Think of 1t Mothers !

There is no place that girl can COM
mence her downfall as quickly as on the
streets or going to the depot to meet
every train that comes in. Parents who
have daughters should teach them that
there is nothing cute about making
chance acquaintances of the men they
happen to meet on the streets.-DuBois
Morning Journal.
A gentleman who has resided in
Reynoldsville four months said the
other evening that he had never been
in town where he saw so many girls
standing in Railways and dark places
along the streets talking to young men
as he had seen since he came to Reyn-
oldsville. Think Of it mothers. They
are somebody's daughters. Are your
daughters among the number?

"Why Girls Leave Home" is the
novel title Of drama which will be
seen at the Reynolds opera house on
Monday evening, Jan. IS. The theme
is taken from life and so handled that
nature flows through every part Of it.
The laugh, the tear, the awsome sus-
pense follows each other alternately
throughout, each dominating the
auditor in its own impressive way. The
plot hinges upon a young girl who SUBJ
mits to the attentions of travelling
salesman, against the wishes of her
family. Her elder brother in particu-
lar, the man of the house, takes upon
himself to rule her with rod of iron to
which she as resolutely objects, and out
of which grows the denoument of the
play. This is from the hand of we'll
known Frank Dodge and is claimed to
be one Of his master efforts.

BIG SNOW STORM.
Eighteen Inches of the "Beautiful" Fell
Inside Twenty-Four Hours.

The heaviest snow storm seen in this
section for some years, came this way
Friday and on Saturday morning the
snow was eighteen inches deep. MOI e
snow fell Saturday, Sunday and Monday
evening and yesterday morning the
snow was two feet deep on the level.
The snow drifted considerable Sunday
and Monday, making some of the
country roads impossible.
Mr.. Ninian Cooper, who is reliable
authority, says the fall of snow Friday
and Friday night is the heaviest fall
of snow that we have had at one time
since the winter of 1854.
The deep snow made it impossible for
the trolley cars TO run anyways near on
time, and one or two trips Saturday 1t
took several hours to run from Punxsu-
tawney to Reynoldsville. The snow
plow was continually in use Saturday
and Sunday. With the exception of
the eastbound noon trains and 6.l5 p.
m. train on the p r, r. Saturday the
passenger trains on that road were
nearly on time Saturday and Sunday.
