NEWSY NOTES.

An instrument has been invented for
registering the "pulse beat" An exchange
thinks that what is wanted more is one
that will register the "dead beat without
littering up the books of the merchant
and newspaper publisher.
Weather prophets are again at work.
Some of them predict coming cold sum-
mer, and say that as the mild winter of
1915 and 1916, and again in 1858 and 1859,
were followed by cold summers, therefore
the mild winter of 1899 and 1890 will be |
followed by an abnormally cold summer.
OF beef blood, door knobs are made; |
of wood pulp, doors; of paper, blinds;
sawdust is used in preparing plaster Stag |
from the blast furnace helps to make |
houses fire-proof; chips of granite from
the stone cutters yard are nodded into |
ornaments at one-tenth the cost of cut |
stone. These are some modern uses of |
waste materials.

from cancer, finally terminating in con-
sumption. She leaves three bright chill
dren TO mourn the loss of good mother.

A prominent medical man says, 1.-THE
cigarette has proved itself as fatal as
"Rough on Rats in many instances. 1t
seems to be especially dangerous to inn
mature boys. Smoking cigars seems to
have few or no harmful effects on mature
persons, but case after case of cigarette
poisoning is reported. Perhaps modera-
ton would not prove so harmful, but one
of the evils of the cigarette habit seems
to be an uncomfortable tendency to run
into excesses." Look out, boys.
The Board of Pardons has granted par
don in the case of Charles Laribee, who
was convicted of murder in this county
several years ago and his sentence COM
muted to Imprisonment for life. 1t will
be remembered that Laribee shot color
ed man named Williams while they were
out hunting in the woods near Oil City,
Laribee claiming that the darkey wanted
to commit suicide and implored him to
shoot him, and that they were both under
the influence of liquor. His good be-
havior since went far towards granting the
pardon with the Board.-Frdnkiin Ne,OS.
At the hatchery of the State Fish Com
mission at Erie they recently received 2O,-
100000 yellow pike eggs, which are hatch
ed out by this time. They are to be de-
posted in the lake and in the streams aud
smaller lakes of this part of Pennsylva-
MIA. This will give farmers and others
al "a Gt oaI in
terest in fish culture. If the water courses
are kept pure, they will be able to have
every stream in the State stocked inside
! of five years. The yellow pike is one of
! the best food fish in fresh water, is very
E hardy and grows to large size. In the
lake it is one of the choicest of fish, and in
the streams il becomes as game as trout.

The I1ttT Field and Farm was estab-

; the same. Twenty-Five years of work and
: twenty-five years of success No other
journal of it's class in this country has such
