—That good, kind soul, Mrs. Jacob
Keen brought us a monstrous big
lien's egg last week. Wo don't care
to give the exact size and weight in
figures, lest our friends would accuse
us of stretching—as if an editor could
even stretch an egg—but it is fully as
large as a "gooth egg" anyhow,
—Ayer's Hair Vigor restores the

the hair, prevents it from falling oIT,
and greatly increases its beauty. It
lias a delicate and lasting perfume, its

toilet it is unequalled.

—ln reading the Journal this week
don't skip the cauls of A. Simon's
Sons, Grocers, and Simon Brothers,
Clothiers, Lock Haven. The brothers
and sons, or sons and brothel's— it
reads well either way—are active, en
terprising business men, keep the best
the market affords and sell at bottom
prices. No better places anywhere to
get full value tor your money ll and
don't you forget it. ,}
—lt is admitted on all hands that a
visit to Lock Haven would be very un
satisfactory, and incomplete without
going to Whitcomb's Mammoth Cloth
ing Store. Mr. Whitcomo keeps every
thing that goes into the make lip of
men's clothing. Ilis stock is as com
plete as "his prices are low, and his
many customers always leave with
glad hearts and cheerful countenances,
knowing that they have received as
much for their cash as any man can
possibly give.
—The winter term of our public
schools in the borough and township
will commence next Monday, October
24th. Parents take a note of this and
have your children fully equipped and
ready to start to school that day. It is
of no small importance that you should
enable and urge them to put in their
full time. Every schoolhour lost, de
creases the knowledge they ought to
acquire as childien and which they
will sadly miss in their older days. A
word to the wise is sufficient.
—One day last week two Aarons
burg boys, the one a son of Mr. Sum
mers, the other of Mr. Fred Limbert,
engaged in a hand to hand fight iD
that place, and in a tit of uncontrolla
ble passion young Summers made use
of a knife and stabbed Limbert in the
thigh, severing one of the arteries.
The boys, we are told, had an old spite
at each other that finally resulted in
this passionate fight.
—The corner-stone for the new St.
John's Lutheran Church at this place
was laid with religious services
and ceremonies on Sunday last. The
day was a fair one from about nine
o'clock until evening, and a great
many people had assembled to witness
the solemn rite. Unusually able and
instructive sermons werepreached on
Saturday and Sunday evenings, by Rev.
W. 11. Diven, of Saloona, and 011
Sunday morning by Rev. S. E. Furst,
of Bellefonte. The collection mounted
to about fifty dollars, which swells
the total contributions to date
to the clever sum of $34 )0. The peo
ple of Millheim as well as the visiting
ministers and other strangers present
were all well pleased and doubtless
much benefitted by the preaching and
exercises of the day.

No prep oration lias ever performed such
marvelous cures, or maintained so wide a repu
tation, as AVKH'SCHKITITY PECTORAL, which is re
cognized as the world's remedy for all diseases
,Vf w ? n, i lungs* Its long contained
seues of \\onderfui cures in all climates has
made .t universally known as a safe and relia
ble agent to employ. Against ordinary colds,
wicii are the forerunners of more serious dis
orders, it acts speedily and surely, always re
newing suffering, and often saving life. The
protection it affords, by its timely use in throat
and chest disorders, makes it an invaluable
remedy to be kept always on hand in every
home. No person can afford to be without it,
and those who have once used it never will
From their knowledge of its composition and
effects, physicians use the CHEKKY PECTORAL
extensively in their practice, and clergymen
recommend it. It is absolutely certain in its
x-cmedial effects, and will always cure where
cures are possible.

It will pay the head of every house
hold to devote considerable attention
to his children. It will especially pay
to become interested in the school-life
of the children, and, as much as pos
sible, to know just what they are
studying and how they are doing it.
It is too common a custom for parents
to trust all to the teacher, on the prin
ciple that it is their business to edu
cate the young people. But even if
the teacher's duty is well performed,
the supervision of the father will stim
ulate the child to renewed exertions,
and largely aid tlio teacher. The child
whose father goes over his lessons
with him is never at the foot of his
class.— Philipsbury Journal.
A TIMELY TOPIC.—The most suc
cessful men in business are thoso who
advertise freely. Our greatest dry
good and grocery merchants spend
hundreds of dollars yearly in this way,
and they all say that it pays. The mer
chants who do little or no business are
the ones who do not use printer's ink.
Look around and observe the truth
fulness of what we say. There is a
nother thing true of the man who ad
vertises: his stock is the largest, best
and cheapest, for the reason that it is
converted into money every few days.

COUNTY.
A Furnace Hand Strikes Down
a Man and Death Results.
The Cbambersburg JlcraUl says: On
Monday night of last week Jacob
Swank, of Carrick, was on his way
home from a meeting and as lie pass
ed the furnace casting house, he was
hailed by John iieeter who was sitting
in the door. Heeler'called to him to
come over and tried to provoke a light,
but Swank said he had no desire to
wrangle, that lie was too old a man,
and passed on. lieeter called him a
second time and as Swank turned,
lieeter hurled a piece of cinder "at. him
which struck liini in the forehead,
felling him to the ground. The das
taid then ran and jumping on his un
conscious victim tramped him terribly.
The furnace keeper finally pulled him
off and tha poor fell ow was carried
home. lie laid in an unconscious
state until Friday J ast when he died.
Monday District Attorney Sueserott
and the coroner took the matter in
hand. Dr. Ramsey, assisted by Dr.
Jones, of Mercersburg, had the corpse
exhumed, and held a post mortem, at
which a large clot of blood in the front
part of the brain aad a fractured skull
were revealed. The murderer escaped
and has not been arrested. A reward
of $.lO i 3 offered for his arrest, by the
commissioners. It ought to be SSOO.
The following is an accurate descrip

aged nineteen, five feet six inches tall,
weight about 140 pounds, heavy set
with short neck, no beard, red faced
with thick lips, nose with depressed
bridge, fiat nostrils and turned up, ears
lay forward, heavy under jaw, hair
sandy and curly, low forehead, a scar
on upper part of nose, downcast look
and repulsive counten ancn. Fifty dol

A FOUL MUREER.
One of the very worst murders was
committed in Lancaster city on the
night of the sth inst. Mrs. Seymour
was down stair 3 about 11 o'clock and
was in the act of administering medi
cine to Mrs. ltobinson, a sick woman
in the house, when there was a knock
at the window. She knew it wa3 Ed
ward Sanders by the voice, a hard
case of a young mail about 25 year 3 of
ago. She refused him admission; bat
after he told her he had something
very particular t > tell her she opened
the door. 110 entered and immediate
ly assaulted her and ravished her. Af
ter a severe: struggle she escaped and
ran into the street and cried for help.
A neighbor woman who was up yet
let her in; but when she was on the
street Sanders followed her and knocked
her down. Mrs. Seymour "took con
vulsions and died before a doctor
could be called in. When the physi
cian came she was dead. Mrs. Kobin
son, the sick woman, was sent to the
Alms House and tfce three children to
the Home for Friendless Children.
Thus, in a few moments was a moth
er inurdored tind the family brokon up
attd scattered at the hour of midnight.
Any juryman who would refuse to
hang such a fellow ought to be hung
himself, While the woman was dying
Sanders stood by and taunted her,
