Rev. $. L. Orwig and family who
are visiting friends at Watsontown,
have written back that they are
compelled to protract their visit ow
ing to the unfortunate sickness of
their daughter. Miss Sadie, whose
health does not permit her to re-
turn with them.
"Hust do an older hute far mich,

went away with one of our old fish
ing hats.
The members of the Centreville
Rod and Gun Club who camped at
White Deer Creek last week return
ed Friday without having secured
any venison. Some son-of-a- gun
scattered bits of bacon through the
woods which were seasoned with
strichnine and three of their dogs
were poisoned and two are missing.
Only one of the poisoned dogs died,
the other two were saved by giving
them liberal doses of lard.
A man may travel lifetime and
not find another fatherand son more
accommodating than Ex-Sheriff Ner
B. Middleswar'th of Mcclure, and his
father Abraham X. On Monday of
last week the old gentleman furnish
ed us with accommodation during
the day and in the evening Ner con.
veyed us and our baggage for n
weeks hunt into Little Valley, re-
turning after night, "all for love, as
he termedit. Such kindness can not
be passed by without comment. and
when such men are placed in the bal
ance people will always know where
to find us.
The mountains, just now are II
scene of splendor no artist can imi-
tate. Natures hand here deiies the
pencil of the most skillful painter.
To look to the north or south of our
valley, you behold one vast flower
garden, as it were, with all the
variegated colors, imaginable. 1t is
n sight worth seeing from distance.
This valley is fringed with this beau
tiful sight, while in the body are the
beautiful green fields of young wheat
and the standing acres of grey in
corn. Really, it is II scene that will
fill the lover of nature with rapture
and of which the eye of man will not
tire-it is an earthly paradise of
beauty.
LIAING on THE REPUTATION OF 9TH
ERs.-'Take everything that have
but my good name leave me that
and L am content So said the
philosopher. So say all manufac-
turers of genuine articles to that
horde of imitators which thrives up
on the reputation of others. The
good name of Allcock's Porous Plas
ters has induced many adventurers
to put in the market limitations that
are not only lacking in the best ele-
ments of the genuine article, but are
often harmful in their effects.
The public should be on their
guard against these frauds, and,
when an external remedy is needed,
be sure to insist upon having All
cocks Porous Plaster.
