SOME SOLID FACTS.
People Who Intend Going to the Fair
Should Read This.

People Who Iutend Going to the Fair
Should Read This.
A gentleman who recently returned from
Chicago paid the following tribute to the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad and its officials "YOu
who have not visited the Worlds Fair and
are debating on the best route read this !;
There are a number of excellent routes, but
none better than the popular and reliable
Pennsylvania This cannot be contradicted,
1t is the best equipped, has the most obliging
and careful conductors and attendants, and
makes the quickest and suTest time. The
Pennsylvania Company operates its own line
to Chicago and all its patrons are made to
feel as safe as if they were in their own
homes. For trihe in addition to the
ordinary rates tickets can be secured for a
quicker train, with less stops and extra
accommodations. There is nothing you want
and cannot get on the celebrated "Limited"
OF Columbian Express" Twenty-four
hours from the time you leave home you are
at Chicago as refreshed as if you had just
left your bed and stepped outside the door OF
your own house. The berths and meals are
| first class. What do a few dollars extra
amount to when you can be made happy and
contented. Cheap excursions are sometimes
more costly than first class trip. What you
save by cheap excursion you lose by loss o
| time, miserable accommodations and pool
attendance. This has been the experience O
many. The Pennsylvania is a regular "al
wool and a yard wide" railroad and there il
nothing cheap about it, The General Passen
ger Agent J. r. Wood, and Assistant, Georg'
w. Boyd, are two Of the most experienced
and gentlemanly railroad officials in th'
country and hence their road is a good one
This is the testimony of all who have don,
business with these gentlemen"

'THIRDE EDITION
A Mahauoy Opinion.

To.days Philadelphia Press contained the
following account Of the game from its
Mahanoy City correspondents "The game
here to-day between the home team and
Shenandoah was unfair from the start. The
umpire, said to be fakir and pugilist of this
city, was very remarkable for the number of
RINK decisions particularly when the home
team got to the bat, in calling strikes balls
and vice versa when Shenandoah was there.
In the beginning Of the eighth inning
Bradley of the visiting team, wrenched his
knee and was thus compelled to leave the
box. setley, another good pitcher, took his
place. johnson, the first man of the home
team to the bat, had five balls pitched to
him, one foul, the other four called balls.
A number of enthusiasts standing behind the
catcher said at least three of them were
strikes The next man to the bat was Hun
singer. The umpire called three strikes balls,
when Setey objected to the decision. At
this the umpire pulled out his watch, saying,
81 allow you five minutes" but actually did
not allow one minute to pass when he threw
his hands over his head waving the home
team to come in off the field and gave the
game to Mahanoy City.
1T was then that the mob rushed in on the
diamond, when free fight took place. Setley
was the principal target and it was only fOr
the assistance of five prominent men, three OF
Mahanoy and two from Shenandoah that he
escaped from the park alive. The visitors
were finally hustled into a large bus in
waiting and driven home. For 800 yards an
angry mob followed the team and hurled
stones, sticks and other missiles at them
How some of them escaped serious injury is
indeed, miraculous"

If there is one thing in this world that

to a good performer on a good instrument,
be it piano or organ or what-not But Pad

some of the rattle-traps that are palmed off
on us nowadays for pianos And 1 saw this
fact forcibly illustrated one evening last week
at private residence in town. Had l not
previously known of the high standing of
the musician, l should have come away from
that party with very poor opinion of the
player. But as it was l understood the diff

such pianos Why not buy PIANO once

Well, girls, if you all didn't have pretty
shoes this fall, it most certainly is not the
fault of our enterprising shoe men. The
styles were never before as pretty as they are
this season. Take Balls, on South Main
street, for instance, and see what a display
he is making. He is introducing a novelty
in the way of shoes for evening wear, and
when once you've seen them you will taboo
the satin covered shoes and slippers. This
novelty they call the gase, soft as silk, and
comes in every possible hue and tint
Ferry's-iusty termed the Peoples Shoe
store''-is also displaying shoe known as
the "Lady Cleveland" a common sense, low
heeled shoe with something entirely new in
the way of indentations through the leather
giVing it a very striking appearance. A
shoe of beauty is more than joy forever.

Visitors to the Worlds Fair will not find
complete satisfaction until they take in
Buffalo BnPs Wild West Show, which is
exhibited Just outside the fair grounds on
63rd street. 1t is an opportunity of life

visitor. Mr.. Cody Buffalo Bill has
an aggregation of one hundred In
dians Sioux, Comanche, Pawnees and
BlackfeetJ 70 Cowboys, so Mexican Yanqueros,
25 South American Gauchos, 25 Rio EGrande

Russian Cossacks. The massacre Of General
Custer and his command and the ambush are
almost realistic enough to cause one to leave

one who personates the brave general. No

who are able to fully discharge the maternal
duty of nursing during the whole of the natu-
raj period are few.
Until within recent years infants deprived
of mothers milk have been reared in a hap
hazard and unscientifc manner with the usual
result that the enormous mortality during the
first five years of life has been reproach to
medical men.
But all this is now changed. Practical
scientific men of the highest standing have
devoted themselves exclusively to these pro-
blems of infant feeding Many results have
come, but the greatest and most practical is the
preparation of lactated food-next to mothers
milk, the most nourishing, strengthening,
readily digested, and palatable food that can
be given baby.
Very many babies that could not be reared,
that pined and wasted on other food, have
grown fat, ruddy, and strong when fed on
lactated food.
Just now when the death reports show a
fearful prevalence of diarrhGa and cholera
infantum, lactated food is doing its best
work
1t is saving the lives of babies in nearly
every city and town in the Union. Every day
most touching letters come from mothers
whose babies have escaped or safely gone
through dangerous complaints by the help Of
lactated food.
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Graf, of Cornelius
Oregon, writes;
"Our baby was born in October, After
trying milk and several kinds of infant foods
we began using lactated food. On this she
thrived and grew well and strong, We regarC
lactated food as all that is claimed for it."
