Stay on the Farm.
So Say Lancaster County Teachers.

At the close of the Lancaster
county Teachers Institute held last
week, a series of resolutions were
adopted, among which was the fol-
lowing, which the Lancaster Daily
Examiner aptly styles as being
good, sensible, practical and time
ly:" 1T is the sense of this insti'
tute that every teacher should use
his or her influence in and out Of
the school room, to direct the at
tention of pupils to the wholesome
and educational value of rural tife.
The false allurements of every con-
ceivable form in life, to the country
boy, can be largely counteracted
by a teacher who makes the most
of every opportunity to impress the
boy with the fact that the vocation
OF the farmer carries well earned
dignity with it. We earnestly re-
commend that the teachers present
this fact forcibly and use their
ability, to the ultimate end of max
ing country life the fascinating life
for the country boy"

Slick Ones.

There are tricks in all trades but
ours. The curbstone market in
Williamsport is supposed to be
composed of farmers who bring
their produce to the city and sell it
direct to the folks who buy it to
eat. The Meas tells Of couple
of gentlemen who have eggs ship
ped in crates from New York.
They are cold storage eggs, costing
in Williamsport, % cents per doz-
ell. These worthless dress up as
farmers, in old overalls. hats cover
ed with hayseed and straw in their
hair (who ever saw farmer in that
rig on the street, They repack
their eggs in baskets filled with
oats, and sell them as strictly fresh
eggs, at thirty.six cents a dozen.
This precious pair recently dispos-
ed of one hundred dozens of cold
storage eggs in this manner, in one
day. If folks like to be humbug-
ged, and don't know a fresh egg
when they see it, what's the differ

Schalck for the Bench.
Prominent SchuylkiIl Lawyer Likcly 10 Sue.
ceed MARI.

Judge w. A. Marr, having de
fnitely decided that he will not be
a candidate for reelection, but will
retire at the end of his term on
December 81, 1908, will make it
necessary for the Democrats of
Schuylkill county to put up two
men for judicial honors next year,
one to succeed Judge P. M. Dunn,
of the Orphans Court, who died
recently, and one to Gil the vacancy
OH the Common Pleas Bench.
1t is already evident, from the
expressions of Democrats in all
parts of the county, that one Of
the Democratic nominees will be
A. w. Schalck. The fitness of
Mr.. Schalck to acceptatly fill
place on the bench is conceded
on all sides. He has for years
been a leader at the Schuyl
kill County Bar, appears OH one
side or the other of nearly every
important case that originates here,
and is greatly feared by his fellow
! lawyers as an antagonist.
That the Democratic party will
not lack for material for the other
Judgeship is evident from the way
friends of candidates are bringing
them forth. a strong movement
has already set in for the nomina-
tion of District Attorney Irwin A.
Reed, who will complete a very
successful term at the end of next
year. James A. Noecker and JAM
es B. Reilly are also mentioned for
the honor of Democratic nomina-
tions.

An Investment Which Will Pay Big
Returns.

The financial world has been in
such a panicky condition of late
that there may be some doubt as to
the advisability of investing in
stocks, but there can be none at all
as to the wisdom of expending
twenty-five cents for a copy of the
December LipbincOtfS. The COM
plete novel in it is called The Ca
reer," and the author is Kathryn
Jarboe, one of our younger writer's,
who is noted more for the quality
of her literary productions than for
the quantity. The plot of the
story hinges upon the love of a
young musical prodigy who has
been brought up to consider her
career" as of paramount import
ance, for her husband, who neither
knows nor cares about music, and
who places all professional musi-
clans in the same category with
mountebanks. Out of the result
tant clash of temperamcnts and in
terests the author has woven a tale
marvellous for its insight into hui
man nature and its delineation of
character. The Career" is suffi-
GENTLY absorbing to hold any read
er's interest, but it will appeal es-
pecially to those who are interested
in the arts, especially the musical.

Responsibility Of Parents.
What Judge Hart Says About II.

The remarks of Judge Hart, of
Lycoming county, in placing sever
al lads who had transgressed the
law in the custody Of their parents,
with the admonition to watch their
conduct or he would send the boys
to the House of Refuge, should
open the eyes of these and other
parents to their responsibilities
There are many parents in this
city who have been allowing their
young children to do as they please,
and the result is that these children
have become habitual street walk
ers and corner loafers. The parent
who does not care whether or not
his sons and daughters shall be
sent to the House Of Refuge will
not make any effort to control his
children but will allow them to be
upon the streets at all hours of the
night, associating with older boys
and girls who are always ready to
engage in vicious practices. If
some of the boys and girls shall be
sent to the House of Refuge their
parents can blame themselves for
their children's downfall. Home
discipline is much to be preferred
to imprisonment in the training Of
children.

Breweries and Local Option.

The big brewing concerns of the
state have been contributing large
sums annually to prevent legisla-
tion lnimical to their interests. 1t
is announced from Pittsburg that a
big fund is to be raised to fight the
local option sentiment that is rapid
ly gaining ground throughout the
country, The brewers are respon-
sible in a very great measure TOR
the growth of this temperance sen,
timent. They were not satisfied
with manufacturing and selling
beer, but they have engaged in the
business of promoting saloons. The
greed and avarice of the beer max
er has created a strong public pre-
judice against the whole traffic and
the legitimate dealer will suffer
alike with the low dive keeper.

The Game Warden's Story.

The game warden OF Colorado was
walking out in the mountains the
other day when he met a hunter with
gun. The official suggested that
that ought to be q good country for
hunting.

proudly. II killed one of the finest
bucks yesterday l ever saw, and hs
weighed over 200." 1t was the
season when deer may not be shot
without subjecting the hunter to .
heavy fine.

warden, "and do you know who you
are talking to?"
Being assured that he did not.
the ofIlcual said:
why, I am the chief game war
den of Colorado"
The hunter was only taken aback
moment when he said:
And do you know who you are
talking tor"
The warden did not know.
We'll, sir" said the hunter, ap-
parently much relieved, you are
talking to the biggest liar In the
