The Stork visited the Hershell and Albert Harpster homes last week leaving 2 daughter at the former's and a son at the latter’s. The venerable Peter Corl went to Phil- adelphia on Tuesday to continue the treatment which has already benefitted him very much. John Garner is carrying his arm in a sling on account of a broken bone sus- tained when his auto back-fired and the crank struck his arm. Mrs. Frank Strouse and daughter Edna, of Baltimore, returned home on Monday after spending ten days or two weeks at the well known Strouse: home. Rev. Victor Nearhoff, the new supply pastor on the charge here, very ably filled the pulpit on Sunday evening. Though quite a young man he is a fluent speaker and his various congregations like him very much. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Yetter and two interesting children of Mt. Union, are visitors at the A. L. Weiland home, and taking in the sights at State College. As this is their first visit to that big educa- tional institution they are naturally much impressed with it. Frank Smith, who had charge of the Star mail route from this place to State College, sold his personal effects on Fri- day and went to Altoona to engage in painting. George Keller is the sub-con- tractor and is delivering the mail with clock-like regularity. Saturday evening was installation night for the newly elected officers of Penns- valley Lodge No. 276 I.

Paul Emerick has returned home after completing his course at the Williams- port Commercial school. A. R. McNitt and Miss Lulu McMul- len were welcome callers at the J. H. Beck home on Sunday evening. Malcolm Emerick, a student at Buck- nell, returned to Lewisburg last Wednes- day after spending his vacation with his parents. : Mrs. Anna Frain came home from Jer- sey Shore on Saturday evening, where she has been working for some time. |- Her health has not been good of late and she means to take a short rest. William Beck has sold his famous bay team to George Wilson, who expects to use it at the McNitt lumber yards. The team was a little too spry for the farm. William is talking of trying a tractor. The graduating class of the Walker township High school with their teacher, Mr. Markle, were invited to the home of school director James Nolan, at Huston, on Friday evening of last week. The class were all present and much enjoyed the splendid supper and the kind hospitality of their host and hostess. Miss Lenora and Mr. Mervin Nolan are members of the class. A pleasant evening was spent and the late train came all too soon to carry the class to their homes. Among the movings down the valley that of Charles Emerick, on Thursday, to the J. H. Long farm near Nittany, was one of the largest and most enjoyed. Everything was moved and put in place with little breakage, and we trust the family may long enjoy their new farm. A number of their neighbors helped them move. Mrs. Emerick had invited her pastor, Rev. W. J. Shultz, and the mem- bers of the Missionary saciety of St. Mark’s church, of which she is president, to enjoy the bountiful dinner which was served, and from all reports they did jus- tice to the meal. Every one present en- joyed the occasion and join in returning thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Emerick for their kind hospitality. : LEMONT. Moving is all the go now. Mrs. Walker visited over Sunday with her son Roy. Jacob Ray and wife are visiting among friends in Selinsgrove. Charles Coble and family spent Sunday at the home of John M. Coble. A large flock of wild-geese passed over here on their way to the north-land. Orin Williams and family are at Dew- art, where he is employed in the cream- ery. Samuel Swarm, who spent the winter a the west, came east, landing Wednes- ay. The warm days last week seemed like spring, but this week opened cold and snowy. The schools of College township have ail closed, excepting the Centre Furnace school. The frogs are busy creaking these evenings to enliven the people and make them think of spring. James E. Lenker was called to Aarons- burg the latter part of last week on ac- count of the illness of his mother. Jacob Murray had the misfortune to run off the state road near the bridge that crosses Spring creek, west of town, and wreck his automobile, on Monday. REBERSBURG. Schools Close—About all the township schools have closed with the exception of the High school, which will end during the last week in May. The teachers are now looking out for another job to teach next winter, except those who got mar- ried or will be married. The Stork. —The stork visited our val- ley last week and made three families very happy. Paul Hackman is all smiles, as this is something new for him. James Confer is also smiling, but the second time, so that the feeling is not so novel. Mrs. John Zeigler was also the happy recipient of a baby. From what we are able to learn, they are all girls. A large number of people have been moving from out this valley. We have added some new citizens to our valley, and lost others. It would make a long list if we would have a complete list of them. Suffice to say that they are about done moving their earthly goods from one point of the earth to the other for this year, as all will be glad when each of them has things fixed up once more in good working order. Miles township now has a new Buffalo- Pitt Steam roller to its credit, and is now able to make as good road as the state highway wherever the state high- way does happen to build roads for po- litical purposes. If the state highway does not get a move on “quickly the township will get far ahead and give it a few samples of quickness and pep. Penns valley wants to use it first, so it is doing work over there first by way of earning something on the way coming here. Great excitement is at present pre- vailing in our peaceful little town on ac- count of a few widowers expecting to become married at any time when no one is supposed to know. There is being some watching done, however, for the happy time which will also be made very lively ones it is reported. These older folks are going to show the rising generation “how to do things” in the line of making noise and keep the newly married people from sleeping and giving them a needed rest. Hotel License Secured.—(Clarence Long secured license from Judge Quigley to continue selling whiskey at the Rebers- burg hotel and Clarence is doing a good business, too. The Rebersburg hotel is the only near place where whiskey can be secured. They come a long distance to have that aching thirst satisfied, and it is generally well satisfied before leav- ing the hotel. George Miller, has already brought a few loads from Coburn during the last few days, and still a great deal more is ordered. Just how long the sell- ing will continue depends upon the de- cision of the higher courts, we are told. There will be plenty time to get several Juore drinks if gotten without great de- ay. HORSE SALE—Last Tuesday Mr. Yoder had another one of his sales of western horses at the Rebersburg hotel. The sale was very largely attended by people from Centre, Union, Clinton, Snyder, and other counties. Mr. Yoder has a reputation for being perfectly honest in all his deal- ings and has the confidence of the peo- ple. This lot of horses was an exception- ally fine selection and all of themsold at Medical. How’s your Blood: PIMPLES AND ERUPTIONS MEAN BAD BLOCD Peopie who have impure or impover- ished blood should be careful to take only a vegetable and temperance rem- edy such as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi- cal Discovery is and has been for near- ly 50 years. Its ingredients printed on wrapper. The first day you start to take this reliable medicine, impure germs and accumulations begin to separate in the blood and arc then expelled through the eliminative organs. In place of the impurities, the ar- teries and veins gradually get fresh vitalized blood and the action of this good blood on the skin means that pimples, boils, carbuncles, eczema, rash, acne and all skin blemishes will disappear. Then you must remember that when the Llood is right, the liver, stomach, bowels and kidneys become healthy, active and vigorous and you will have no more trouble with indi- gestion, backache, headache. Lewisburg, Pa.—“I had been bad for two years with stomach and liver trouble and drop- ns sy. I had spent a good deal of money on the doc- tors but did not get over my trouble. Two years ago I began using Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical ° Discovery, I got °- better as soon as I began to take it. g I have had more appetite and kept more comfortable and enjoyed better health since using it than I had be- fore in years.”—Mgs.

Qur valley has a good reputation as a place to sell horses, which is gradually improving our supply of horses in this valley. Between three and four hundred people attended the sale. Mr. Yoder announced that in a few weeks theré will be another sale near here. The engine, boiler and some other ma- chinery was moved to some other place last week and all that is now left to tell the story of the attempt to find oil and gas in this valley is the large derrick and some machinery belonging to it. No one knows when, if ever, it will be re- turned to complete the drilling. They drilled not quite nine hundred feet, not yet sea level, which at that point is about twelve hundred and fifty feet. Mr. Beyer after waiting a long time on the gas which was once reported to have been found, had finally to buy a gasoline engine. Garrett could also wait no long- er. The oil ,business has a somewhat tricky history, as few know the inside workings of it, especially not those who have land to lease. TRAITS OF ANIMAL CREATION Even the Most Famous Naturalists Have Been Unabie to Explain Robin’s Peculiar Affection. A robin which Edward Beltrando, a Red Lion (Pa.) shoemaker, saved from a cat has developed such an affection for its rescuer that when other robins in the vicinity migrated it remained behind. Although the bird was never caged it does not stray far from the shoe- maker’s shop, coming there at inter- vals during the day and sleeping in the shop every night—New York World. : City Men Better Developed. City men are better developed than country men, according to the report of a German army surgeon, who bases his statement on the result of the ex- He says the farmers were inferior in carriage and in development of bone and mus- cle, and that he found among them more cases of curvature of the spine, flat-foot and varicose veins than amination of 10,000 soldiers. among the city men. wc Medical. Satisfactorily. There are a great many strange facts about animals and insects that seem to defy explanation. Here are a few, an exchange says: A fly will crawl to the top of a win- dow pane, fly back to the bottom and crawl up again. Hardly ever does it fly up and crawl down. It has been known to repeat this former act over thirty times before stopping. Hens always scratch for food with the sun behind them. A blind hen al- ways manages to get the sun behind her when scratching, and she will miss but few bits of food. Cats hardly ever lie with their feet to the fire. In most cases they lie in- stead with their left side to it. Dogs invariably lie with outstretched paws to the fire. A mouse overlooks a perfectly safe food supply, sufficient for a meal or two, to enjoy the perilous pleasures of an unlimited store. It will hide near the food and come out to nibble when hungry, for it is not true that a mouse will seek its hole at the first alarm. If a small snake is kept in captivity and fed and cared for, it will become tame, and after a few months crawl to its captor for food, when approached. This is true especially of the small and harmless varieties. The unerring ability of the homing pigeon to find its former abode is not due to a sense of location, but rather to a natural instinct. which cats and dogs have displayed when taken from their homes.

Which is the more weighty proof— a few words from a Bellefonte resi- dent, whom we know and respect, or volumes from strangers in distant towns? There can be only one reply. Mrs. Mattie Evey, Bellefonte, says: “Off and on for years I suffered from kidney trouble. My back was stiff and sore and I had pain across my loins. Ihad a dull, heavy feeling in my head and black spots often float- ed before my eyes. Dizzy spells were common and I usually felt languid.

Loss of Appetite MOST SUCCESSFULLY TREATED BY TAKING HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA. Loss of appetite is accompanied by loss of vitality, which is serious. It is common in the spring because at this time the blood is impure and im- poverished and fails to give the digestive organs what is absolutely necessary for the proper performance of their func- tions. Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the old reliable all-the-year-round medicine, is especially useful in the spring. Get it from your druggist today. By purifying and en- riching the blood and giving vitality, vigor and tone, it is wonderfully suc- cessful in the treatment of loss of ap- petite and the other ailments prevalent at this time. It is not simply a spring medicine—it is much more than that— but it is the best spring medicine. Hood’s Sarsaparilla makes the rich red blood the digestive organs need. 61-12 mm Attorneys-at-Law. sesan KLINE WOODRINCG—Attorney-at-Law,Belle fonte, Pa.
