Elliott, of Buffalo, formerly of this place, were visiting ‘relatives and friends here last week. Miss Sarah, daughter of Frank Fisher, of Penn Hall, a student at West Chester, was obliged to return home on account of illness. Monday, was decidedly a “‘mush-mally” day. It required two pairs of gum boots to get over the slush puddles and have dry feet. The railing on the foot bridge over Penns creek below the postoffice is in a very shabby, if not dangerous, condition. Why is it not re- paired? During these moonlight evenings sleighing parties are out every night. The jingling of sleigh bells and the merry laugh can be heard at all hours.

Ezra Finkel has opened a restaurant between the hotel and iron bridge over Penns creek, a fine location for the business. Mr. Finkel has been doing a lively business since he commenced operation. Quite a number of improvements in our town are in contemplation for early spring. A knitting factory is again reported, and parties are trying to get it in proper shape to start right. We have had about enough fizzles on that subject. Autos run up and down our main thorough- fare at a senseless rate of speed. Let the autos take a slip on the icy roads, what might be the ending? If the driver would be the only one to break his neck, there would be simply one ver- dict—served him right. Better Flashlight Powder. European scientists have devised a new and better flashlight powder. It is made of peroxide of lanthanium, to which are added substances sim- ilar to those used in gas lamp man- tles. It gives an excellent light and produces less than one-tenth of the smoke and fumes which make other powders so disagreeable and often dan- gerous to use, EE ————————— Wm. D.
