EEE —E————————————————— —— NAA ———. Bellefonte, Pa., July 30, 1915. “IF YOU HAVE A FRIEND WORTH LOVING.” If you have a friend worth loving, Love him. Yes, and let him know That you love him ere life’s evening Tinge his brow with sunset glow. Why should good words ne'er be said Of a friend—till he is dead? If you hear a song that thrills you, Sung by any child of song, Praise it. Do not let the singer Wait deserved praises long. Why should one who thrills your heart Lack the joy you may impart? If you hear a prayer that moves you By its humble, pleading tone, Join it. Do not let the seeker Bow before its God alone. Why should not your brother share The strength of “two or three” in prayer? If you see the hot tears falling From a brother’s weeping eyes, Share them. And by kindly sharing Own your kinship in the skies, Why should anyone be glad When a brother’s heart is sad? If a silvery laugh goes rippling Through the sunshine on his face, Share it. ’Tis the wise man’s saying— For both grief and joy a place. There's health and goodness in the mirth In which an honest laugh has birth. If your work is made more easy By a friendly, helping hand, Say so. Speak out brave and truly Ere the darkness veil the land. Should a brother workman dear Falter for a word of cheer? Scatter thus your seeds of kindness, All enriching as you go— Leave them. Trust the Harvest Giver; He will make each seed to grow. So, until the happy end. Your life shall never lack a friend. RETURNING FROM INDIA. By One on Medical Duty in that Far Eastern Country. China as Seen on a Brief Trip Through Some of It’s Cities. YoKkoHOMA, APRIL 5th, 1914. Dear Home Folk: I know that you have no doubt gotten the various letters and cards I have been sending to you along the way and I was indeed happy to get those that had ac- cumulated for me here. True, I had not worried for somehow, I knew you were allright, but two and one-half months is a long time without letters and I doubly enjoyed mine here. I know Peking was the last place from which I wrote to you, although I did send you a card from Miyijima. The five of us left Peking and its attractions at last and started north to Mukden on the fast express that connects with the Trans- Siberian trains. It was a bright, beauti- ful trip but very cold and our dismay was great when we reached Mukden late at night to find absolutely nothing in the way of a room, so-we slept on the floor and the couches as best we could and in the morning started for Seoul. All day we ran through most picturesque scene- ry, for Manchuria and Korea are moun- tainous; then, too, they till the soil so thoroughly that it all looked very inter- esting, but there was really no great dif- ference so I can not tell you anything new. Night came and then my friends left me and I decided to go on alone; they were indeed slow in traveling and I wanted to see something of Japan. The next morning I reached Seoul and found a place to stay and started out to see that place. The town was not so different from oth- ers I have described as there were many English speaking people there, but the Korean—well, of all the queer, quaint folk I have ever seen these far exceed the quaintest. They are all dressed in white; the women wear a full, pleated skirt, fastened up under their arms and a tiny short jacket fastens with a broad, flat strap to the right side and just meets this skirt top. A pretty rope slipper goes over their white stoching and, I am not sure, but they looked to have on a full-legged pajama underneath. When on the street they wore what looked like a pink or green kimona but the sleeves hung on either side of their heads and I am told this was the result of an early fight. The enemy had nearly been vic- torious and but few Korean men remain- ed so the women took men’s coats and, putting them over their heads, appeared upon the wall of the city; the enemy, seeing the renewed force, finally with- drew and the Korean women won the fight, so in recognition of this it was de- creed that they could adopt this form of head-dress as a national one. got to Fusan he asked me to go about and see the city, which I was glad to do; then the little boat pulled out and I went off to bed—and the next morning I was in Japan. A flower garden under most perfect cultivation could be no more perfect than this little, over-populated island is—not a square foot of earth going to waste; even the mountains are encroached up- *on to provide food for the people. It is almost too perfect to appeal to me; orange trees loaded with oranges, great trees covered with cherry blossoms until they ought to be called pop-corn trees, or maybe peach trees so beautifully pink you sighed with joy—they were so ex- quisite; the mountains and a bit of blue, blue sea to form the back-ground, and. everywhere these energetic, curiously clad Japs with their most artistic but paper-thick houses to make it all seem more unreal. My first stop was at Miyijima, and it indeed is one perfect spot, and it will always stay so for beyond everything else, this nation is commercial and they know if they change tourists and their “filthy lucre” will stop coming their way. The Inland sea is a big “St. Lawrence” river trip and does deserve all the praise it gets; and then on to Kobes. I found an American second-class hotel at which to stay and the owner was more than kind, and he deserves to have a full house all the time. The city was unin- teresting. I was glad to move on to Kyoto, a city full up to the brim of temples and pal- aces and there, to cap the climax, I went to see the “Cherry Dance.’ I bought first-class tickets and went with some very nice people from the hotel. We first went through the “tea service,” a most interesting procedure, as we were taken into a big, square room, floor cov- ered with clean matting. Around the walls were stools having small tables in front and we were asked to be seated, and then a program was brought and after waiting for perhaps twenty minutes three charming little kiddies came in and brought to each of the occupants of the room a saucer (brown) on which was first folded a paper napkin, on top of this a nice, round, white cake and three tiny straws beside it; we all had to wait until the master of ceremonies began eating before we dared begin. After all were served—and, by the way, each little child carried the saucer with double hands and having placed it before you placed both hands on her knees and made a deep bow, before shuffling off for another. At last all were served then these three little ones came in and sat down (they are being trained for danc-- ing girls) in a most statuesque way, and a taller edition came in, a truly “geisha” girl, and having bowed once, slowly with- drew to come back with a tea-pot, then a tea-caddy and in this slow, most digni- fied manner finally sat down and after much washing of cups, much heating of water and display of beautiful white hands, a decoction of green tea was finally handed to the man and the three little maidens quickly served the rest of us. That brew of tea was the “worstest” I have ever had to drink; thank good- ness there wasn’t much in the bowl- We were then sent to another room and finally we went into a big hall where the foreigners were provided with chairs, up in what was like boxes while the native folk sat on their feet on the floor, and again we waited. At last the curtains just in front of us, and those to the right and left of us started to go up and the orchestra, all of girls in most fantastic dress, came into view and to the weird- est, most peculiarly played music you ever heard, twenty girls on either side slowly twisted and gyrated themselves onto the stage. The dance is justa se- ries of postures, waving of cherry wreaths, fans or scarfs; but the brilliant- colored kimonos, the curious, doll-like faces, the beautiful back-grounds (the back curtains were changed eight times and were truly beautiful,) and the weird music made an entertainment I will not soon forget. The next day I went to Nara, where sacred deer wander around by the hun- dreds, and Old Temples and cherry blos. soms, and curious stone lanterns were go numerous I almost tired of them and I am not going to rave any over them. I \ i then came. on to Yokohoma and after getting to the mission went straight to The men wear high hats, made of | sleep as I was tired.

I had one day at Seoul, then went on to Fusan; the entire way was up through mountains and then down past most beautifully cultivated rice land. But the Korean is so poor he may not even eat rice— he lives on millet, which is a little grain, much cheaper than the rice he loves. The houses were all of brick and mud and the roofs were of thatch—great thick masses of grass and mud, and it was so cold I did not want to even sit in the train without my sweater, There are but few cattle—human labor is cheap and cows eat up the grain that keep men alive, so there is no milk to be had. Carnation brand of cream was what I { ! i white blanket so I did not venture out. Sunday I went to church and on Mon- day I went to the places “The Lady of the Decoration” has made famous and I can’t describe it as well as she does but I'll just say she “hain’t exaggerating any.” Today I came up here to Nikko, and this is unexpected for we left the garden like ferns and began climbing lit- tle mountains and the country became rough looking. When we got here, there were great, great pine trees in long ave. nues with the most beautiful temples at the ends, and all arouud the quiet and peace of the country—thisis truly new in Japan and so just that much more de- sirable. I expect to stay one day here and then —————— — ate on mv morning porridge. After a go back to Tokyo for a few hours, then very beautiful ride we reached Fusan; Yokohoma and will sail for Honolulu on an Australian man had shared my com- Friday, and this is Tuesday, so it won’t partment and he proved to be a very de- | be long now. I have enjoyed it all, this lightful traveling companion. When we ! place especially, and would like to stay longer, but know I will be ready to go when the boat starts. Snow is about four inches deep here tonight. (Continued next week.) Bounty Information—Cured Skin only to be Sent. For the information of those who de- sire to secure bounties as provided for by the Act of April 15th, 1915, we beg to advise that this Act distinctly provides that in case the necessary affidavit is made before a justice of the peace, alder- man, or magistrate, on forms secured from the Game Commission by such official, the unmutilated skin or entire pelt of such animal shall be forwarded to the Game Commission, Harrisburg, and, therefore, it does not provide for the sending of the entire carcass of the ani- mal. Furthermore, we beg to warn all claimants for bounties that they should in all cases skin the animal and cure or dry the skin before forwarding same to Harrisburg, as otherwise the postal au- thorities will very likely destroy the par- cel containing a raw skin or carcass be- fore it reaches Harrisburg because of the fact that such'raw skin or carcass has become offensive during transit, and under such conditions your claim would be entirely lost. Therefore, in the future do not send anything except the cured or dried skin (not the carcass) to the Game Commission, Bounty Division, Har- risburg, Pa. We are trying to help you, and hope you will help us by complying with the above. Increase Size of Parcel Post Packages 12 Inches. Postmaster General Burleson has or- dered that the size limit of packages for parcel post shipment be increased to a combined length and girth of eighty-four inches, which will permit the mailing of standard-size fruit and berry crates. The old limit was seventy-two inches length and girth and there has been widespread demand for its increase. The Postmaster General also authorized the establishment of a receipt system for parcel post packages similar to that em- ployed by express companies. “The new regulation,” says a depart- ment statement, “provides that on pay- ment of one cent the postmaster at the mailing office may give the sender of an ordinary parcel of fourth-class mail a receipt therefor. A postage stamp to cover the charge for the receipt will be affixed to the parcel and the name and the address of the addressee shall be written in the receipt by the sender.” Golden Invitations. A successful Moscow merchant named Spiridonow, who had made a vast fortune, thought of a novel way of inviting the guests to his golden wedding. The invitations were en. graved on golden cards. When the recipients opened the envelopes, they were naturally pleased with the beau- iful invitation, but supposed that they were only gilded. A closer examina- tion, however, showed that the mil- lionaire had actually sent out cards of real gold. Mons. Spiridonow sent in all 200 invitations. The cards were made by a Moscow jeweler by a special process, and the material was taken from a mine owned by the millionaire. Each card was worth about $25. Queer Husband. A husband and wife ran a freak show in a certain provincial town, but unfortunately they quarreled and the exhibits were equally divided between them. The wife decided to continue business as an exhibitor at the old ad- dress, but the husband went on tour. After some years’ wandering the prod- igal returned and a reconciliation took place, as the result of which they be- came business partners once more. A few mornings afterward the people of the neighborhood were sent into fits of laughter on reading the following notice in the papers: “By the return of my husband my stock of freaks has been permanently increased.” ee Varieties of Sausage. A German sausage exhibition was held in Berne a few years ago, and 1,785 varieties were exhibited. The center of the production is in West- phalia, where 400 varieties are pro- duced. It was there that a young highly-trained chemist shut himself in his laboratory and sought fame and fortune, and he achieved both. He took unto himself pork, veal, olives, pepper, fennel, old wine, cheese, ap- ples, cinnamon and herrings’ roes, compounded them with the skill of an artist and the scientific accuracy of a chemist, and evolved a wonder- ful and original sausage, the best “wurst” of its kind. Excelsior. “You can never tell these days,” re- marked the man in the armchair, “where the uplift will bob up next. Every time there are several consecu- tive days of rain and gloomy weather I expect to read how a committee of earnest persons has got together and organized a Society for the Promotion of Higher Barometric Conditions.” Danger in Overripe Clover. Although crimson clover is an ex- cellent forage plant and is eagerly eaten by many animals, it is nearly always fatal to horses and mules when eaten in the full ripe stage. The rea- son for this is that as the clover reaches maturity, the little hairs with which it is covered become hard and indigestible. On being eaten they form into hard balls somewhere in the digestive tract and cause a stoppage which resists every known treatment. Reflections on Old Home Week. PINE GROVE MILLS, July 27th.

They were the long lost treasure of his mak- ing and memory. Home, happiness, friends, all early recollections were in their delightful sound. Crossing his arms upon his breast he lay back in the boat. When the rowers looked around they saw his face still turned toward the cathedral, but his eyes were closed for- ever on the world. Such a tide of memories had swept over the sympathetic chords of his heart that they snapped in twain under the stress of the vibration. Who has not experienced the power of association in its milder mood, its happier form? The return of an anniversary, the melody of a tune, the ringing of the church bells will set memory in motion and unveil the pictures which hang upon the sacred walls. Because memory is clad in sober and russet garb many asso- ciate its form with sadness. Butit is a pleasant sadness from which we never wish to be divorced. Peace, quietness and “cherub” contemplation come in its train. Memory is the mother of gratitude. Mirth and frivolity are born of present excitement, but there cannot be deep and serene happiness in the absence of all memories of the past. i beled “certified.” i en manure.

Connected with it are no superstitious rites handed down from time immemorial; no revelling in baronial halls; no decorating of ‘churches or homes with garlands of flowers and ever- green; no wassalings; no shouting; no carols, no riotous dissipation. Simple in its nature, humble in its pretention, bet ter suited to a people of a more recent origin, it is set apart to the exercise of those home-bred affections, those honest fireside delights which are greater and "Act, the Secretary of Agriculture ap- the field, even right up to the day of foaling. Accompanied with this shold, ike ! all other questions of live stock manage- | ment, it calls for the use of “common | sense.” The Farm Advisers’ work of the Penn- sylvania Department of Agriculture was begun August 1st, 1913, being authorized by a special Act of Assembly passed at the preceding session of the Legislature. The Act made a distinct appropriation for carrying out its provisions for the period ending May 31st, 1915. In accordance with the terms of the pointed ten persons, deemed to be “quali- fied by experience, to give instruction in i the Science of Agriculture and to dem- onstrate approved agricultural meth- ods” at such times and places as should be indicated by the calls made for such service. In order to cover, as nearly as possi- ble, the most important forms of agri- cultural work, two persons were appoint- ed for giving instruction and demonstra- ; tions relating to soil improvement and general crop production, two persons to give special attention to the subject of purer than laurel or fir tree, and which | Poultry and poultry products, two per- | sons assigned to the subject of animal from a natural affinity most closely har- monize with the sweet sanctities of our ! holy religion.

If any were detained from the gather- ing by stern necessity places were pre- pared for them as if they were present, in order that all might feel how closely they were linked by sympathy, and the absent ones, whether on land or sea, were as birds vanishing from the nest but al- ways longing to imigrate back again. Nothing can be more beautiful than the manner of its observance; the occasion was sacred to the reunion of friends, the enjoyment of hospitality, the interchange of kindnesses, the expression of generous regard for the stranger, the widow and the fatherless. This Home week had a history attach- ed to it; a history which runs through the life of a people. We cannot afford to lose reverence for ancestral memories. The voluntary appointment of the good citizens of Centre county by the whole people for .a week for the distinctive pur- pose of rendering thanks to the Almighty for his manifest blessings, civil and religious, national and domestic, marks an epoch in Centre county history.

Gold or silver watch chains can be cleaned with a very excellent result, no matter whether they be mat or polished, by laying them for a few sec- onds in pure aqua ammonia. They should then be rinsed in alcohol, and finally shaken in clean sawdust, free from sand. Imitation gold and plated chains should be cleaned in benzine, then rinsed in alcohol, and afterward shaken in dry sawdust. Never Neglect a Cold. Every cold, especially in a young child, should be considered serious. The possibility and the frequent oc; currence of complications such as mid- dle ear inflammation, inflammation in one of the accessory sinuses of the nose, broncho pneumonia or lobar pneumonia must always be a subject for consideration and prevention if possible.
