 Charles H. Bristol died at his home on North street. MT. Bristol who was a native of this town and a lifelong resident. was seventy years of age. He had enjoyed excellent health till about a year ago when disease which it was impossible to overcome began to manifest itself and he failed stead fly but was about until short time ago, and only a few of his friends knew of his serious condition. He was widely known having for many years been connected with the livery busI- ness and since giving up this connec- tion he has not been regularly en- gagged in any business. He is survived by his wife, one brother, Edison Bris- tol and one son, H. H. Bristol. The funeral services was held at 2:30 o'clock Friday afternoon.
 The long continued damp weattl er and heavy rains had so soaked the lawns about St. Peters church that it was not thought safe to set up any tent for use at the fair which the ladies of the parish had planned to hold and so this event took place in the parish house. Tables and booths were arranged there and various ar ticles which had been prepared for the sale and the food, which had been cooked were placed on exhibition and sold. Weather conditions improved during the day and were very much better yesterday afternoon than they have been for quite some time and the attendance at this sale was most satisfactory with the result that the affair was a grand success some four hundred dollars being taken in dur ing the afternoon. While the exact receipts of the fair could not be given last evening, it is thought that they will be not far from the four hundred dollar mark.

interval between receiving the bite
and that of showing the first symp-
tom varies considerably. The poison
may show up in seven days or it may
lie dormant for several months or
even year. The interval depends
on the general condition of the dog
bitten, the position and size of the
wound, and the amount of saliva that
gets into the wound"
How to Treat Wound.
As to first aid treatment for per-
sons bitten by mad dogs, DR.. Neal
said, "If child has been bitten by a
dog that is known or supposed to be
mad, bleeding from the wound should
be encouraged and the wound opened
freely. The first dose Of the Pasteur
treatment should be given as soon as
possible, and the head of the animal
sent to the State laboratory for exam
ination. If a positive result is Sc
cured from the examination, the
treatment of course should be con-
tinued. This treatment is furnished
free by the State.

The suit brought by Henry Ford
against the Chicago Tribune throws
brilliant light on a past mystery
How a man of Mr.. FOrd's business
ability could finance such a QuiXotic
undertaking as the ''peace" ship trip
has puzzled every observer.
We now learn that Mr.. Ford was
bitten by a rattle brain snake He has
been an unwilling subscriber to the
Socialist party platform. He has new
er been a malevolent idealist, plotting
in favor of the German conquest of
the world, but he has been and is, as he
says, an ignorant idealist Igno-
rance does not excuse breach of the
laws of common sense However, this
attitude of mind would not have I'M
fitted him for a seat in the senate, be-
cause there are many senators there
in opposition to the League of Nations,
preparedness, etc, who seem to have
broken those laws over and over again
without having endangered their seats.

LAUGHED AT TIMES PASSAGE
Blue Delft Saucer, Long Sunk in
Ocean, Benefited by Century
Immersion in Ocean.

The act of a fishing smack off Eye
mouth, Berwickshire, England, brought
to the top of the sea recently long
dead memory. A blue Delft saucer,
deeply incrusted with barnacles, lay
among the Hopping fish in the net, and
1T bore a picture of one of the old
British coasting and sailing vessels,
with the words ECLIPSE, Ldn. and
Edinboro, Shipping Coy"
Now, the Eclipse was lost at sea
106 years ago. No one survived, no
bodies were thrown up, no wreckage
definitely identified with the lost
schooner was ever washed against
known shores.
Yet, over a century later, china
saucer is recovered! It's blue, accord
ing to reports, had taken on won
derfully deep shade, tinged with
green, and was very beautiful.
The London and Edinburgh Ship
ping company bought the relic for
about $50 of our money and gave that
sum to the British Red Cross. The
saucer was sent to the British
museum.

Shark Meat Is Tasty.

Shark meat is delicate in flavor and
texture, and sharks are plentiful in
certain parts Of Florida, but the fish
ermen do not catch them because they
are not salable.
The home demonstration agent Of
Monroe county, Florida, decided last
winter on an effort to establish in
favor this fish now under the ban. At
her request a fisherman caught one.
but warned her that no one would eat
it. Undismayed, she invited a large
company Of women to a home econom-
les luncheon, at which was served a
fish salad.
When all had tasted the salad she
asked for vote as to how many liked
and wanted the recipe. Without ex-
ception the women voted their hearty
approval, and thus proved to them
selves that the prejudice was without
foundation.-Clevela Plain Dealer.

"lmka."

"Imka" is the name by which the
Y. NJ. G. A. is known in Czecho-Slo-
vakia, for "Imka" is the reasonable
pronunciation of those four letters In
the language of the mid-European
land. The Imka is very popular. When
the republic of CZecho-Slovakia was
established, its citizens who had re-
turned from fighting with the allies
urged that the Imka, with its canteens,
hut service, athletics and recreation, be
invited to come with them. The invi-
tation was given and now the Imka
has been developed on an army basis
with centers In ten towns and is con-
templating establishing a center in the
famous coal mine region of Teschen,
which is the bone of contention be-
tween the new republic and the Poles.
AS this new republic is said to hold
the worlds record for literacy only
l per cent being unable to read or
write, the American "Y" secretaries
find splendid cooperation in their ac-
tivities.
