JUST THOUGHTS

Each selfish act is a brick In
the wall of self-made prison.
The fires Of true love warm
a mans heart; the counterfeit
merely scorches his fingers.
Do you make life comfortable
or uncomfortable for others7
Think it over until tomorrow.

The Japanese gardens were first
started in miniature landscapes in

so that dwarfing of trees and shrubs
became a necessity, copying the true
landscape and giving the impression

pie will save their old papers and
give some specified day of the week
or month on which they can be
called for regularly. the committee
will do the rest. Almost every per-

and there is no reason why the Red

receive from this source several dol

has been set, but. if anything, it is
too low. There is no reason why it
should not be passed. 1t all depends
upon the individuals. If the people

There was imposed upon the Tele-
graph last Saturday story injuri-
ously affectine DR.. j. E. Oxley of
this city and Miss Idella Fisher, oc
Steelton, IA teacher in the schools of
the borough. The item was received
through the mails in the usual rou-

passed in the social department with
out the customary investigation as to
its authenticity. Upon attention be-
ing called to the item, which had
reference to the alleged marriage Of
DR.. Oxley and Miss Fisher. the mat
ter was investigated and the whole
story found to be utterly baseless. a
falsehood manufactured out of the
whole cloth.
The Telegraph regrets this publ
cation, but still more regrets that the
malicious or foolish perpetrator in
his or her Infamous purpose to in
jure two very reputable persons sue

newspaper to that end.
