As you value your own and your
family's digestion do not serve tea
with fish. The tannic acid hardens
the fiber and makes it indiges.ible.
1t should not be offered with any
form of fish, shellfish or the artic-
ulate animals, like Holsters and
crabs. Iced tea and soft-shell crabs,
for example, are a combination
that should be avoided.

The National Bird

Those OF US who cannot be sufficient
" thankful without the aid Of tur-
key on Thanksgiving Day arc threat
ened with a turkey famine or a great
depletion of purse in the purchase of
the American bird.
We are told that the spring was too
springy. the summer too summery and
the fall too fally. that the rain was
too wet and the heat too hot and the
cold weather too cold for the domestic
raising" OF the birds that once swarm
ed all over the country in their wild
state and we're exposed to the ravaRes
OF myriads of enemies.
When the price of the turkey shall
become prohibitive-and that time ap-
pears to be at hand-it will cease to
be the national bird. As luxury it
will lose its high place in the hearts
of the people. Then substitute will
be needed. In this extremity there will
be no lack Of "ham and" The hog
may become the national bird.

Trolley Advantages.

With a pardonable air of pride Mon
days Morning News announced that
"Danville was filled with visitors on
Saturday most of them coming into
the city by way of the trolley line
Berwick. Bloomsbury, Catawissa and
other towns in Columbia county were
represented "
This is the Legitimate fruit of the
trolley communication which Dan
ville's enterprise helped to bring into
operation. Where there are easy means
of Intercourse there will be travel and
business.
We very much need something OF
that kind in this locality. Probably
in no other town of equal size in the
State are there so many arrivals of
people from a distance as there are in
Sunbury, but they come by Railroad
and do not have the same intent to do
business with our local tradespeople
as would those who come by trolley.
There sr5 greater possibilities of bust
ness with the latter kind of visitors, a
fact that should be recognized by all
towns that are looking after trade, and
should make an impression upon the
business men of our city
We need trolley communication with
other localities. We especially need
it with Snyder county which would
be prolific source of business for our
merchants and general traders A trol-
ley line extending from this place
through that section with its numer-
Gus agricultural population and its
many small towns, would greatly eu-
large the general trading business of
this city. Can't this be be made OBJ
vious to our business people Sun

A GREAT
ATTRACTION

A large aud cultured audience made
up of Danville, Bloomsbury and Cata-
wissa people enjoyed one of the most
notable attractions Of the season at the
local theatre last night, the play being
"The Triumph of An Empress with
Mildred Holland in the role of Gath
crime the Great of Russia. .
The telling Of mere outline of the
story can give no adequate idea of the
plays strength, nor can it show the
intense heart interest that runs through
the entire piece. The entire company
was exceedingly well balanced, made
up of clever and talented people. Miss
Hollands gowns and jewels were es-
pecially pleasing to the feminine por.
tion OF the audience, who read their
description In the Morning News and
saw her display of the latter at Smith s
Jewelry store.
Though Miss Holland has always
been greeted with enthusiastic audi
ences in Dauville her new play met
with popular favor last night. Its
chief value, however, is in giving Miss
Holland another of the roles in which
she excels The refreshing quality OF
her work is apparent when she is call
ed upon to display either comedy or
emotional quality. AS "Catharine the
Empress" she has a role that fits her
admirably, and she plays it well. She
was accorded several curtain calls.
Henry G. Mortimer's portrayal OF
the Emperor was sincere and intelhg-
ent. Lillian Norris as plotting count
ess gave an impressive rendition of the
difficult role. Effective support was
also given by John A. Missen, George
Warrington. Helen Young and Rita
O'Neal. The remodeled stage of the
Danville theatre accommodated the
scenic effects to the smallest detail.

RILKESBARRE Ct
DANVILLE 81

The Ninth Regiment basket ball
team of WilkesbarTe administered
very decided defeat to the Danville
team at the Arnory last evening by
the score of 67-31. The game, how
ever, was not an uninteresting one
sided con test, the soldiers only throw
ing their baskets after the hardest kind
of work.
The visitors outweighed the home
team, which was possibly their great
est advantage. Danville scored the
first basket of the game and for few
minutes prospects looked bright for a
Danville victory, but Wilkesbarre soon
started the fine playing that held the
locals down. The first half ended with
the score 35-7 in favor of Wilkesbarre.
Part of the second half was much the
same as the first, and it was not until
| Kane, WiIkesbarre' star center, was
compelled to leave the game on account
of injuries, that Danville did any con-
sistent playing. With only five min
utes to play Danville made six pretty
goals before time was called The game
ended with the score 67-3l in favor OF
| Wilkesbarre.

to the limbo Of doubt He has a scru-

tisements and display announcements
do not do full justice to the excellence
