Rheumatic
Agony
NOW EASILY ENDED
Says Mr.. James H. Allen of Rochester,
NJ. Y.

1t does not matter to me whether
you are disabled with cursed rheuma-
tism or have only occasional twinges.
| know that Allenrhu, my own discov-
cry, will stop the agony, do away with
the gnawing pains and reduce the
swollen joints.
l know it will dissolve the uric acid
deposits that have become deeply i'm
bedded in joints and muscles and
quickly drive every trace of rheuma-
tism from your body. | know this be-
cause l was crippled for years and
many times was unable to work, and
Allenrhu made a well, robust, healthy
man of me.
| know because since | cured N.Y.
self, hundreds have taken Allenrhu
and speedily rid themselves of this
agonizing disease.
No matter how severe your case, l
urge you to put your faith in the pre-
scription hat it took me years to per-
fect-a prescription that made a new
man of ME after doctors tried and
failed.
Allenrhu is no laggard; it starts
right in at once; it gets into the
blood, searches out the poisonous uric
acid deposit and in two days starts to
drive the concentrated impurities that
aus rheumatism out of the body
through the natural channels.
Through the columns of this news
paper, l authorize every druggist to
guarantee one full pint bottle in every
instance.

Deeper Channel Wanted.
A public meeting will be held in the
Absecon Council Chamber some time
next month, which should be Of vital
interest to all baymen from here TO
Leeds Point. Efforts have been made
by a number OF people residing along
Shore road and Leeds Point road to
have the Government deepen Oyster
Creek. The baymen point out the fact
that this creek is the only access to
Great Bay in these parts, unless going
to Naeot Greek, and that great benefit
could be derived if the Government
would take such action. A petition
has been circulated and the greater
portion of the population Of this part
of the county has signed it. The Pc
tition seems TO have received some
degree of attention, as an engineer
visited this city. a short while ago,
and looked over the situation.

ODD PRINCIPLE OF HEREDITY
Facts Only Are Known, and Causes OF
Popularity Have Not Been Salts
factorily Explained.

One of the most striking instances
OF the Mendellan principle of heredlty
is that which is exhibited by the breed
ing properties OF the Andalusian fowl,
an exchange states. The blue Andalu-
sian fowl owes its popularity with the
public, and its interest to the student
of heredity. to its color. This is a
slaty biue-gray. If two birds of this
strain are mated. 1t is found that they
do not breed true. Besides the blue
birds which hatch out, there will also
be certain number Of blacks. and
Of whites. with occasional black points.
II the blues thus produced are mated
the odd-colored ones will again appear
among their offspring, and no amount
of breeding from the blues alone will
rid them of the black and white blood
which will crop out at every genera
tlon, although blue birds only are
mated every time.
The principles Involved are called
the Mendelian principles, after their
discoverer, Gregor Johann Mendel, alb
bot Of a monastery at Brunn. Austria
after eight years OF patient expert
menting in his clolster garden with
plants. chiefly edible peas.

Making Fiowors smsll Stronger.

The perfume Of flowers is greatly in.
creased by,a process Invented by Pro
fessor Daniel OF Rennes. France. He
explained Il TO the Academy OF Science
in Paris BY taking two plants OF the
same species and grating one on tie,
other-notably wormwood on a
chrysanthemum--he found not only,
the grated wormwood developed re-
Jnarsahly. but its flowers gave forth \
perfume much more powerful than
that Of the original plant. . Moreover.
the chrysantheinum had given 10 the
wormwDod flower somahing Of its own
perlume. NJ Daniel collected the
seeds Of. the grated wormwood and
the following year obtained from them
very line plants. They had this notable
festure-whlie the flowers OF some Of
the plputS emitted perfume similar

were absolutely without odor

indian mail runners fear nothing but
ghosts in the Jungle, but not year

toll Of runners in the execution OF
their duty. 1t might be tiger a
swollen river, an avalanche in the

work goes on just the same; the mail

said Geoffrey Rothe Clarke, director
general of posts and telegraphs in In

of the British Royal Society of Arts
with the runners, Mr.. Clarke stated
the mail was fetish they would pro-
tect at all costs. For wild beasts
floods and dangers of all kinds they
would not turn aside. But they would
go miles out OF their way. even when
carrying the precious mails, to avoid
an evil spirit whom they suspected OF

HARD TO EXPLAIN SYMBOLS
Cryptic Markings Discovered in An
cient English Hotel Have Proved
Puzzle to the Scientists.

Who were the writer's Of the cryptic
symbols which have been discovered
on the walls of the ancient Star hotel
at Yarmouth, England?
There are about 100 of the signs.
They are all in one room, and for
hundreds of years they have been hid
den by wallpaper. Local antiquarians
are puzzled by the designs, which in
clude signs of the Zodiac, a sextant
pointing to cross surmounting a
burning lamp, an Egyptian cline Of
life" figures that resemble bear, a
wyvern and toad. while predominant
ing over all are the triangle, the arc
and the circle.
An authority at the British museum
could offer no clue to the origin of the
symbols, and for the want of better
explanation, local people are advanc~
ing the theory that in the room in
which they appear was once the meet
ing place of number of Yarmouth
men, banded together to overthrow
the authority Of the ClnQue Ports over
the local fishing industry.
This episode in the history of the
east coast dates back to about 1000,
when the inn was comparatively new
building. and it may be that the men,
berS of their band, TO preserve the
secrecy of their identity. We're known
by "totems," which they inscribed up
