'Need of a Central Body : The habit of our American cities, )= of, emptying sewage into and draw- § ° ing drinking-water from the same - body of water, is suicide on a large | scale, according to Dr. G. E. Fell, of | j- Buffalo, who discusses the advis- afiifili‘ty of government control of the Great Lakes, in a recent article in . The Journal of the American Medi- cal Association. Dr. Fell says that the excessively rapid growth of the population surrounding the great lakes demands the prevention of the 'befoulment of this great system of waterways, and the subject should te immediately considered. We are ats pressing initial stage in the pro- ! the © 'ceedings needed to organize methods of control. . In the great cities of Chicago. Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo the instinctive need is felt of an intelligent answer as to how we shall best proceed to im- prove the present status and ward i off impending disaster through the unwige sanitary methods now being fallowed. Chicago has made an at- . tempt to solve the problem ny dig- ging its drainage cinal, an attempt probably unwise for the reason that the quantity of water taken from Lake Michigan at present is insuf- Is the, melting pot getting hat is happening to 7,000,000 | Lol x gre opening a tariff war with ficient to take care of the sewage output of this great city. The drain of the waters of the great lakes which has been going on for years, must be more carefully controlled. 'The conservation of the water is quite as important as the conserva- tion of coal, lumber and other great commodities of life. 'The careless denudation of the forests of the lake region adds to the geriousness of this question. The low stage of water reported As now existing oh the lakes teaches that natural laws must not;be trified with.

The complaining: Rusband is a diréct descendant of Daniel Boone. The offending wife is descended from the family of which Thomas Jefferson was a member. She, it was proved, had called it to the attention of her husband more than once that her lineage was more iliustrious tGOin his, [and once she wrote him a letter in which she ciaimed that the Boone women are nly fitted to be servants of the wo- men of the house of Jefferson. The interes.ing thing lin connec- tion with these absurdities is won- dering what either Thomas Jefferson or Daniel Boone would have thought, or how either of them would have felt, if, in the midst of the career I acstined to make his name histori- cal, he could have foreseen such pet- ity wranglings as these, growing out oft hereditary transmission of his 'name. - These mon, like all really great men must be, were wholly un- conscious of their greatness. - Bach was great in his own way, and their ways were vastly different, but the ; men were exactly alike in that one . | iidispensable element of greatness, a . « modesty and unassumingness so na- | tural and unaffected as to indicate | unmistakably that no- man truly 'grea,t ever has the least conscious- ess of the faci. When it is possible for a man to feel that he is by na- ture ordained superior to his fel- lows, that man is not great. If he is not small, he is at least far short of the full siature of greatness. \Clara Clara Vere de Vere,\ sang Tennyson to his Norman heiress, 'from jou high heavens above us bent, the gardener Adam and his wife smile at your claims of long gescent.\ We have never seen the ! v'iole logic of the case put more con- {cisely and satitically. It leaves no- ' thing unsaid. We must all concede that we hark back to a gardener or --a monkey. We take the gardener 'for ours, a greater man than either Jefferson or Boone, in that he beat boone as a pioneer ang distanced Jefferson in a declaratiqgn of inde- nendence which failed, ss much work of great men has often done..

American side, out of a total flow of 240,000 cubic feet a sgcond. The use of this quantity of water fffi' power purposes, the enginéers found, would not affect the appear- auce of the Falls sufficiently for the eye to detect. Since only albout half the quantity permitted by the treaty is now diverted, twice the present horsepower can 'be produced without ' :- endangering the scenic beauty of the cataract. sCOTCH BUSH: Dec. 27.-Mr. and Mrs. William Strobeck, Jr., of Johnstown spent Christmas visiting friends in this place. + « 4 Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Cretser are pound daughter.

There issonly one way to cure deaf- ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an- inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachlan Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum- bling sound or imperfect | hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deat- ness is the result, and unless the in- flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi- tion, hearing will be destroyed for- ever; nine cases out of ten are caus- ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Doliars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir- culars, free. F. J.
