A HOP.— Lovers of terpsichorean
exercise had quite a pleasant hop at
the Aiandale House, on Thursday
night of last week. The "youth and
beauty" of this place were there, and
the affair was kept up to the "wee sma
hours." Ye local— who never ven
turer In th "giddy maze"—was not
there, but has learned from those who
were, that it was a splendid 'occasion,'
and all enjoyed themselves hugely.
REAL ESTATE SALES.— William M.
Lloyd purchased, last week, the corn
er of the Blymyer property, on Pitt
street, 25 feet front and Co feet deep,

four lots of O. E. Shannon, on the

ALL IN THE FAMILY.-— The Com
missioner of Internal Revenue has de
cided that deeds given for the purpose
of transferring the legal title to land
from husband to wife, through the in
tervention of a trustee, with merely a
nominal consideration, require only a
five cent stamp each, as agreements or
contracts not specially designated in
stamp schedule "B." They do not re
quire a conveyance stamp, as really it
is not sold.
ANOTHER RAILROAD.— The citi
zen* of Hollidaysburg held a meeting
last week in the interest of a railroad
from that plate to Martinsburg. Ten
thousand dollars were subscribed,
which, say the Hollidaysburg papers,
insures the success of the road. It is
proposed at some future day to ex
tend the road through Morrison's
Cove to Hopewell.
OFFICERS ELECTED.— At a recent
meeting of the stockholders of the
Stump Insland* Oil Company, the fol
lowing officers were elected for the er -
suingyear: President, William Hart
ley ; Secretary and Treasurer, S. S.
Metzger; Directors, Dr. G. W.Ander
son, O. E. Shannon J. R. Jordan, J.
M. Shoemaker, G. D. Shuck and Wil
liam .'artley. The affairs of this
company are in a flourishing condi
tion. Two wells are now yielding to
gether about one hundred and twenty
five barrels of oil daily. Two more
wells are now being put down by the
company.
NEGLECTED COUGHS AND COLDS.—
Few are aware of the importance of
checking a Cough or "Common Cold,''
in its first stage; that which in the be
ginning would yield to a mild remedy,
if neglected, soon preys upon the
Lungs. 'Brown's Bronchial Troches,'
or Cough Lozenges, afford instant re
lief. Owing to the good reputation
aud popularity of the Troches, *many
worthless and cheap imitations are of
fered, which are good for nothing. Be
sure to obtain the true "Brown's Bron
chial Troches." Sold everywhere.
HUGE HOGS.— Bedford County A
head!— St. Clair Caps the Climax of
Portly Porkers .'—Bedford county may
be slow on some things but shecertain
ly is some on hogs. If we remember
correctly, St. Clair furnished us last
year with the biggest hog item, but
now she sends greeting with the larg
est porker that hits been slaughtered
in this county for many years. A few
days ago Mr. Joseph Moore, of that
township, killed agrunter that pulled
on a Fair bank's to the tune of 715$
pounds ! Trot out your squeeler to
beat that fellow !
Mr. Samuel Beckly, of the same
township, killed one that weighed -500
pounds. St, Clair can go up head. —
She -tands number one on the hog
question.
BONE FELON.—Of all painful things
can there be any so excruciatingly
paiuful as a bone fellon ? We know oi
none that flesh is heir to, and, as this
uialadv is quite frequent and the sub
ject of much earnest consideration, we
give the last recipe for its cure, which is
given by that high authority, the Lon
don Lancet: "As soon as the pulsation
which indicates the disease is felt put
directly over the spot a fly blister a
bout the size of your thumb nail, aud
let it remain for six hours, at the ex
piration of which time, directly under
the surface of the blister, may be seen
the felon, which cm be instantly ta
ken out with the point of a needle or a
lancet."

The microseope shows the color ot
the hair dire to a deposition of pig
ment in its substance. When the hair
glands fceoorae enfeebletl, this pigment
fail-. One after another the hairs be
come white, or fall out, producing
baldness. Baldness is easy to prevent
but hard to cure. Ayer's Hair Vigor
stops it; even restores the hair some
times; always restores its color. Im
mediate renovation is at once visible:
softness, freshness and the gloss of
youth'. This great ornament should
be preserved since it can lie by Ayer's
Hair Vigor, which is beautifully ciean
and free from anything injurious to
the hair. Tribune, Springville, N. Y.
lIrTTEK.—The amount of butter
made in Somerset county, last year
says the Democrat, will reach 20,000
kegs. One-fourth bas already been
sold at an average of 30 cents per
pound—or S2O per keg; one-fourth &£
an average of 30 cents, or sl7 per keg;
one-fourth unsold will average IS cents,
or $lO per keg ; one-fourth unsold will
average 15 cents, or $9 per keg. This
will give a common average of sl4 per
keg on 20,000 kegs—s2Bo,ooo which is
the total amouut of revenue for Somer
set county for her great staple of but
ter. With proper railroad facilities to
transport fre-h be tter to market, it is
estimated that $23 a keg could have
been realized, which would make a
difference of $130.00 on the total pro
due'. This fact i- strongly urged by
those who are laboring so earnestly to
place that county in railroad commu
nication with the eastern cities.
RAILKAOD ENTERPRISE.—Our Som
erset neighbors are laboring for rail
road facilities to their county seat with
a zeal that is truly commendable. Al
ready subscriptions to the amount of
of $13,500 have been raised, and the
work still goes bravely on. This sub
scription is made up ofß7o shares at SSO
each, and by analizing it we find the
following facts: 14 persons subscribed
Si,ooo each; 15,5500; 13, $300; 17, $250;
4, $200; 14, $150; 45 SIOO, and 129, SSO
each, making 251 subscribers in all. It
will be seen that more than one half of
the subscribers are j>ersons who gave
but $?0 each, which was perhaps far
more in proportion to their wealth
than those who subscribed their hun
dreds. We refer to this merely to
show that the people of that sec
tion feel the necessity of a railroad
communication and are determin
ed to have it if a united effort and lib
eral subscriptions can accomplish it.
And we have no doubt that they will
suceed in having the boon for which
they are so earnestly laboring.
PITTSBCRG FEMALE COLLEGE. —
The present term of this sterling insti
tution will close with the Essay eon
test by members of the senior class, on
the evening of the 11th of March.—
Preparations are in progress for the
closing exercises which promise to be
unusually attractive and interesting.
We are pleased to learn that the
term now closing is more prosperous
than the corresponding one of last
year, and that the prospects for the
spring term, which will commence
Tuesday, March 22, are unusually flat
tering. Applications for the admis
sion of boarders and day pupils are re
ceived almost daily. Though a month
will elapse before the opening of the
spring term, but very few vacancies
are left. We trust our readers will un
derstand that we mean what we say,
when westatethat persons desiring ad
mission to the boarding department
must make early application. The eon
tir-n ed pros fieri t y of t he Col lege, while so
many schools are declining, is the best
comment on its excellent management.
It richly deserves its large and widely
extended patronage.

Messrs. D. Loth rap & Co., of Bos

volumes, entitled (Teachers' Gift
Books) of 18 mo. size, neatly done up
in paper covers, and containing about
60 pages each. The stories are sensi
ble, high toned, full of life and zest,
and teach noble lessons, such as little
people will be likely to learn, remem
ber and profit. They are fitting pres

books are cheap as well as good.—
They can be obtained of the publishers
by mail, postpaid, for 40 cents a pack

Messrs. Lothrop & Co., have issued,
and are still sending out, many of the

especially excellent, A leading relig
ious journal says "their appearance
marks a new era in the history of ju
venile literature." Their "Bright
Day Series," "Crown Jewel Library,"
"Rainy Day Stories," and many other
volumes, are amoDg the best of their
class. They are to send out a fresh list
the coming season, of rare merit,
for whose coming our readers will do
well to keep on the lookout.
