6 WEST NEW CASTLE. Douds had buainees in Sharon, Monday. Lee Fisher of North Front street, is Tisiting in East Brook. Mr. Turner of Mingo Junction, was visiting friends here Monday.

It is reported that Dr. Redmond has purchased a building lot en Court street. To be given away, be ginaing March 1,1895 Bom Tueeday morning to Mr and Mrs Roscoe Dunbar of West Waehmgton street, a daughter. Miss Hattie McClelland of State street, who has been seriously ill with malarial fever, is now improving. There have been two Babcock extinguishers ordered to go with the hook and ladder track.

They are expected here almost any day. Adam Robinson, who has been quite ill for some time with paralysis, has now nearly recovered and was visiting the school yesterday. The team of Joseph McCleary, Harbor street, became frightened and ran away Monday afternoon and considerable excitement. Fortunately no one was injured, and but little damage was done. This warm spell is proving very helpful for the work at the Shenango glase factory.

Some of the Terrors of the Western Prairie Snowstorms. TUe Cabin a Poor Refagre from the Icy Amonff the Herds and Flocks of the Plains.

The blizzard, as the plain vernacular designates the prairie snovr- storm. Is utterly incomprehensible to one who has not experienced it. Generated in the great storm-breeding re- of barren British America, and swept on arctic blasts along the vast level reaches that stretch eastward from the Rocky mountains, with no forest to break Its force, it becomes a demon of the air, second only to the tornado or cyclone in destructiveness. The moisture is ground as millstones, hurled with bullet-like energy over hundreds of miles of level plain, and finally transformed into yeasty sleet by the softening effects of lower latitudes, falls in bleak showers on the ranges of Texas and No-ManV Land. Lack of cheap building material and the brevity of the winter seaiion on the prairies contribute to make the cabin a poor refuge.

When the blizzard comes every resource of fuel is husbanded, and it is faced with a grim determination to see it through, says the Detroit Free Press. But not all are prepared even so well as the settler. Occasionally a belated emigrant, en route either to a chosen claim on the frontier or toward the pleasantly remembered east, where he hopes to find old friends and helpers, is caught by the blast. He may have a tiny stove inside the canvas-topped prairie schooner, but its heat can do little against the power of the storm. Sheltered by the low bluff of some ravine or water course he may weather the dragging hours of suffering, but the chances are that team and driver will be found a ghastly monument to the storm king's strength.

The farmer who has hurried ten or fifteen miles to the nearest village to secure supplies for the impending visitation is often overtaken before reaching his waiting family and perishes on the road, for no matter how well he know's the path, when the blizzard rages his way is as that of the mariner without a compass. At the prairie where the children are gathered from a territory covering many miles in every direction, the blizzard brings terror to the pupils as well as to their parents. Rescue is impossible until the lull comes, and awful possibilities lurk in the bosom of the storm. A Dakota schoolmistress last winter failed to dismiss her scholars in time for them to reach home, and found herself and them prisoners from a approach. A night and a day at least were before her, during which her little charges must be protected.

Deliberately she apportioned the food remaining in the dinner pails, divided the larger boys into squads and put the younger pupils to sleep on the benches. Then through the bitter night she sang, declaimed, told stories, invented games, and kept the frightened children amused and cheered as best she could. The following day passed much the same, but still no abatement of the storm nor any rescue. The second night was dreary indeed. The children cried themselves to sleep, hungry and cold.

With her own hands the teacher broke up desks and blfwjk- board to feed the stove. With the morning came a shout at the door as the settlers shoveled away the snow, and then the plucky girl to w'hom the children owed their lives showed her womanliness and fainted. The loss among stock on the plains by each blizzard is appalling. There is less exposure herds and flocks now than in earlier times, yet every season causes the destruction of thousands of head of cattle and sheep on the rangres and in the unsheltered corrals. Several years ago, during the height of the Texas cattle trade, a blizzard in western Kansas early in December destroyed more than half of 300,000 cattle that were being herded on the open prairie.

At one railway station after the storm, 35,000 hides were shipped; at another, One ranchman found but 225 head alive out of 7,500 that had been grazing before the catastrophe. Several hundred ponies and a score of herders also perished. The blizzard is a permanent feature of the prairie winter. Nothing but a decided climatic revolution can secure to the great trans-Mississippi immunity from its death-bearing presence. Better preparations are yearly being made to withstand its fury, and to protect more generously the dumb animals who suffer equally with their masters.

The signal service is rendering aid in warning communities reached by telegraph of the storm's approach, while the settlers, taught by bitter experience, take vdth each season better precautions, and provide more intelligently for their time of need, which is sure to come. But with all man's care and defense, the blizzard remains unconquered. It is cruel, relentless and unmerciful as some Norse from whose kingdom it comes. It is one of the west's poe- sessions which is wholly and irredeemably detestable. In its forefront is apprehension; at its heig'ht, terror; in its wake, deaolation and death.

How They May Be Done Tp at Home. Lace curtains will not bear rubbing All the work must be done carefully and gently. For two pairs of curtains half fill a large tub with warm water and add to it half a pound of soap, which has been shaved fine and dissolved in two of boiling- water; add also about a gill of household ammonia. Let the curtains soak in this over night. In the morning sop them well in the water and squeeze it all out, but do not wring the curtains.

Put them into another tub of water prepared with soap and ammonia, as on the night before; sop them gently in this water, and then, after squeezing out the water, put them in a tub of dean, warm water. Continue to rinse them in fresh tubs of water untD there Is no trace of soap; next rinse them in water containing bluing. After pressing out all the water possible spread the curtains over sheets on the grass, or if you have no grass put them on the clothes line. When they are dry dip them in hot, thick starch and fasten them in the frame that comes for this purpose. If you have no frame fasten a sheet on a mattress and spread the curtains on this, pinning them in such a manner that they shall be perfectly smooth and have all the pattern of the border brought out.

Place in the sun to dry. If it be desired to have the curtains a light ecru shade, rinse them in weak coffee, and if you want a dark shade use strong coffee. If the curtains be dried on a mattress they must be folded smoothly, the size of the mattress. Lace curtains can be spread two or three thicknesses in the Y. Advertiser.

HEW SIMPLE MOUSE TRAPS. Two Kinds That Cau Be Made and Set la a Minute. To keep the dwelling house, kitchen, pantry, cellar, free from mice is not an especially difficult task. Mice are easily enticed to enter traps, and traps are cheap, or may be made without expense. A simple figure-four trap, baited with cheese or a pumpkin-seed, is as good a trap as is yet devised, and PLATE AND BOWL TRAP.

costs nothing except a time in making and setting it. Another simple affair, quickly made and set on an instant, is a plate and bowl trap. Take a common dinner-plate; cut a little strip of hickory or other hard, pliable wood, say half an inch wide, an eighth of an inch thick and six inches long. Bend it together double, put a piece of cheese between the ends, and tie it thus with wire or string. Then lay it in the plate and place an inverted bowl over it, so that the edge rest on the rounded part of the stick.

Mice like to go on plates. When the cheese is touched and moved, the bowl slips off and down flat upon the plate, shutting the mouse up tightly underneath. Take the trap out, hold it over a barrel or tub of water, and let the mouse come out. It jumps into the water, and can easily be dispatched. Then reset the and Fireside.

A PAIR OF VETERANS. A pair of worn-out veterans Each night 1 put to rest. Two dauntless bold adventurers Worn out by tireless quest. They scurried through the dewy grass To find flower dat Then pattered In the deepest dust That lined the country road. They went to the And caught a splash of mire.

Sailed in the brook, and then were dried Before the kitchen fire, And many a scratch from many a thorn. These playfellows had won Before their time of rest drew near At setting of the sun. Yet fair they are to mother's sight. This bruised and battered pair, And: these wanderers Is mother's whispered prayer. T.

Rhoads, in Good Housekeeping. Do Not Fass so MTach. More than half of a housekeeping woman's time is spent in worrjnng, and a good share of the other half in preparing food, as though the stomach were the immortal part of us. Take one-quarter of the time a woman devotes to making pies, preparing puddings, putting up preserves, baking cakes, and frying, and let her devote it to rest and recreation, and she would not look like a shred of parchment paper at forty. It is the nonessentials that kill us.

The U. P. at this place is still staggering under the crushing load of discourse they have been forced to carry by the arbitrary rulings of Presbytery by not releasing them from the relationship of pastor and people, as it now exists every effort so far to harmonize the discordant elements has only resulted in greater and more bitter diicns- sion. The matter has again been referred to Presbytery and they are requested to meet at an early date at this place to investigate the unhappy situation.

It has been recently stated that not lees than 40,000 physicians are using or indorsing the new discovery for indigestion sold by under the name of Dyspepsia Tablets. Dr.

Tomlinson gives the fallowing reasons why physicians regard this new remedy with so much favor. First, because it is not a secret patent medicine, but a scientific combination of vegetable essences, pure aseptic pepsin, free from animal impurities and of very high power, bismuth and golden seal. It has been tested repeatedly and the experiments have proven that one grain of the digestive principles in Dyspepsia Tablets will digest three thousand times its own weight of le.in meat, oatmeal and similar wholesome The tablets act wholly upon the food taken into the stomach, digesting it thoroughly no matter whether the stomach is in good working order or not, and cu'-e all forms of dyspepsia and stoma.ih troubles on the common sense plan that they nourish the body and the stomach at the same time. Dvspepsja Tablets do not upon the bowels like the old fashioned after-dinner pills, nor are they an artificial stimulant like nor are they in any way similar to so called pre-digested foods, which consist of 85 per cent, of the stufi' that cheap-candies are made from, but Dyspepsia Tablets do what none of these do, they act wholly upon the eaten and digest it completely and the cure of indigestion is an assured fact, because the food being promptly digested, it cannot lie for hours in the stomach, fermenting, decaying, fining the system with the germs of disease, but is nourishing and invigorating not only the body and brain, but the stomach itself, aa well. The Tablets are absolutely harmless and c-an given and are given with benefit to little children and infants suffering from indigestion, as shown above they contain no mineral poisons, nor anything in any way injurious.

Dr. Wuerth says that he has noticed in many cases that the tablets not only cured the indigestion, but that a very noticeable increase of fiesh resulted where people who used the tablets were thin and run down in flesh before taking them, and it is not at all surprising that such should be the ease when it is remembered ti at most people are thin because their stomachs are out of order, and when perfect digestion is brought back an increase of flesh is the natural accom pani ment. Within the last six months many thousand cases of stomach trouble and dyspepsia have been cured by Dyspepsia Tablets and their convenience and popularity is such that every where are now eelling them, the price is 50 cents per package and if your druggist has not yet ordered them he will get them for you from his wholesaler they are manufactured by Stuart Co, Marshall, Mich, Your druggist, if he is honest, will tell you that Dyspepsia Tablets is the only preparation now before the public recommended and designed solely for the cure of indigestion and stomach troubles, no other claims are made for it, it is not claimeii to be a cure-all.
