The announcement that birds are
put only on cheap hats, says the
Chicago Post, will do more to discour-
age the wearing of such finery than a
volume of appeals to humanity and
gentleness. No woman will care to
declare through the bill of a stuffed
bird that she is wearing stuffed mil
linery.

A general boycott is being declared
on beef by the consumers of the coun-
try on account of the exactions of the
trust and prices may be expected to
fall before long. The trust is engaged
in cornering all of the eggs in sight
and these may go up before meat
takes tumble. Don't eat meat and
thus get ahead of the trust which
will be broken down.

In THE REPUBLICAN, advertising

and safes arrive at Friendsville. Mr..
l.. E. Friend is president, Mr.. John
W. Mccullough vice president and
Mr.. R. G. McCandlish, formerly of Ell
kins, is cashier. The latter is an ex-
perienced gentleman in the banking
business. Heis now located at Friends

The committee of the Oakland Club
appointed by the Board of Governors
to dispose of the furniture in the club
rooms, pay off its debts, etc., has com
piled with their duties. Enough
money was realized from the sale of
the property to liquidate the indebt-
edness. The organization did much
for Oakland in a general way. To its
work and influence can be attributed
to great extent the large crowds of
summer visitors to Oakland in the
past year or two. 1t was one of the
prime movers in agitating the i'm
provement of the streets of Oakland
and as natural consequence proper
ty owners took pride in the resi-
dences and grounds surrounding them
and they were likewise made present
able. Although the club is one of
the things of the past yet while it was
in existence its influence for good to
all classes and the town in general
was felt and appreciated. Those who
derived the most benefit from it were
its greatest opponents.
