School succeeded in raising quite an
amount, although we could not learn
the exact sum.
The showers which have recently
visited us have helped the lumbermen
up the Tionesta, raising the smaller
creeks, and, consequently the Tionesta.
The mills are running quite steadily.
Those on Coon Creek, we understand,
are running night and day.
The sidewalks in our town are
getting dilapidated to such an extent
that there is some danger to life and
limb in trying to perambulate them
after dark. Whose business is it to
attend TO these things? Repairs
should be made at once, before the
borough has some big damages to pay.
Base ball has just struck us. We
have it bad. No one coming to our
place now would consider it dull. The
boys deafen us with their shouts of
Judgment" and we are afraid it will
come before some of the most gram
matical swearers among them are pre-
pared for it.
The Hunt well, on Hemlock, one
mile from Fryburg, is producing two
barrels per day. Two more wells are
going down in the immediate vicinity.
AS Tom. Van Giesen says, "It begins
to look teetLe suspicious, if only don't
take different raoute," for the coun-
try about Tionesta.
M. Henry is moving the building
formerly used by Mr.. Mechling as all
Office, so as to make an addition to his
house of it. He does not need the Of
fee as an Office, and it will give him
much more room in his house, and al
so prove an addition to the looks of
his residence.
Mr. u. ). Lacy, of Philadelphia,
who formerly resided at Coon Creek
Mills, and Miss S. A. Foord, of Pitts
burgh, owners of the Galenza mill prop
erty Oh Coon Creek, were in this sec
ton last week. They spent Thursday
and Friday at Coon Greek Mills. They

-Jno. Reck & Sons, are about put
ting up an extensive steam saw mill
on Ross Run, which will give employ
ment to quite number of men. The
Recks are chuck full of business, and
we expect to see this mill do q great
amount of work, when it gets to run
ming. The steam fixings have all been
purchased, and the mill will be COM
pleted very shortly.
w. E. Lathy and wife, William
and Susie May and Miss Emma Shreve,
will visit Niagara Falls the first of
next week. We wish them a pleasant
time, but advise the male members of
the party to look out for the hackmen
of that wicked place, as they are up to
"tricks that are vain" We know how
it is ourself, to use q current phrase.
Two arbitrations took place at
the Court House last week, one Nor
gan VS.. Clark, which was settled, and
the other Forest Co. VS.. Jno. G. Bran.
don, ex-Treasurer of Forest Co., in
which tho arbitrators awarded the de-
tendant verdict in $492.01. Those
doing business for the county gave no.
tice that they would appeal.
-Jno. d. Hunt, Esq, who was in
} town last week, tells of a gigantic tan,
merry which is going up in Howe tp.,
about eight miles from Sheffield, which
is employing about $50 men in its cree
tion, and will employ as many and
probably more, to carry it on. This
is the largest institution of the kind
we know of anywhere, and Forest
County is ahead as usual.
Mrs. Winans, who has been an in
valid for something over two years
and who has been confined to her bed
most of the time, was taken to Water
loo, Venango county, on Thursday o.
last week, to the home of her mother
Mrs. Seaton. She will stay there some
time, and her friends hope that q
change of air may benefit, if not en-
tirely cure her.
THE REASON WHY.-The immediate
cause of premature fading or blauch
ing of the hair is an obstruction O.
f the oil vessels which afford the color
ing matter. The remote causes may
, be general i'll health, trouble of mind
etc. Henee,in order to restore its natur
al color and beauty the oil vessels
must be restored to their normal con
dition. 1t is on this principle thai
