GRANDMOTHERS LICEN SAGE TEA It la easier to preserve the color or the hair than to restore it, although it is possible to do both.

Our grandmothers understood the secret. They made a "sage tea," and their dark, glossy hair long after middle life was due to. this fact. Our mothers have gray hairs before they are fifty, but they are beginning to appreciate the wisdom of. our grandmothers using "sage tea" for their hair and are fast following suit.

The present generation hay the advantage of the past in that it can get a ready-to-use preparation called Wyeth's Sage, and. Sulphur Hair Remedy. As a scalp tonic and color restorer this paration is vastly superior to the ordinary "sage tea" made by our grandmothers. The growth beauty of the hair depend on a healthy condition of the scalp. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy quickly kills the dandruff germs which rob the hair of its life, color and lustre, makes the scalp clean and healthy, gives the hair strength, color and beauty, and makes it grow.

CERTAIN RESULTS. Many a P'ittston Citizen Knows How Sare They Are. Nothing uncertain about the work of Doan's Kidney Pills in Pittston. There is plenty of positive proof of this in the testimony of citizens. Such evidence should convince the most skeptical doubter.

Read the following statement: Frank Kennedy, 17 Center street. Pittaton, says: "For some time I suffered severely from kidney trouble. My back was lame and painful and I was caused a great deal of annovance by irregular passages of the kidney secretions. I finally learned of Roan's Kidney Pills and procuring a supply I. began their use.

They gave me prompt relief and on several occasiors since then when hard work has brought a return of my trouble, they have always given a satisfactory results." (Statement given April 25. 1904.)

FAY BELL TELEPHONE BUILDING WILL BE OCCUPIED SOON; PLANS OF THE COMPANY The new building of the Bell Telephone on Charles street, is practically completed. Only some finishing touches on the interior remain to be done.

'At the present time the floors have been loaded with a large quantity of sand, the weight of which is about the same as that of the heavy apparatus to be installed in the building. This is being done as a test, not of the strength of the building, but rather of the foundation, the building having been erected on land that was filled in with culm and slate from nearby openings many years ago, when it was owned by the Pennsylvania Coal Co. The building itself is one of the most substantial in this section. It is perhaps the only absolutely fireproof business building in the central part of the city. It is of brick and reinforced concrete construction.

Not a single piece of wood has been used in the building. The walls concrete and brick. floors are of reinforced concrete. The stairway leading to the second floor will be of steel. The window frames are of pressed steel and the window panes are of wired glass.

There is absolutely nothing of an inflammable character about the place. It is understood that the partitions to be placed on the floors: will be of metal. we service The new about the building middle will be of the placed sum- in mer. All of the mechanical and operating departments will be located in the new building, but the manager's headquarters and business office will continue on the ground floor of the Lamb building, on Water street, in connection with the office of Western Union Telegraph Co. It is expected that a rearrangement of the telephone and telegraph equipment in the Lamb storeroom will be made, plans for which are now being considered.

The same interests now control the Bell and Western Union companies, and Manager Wandel, of the Pittston branch of the Bell was recently given charge of the business affairs of the Western Union Co. here, Pittston being the second station in Pennsylvania where the telegraph and telephone management is combined.

HUGHESTOWN HOSE CO. TO OPEN NEW HOSE HOUSE ably be carried to successful termination for the borough to install an automatic fire alarm system. It is the expectation of the company to place a petition with the borough council to make the needed improvement and indications are that the project will meet with the approval of the councilmen and be speedily made. Although organized, the company had no equipment. The borough had water supply, of course, and fire plugs had been installed years before.

The Pennsylvania Coal Co. generously donated 1,000 feet of hose and contributions from public spirited citizens and company members furnished the money for a hose wagon. Since the organization of the company, there have been five fires in the borough and the company has done effective service of inestimable value. The company is at present in excellent circumstances and the equipment has been added to until now it is sufficiently complete. Previously, the company has had the use of the team of horses of William Renfer also those of the Pennsylvania Coal from the No.

9 colliery. Arrangements have now been made whereby the coal company permits one of its teams to be quartered at the hose house during the nights. Horses are easily accessible during the day time. About a- year ago the move for the new hose house was set on foot. Previously at the equipment had been quartered the borough building, but need was expressed for special quarters and a comfortable home for the company.

There was a general putting shoulders; to the wheel on the part of the members and Hughestown citizens. Pittston also is said to have contributed to the building fund very generously. A building committee was appointed, composed of Edward Schmaltz, Frank Stahl, William and Jacob Broadheck, Henry Smith, Jacob Valerius, William Renter, William Werts, W. G. Carichner, Timothy Bedford, and Henry Burkel.

The contract was soon afterward let and the building is now fully completed. It is entirely adaptable to its purposes and. considering the amount of energy and sacrifice SEE has cost Hughestown citizens, it is a lasting monument to their civic pride. The thanks of the company are given to the Pennsylvania Coal Co. for furnishing the lot on which the building stands.

The opening of the new home of the hose company is an auspicious event and will be suitably celebrated. Tomorrow the new building will be open during the afternoon and friends and members of the company are invited to inspect it. On Monday afternoon the formal opening will be held with a matinee dance. During the ev- Continued from Page 1. ening there will be a big ball at which a great is looked and ample arrangements have been made to provide an enjoyable time for everyone who attends.

A competent and large orchestra will play a choice score of dance selections. W. H. Werts, outside foreman at the No. 9 colliery, is the energetic foreman of the Hughestown Hose Co.

He has been at the head of the building project and has been a factor in bringing the company up to its present effective state. The present officers of the Hughestown Hose Company, to whom no small amount of credit is due, as well as to the building committee, are: President. W. G. Carichner; vice president, W.

Brodbeck; financial retary, J. J. Schall, recording secretary, J. E. Schmaltz; treasurer, liam Renter; foreman, J.

Even the cows lay down close together and close to their human friends. They succeeded in reaching Sussex county, New Jersey, where they remained until 1786. Eleazer was then 22 years old. They settled in Lackawanna upon a large farm which they purchased under the Connecticut Title, but as this was disallowed by Pennsylvania, they were compelled to again pay for it, this time to Pennsylvania, in order to have legal title. This Impoverished them, of course.

Three years later, Eleazer married. Shortly after his marriage, he was obliged to sell ox team. to make a payment on his land. This left hin: witnout means to carry on his farm and make improvements. He had wheat and crops in the ground, but he could not sell them, for there was no money in the country to buy with.

He was in great trouble, when a man named Chamberlain came to him and offered him a horse it he would go after it, and then build a house for him afterward. This wag a providential prospect of relief and he thankfully accepted the terms. The horse was 25 or 30 miles away, but he set out to walk the distance. His way lay through the deep. dark forest which covered the land except where small clearings had been made by settlers.

He had no shoes and path wag rough. Stones and roots cut and bruised his bare feet. After a day's travel he was about to lie down exhausted under some pine trees, when the bark of a dog attracted his attention. He followed the sound and came to a small cabin with a fire, where he rested for the night. At break of day he rose and attempted to g0 on, but his cut and swollen feet were so sore they refused to bear his weight.

He must go on, yet how could he? He crawled to a clearing, get two walking sticks and with these he hobbled on until hig feet became limber enough to walk on them. After great suffering, ne finally got the horse, rode home and later built the house which lasted for many year.s When very old. he wept like a child as he recounted the sufferings which he had borne in his young manhood. "Oh my son!" he exclaimed, "You don't know, and I cannot tell you the hardships we endured." To extreme age he retained much of his early vigor. He was no ordinary He had a logical mind.

strong, good sense and Christian principle. He was a temperance advo. cate, before temperance societies were formed. He left a family of sons to emulate his example and honor his memory. From the "History of Taylor" we quote concerning his father: "Corneljus Atherton was a man of marked piety.

He was instrumental in organizing the regular weekly prayer meeting in the vicinity. Before the regular church service was established "people valley her would often call the together on the Sabbath for prayers and read to them extracts from printed sermons. "He built his cabin (1786) on the brow of the hill overlooking the river, near the Bloomsburg Railrcad station at Taylor, taking up a large tract of land. He later moved back to Dutchess County. where he died.

He was the father of fourteen children."

Funeral honors were paid this morning to the late Michael MoNulty. Relatives and friends gathered at the home of Mr. McNulty's son, Martin, 187 Parsonage street, and accompanied the remains to St.

John's R. C. Church, where Rev. Father McHugh conducted a requiem mass. Burial was in St.

John's Cemetery. The pall bearers: James Callahan, Martin Best, John Munley and Frank Scherlinski. rich quick, but went wrong. Another wanted to buy a home and he went wrong. Another wanted a good investment: he also went wrong.

They did not exercise as much care and judgment as a man ordinarily does in buying a pair of boots. Instead of finding out what there was in the market they bought without much consideration and so made unwise bargains or perhaps got defective titles or had their papers so crudely drawn as to breed litigation. There as one party in Pittston who has been selling real estate here for thirty eight years who has not yet had any litigation grow out of his sales nor has he sold a defective title. He now has some great bargains in homes, bustness places and investment properties for cash or monthly installments. See me or W.
