Deworalt atc Bellefonte, Pa., April 28, 1916. County Correspondence Items of Interest Dished Up for the Delec- tation of ‘Watchman’ Readers by a Corps of Gifted Correspondents. To Correspondents. We must again request our correspond- ents to get their letters to this office on Tuesday, if possible, and not later than Wednesday morning. Correspondence that reaches this office on Thursday stands very little chance of getting in the paper, owing to our crowded condi- tion at that time. REBERSBURG. All our merchants had their stores ap- propriately decorated for Easter. Harry Musser, who has been teaching school near Lock Haven, has returned home. Mr. Kline, the miller at Centre Mills, has rented his mill and will have public sale in a few days. Henry Detwiler and family moved from the suburbs to the centre of the town of Kreamerville last Tuesday. They are now sawing shingles at Kreamerville. Quite a number of people are having some sawed for new roofs. Quite a number of Brush valley farm- ers are doing their plowing, while others who tried it found the ground too wet. Since Orvis Walker got after a few young men for swearing in front of Gep- hart’s store recently, cuss words in this | place have become somewhat of a rarity. Robert Meyer is busily engaged in cleaning off some new ground on his brother’s farm on which Mr. Day lives. He is taking practical lessons on the theoretical teaching of how to pull stumps. James Confer moved out onto his fath- er’s farm just north of Wolfe's Store, where Emanuel Confer lived. His sister will keep house for him. Jim says he is going to raise a big crop of pole cats. This is a new industry he learned re- cently. The horses of the Rebersburg mail coach got tired waiting while their boss, Victor Walker, was unloading store goods at Haines’ store a few days ago, and started on a dead run up town. The ‘coach collided with a telephone pole and was wrecked. The team was uninjured and no one was hurt. Those Woodward horses certainly have some pep in them. Well, the township roller came in fine style from Pennsvalley to Brush valley with its card of identity attached in the shape of a brass plate on the side on which is engraved “Township of Miles.” It felt at home as soon as it crossed the township line, which is probably account- ed for by the many friendly greetings it received. Brush valley will now have better roads, but what are we going to do with the state highway? Shall we ask it back again, and make it good? That is about the only thing that will give us a good road through the centre of the valley. SMuLL.—We are sorry to note the death of Mrs. Margaret Smull, widow of the late Aaron Smull, who died on April 14th at the home of Mr. Charles H. Smull. She had been an invalid for over four years as the result of a stroke of apoplexy, though her condition had not been critical until the last three weeks. She was a daughter of John and Cathe- rine Limbert and was born on December 22nd, 1835, making her age 80 years, 8 months and 21 days. In 1859 she was married to Aaron Smull who preceded her to the grave six years ago. She is survived by three children, Charles H. Smull and Mrs. Mary Heller, of Rebers- burg, and Mrs. Kate Miller, of Millheim. Two children died fifty-two years ago. She also leaves two brothers, John Lim- bert, of Kearney, N. J., and Benjamin, of Madisonburg. Interment was made on April 17th in the Union cemetery at Re- bersburg, the funeral services having been conducted by Rev. Metzger, of the Lutheran church, of which she was a member. Thus departed another of our highly respected women and one who had many warm friends in the valley. ———For high class Job Work come to the WATCHMAN Office. EAST BRUSHVALLEY. Is the taste of tobacco growing better or worse? Ask Carl Mowery. Miss Mary McCool visited her cousin, Mrs. Ray Weber, one day last week. Fred Brungard, of Mifflinburg, was a visitor in our midst one day last week. His friends in East Sugar valley en- tertained Harry C. Shultz over Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. I. P. Shawver, of Mill" heim, spent Easter with friends and rela- tives in our vicinity. Easter passed out, leaving the egg market defective and a pleasant counte- nance on everybody. Grant Stanley, of Williamsport, visited several days last week at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Zeigler. Owing to the frequent rains since last Friday, many of our farmers are being delayed somewhat with their work. Since the arrival of the (toy road ma- chinery) East Brushvalley is looking for better roads and less tax. How about it? During her Easter vacation, Miss Er- ma Smith, of Milton, paid East Brush- yalley a short visit, which was a surprise to all. W. A. Winters, H. A. Meyer and Ira Brungard, of this place, attended the Yoder Brother's horse sale at Centre Hall on Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. O. F. Stover attended the I. O. O. F. celebration at Bellefonte on Wednesday and reported having been shown a nice time. Miss Anona Yearick, who had been employed by Mr. and Mrs. P. R. Hack- man at Centre Mills, for several weeks, is again under the parental roof. ——They are all good enough, but the WATCHMAN is always the best.

In the week that has elapsed since Governor Brumbaugh issued his procla- mation fixing Thursday, May 25th, as “State-wide Good Roads Day,” plans have developed rapidly for making this day a success. The Governor has placed himself at the disposal of the State Highway De- partment and will spend “State-wide Good Roads Day” at work on the roads, as he did last year. : Organziations, formed in many coun- ties last year to further the object, have Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Spring Medicine HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA, THE GREAT BLOOD PURIFIER, IS THE BEST. Spring sickness comes in some degree to every man, woman and child in our climate. It is that run-down condition of the system that results from impure, im- poverished, devitalized blood. It is marked by loss of appetite and that tired feeling, and in many cases by some form of eruption. The best way to treat spring sickness is to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. This old reliable family medicine purifies, enriches and revitalizes the blood. It is an ail- the-year-round alterative and tonic, and is absolutely the best Spring medicine. Get your blood in good condition at} once—now. Delay may be Ask your druggist for Hood's Sarsa- | parilla, and insist on having it, for noth- ing else can take its place. taken up their work anew and are mak- ing arrangements for a large turn-out on the highway this year. In a number of counties where there were no organizations last year, steps have been taken to secure united action. In Venango county last year work to the estimate of $10,623.00 was done on “State-wide Good Roads Day.” The number of men who worked in that coun- | ty last year was 2,092 and 426 teams were employed on 184 miles of roads; 83 carloads of slag being used to repair the condition of the highways. Venango county’s example is typical of the counties which had live organizations working to make the day successful. Arrangements are being made in many other counties to surpass the work of last year and reports received at the State Highway Department indicate that “State-wide Good Roads Day” of 1916 will set a high record of achieve- ment for future years to meet. It Stopped the Bleeding. My brother, during one of his sur- veying trips, met with a very painful accident, which would have proved fa- tal had not the cook acted promptly and with great wisdom. He was cut- ting down a bush when his ax slipped and nearly severed his toe. In a few minutes he was unconscious. The cook tore off his shoe and sock, made a bandage of a clean towel, at the same time ordering one of the men to bring a large dish and the bag of flour. While they worked to revive my brother, he threw into the dish a quantity of flour; then placed the foot in the flour and proceeded to pack it solid with the flour. The bleeding soon stopped, for the blood could not pene- trate so much flour. When the doc- tor arrived he expressed great sur- prise and told the cook he “had saved a life.”—Exchange. io Build Up After Grippe, Colds —Bad Blood Take a blood cleanser and alterative that starts the liver and stomach into vigorous action, called Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery because of one of its principal ingredients—the Golden Seal plant. It assists the body to manufacture rich red blood which feeds the heart—nerves—brain and organs of the body. The organs work smoothly like mackinery running in oil. You feel clean, strong and strenu- ous instead of tired, weak and faint. Start to take it to-day and before another day has passed, the impurities of the blood will begin to leave your body through the eliminative organs. and in a few days you will know that the bad blood is passing out, and new, rich, pure blood is filling your veins and arteries. Pennsylvania Folks Who Cough, Whose Lungs are Weak Harrisburg, Pa.—“Five years ago I had a good experience from using Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. I had doctored for bronchitis for two months without help. Because I could not take the doctor's medicine I took «Golden Medical Discovery.” My mother bad used it some years previous and this gave me faith in it. The first bot- tl relieved me—the cough stopped and did not return. I have since had oc- casion to use it once in the fall for a severe cold. One bottle has always been enough to cure me completely. —Mgs. Lucy Writs, 1626 Wallace, 2+-not.

A Twice Told Tale ONE OF INTEREST TO OUR READ- ERS. Good news bears repeating, and when it is confirmed after a long lapse of time, even if we hesitated to believe it at first hearing, we feel se- cure in accepting its truth now. The following experience of a Bellefonte man is confirmed after three years. James H. Rine, carpenter, 239 High St., Bellefonte, says: “My back was so weak, I could hardly put on my shoes. I had severe pains through my limbs and could hardly drag my- self around. Doan’s Kidney Pills, which I got at Green’s Pharmacy Co., cured me.” Over three years later, Mr. Rine said: “I have had no occasion to use Doan’s Kidney Pills since they cured me.” Price 50c. at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy— get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that cured Mr. Rine. Foster-Mil- burn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. 61-17 1 THE VERY BEST FLOUR That Money Can Buy ._ Geo.
