Hoods Sarsaparilla Proverb Cal
ender for 1900 is one of the prettiest
we have seen. 1t is borne in front
of two little girls, whose fresh,
sweet faces and dainty robes OF
blue and pink form pleasing pict-
ure upon which to look during the
coming year. The calender is
printed from large, plain type and
gives valuable information. The
calender is made to stand alone or
it can be suspended from the wall.
Everyone will want Hoods Cal
ender and you should ask your
druggist for it at once. You can
obtain one, if more convenient, by
sending 6 cents in stamps to c. l.

THE PENALTY PAID.
Edward Cressinger Dies on the GaIIows for
the Murder Of Daisy Smith.

The law has taken its course, and
Edward Cressinger, who so cruelty
took the life of sixteen year old
Daisy Smith, on her fathers farm
in lower Augusta township, North
cumberland county, October 10th,
1898, has paid the price of his crime.
The convicted murderer was led
from his cell to the scaffold in the
Sunbury Jail yesterday at 1924
o'clock in the forenoon. His
steps, we are informed by Sheriff
Black, who witnessed the execu-
ton, were firm and steady, and his
cheeks rosy. After the straps had
been arranged about his knees and
ankles, he was given an opportun-
ity to speak. He said : "I'll say
good bye; wish you fellows good
luck. am guilty of what did
and hope to be forgiven, but l
was not the only one in the crowd.
Take good care of yourselves, fell
lows, that's all" Dr. Stoner ad-
justed the rope, the black cap was
put on his head and he called out
Goodbye, you fellows !"
His voice was firm, but he spoke
in a hesitating manner. The last
word had just left his mouth when
the trap was sprung and his body
shot downward, a distance Of FIVE
feet.
After being pronounced dead by
the physicians, the body was taken
in charge by the father.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is

Weather Crop Bulletin.

U. S. Department of Agriculture,
Climate and Crop Bulletin of the
Weather Bureau, Washington section,
for the week ending Monday, April
I'd, is as follows:
The week was about an average one
for this time of year, and was very
favorable to the growth of grass and
grain. There was hardly enough sun
shine for the rapid growth of veget-
ables. There we're showers near the
end of the week, which were quite
copious in the wheat districts of the
eastern section. There is now an
abundance of water in the soil. Seed
ing and planting has been interrupted
on wet, clayey soils, but, as a rule
seeding l. mari done.
Fall wheat is in very fiourishing
condition, and spring grain where it
is up looks very fine.
Latest advices indicate that the
damage to the fruit crop by the frosts
OF ten days ago was not great, except
in a, few localities. Some prune
orchards in Clarke county were very
badly damaged, as indicated by a
report from Ridgefeld. As rule
only the earlier varieties were injured
and the later ones escaped. 1t is the
prevailing opinion that, unless further
damage is done by frosts, there will
still be an abundant fruit crop.
