certainly a good locality for sweet po
tatoes. A friend brought us a lot the

—Tn journeying along life's pathway
questions sometimes present them
selves to us of very difficult solution.
So in passing onr North Street S. hool
flouse the othei day, the steeple, tower
belfry, or by whatever name that u
nique and ornamental appendage may
he designated, struck us as of most sin
gular architecture. We were utteily
at a loss how to classify the style, or
whether it admits of any arbitrary
classification at all. Really we ask the
board to help us out of the trouble.
—Hon. Morrio'tt Brasius and our
genial friend C. M. Bower, Esq., were
candidates before the recent session of
the Synod of the Reformed Church, at
Bellofonte, for Trustee of Franklin and
Marshall College. Mr. Hotter came
out first best, 44 %to 1." Hardly think
it was Cal's politics that raado him so
popular with the black coats, and we
must therefore ascribe his success to
his good looks and general worthiness.
Moreover we are willing to accept it as
an index of how it will fce between Mr.
Elliott and Mr. Brosius.
—Messrs. J. P. Everett'& Co., of the
large and popular Bee Hive Store,
Lock Haven, place . their regular fall
and winter advertisement in the
•JOURNAL this week, and we advise all
our leaders to read it carefully. This
well known firm Iras recently enlarged
its store very much, to accommodate
their great and growing business. They
have just opened the largest and best
stock of goods for fall and winter prob
ably ever brought to Lock Haven, and
they cordialK invite their old friends
and patrons of PennS and Brush Val
leys to visit, their store an<J examine
their goods. It affords them much
pleasure to serve their many custom
ers from Centre county.
WITH anything like a fair day
the Democratic meeting next Satur
day will be simply a tremendous af

presented himself at the table. The
family, who had been Watching his op

and at last his mother softly inquired:

face, which rapidly deepened into cardi
nal. Then he gasped: " I forgot all a
bout being married." Leaving the ta
ble aratd a roar of laughter, the young
man hurried out and walked hastily
home, where his young wife wa3 impa
tiently awaiting his coming.
