Empty Cider Keqs.

The year 1913 will go into history
as the season when the cider keg
which is to be found in the cellar of
every we'll regulated Vermont farm
house remained empty. The reason
for this almost unprecedented condi-
ton of things is the total failure of
the apple crop because of late spring
frosts followed by dry season. The
failure of the mills which usually make
cider to start their presses have
caused a retrun to primitive methods
in order to get small quantity of the
popular drink in some places, persons
having the hand presses of a genera
ton or two ago going about among
neighbors who happened to have a
few trees in sufficiently sheltered po-
sition so that they were not affected
by the frost of growing at such a high
altitude that the buds were not suffi-
GENTLY developed to be blighted by the
frosts of May.-Rutland News.

PUBLIC SERVICE
WANTS TO Be SHOWN
Not Making Recommendations Ex-
cept Where the Necessity Is
Clearly Established
WILKES-BARRE CASE SETTLED
Commission Fixed Portions of Cost
of a Bridge When Parties
Could Not Agree

The Public Service Commission has
ruled that it must be shown" and
last night dismissed the petition for
additional train service on the East
Penn branch of the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway. The petitioner-C.
C. Fiscus, of Mertztown-wanted train
accommodation from the city of AL
lentown to his home after the train
from New York reaches Allentown at
7.35 p. M, but there was no testimony
offered to show to what extent people
would take advantage of such train
service in the evening, or to what eH-
tent the demand for it was based upon
the needs of the community. The
commissions view is that it would not
be reasonable to compel the respond
ent to incur the expense of installing
an additional train for service that is
not more clearly and fully established
by the complainant.
The commission issued an order ap-
proving the petition of the city of
Wilkes Barre for an overhead bridge
from Kidder street to Butler street,
across the tracks of the Lehigh Valley,
the Delaware and Hudson and the
Central Railroad Company of New
Jersey. The parties to the proceeding
failed to agree upon the respective
proportions of the expense each should
bear, and the commission ordered that
it should be paid in the following pro-
portions: City of Wilkes Barre, 40
per cent; Lehigh Valley, 20 per cent;
Delaware and Hudson, 17la per cent;
Central Railroad Company of New
Jersey, II Y per cent. The commission
adds that it will expect the city of
Wilkes-Barre to exercise reasonable
care and diligence in seeing to its that
the contract for the construction of
the viaduct will be awarded to the
lowest responsible bidder
The commission also ordered the
Pittsburgh, Harmony, Butler and New
Castle Railway Company to provide
adequate sanitary facilities for its pa
irons at its station in the borough of
Ellwood. This improvement is to be
made in conformity with plans salts
factory to the health officers of the
borough and to be completed by jan
uary 1 of next year.
The question of what service an in
dustrial railroad must render to en-
able it to receive allowances for serv-
ices from trunk line was placed be-
fore the commission last night for de-
termination. Attorneys for trunk lines
and railroads owned by various steel
argued the proposition before the
whole commission practically all day,
hearings having been held on appeals
by a dozen or more short lines" in
the last six months. The question
arose last summer when the Interstate
Commerce Commission declared the
industrial not entitled to allowances
and agreements were cancelled. The
Pennsylvania commission held in the
Monongahela Connecting Railroad
case that the Short lines were entitled
TO allowances and dozen or more
lines appealed for orders to have al
lowanceS restored.
The commission will give its decis-
ion later ou

Lord, thou hast given me a CELL
Wherein to dwell;
A little house, whose humble roof

Under the spares of which I lie
Both soft and drie:
Where Thou, my chamber for to ward,
Hast sent a guard
OF harmless thoughts, to watch and

Me, while l sleep.
Low is my porch, as is my fate,
Both void or state;
And yet the threshold of my doors
Is worne by,th poore,
Who thither come, and freely get
Good words or meat.
Like as my parlour, so my hall
And kitchens small;
A little butter!e, and there&
A little byn,
Which keeps my little loafs of bread
Unchipt, unflead;
Some brittle sticks or throne or briar
Make me a fire,
Close by whose living coale I sit,
And glow like it.
Lord, I confess, too, when I dine,
The pulse is Thine,
And all those other bits that bee
There placed by Thee;
The worts, the purslain, and the messe
of water cresse

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Z
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
