"A dentist says that the more teeth are
used legitimately the better for them;
that perfect mastication on both sides of
the mouth prevent receding gums and
tends to ward off decay. Those who chew
on one side have poor teeth on the dis
used side, and the fad of chewing every
mouthful very fine is one of the most SEN
sible fashions humanity has ever taken
up.

Kingsley township, was seriously injured
on the mill at Eagle Rock yesterday after

Never forget that women are made
out Of girls, and that men are made out of
boys, that if you are worthless girl you
will be a worthless woman and if you are
worthless boy you will be a worthless
not know "a, b, c." that all the things
which you are learning had to be learned
by them that the efforts spert in max
ing others happy will in some way add to
your own happiness that life ofuseful-
ness and helpfulness is worth many
times more than life of pleasure.
The drunken idiot who started the
fire whistle last night, giving the decent,
lawabidng element of the town such a
fright, should meet proper punishment
without delay That punishment should
be incarceration in the Jail for thirty or
sixty day term, good stiff fine and com
plete ostracism from decent society. Put
such idiots where they belong and keep
them there for The good of society. If
this rowdyism is permitted 10 go on at
the rate it has been, about the next we
hear there will be occasion for southern
lynching bee, and for about the same
sort of criminalty as is carried on down
there.
F. Il. Allison, of Wisconsin, is in
Frank lin for few days for the first time
Ito visit in forty years. But he is an old
Venaugo county man. He was born in
Centre county "7s years ago." as he says,
but came to Venango when seventeen
and taught school in Cranberry town
ship the next year. He says he has only
met two people in Franklin that he re-
members, Robert Bingham and Mrs. j,
II. Smith, Sr. He began life in Vepango,
near Slab Furnace, in the charcoal days.
He helped to strip the county of timber
fifty or sixty years ago. When Forest
county was formed his home fell within
its bounds aud he was prominent in that
county until 1882, when he went 10 Wis
consn, where he has since resided, ex-
cept a few years in Oregon. He is the
only living uncle of United States Sena-
tor Allison, of Iowa, and looks very
mucn like his distinguished nephew
Venango Vindicator.
In an address before the New York
Press Association Senator Depew paid a
tribute to the country newspaper which
well suggests the standard they should
persistently maintain, in the course OF
which he said: 81 pay my respects to
aud express my admiration for the coun-
try newspaper and country editor. His
lines are not cast in places OF the great
and profitable organs of the metropolis,
whose profits are reckoned often by the
hundreds of thousands OF dollars every
year. But the country editor lives in
and is a part of his community. His vir-
tue is not so much in what he prints as
what he refuses to print. He could easi-
ly destroy the peace of the community by
admitting to his paper the scandals and
gossips OF the neighbors. But he stands
as censor and guardian of public NOR
ais, and know of no conditions under
which the public is appealed to in GER
tain measure where the utterance is so
free from criticism as the general tone OF
the country press"
