SOME people get very "work brit

never SO large as it is now and is
constantly increasing.

Pa, are trying to rent suitable rooms
for the purpose.

THE little village Of Jollytown,
just across the Greene county line,
has of late been sadly afflicted with
fatal diseases. Typhoid fever has
been raging and also measles of a
very malignant type. AS many as
four deaths have been reported in
one week.
LAST week in the rush our Flick
ersville letter was overlooked; our
Arnettsville letter was shortened to
some extent and many other matters
were omitted. If the pressure con-
tinues, the already large pages of the
New DOMINION will have to be further
enlarged
IT has been decided to charge a
small admission fee to the closing
exercises of the public school. The
idea is good one. 1t will prevent
the attendance of a certain worthless
class who annoy parents who are
anxious to hear the performances of
their children.

day last. He fell and dislocated his
left wrist alarming his parents to a
considerable extent DR.. Casselberry

The SCHOOL BoARD.-It seems to
be understood on all hands that the
present School Board for the indie
pendent district will be called to serve
again. Their management has been
of the best character, and their ad
ministration given general satisfac-
tion. They have paid off debt Of
nearly one thousand dollars without
the taxpayers knowing it. They
have been faithful servants. Let us
re-elect them.

the country and merchant of this
place. 1t seems the gentleman had
just been making some purchases
and was carrying several large bun
dies. Before getting far he was &C
costed by another man thus: "Why
don't you come in and give me 6
trial. / can fit you out cheap?
.That may be" says the farmer
''but I have been buying goods fol-
myself and boys at Hirschman's fol
the last six years, and am very wei
satisfied. and do not want tt

polite good morning, the farmer
went his way.
IT is believed by those who are il
a position to know that if there ar,
no frosts hereafter there will be /.

The above truth is mighty ane

takes more than an ordinary mint
TO comprehend the vast amount O
truth contained in the expression
