Institute Might Attractions.

The attention of our citizens is again
called to the meritorious character of
the musical and literary attractions for
the week of Institute, Oct. 1924. The
opportunity to hear talent of this high
order is seldom enjoyed outside the
large cities. In fact, no county in the
State provides a better class of night
attractions than Cameron. Our peo-
pie must have the best-has ever been
the controlling principle. Let the pat
ronage be the largest. A perusal of
the following press notices will inter-
est:
Monday night-The Dunbars. ''The
Central Branch of the Y. M. @. A.
opened it's winter entertainment course
with a pleasing concert by the Dunbar
Hand Bell Ringers and Male Quartet.
The Auditorium was crowded with a
very appreciative audience. The com.
pany made great hit and was encored
again and again. ."-St. Louis (Mo. J
Chronicle.
Tuesday night-The Labadies. The
literary entertainment given by Mr..
and Mrs. Francis Labadie in the Home
stead Carnegie Hall, on Friday evening
was one of the most enjoyable events
of the season. The readings from
Shakespeare were especially fine and
the appreciation of the audience was a
noticeable feature of the evening"
Pittsburg, (Pa.,) Press, Dec. IL, 1898.
Wednesday night-Dr. Hill. All
classes, ages and conditions were rep
resented as the crowd came from far
and near to hear Rev. j. Wesley Hill.
Before he had finished he arose from a
hill to a mountain. He tickled the
fancy, convulsed the risibles, convinced
the Judgment and played at will upon
every chord of sympathy. The audi
ence laughed, wept, applauded and
held their breath by turns.-Helena
Independent.
Thursday night-Ernest Gamble.
Sure in his work, wonderful in his
range, conscientious in his effort, pleas
ingly varied in his numbers, easy in
his stage presence and full of virile
youth, his appearance here will rank
with the most pleasing musical treats
that have fallen to our lot.-South.

The Beautiful Emporium Sc Rich Valley Rail-

eering Feats and Switch backs.
No doubt it is fact that few of our
citizens are aware of the grandness and
pleasure of a ride over the Emporium
& Rich Valley Railroad since the line
has been extended up Cook IS Run into
the vast wilderness of hemlock and
hardwood, presenting one of the most
beautiful views to be seen in this coun.
try. AT this time of the year, espec-
tally, the foliage is beautiful and beyond
the power of man to describe. 1t has
to be seen to be appreciated and after
spending a day visiting the scenes of
activity along the line of this busy
road, watching the ponderous eighty
five ton engine pull train or loaded
cars up grade averaging from five to
nine feet to the hundred, on up the
mountain to the top, nine hundred feet
from the starting point, then quietly
gliding down the mountain side into
North Creek Valley, supply the camps
with material to feed the hundreds of
men employed, hitch onto some cars
loaded with bark, silently retract its
steps and switch.b back its way until the
main line is again reached. Without
stretching the truth, it is ride fully
as interesting as ride over the Kinzua
route. 1t is grand and beautiful. Ye
editor and wife and Mrs. VIM. Van
Meter, of Philadelphia, accompanied
Mr.. Henry Auchu, President of the
road, and Mr.. Jos. J. Lingle, Supt.,
over the line last Friday and certainly
did enjoy tho days outing, and ap-
preciate the kindness and courtesy of
Messrs. Auchu and Lingle, who took
special pains to point out the most in
teresting scenes.
After partaking of an excellent
dinner, prepared by Mr.. and Mrs Geo.
Reigel at camp No. 21, we returned
home tired but highly pleased with the
trip.

Harry has been with the one firm

years ago, having been repeatedly
promoted. These people were very
reluctant to part with his services but
knowing that he was stepping into a
splendid position, gave him a recon-

stepped back against a hot stove which
burned him severely. The child was
in great agony and his mother could
do nothing 10 pacify him. Remember

thought she would try it. In less than
half an hour after applying it the child
was quiet and asleep, and in less than
