The case of II. r. McCalmont VS..

It's the Same Everywhere.

The following paragraphs, the first from
the Titusyille Herald and the second from
the Oil City Blizzard, size up the game
situation about as it prevails throughout
this section, where game usually abounds
in good quantity;
Several Pittsburg hunters, who have
been securing this section for birds for
several days, will leave for home to-day.
They have not met with any better sue
cess than local sportsmen. Sometimes
whole days tramp is rewarded with
single bird; and sometimes il isn't"
"The experience of these parties is that
of all hunters who have been out in this
section. There is practically no game,
and hunting hereabouts is simply
waste of time and axle-gresse. This is
the verdict of all who have tried it. And
the same conditions prevail over all OF
Western Pennsylvania. At Bradford the
Mallory brothers, who are among the
best shots in the state, after hunting three
or four days without any success, gave it
1t up and determined totry 1t in the West.
Some Oil City parties who spent three
days in the vicinity of Pithole shot
only three or four birds; three men who
were ont Friday failed to find a feather.
Ruffed grouse are very scarce, about the
only ones found being old birds. The
weather conditions last spriug, at about
nesting season, were so unfavorsble that
very few were Matched, and the ones that
got out of the shells were unable tn sur
vive the cold rains. This is the principal
reason for the scarcity, and hunters
would do we'll to refrain from further de-
pleting the stock. A few woodcock are
found and some sport may be obtained
seeking the pipers, along the runs. oc-
casionslly a squirrel is seen, but not
often. Rabbits are reasonably plenty
and those who enjoy chasing them can
have some fun as soon as The snow comes
To state the hunting is good is mislead-

There is only one way to cure deafness,

VOTE for George w. Holeman is
vote to place in Office man who has been
a resident OF Forest county from birth.
A worthy iellowmsn who has earned his
bread by hard days work and kept his
standing and credit up to the highest
standard, and who has performed his
duty faithfully and well in whatever
station in life he has been placed; always
honest and trustworthy, never deceitful
in the least degree, but ready at all
times to stand or fall upon his record as a
man. 1t strikes us that is the sort Of
man the plain people delight to honor

which he has been loyal member from
the day he became man. Give him
your cheerful, hearty support.

In the training OF children, the
grsvest problem that confronts the con-
scientious parent Is the formation of
habits of truthfuluess and the eradication
of deception, the inherant trait which has
been the defense of the weak against the
strong since the infancy OF the human
race, when the cave child hid its bit of
marrow bone, licked its greasy fingers
and told lie. Admitting that your child
will lie, the next thing to do is to find its
motiye; what kind of lies does he tell?
There is always a motive, and the only
way 10 build up a character of truthful
ness is to find what this is and use it as a
working basis. Motives are many and
include the shrinking from physical pain
fear of censure or redicule, the desire
for praise, selfishness, and oftimes t.
avoid hurting the feelings or prospects o
