LOCAL MIdNTION.

Yesterday was perfect day Tor
the Wayne County Fair.
The High School football team
and the Port Jervis High school
team will play at Athletic Park on
Saturday afternoon.
The Women's Home Missionary
society of the Methodist church held
it's annual opening of mite boxes at
the Methodist parsonage Thursday
night. There was social pro-
gramme rendered after which the
mite boxes were opened. The con-
tents, amounting to $39.37, will be
sent directly to Berkeley, CAL, for
the support of the Chinese children
in that city.
The German printers of picture
postal cards already are beginning
to feel the effect of the new tarin
law. Heretofore they controlled
this industry, and even the illustra-
tions of American views were made
in Germany" and shipped to Ameri-
can dealers. All is changed now,
and the art printers of Berlin, Leip-
zig and Munich are seeking other
channels for a large part of their
reproductions. 1t is hard blow for
the German postal card industry.
Mr.. Paul Gilmore will be seen
with his company at the Lyric on
"wednesday, Oct. 6, in his annual
offering, his present vehicle being
the new comedy-drama of the north
ern Canadian frontier, "The Call of
the North" written by George
Broadhurst, author of "The Man OF
the Hour" and taken from Stewart
Edward Whites novel, "Conjurer's
Home; a play in which Mr.. Gilmore
is said to have surpassed all of his
former hits. Newspapers elsewhere
have described this as stirring, ro-
mantle and intensely interesting
drama.
"A moving picture machine in q
crowded Nickelet on Main street,
at Old Forge, exploded last Friday
night, throwing the audience into a
small panic. The building is an
old affair and had no exits except
the front door, which was cut OF
by mass of flames. The fire was
right over the door, and as the peo-
pie saw that their only way of exit
was mass of biting flames they
became so terrified that it was
hard to control them. Presence OF
mind on the part of the operator
finally caused an end to the blazing
film. Tony Colerico operated the
place.

from that, everyone was more than
pleased. From the rising of the

round of applause for the expert

It's Dead Easy.

Too poor to take a home paper?
Well, that is distressful condition.
Buy a hen, feed her crumbs and
waste from the kitchen and she will
lay eggs to pay for a years sub
scription; then work her up into
pot pie and she will pay first cost;
so the paper will be clear profit.
Repeat this process year after year,
meanwhile learn wisdom and cease
to be poor.

HAVE FIRM BELIEF IN FAIRIES
Curious Superstitions That Are Still
Prevalent in ireland.

In Ireland there have been for many,
many ages curious superstitions re-
garding fairies In the old time these
imagined little elfina We're thought to
be half human and half spirit nature,
aad had strange powers over mankind.
The good folk of Erin used to propiti-
ate the fairies in many ways. q few OF
them being as follows
If child spilled milk on the floor
the mother would say: That's for the
fairies" thinking that some fairy had
caused the accident. Thus the careless
child went unrcprimanded. If one were
throwing slops out of t. window or
door she must cry out to the fairies:
'Take care # the water!" Otherwise
some fairy passing mighl get drenched,
and retaliate in some unpleasant man
ner. If a horseshoe was nailed over
the door it would prevent the fairies
from entering to 1e mischief to the in
mates. If small piece of iron were
sewed into an infants garment the
fairies would never molest it by eaus-
ing it to suffer collie pains. IF large
vessel filled with pure drinking water
vera placed In the kitchen at night the
fairies on entering would not touch
the food there, but content themselves
with drinking the water.

press and the South mississippi evening
papers, The Echo last Saturday evening
published exclusively the announcement
of the appointment by Governor Noel OF
Hon, Thomas H. Barrett to succeed

The appointment is an admirable one

ton, for he placed the trust in keeping
of one whose general ability and fine
sense of legal discernment, integrity and
moral elements qualify him for the
honor. Such appointment sheds lustre
and both the Governor and the Judge
elect and the people of the district as
we'll are to be congratulated.
The appointment will become active
on Jan. /, 1910, when Judge Hardy's
present term will expire.

ROMANCE MORE IN THEIR LINE.
Factory Workers Criticism of Louisa
M. AIcott's Great Story.

In a conversation about books which
the author of "The Long Day" had
with two of her workmates at a box
factory, she spoke enthusiastically
of Little Women and told them how
she had read it four times, and that
she meant to read it again some day.
Little Women" was unknown to
them, but their curiosity was reused
over the unheard-of thing of any
body ever wanting to read a
book more than once, and they
pressed her to repeat the story for
them. This she did with great accu-
racy of statement, and with genuine
pleasure to herself at being given an
opportunity to introduce anybody to
Meg and 10 and all the rest of that
delightful March family
When she finished, Phoebe stopped
work and Mrs. Smith looked up from
aer iabel-pasting, saying: why, that's
40 story at all"
why, no." echoed Phoebe, that's
DO story-that's just everyday hap
penings. I don't see what's the use
putting things like that in books. I'll
bet any money that lady what wrote

just sound like real, live people; and
when you was telling about them

ously suggested They amt used to

city folks are,"-Youth's Companion.

A Boston physician tells story OF a
youngster of his own that al over.
strenuous vacation had put ON the SICK
list. The father had an appropriate
prescription filled, and left the U ttt.e
with the childs mother. As she, hsw-
aver, is very forgetful, he gave her a

the hours when the medicine should
be given, checking off each dose as
taken. Upon returning from his EVEN
ing calls, however, ne found tho chart
blank.
Good gracious, Mary" he exclaimed;
iisurely you haven't failed to give Tom

"Oh, no, did not miss single
time" his wife assured him.
How IN the world did you remem.

it, and half hour before each tina

Monday and Officers for Ensuing Year
Elected

The Mississippi Oyster Commission
met at Gulfport in regular monthly
session On Monday, and, after electing
officers to serve for the ensuing year
and transacting routine business, the
trolley car was boarded and the party
repaired to Francois Restaurant at BI-
loxi, where a repast-not the wlneless
kind Biloxi has become famous for-but
one of the genuine type with good things
to eat and drink. The Commission was
the guest of Chief Inspector r. NJ.
Mosley, of Biloxi.
The officers elected were as follows:
J. D. Minor, of Ocean Springs, presi-
dent; r. M. Mosley, of Biloxi, chief

Louis, the retiring president, in spite OF
the fact that he had signified his inten-
ton on a previous occasion not to stand
for reelection, was nominated for the
honor nevertheless, but he made
brief, but well-worded, address, IN
which he thanked the Board for its
good will and corporation during his
administration. In response he was
congratulated upon the splendid success
which had characterized his work; that
he had inaugurated and maintained a
system that frequently during the year
was the occasion for complimentary
comment.
Hon. Walter J. Gex, of Bay st. Louis,
member of the Commission, was also
present. He had occasion to address
the body, and his flow OF wisdom and
oratory was feature of the proceedings
The disappointment OF Mr.. Ladner as

gratulate him upon his success,

STICK TO YOUR HOME TOWN.

We all know that advertising pays.
1t applies not only to business, but to
the town or city in which you reside.
It Is very bad habit to drill into the
too common fashion OF abusing the
place in which you reside. i business
gets dull, trade falls off and the future
books little dreary, don't drop back
and say: "This town is dead one; |
wish had quit it when | had money !"
Such a declaration is certainly not 60
ing to do you any good. Admitted that
in good many places there are OBJ
structionists, men whose funerals would
really mean blessing, it is not going to
help matters any to join their ranks. 1t
is only ar opening for you to do more
pushing. If you have not local mer-
chants association every place, no
matter how small, ought to have one
get out and organize one. Remember,
some one must always take the lnltla-
tive. With such an organiza alton a
WnQle iot'Cdn OC oohS' hfSA s1S AA~'A
ers will come to respect due amount
of enterprise. Put your shoulder to the
wheel. Endeav-r to get all fellow mer-
chants to join you in boosting. See
that every stranger who gets off train
is impressed with the advantages and
possibilities of residing there. Many a
place has been made by its citizens
joining in the universal declaration that
it is good place to live, that its future
is bright, that owning property is a
good thing and that results are certain
Be an optimist. Don't fight your fel-
low dealers, but join with them in push
ing things. One or two determ ined
men, sticking eyerlastingly at it, can
change the sentiments of whole COM
munity. It's pleasant work, too. All
YOUR fellow -townsmen will respect you
for it, and the result is certain to be
beneficial. Above all things, never say
anything disparagingly cf town until
you have sold your stock, packed your
household goods, got them on a train,
bought your tickets for your new desti-
nation, and then don't-Ex.

HOW WE SAVED FOR A HOME.

Amelia, we could buy home, ii We
should try real hard.
So don't use butter any more, well
spread our bread with lard.
No more from rented house to house,
improyident, We'll roam.
Quick, put the furnace fire out: We're
saving for a home.
'Twould do US good, both you and me,
To get little thinner;
For breakfast we will eat stale bread,
and have cold tea for dinner.
Think how 1uxuriously we'll fare be-
meath our paid-for dome.
Well live on fifty cents week while
saving for home.
You might take in some washing, wife,
and keep some boarders, too.
Then do plain sewing half the night,
when other work is through.
No more vacation days for us by woods
or oceans foam;
No trolley rides shall take our dimes:
We're saving for home.
Amelia, you did nobly, dear, you led a
frugal life,
And now you lie beneath a slab marked
''Sacred to my Wife,;
And while your weary body rests be-
meath the churchyard loan
My second wife and reside within the
saved-for home.
NY second wife and reside within the
saved-for home.
Elsie Duncan Yale, in Harper's.
