The borough of Duryea , near Plttston , Pa. ,
was the scene of considerable excitement re
cently , when It became known that Mrs.
Itomanslcl , a Polish woman , came near being
burled alive.
Mrs. Uomanskl Is a widow. She was taken
suddenly 111 on Monday and grew worse until
Thursday , when she showed signs of death.
Toward evening she apparently died. The
neighbors ssnt for an undertaker. The body
was prepared for burial and placed In a
comn.
Upon going to the coffln where ; the woman
lay he began to fasten the lid. Ho had
hardly commenced this when the supposed
corpse opened her eyes and glanced about
the room at 'he wc plng friends , as if. at a
loss to understand the meaning of the pro
ceedings. While her astonishment was great ,
that of the assembled friends was still
greater , but soon the scene was changed from
one of grief to gladness. A physician was
summoned , and In explanation he gave It as
his opinion that the case was nothing more
than one of suspended animation. The house
has since been besieged by people anxious to
see the dead woman who came to life , as
they term It.
Mrs. Romanskl Is much Improved
and Is thankful that she escapsd being burled
alive.

Every season brings a new crop of cough
remedies , but they cannot compste with
that grand ? old Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.

One solitary human hair seems a very
sirall thing , but It Is the most Important
part of an Important machine In the capltol
at Washington. This machine warms and
ventilates the house , the senate and various
committee rooms nnd runs several elec
tric dynamos. Its most curious leaturo is
thetnppllanca for telling the proper tcmpera-
tbro of the air In the building. A dial ar
ranged likea clock marks different degrees
from 0 to 100 ; 0 means perfectly dry air ,
100 saturated air 1. e. , air carrying all the
moisture It will hold.
Human hair absorbs ) moisture like a rope ,
becoming shorter when it Is wet , In the same
, way. The hair Is six Inches long. The dlf-
rcronco In length between it when wet nnd
dry stands for the 100 degrees of moisture
on the dial , and as the moisture cf the hair
varies the pointer on the dial moves. Ac
cording to the necessity more stoani is
thrown In or steam IB allowed to escape ,
the atmosphere- being in this way regulated
and kept at a healthy point.
One Mlnuto Cough Cure IB a popular remedy
for croup. Safe for children and adults.
