How to Eat IL Watermelon.

This is an art acquired only by ex-
perience. Asa dessert it is not a sue
cess. 1t falls too heavily on dinner.
Like the JOURNAL, it is best enjoyed
by itself, or like pretty girl, it loses
half its charm by being mixed in a
crowd. The melon should be cold. 1t
should be ripe. Its flesh should blush
like a graduate Its heart should glow
like IL sun kissed cloud at close Of day
and its temperature should be as chilly
as the smile of maid Of sixty summers.
When you get such a treasure do not
bother with other goods. Open 1t, gaze
on it, bury your face in its sweetness,
and let your appreciation run riot.

\ Horse Case,

Last Monday DR.. Brawlier, of
Somerset county, Pa, arrived here
and identified an alleged stolen horse
as his. Fl. l.. Sheetz, charged with
the theft, was lodged in the lookup.
A number of bills coming in against
the doctor for the arrest of Sheetz and
care of horse, he enlisted in brief
drunk. Tuesday night he went to the
residence of w. r. Percy, scared
some of the family and disturbed the
rest-a proceeding which Mr.. Percy
resented next day by getting out a
warrant. Wednesday night he and
Sheetz spent together in the lookup.
But Sheriff Good came over during the
day. The doctor sold his horse, paid
his bills and left, Sheetz meanwhile
accompanying the Sheriff. 1t is
thought there are circumstances ex-
tenuating which will eventuate in
Sheetz's favor.
