tack of the quinsy.

The war began down at Smullton
last Sunday with the shooting of
chickens. Smullton people like to
break the monotony of village life.
Soon, and not too soon, we will have
a ‘Good Roads” day, and give every
citizen in Brushvalley an opportunity
to work on the public roads of our
valley. The hills of our village have
been so badly washed out that the
road needs repairing badly. So let
us all make up our minds to devote
one day free to putting the roads. in
better repair so that travelers through
the valley will have good reason to
comment on their splendid condition.
Our little valley is truly patriotic.
The same spirit that sent from old
Brushvalley soldiers for the Revolu-
tion, Mexican and Civil wars is again
awakening, not only the youth of the
land, but also the surviving Civil war
veterans. Meetings are being held
and the duty we owe our country ad-
vocated in very emphatic terms.
Foremost in the work of exhorting
the youths of our valley in the spirit
of patriotism is Hon. Henry Meyer,
who presided at two meetings held in
the Rebersburg school house. It is
indeed inspiring to see an old veteran
with an arm off telling his fellow cit-
izens what they owe this country, in
preference to all other individual in-
terests or enterprises. Yes, we still
have left some of the spirit that
fought the Indians and drove them
west of the Alleghenies. Fighting
Germans now-a-days is different from
what it was in Caesar’s time. Our
young men who have no knowledge
of present history and of the ambi-
tions of the Hohenzollerns do not rea-
lize the present situation in Europe
and what it would mean should Ger-
many be victorious. The local meet-
ings do much. by way of educating
the youth to the true situation of af-
fairs. Europe and its welfare is now
as close to us as an adjoining State.
And now is the time for old Brushval-
ley to come to the front and voluntar-
ily offer its contribution of soldiers as
was done in the olden time.

Medical.
It’s Three Years old
BUT MR. RINE SAYS IT’S JUST
AS GOOD TODAY AS WHEN
IT WAS FIRST MADE.
Over three years ago Mr. Rine tes-
Yjfied to complete relief from kidney
ills.
He later says that there has not
heen the slightest return of the trou-
e.

of comfort in Mr. Rine’s statement.
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 Kideny 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
Mr. Rine has twice publicly recom-
mended. Foster-Milburn Co., Props.,

Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
Four-Fold Benefit
From Two Grand Medicines in Spring.
You know that physicians often
give two prescriptions, perhaps more,
or medicines to be taken together, or
alternately or at different times.
One reason may be that the medi-
cines are “incompatible”—do not
agree when closely mixed in taking—
or that desired results cannot be se-
cured by one medicine alone.
The most successful combination
spring medicine treatment that we
know of—because perfectly “compat-
ible” and productive of the best re-
sults—is in Hood’s Sarsaparilla and
Peptiron Pills. The former thorough-
ly searches out and expels impurities
from the blood, while Peptiron Pills
give the powerful tonic—they literally
“put iron into your blood.”
Hood’s Sarsaparilla should be taken
before meals and Peptiron Pills after
meals—patients taking them so report
the bencfit is four-fold 62-17

SHOES FOR THE FAT LADY
I have taken the agency for AUNT POLLY’S OUT
SIZE Shoes for stout women.
This line of shoes is scientifically constructed to fit the
© stout woman with short, fat feet and wide ankles.
The average woman who hasa foot of this kind,
must get a shoe two or three sizes longer than her
foot in order to get the width, but with a pair of
AUNT POLLY shoes she can get the shoe just the
right length.
A pair of AUNT POLLY shoes number 7 will not look
any larger than a number 5 of the ordinary shoes.
I have all sizes from 3 to 10.
