A WIFE WORTH HAVING.

The nice things said about the Ma
tional Guard Of Pennsylvania by the
officers of the United States army are
being extensively printed all over the
country; but there is one incident in
connection with the calling out of the
guard to 90 to Homestead that is not
generally known. When the orders
reached Columbia for the company to
turn out the captain was not in town.
His wife, however, opened the tele-
gram, received late at night, saw the
importance Of it, and at once started
in to get out the members Of the COM
pany. She hitched up the team and
drove all over town to the residences
Of the members, and when daylight
dawned the company was ready to
start with full ranks. Such wife de
serves the highest praise. Harrisburg

peared here not long ago, giving his
name as Wheeler. The Post helped

him helping hand. One Of them
