Will Undoubtedly Prove a Great Aid
to the Language as Well
as Morals.
A new translation of the Bible into
Portuguese has just been completed.
Brazil, not Portugal, is the country
where the larger part of this edition
will be sent. Brazil is the greatest of
Portuguese-speaking populations, al-
though it used to be said that 10,000
users of that language lived around
Honolulu, a city in Uncle Sam’s terri-
tory. Maybe they all know English
now.
Aside from its moral values, the
Bible is particularly needed in Brazil,
it is said, as an aid to preserving the
standard forms of language. As a
matter of history, no book has exerted
an equal influence in lands where
English is read and spoken. The
phraseology of the King James ver-
sion is interwoven through modern lit-
erature. Its general use on this con:
tinent, where new conditions and a
strong tendency to slang would make
for rapid change, has had a steadying
effect on our vocabulary.
It isn’t likely that the classic beauty
of the English Bible has been paral
leled in Portuguese. But even a re-
spectable rendering of a beck which
has proved its universal appeal in
every land will help in more ways
than one. Brazil is growing rapidly.
Every means should he used to pre
serve its moral and linguistic stand.

Motoring in Spain.
Motorists in Spain describe the road
between Irun and San Sebastian as
very beautiful, and the latter place,
even in the rain, looks most attrac-
tive to those speeding through. The
way runs along the Oria river, a tur-
bulent stream, through Tolosa to the
village of Beasain, where the traveler
leaves the Oria.
By a curious optical illusion, al-
though running steadily uphill all the
while, meeting the rushing torrent,
the road appears to be a down-hill
one,
So it is on the reverse journey, al-
though from the running of the car
one is obviously going down quite a
considerable gradient the road looks
level,

“I see you have your arm in a sling,”

self on the back.”

GEORGE H. RICHARDS
[Democratic candidate for Sheriff.]
George H. Richards, the candidate of
the Democratic party who won his place
upon the ticket for Sheriff by the largest
vote cast at the recent primaries for any
of the candidates of his party, is the son
of George Richards, who was born at
Unionville, this county, whence as a
young man he moved to Clearfield where
also George H., the present aspirant for
the office of Sheriff, first saw the light of
day. Remaining there until his family
had somewhat grown up, Mr. Richards,
his father, changed his residence to Osce-
ola Mills and it was there young George
found his first employment on the large
saw mill then in operation at that place.
In the year of 1875 the great fire broke
out and swept the saw mill and the pos-
sessions of the Richard family as well as
! of hundreds of others away.
As the support of the parents of young
George almost entirely devolved upon
him, it became necessary for him to look
eleswhere for work to meet the emer-
gency. Walking to Philipsburg he there
found employment by hiring himself to a
butcher. By dint of energy and hard
work, and in the face of trials innumer-
able, he finally succeeded in securinga
shop and launched into business for him-
self. Today he is one of the leading bus-
iness men of that community.
In proof of the faith his townsmen
have in his business capacity he has been
chosen FOUR TIMES to represent them
in the borough council and that body has
invariably placed him on the most im-
portant committees.
Mr. Richards is a genial and jovial gen-
tleman, good nature cropping out of
every part of his make-up. He is chari-
table to a fault, as many of the recipients
of his kindness around his town are
ready at any time to affirm. His popu-
larity is not imaginary. It is real amd
spells victory at the polls in November.
Altogether Mr. Richards is an ideal
candidate for the office to which he as-
pires.

Trade Increase.
A trade increase which has attracted
wide attention because of its develop-
ment out of all normal proportions is
that of therice exportation from the Unit-
ed States. In 1914 there were exported
18,223,264 pounds of rice, but last year
the total aeroplaned to the enormous |.
amount of 75,448,635 pounds, or nearly
four times as much. This is nota war
demand, since the principle recipients of
American rice have been Spain, Greece,
Argentina, Italy and sections of the West
Indies. This development is regarded by
experts in the Bureau of Plant Industry
as a striking example of the efficiency of
American agricultural methods as taught
by Uncle Sam in his last six years’ cam-
paign on rice growing. It is only three
years ago since the rice industry began
in California by the planting of 1400
acres on adobe soil in the Sacramento
Valley. This year in that State alone
34,350 acres were sown to rice with an
average output of over seventy bushels
to the acre at an average price of $1 per
acre. This, it will be noted, is an even
larger return per acre than can be se-
cured from the richest wheat field of the
Northwest.—Reformatory Record.

ache and a dull, constant ache across
my loins. I was in misery at times
and in the morning was sore and
lame. Idreaded to begin my house-
work. Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured
at Parrish’s Drug Store, made my
kidneys normal and relieved the
backache. I have had no return of
the trouble. Another in my family

Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
Catarrh Leads
To. Consumption
Catarrh is as much a blood disease as
scrofula or rheumatism. It may be re-
lieved, but it cannot be removed by
simply local treatment. It causes head-
ache and dizziness, impairs the taste,
smell and hearing, affects the voice, de-
ranges the digestion, and breaks down
the general health. It weakens the deli-
cate lung tissues and leads to consump-
tion.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla goes to the seat of
the trouble, purifies the blood, and is so
successful that it is known as the best
remedy for catarrh.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla strengthens and
tones the whole system. It builds up.
Ask your druggist for Hood’s, and insist
on having it. There is no real substitute.

stitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
which reads as follows:
Section 8. The debt of any county, city, bor-
ough, township, school district, or other munic-
ipality or incorporated district, except as herein
provided, shall never exceed seven per centum
upon the assessed value of the taxable property
therein, nor shall any such: municipality or dis-
trict incur any new debt, or increase its indebt-
edness to an amount exceeding two per centum
upon such assessed valuation of property, with-
out the assent of the electors thereof at a public
election in such manner as shall be provided by
law; but any city, the debt of which now ex-
ceeds seven per centum of such assessed valua-
tation, may be authorized by law to increase the
same three per centum, in the aggregate, at any
one time, upon such valuation, except that any
debt or debts hereinafter incurred by the city
and county of Philadelphia for the construction
and development of subways for transit pur-
poses, or for the construction of wharves and
docks, or the reclamation of land to be used in
the construction of a system of wharves and
docks, as public improvements, owned or to be
owned by said city and county of Philadelphia,
and which shall yield to the city and county of
Philadelphia current net revenues in excess of

out the consent of the electors thereofat a public
election in such manner as shall be provided by
law; but any city, the debt of which on the first
day of January, one thousand eight hundred and
seventy-four, exceeded seven per centum of such
assessed valuation, and has not since been re-
duced to less than such per centum, may be
authorized by law to increase the same three per
centum in the aggregate, at any one time, upon
any such valuation. The city of Philadelphia,
upon the conditions hereinafter set forth, may in-
crease its indebtedness to the extent of three per
centum in excess of seven per centum upon such
assessed valuation for the specific purpose of pro-
viding for all orany of the following purposes,—

ing the principal amount which would yield such
annual, current net revenue, at the average rate
of interest, and sinking fund charges payable

such purposes, up to the time of such ascertain-
ment. The method of determining such amount,
so to be excluded or allowed as a credit, may be
prescribed by the General Assembly.
In incurring indebtedness, for any one, or
more of said purposes of construction, improve-
ment, or reclamation, the city of Pniladelphia
may issue its obligations; maturing not later than

Such obligations may be in an amount sufficient
to provide for and may include the amount of the
interest and sinking-fund charges accruing and
which may accrue thereon throughout the period
of construction and until the expiration of one
year after the completion of the work for which
said indebtedness shall haye been incurred; and
