The attention Of all voters, especial
ly property owners, to the following
excellent nominations for Borough and

um Borough finances has been in de-
plorable condition, for some time, ow-

ative that careful, competent and
honest men should be elected. Elect
every man on the Republican column
and you will make no mistake The
fact that several of the prominent
Democrats nominated have declined

Coxy's Army is Still on the Grass.
Last Monday evening the Coxy
Army Bowling team "crossed bats'
with the R. R. Bowling team, defeat.
ing the latter by 269 pins. 1t was
evident that Coxy's Army was sure of
winning by the confident manner in
which they marched to the '.feld of
victory. The much beloved Captain,
freddy" Lyons, walked in advance
carrying an army musket-made in
1776-followed by j. Shives bearing the
American flag; p. Jackson was next in
line waving symbol of the African
race far in the air and Prof Daly
brought up the rear exhibiting his abil-
ity as a bass drummer. After the
game the army drilled few minutes
in the Bowling Alley, much to the dis
cOncertion of the r. r. team, and then
repaired to the New Warner Cafe for
refreshments. The following is the
score:

The Self Rising Nose.

Frank Deshon, than whom funnier
comedian never donned the makeup,
never resorts to slap stick or horse
play, but by his cute pranks and valu-
able wit, wins host of friends where
ever he chances to exhibit his wares.
There are some folks with whom ma
ture has endowed an extra bump of
mirth and when these bumps were
given out at school, little Frank Deshon
must have been sitting in front seat
and stood pat with the distributor of
those things that tend to makea funny
comedian. He is exceedingly funny
and wins countless laughs.
The other night after he had hard
night playing Archie Van Million in
Willard Sponsors miss Bob White''
talking to some friends, told them all
the funny experiences he had since a
Snowman and which dated back to his
prior career, when as one of Palmer
Cox's Brownies. The scene of the
narrative is laid in Pottstown, Pa.
When about Is minutes after the cur
that he had no nose putty. He ap-
pealed to each and every member of
the little Company but only failure
stared him in the face, and finally as a
last resort, he got an errand boy about
the stage to get him SC worth of best
-four, with which after a great delay,
he completed his makeup.
All went we'll during the first act, in
fact he was funpier than ever and he
was particularly pleased with himself
inasmuch as he got laughs he had
never dared to dream OF and some
times when there was no occasion for
it, but he was elated with his success.
he did not notice anything unusual
until he had a scene with a beer keg,
when much to his disgust his eyesight
failed him and he could not see where
the keg was. He felt sure that the
property was at fault and went to look
at the audience to see how they were
taking the stage wait, and he could
not see the audience. Finally he CROP
ed around and found the keg, finished
the scene and went off in fit of great
excitement. Rushing to his room, he
sought a mirror and beheld with hor-
ror that his nose was about ten
times its natural size. He was thunder
struck and could not account for the
pheuomena but made bee line for the
youngster who had made the purchase
and finding him, inquired as to what
under the sun he had bought with the
nickel, to which the youth replied
''Why, self rising -four, of course, that's
the kind mother always uses" And
then with the recollection of the per-
spiration and the normal heat of the
body, Deshon realized it was not pre-
mature attack of Delirium Tremens
for at last he was still on the water
wagon.
