What Women Are Doing

HI HINGS that lead to marriage are
almost as numerous as things
n that lead from it. For example,
here is a young couple led to matri-
mony through az lump of sugar. Not
that they passed through the sugar,
ledgerdemain like, but the sugar was
responsible for their marriage. The
young couple is composed, naturally,
of two persons. Their names are Clo-
tilda Johnson and Arthur II. Kelly.
They live in Manhattan. The story
goes thus:
The two of them met at a dinner
table on the floating hotel, the Ar
buckle, lying at the foot of East Twen-
ty-third street. Manhattan, two years
ago. They found themselves seated in
q straight line opposite each other at
the table. Miss Johnson asked Mr.
Kelly to pass the sugar, please. He
was more than pleased to pass it. Miss
johnson took one lump. 1t was the
fatal lump. Later they men and Kelly,
still later 1t is to be hoped, told
Miss Johnson that as sure as the vine
grows round the stump, she had 1t
all over sugar when 1t came to a ques-
tion of sweetness. Sounds silly, doesn't
it., but 1t is not, or 1t led to marriage,
one of the nations greatest institu-
tions.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kelly now live in a
snug little suite in Brooklyn. In honor
of the lump of sugar which brought
them together, it is said, they have
sugar on their table at each meal.
Mrs. w. r. Chivis, st. Louis. had
said something about the general fed
Grafton of womens clubs. Mrs. Chivis
is the state vice president for Mis-
souri,, so she ought to know. No one
would dare assert that Mrs. Chivis
doesn't know Mrs. Chivis, before
leaving st. Louis for the Cincinnati
biennial, gave the federation particu-
lar fits, as they say behind the coun-
ters in the department stores. 1.-The
federation is a big show and 1t needs
strenuous reorganization" she said.
Would not that make you shudder long
and loud? She also made a number of
other remarks not so very nice about
the way the federation monkeys at
it's conventions and wastes lots of
good time.
Mrs. Chivis is one of the leading wo-
men of the Missouri federation. She
has brought more clubs into her state
federation in the last three years than
any other woman in the state. She Is
well known in the general federation
and was one of the tellers at the cleo
ton at the Boston biennial in 1908.

RAISES BID; COURT MAKES
MAN GIVE WOMAN HALF
FeeIey and Divorced Wife Have
Auction to Settle Row

Frank Feeley and his divorced wife
were the bidders on a lot in an auction
held in Judge James court yesterday
by a receiver appointed by the court
to look after the property when the
couple failed to agree on a division
Mrs. Feeley, who is a matron at the
city Jail, made a bid of $3.50 and with
much vehemence the husband raised
it to $3.50. The court then ordered him
to turn over $1133.50. half of the amount,
after the subtraction of attorneys fees,
as community property.
Mrs. Feeley's attorney wanted the
settlement postponed for a day or two
to make out the papers, but Feeley in
sisted on paying the money yesterday.
The opposing attorney did not think
he would be able to pay the cash at
once and after strenuous objections on
the part of Feeley the settlement was
held over until the afternoon.

WORKING FOR GOOD ROADS.

In an eudeavor to stimulate interest
In the "Good Roads" movement in the
states through which it operates, the
Pennsylvania Railroad has Issued a
pamphlet entitled "Good Roads at Low
Cost" This booklet Is being given a
wide distribution in the country
districts throughout Pennsylvania Rail-
road territory.
"Good Roads at Low Cost" was
written for the Pennsylvania Railroad
by d. Ward King, who is an acknowl-
edged expert on road making. He is
the author of a pamphlet distributed by
by the Department of Agriculture some
time ago.
While the management OF the
Pennsylvania Railroad has for some
time been keenly interested in the
subject of good roads, in the past year
1t has redoubled its efforts in this
direction Meetings OF agents have
been held at different points, while the
General Managers staff has also taken
up the subject of improving the roads
radiating from the Comany's stations.
The Railroad Company has had d.
Ward King, the inventor Of the split
log drag, which the farmers make
themselves, deliver lectures at various
stations In the State of Pennsylvania.
The split log drag, which can be made
by any one following the directions
given in the pamphlet just issued by
the Railroad Company, has been used
with telling effect in many parts of the
country. A number of these drags
have been placed at various Pennsyl-
vania Railroad stations throughout the
State of Pennsy' vana in order that
road supervisors and Others might
operate them.
The Railroads activity in the "Good
Roads" movement is actuated by the
desire to have the highways leading
from the stations in passable condition
during all seasons of the year. In the
winter months, thousands OF miles of
dirt roads are almost impossible, and
farmers are unable to get to and from
railroad stations, thereby causing a
congestion of traffic when roads are
opened.
The Railroad Company has, there
fore, interested itself In good roads with

later served as journal clerk in the
senate, In both OF which positions he
proved himself man Of ability and
tact. Norths record was even more
brilliant 10 the house. When the
country members were battling for
their rights, North was chosen their
leader and succeeded In securing for
them the legislation they desired, one
very important matter being the reap
portonment bill which gave Jefferson
county another member In the house of
representatives. Jefferson county has
not for many years had the opportunity
to send two such able men to represent
1t at Harrisburg.

WALKING.

II you are not disciple of Thoreau at
this season of the year, become one.
You who do not know the Joy of
wandering at leisure through the wild
woods, over lonely paths and quiet
stretches of fields, or have never picked
your way along some woody stream
stepping from stone to stone, listening
to the music Of the flowing water, have
yet new sensation to experience. In
the last days of summer there is a
charm about the outdoors that is
fascinating In the extreme and is
heightened by the languor that hangs
over everything and proclaims dying
season.
1t is passing strange that country SO
rich in natural scenery as the regin
surrounding Reynoldsville should have
so few devotees Of walking. There are
sections within five or six mile radius
of town that are more romantic than
ever was delineated by an artists
pencil, and some as wild as ever 1t was
In primeval days. You cannot see these
hidden beauties riding along the beaten
highways. You must take the paths
and follow the streams and leave all
trace Of civilization behind you. Then,
when lost in the heart of some wild
wood you will realize the truth of the
saying that the "groyes were Gods
first temples" and feel veneration
greater than ever comes from visit to
all-too-often dark and gloomy churches
in the town.

A DIGNIFIED CAMPAIGN

Roman f. Koehler, formerly mayor
OF West Reynoldsville, now editor OF
| the Donora American, was friend Of
John X. Tener, the gubernatorial
candidate, long before he entered
politics, and In the last issue OF the
American had the following to say OF
Tener's personal character:
When John X. Tener first entered
politics some three years ago and was
candidate for congressional hOnors his
opponent, who owned and controlled
number OF newspapers began a
scurrillous attack on Tener, In news
columns, editorially and by cartoons.
Unknown to Mr. Tener some of his
friends prepared to answer these by
similar methods. Cartoons suggestive
of improper alliances of his opponent
were printed aud ready for circulation,
but Tener himself upset their plans.
He requested that they be destroyed.
He advised his friends to let the other
side do all the mudslinglng. And
Tener won bya handsome majority.
g The present campaign is being con-
Quoted along the same lines, The
opposition is producing all the SANDER
and villifcation, Mr.. lTener, in a
digniied manner is letting the people
know OF his plans for their welfare, to
be carried out II he is elected governor.
To do otherwise would be contrary to
his nature and not In harmony with
either his private or public record.
He is not grand stander" nor shot
air" orator, but he is sincere and will do
just what he says he will do. His
business rivals and competitors will
unanimously youch for his integrity
and fairness.
