EAST PROVIDENCE.
Tim Sullivan, a produce peddler, was
in a bad fix yesterday afternoon and for
a while it looked as if he would loge
his horse and wagon. He was on the
“Patch” and while delivering goods,
his horse wandered up the steep bank.
As Tim came from the house, he saw
hig horse and wagon roll like a hoop
down the bank and into a ditch, To
. make matters worse, one side of the
ditch was a stone wall and on the other
was a small house, the latter being in
danger of being demolished. Men,
women and children lent a hand, and
after two hours’ hard work, the horse
was taken out of the ditech and the
wagon tixed up.

That there is one boy In the Sprague
ville school who obeys his parents was
illustrated by an ircident which oc
curred there the other day. Two boys,
the eldest not more than 7 years old,
had o fight in which the youngest came
off best, Doth, however, went into the
school room crying, and on the teacher
inquiring the causge, the story of the
fight was related. ““Why did you strike
him?”" she asked of the youngest,
“rCause he seratched my nose” he re
plied. “Yes; but that was two or three
daysg ago. Why did you strike him to
day?” asked the teacher. “'Cause iy
mamma told me,” he sald, with a burst
of tears, 'The teagher turned away to
hide a smiile, and then with a few words
of advice gent the boys to their places,
There is every evidenee that a beauti
ful crop of ice will be cut in the town
thig yvear., Already a large amount has
bheen taken from the Sprague pond.
The ice is from 12 to 16 inches thick.
There is no eontroversy as to which
fire company arrvived first at the recent
fire, ag has been stated. Only Arling
ton companies torned out, and state
ments to the contrary have been made
by those who were not present, A
comical incident which happened dur
ing that exciting time i 8 worth relating.
While the men were working getting
out the burning feather bed a man
pushed hig way upstairs, He was
warned to clear out, but did not do so
in timme, and when in the middle of the
stairs the mass struck him and carrvied
him to the bottom, when ne extricated
Wimerlf, but was a funny sight, He
c¢arried home with him a good many
feathers as a 4 memento,
1t is time that the citizens of West
Arlington awoke to a sense of their
vights, and a meeting to try and secure
hydrants for the protection of their
property is a move in the right direc
tion. Many things were promised pur
chasers of land in this scction that
have never gone further than promises,

in the Sunday school rooms of St
Thomuas church to hear a most inter
esting talk given by Rev, Mr. Edwards,
rector of the church, on invitation of
the vestry, on his experiences in the
Turkish Empire, The talk was proba
bly as interesting an entertainment as
ever glven by those in charge of the
many excellent entertainments given
by this church., This is saying a good
deal, for some of the entertainments
given in the past have been most merit
orfous ones. Rev, Mr., Edwards is
bright, clever and interesting talker.
His wit is spontaneous and he used his
eyes and ears evidently to the best ad
vantage in his travels, His talk lasted
an hour and a half and therg was not
a dull moment during that period, His
descriptions of the city of Constaniino
ple were very vivid and to his audience
extremely delighted with his descrip
tions of weaving and spinning in the
far East, 'The rector brougnt from the

these were worn by young men and
young women of the Sunday school and
the appearance of these young folks
caused lotg of laughter and applause,

WORSE THAN
DRINK HABIT.
The. Eating of Snow in the Far
Northern Regions.
PECULIAR XIND OF DISSIPATION,
When the Mercury is Below Zero a Mouth
ful of Snow Is Like Molten Metal.
WRECKS SYSTEM OF THE STRONG.
Habit Easily Formed but Vory Difficult 1o Break Off,
Fate of a Miner Who Turned From a
Whisky to a Snow Tipple.
Every great discovery in the world's
higtory has brought with it an accom
panying aflietion, and it has remained
for the Klondilke Lo develon a peculiar
mania that threatens to outrival opivm
cating, Among the residents ?&be far
North it is known as the “snow habit,”
and it is said to be mcurable. Henry
Barnum of Great Bend township has
returned from the Klondike, and tells
the strange story, says tne Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
“There are many strange things in
th: Klondike,” said Mr. Barnum, “but
perhaps the strangest and that about
which nothing has been written so far
is the dissipation caused by eating
snow. In the north, when the ther
mometer reaches 20 to 40 degrees below
zero, o mouthtful of snow is like molten
metal. It brings an inflammation to
the palate and tongue, and it is impos
#ible to quench the thirst., The first
advice an old-timer offers a 4 newcomer
in the region is, ‘Don't eat snow.’
There are men ine that country, once
hearty, robust miners, now weak, ef
feminate creatures, whose fall can be
traced directly to the time they began
munching snow,
“The matter has been Dut little in
vestigated, but the scientists who have
examined the subject say that the
waters of the North are rich with min
eral deposits, which are being con
stantly washed down from the moun
tains, A certain per cent, of this min
eral is taken into the air when vapor
arises, and the snow becomes impreg
nated with it, There have been geveral
falls of red snow near Point Barrow,
the deposits being of a reddish brown
color, due entirely to minerals. Thus
it can be seen that a person eating
large quantities of the snow takes into
his system a corresponding amount of
minerals.”
While coming down the Copper River
last spring Mr. Barnum came upon a
party of miners where one was dying
from the effects of cating snow, He had
been 4 hard drinker, but had run short
of whiskey. His thirst became unen
durable, and as water was scarce in
midwinter he had taken to eating snow,
Soon he claimed it relieved his appetite
for liguor, but his companions noticed
that his appetite for snow increased
until he was consuming enormous
quantities, Gradually his skin, which
was a dark bronze, grew light, his
rugged stature became bent, and even
his harsh voice changed to the effemin
ate squeak of an old woman, His
gtrength gave way, and his compan
jonsg tried to break him of the habit.
He would lie on his pallet and moan
pitifully for a mouthful of snow, and
when opportunity offered would steal
unobserved to the doorway and gulp
down huge handfuls, At last, seeing
death was inevitable, his companions
allowed him the snow, hoping to pro
long his life. It proved unavailing,
and one morning just previous to Mr,
Barnum’'s departure the man was
found dead.
There are some spols on the Copper
Niver where the snow, when melted
and strained throuzh a «¢loth, shows
perceptible signs of minerals, and often
gold is found plentifully intermixed,
but, of course, not in paying quanti
ties. “Vhere this comes (rom 18 4 myss
tery, but it may be brougint from the
far north by the heavy winter gales
that sweep over this part of the coun
try. It has been said that if the snow
could be melted awayv it would leave
deposits of millions of dollars in gold
dust on the ground.
Mr, Barnum had « close call himself
from falling a victim to the snow
habit, “It was lin the winter of 18%4-
97" he puld, "and 1 was new 1o the
country, Amn old miner near Dawson
had warned me against eating snow,
but 1, with my partner, had gone back
in the hills on a prospecting tour, and
had got caught in a blizzard, We were
shy of provisions, and on our way up
lost the package containing our cook
ing utensils, This we remedied by
broiling our cooked foods, but we had
nothing in which to melt the snow, It
is claimed that melted snow is harmless
asx the metallic deposits it contains
sink to the bottom of the receptacle,
We decided to try it raw,” and we did.
Whether it was the {ood or the snow, 1
don't know: but during the week we
walted for a chance 1o get out we had
on ever-increasing thirst, until, when
we were finally able to strike the trail,
we wore consuming snow at a frightful
rate, When we reachel our companions
we attempted to assuage our thirst
with water, but it did no good, We had
acauired a taste tor the trozen water,
and It seemed to have invigorating
qualities, At night we con@ not sleep
unlegs we took our snow, We were fast
approaching the degenerate stage, when
1 reached a realizing sense of our con
dition, and undertook to break it off, 1
hegan by degrees and worked down but
up to the very moment ! left the coun
try the sight of snow always raired in
me an inordinets craving, It cest me
many sleeplesg nights and weary daye
to restrain mveelf. liad I given wayv to
the habit, T would live many another
noor fellow, have lost o'l ambition and
filled an unknown grave in that frozen
wildernessg,'' n
AFTER GRIP
There is no denying the serious
fact that there is a great amount of
sickness from the grip ; that over
worked men and women now suffer
more than at any other time of the
yvear from lassitude, headaches,
slight chills and fever and other
symptoms of mperfect health; that
people fall s.icjz more * readily now
than at any other time of the year;
and that whenever an epidemic
does appear it invariably plays
havoc with those who are run
down and out of condition.
The utmost caution should be
taken to keep the blood pure and
the nervous system in healthy tone.
There is no more excuse for the
prevalent symptoms of stagnant,
impure blood in the body than
there is for the barbarism of filthy
streets in a city.
The relaxed and sluggish action
of the excretory organs loads the
body with waste material that
poisons it and brings on head
aches, rheumatic pains, sleepless
nights and profitless days, due
solely to the circulation in the
blood, or depeosit in the tissues, of
these waste matters which Paine’s
celery compound alone will quickly
drive out.
When the arms, hips or back
feel the twinges of acute rheuma
tism it is high time to relieve the
kidnevs and bladder f{rom the
strain that so often brings on
Bright's discase, gravel, dropsy
and complications of discases with
other organs whose health depends
upon the purity of the blood.
Prompt use of Paine’s celery com
pound will save the weakened
parts from yielding to disease.
In its peculiar ability to invig
orate the body, to make new blood
and to regu'ate the aerves, lies the
great value of Paine’s celery com
pound in all wasting diseases aud
disorders of the kidneys, liver and
stomach.
Paine’s celery compound rescues
shaky, enfecbled nerves from pros
tration and removes that feeling of
utter exhaustion that causes so
much despondency among so many
worried men and women.
It makes flesh, blood and strong
11erves.
Paine's celery compound is not
a patent medicine! It is not the
discovery of some quack doctor of
whom his profession never heard;
it is not a concoction put up by
some man who first invented a
name, and then adopted a prepa
ration to fit it; it is not a seggpt
remedy. ;
USE OF SMOKELESS POWDER.
Theie Was Little Cal For il Before the Recent
War Now lts Usefulnass Raalzed.
People have heard more about sinoke
less powder gince the beginning of hos
tilitles between Spain and the United
Statesg than they ever knew since its
existence as o factor in warfare or as
a source of great satisfaction to the
sportsmen. Smokeless, or nitro powder,
ig far more extensively manufactured
in this country than onc would sup
poge, since the army and navy were
very short on the supply necessary to
the requirements of the big guns. In
fact, very little of the smokeless pow
der was used by the navy or the field
batteries of our army.
“Notwithstanding the fact that for
elgn manufacturers of smokeless pow
der were better supplicd at the time
we began to lay in =upplies of it than
the American makers, there are dozens
of smokeless powder mills in Amer
fea,” says George H. Rawlings, who
has handled the nitro powder ever gince
it was Introduced for shotguns and
rifles. “American makers of smokelesa
powders had not paid a great deal! of
attention to the manufacture of it for
use lin guns of larger calibre, like the
armament of the navy or the cannons
of the land forces, but America leads
the world in the making of nitro pow
der for sporting purposes,

But it is, first, the result of the
lifelong study of the greatest phy
sician America has produced, a
man whose reputation was world
wide years before he had ever ar
rived at this formula which has
done so much good; a man who
has received the highest degrees
from the best colleges, who was at
the time of his discovery a pro
fessor at Dartmouth and a lecturer
in other universities, a scholar, a
member of a family which has
made its mark in every depart
ment of public life in America. It
is a remedy the formula of which
has been furnished to physicians
in good standing always,and which
physicians were prescribing long
before the present manufacturers
putit up for public distribution it
was discovered by Prof. Edward
E. Thelps, M. D., LL. D., and was
first prescribed with wonderful
success by that eminent group of
practitioners who have ::ade
American physicians known the
world over, and of whom he was
then as mnow, undoubtedly the
