NEW MILLINERY AT REBERSBURO.
Mrs. Louisa Harter has opened a
millinery shop in Reber9bnrg and will
receive the latter part of this week an
elegant stock of new millinery goods,
comprising the latest styles iu hats,
bonnets, ribbons, laces, feathers, &c.
She desires the ladies of Rebersburg
and vicinity to call aiul inspect her
STOCK, ller motto is in - besi g.i.i-Js at
the lowest prices. Look out for her
advertisement next week.
—Musser & Alexander, our popular
marblemen, received the elegant and
large granite monument intended for the
grave of the late George Shafer,of Zion,
ou Tuesday morning, and had the same
taken to the Zion cemetery to mark
the last resting place of the deceased.
This monument is one of the finest that
lias yet been put out from the Millheim
marble works and will be the handsom
est piece of work on that graveyard.
What is of special interest to parties in
need of tombstones are the low prices
they charge for their work, a considera
tion that is yery important to the aver
age purchaser.
—The register of the National Hotel
at this place, 11. G. Shafer proprietor,
shows up remarkably well for the past
week, a large number of travelers hav
ing stoptied there, which would Indi
cate that Shafer and his landlady under
stand full well to treat their guests in
the best style. Among those who put
up at the National last Saturday were
Miss Fairy Shafer, of Reading, and
Miss Ida Kreamer, of Rebersburg, ac
companied by Messrs. tt. 1. Frantz and
J. A. Shreckengost.of Tylersville. all of
whom arrived in town mounted on
horseback and after partaking of sup
per returned home under the soft beams
of a full moon.
—The chronic grumblers seem to be
a necessary adjunct in most communi
ties. And Millheim, along with other
towns, is not behind in that line. Every
progressive step, if ever so necessary,
is opposed by these disagreeable fel
lows, simply because their local taxes
may be a few cents higher. At present
there is considerable squealing about,
the improvement of the town hall, and
still, when completed, these very grum
blers, in their inmost hearts, are glad
themselves that the local authorities
had the sand to go ahead with a work
that will do the town credit. Filling a
borough ofliee is pretty much like run
ning a newspaper—yon can't please
them all and so you must do things the
best you know how.
—The best winter boots for small and
large, old and young, at Kauffman's

seven carloads, or 3000 bushels.

—Uniting applebutter, making soap
and cleaning house are the chief aims
of the housewife's life at this season of
the year, and tlie docile benedict stands
in awe of the big black "kilties," tlie
large rolls of carpets and manifold

awaits orders from headquaiters.
—An inquisition board of three, an
attorney, a physician and a reliable cit
i*en, were summoned to Squire Reif
suyder's office on Tuesday, to decide
upon tlie sanity or insanity of John

Mr. Cummings insane and will so re
port to the next quarter session court. t
AN OLD NUKSE'S THIRTY YEARS
.
EXPERIENCE.—An old nuise of thirty
yeais experience says that she lias nev
er used a wire that has had such a
pleasing effect on her patients as that
made by Mr. Alfred Speer, of Passaic,
N. J. It is a pure article and people
have confidence in it. Ask any noted
physician. For sale by druggists.
—Mr. Charles Stover, of Aarousburg,
contemplates removing from there, to
take charge of a grocery store at
Hughesville, Lycoming Co. We are
not able to say when tlie change will
occur but presume some time this fall.
Mr. A. O. Deiningor, the gentleman's
father-in-law, now engaged in the cigar
making business at Clarkstown, I'a.,
also intends moving to llughesviile,
with a view of carrying on the cigar
business more extensively there.
—Dyspepsia makes tlie lives of many
people miserable, and often leads to
self-destmctton. We know of no rem
edy for dyspepsia more successful than
Hood's Sarsaparilla. It acts gently,
get surely and efficiently, tones the
stomach and other organs, removes the
faint feeling, creates a good appetite,
cures headache, and refreshes tlie bur
dened mind. Give Hood's Sarsaparilla
a fair trial. It will do you good.
WOODWARD'S SENSATION. The
good jieople of Woodward, tlie little vil
lage at the eastern end of the valley,are
at present in a feverish state of excite
ment. A good horse, of a sorrel color,
has been found dead in the thick woods
in the Narrows,about two miles east of
Woodward. The horse lias evidently
l>een shot, but nobody knows whose
horse it might be nor bad anybody seen
the animal taken there. All kinds of
wild rumors are afloat In the neighbor
hood and many even sniff foul play. As
the matter is wrapped in mystery we
are unable to satisfy our readers with
particulars this week.
CRITICAL SITUATION Watchmaker
P. 11. Musser had an unpleasant en
counter the other day, while returning
home from a hunt in the woods. To
make a short cut he crossed tlie fields
of .Tared Snook's farm, west of town,
when two large dogs came running af
ter and made for him in dead earnest.
Philip felt that it was a dangerous en
counter and raised Ins gun in sell de
fence. Tlie dogs understood and stop
ped, but as soon as Philip rested arms
tliey renewed their attack. He had to
keep the brutes under cover of his gun
barrel and back out of the field until he
reached the fence which he cleajed and
thus put an unsurmouutable barrier be
tween himself and the bloodthirsty
hounds. Had be been on the highway
there would be two canines less in the
world, but under the circumstances be
was willing to let the dogs alone as long
as they left him alone.
—The Lutheran Svuod of Central
Pennsylvania which was in session at
Miffiinburg on Tuesday, Sept. 27th,was
opened by liev.P. Graif,ot Mifflintown.
The proceedings of this ministerial
body are reported as having been of the
most interjsting character, in the mat
ter of beneficiary education it was stat
ed that nine young men are at present
receiving aid from tlie synod to pursue
their studies for the ministry. SI3OO

tlie same purpose. Tlie reports on be
