how TO make business lively in dull
times. They insert conspicuous ad.
vertisemens in the JOURNAL, to the

that they will give all their customers
full value for their money, and will
fully live up to the announcements in
their advertisement. Their stock Is
complete in every department, and
their prices so low that all can be ac-
commodated. Do not forget to call on
them when in Bellefonte.

"A real pleasant and quick ride we
had on last Thursday over the new rail-
road to Bellefonte. Tho track seems to
be In frst-class condition and travel is
already quite lively. The present
schedule however is not very commo-
dious for passengers from Coburn.
This end of the county must either get
up very early to reach Spring Mills in
time for the morning train leaving
there ut 4.35, or else 20 In the forenoon
train leaving Coburn at 9.45 and return
at 10. 35 to Spring Mills, six mites from
home, without any chance of getting
further that night. We were informed
at Beilefonte that change OF schedule
will take place I'm the near future, and
for the sake of oar end we hope the
change may be for the better. The
fare from Cohurn to Bellefonte is
90 cts.
