An exchange says the biggest trust
on earth has been discovered at last. 1t
is the country newspaper trust. They
trust everybody, get cussed for trusting

busted ior trusting.
We sre in the lead when it comes to
winter wraps as well as with every thing
else. Come to our opening Friday, oct.

The SD Regiment, Pennylvania Val
unteers, will hold their annual reunion
at Edinboro, Wednesday, Oct. l6. This
section has still quite number of tie
survivors of this old regiment although
the ranks are fast thinning out.
The weather is fine, but we don't
know as we care about it being just quite
so very cold. This dropping suddenly
from winter into summer is easy enough,
but when the program is reversed it takes
too lively hustling for back-number
luds to suit the average plebe.

The indianapolis News has arc, r
tanned from experts employed by it that
the exact center of population in the
United States is ten feet north of the barn
of Henry Mari, in the southeastern cor

We solicit comparison on style, quail
ity and price of capes, jackets and furs.
our garments are not thrown together,
they show workmanship and skill in ev-
cry little detail. The fineness of material,
the skill of manufacture, the tone to the
garment, meets your eye when you pick
it up. l.. j. Hopkins. 1t
Editor Smith of the Punxy Spirit has
been taking lessons in golf, and says 'as
an out door exercise it is a good deal like
hunting rabbits or picking black ber-
I res." Never having seen the game
I played we don't know much about it, but
we do know-hunting rabbits is just ex-
aclly like picking black berries.
