Some people never know the value OF a
good thing until they have practical Illus
tration. This fact has been brought forcibly
to my mind by an occurrence that should
teach some people lesson, especially our
business people who are seeking the patron-
age of the public Shenandoah is blessed
with a sufficient supply Of peddlers, who ply
their trade from door TO door. Nine times
out of every ten, where purchases are made
from these men, the same article can be
bought from the town merchants at a much
less cost and a better article. The great
trouble is our business men, with few ex-
ceptions, fail to appreciate the great power Of
the daily press. The wife of South Main
street merchant bought a new tangled teapot
from peddler. When she explained the
great merits of the article to her husband on
his arrival at the house, he reproached her,
saying that he had the same thing in his
store for less money. The rejoinder was to
the point and unanswerable; "Why don't you
advertise? One never knows what YOU have
in your store"

President Harris, Of the Reading company,
is credited as being an excel ent inauciera and
a thoroughly equipped railroad man. don't
question the truth of these two assertions, but
l do question the wisdom Of his selection Of
Pottsville as a place Of abode during the
summer. My reason for this is that the
Affidavit editor of the county seat will
have him in his grave err long. One day that
sheet comes ont in an exclusive interview,
with bold headlines, stating that the Presi-
dent of the Reading will resign, the next day
he may resign, and the following day he will
not resign. Although President Harris
would not talk, the reporter of the Affidavit
sheet was equal to the emergency, and inter
viewed its own editor, palming it off on the
public as an exclusive interview with the
head of the Reading For the life of me,
Mr.. Editor, don't know whether Harris is
still President of the Reading Company or
not, and don't suppose he knows himself after
Reading the aforesaid sheet. viii you kindly
scan the files of the latter and let suffering
public know "Shere are we atW What
makes me a little credulous about these
interviews is that the editors affidavit was
not attached thereto.

orchards, and looking in vain for cure for
peach yelows the scourge Of the peninsula

years crop thousands Of trees were cut down
and their stumps pulled out as uselessy

result Of marketing the crop has made the
