being lowered into the mine with
fourteen men exploded, wrecking the
descending carriage and droppine
the victims to the bottom Of the
shaft. The one man who escaped
alive Is Martin Belinski, a driver
boss.
The accident occurred when the
men were going to work and at a
time when the entrance to the mine
was crowded with men waiting to be
lowered to the various levels. The
carriage had descended to about 100
feet from the bottom Of the shaft
when from some unknown cause to
dynamite exploded. The case was
ripped to pieces and all the men
dropped into the mine refuse at the
bottom Of the shaft.
The escape Of the driver boss is
considered almost miraculous. Near

and some were torn to pieces, show
ing that they were instantly killed
by the explosion.
Among the victims was Thomas
Thomas, Of West Scranton, a veteran
miner, who was so decrepit that he
was helped into the carriage by one

A noted specialist claims that
dark rings or circles under the eyes,
especially with women. usually comes
from clogged kidneys and torpid
liver. These organs become weak
and inactive as result of too much
meat and lack of outdoor exercise.
The waste and poisons are absorbed
by the blood, bringing on sallow
complexion, dark rings under the
eyes, pimples, blotches and numerous
other skin and blood disorders.
He advises women and girls to eat
less meat and more fruit and vegeta-
bles and drink plenty Of water. This
authority says that in most cases
eyaporated mineral water in powder
form will overcome these distressing
ailments.
Take two teaspoonfuls Of this pow
der in a glass of water two or three
times a week. Just after you get up
in the morning, and you will have a
better complexion. brighter eyes,
clear brain and general good health.

NEW COMMAND.
Is Given aSParkersburger Who
is in the United States
Navy Service.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. TO-
Lieutenant Bernie H. Camden, for
merly of Parkersburg, now command
ing the revenue cutter Window, ar
rived at Baltimore a few days ago
from Galveston. The Window has
been ordered to take the place of the
Apache in winter cruising work on the
Chesapeake bay and its tributaries,
While the Apache is undergoing re-
pairs, and will take up her duties at
once.
Lieutenant Camden was in WASH
ington this week in conference with
the heads Of the service in regard to
the new duties of his command. It
will probably be a month before the
work on the Apache is completed and
during that time the Window Will
cruise over Chesapeake bay ready to
give aid to any small craft in service
on 1t, that may be in trouble through
stress of the weather, stranding or
other causes.
The assistance given these small
craft OF the bay by. the government
during. the winter season is of the
greatest value to- bay navigators, who
are unfortunate enough to meet with
disaster to their vessels and are too
poor to pay wrecking concerns to
help them out OF their trouble. On
the completion OF repairs on the
Apache, Lieutenant Camden has been
ordered to report at Arundel Cove,
where the Window will undergo ex-
tensive repairs.

It does not require genius to determine what the effect would be. The rural de- livery was never intended to benefit the wholesale merchant, and they should not be permitted to impair or destroy either of these agncies for good to the common people in order to increase their profits at the expense of all the people.
 "I believe the time has come when the farmers and those who use the rural de- livery service must decide between a continuance of that service in it's pres ent efficiency and the parcels post should the weight limit be extended beyond 90 pounds.

 To Prevent Further Increase
 "Tt must not be forgotten that the amendment proposed by the committee does not in any manner affect present regulations governing parcels post.

In foreign countries where the weight limit for parcels post is above Il pounds they are carried on govern ment owned railroads and by govern ment owned express on magnificent dirt roads. Besides the parcels post is not operated in connection with the mail service. They are separate and distinct.

JUAN1TA
A Love Song of 50 Years Ago.

In the soft twilight. or as the deeper shadows gather, the song of "Juanita" always seems to soothe. The gifted au- thoress of this popular song was Mrs. Norton. granddaughter of the famous Richard Brinsley Sheridan, born in Eng land in 1S0S. She married young but it proved an unhappy union, and a di- vorce suit followed, in which the com poser of "JYanita' vindicated herself and led in crusade against the almost bar barrie disabilities which English law and practice then imposed upon an English wife. becoming virtually the founder of the militant suffrage movement in Eng land today. Her song- of "Bingen on the Rhine and 'Juanita" were the most popular. She died in 1877 and lived to hear the echoes of her plaintive "Juani- ta' come to her from nearly every civ ilized country in the world.
 This celebrated melody is to be found in Heart Songs'-the unrivaled song collection now placed before its readers by this paper-at practically the cost of printing. The coupon elsewhere in to- days issue explains the generous offer.
