EYER. BARKLBY NUPTIALS.

A wedding, though a private affair,
of particular interest to Bloomsburg
society was that of Miss Josephine
Barkley, daughter of the late Charles
G. Barkley, to Mr.. Warren II. Eyer,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. f. C. Eyer, and
a well-known civil engineer of Blooms
burg.
The event was celebrated at the
home of the brides mother, corner of
Market and Fourth Streets, this town,
Tuesday morning. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. DR.. Henkel, of
Catawissa, an uncle of the groom, and
was witnessed by only the relatives
and few immediate friends of the
couple. Following the ceremony, a
wedding breakfast was partaken of,
after which Mr.. and Mrs. Eyer were
driven to the East Bloomsbury station
where they boarded the Pennsylvania
train for provincial wedding tour,
which will include Philadelphia, New
York, Buffalo and other cities. Upon
their return they will take up their
residence in portion OF the Barkley
residence. Mr.. and Mrs. Eyer have
a host of friends, who extend felicita-
tions and hope that their paths in life
will extend through pleasant places.

said he was glad his dog had BIT the
ear off that hog and that he'd like to
serve Joel the same way. Deacon
Spooner ratified on the stovepipe with
his zane until he quoted the racket,
and then he said:
"Feller patriots, but have we no pub
lie speerit among us|
I'VE have" yelled the crowd.
"Then let us exhibit II. Bein my
cooper shop Is the highest buildin in
town and bein the American flag has
got to fip-fap in the breeze to be seen
and v%enerated, | unselfshly offer to
put up a pole and take charge Of the
flag"
$50 do L" shouts every man In the
crowd.
Then Squar Joslyn made a speech.
He told how a million men had died for
that flag; how its stars and bars had
made tyrants tremble; how a young
nation had worshiped it and made all
the world respect it. He wound up after
ten minits by offerin to float it from
his boss barn, but only Kisses and
groans follered. There was signs that
three or four patriots would SOC be
punchin each others head when Lish
Billings strolled in in that careless way
Of his. Deacon Spooner pounded and
ratified till he got order and then said:
Il want to hear from Lish Billings
on this matter. Mebbe he can suggest
somethin. Lish, what place in Jericho
would you say the American flag ought
to float from"
How many stars are there on the
American flag"' calmly asks Lish.
Nobody could tell.
"Well. how many stripes"
Nobody could tell.
"'Pears to me-" said Lish as he start
ed to wander out ag'in-"'pears to me
that as none Of you can tell the differ
ence between the American flag and a
tablecloth you'd better hang up an old
army blanket most anywhere and let
1t go at that"
And at the end Of five minits more
there wasn't a patriot left in the post
office, and nothin more has ever been
said about buyin a public flag.

Beauty was a snow white pigeon of

we never knew. but we soon discovered
that Beauty regularly acted as maid OF
all work to Tom. She fetched and car
ried morsels of food at his imperlous
command. and one of her unvarying
duties was the preening Of her mas
ter's feathers. Tom was very much of
a dandy. His coal black plumage al
ways appeared perfectly dressed and
shining. but the arduous labor Of his
toilet was performed for him twice
every day by the humble and affection
ate pigeon.
"Our fine gentleman would come in
from n roll in the dust or a dip In the
fountain and. seating himself upon a

Instantly Beauty would descend to his

How They Broke Up.

An amusing story Is related in Ca
madam Savage Folk" Of the manner In
which an adjournment was taken by q
mass meeting. A missionary who had
started a school among the Indians met
with opposition, and the meeting had
been called in support Of the rival
scheme.
There were several speakers who de-
nounced the school in existence. We
replied vigorously, showing the efh-
cheney Of the school and denouncing
In turn the methods adopted by the OPP
position. An Indian chief produced
some specimens Of work done at the
school, and several speakers supported
the work as it was being done. The
climax was reached when a gentleman
rose and said:
81 move the whole thing bust!"
The chairman put the motion.
ut is moved and seconded that the
whole thing bust"
The audience sprang to their feet
and, waving hats, yelled "Busted" and
made for the door. Thus ended the
first and last opposition IN that matter.

And Of course the child concludes
something terrible has happened to 1t
and cries vigorously. A little baby il
pitied can soon be brough, to a weep

matter with it. Just call up your most
tender. sympathetic tone; ask him that
time honored question. Did they boos
the baby?" and the little lips will begin
to culver, the mouth to droop. and soon
a wall breaks forth that is meant to in
dictate that they" did.
OF course children will cry some
times. Crying is al institution that
cannot be done away with. Crying,
more or less. is expected with the advent
of the little stranger, but the more or
less depends largely on the parents. A
child can be laughed into a good hu.

merous little hurts he gets, those that
are really of no importance, treat
them as a good Joke. Laugh at them.
and the baby will quickly laugh with
you. 1t doesn't take long to chase the
tears away. Besides doing away with
a lot Of unnecessary crying 1t teaches
him not to mind little hurts and devel-

does not apply to serious mishaps, but
to those numerous little bumps which
youngsters are continually getting and
which a little pity quickly magnifes

Never giving a child anything he
cries for is another excellent way to
nip in the bud the crying habit. If it is
proper for him to have. promise 1t to
him when he stops crying. Reward his
good behavior. not his bad. OF course
If bad habits in this direction are form

It was Enos Hopkins who got the
idea that Jericho should prove her pa
triotism to the world at large by dis
playin the American flag for seven
days a week. He got the idea one
Sunday mornin as he lay in bed, and
he Rugged it to his soul and chuckled
over it for a week before he said any
thing to a Twin soul. Everybody knew
by his actions that somethin was up,
but they couldn't figger out exactly
what it was. At length. when Sat
urday night came. and there was the
usual crowd at the postoffice. he shot
off his gun, He had his speech all pre-
pared. He told how the American flag
was first flung to the b~reeze-how
men cheered for liberty as they saw
it-how it had given freedom to a con
tinent and brought happiness to mil
lions. Men had fought cheerin for
that flag. and men had died blessin it.
He wanted it h'isted in Jericho at sun
rise every day in the year. and he
wanted children to cry for it and men
and women to venerate it. Monday
was wash day In Jericho, and front
