Then, at last, the pretty little Pike county hamlet will be on the map. Village improvement associations in New York state do things. The one at Goshen got after the Erie and made the road give the station a coat of paint it unquestionably needed. If the Peerless Pleader runs for Senator in Nebraska, that $G,000 buzz wagon which can skim the coun ties at G5 miles an hour and then some may prove a business proposi tion and not a plaything. Mr. BRYAN'S butting into Ohio politics, particularly his slurs and sneers at the second HARMON can didacy, shows more clearly than ever that the Nebraskan is an "I can't and you shan't" Democrat. DON'T PUT UP LONGWORTH. Gov. JUDSON HARMON, renomi nated by the Ohio Democrats, Is a popular man and has, in the opinion ' of some -Republicans and' many in dependent voters, made a capable executive. He has abolished need less commissions and in so doing has materially cut state expenses. He was elected by 27,000 the same day that Mr. TAFT carried Ohio by CO, 000, and he is stronger today In every one of the 88 countries than he was then. The Republicans must find a strong man to beat him or Gov. HARMON, two years from now, will stand a mighty good chance of heading the 1912 ticket of the Dem ocrats. Senator BURTON, who Is strong In the northern or Lake Erie tier of counties, or some other progressive Buckeye Republican should be forc ed to take the nomination. If it were not for his violent advocacy of the PAYNE-ALDRICH tariff, Congressman RALPH D COLE of the Eighth district, who has just failed of a renomination because of his pronounced CANNON proclivities, could be utilized, and his decided personal popularity west of Co lumbus would be a valuable asset to nis campaign; but COLE, for the cqurse ho has taken, is Impossible. BURTON, the vigorous worker, for rivers and harbors, Is the likeliest nominee, and NICK LONGWORTH Is not. The son-in-law-of-the-Colonel argument runs well in print, and Ohio would welcome the father-in-law of the candidate to the Buckeye stump with characteristic western vociferation, it is true. But the man who sends JUDSON HARMON from Columbus back to Cincinnati and his railroad presidency must bo heavier timber than NICK LONGWORTH. That old wheelhorse of the party, the New York Tribune, whose staff correspondent has sounded independ ent sentiment in the state of TAFT and FORAKER and HARMON and LONGWORTH, urges the -Ohio Re publicans to cut NICK out of their calculations. Some man the state as well as the country can take ser iously would stand some show to beat HARMON and thereby, wipe off the map the most dangerous presi dpruial possibility the Democrats can produce, but It Is nothing more nor less than arrant Imbecility to suppose that little NICK LONG WORTH can bo elected governor of Ohio against the brainiest and most active Democrat tho Middle West just now contains. Anyhow, 'twill be some relief to Drother DALLINGER to hear ho is expected to do something toward putting out Carbondale'e five-year fire. One of the most desirable citizens we know anything about is a sub stantial business man of Honesdale who, in answer to the suggestive question "When do you buy a drink?" blandly made answer "Whenever I'm dry" and then moved away from hl3 expectant compan ions. "Man can never live up to his good reputation or down to his bad name," says the talented TRACY SWEET in the Scranton Tribune- Republican. By which, we presume, this journalistic gentleman from over tiie mountains realize no man is quite so good as his friends con tend or so 'bad as his enemies be lieve. However, ft must be conceded that even If the people did elect their own postmasters, they couldn't pick out a better looking bunch than Pennsylvania's got. McKeesport Times. Handsome is that handsomely de livers the goods, and it is a fact that Pennsylvania postofflces the past year showed a healthy growth in business, whether or not their presiding geniuses were physically prepossessing men. In Doylestown, the home of Sen ator GRIM, the school board sat on the applications of 40 candidates for teaching jobs. "The experience of the candidates," says the clever In telligencer, one of the crispest little dailies in the state, "ranged from no years to 44 of 'cm." Now, how old was Miss , who confessed she'd been a school ma'am 44 years? Did the census man get her right? "Don't you boys and girls be knockers" was the advice given the graduating class at Sellnsgrove High school by the reverend gentleman who baccalaureated them in Trinity Lutheran church. "Anybody", he said, "can be a fault finder, but only intelligent folks, mark you, can be builders." More such addresses to graduates are needed, in the schools of Pennsylvania and in the schools of" every other state under the flag. As the result of a Bradford coun ty rural free delivery driver's dras; tic action, that county is to have better roads In a Jiffy. According to Wlliamsport dispatches Charles E. Potter, a man not afraid to make himself disliked in official quarters, has caused the arrest of six town ship road supervisors on the charge of wilfully violating the law re quiring the removal of loose stones from the highways. Whether or not there will be any convictions as the outcome of the Potter complaints doth not yet appear, but the mall driver says he will be on hand to prosecute them if prosecution is needed to produce results. And he adds that he deems It better for a local complainant to take this course than for automobile folks using tho roads of Bradford county to make them. He says there should be less spite toward a rural deMveryman in the part of road complainant than there would be toward the gasoline pilgrims, none too popular in Brad ford or in any other county. Teachers from a majority of Penn sylvania counties have formed at Harrisburg the Teachers' League of Pennsylvania, the object of the or ganization being to "uplift and dig nify the teachers' profession, to in crease eiHciency, to secure perman ency of positions and the right to a sabbatical year, to make possible better salaries, and to educate public opinion to tho end that a retire ment fund for teachers be granted by tho state." This Is a step in tho right direc tion; a stop, wo add, that the state's teachers should have had tho spunk to take some time ago. All country teachers, and too many city teach ers, are slimly paid. Tho compe tent schoolteacher has to exercise more gray mattor than the incum bent of many a public borth paying $3,000 a year, and In tho average city the salary of tho ablest teacher too often Is less than that of the cop on tho beat. This ought not so to be. Tho intellectual laborer is particularly worthy of his hire, and wo hopo tho teachers' organization, which is not meant to bo a teachers' trust, will get tho wages of the men and women that "teach tho young Idea how to shoot" materially in creased before it takes up any other of the causes indicated by its constitution. The Keystone Press A boy must come early in his life to appreciate that living means work and that work means responsibility. Success In nny notable degree is ac companied by gray hairs; work that Is worth anything Is paid for in hu man lives; lives thot are worth any thing are expended in such work.- Tltusvllle Record. H has recently been a short wny to notoriety to offer ex-President Roosevelt a supendous salary for some job. We thought last week of sending the Colonel a wireless mes sage in mid-ocean offering him a reg ular salary of ?500,000 a year to write special articles for the Agita tor, not to exceed a column a week and confining his work entirely to this paper. On reflection we con cluded to wait and see just what Mr. Roosevelt's attitude Is going to be on the Taft administration. And you can see Just how much we ore saving weekly by not having him on our editorial staff. Wellsboro Agitator. But the ex-president should not forget that the greeting accorded him is as non-partisan as it is spontane ous, and that it Is no evidence that the people desire him again for pres ident. Much as he is respected and admired, the Republican sentiment of the Republican citizens of this Republican country Is undeniably opposed to more than two terms for any president, and no ex-presltlent Is wise who fails to profit by the hu miliating experience of the Great Commander. Connellsvllle Courier. The west is growing tame. Com pare the present legal controversy In Oklahoma over the location of the state capital with the stirring news we used to get about fights over county seats! Then it was all guns and midnight forays and court-houses hauled over the line on rollers; but now we hear only of injunctions and demurrers and writs of prohibition. How can the west expect the east to 'ake interest in a contest in which the lawyer has displaced the cowboy? At Wash ington, we note, the senate is voting to increase the cost of the federal public building in the capital of Ok lahoma wherever it may prove to be from J250.000 to $400,000. Thus is it sought by the jingle of the guinea to heal the hurt that the west's former honor feels. Allen town Call.

C, received a report from its vigilance committee which has been watch ing the spread of prohibition. This stated that the prohibition movement seems to have reached its climax and may now be expected to recede. Judging from the number of districts in prohibition states that have turn ed back to license. The report added: "The whole vegetable world is In a conspiracy against the prohibition ist. The bees become intoxicated with the distillation of the honey suckle; the wasps grow dizzy in the drowsy clover patch and even the ants wabble In their walk after they nave reasted upon tho overripe fruit fallen from the tree, which has start ed a natural fermentation." "One cannot study the drink ques tion without being puzzled by its paradoxes. It is an unquestioned fact that the neonle of tho TTnitPri States are steadily becoming more temperate, and yet the consumption of alcohol increases Just as stpatlllv as the growth of temperance. Not oniy is tne volume of the sale of al coholic beverages becoming larger, but the per capita consumption is increasing. "What does this mean? Does it not Indicate that while such bever ages, are comlnc into more rnmtnnn use the people are learning to use them more Intelligently? The old idea that total abstinence is the only road to safety Is being replaced by the new idea of moderation, both in eating and in drinking, by that of seit-controi.-J-New York Hotel Ga zette. Tho .Science in Farming. The farmers of Pennsylvania are showiug their faith in agricultural education by sending f-everal hun dred of their sons to the school of agriculture in the Pennsylvania State college. Tho growth or this school In this stato institution has been remarkable. The criticism made of some state agricultural schools that they train boys wholly away from tho farm will not apply to Pennsylvania. One hundred and seventy of the four hundred and seventy-nine students enrolled in tho school of agriculture last year took courses that fit only for rural life, while a considerable percentage of the remaining number, who aro tak ing tho four years' collego courses, expect to engage In some depart ment of practical farming. The two years' courso in agricul ture attracts young men who have not been able to prepare for a four years' course, nnd it fits men for practical work and not for profes sional life. A booklet has been pre pared for free distribution that de scribes tho work offered In this course, and it presents some fine il lustrations that are descriptive of tho work in tho school of agricul ture. Students are shown ongnged in livestock Judging, horticultural work and other practicum. An ox- colient picturo of the students on- gaged In military drill Is shown on tho last cover page. This attractive booklet may be secured without chargo by sending a postal card request addressed to school of agriculture and experi ment station, Stato collego, Centre county, Pa. Every young man who wants to know tho science of agri culture nnd its useful application, and who has not had the advantage of school preparation for a four years' collego course, Bhould tako advantage of this two years' courso in tho Pennsylvania State college. WANT EVERYBODY TO HELLO. Bell Telephone People Making Thorough Ciuivnss of Honesdale. The Bell Telephone company has began a very active canvass In Honesdale, With thp intention of in creasing their subscribers COO or 700 stations on the Honesdale ex change. Two years ago the hones dale exchange was serving 250 ta tlons. An Increase of business the past two years shows a gain of 200 stations, or a total of 450 stations nt present. When the new development Is made, everyone who can afford or will have any use for a telephone will be Bell-telephoned. Six salesmen have arrived from Scranton and have been assigned to districts. They expect to complete this new ennvass In a very few days. A carload of material, cables and wires is hero and largo gangs of con struction men nre arriving. The plan Is to extablish a trial telephone in anyone's residence or place of business for six months without charge. At the expiration of six months, any person not satis- fled with the services or not wishing to continue the telephone, may have It removed. One great advantage to Honesdale subscribers is the large rural de velopment which tho Bell Telephono company Is serving at present. Near ly every little town or hamlet with in 12 miles is using the Bell tele- phone, nnd the beauty of this Is that they are connected on tho Honesdale exchange and are not charged a toll to talk to Honesdale. The same of fer applies to Honesdale subscribers talking to the rural districts free of charge. Court .Says Girl Mny bo Spanked The rod as a corrective agent was still held legal as well as efficient by a Greene county jury Thursday, even though the recipient of punishment is 19 years old, pretty and a society belle. The jury which heard the case against Richard Ewart, a liv eryman of the county seat, who was charged by his 19-year-old daugh- er, Bess, with assault and battery, decided the prisoner was wholly within his rights and found him not guilty. According to the testimony of Miss Bess Ewart, the girl who was whipped, the trouble occurred on April 27, after she had attended a skating rink with a party of young people. She testified her father spanked her and whipped her with a cow-hide whip. Immediately at ter the whipping the girl left home, and has since been residing with an uncle. Somerset Herald. E. G.

"Bar the One who iUpA nn ni. vary and Abrahnm Lincoln, thero nas oeen moro ink and paper given to Mr. Roosevelt than to any other man," declared Alfred Henrv T.pwia In his editorial announcement of his lorthcoming "Story of Roosevelt." The opening chapters of this great serial appear In the June issue of Human Life, and this masterly story is beyond all doubt the grtfatest and most intimate, accurate, and fas cinating history yet written of America's "Man of Destiny." Mr. Lewis's twenty years' personal ac quaintance with Mr, Roosevelt has given hlra a fund of anecdotal re miniscences nnd an intimate knowl edge of his subject possessed by no other writer. Searching the political horizon for 1912 presidential possibilities, not a few telescopes In the west are now being levelled at the rising star of Gov. Harmon of Ohio, nnd James B. Morrow's story In this Issue of his rise from obscurity to fame shows him to be one of the most Interest ing nnd impressive personalities in the country today. There ore a number of articles of special interest to feminine readers, Including "Saint Sophie of New Or leans," "Actresses of Today," "A Woman's Commercial Club," and sketches of the clever women who figure la the "Celebrity" columns. Catarrhal Asthma and Hay Fever Tens of thousands of sufferers from hay fever and catarrhal asthma find great comfort and quick relief by breathing Hyomei. Of course where asthma is not caused by a catarrhal condition, but by nervous contraction of the bron chial tubes, Hyomei is not recom mended. But In a case of asthma where there Is a discharge of mucous, breathing Hyomei gives most won derful relief by soothing the irritated and highly Inflamed membrane. Mr. W. A. White, R. F. D. No. 1, Evansport, writes: "I have been bothered with asthma for over five years but could not get any relief un til I tried Hyomei. I have spent lots of money on remedies for asthma, and If I could not get anoth er bottle I would not be without Hy omei for $50. I recommend It." A complete Hyomei outfit, includ ing hard rubber pocket Inhaler, costs $1.00 with instructions for use In hay fever and asthma. Extra bottles of Hyomei cost 50 cents at druggists everywhere and at G.
