Han kins, oilce famous as a Rambling king, and a reputed million­ aire, lias almost as many dollars ?in debts piled up against him as he once had in bank accounts to his credit. Last week he filed a petition in involun­ tary bankruptcy, which set forth that his entire assets were worth only $11,000 and that against him he had $817,814 in liabilities. Of his former properties the only one that is left is the Riverside House in this village which is heavily encumbered. Last summer the final blow came through the Kenilworth race track at Buffalo, which cost him heavily. Han- kins' heaviest creditors are S.

Heavy eating is usually the first cause of indigestion. Repeated attacks in­ flame the mucious membranes lining the stomach, exposes the neryes of the stomach, producing a swelling after eat­ ing, heartburn, headache, sour risings and finally catarrh of the stomach. Eodol relieves the inflammation, protects the nerves and cures the catarrh. Kodol cures indigestion, dyspepsia, all stomach troubles by cleansing and sweetening tha glands of the stomach. Julia A.

For signals the charge consists of 12 parts of nltei, 2 of sul­ phur and 3 of charcoal. The decorative rocket is the one we see used on the Fourth of July. It is composed of 122 parts of finely pulverized powder, €0 of niter, 40 of sulphur and 40 of cast iron filings. The main part of the rocket is a case, made by rolling stout paper, cov­ ered on one side with paste, around a wooden form, at the same time apply­ ing considerable pressure. The end is then "choked" or brought tightly to­ gether with twine The paper case thus made is placed in a copper mold, so that a conical cop­ per spindle will pass up through the choke, and the composition is then poured in and packed by blows of a mallet on a copper packing tool made to fit over the spindle. The top of the case is then closed with a layer of moist plaster of paris one inch in thick­ ness, perforated with a small hole for the passage of the flame to the upper part or "pot." The pot Is formed of an­ other paper cylinder slipped over and pasted to the top of the case and sur­ mounted by a paper cone filled with taw. A child of Mrs. Geo. T. Benson, when getting his usual Saturday night bath, stepped back against a hot stove which burned him severely. The child was in great agony and his mother could do nothing to pacify him. Remembering that she had a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm in the house she thought she would try it. In less than half an hour after applying it the child was quiet and asleep, and in less than two weeks was well. Mrs. Benson is a well known resident of Kellar, Pa.

In some country districts in Ireland it is not unusual to see the owners' names simply chalked on carts and Other vehicles, In order to comply with legal regulations. Unfortunately, this custom lends itself to the playing of pranks on the part of "bhoys" mali­ ciously inclined, who sometimes rub off the lettering and thereby gets the cart owner into trouble with the police. A case of this kind having occurred, a constabulary sergeant accosted a coun­ tryman whose name bad been thus wiped out unknown to him: "Is thia cart yours, my good man?" "Af coorse it ia," was the reply: "do you see any­ thing the matter wid itV" "I obsarve." said the pompous policeman, "that your name if o-blitherated." "Then ye'r wrong," quoth the countryman, who had never come across the long dictionary word before, "for me name'* O'Reilly, an* I don't care who knows it!"--Liverpool Post If you are biiivu** aud seeking advisers, Take DeWitt's Little Early Risers, Just before going to bed.

GREAT COMBINATION. The McHenry Plaindealer and Weekly Inter Ocean One Year for |1.7S Although the weekly Inter Ocean has advanced its price to the country press for the coming subscription season, we are going to give the two papers to our subscribers for $1.75 per year to all who take advantage of the offer before Jan- nary 1, 1903. The payment must be an advance payment in every case, and it must be made before the limit indicat­ ed. This is as plain as human words can shake it, and there will be no ex­ cuse for anybody coming in after the 1st df January and asking for the two papers at this price, for the price will be $2 after January 1. This gives ev­ erybody an opportunity to get two good papers for a little more than the price of one, and if your Plaindealer is paid for until some time the fore part of next year, you can advance the date a year and take advantage of this offer, the Inter Ocean to begin at once. These terms are liberal, fair and plain, and we hope to see a large number of intelligent people tale advantage of them. We also offer the Plaindealer to new subscribers three months for 25 cents, or from now to January 1, 1904, for $1.50. tf. The Best Remedy for Croup, (From the Atchison. Kan.. Daily Globe.) This is the season when every woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible things in the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are almost as sure to be lost, in a case of croup, as a revolver is sure to be lost in a case of burglars. There used to be an old-fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive-syrup and tolu, but some mod­ ern mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to "throw up the phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as the croupy cough ap­ pears and it will prevent the attack. It never fails and is pleasant and safe to take.

It would make a fitting epitaph for the grave of many a fail­ ure. A man without reserve is like a condemned, leaky vessel. On a calm day it can be towed from port to port, but It would be utterly helpless in a storm. Many fall from lack of reserve of education, of early training, of solid. Ingrained habit. Others fall from lack of reserve of savings, of capital. Many have gone down from the lack of char­ acter reserve, of health reserve, of friendship reserve. It pays to store up reserve of every kind, to be prepared for every emergency. Too exhausting effort, too extravagant expenditure, too reckless daring or too much reliance on unknown factors leaves uo margin or reserve, so that a slip would mean t certain fall.--Success. A Policeman's Testimony. J. N. Patterson, night policeman of Nashna, la , wHt««, "Last winter I had a bad cold "on my lungs and tried at least a half dozen advertised cough medicines and had treatment from two physicians without getting any benefit.
