the ordinary pen there are from
six to II females to one male. If trap
nests are used, and there are as many
as there are females in the pen, it is
possible to distinguish each hens
eggs, while if the trap nests are not
used, this is impossible.
The use of trap nests goes far to
prevent the hens forming the habit of
egg-eating. They are likely to form
this habit if kept in limited quarters.
If SO kept, they are probably not given
the very best food, and probably not
enough of it, especially animal food.
The accompanying drawings Of g.
bank Of trap nests are self-explana-
tory. The nests are built without any
top or bottom. The hen enters through
the back Of the nest, brushing under
the hanging wire, which releases the
door She then passes on to the nest
compartment toward the front end
To inspect the nest, and to remove
the hen, ascertain her number, and Sc
cure the eggs, the front door is sim
ply unbuttoned, and let down. 1t will
be noticed that the two doors are fas-
tened together with a cord, SO that
when the front door is let down, the
trap is automatically set again. The
hen will find it difficult to leave
through the back door at this time, as
the hanging wire permits her to go
one way only These are so simple
that in making them in almost any
quantity, the material should not cost
over Is cents, at most, per trap nest.
