Thirty Tons of Coal For Poor of the City Hundreds of Eager, Jostling, But Good Natured People Were Benefited Through This Charity. '

Heart to Heart Talks.

By EDWIN A. NYE.

Copy.isht, 1908, by Edwin A. Nye

All sexes and all classes were represented In the crowd of about five bundred people pushing baby carriages, wheel barrows, go-carts; carrying boxes, sacks and baskets, that

assembled near the Mather Bros., coal yards early Christmas morning to secure part of the car load of coal which the firm advertised would be given away. The large car, holding thirty

tons, was emptied by the good natur

ed and thoroughly cosmopolitan crowd in little less than an hour.

Negroes, Italians, cripples and peo

ple representing all classes of labor began to assemble near the coal yard

about six o'clock in the morning air

though the gates to the coal yards

were not scheduled to open until after nine o'clock. From all directions people bearing all manner of queer conveyances came. It was part of the contract that the coal should not be hauled away in wagons to which

THE CRYSTAL CUF OF LIFE. The poet calls life "crystal chalice. Which Is a fine figure. Tou can fill a chalice or enp to the brim, ami then if you want an over flow you must thrust or drop something Into it. The amount of the overflow will bo determined by the size of that which you put into the cup. What you get out ! of the same quantity as that .which you put in. So Is human life.

lie who made our earthly vessels of mortal life filled them even to the

brim. Tour earthly chalice holds with

in it life. Whether you shall have that life "more abundantly" depends upon what you put into the vessel. What you get in overflow is measured by

what you put In. For Instance

If you -put love into the chalice ol

your life, your life will overflow in

loveliness. If you put hatred Into it, it will overflow In hatred. If you pnt sin

into your cup or life, sinfulness will

overflow.

In other words. YOtJ CANNOT GET ANT MORE OUT OP TOUR LIFE THAN TOU PUT INTO IT. Tcu may

set less; you cannot get. more. Do you aay it is a harsh law?

On the contrary, it is a most gracioui provision. It puts the powers of the universe into your humble handa. It commissions you as captain of yout

destiny. Tou get what you give. More than that

THE MORE TOU TUT INTO THE CUP THE MORE 18 LEFT TO PUT

IN.

That is to say, the more love yoc

put in the more love you have left, to

my nothing of the overflow of lovell

ness. The more hate you put In the

more hatred you have left, to say noth

tag of the hideous overflow of bate.

But you ask. Why call life a CRYS

TAL chalice?

Because Its operations are transpar

ent to all. Tou can see the proceat

every day in others and in yourself

Tou can see men and women putting love or hatred or envy or revenge into their cups ef life. You can see the overflow in kind, and you can see how

they have more left than they put in.

And in the end when the frail glast

the stroke of Death?

horses were attached, and therefore about everything that could be imagined, outside a spring or gravel wagon, was carried or pushed to the Mather Bros, switch. When the gates were shoved open the crowd cheered and swept toward the car all elbowing, laughing, but still determined to get their share of the car's contents. Men and women alike struggled, but there was no ill feeling at any time. Big, strong men and women also stepped back and allowed the children to secure their share of the coal. This Christmas spirit was one of the features of the entire affair. It is estimated by the firm that at least three hundred poor families of the city were benefited and the coal company is receiving much, praise for its action. Those securing the fuel were all very thankful to the management. The affair was both unique and commendable.

CLOSING MOVE

Dealers Expect to Be Hit.

MAY AFFECT DRUGGISTS

IT IS SAID CIGAR DEALERS WILL

FIGHT AGAINST ANY EFFORT TO CLOSE THEIR PLACES ON SUNDAYS.

Ice cream dealers, cigar store pro

prietors and grocerymen who keep open for a short time on Sunday think they see the hand writing on the wall. These men would not be surprised if the Ministerial association's next move

would be the attempt at the enforcement of kthe Sunday closing laws

against themselves. Tomorrow is

asked to be the day for the first gener

al closing of the meat shops, at least

this request has been made by the ministers of the meat dealers and its general observance is assured.

The move of the association expected

by the grocerymen, ice cream merchants and cigar store proprietors, will

they think, probably be made in the near future. The drug merchants believe that the move may be made against them, but this! it is thought, is not a probability. The other merchants referred to, especially the cigar Btore proprietors, will no doubt fight any attempt at Sunday closing.

The Commercial club has been asked

by a representative of the Juniata college, Huntington, Pa., for its stand in

regard to domestic parcels post as ma

terial for an intercollegiate debate in which representatives of this school participate. As the club had several lengthy and exhaustive arguments on

this subject last winter and took ac

opinion of middle westerners on the tubject. The club will accede to the college's request and mail them a detailed account of its opinion on the

subject.

The Pit of Fir.

There were many forma of hell in early and mediaeval Christianity, each

according to the character and super

stltions of the various peoples of Europe. But, while varying in detail, the essential form was the same throughout. It was a nethermost pit filled with fire of aa inconceivable heat, wherein subordinate devils, under supervision of the arch fiend himself, roasted and turned upon white hot griddles the souls of the damned, torturing them in many minor ways. It ia in these latter methods that the authorities of the middle ages differ. Descriptions of bell abound in the oratory of the time. Accounts ol "personal visits' to the infernal region were common.

Glass mirrors, it is claimed, were known in S3 A. D., but the art of making them was then lost and not regained tiU 1300 A. P.

There is no necessity to suffer the humiliation, chagrin and discomfort of bad breath, biliousness, sour stomach, gastritis, sluggish liver, etc., when a little lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stomach and make it pure and sweet. Do not drug yourself when a simple

little natural charcoal made from fra

grant willow branches, sweetened with

honey, will add tone to your stomach, liver and intestines, rapidly absorb gases and stop foul odors of all kinds.

Charcoal will absorb one hundred

times its own volume in gas. A box full of charcoal placed in a bed room will keep the air of such a room pure

and sweet.

A little charcoal lozenge dissolved

on the tongue after meals will also

keep the stomach fresh and clean

Charcoal is Justly called the scrubbing brush for the stomach. The old monks

of medieval times cured bad cases of stomach trouble, cast out devils from

the system of man by feeding such a

man charcoal.

Scientific men of today believe in

the great strength "of charcoal for the

cure of human ills. Too much of it cannot harm one. The system craves it just like an animal needs and craves

salt every so often. Charcoal goes into the stomach gently and is wel

come, it settles down through the ac

tion of the stomach, and filters through all the food, absorbing gas.

aiding digestion and giving tone to the juices, so that when the food goes into the intestines, and there meets other digestive fluids, the charcoal holds the impurities and thus keeps

them from the blood.

Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are

made from pure willow. They are

prepared fragrant by the use of honey and sweetened so they please the taste and are easily dissolved.

They have an enormous 6ale, thus

stamping them with the approval of the public. Every druggist sells them.

25 cents per box. Go to your druggist today and buy a box; then after your next meal take two or three of

them and judge for yourself of their merit. Several taken at bed time willjprove to you in the morning that they .have been at work all night, for your bad breath will not be so bad after all.

Tangier, Dec. 26. Mulai Hafld. is at

present sultan of Morocco; but with

ont money, without an efficient army,

his heart set on hones which he is

most unlikely to fulfil, his lot is truly

a hard one.

If he begins at once to conciliate the Europeans, to adopt their ways, to open up his country to them, he will

incur the displeasure of his own peo

pie. For the majority of the Moorish people are not yet ripe for reform; they will have none of it, nor of reform mongers. They will see no difference between the attempts of Mulai Hafld to extract the benefits of European civilization and the unworthy devotion of Abdul Aziz to European toys and frivolities. People Chief Danger. That is his first danger. To avoid that he must fly to a greater. Let him act as his people would have him act, eschewing the infidel and all their ways, ordering all his doings upon Islam-rigorous, narrow, the unyielding foe of progress thus he may be sure of the subjection and th loyalty of his people. And thus he wil ruin the country and the people whom he hopes ho save. To make his people adopt anything of western civilization, Mulai Hafld must have them in his power. He must have money and men at his back.

He has neither and can get neither.

The huge debt to France presses upon him, and he has not the money to pay

his troops. He never had; but the

men who fought unpaid to put him on

the throne did so because they thought

he could drive out the foreigner. They

who put him on the throne can throw

him from it.

There is one thing that remains to be

said in common fairness to the Moors

Their objection is not to individual

foreigners, not even to foreigners as a

body, but to foreign methods.

Religious antipathy, in Morocco,

does not seem by any means so strong

as one would expect.

Opposed to European Ideas.

What the Moors hate and dread is

the introduction of European civiliza

tion. To a foreigner whom they be

lieve to be merely a traveler from an

other land and not a person who comes

to force a distasteful mode of life upon

them, they behave with the greatest

kindliness.

They like to talk to you, to expound

their own customs and to hear of yours. . But they do not want to adopt your customs. They do not want to

wear trousers, to work in factories, to

see railways, music halls, intoxication

and European education in their coun try. They are happy as they are.

A LARGE CONSIGNMENT

master Spekenhier has on hand a few of these new style stamps, sent to him as samples. There is but a slight difference in the one cent stamps. The new style included a half front view of the profile of Benjamin Franklin as in the old style variety.

"Holler Than Sunshine" ..(Mom Sllirt&.

The month's consignment of stamps

for the local postoffice has arrived, but they are the old style in each and every instance. The postal employes and postmaster J. A. Spekenhier had been expecting to receive the new va

rieties, especially of the two cent variety. The consignment Is very large

consisting of 200,000 two cent stamps, 100.000 one cent stamps and 40,000 pos

tal cards.

There is a rumor among the postal

employes that the new two cent stamp is to be changed. They explain the

receipt of the old style stamps instead of the new kind because of this fact. To the postal employes the change in the profile of George Washington, which graced all two cent stajnps, from a front view to that of a left side view was like taking "In God- We Trust" off

the currency. The change was made however, because It is estimated that the government will save thousands of

dollars each year because the dyes for

the front profile view of George Wash

ington wear out for some reason much quicker than those of the profile. Post-

No human tongue can tell how I suffered, and I had given up hope of ever getting well until I began taking Foley's Kidney Remedy. After taking two bottles I felt likea new person, and feel it my duty to tell suffering women what Foley's Kidney Remedy did for me." A. G. Luken & Co.

H1BBERD BEATS BURR. In the city billiard championship which is in a tetter between Burr. Braffett and Hibberd, Burr was put out of the running, at least temporarily, by being defeated by Hibberd 110 to 83. Burr lacked two points of having enough to win. Braffett and Hibberd have to play off the existing tie between them and if Braffett wins, this will result in the three being tie again. Otherwise Hibberd wins the championship.
