An exchange makes the following ex-
planation: Somebody who wants to ex-
plain what the editorial 1--WE" signifies,
says its meaning varies TO suit the cir
cumstances. For instance when you
read that 1--WE expect our wife home to-
day" we refer to tho editor and chief,
when it's 1--WE are little late with our
work" it includes the whole Office even
the devil and towel, if tive are having a
boom," the town is meant; "we received
over zoo, 900 emgrants last year." it en-
braces the nation, but "we haye hog
cholera in our midst" only refers to the
illness of the man who takes the paper
two or three years then orders it stopped
without paying for it.
The "Forest County Agricultural
Society and Driving Park Association of
Marienville" was organized at that place
last week, with a full set of officers. The
object OF the new organization is the
stimulating of the agricultural interests
of the county and the holding of an an
nual county fair, together with its at
tendant attractions, such as trotting
park, buildings for the display Of the
products Of the farm, live stock, etc.
The project is in the hands of the wide
awake citizens Of the town, which is
equivalent to saying that its success is
assured. 1t is proposed to capitalize the
association to the extent of $1,000, divid-
cd into 500 shares OF the par value of ten
dollars per share, most of which has al
ready been subscribed. Abundant sue
cess to the enterprise, and may our neigh
bors have the best fair in the State next
summer. Well all go up to see it, TAX
ing our wives, sweethea arts, sisters,
cousins and aunts.

Some Spring BOquets.

j. +. Wenk of Tionesta has conducted
the FOREST REPUBLICAN for 26 years, and
the paper just celebrated its 37th birth
day. Both the sheet and editor are bale
and hearty, and will doubtless survive
the forthcoming food and live to enjoy
several more square meals. Warren

This weeks issue of the Tionesta RE-
PUBLICAN is the last of Volume 81, and
the genial editor and publisher, j. E.
Wenk, admits that he is growing old. He
has managed the REPUBLICAN twenty-siX
years very successfully, and we hope he
will remain at the helm another twenty
six years.-Warren Mail.
The FOREST REPUBLICAN, with Br'er
"Jake" Wenk at the helm, has Just
celebrated its 37th anniversary. Why,
Jake" was an old newspaper man when
we started in the business, and yet he
seems to grow younger with the passing
years. Certainly his paper retains all
the vim and freshness of youth, and we
could no more get along without it than
we could keep house without a cook
stove. Long may it continue to wave

The FOREST REPUBLICAN has just cele-
brated the 37th anniversary of its birth,
Twenty-siX years of this stretch of time
its fortunes have been under the able and
successful guidance of its present editor
Bro. Jacob Wenk, whose ability to
smoothly WELD the pen is only equalled
by his light and unerring touch of the
trigger when joyously he sets forth afield
where paths are old, yet ever new. Like
wise it may be remarked that Bro. Wenk
is a standing refutation of Or, Osler's ri
diculous assertion-this, of course, with
reference to the latter's "40-year" limita-
tion, the chloroform period being yet far
in the perspective. Congratulations to
the REPUBLICAN and fluctuations to Edi-
tor Wenk.
To both our best wishes,
May they ever fly high,
And may ink well or powder horn

Winners of the Normal Scholarships.

The competitive examination for schol-
arships t. the Clarion Normal School was
held last Saturday. Principal j. G..
Becht, of Clarion, examined class of "A
at Marienville, and Supt. Il. E. Stitzinger
examined class of IL in Tionesta. Nine
pupils of the borough schools entered the
class.
The questions were very fair test in
their respective subjects, but the pupils
manifested that nervousness which is
very common in older persous in similar
circumstances.
Taken altogether, the examination will
prove very helpful to all concerned, and
it will be gratifying to the donor to know
the great amount OF interest taken there
in. We understand he has concluded to
make q similar offer tor the next year,
and we would adyise our young people
to redouble their efforts and be prepared
for the examinations which will come in
a year from this time.

New Railroad Seems assured.

A special dispatch from Warren, Pa,
under date of March s, throws consdsra-
BILE light on the railroad survey along the
Allegheny river, and would indicate that
Tionesta is destined to be one of the
trunk line towns. The dispatch is as
follows:
The surveyors who recently made War
rem their headquarters for several days
are now working below Tionesta and
have about completed their portion of the
work. The survey is said TO commence
at Youngstown, o., and run east to Sala-
manca, where the main line of the Erie
railroad is once more Joined. The sur
vey has been most thorough one and
grades have been made that are easy and
thoroughly practical.
From authority that is undoubted, it is
learned that the road surveyed is not
branch of the Erie system, but the main
line ITSELF The survey is over a route
outlined number of years ago by the
heads of the road and at that time given
much thought. BY the line from Youngs-
town through to Salamanca via Oil City
and Warren, about IS miles is saved on
the run from Chicago DO New York and
the time can be lessened about two hours.
This and the competition that is result
ing between the Erie and other lines
from New York west is the cause of the
move on the part of the Erie.
The authority that gives the above is
also quoted when il is said that the gang
of engineers will return to Warren about
June lst for the purpose of stalking and
grading the road, which will be built
during the coming summer. 1t is ex
pected that trains will be running by
next fall on regular schedule. Warren
will then gain another trunk line that
will do much to help the town.
A Franklin dispatch under date of 10th
inst, says: "a director of the Erie rail-
road to-day stated it is proposed to elimi-
nate all bad grades and curves between
Salamanca, n. Y, and Greenville, Pa.
Beginning at a point five miles west of
Salamanca, the road will cross the Ale
gheny river to the south side and follow
the river to Warren, Irvineton, Oil City
and Franklin. From Franklin the road
will take the route of the present branch
to Shaw's Landing, below Meadville, and
then connect with the present main line
west of Meadville."
So it looks like pretty nearly sure
thing for the new railroad. The survey
ing party is yet making Tionesta its
headquarters and on Tuesday had ex-
tended its survey below Eagle Rock.

on the second day of April. This bit of
history is not so ancient but that it might
repeat itself without much effort.
The Joshua Simpkins" company,
carrying their own special scenery, a
band of music and fine orchestra, Will
produce the great pastoral comedy drama
of that name at the Tionesta Opera House
next Friday evening. The piece deals
with country life and people, three acts
of the play being laid in one of the many
quaint villages of Vermont. The second
act portrays Uncle Josh's first visit to
Washington City. In the third act sem
satonal saw mill effect is shown, being
nothing more or less than complete saw
mill in full operation, cutting up genuine
timber. The saw is genuine circular
saw, and cuts through timber at lightning
speed
"A circular from j. II. Maddy, press
agent for the Erie railroad, says hei e.
after newspapers shall have all informa-
ton they desire. The circular says: "The
management of this property realizes
that wrecks are news, that while rail-
road does not want to have them and does
all it can to prevent them, they will hap
pen, and then the proper procedure is to
give the facts. AS a semi-public institu-
ton, this railroads doings are semi-pub-
lie in character, it's officers and employees
are we'll known and its services to the
public subject of comment. 1t is pro-
posed to keep the newspapers fully post
ed as to matters of interest, and this ollic7
will handle such news as may be of in
terest 10 the public" And some other
railroads that we know OF might do well
to follow this example.

GREAT RELIGIOUS REVEALS.
Churches Not Large Enough Have to
Seek More Room.

Because of the great crowds attend
ing the union gospel meetings at Huron
the committee in charge has leased the
World building and meetings are now
being held there. The Methodist church
the largest in the city, was packed every
night and many could not gain admit
lance
Not in the history of Huron has there
been such an awakening among Christ
ians and also among church going peo-
pie as is apparent at this time.
Scores have responded to the invita-
tation of Evangelist Smith to become
Christians, and men and women of all
ages and walks of life are included in
the company of seekers after truth"
The afternoon meeting attracted large
crowds and much good,is being accom-
plished.
A census of the town is being tax en-
every house is visited and the number
of jewellers noted, together with those
attending church and the denomination
to which they belong or prefer.

SCIENCE OF GRAIN RAISING
Prof. III. c. Bolley of the Oak ota
Agricultural College offers
Good Advice on Putting
The Seed in Right, in
SIM ut Issue of the
Farm Stock and
Home.


"We have observed, other things
being equal, that the first wheat
seeded in the spring gives the best
yield and best grade, and usually is
out Of the way of the attack of rust"
He further says: make a good,
even seed bed with good soil con-
tinually from below upward, and
bury the seed at an even or regular
depth, so as to insure even develop
meut of the crop"
More sound and profitable advice
was never given grain growers.
Good business judgment and reason
is just as necessary in farming as in
any other lines Of business. There
are three questions that deeply
interest the farmers as whole. and
especially the farmers of this great
Northwest, and they are:

NOT A PATENT MEDICINE
HyOnei, the Guaranteed Cataarh Cure,
Prescribed By Physicians.

No one should confound Hy-
omei with the patent medicines
that are advertised to cure
catarrh. 1t is as far superior
to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheap glass.
Their composition is secret, but
Hyomei gives its formula TO all
reputable physicians.
It's base is the valua BILE
eucalyptus oil, famous for its
antiseptic qualities. This is
combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, max
ing pure liquid, which when
used in the Hyomei pocket in
haler, fills the air you breathe
with germ-killing, disease.de-
stroying and healing powers
that kills all catarrhal germs
there may be in the throat,
nose and lungs.
How foolish it is to try and
cure catarrh by swallowing tab
lets or guilds. The only natur-
al way to cure this disease and
all other diseases of the respir-
atory organs is to breathe
Hyomei.
This treatment has been so
successful, curing SO per cent
of all who have used it, that
Hyomei is now sold by Wood
Bros. under an absolute guaran-
tee to refund the money if it
does not cure. You run no risk
whatever in buying Hyomei. II
it did not possess unusual pow
ers to cure, il could not be sold
upon this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit
costs $1.O0 and comprises an in
haier, a bottle of Hyomei and a
droper. The inhaler will last a
lifetime; and additional bottl IS
of Hyomei can be obtained for
so cents.
