JUST A LITTLE
HEARD   DEATHS   SUMMONS.
POLITICAL  C_fiT_.l_JT.   RECORD OF THOSE   WHO   HAVE
BEEN CALLED AWAY.
Tbe (Kind i d a-es for the various offices
to be voted for on February 19 have
begun their campaign and the man
who has a vote finds himself already a
popular fellow. Here in Waynesboro
tbe principal contest and the only one
wbich arouses much interest is in the
second ward, where four very well-
known business men and prominent
party men are aspiring for election as
school directors. They are Cashier
J. H. Stoner of tbe People's [National
bank and Postman G. Howard Kuhn,
on the .Republican ticket, and Chas.
E. H. Brown, the busy grocer and
manufacturer, and William 'Middlekauff, private secretary to General
Manager Ezra Frick of Frick Manfg.
Co., on tbe Democratic ticket. Two
are to be elected. All are weH-fttted
for the office and all are popular and
tbere will be a lively campaign by
them and tbeir friends. The normal
Bepublican majority favors the Le-
publican candidates but they are by
no means certain of their election.
* *
*
The Chester connty Democratic
committee has expelled from the organization about thirty _ prominent
members who fought the fusion ticket
last fall. If the Democrats gained ; s
little by fusion in Chester as they did
in Franklin county the propriety of
thus disciplining some of their party
workers is not very clear. .Here t e
Democrats gave everything and received nothing. The "fusion" he-
publicans did not extend as much assistance and amounted to a hundred
votes and why Democrats should continue to accept their candidates and
support them is something not easily
explained.
.*
The Greencastle Republicans bave
nominated J. E. Wbitmore aud Benjamin Bert for school directors and
W. C. Cantner and John Shank for
councilmen. The Democrats have
named Dr. C. M. McLaughlin and G.
F. Bloser as their candidates for
school directore and B. F. Hellane,
Augustus Warner. Jr., and U. IS.
Spielman for town council. The Democrats, It will be observed, bave named
three candidates for council men, while
the Republicans have nomiuated only
two.

that have been invented only a few

that will keep perfect time. The
nearest approach is a time-piece that
will regularly lose or gain a certain
number of seconds each twenty-four
hours. This loss or gain is called a

to a particular kind of an escapement

Distribution of Public Documents  Do Not
Win Votes Por Congressman.
In the course of a debate in congress,
yesterday, Congressman T. M. Mahon
announced boldly tbat the farmers of
this state know rore about agriculture than the people in the department at Washington. He opposed an
amendment offered by Mr. Latimer (S.
C.) to increase the appropriation for
printing farmers' bulletins and declared tbat the members supporting it did
so in order to make themselves popular with tbeir constituents.
Tbe idea tbat a congressman's popularity could be enhanced by the distribution of documents was, *!r.
Mahon said, a mistaken one. He bad
tried it, and portions of his disrlct
where be sent documents returned a
reduced vote for Dim at tbe election. * Mr. Mahon scored the professional friends of tbe farmer, who
were continually howling against railroads. Tbe farmers of Pennsylvania,
be declared, are prosperous, because
the great manufacturing towns and
cities make markets for tbeir produce
. right at home.
There is no better medicine for the
babies than Chamberlain's ('ough Remedy. Its pleasant taste and promot and
effectual cures make it a favorite w<th
mothers and small children. It quickly
cures tbeir coughs and colds, preventing
pneumonia or other serious consequences.
It also cures cro^p and has been used in
tensof thousands of cases without a single
failure so far as w- have been able to learn.
It not only cures croup, but wh. n given
as soon as the cro py cough appears, will
prevent the attack. In cases of whooping cough it liq.i.lies the tough mucus,
making it easier to expectorate, and lessens the severity ami frequency of the
paroxysms of cougbin, thus depriving
that disease of all dangerous co .sequences. Por sale by Fortbman & Miller.

"I feel as if I should fly to pieces."
How often tbese words are on a
woman's 1 ips. They express to the uttermost the nerve racked condition of
tbe body, wbich makes life a daily
martyrdom. _lj_\
lf this condition bad come suddenly
it would have been unbearable. But
tbe transition was gradual. A little
n o e strain each day on the nerves. A
libtle more drain eacb day of the vitality. Any woman would be glad to be
rid of such a cond • tion. Every wo m a n
tries to be rid of it.' Thousands of
such women bave been cured by Dr.
Pierce's treatment with his "Favorite
Prescription" when Lxsal doctors had
entirely failed'to cure.
"Favorite Prescription" contains no
opium, cocaine or other narcotic
fledged and perfect, but were evolved
from something more crude that existed earlier.
•The first watch was made by Peter
Henlein, a locksmith in Nuremburg,
in the early part of tbe Sixteenth century, lt was made of jron and was
not more delicate or highly finished
than the ordinary coffee mill found in
every well-regulated kitchen of today.
The development of the watch was
slow. More than a hundred years
elapsed before so small and indifferent
a thing as a glass crystal was used to
protect the dial and the hands. One
hundred and fifty years after Peter
Henlein wrought tbe first watch,
Nicholas Facio, la Genevan, discovered
the art of piercing precious stones.
This led to tbe use of jewels in the
rubbing parts of a movement to prevent wear, a serious drawback to the
old brass-bearing watches that pre-
ceded Facio's time. It may be said
right here that although watch jeweling has becorpe a fine art, it is not the
little bits of rubies, sapphires, crystals
and garnets that enhance so much tbe
price of a watch as the care, time and
trouble in adjusting it.
"Watches were not carried in the
pocket until about the time dial crystals came into use. After the invention, of the mam or going spring by
Peter Hele and tbe hair spring by Dr.
ilooke, the watcbrmaker was on easy
street.
"The first Watches had but one
band which indicated the hour, the
day, as now, being divided into two
tricks of twelve hours each, Tbe faces
of most watches bave the hours indicated by Roman numerals, 'though
the fourth hour is marked by four 1's
thus: I1II, instead of IV wbich tbe
Romans used to indicate four. This
freak it is said is due to the whim,
caprice or deviPsbness of ooe of the
French kings,
"Wben the watcb reached the
dignity of twobanda tbat is a minute
and an bour hand, t'me cea-Ned to be
predominating object of tbe make ,
and he turned hls attention to tbe
minor or toy part, viz: the elaboration
of the case with rich gems and
exquisite designs, and the pe"-."Cfc'og
of repeaters tbat struck the hours,
quarter-hours and minutes and movements that played tunes. Jt was not
until the advent of railroads that the
watch maker was brought to bis
senses, that 'time' was the all important object aod if be wished to be
up-to-date be must abandon the case
and the fancy make-up of tbe she1!
and get down to bard- work and study
tbe. improvement, or tbe works ss the
laymen call it. It had long been known
tbat a watcb gaiued in cold and lost
in bot weather, tbat when it lay dial
down it bad a different rate from that
it bad when i*. lay dial up, these variations changing when bung 12 up, 6 up,
3 up or 9 up. These were defects that
had to be remedied and the genius set
I .to work to overcome tbem. The
magnificent watch of today with its
fine adjustment to heat, cold, position
and i soc uranism is the result.

f .Rowing fable: 'Correct time.' It
nay be added that chronometer escapements are the only watch escape-
nents that will acquire and maintain
i rate.
"Most persons are apt to associate
pendulums with the first clocks made
but strange to say, tbe pendulum as a
measurer of time was not discovered
until years after tbe first toothed-
wheel clook was made, the earlier
clock escapements being of the balance
kind with a twisted spting in the
of the mass, it must be conceded tbat
the modern printing press has displaced our mechanical idol.
"Is the watch a lazy bird? Let us
see. A quick train movement will
make 18,000 beats an hour. Allowing
the periphery of the balance to travel
half an inch at each beat, it will have
place afterwards given to the bair
spring.
"As a piece of mechanism tbe
watch, in the minds of tbe multitude,
stands on tbe top round of the ladder.
With all due respect to the opinions
covered about 750 feet in an hour, o-*
about three and a third m'les in a day,

thereabouts) in twenty years. At

of one-half grain, will net about 10,265
pounds a year. And what does it ask
in return? Tbat you permit a careful
repairer to soak it in benzine till the
old hard oil and dirt are removed, dip
it in alcohol long enough to remove
the almost invisible coating that tbe
benzine leaves, to carefully brush each
part, true up the balance if it needs it,
put together, oil the rubbing parts
and adjust to case."
NOT THE JANITOR'S FAULT.
Poor Cost, Which Pilled the Chimney With
Soot, Caused tbe Chill In the Academy.
From Zrphtk of Jan. 31.
Janitor Gans was a caller at tbe
Zephyr office today to explain tbe
cause of tbe low temperature in tbe
academy of music when the audience
was nearly frozen Tuesday evening.
He lays all tbe blame on the co.:l,

soot so tbat it will not draw.
The beater is all right, Mr. Gai s
says and tbe fireman,too, he intimates.
Tuesday morning he started fire in the
beater at 8:30 o'clock but could at no
time during the day generate more
tban two pounds of steam, except for
a brief interval when it was increased
to four pounds.
Janitor Gans says: "I fired the beater hard all day and all evening bi-t

This change will be made very soon.
The company is alt-o preparing to

of such current to tbem.
It will not be long until a new

The contract with the borough for

to good advantage. For tbe present
the open arc lamps will be continued.
The lamps may be installed in a

rhirty-two Arcs And   Like Number  of In-
candescents To Be  Erected   In   Dark
Places  And  In  The  Suburbs.
More of the dark places on Waynesboro's streets will be made light in a
snort time, thanks be t-> council.
The location of the new electric
ligbt lamps has been decided upon by
tbe street lighting committee. Four
new are lamps,of the inclosed pattern,
will be erected (some to take the place
of incandescents) and eight new incandescent lamps.
The location of the new lamps will   ■
be as follows:
ARC LAMPS.
Bidge avenue and Third street.
Potomac avenue and Penn street.
Potomac avenue and Fourth street.
Cleveland and Snider avenues.
INCANDESCENT LAMPS.
Church street and Gas alley.
Cburcb and Fourth streets.
Potomac avenue and alley between
Main and North streets.
Main street and W. M. R. R.
Broad street between Second and
Third streets.
Nortb and Garfield streets.
Fairview avenue between Second
and Third streets.
Clayton avenue between Main and
Second streets.
There will be, under the new contract made by tbe borough with the
electric light company, the equivalent
ot forty arc lamps. There will be.actu-
ally, thirty-two arc lamps and thirty-
two incandescent lamps on the streets,
one arc lamp being counted equal to
four incandescent lamps.
As will be observed the new lamps
have been placed in portions of the
town that bave been badly in need of
more   light   and   in   the  suburbs.
Waynesboro will not be, even with
these additional lamps as thoroughly .
lighted as is desirable but tbere will
be a great improvement and one that
will be thoroughly appreciated.
It was not possible to contract for a
greater number of lamps tbis year but
the financial condition of tbe town
will be such, twelve months hence, as
to enable council to make further additions. For wbat we have we extend
thanks to council and congratulations
to the citizens. For next year's enlargement we have most sanguine
hopes.

Rev. C. W. Depew, Wayne, 111., says:
"PRESTO" We find it perfectly reliable *
especially in throat trouble, bronchitis'
and colds affecting the head. We do not
feel safe without it. With Presto we can
almost bid defiance to diphtheria and all
throat affections. I stake my reputation
on Presto.
PRESTO is a wonder! It stops pain.
Cures aches. It has made amazing cures
of Rheumatism. It soon breaks up a
cold, checks croup, sorethroat and prevents pneumonia. A great healer of cuts,
torn flesh, burns, etc. This whole page
isn't big enough to tell of its goodness.
