Temperature Changes.

A notable change in the tempera-
ture occurred Monday after several
spasmodic threats of cold weather,
apparently giving a final farewell to
the everlong hot season. The high
est reading of the thermometer was
72 degrees, and this was registered
at z O'Clock in the morning. After
that hour a steady decline in the
temperature set in, and at 8 o'clock
Monday night the mercury lowered
around 55 degrees, but went down
as low as 33 degrees before morning
causing a heavy frost to form VIII ich
remained on the ground Tuesday
morning untile the rays from old
sol caused it to vanish.
During the latter part of last week
it seemed as if summer-like temper
atures would continue and the pesky
flies and mosquitoes apparently took
a new lease on life, the latter being
noticeable about town in great
swarms. We hope this change IN
the weather has put quietus upon
the nefarious activities of. these
busy little bees"

Distress In the Stomach.

There are many people who have
a distress in the stomach after meals.
It is due to indigestion and easily
remedied by taking one of Chamber
lain's Tablets after meals. Mrs Hen
ry Padghan, Victor, N Y, writes:
For some time | was troubled with
headache and distress in my stomach
after eating, also with constipation.
About six months ago l began TAX.
ing Chamberlain's Tablets. They
regulated the action of my bowels
and the headache and other annoy
ances ceased in short time" Oh
tainable everywhere.

DANCE HALLS CLOSED
 MERRY WH|RL GOES ON

BERLIN, May 15-The police or ders closing all the dance halls in Berlin was not able to dampen the ardor of the dancers, for whom a way to evade the order was promptly found.
 This was the establishing of "danc- ing hours" by hundreds of dancing masters, most of whom were as lit- tie dancing masters as their clients were pupils. To put an end to this the police have ordered that notice of such lessons" be given to the proper police station in advance, and that the names of the pupils" and the hour when they are expected be included in the notice. The "1es- sons" may not last more than two hours, and not more than fifty per sons may be present.

MEETS WITH ACCIDENT
 AND DIES ON TRAIL

Tom Jurack. a prospector well known in interior camps, was found frozen to death on the trail twelve or fifteen miles from Bettles about ten days ago.
 MT. Jurack had been working for A. J. Campbell, driving a wood team at Panama. He started out light to go to the Koyukuk At the first camping place outside of Panama he cut his foot with an axe, and mushers who met him advised him to turn back; but he said the cut was not serious and he could make it all right. The weather was very soft, and 1t is believed the sloppy trail caused blood poisoning to develop in his foot, so that he was unable to help himself when the weather turned cold.

Coincident with, but not necessarily associated with the tenn. perance agitation in England, the rum rations are now served only twice week Warmer weather and the desire to cut down the use of stimu. lants is the explanation. So far as known there has been no protest from the troops. The two drinks a week amount to about half a gill each.

PITTSBURGH AUTO DRIVER
 RACING UNDER SHELL FIRE

GENERAL HEADQUARTERS, Brit ish Army. France. May killarney Oldfeld's old mechanic, Harry Breen, who has swept around the track with him on the Indianapolis speedway and elsewhere in the United States, is now driving a car for a British officer at the front. He says the excitement of being under shell fire has the auto mobile racing game beaten.
 Breen halls from Pittsburgh, Pc, where he was born forty-one years ago of a Danish mother and British father. The British father was the lever that got Breen into the British army. Leaving a prosperous gar age business in Pittsburgh, he has tened to England and enlisted. His qualities of expert mechanic and skill full, ferless driver insured instant ser vice at headquarters, where such men are at a premium. The superb coun- try roads in France. which are kept in a remarkable state of fitness not withstanding the war, gave Breen an opportunity for imagining he is still with Oldfeld on the track trying to break a record.
