Liverymen Responsible.

A recent decision of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania makes a livery
man responsible If a patron is injured
through the yiciousness of horse
hired. The opinion of the Supreme
Court is as follows:
1.-THE relation between livery stable
keeper and his customer is that of
bailor and bailee for hire, and the for
mer assumes the liability which the
contract of bailment imposes. When
the 5ailor let's horse for hire he i'm.
pliedly promises or warrants that the
animal is fit and suitable for the pur-
pose for which the customer has hired
it. 1t is the duty Of the livery stable
keeper to inform himself of the habits
and disposition OF the horses which he
keeps in his stable for hire, and II he
knows that they are dangerous and
unsuitable or by the exercise Of reason
able care could ascertain the fact he
is liable for any injuries resulting to
his customers resulting from their
vicious propensities.

Vetoed School Code.

Governor Stuart vetoed the school
code, new educational measure passed
by the recent state legislature, and
gave the following reason for using the
veto AK on it.:
"The bill drafted by the Pennsy lvania
State Educational Commission and SUBJ
mitted to the Legislature was so
changed by amendments during its
passage through the Legislature, many
OF the best features OF the original
draft being eliminated and numerous
amendments made which destroyed the
harmony of the bill by introducing
many contradictory provisions, that it
Is more than doubtful whether an ap.
proval Of the bill would be Of any bene-
fit to the cause of education in the
state"
The Governor further stated that the
bill had been tampered with and that
1t did not pass the legislature in the
form in which it was presented TO him
for executive action.

Prisoners on Probation.

Governor Stuart recently signed Il
bill, which is now law, providing that
offenders need not be sent to prison but
may he released on probation, subject to
such regulations as the court may deem
advisable, and If fines have been i'm
posed the money may be paid in INSTALL
ments from the proceeds of useful en-
ployment In which the convicted per-
son may be engaged while on probation.
Burglary, murder, and few OF the
grosser crimes are exceptions to the
probation act. This system has been
tried and carried out very successfully
In several of the states and the same
system is being carried out in little
different way in the juvenile court
system The idea is reform for the
criminal rather than punishment 1t
has proved a success in reforming
large percentage of offenders, and at
the same time has not caused an in
crease OF crime on account of its easier
sentence than prison confinement.

Entitled to Best Efforts.


The place that gives man his liv-
ing, says the Ridgwav Advocate is en-.
titled to his best efforts to advance
everything calculated to benefit the
place and the community. No man
has a right to live in live town who
seeks to enrich himself and not actively
identify himself with its interests. To
be classed as drone, or chronic
kicker and opposed to every measure
believed to be for the good of the
citizens is a stigma that should attach
to no man In the corporation. The
improvements necessary to be made
and the manner of making them a
monument to the enterprise and intelli-
gence Of the citizens is a duty each
person owes to the place in which he
lives. No man has q right to block
legislation 10 his town simply because
he is not personally benefited by the
proposed improvements or perchance
may have to pay q little toward It, for
In the end 1t will no doubt have proven
. wise proceeding.

influences o. nature is illustrated by
the change which comes over us when
we take walk in the country, or
among new scenes. Nature then gently
clears away our anger, fear, gloom or
disappointment and imparts new
strength. There is none of the fret and

there is In the life of man, but instead
each process goes on quietly, persis-

just as man should prosecute all of his

OF nature, which, In elect, stands at our
elbow ever ready to help us on in the

dynamic possibilities Of that force
which is moving on in the winds bend

oak; in the sweep OF the tides, the flow
OF rivers; in the movement of celestial

health when he, in his foolishness, has
transgressed some laws. Keep in touch

Moth Preventive.

AS this II the season of the year
when winter clothing is being put
away until needed again, and house,
keepers want to know how to keep the
moths from destroying the same, We
publish the following from Prof. Fl.
A. Surface, the State Zoologist: "As
a preventive OF moths in cases con-
taini,g clothing, there is nothing like
making the cases In which they are
packed 80 tight that the moth cannot
enter to lav her eggs, from which eggs
the larvae come. prefer naphthaline
balls to camphor, but II the garments
are wrapped in newspapers and put
into a protected case and this sealed
with strips of paper pasted over the
cracks at every possible point of entry
to keep out the moths there will be
no danger of the moths developing
Camphor or naphthaline balls can be
used in the packages also, but these
alone will not prevent the occurrence
OF the moths, nor destroy the moth
larvae after they have entered. The
chief point in protecting fabrics from
destruction by moths is to keep them
in a vessel where the little winged
moth cannot enter to lay its eggs. An
aid to this Is the use of some substance
like the balls aboye mentioned, which
act as a repellant. After the clothing
is attacked destroy the pests at once
by fumigating with bisulfid of carbon, ;,
