A man dropped into a newspaper
Office in this state one day recently,
and informed the bookkeeper to stop
the paper which was being sent to a
man, who, he said, was dead. The
bookkeeper looked up the name and
finding that the dead subscriber was
in arrears three years, changed the
postofiice ON the mailing list to
HI, and sent the paper right along.
On Saturday of last week a young
man named Clarence Aikey, employ
ed on farm near Hartelton, took a |
day off for n hunt after pheasants.
While hunting with friend back of
Hartelton, they saw rabbit. He
got on stump to shoot, and in the
act of drawing his gun to him, the
trigger caught and both loads Che
having double-barreled gum went
off, disemboweling him.
"He was an employee of the Penn
sylvania railroad shops and had gone
back to work after a several months
lay-off. When the dinner hour ar
rived he opened his pail and took
therefrom piece of dry bread and
some sugar and began to eat. His
fellow employees looked on in aston
ishment, and asked him if that was
all he had to eat. With quivering
voice he answered that it was, and
volunteered the further information
that he and his wife had not had
bite to eat the day before.-Harris-
burg Telegraph Of Monday.
The other day very modest and
absent minded young woman of
Monongahala, Washington county,
went to the city mill for some -four.
She gave the clerk what she thought
was neatly folded and ironed pillow
slip. The clerk emptied one scoop
of -four and it went through to the
floor. Just then horrifying dis
covery was made what had been
taken for dainty little sack had
two outlets. and each outlet was
trimmed with embroidery. The
olarlr tainted. and has STAYED tainted |
