The Best Vacation.

As we are now in the very thick OF
the vacation season it is quite proper
to inquire how many of the thousands
who are now trying to enjoy their
vacation season will be able to do so
by obtaining that complete change OF
habis of work and worry which I'M
niles quiet, rest aud recuperation. An
old vacationer arrives at the folIoing
conclusions:
1.-THE nearer he can approach the
simple life in the lone. obscure and
quite rural home the nearer can he
come to the true ideal of beneficial
and healthful change. Every physical
function needs it in greater or less de-
gree-the brain more sleep, the stom-
ach easier digestion and the muscles
less strain and ache. Such change
implies an opportunity to take fresh
hold on the life line, respite for
new breath in the wasting and exact
ing race in town. A distinguished
ueurologist has said that the main
benefit of vacation for the busy
worker is plenty of sleep. This i'm
plies lots of accessories-long and
quiet hours of night, easy digestion
and the farmer light supper, muscles
not over fatigued, abundance OF pure
air and sunlight, but above all free
dom from "care and worry.
The long and short of it is that the
tired man or woman who seeks recrea-
tion ought to avoid the crowded fash
ionable resorts and seek communion
with nature rather than with man.
Those citizens who have secured quart
ers in some quiet country spot, erect
ing and simply furnishing their own
cottages and retiring to them when
the July sun begins to blaze probably
the wisest of men. They are not dis
tracted by the noise and clamor of the
outside world they are surrounded by
the beauties of nature they may walk
or read or converse or sleep as the
spirit moves them; they are free from
business cares and annoyances. In
short, they are rebuilding themselves
and getting ready for another season
of strenuous labor.

So numerous have been the applica-
tions for space from manufacturers
and merchants, and specialized trades.
that hundreds of them have had to be
denied. Besides the educational and
commercial benefits of the Fair. there
will be a spectacular and artistic offer

tertains. These theatrical attractions
are known as laugh producers and
smile compellers. Among them are
Ferrari's world known animal show.
one of the highest priced acts in
vaudeville, and the Darktown Fire
Brigade in their act of Fighting the
Flames. "
During the week of the Fair all the
railroads will run cheap excursion
trains. The public response to the Big
Wilkes-Barre Fair management's pro-
spectus has been so great and immedi-
ate that it has even surprised it's pro-
moters. and there is not the slightest
doubt but that August 26 will be a red

Extending the Sewer Pipe.

superintendent of Sewers p J. Keef
er has force OF men at work at the
mouth Of the sewer preparing to ex-
tend the pipe forty-eight feet further
out into the river with the hope of
improving the unsanitary conditions
which exist at the lower end of town.
The four joints OF 24 inch iron pipe
were hauled down to the river yester-
day. The plan in sinking this pipe is
to give it fall of several feet SO that
in addition to carrying the sewage
further out into the stream the mouth
of the pipe as extended Will be below
the present level OF the water Wheth-
er this plan will werk as anticipated
remains to be seen.
slight rise of water after the pipe
is laid would help things along very
much while if there should be no rise,
or if what is worse the river should
fall still lower it is feared the aosence
of current about the mouth CT the
sewer would be drewback and that
the sewage would not pass off very
readily. The remedy being applied,
however, is the only one that suggests
itself and the manner in which coun-
Gil is taking hold of tire work shows
that it is anxious to du what it can to
relieve conditions.
The sinking of the pipe involves a
great deal of work. Before anything
at all could be done a Golfer dam had
to be constructed excluding the water
from the area TO be intersected b. the
forty eight feet of pipe. Conditions
are exceedingly unpleasant for the
workmen owing to the deposit of sew
age lying all about the mouth of the
pine

TRIED 8 TIMES
TO ROB GREEK

For the second time in three weeks
burglars made AN Intellectual attempt
to rifle the Sugar Bowl store early
Monday morning. The only circumst-
ance which prevented the success of
their attempt was that the sound of a
ripping wire screen aroused the in
mates of the building, and they re-
manned Oh guard the rest of the night.
The Sugar Bowl is conducted by two
Greeks, Messrs. Vuruakis aud Kosti
anes, who live in the upper apartments
of the building. Shortly after mid
night Monday morning they were
awakened by noise below their
rooms. Running down stairs into the
store they saw two men running into
the rear yard and found a large hole
IN the wire screen, and marks which
showed that the burglars had tried to
rip off the whole netting and enter the.
store through the S.windows. The
thieves had seen the Greeks coming
down stairs and were in full flight be-
fore they could be apprehended.
Scarcely had the Greeks gone back
to bed when they again heard the rob
bers trying to break into the store, and
again they drove them away
The same performance was repeated
a third time, after which the Greeks
stayed up all night on guard.
h.
kitchen behind the store was found
broken open but nothing was stolen.
Several weeks ago burglars attempt.
ed to rob the Sugar Bowl but were
driven off by the Greeks armed with
butcher knives.-Sunbury Daily.
