Two Meals n Day.

With many persons the custom of two principal meals, with slight lunch between, finds considerable favor, and it has one or two reasons or solid ad- vantages which are worth mentioning it gives time for complete digestion before the stomach is again called on to take care of supply of food, and it removes the chief meal from the time when the nerve force is wanted for the brain to aN hour when it can assist the stomach.
 Persons who are the victims of chronic complaints and whose digestion is slow and feeble are often greatly benefited by taking but two meals a day if they are careful to eat as much in the two as would ordinarily be con- prised in three. The neuralgia in par ttcular will do well to adopt this course, but the first meal should be somewhat late and the second reason ably early.

THE OLD PORTAGE ROAD.
Built by Pennsylvania With Material
 Ephuu uh% Eroru Eunlmw1

Built by Pennsylvania With Material
 Brought From England.
 For some time prior to 1900 travel across Pennsylvania had been in ca noes and in river barges propelled by poles or along the shores of rivers by horse and foot and by intervening portages on Indian trails, connecting points on the different rivers. The Philadelphia-Pittsb national pike was built upon such a substantial basis that wherever undisturbed one still finds the gracefully modelled arches of solid masonry almost intact after more than century has passed. The com pletion of the Old Portage railroad by the state of Pennsylvania in 1884 put an end to the time honored "coach and six," with the many picturesque and commOdiOus inns and taverns along the line of this broad macadamized toll road, which with its substantial con- Btruction was in point of endurance second only to the Roman military roads of Great Britain.
 This Old Portage road was construct ed from material brought from Eng land. The British government sent over experienced engineers to instruct the Americans in the running of the stationary steam engines used upon the inclined planes of the road in the Allegheny mountains. The railroads highest point was about 2,70O feet above sea level, being only POO feet lower than the neighboring hill, which Is the highest point of the Allegheny mountains in Pennsylvania. The road consisted of ten planes, five of which were on either side of the mountain and intervening levels. In 1885 the canal boats were so constructed that they could be taken in sections and hauled over the mountain on flat cars without disturbing their cargoes. The rails were secured to stone sleeperS twenty inches square, which were sunk In the ground.
 On the Old Portage road the best time for the forty miles between Hol- hours. Express trains on the Pennsyl- vania railroad now run a closely par Rllel distance over the Allegheny noun ta1ns in a trifle over one hour. The passenger traffic on the road in those days was usually limited to one car each way a day, with a capacity of thirty passengers.
 In 1854 the Pennsylvania Railroad company bought the Portage road from the state of Pennsylvania.-Chi Chicago News.

When Women Smoked.

In a copy of the Old Farmers Alma mac, printed about 1900, we find the following article on "the prevention and extinction of f1res:" "Never read in bed by candlelight, especially if your bed be surrounded by curtains. Strictly forbid the use of cigars in your family at all times, but especially after night There is good reason to suppose house was lately set on fire by a half consum- ed cigar, which a woman suddenly threw away to prevent being detected in the unhealthy and offensive practice of smoking"

The first game was between the
Fats and Leans. 1t was very
laughable game from start to finish.
Home runs were made on passed
balls. Very few struck out. No one
was called out unless he was touched
with the ball. Sometimes the player
would run all over the ground and get
to his base. The umpire made his
own rules. The score was 13 to IS IN
favor Of the Fats.
The afternoon game was an inter-

Clinton. crossed bats wirh West End.
There was a large attendance from
both mills: also quite a number OF vls-

es to say that he congratulates the
teams for the good behavior OF the
players. There was not a decision
rendered but what was satisfactory on
both sides. For fear there will be a
mistake in the base ball teams, Of
Newberry, this team which played
here on the fourth is the West End

team which disbanded few weeks
