Mr. Mason -His Bicycle-A Wild Ride.
Comorn, King George Co.,
Jan. 25fh. 1000.

Mr.. f.. Wexford Mason is one of the
most prominent and deservedly popu-
lar gentlemen in this county, but, all
the same, be has bis ups and
downs" " In lfo, aud il is due to one
OF his very recent unenviable
" downs" " that be is now nursing
some cuts, scratches, bruises aud
wounds about bis face, head, body
and limbs. Mr. Mason loves diver
sion now and then, and sometimes
dis fearless courage predomiuates
over his mature judgment. Soft was
tho other dIy. BE wanted to enjoy
the balmy, spring-like atmosphere by
taking an inylgorating horseback
ride on modern " high. pitched "
bicycle, and, being somewhat sppre-
hensive of his venture, he engaged a
tIusty nephew, skilled in the art, to
hold the thing by the tail" to keep
it from rearing up behindn until
he could get we'll under way" At
first Mr.. Mason rode cautiously and
the bicycle seemed to promise good
behavior. AS the speed increased the
hilarious rider spied a harbed-wire
fence, skirted By jungle of brisrs
and thOrns, To he man holding the
Aying machine }" by the tail be

yells Of " Whoa Whoa ! darn you,
who's Somebody run here and stop

awsy-somebody head us off quick,
or we'll break our darn necks >,
These uuayailiDg commands aud ap-
peals gave place to volleys of un-
scriptufal expletives, and next came
the awful crash-the bicycle collided
with the barbed.wire fencel When
the unmansgeable wheel dashed into
the jungle OF locust bushes, studded
with stubborn thorns. and struck the

accounts, was thrown up on the barb.

GLASS PLANT NOTES.
Gathered by Local Reporter and Clip
ped from Exchanges.

About sixty glassworkers of this place
attended the mass meeting held at
Falls Creek Saturday evening. Ex-
Sheriff T.. G. Burns, the liveryman,
furnished rigs to haul the glassworkers
to and from Falls Creek. The Reyn-
oldsville delegation took the Sugar
Hill Flute band along. This was the
largest and most enthusiastic crowd
that ever visited Falls Creek, but the
town was equal to the occasion and gave
the visitors royal reception. Falls
Creek WAS dressed In gala attire, sur
passing anything Of the kind that the
town ever attempted before. The par
ade was large one and the pyrotechnics
during the parade were equal to a
Fourth OF July celebration. Represen-
tatives Of the four trades-blowers,
gatherers, hatteners and cutters-from
Kane, Mt. Jewett, Smetbport, Wilcox
and Bradford were also present. After
the parade a meeting was held in Nc
Donald's hall. The next meeting will
be held at Kane in the near future.
The Progress Glass plant Of Mt. jew

the property is advertised for sale on a

The Bellefonte Glass Co. has been re-
organized into semi.co-operative

is to start as soon as possible under the

ers is said to have signed. Comnloner
and GiosScOrker.
One Of the reasons Why the men en-
ployed In window glass houses are rep
resented by such strong union is that
they are doing business on business
principles and that they are all loyal to
the core and willing to contribute from
their wages to the support Of their
craft. There is no union on the face Of
the earth to-day that is more liberal in
contributing to the needs of members
than that of the glass workers, and the
whole secret of its success lies In this
fact. Here in Falls Creek. where the
wages run from $3.50 to $3.50 each a
month the amount contributed TO the
support OF those in the union and out Of
work runs up to a good sized sum.
Twenty-Five per cent. OF their wages Is
given by the men for this purpose, and

UNDER QUARANTINE.

Quarantine, from the French word
quarantaine. meaning a period of forty
days, is for ced abstinence from com
munication with people.
Ships leaving country where there
is or has been infectious diseases, such
as yellow fever, plague or cholera, are
quarantined. From vessels that are
quarantined no goods can be taken on
land and the people are not allowed to
go on land until everything on the ship
has been fumigated.
Quarantine is not limited TO sea
frontier, but Is enforced on land. Here
in our own town house is quarantined
If any person or persons living In that
house have diphtheria, scarlet fever or
any other contagious disease.
BY quarantining people contagious
and infectious diseases are kept from
being spread over town or city, but IL
is not very pleasant when you are sent
away from home and miss week or
two Of school. Everybody is afraid of
you and perhaps you have not seen the
sick person for week. The nearest
you can get to your home is to the door.
The quarantine for diphtheria and
scarlet fever lasts month. A month
seems long time when nobody can
come in the house to see you but the
doctor and you cannot go to any public
place. A card is put up on your house
which strictly forbids anyone to enter.
Quarantine is sometimes enforced be-
tween countries Of Europe: this is very
annoying to travellers and is a great loss
to commerce.
History declares quarantine regula-
tions to have been first established by
the Venetians in 1927 A. d.. but the
practice must have been much older for

John Oliver Of Philadelphia, as follows:
] was In an awful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue
coated, pain continually in back and
sides, no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicians had given
me up. Then | was advised to use
Electric Bitters; to my great Joy, the
first bottle made decided improvement.

and am now we'll man. I know they
