HOOKS AND EYES.

What do great liars do when they
die?-They lie still.
Senator Wilson was the first to use
the phrase "The New Departure"
The latin word for woman is "mu
lier." No wonder that the female sex
is so obstinate.
A student in Western college is SC
addicted to tardiness that he is known
as "the late Mr.. Tompkins."
One hundred millions of glass chin
neys for lamps are annually broken in
the United States.
Learning is wealth to the poor, an
honor to the rich, an aid to the young,
and support and comfort to the aged.
A history of tobacco will shortly be
published. 1t will be illustrated with
fine cuts; you can buy it if you chews.
The nerve which never relaxes, the
eye which never blauches, the thought
which never wanders; these are the
masters of victory.
The poet says:
The pleasure of pleasures, the greatest Of all
Panaceas for winds that are sick,
Il to sit in the shade near big stone wall
And whittle soft pine stick.
1t is most significant fact that since
the war the public debt of the United
States has been reduced as much as the
debt of England was reduced in fifty
FIVE years.
No shade of violet ought ever to be
used in any sort of evening dress, as
the color vanishes entirely under an ar
tifcial light. Many young lady has
suffered for not remembering this.
A garden we'll kept, with the flowers
we'll tended, and the beds, borders and
walks neat and clean, is always indica-
tive of industry and good taste in
good family.
Another method has been found to
kill the potato bugs now doing SO much
injury in the west. 1t is yery simple,
being merely soap suds and soda, in the
proportion Of three pounds of the latter
to barrel of the former. The liquid
is sprinkled on the vines from water
ing pot, and it is said to be instant death
to the troublesome insects.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29
STATE NEWS,

About 800 new wells are going down
in the oil regions--sixty in excess Of
the number being drilled the same time
in May, and 157 less than the number
in process Of drilling the same time Q
year ago.
The steel works Of the Cambria Iron
Company, Johnstown, are rapidly ap.
preaching completion. When in full
operation at least 500 persons will find
employment in addition to the 4,0OO
that are already employed about the
iron works.
Wilkesbarre, june 22.--Some 40
miners we're temporarily imprisoned in
the earth yesterday by the falling in Of
the slope of the Empire mine, several
miles from this place. All were rescued,
and are expected to recover from the
effects of the foul air inhaled during
their confinement
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29

To REMOVE TIE TASTE OF WooD.
A new keg, churn, bucket, or other
wooden vessel, will generally communi-
cate a disasreeable taste to anything
that is put into it. To prevent this in-
convenience, scald the vessel we'll with
boiling water, let the water remain in
it until cold; then dissolve some pearl
ash or soda in lukewarm water. adding
little lime to it. Wash the inside of
the vessel well with this solution. After
ward scald it well with hot water, and
rinse with cold water before you use it..
The reason for this is the ready combi-
nation of resinons matter, with alkalies
to form compounds soluble in alcohol
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29

TIE REASON WHY.-Tbe immedi-
ate cause of premature fading or blanch-
ing OF the hair is an obstruction of the
oil vessels which afford the coloring
matter. The remote causes may be
general i'll health, trouble of mind, etc.
dence, in order to restore its natural
color and beauty the oil vessels must be
restored to their normal condition. If is
on this principle that Natures Hair Re-
storative is compounded, aud it has
proved a complete success, wherever
faithfully applied. 1t Is not poisonous
dye, consequently the effect is gradual,
and in several cases two or three bottles
are necessary to produce the desired re-
suit. Sec advertisement.

SINGULAR CoINcIDENCE.-The Gin
cinnati Enquirer says: "The anniver-
sary of the battle of Bunker Hill was
an eventiul one to Mr.. Vallandigham.
He ran the Southern blockade June II,
1868; reached Dayton June II, 1864
laboring under an apprehension Of re-
newed military arrest; and died by acci-
dental violence, self-inhicted, June II,
1871. 1t so happened that it was seven
years after his return, and in a year in
which the figure seven so prominently
appears to mark the date"
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29

WALKING FEAT.-Weston, the eel
e5rated acakist, has been successful in
winning his wager, that he would walk
four hundred miles in five days. Dur
ing the last five miles both Weston and
the au iience were aroused to an intense
state of excitement, the latter cheering
almost continually, and the former win
ming applause by walking backwards,
running, jumping, and performing many
playful tricks in order to demonstrate
the large amount Of physical force be
held in reserve. At the conclusion of
the last round, he had eighteen minutes
to snare.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29

THE --LATEST DoDGE.-One of the
recent tricks Of swindlers is to send out
a statement from some pretended hotel
to parties stating that friend of theirs
had died suddenly at the hotel leaving
valuable baggage, money, jewelry,
watches, &C., and winding up by saying
that all these valuables would be for
warded on the remittance of small
sum of money to pay charges. Look
out tor them.

LIFE.-Men who have half a dozen
irons in the fire are not the ones to go
crazy. 1t is the man of voluntary or
compelled leisure. who mopes aud pines
and thinks himself into the mad house
or the grave. Motion is all natures
law. Action is mans salvation, physi-
can aud mental; and yet nine out of
ten are wisttully looking forward to the
coveted hour when they shall have leis-
ure to do nothiug-the very siren that
has lured to death many a successful"
man. He only is truly wise who lays
himself out to work till life's latest
hour, and that is the man who will live
the longest, and will live to most pur-
nose

b%AAND'1s
The burlington Ronte," so called
lies right in tie path of the Star of EN-
pire. It runs almost Immediately in the
centre of the great westward movement
of emigration. Crossing Illinois and
Iowa, it strikes the Missouri river al
three points.
These three points are the gateway'
into three great sections Of the trans
Missouri region.
The Northern gate is Omaha, where
the great Pacific road will take you to
the land of gold and grapes, sunny
mountains, and perpetual summer.
The middle gate is Plattsmouth, which
opens upon the south half of Nebraska,
south of the Platte river, region un-
surpassed on the continent for agricul-
ture ana grazing. Just here are the B.
& NJ. Railroad lands, concerning which
Geo. s. Harris, the land officer at Bur-
lington, Iowa, can give you all informa-
ton, and in the heart of them is Lin
coin, the State Capital and present ter
minus of the road.
The Southern gate leads to Kansas,
by connection with the St. Joe Road at
Hamburg, running direct to st. Joe and
Kansas City.
The trains OF the Burlington run
smoothly and safely, and make all con-
nections. 1t runs the best Of coaches
Pullman Palace and Pullman dining
cars, and should you take the journey
for the journeys sake alone, you will be
repaid; or take it to find home or q
farm, and you cannot find either better
than among the B. & NJ. lands, where
you can buy on ten years credit, and at
a low price. v1n2y1.

NOTICE no PosTMAsTERs.-Pos

NOTICE no PosTMAsTERs.-Post-
masters returning letters or papers ad-
dressed to persons who have moved
away should explain if possible what
has become of the person addressed Or
what is his present post Office address.
1t is not sufficient to say that the letter
or paper is uncalIed for or is not lifted.
The reason Of its not being taken out
should also be given or, if letter,
should be sent to the proper address.

FURNITURE PoLIsH.-One pint of
linseed oil, one wine-glass of alcohol;
mix well together; apply to the cloth
with linen rag; rub dry with soft
cotton cloth, and polish with silk
cloth. Furniture is improved by wash
ing it occasionally with soap-suds. Wipe
dry and rub over with very little lin-
seed oil upon clean sponge or flannel.
Wipe polished furniture with silk.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29

To BE ExposEO.-It is said that
those highly virtuous individuals who
send money to the New York "saw-
dust swindlers" in the hope of receiving
a return of counterfeit money are likely
to come to grief. Their letters are to
be retained and opened at the New
York post office, and the name of the
writer forwarded to the post master
where written, with instructions to post
it conspiciously in the Office with a
statement of the facts. The idea is a
good one, and if carried out, some rich
developemeuts may be expected.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1871-06-29

CURE FOR CoRNs.-Take q lomon,
cut off a piece of rind, then nick the
lemon so as to let IN the toe with the
corn-the pulp next the corn; tie this
on at night so that it cannot move; in
the morning with blunt knife you can
pare it away to great extent. Two or
