M. w. McAlarney, editor of Harris
burg Telegraph died at his home in
Harrisburg yesterday, aged 60 years.
Mr.. M'A. was well known by many of
citizens.
Anyhow football isn't game for de-
cent people to play.-Butler Times. 1t
would not be too scandalous, perhaps,
to say that the Times made a touch
down by that little proverb.
The services at Baptist Church every
Sunday at II a. M, are very interesting.
Come next Sunday morning and hear
one of Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman's SER
mons. Sunday School at IL o'clock.
1t is being urged that a postal clerk
be placed on the flyer between Empo-
rum and Buffalo. This would be of
great service to the public and would
afford very rapid transit between Buff
falo, Philadelphia and Washington.
Representative Sibley said recently
that the United States could export 40,
100000 tons of coal to Europe, pay the
freight thereon, and still be able to
compete with prices existing there.
This, he says, would be great boon to
American miners.
Judge Durham, of the Sullivan-Wy-
oming district, has made rule that
hereafter in civil suits involving less
than $40 he will hear only five witnesses
on side. This measure is designed to
stop packing the court room with wit
nesses in petty cases in order to run up
bills of costs.
At dinner given in his honor at
New York recently, Mark Twain, speak
ing of certain criticisms said: 'Itsnot
the slanders that hurt man; it's the
truth. The world doesn't know you
half so we'll as you know yourself
When you wake up at o'clock in the
morning with that feeling of shame
ano sort of desolation, it's not the
things that the world says you have
done that makes you feel that way; it's
what you have done that only you
know"
Some men, remarks the Punxsutaw-
ney Spirit, are Grabbed and irritable
They keep their wives in constant fear
of them. And some women are con-
stantly whining and sulking, and max
ing life miserable for their husbands
Both "put up with it" to avoid scandal
They should not. Life is to short The
home is the place where both the man
and woman should find rest and solace
and sympathy. There is something
wrong with the man or woman who en-
joys being away from home most of the
time. Without a home in the true
sense of the word, life is not worth liv-

Paradise. The woman who can see
nothing but faults in her husband,
should not try to cure him of those
faults by curtain lectures. She may
nag him until both are wrinkled and
gray, and he will still be the same man.
Nobody, 80 far as we have any records,
was ever scolded into virtue.
A curious case is reported from the
Third ward, says the Franklin News.
"a number of chickens belonging to
people living near the Asbestos Works
have been in the habit of feeding on
the siftings of the fiber asbestos thrown
out in the yard for some time and the
feed seems to be an incentive to make
the fowls lay, but the peculiar fact of
the case is that the eggs cannot be
cooked. They are like the asbestos
not in the least affected by the fire. 1t
is impossible to boil or fry the hen fruit
laid by the chickens that feed on the
siftings and they can be laid on the
| hottest fire for day at time without
effect. 1t is thought, however, that the
eggs will hatch and genius of an ex-
perimenting turn of mind has secured
an option on all such eggs and he will
purchase an incubator in the hope of
securing lot of fire-proof feathers"
1t will not be strange if the above ex-
pertinent proves success. A man
near Emporium, whose rooster lost
leg replaced the member by slipping
clothespin on the stub. Shortly after he
