No Excuse for “Ain’t.” “Ain’t” is an improper abbreviation of “are not.” British writers spell “a’n’t.” which properly indicates its derivation. Americans make it an in- clusive offense, using it for “am not”. and “is not,” as well as for “are not.” It is unquestionably the worst in- stance of slovenliness in the common speech of today. Yet it is by no means of universal or even common use. It will slip oc- casionally from refined lips, always with a jar to the enunciator, as well as to the hearer, But the habitual user of “ain’ts” is careless of refine- ment. He may be. an excellent citizen who never beats his wife or kicks the cat. But there is likely to be some- thing slip-shod about him somewhere. For “ain’t” is needless, as well as cacophonous. It fills no void and sup- plies no need. English observers complain super- ciliously of the laxness of American speech. American observers who have listened to the marvels of Lan- cashire, Yorkshire, Devonshire and other shire dialects are inclined to resent any assumption of British su- periority. But it is none the less de- sirable to eliminate our own linguis- tic sins, and of these “ain’t” is the most deplorable—*“Cleveland Plain Dealer. : Qualified. “I saw the bride next door throw things at her husband yesterday morning.” “Good heavens!

Over three years ago Mr. Rine tes- Hifisd to comblete relief from kidney ills. He later says that there has not been the slightest return of the trou- e Bellefonte sufferers will take a deal of comfort in Mr. Rine’s state- ment. Read what he says: James H. Rine, carpenter, 239 High St., Bellefonte, says: “My back was so weak I could hardly put my shoes on. I had severe pains through my limbs and could hardly drag myself 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 fora kidney remedy— get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Rine has twice publicly rec- ommended, Foster—Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. 61-25 BOBWHITE (Golinus virginianus) Length, ten inches. where by the clear whistle that sug gests its name. Known every- Range: Resident in the United States east of the plains; introduced in many places in the West. Habits and economic status: The bobwhite is loved by every dweller in the country and is better known to more hunters in the United States than any other game bird. It is no less appreciated on the table than in the field, and in many states has un- questionably been hunted too closely. Fortunately it seems to be practicable to propagate the bird in captivity, and much is to be hoped for in this direction. Half the food of this quail consists of weed seeds, almost a fourth of grain, and about a tenth of wild fruits. Although thus eating grain, the bird gets most of it from stub- ble. Fifteen per cent of the bobwhite’s food is composed of insects, includ- ing several of the most serious pests of agriculture. It feeds freely upon Colorado potato beetles and chinch bugs; it devours aiso cucumber bee: tles, wireworms, billbugs, clover-leaf weevils, cotton-boll weevils, army worms, bollworms, cutworms, and Rocky mountain locusts. Take it all in all, bobwhite is very useful to the farmer, and while it may not be neces- sary to remove it from the list of game birds every farmer should see that his own farm is not depleted by eager sportsmen.

Sights To assist battleships and destroy- ers in locating submerged mines, an American has developed an under-sea searchlight equipment which, when used in conjunction with a special wa- tér glass, makes it possible to distin- guish objects at a distance of 2,000 feet. A powerful electric lamp is mounted on one side of a vessel be- low the water line, at its bow. This may be turned to different angles by an operator on deck. Immediately forward of this is the glass, similar to a modified periscope, forming the ship’s under-sea eye and used to fol- low the illuminated path. When a mine is located in a vessel’s course a torpedo is launched which may be dis- charged electrically. This is watched and at the proper instant detoned, thus exploding the mine. It is believ- ed that the device could also be used on mine sweepers to advantage.— Popular Mechanics. ——Have your Job Work done here. Medical. Misery in Back, Headache and Pain in Limbs.
