The first external revelation of the dry- rot in men Is a tendency to lurk and lounge; to be at street corners without In telligible reason; to be going anywhere when met; to be about many places rather than any; to do nothing tangible, but to have an Intention of performing a num ber of tangible duties tomorrow or tbe day after. -Dickens. Up to date nearly fifteen hundred voters of Adams county, Ohio, have been disfranchised for giving and receiving bribes at tbe election in November, Doesn't this beat General Sherman's deft nilion of watt If one of our wide-awake Representatives at Harrisburg would make himself a name beshould introduce a bill to provide for a law similar to the Ohio eUtute. It cost tbe state $62,000 for special coun eel in tbe capitol graft cases. James Scarlett got $25,000, D. T. Watson, of Pittsburg, $20,000, and John K. Fox, of Harrisburg, $7,500. The $158,000 of uo paid warrants returned by Huston and Sanderson have been canceled by Auditor General SiBSon and District Attorney Weiss entered-up nolle pros, in thirty dropped criminal suits, tbe costs being psid. Tbe total cost to tbe state In the prosecution of these cases la the snug sum of $164,964.62. The plan of sending demonstration cars for lectures on agriculture has proved ao successful In tbe last few years tbat the same plan will be adopted lor DODular education In tbe cause of im proved highways.. Slate College author ities, tbe State highway department and the federal bureau of good roads are arranging to have cars tour tbe State this winter In the interest of better highways. The cars will be equipped with seats for lecturers, with exhibition or views, and will carrv models and data relative to good road constructiou. Tbe total acreage in Important crops in Pennsylvania for tbe last year according to "The Government Crop Report" for December, 1910, was 8,384,000 seres, and tbe combined value of crops was $172,- 362,500.00 The total amount of bushels was as lollows: Corn, 65,026,000; Wheat 27,697,000; Oats, 25,130,000; Barley, 238,- 000; Rye, 6,460,000; Buckwheat, 6.655.000 and Potatoes, 28,160,000. There were 41,433,000 tons of bay and 49,500,000 pounds of tobacoo produced. Pennsylvania Is first in tbe production of Rye, second in the production of Potatoes, Hay and Buckwheat and sixth in the production of Wheat and Tobacco. Ok all the senseless agitation tbat we have beard in many a day, this talk about draping tbe groups of statuary now be ing placed in the Capitol at Harrisburg is tbe most senseless. The less people know about art, or other things, and tbe grosser their mora ideals, tbe more likely tbey are to be shocked at nude statuary. If Pennsylvania wants to advertise itsell as a bvpocritical Rube, it could not do better than by covering tbe nudity of Sculptor Barnard's marble figures. Punxy Spirit. We are decidedly inclined to second the Spirits kick, sod are positively opposed to ibis unseemly baste to cover up these graceful statues, at least uutil our critical friend Smith has had a chance to cast bis conooisseurian eye upon the sculptor's masterpieces. There is, as a rule, too much disposi tion on the part of tbe individual of the present day to grumble, or to be more nearly up-to-date, "knock." People, as a rule, have been living at aeroplane speed, and, unless they can keep up Ibis gste, are apt to make a mighty "boiler." This tendency induces a wise exchange to suggest tbe following resolution for 1911: Quit grumbling. Cheer upl It bas be come a business habit to talk tbesituation down. Ask a business man bow business is, and tbe chances are tbat he will give you a melancholy answer. Ask him bow bis own business Is, and the chances are tbat be will acknowledge that "just now" it Ib pretty good, but tbat does not prevent tbe country going to tbe devil. When tbe years ends and be foots up tbe results be finds that be bas done well, better than be tbougnt; but that does not stand in the way of kicking about tbe outlook. This is very largely habit. Some attribute it to dyspepsia and attribute dyspepsia to prosperity. They may have some founda tion for their theory; but the plain fact is tbat, whatever tbe cause, tbe condition is not creditable. (iovernor Toner Inaugurated. With considerable splender and great eclat our new Governor was Inducted into office al Harrltthurg yesterday, a large assemblage gathering at the State capitol to witness the importaut event. Mr. Tener delivered bis Inaugural ad dress from the capital steps and in It gave many common sense and business. like hints of bow he intended to conduct bis administration and fulfill every pledge given by himself. and his party in the campaign that ended in his election. At tbe conclusion of the ceremonies the new Governor announced tbe principal mem bers of bis cabinet as follows: Robert McAfee, Pittsburg, secretary of the Commonwealth. Jobn C. Bell, Philadolpba, attorney general. Thomas J. Stewart, of Montgomery oounty, adjutant general. William II. Smith, Philadelphia, com uilssioner of tanking. Samuel C. Todd, Charleroi, executive controller. Harry MuDavltt. Philadelphia, assist ant controller. Walter U. Gaither, Pittsburg, private secretary. What saddened straits a man's wealth gets him iuto sometime! There is ex Senator Clark, the Montana magnate, who is to move Into his $7,000,000 New York City residence about tbe first of the year. That bouse contains lzi rooms, thirty-one baths, the largest pipeorgsn in the world, $2,000,000 worth of pictures, $500,000 worth of rugs, 600 tons of copper and bronze, aud four picture gulleiies, From these Items one can imagine what the rest of the mansion contains. What a load for one poor soul to beail A man may take what view be pleases about spending his money, but there is a great mistake in supposing it Is a guarantee against unbapplness. Oh ioState Journal Gains of millions in resource In a year are shown in tbe report made by State Rankiug Commissioner William N. Smith at Harrisburg, Pa., ou tbe operations of Pennsylvania trust companies. Slate banks and savings banks for 1!10. The report covers 289 trust companies, 139 state banks and 11 caving banks. The summary indicates the growth by a com parison between l'.HW and 1010, as follows: Trust companies, total resources, 1910 $t85, 149.582; 1900, $(172,!3.658; total trust funds, 1910, $851,864028; 1909. $783,256,581; corporate trusts 1910, $3,152,490,179; 1909, $3,000,477,715.

Dealers in oysters will be Interested in learning tbat tbe state pure Inod de partment is after those who sell oysters from receptacles In which ice or water has been placed with the bivalves. Un der tbe pure food law It Is Illegal to sell oysters except such only as are placed In their own juice. The putting of ice or water into cans with theoysters is punish able tinder tbe statutes, and state agents have been instructed to look up offenders. Up to recently It was no uncommon thing to find a big chunk of ice la oyster tubs, but within the past year or so tbe bivalves are shipped without ice or water coming in contact wltb them, giving purchasers only solid ments In a natural condition. Of course such bivalves cost more, but tbe difference of price is offset by tbe im provement In taste and freedom from Im purities that may be fonnd In ice. A few years ago a young man by tbe name of Farrell was compelled to leave High school in order to make a living. He found a job In a shop, at $1.50 a week, and took it, much to tbe disgust of some of bis associates, who at present are earn ing $18 a week as clerks and bookkeepers. He was not particularly stuck on the job, nor tbe compensation, ao be continued making bimselt valuable to bis em ployers and saveu some of his salary, wbilebis companions were spending a little more than they earned and were complaining of too much work and too little pay, wbile they smoked cigarettes, 1 be other day be was elected president of the largest corporation in tbe world- United Slates Steel -at a salary of $100, 000 a year Blizzard. Tbe moral is so plain tbat the young wayfarer, fool and all as be may be, need not err thereiu. The Sulloway pension bill giving a substantial increase to all veterans ol the Civil War has passed tbe bouse and there is every indication that it will be adopted. The bill as passed gives $15 instead of $12 a month to veteraus of 62 years and under 65, of whom there are 93,589; $20 instead of $12 to veterans of 65 and under 70, of whom there are 184,577; $25 instead of $15 to veterans of 70 and under 75, of whom there are 101,778; $36 instead of $20 to veterans of 75 and over, of whom there are 63.461. The pensions oommittee which supported tbe bill, states tbat were tbe roll to remain station ary the pension payments would be in creased $15,489,468 a year. But Speaker Cannon points out tbat the records of tbe pension bureau show that tbe old soldiers are dying at tbe average rate of 100 a day, or 36,500 a year, so tbat whatever the initial increase death would immediately begin to reduce it rapidly. 1'nlnrrh f'niuiot He fured with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach the seat ol tbe disease, ua tarrh is a blood or constitutional diseaso, and in order to cure it you must take in ternai remedies.
