COLLECTS OLD NEWSPAPERS
Pennsylvania Judge Finds Interesting
Items in the Files

Judge Roberts of Pittsburg, who re-
Gently resigned from the bench to be-
come a director of the Pittsburg Coal
company-a corporation that owns 200,-
900 acres of Pennsylvania coal lands
and which recently made a contract to
supply all the fuel used by the United
States Steel company in the next
twenty-five years-had a fad for col
lecting newspapers. His great-grand-
father began it and the collection Is
most interesting and valuable.
Among other things the collection
contains complete files of the Register.
published in Philadelphia before the
Revolution. When Judge Rogers has
an evening off he delves into his old
files. The other day he came across an
item in the Register which read some
thing like this:
"We have heard strange story about
salt lick at Charters creek Hunters
who have visited the lick say that gas
arises there which will burn when
H6llSu' we venture " pTSuiCC lHdl
this gas will some day be used for
fuel"
In another issue was an item which
interested him and which read:
1--WE learn from England that a man
named Stevenson has invented an en-
gine that runs by steam. We venture
to predict that some day it will be pos
sible for a man to eat his breakfast in
Harrisburg and his supper in Phila-
delphia."
"The gas referred to in this old
paper said Judge Rogers, "is, of
course, our natural gas which has had
so much to do with the development Of
certain parts of the country. In those
days Philadelphia was further from
Harrisburg than Pittsburg is from
New York today. Yet we all know that
it is possible now to eat luncheon in
Harrisburg and dine in New York. The
editor of the old Register was a far
seeing individual and most of his pre-
dictions have come true
Judge Rogers keeps his collection up
to date in this way: Whenever ne
reads a newspaper that is particularly
interesting he lays that paper aside.
He is instructing his son in the art OF
picking out important papers and ex-
poets him to continue the collection.

Wednesday was a busy day at the
Greys' Mrs. Grey was busy packing
and fixing little daintles to take to
grandma on the morrow. Tommy was
out in the yard playing wishing and
waiting for tomorrow to come.
The next morning Tommy was UP
bright and early ready to help his
mamma. What time do you go?"
Tommy would ask every little while.
1T will not be long, DEAR" his mamma
would say
Finally they were ready to go. Tommy
was dressed in his best clothes. He was
anxious to see grandma and grandpa,
for he had not seen them for two
months. They were going to stay a
week. At last they reached the station
just in time to get the train. Tommy
had never been to the country before.
His grandparents had just moved
there.
AS they were riding along in the
train Tommy was surprised to see large
orchards; he thought it would be like
the city. They now reached the coun-

waiting for them.

"Grandmas home waiting for you."
was the answer.
They got into the buggy and were
riding along when in the distance they
saw a house. "That is our house."
said grandpa. 1t was a large house
surrounded by trees.
AS they drove in the yard they saw
grandma at the door. They had now
reached the house. Tommy was very
much excited. He wanted to go out
and see the animals. So he and grand
pa went first to where the pigs were.
When they had visited all the animals
| it was dinner time. Tommy could
hardly wait to tell his mother about the
little pigs, puppies, calves, horses, COWS,
cats and the rest of the animals. After
dinner they went out for a ride and
grandpa let Tommy drive. He thought
| this was great fun. In the evening
they were tired out, so they went to
bed early.
The next morning Tommy got up
early to go out with grandpa to milk
the COWS. After breakfast they went
for walk On their way home they
saw large black horse galloping down
the road.
Look! Look!" cried Tommy, "there is
runaway" Grandpa saw that it was
an old black, one of his best horses
There were some men working in the
fields; they came and helped grandpa
catch the horse. 1t was late when they
got home.
where have you been all this timer"
asked Tommy's mother. Then Tommy
told the story.
The week passed by too quickly for
Tommy. The next Thursday morning
Tommy's mother said: well, are you
ready to go home yet?"
"Oh, no!'' said Tommy; "let's stay
another week." But his mamma would
not. She only said: 1--WE will come
again soon.''

from almost any small brook can be

One morning my father was awakened
by deep growing. At first he
thought it was the dog but further in
vestigation proved that it was not.
Hastily he slipped on his shoes and
taking his gun he soon fastened out to
find what made the noise. He soon
saw that instead of the dog, the peace

old mother cat with kittens lying there.
AS / had always wished for a cat since
my other one was killed 1 was very
glad.
AS the kittens grew older and strong
we became much attached to them and
often took them out of their bed to
play. When they were about a month
and a half old their mother, thinking
they were old enough to feed them
selves, would stay away from them for
hours at time till they got so hun
cry they would try to lap the milk we
gave them. She then commenced to
teach them to wash themselves and to
catch gophers so she could have what
