weiler'a boys, on North street, aged
about t years, had three of his fin
gers chopped off by one of Abe. King's
boys on Wednesday of last week. The
little fellows were playing with an axe
when the accident happened. Not a
very healthy plaything for children.
Some of our "yming qcntlemcn" a
mused themselves the other night by
using Adolph Miller's cigar sign as a
target for their missiles and succeeded
in completely demolishing the same.
Of course they were found out and the
damage had to be made good. Boys,

that you may not slip off as easy.

an church of Rebersburgon last Thurs
day evening was listened to by a large
audieuce. On account of the very in
clement weather but* very few from
this place ventured to go. But they
returned highly pleased with the lec
ture and declare it the most thrilling
and poweriul discourse thoy ever listen
ed to. In fact the Lutherans of this
place are completely inflamed with the
desire to have Rov. Steck lecture at
this place. We are truly anxious our
selves to have the plan carried out at
an early day, and are of the opinion
that it can be made a success iu every
way.
ANOTHER SUDDEN DEATH. The
sudden death of Mr. Henry Stover, the
only soo of Mr. Andrew Stover, of Co
burn, which occurred on Thursday
night of last week, was a complete sur
prise to the many friends of most
estimable young man. Deceased was
apparently in good health until a few
days before his death and was engaged
the greater part of the winter in haul
ing material on the ground foi a new
house at Coburn. He was a man of
untarnished character and industrial
habits and enjoyed the confidence and
respect of the whole community. At
the time of his death, which was due to
pneumonia, he was one of Penn town
ship's school directors. The fact that
he was but in the prime of manhood
makes the shock all the heavier to his
aggrieved parents, who have the sincere
sympathy of all their friends and ac
quaintances. The remains were inter
red in the cemetery of the Reformed
church at Aaronsburg, of which he
was a devout member, on Sunday fore
noon, when a very large concourse of
friends attended the funeral.
—Pursuant to a call of a meeting
the citizens of Millheim convened in
the office of Adolpli Miller, on Satur

GOOD ADVlCE.— Aaronstiurg is rath
er ati old town. Men who have lived
here for seventy and moie years will
tell you to day that it never has been a
yery progressive town. In point of
morals, in decency and general good
behavior, none of our sister towns can
face us and sty, we are equal with you.
In this connection we wish to say a
few words to the boys, or rather the
young men of our town, hoping they
will read and profit by what we sty.
You boys of to-day, have you ever
thought to inquire of yourselves who
will succeed our old fathers of 70.a few
years hence. Have you ever considered
how soon you will be required to take
up the burden of life, and assume the
- cares nrrtf responwieaut tr* that, accord
ing to nature's law, .will be handed
down to you by your fathers. Yery
soon some of you will be called upon to
become the merchants, mechanics, ed
itors,lawyers and doctors of our towns,
and the sooner you stop, think and re
alize this, the better it will be lor you.
Life is not very satisfactory at the best,
but remember, boys, your lives will be
very much what you make them. To
engage in evil doing, such as swearing,
drinking whiskey and making indicent
remarks about your fellow-man, and
especially of the young girls, we wish
to assure you will uever bring you good
results. Honest, intelligent boys, who
have no bad habits, are a'ways in de
mand,aud these are they who make the
honored citizens of the world, and
within you is the power to make of
yourselves great and good men. How
often do we hear young men say that it
don't pay to engage in bad habits, such
as drinking whiskey and swearing, and
should you so err in your young life
you will certainly ever after regret it,
and in your later and better life you
will always bate to recall the acts of
your younger days.
It is said that "a little nonsense now
and then is relished by the best of
men." Yes,fun,real fun,ls an excellent
thing in its place,and you are expected
to have lots of it while you are boys,
but you must guard against mistaking
wrong doing and bad habits for fun.
There are many sins of depraved youth
committed on the sly and the world be
ing none the wiser. But here you de
ceive yourselves, boys. "Be sure your
sins will find you out." What you
start out to accomplish that will you
surely do, and it is with you to become
a man in the true sense of the word,
one who posesses steady and industri
ous habits, together with sobriety and
economy, or you may become a shift
less, worthless tramp or whiskey soak,
and boys, sooner or later yon will be
called upon to decide whether you will
be something or noihing. * * *
—Have mercy on your wife ! No
smell, no moisture, no rags, no bums,
no scalds. Buy her an "Odorless"
Kettle.

It becomes our painful duty this
week to chronicle the sad demise of our
esteemed and much-loved citizen,
Henry Stftver, who died Thursday eve
ning, Feb. 11th, and was buried on
Sunday morning. He was 29 years old,
a consistent member of the Reformed
church, and an exemplary young man.
Miss Lydia Musser, of Haines town
ship, while on a visit to Mr. Em'l Ker
stetter's last week, contracted a cold
and died in a few days thereafter at
the advanced ags of 60 years. She was
taken back to Haines to.vnship and in
terred on Friday.
The manner in which the primary
election is manipulated in our town
ship is not yery satisfactory to the ma
jority of the citizens. All persons at
tending the caucuses have a perfect
right to vote for the nominees, and this
thing of one or two persons "slating" a
ticket, will very likely be done away
with hereafter. Why not hold the pri
maries in some school house where all
interested can get in and haye a say.

Rebersburg will have no convention

Something new in our valley —a
printing press with Clark Gramley as
operator. He is turning out cards,
hand bills, etc.
We are told that the teacher of
Gramley's school has several times in
formed the directors of the district
that the coal btove in the school room
is out of repairs, but it seems of no
avail. Would it not be well for the
school board to look after the matter,
as it endangers the health and lives of
the scholars. The stoye fills with gas
below which suddenly escapes, with a
dull report,from all crevices and open
ings and fills the house with smoke and
unhealthy odors. This state of affairs

hearty supper aud in a few miuutes thereafter

of loving hearts were suddenly arrested when
he was called to his reward at the age of 2u

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
Has preserved the lives of great numbers
of persons, by arresting the development of
Laryngitis, Bronchitis, Pneumonia,
and Pulmonary Consumption, and by
the cure of those dangerous maladies. It
should be kept ready for use In every
family where there are children, as it is a
medicine far superior to all others in the
treatment of Croup, the alleviation of
Whooping Cough, and the cure of Colds
and Influenza, ailments peculiarly Inci
dental to childhood and youth. Prompti
tude in dealing with all diseases of this
class is of the utmost importance. The
loss of a single day may, in many cases,
entail fatal consequences. Do not waste
precious time in experimenting with
medicines of doubtful efficacy, while the
malady is constantly gaining a deeper
bold, but take at once the speediest and
most 'pertain to cure, J
