$50 Decisions for Sabbath School.

The reports received from the
canvass for new members for

flying. Seven schools in the coun
ty have reported namely, the five
schools in McConnellsburg, the
Burnt Cabins NJ. Z. and the Big
Cove Tannery Lutheran. In Nc
Connellsburg; alone, "a new de-
disions were made. Two schools
outside outside of town did re-
markably well. The total so far
reported is $50 new members.
But, not only in numbers have
the schools been benefited but in
real personal face to face work:
in-as-much as every school which
has made the canvass has report
ed decided increase in personal
spiritual life. Any member of
the County Association will be
pleased to advise the Superinten-
dents, how to make your canvass.

are made Of. We have so much
faith IN them that we urge you
to try them at our risk. If they

that you want them to do-if they
don't restore your stomach to
health and make your digestion
easy-just tell us and we will give
back your money without a word
or question.

two of the greatest digestive aids
known to medical science, they

ing, help IN the secretion of gas
trio juice, check heartburn and
distress, prom tie regular bowel
action, ard make it possible for
you TO eat whatever you like when

ing assurance that there will be
no bad aftereffects. We believe

Glad to see them.
During the cold days of this
winter, Miss Maud Gress, of Jug
town, made twenty-five quilt
patches each containing forty-five
pieces-1125 in all. She advises
the girls that this is a good way
to keep their fingers warm in the
winter time.

week sharing with her brother
Joe and wife the joys that come
with a first Of April fitting.
They are moving from South
Mercersburg into the town, and
he will be closer to his work at
the tannery.
Last year at this time you could
see fishermen at almost any hour
of the day buying tackle and get
ting ready for the first day of
trout fishing. The cold weather
must have made them forget all
about it this year. However, we
will expect just as big fish sto-
ries after April 18th.
Ida, seven-year old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Elmer Ander-

All the Governors of the res
pective states of the Union, have
been asked to declare May End a
holiday this year in favor of Wo-
man Suffrage. President Wilson
has been asked by the ladies to
make the day a national holiday
for the year 1914. One minister
in each town has been requested
to preach a sermon on Suffrage
on April Goth.
We are not finding fault, but
we know for a surety that dogs
and cats destroy quail's nests to
such extent that bitter complaint
is made in some quarters. A
flock of quail on the farm will eat
every potato bug they can find;
but, of course, neither your nor
my dog or cat would disturb their
nests-it's always the other fell
lows that destroys them. Speak
to him about it.

You may know it, or you may not but the truth is, that Queen
Quality Shoes are manufactured by the largest Shoe Factory in the
whole United States. The Queen Quality factory makes more
shoes, and sells more shoes than any other. This should be the
best evidence that they sell good goods. If the shoes we're not all
that they are represented to be, the Queen Quality people could
not do the business they are doing. We have handled the Queen
Quality shoes for five years, and our trade in them has grown
steadily with that of the factory. Now, If you have a hard foot to
fit, come in and let us try to fit you. If we do not happen to have
in stock your size and width, we can get it for you in three or four
days and it will not mean any extra cost to you, either. The prices
run from $3.50 to $500. We have shoes to fit your whole family,
and prices to fit your pocket book.
