There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all other
diseases put together, and for
years it was supposed to be incur
able. Doctors prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment pro-
nounced it iDcurable. Catarrh is a
local disease, greatly influenced
by constitutional conditions and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, isa
constitutional remedy, is taken In
ternally and acts thru the Blood
on the Mucous Surfaces of the
System. One Hundred Dollar re.
ward is offered for any case that
Halls Catarrh Medicine fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testi-

Modest Heroes in Navy Blue.

The navy department. has been in
formed Of the heroism of two sailors
whose work was accomplished before
their names could be learned. During
the recent disastrous fire in Norfolk,
Va, the city called upon the navy yard
authorities for aid. Details of sailors
and first aid men were sent in re-
Spouse. At the height of the fire the
alarm was sent out among the work
ers that some of the city's fremen
were trapped in burning hotel. Two
sailors who Had fought their way into
the building reached the spot where
two firemen were cut off from escape.
The fire fighters were injured and
hardly able to walk. The sailors got
them to window and with their bur-
dens descended an Recovered ladder
to the ground. Having completed their
work, they walked away and were
soon lost among their mates. The
crowd around the burning building
had seen their heroism and applauded
it, but they never learned their names.

CAN WIN BATTLES AT HOME
Housewife Finds Joy In Thought That
She Is Helping to Defeat the
Hated Boche.

cts funny thing" said the Man to
his Wife the other night. "You used
to like cooking, as I remember it.
Breaking new maid in was always a
time Of great trial and tribulation. But
every night come home to dinner you
emerge from the, kitchen almost as
though you hated to leave the master
pieces you have evolved long enough
to greet your Woodworking husband
properly. What's the reason?"
''Well," said the Wife of her Hus-
band, "it's like this. It's a sort of
game. I may not ever see any fighting,
but feel that out there in the kitchen
am helping France, England and, last
but not least, our own blessed boys.
Every time make loaf of rye bread
feel like waving flag. Every time
make C4y allowance stretch little
bit feel as though had won battle.
And so have. I've beaten old General
Highcostaliving. Every time squeeze
War Savings stamp out Of the food

fred shot at the Boches.''
Good girl" and the Man patted his
Wife gently. "Since can't go and we
have no one to give, the best we can
do is to play the game over here as
though we loved it."

Gentle Wild Beasts.

Many persons have the idea that all
wild beasts are vicious and ready to
attack IL man at any time, says we'll
known explorer and big-game hunter,
Mr.. Savage Landor, but this is not the
case. This traveller has seen almost
every species Of wild animals during
his adventurous life, and though he
has been in close contact with many
that have bad reputation for ferocity
and viciousness, he has never been at
tackled. Of course, if they happen to
be wounded or ravenously hungry, or
are first attacked, they are dangerous
and liable to spring upon man. Sim
ilarly, wild beasts in the unnatural
state of captivity in menageries are
usually sullen and not to be trusted.
Mr.. Lander states that he has found all
these savage beasts, except the African
buffalo, quite timid. and almost gentle,
under ordinary, natural conditions.

Brest.Litovsk in History.

Brest-Litovslz, or, to give it it's Pol
Ssh name, Brzesc-Litevsli, is coming
once more into fame as the place of
conference of the Germans with the
Bolsheviki. The name Brest means
"the elm CITY," In a military sense,
this city on the Russian frontiers of
the old Polish kingdom, has undergone
all kinds of vicissitudes. In 1241 it
was laid waste by the Mongols, and
was partially burned, more than a hun
dred years later, by the Teutonic
knights. Another century saw it en-
tirely destroyed by the khan of the
Crimea. The Swedes have captured it,
and the Poles been defeated in the
neighborhood by the Russians, who
held it until the last great drive of the
Germans forced them to retreat along
an immense front. Napoleon, in his
disastrous retreat fir m Moscow, must
have had bitter memories of the city,
into which the pursuing Russians
drove one of his demoralized armies
under Schwarzenberg. ..".

Dogs Death Led to Suicide.

Mrs. Margaret Dugdale, wife Of
Norman Dugdale, ]. p, of Dutton
Manor, near Blackburn, was found
dead with bullet wound in her fore
head in a field near the grave of her
favorite dog, which had been de-
stroyed on account of old age. De-
preston caused by it's loss was sug-
gested at the inquest as the cause Of
her suicide, says Lloyd's News, Lon
don. When found she was grasping a
humane cattle killer, at her feet was
mallet with which she had dis
charged the weapon, and loaded re-
volver was in basket near her She
had fixed a mirror to the fence, and
note pinned to her dress gave direc-
lions for the disposal of her body.
Mr.. Dugdale said he thought the dogs
death, which his wife had taken great
ly to heart, was the cause of the
tragedy, and the jury's verdict was
that Mrs. Dugdale shot herself while
of unsound mind.

Sardine Shortage Expected.

Shortage of sardines this spring is
expected to result from the severity
Of the past winter. Storms and great
masses of floating ice have destroyed
hundreds of sardine weirs, according
to Henry s. Culver, United States con-
sui at New Brunswick, who says in a
commerce report that even the weirs
not wholly destroyed are so badly dam
aged that it may not be possible to
use them this spring.
There will be practically no catch
of sardines this spring on the New
Brunswick coast. The weirs may not
be in condition for use until summer,
and the catch for the year will prob
ably be smaller than in any recent
years. The past winter is said to have
been the most severe the New Bruins
wick country has seen in 40 years.

CAN'T ALWAYS SIZE THEM UP
Former Acquaintance One Meets in
New York Must Not Be Judged
by Their Appearance.

You never can tell who is who when
you meet them in the White Light Sec
ton. The other night Pittsburgher
ran into former Steel Cityite who
was wandering along the big lane. He
wasn't so glad to see him, as he feared
"tOuch," because back home the man
never seemed prosperous. neither was
he down and out. His appearance
hadn't changed since his residence
here.
"How long have you been living in
New York;" asked the visitor.
ooh, about three years." replied the
former resident.
'"rhen you know the town pretty
Well?" was the next query.
The former Pittsburgher admitted
that he did, and gave the visitor some
advice and warning about the big city.
He listened. Then he asked: "What
are you doing here, Bill?"
"Working for bank down town."
replied the other man.
The Pittsburgher didn't press his
chance friend for details. He thought
that Bill had one of those jobs down
town where one starves to death
amidst the wealth of the nation-die of
thirst upon the fountains brink.
won't you take lunch with me?" he
asked, and Bill said he would be de-
lighted-some time.
The next day the Pittsburgher went
to bank down town to see about
check of friend of his which had
gone astray. "You will have to see
the CASHIER" he was told, and there
was the former Steel City man. He
was in an office market private" on
the door and his name in gold on the
side of the desk. He was cashier of
one of the biggest banks in the world.

Tibet Takes Up War Game.

Tibet is engaged in looting expe-
dition, just as she has been for cen
turtles. She has invaded Szechuan, q
border state of China. The only sig
nificance this has during the present
world war, according to the Philadel-
phia Evening Bulletin, is that some
thousand years before Solomon was
born, Tibet boasted Of high state of
civilization, as did her neighbor See
chuan. But ages Of warfare have made
Tibet the domain of half savage ma.
RAIDERS. Tibet boasts the sacred city
of Lhasa. the seat of official Buddhism,
where squalor, art, religion and high
pretensfons are mixed In inextricabls
confusion.

WHAT'S THE UsE7

He saved his money years and years
Laid by tidy sum;
1t was his boast he had no fears
OF dining on a crumb.
Some future day he'd start to spend
And go lively gait;
His toilsome thrift would have an end
He was content to wait
At last. he cried, "I'm ready now
To lead life of ease;
I'll have a fling and keep my vow
Myself alone to please!'
But scarcely had he pressed the cup
OF pleasure to his lips
No chance he had to tilt it up.
He barely got two sips
When Fate set out to prove once more
That she can be unkind,
And hung some Grape beside his door
He left his pelf behind.
