Tre ExmiBITION OF RELICS.—A
sense of surprise, of pleasure and rever-
ence came to one as he gazed at the por-
traits and relics collected and exhibited
in the North ward school house by Mrs.
George W. Jackson, Mrs. S. T. Shug-
ert, Mrs. John Kurtz, Mrs. Hamilton,
Miss Sarah Benner and other members
of the committee. Indeed the collec-
tion was a revelation to many, who.
seemingly think Bellefonte’s prominence
is all of the present. Arranged and
displayed as it was it compared favor-
ably with many of the most interesting
of like exhibits at the World's Fair.
American tapestries, in the form of
coverlets and quilts, beautified and sub.
dued in color by age, were draped over
the windows, doors and as a back
ground for the portraits of the many
distinguished men who have lifted
Bellefonte above the ordinary. Glass
cases containing valuable coing; jewelry,
several hundred years old; deeds and
letters signed by William Penn, George
‘Washington, Lord Howe and other
notables; laces and beautiful embroid-
eries worn by the belles of Dunlop, Har-
ris, Benner, McManus and Armor
families; dishes older than the oldest
inhabitant and silverware well worthy
of careful consideration both because of
its beauty and its historical show made
a collection as rare and valuable as
many housed in a museum.
But why write on? for only those
who saw the exhibition can have an
idea of its size and richness or the time
and thought the committee, and their
aids, gave to what has been pronounced
the most instructive and interesting
feature of the Centennial.
The following list includes only a few
of the most interesting portraits and
relics exhibited.

Last Sundey Children’s Day was ob
served by our Presbyterian neighbors:
Supt. Woods had charge of exercises
which consisted of recitations and exce:-
lent music. Rev. John C. McCracken de-
livered the address to children and was
highly commended for his clear logica;

Last Sunday banker Mingle, of Centre
Hall, handling the ribbons over a pair of
Jersey matches was in town in search of
the venerable Petter Hoffer, who had
failed to return home as was his wont on
Saturday evening. The old gentleman
had been detained by a sick horse and
was most comfortable at the hospitable
home of G. W. Keichline, but his friends
were very uneasy about him as he could
not be found by telephone, telegraph or
mail.
Last Sunday morning as Mary,
the 12 year old daughter of J. H. Calder;

near Penna, Furnace she was brutally
assaulted. Her cries were heard and oth-

brute had fled to the woods and 1s still at
large. A warrant was issued and placed in
the hands of proper officers for his arrest.

Mr. A. E. Schull, an old-timer in the
wool business, was this week driving
around in this section paying advanced
prices compared to what he did under
the McKinley tariff. Aaron is a hustler
in addition to his extensive trade in the
woolen business he is proprietor of the
South Williamsport Star. We hope his
people will support his paper with more
than usual liberality. Mr. Schull was on
the Centre Democrat staff in 1862 when it
went out of existence for the whole con”
cern from proprietor to the devil enlisted
for the war. Now after thirty-three
years spent in carrying the musket and
dealing out cloth by the yard and pound
we imagine ype setting will be slow bus-
iness ; but wish him success.

Deafness, Ringing Noises and Catarrh Cured by
Dr. Salm.
For along time I noticed that I became
gradually harder and harder of hearing.
Ringing noises came in the ear after a while,
and I became very much alarmed. So Iwent
to Dr. Salm and put myself under his care and
to-day I am Tread to state,and forthe bene-
fit of those who may suffer in a like manner
that I can hear once again as good as ever,an
those infernal noises have disappeared, al-
though I am nearly 60 years old. Dr. Salm
said all of it was caused by catarrh: MB

A Lady 69 Years Old Cured of Catarrh and
Deafness. +
Some years ago I contracted catarrh and it
went to my ears. Gradually I became worse
and my ears began to trouble me very much,
my strength began to give out, and I "became
weaker and weaker so that I was not able to
work. I took treatment from several of our
doctors in the county, but somehow they
couldn’t do me any good ; so I went to see Dr.
Salm. He promised to cure me, and I dare
say, he kept his word, for to-day I am again
stout and healthy as could be expected of any
one of my age, 6) years, and I find that I got
value received for the money paid to the doc-
tor. Mgrs. Jaco D. FINDLEY.

Thought His Time Had Come but was Cured by
Dr. Salm.
For some years I have been suflering very
much with various ailments and broke down
at last. I suffered most excrutiating pain from
head to foot all the time. My stomach troub-
led me a good deal, liver and kidneys as well
were out of order; in fact, I thought my time
had come. The doctors couldn’ do me any
good : patent medicines had no effect; so I
went at last to Dr. Salm, and after a course of
treatment, I am now again as hale and hearty
and strong as ever. F. L. CONFER.

Scerofulous Limb of 8 Years Standing Cured.
For the last 8 years I have had fearfully sore
limbs ; they would swell and break open and
run; giving me a world of trouble, and mak-
ing me unfit for my daily labor. I have had
four Doctors trying to cure me, but they
could'nt do it. At last I went to Dr. Salm, who
made a perfect and complete cure, and I feel
as if I could enjoy life once more.

Growth Removed from the LEye-Ball by Dr,

For 10 years my wife, Susanna, had some-
thing Shown over her eyes, making her al-
most blind, Dr. Salm performed an operation,
and made a perfect success, as she can now
again thread the finest needle, and read the
finest print, and her eyes do not give her the
least trouble. It was a fine piece of work.

Granulated Lids, Cured by Dr. Salm.
For tie last 4 years 1 have been troubled
very much with granulated eye lids; it partly
blinded me. Doctors here did me no good, it
also seemed to affect my general health. Dr.
£alm has cured me. I can again see splendid
ly, and feel better than ever.
Bessie THOMAS,
Indiana, Pa., Dec. 5th, 1894.
After Total Blindness Made to See by Dr. Salm.
About 1 year ago my brother accidentally
hit me in ny left eye, with a bow.gun. I be-
gan to get blind rapidly in that eye, and ina
short time, could'nt see anything outof it;
total blindness was cauesd by the hurt. 1
heard so much of Dr. Salm’s wonderful suc-
cess in his eye operations, that I went to him,
and he has once more proven his wonderful
gkill on my eye. For to.day, after having
been totally blind, I can see splendidly out of
the same again. Josern HENRY,

trouble, 1 was always afraid to eat, and the
pi in my stomach and chest was terrible,
ut after a term of treatment, I feel now, once
more, as good as ever. I can eat everything

wonderful treatment.
