do much with the Easter bonnets.
A liar can never be reliel upon or
believed even if the truth is told in
a ivertently by them. And yet such |
gentry are met too often in the |
journey through life, more's the pity. |
Many person knows it is a wrong
thing, when there is good paper
maintained in his town for him to try
to get all the news he needs from it
by borrowing what his neighbor pays
for.
How is that sick neighbor? Step
in once in little while and see if you
can do anything to cheer him up. 1t
will do you more good than it will
him, and it will be worth lot to
him.
Better keep nice silver dollar as
a souvenir, rs Supt. Lands, of the
Philadelphia Mint says: "From pres
ent indications l do not believe there
ever will be arother silver dollar
coined"
Bargain hunters read the advertise
ments in their local papers Just as
they read the news. If you are not
represented, you are not getting your
share of the custom of the community,
Mr. Merchant, advertise!
Is it no longer good form to be
polite and considerate ? There are a
thousand and one ways of showing
good breeding and when they are
lacking it is a pretty sure indication
that the breeding is not there.
Achenbach IL Moore, at the Dan
vile bowling allies, have for sale the
celebrated "Sweet Girls" an extra
fine DC cigar, manufactured by the
popular and well known firm of John
c. Herman q Co., of Harrisburg.
Stick to the overcoat! Beware of
this semi-tropical weather! 1t is
'treacherous and carries pneumonia
with it. Avoid drafts, do not lay off
any clothing or wraps because of the
rise in temperature. Physicians join
in agreeing that death turks in the at
mosphere. BE very prudent.
Are there cracks in YOU chimney
Look out for them. Winter is a bad
time to be burned out of house and
home. If not too bad, have the
cracks nicely pointed up. If too bad
for that, take the chimney down and
lay it up new. 1t is easier and cheap
er to do that than to build new
house.
If you do not have a regulation
mail box to receive your letters and
papers on rural free delivery routes

The Wilkes Barre Record notes re-
ports from Glen Summit, Retreat,
Laurel Run and Dallas that the sweet
trailing arbutus is already in bloom.
This is, indeed, a rarity for the month
of January, 1906, as arbutus is hard
ly ever in bloom before the latter part
of April. Many remarkable cases Of
a like nature in fruits and flowers out
doors are heard from in different parts
of Pennsylvania. This winter is
dandy record breaker and no mistake.
1t is said that the fruit crops may be
injured by this excessive humidity
and heat.
An exchange says that new way
to make money easily by swindling
people was introduced in its vicinity
by.a stranger last week. The fellow
goes into home where he knows that
the man of the house is gone and gives
to the woman a stick pin, saying that
it was given to him by the husband
to repair and the cost would be paid
over to the swindler, as the woman
would have no suspicion that the
story was not true Quite number
of women have given up their forty
cents for stick pin that is worth
about five cents.
The grandest luxury God ever gave
man is health He who trades that
off for all the places of earth is cheat
ed Many have envied Napoleon,
but he would glady have given all his
honors to have been freed from the
gout. A dinner of herbs tastes better
to the appetite sharpened on Il wood
mans AK or scythe, than wealthy in
digestion experiences seated at table
covered with venison and all the lux
pries of the season. With good health
we can sleep sweetly on straw mat
tress, while fashionable invalids get

down. Let us remember PauPs ad-
