this place, during this week.
Our Republican cotemporay says that
Mr.. z. s. We!ch, of Marsh Creek, sowed
rye on the 10Th day of January, set out
onions on the Goth and planted potatoes on
the Goth. This is turning winter into spring
in earnest.
Capt John A. Hunter of Half Moon,
we regret TO learn, has been seriously in
disposed for several weeks from rheuma-
tism of the nerves. But as he is under the
skillfu care of DIR. Bates, we hope and ex-
pect soon to hear of his recovery.
Among the pleasant and welcome call
during the past week are Hon. Samuel
Franck, of Miles township, Samuel Gill;
land, Esq, of College township, and Mr..
Austin Hinton, of Snow Shoe township.
The residence of Mr.. S. A. Brew, on
Spring street, was always neat and We
did not notice that it required repainting.
Nevertheless, We notice that 1t has received
fresh coat of paint sluring the past week,
seeming to be just shade lighter than 1t
was before.
Some of the country roads have been
in deplorable condition during the last
month, but it has not decreased, in the
least the large sales made BY s. A. Brew
& Son. People do not allow anything to
keep them from making their regular err
rands to this popular store
The people of Millheim do not die off
very fast, but as it is an ancient burg
every lot in their cemetery was long ago
disposed of. To make room for future
growth, but we hope not for increased
mortality, the advisabiity of extending the
present limits of the cemetery is under
discussion.
"A protracted meeting of great and
growing interest is now in progress at
Waddle's school house, on Buffalo Run,
conducted by Rev. Bowse, Many have
been converted and large numbers are
seeking salvation. May the crowds con-
tinue to attend and the interest increase
until all shall find rest for their souls.
The meat market in connection with
the store of Sechler & Co. is Of compare

neatness and excellence which character

AT their literary society last Thursday
evening the colored folks debated upon the
question as to whether or not whale is
fish. Mr.. Charley Garner and Mr.. Skin
ner participated in the debate, and all de-
rived much enjoyment from II. Mr.. Skin
ner, we believe, supported the negative of
the proposition, and won the debate.
Never has that old, reliable grocery
firm of Sechler Il Co. offered such induce
ments to customers as at present. All who
visit the store are favorably impressed
with its neatness, and the obliging man
ners of Messrs. ii. Sechler, Harry Teas
and all connected with the establishment
1t costs nothing to call and inspect the
store, even If you do not buy.
! The attention OF the public Is directed
to the fact that the new patented gate
which is being introduced by Prof. Robert
Moore has merits which make 1t superior
to any we have heretofore seen or used.
