Fierce Fighting Between Russian
and German Forces.
Tarnopol, one of the pivotal points
evacuated by the Russians during their
recent retreat on the Galician front, is
the subject of the following war geo-
graphy bulletin issued by the National
Geographic society:
“Before the Russians swept into
the town in thre course of their first
offensive through Galicia in 1914, Tar-

“What’s the price, Tom ?”
“How much you got, Peter?”

You’re seventy-three. I'm fifty-

“I'll grant it, Tom.”

“You mark that.”
“Ah, well, I'll grant it, anyhow.”

“Another thing, Tom,” says Peter.
“You’r askin’ me to pay for twenty

“I got you where I wants you,”

“Lads,” says Pinch-a-Penny to the
others in the rodney, “I calls you t’
witness that I didn’t ask Tom Lark
for his seat in the boat. I wasn’t no
coward. I’ve asked no man t’ give up
his life for me. This here bargain is
a straight business deal. Business is

An’ I calls you to witness that I'm
willin’ t* pay what he asks. He’ve
something for sale. I wants it. I’ve

I'll pay it.” Then he turned to Tom.
“You wants this money paid t° your
wife, Tom ?”
“Aye,” says Tom, “t’ Mary. She’ll
know why.”
“Very good,” says Pinch-a-Penny.
“You’ve my word that I'll do it. . . .
Wind’s jumpin’ up, Tom.”
“I wants your oath. The wind will
bide for that. Hold up your right
hand.”
Pinch-a-Penny shivered in a blast
of the gale. “I swears,” says he.
“Lads,” says Tom, ‘“you’ll shame
this nan to his grave if he fails to
ay!
“Gettin’ dark, Tom,” says Peter.
“Aye,” says Tom; “’tis growin’
wonderful cold an’ dark out here. I
knows it well. Put me ashore on the
ice, lads.”
They landed Tom, then, on a near-
by pan. He would have it so.
“Leave me have my way!” says he.
“I’ve done a good stroke o’ business.”
Presently they took old Pinch-a-
Penny aboard in Tom’s stead; and
just for a minute they hung off Tom’s
pan to say good-by.
“I sends my love to Mary an’ the
children,” says he. “You’ll not fail t’
remember. She’ll know why I done
this thing. Tell her twas a grand
chance an’ I took it.”
“Aye, Tom.”
“Fetch in here close,” says Tom.
“I wants to talk to the ol’ skinflint
you got aboard there. I'll have my
say, ecod, at last! Ye crab!” says he,
shaking his fist in Pinch-a-Penny’s
face, when the rodney got alongside.
says Tom. “God

buy? Twenty years o’ my life!
What will ye pa yfor it? Twenty
years o’ my life!” And he laughed.
And then he cut a caper, and come
close to the edge of the pan, and
shook his fist in Pinch-a-Penny’s face
again. “Know what I done in St.
John’s last fall?” says he. “I seen a
doctor, ye crab! Know what he told
me? No, ye don’t! Twenty years o’
my life this here ol’ skinflint will pay
for!” he crowed. “Two thousand dol-
lars he’ll put in the hands o’ my poor
wife!”
Well, well! The rodney was mov-
ing away. And a swirl of snow
shrouded poor Tom Lark. But they
heard un laugh once more.
“My heart is givin’ way anyhow!”
he yelled. “I didn’t have three
months t’ live!”
Old Pinch-a-Penny Peter done what
he said he would do. He laid the
money in poor Mary Lark’s hands.
But a queer thing happened next day.

LOYAL TO MOTHER CHURCH
Deep Religious Instinct Characterizes
the Peasants of Both Russia
and Poland.
A deep religious instinct seems to be
inborn with the Slav peasants, both
Russian and Pole. The only difference
is the form of his religion, for practi-
cally all the Poles are adherents of the
Church of Rome. With both races re-
ligion and patriotism are closely inter-
twined. The Slav temperament seems
to be particularly susceptible to relig-
fous impressions, and devotion to the
church reaches a degree for which it is
difficult to find analogies in any other
part of modern Europe. In the daily
life of the Polish peasant, the name of
Christ and the Virgin will be heard re-
peatedly. He would not think of living
in a house that had not been blessed
by a priest. A manufacturer would
find it difficult to keep his hands if the
factory had not been blessed. A thea-
ter would died from lack of patronage
if the priestly blessing had been denied
the building. The Pole is probably the
mast faithful of all the adherents of
the Church of Rome.—The Christian
Herald.
Balfour’s Impressions of America.
Mr. Balfour has said in public sin-
gularly little about his experiences in
America, but some day he may consent
to record his impressions. Should he
do so we may look for an entertaining
comparison between the house of com-
mons and the house of representatives.
Here, for example, is a characteristic
circumstance which the reporters seem
‘to have missed:
The first stage of the war crisis was
a kind of Baby Month in Washington.
Children, and sometimes very young
children, were taken into the visitors’
.galleries in order that they might car-
ry into later life the memory of being
present at an historic sitting, and on
‘the day of Mr. Balfour’s address to the
‘house a good many members of con-
gress had children with them on the
floor. The one congresswoman, Miss
Rankin, was accompanied by two ju-
venile relatives. It was remarked that
some of the children in the galleries
were kept, overcome with sleep, to the
end of the long night sitting at which
the war vote was taken.—Manchester
Guardian.
Girl Conductor Beats Literalist.
A well-known provincial paper in
England makes itself responsible for
the following story: The tramcar was
hopelessly overcrowded, and several
people who had achieved the upper
deck were transgressing all regula-
tions by standing. “Now, then,” called
out the girl conductor, with emphasis,
“you can’t stand on top.” “Well,” said
one literalist, smiling blandly, as he
peered down the steps, “we are stand-
ing, whether we can or not.” The girl
answered nothing, but promptly
pressed a button. The car jumped for-
ward, and the literalist involuntarily
took a seat on the floor. “There,” said
the girl, apparently in good humor,
quoting the barrister in a famous play.
“you think you can, but you can’t.”—
Christian Science Monitor.
When She Finds a Penny.
Mite boxes which are found in many
homes of Alexandria to receive stray
pennies for missionary societies are
gazed at with frowning faces by the
smaller children of many homes be-
cause the boxes take pennies that oth-
erwise would go t® the youngsters.
The other day a little girl inquired of
her mother “what that thing was hang-
ing on the wall.” The mother replied
that it was a mite box and that money
for foreign missionary work was coi-
lected in them. “Well,” said the little
girl, “when I find a penny I ain going
to drop it in the box.”’---Indiunapoiis

This is Latest Sport of British Avia-
tors, According to One of Latest
Tales From Trenches.
In a London newspaper is printed
an account of a British aviator flying
over the German lines and catching a
bullet that had “stopped dead still for
the smallest fraction of a second” be-
fore turning from an ascending into a
descending missile. Although the news-
paper prints no photograph of the
bullet, nor even of the pocket into
which the aviator placed it, the odd
story has other elements of truth suf-
ficient to prove the authenticity of the
whole narrative, remarks the New
York Herald. It has a swarm of Ger-
man bullets “whinin,;” this is indis-
putable, because that has been the
characteristic of all Teutonic bullets
ever since the battle of the Marne. It
has the Germans trying to “wing” the
flier; here is the typical Teutonic at-
tempt to induce suffering through
maiming.
But the greatest evidence of truth is
the final sentence explaining how “the
aviator reached quickly, grabbed the
bullet and put it in his pocket” He
“grabbed” it quickly merely because
he was flying at the rate of 180 miles
an hour, but he put it in his pocket
because a whining German bullet that
had been fired from a rifle and had
gone through the superheated air sur-
undi hi i s as white hot !
rounding the aviator was as w od the foriner
as Munchausen would be if he were
alive to castigate those who doubt the
newest tale from the trenches.
CASE OF BROTHERLY LOVE
New King of Greece Once Hurled
Challenge at Crown Prince, But
Latter Declined to Accept.
A good story is told concerning the
new King Alexander of Greece, be-
tween whom and his elder brother,
Prince George, there is not, nor ever
has been, any love lost. One day
shortly after his father’s accession to
the throne a shoot was in progress on
the royal estates near Athens, and
during the luncheon hour a discussion
arose on accidents at shooting par-
ties.
“No man has ever peppered me in
mistake for a pheasant,” remarked
Prince George. “If anyone were fool-
ish enough to do so I would shoot him
dead on the spot.”
Shortly afterward, when sport had
been resumed, the crown prince felt a
shower of shot rattle round his gait-
ered legs, and, turning in a fury to
find whence it proceeded, saw his
brother with a gun leveled in his di-
rection.
“I've got ‘another barrel ready,”
said Prince Alexander. “Will you
shoot?”
The challenge was not accepted.
Maid of Orleans Annexed.
More annexations! ‘This time the
German victim is Joan of Arc. Yes, the
Germans are actually claiming the pa-
tron saint of France as a fellow-coun-
trywoman, says the London Chronicle.
They have acquired large quantities of
statuettes and images of the maid in
the French towns which they still oc-
cupy. In one case, at least, they or-
dered a manufacturer to make dupli-
cates of his casts. The Frenchman
was astonished, and asked the reason
of this devotion. “Oh,” was the reply,
from a Bavarian officer, “Joan of Arc
is not French, since she was a Lor-
rainer, and Lorraine is German. Cer-
tainly she prayed to heaven for the
success of our arms, for they are di-
rected against her mortal enemies; the
French, who delivered her up, and the
English, who burned her!”
The Perfect Blockade.
Carl W. Junch, a millionaire dyer,
said in Cincinnati:
“Now we've cut off the neutrals,
Germany is bound to fare as sparsely
as the Schmidt family.
“Mrs. Schmidt, you know, took her
large family of children to the city
one day, and when lunch time came
she led them into a restaurant.
“ ‘Waiter,’ she said, ‘one sirloin
steak and seven plates.’
“The waiter gave a start. Then he
bent over Mrs. Schmidt and whispered,
respectfully:
“‘Beg pardon, madam, but if you
and your family was to take that there
table by the kitchen door and sniff
hard I think you'd get more of a
meal.’ ”?
Cold Congregations.
Billy Sunday told a story at a Brook-
lyn luncheon about an apathetic Mis-
sourian congregation.
“This bunch’s preacher,” he said,
“has wrastled among ’em for thirty-
seven years, and never an encouraging
word but one has he got in all that
time. :
“He told me about it with tears in
his eyes. He said he was on the way
home to dinner when a deacon hailed
him. The deacon shook him by the
hand and then actually said:
“Ah, parson, that was a beautiful
text you preached from Sunday eve-
nin’. ”
Social Centers for Soldiers.
The Y. W. C. A. has opened its first
camp house at the Plattsburg training
camp. Intended as a social center
where student soldiers may meet their
woman friends and their families, it
is equipped with a restaurant, a broad
terrace facing the parade grounds, a
reception room and rest and writing
rooms. The Y. W. C. A. is endeavor-
ing to raise $1,000,000 for the erection
of similar buildings at other training
‘camps here and in Europe. Some of
its workers are already in France in
preparation for this work.
SELECT YOUR LAYING HENS.
Egg Yield is Doubled by
Poultry.
Actual test by a poultryman in
Pennsylvania shows that egg yield is
frequently doubled or tripled by a
judicious selection of the farm poul-
try flock.
The period from August to Novem-
ber is the best time to judge of a
hen’s production. It is an establish-
ed fact that the poor producing hen
seldom lays any eggs during the sea-
son of high prices. Eggs are high in
price at present and will continue to
rise. Poor producers stop laying in
June, July and August. Good layers
continue to produce during the win-
ter months.
Instances are not lacking to show
the value of poultry selection. In
one flock in Pennsylvania 50 good
hens and 50 poor ones were selected
from a flock of 200 Barred Rocks.
The remaining 100 birds represented
the average run of the flock. During
the first nine days the 50 good hens
laid 117 eggs, the 50 poor ones 69,
and the unassorted hens 177, in oth-
er words for every egg the poor birds
laid, the good hens laid 23.
In another case 10 good white Leg-
horn hens selected from a flock of
over 200, laid in ten days 43 eggs as
against 14 eggs laid by 10 poor
birds from the same flock.
In still another instance 75 super-
ior and 75 inferior hens were select-
ed from a flock of 150 white Leg-
horns. During an equal period the
75 poor hens did not lay any eggs
while the former 75 good hens equal-
yield of the entire
flock. ;
Now is the time to cull the flock.
The good winter layer has bright
eyes, legs set well apart, pale beak
and shanks in late fall and early win-
ter, a strong, broad back, a deep full
abdomen, a deep rounded chest, and
is vigorous and active.
The farm bureau will be glad to
help anyone who is interested in se-
lecting their flock. We expect to
have the poultryman, who has select-
ed the above flocks, in this county
during the month and anyone inter-
ested in having their flocks selected
should get in touch with the farm
bureau at once. This selection work
is done free of charge.—By R. H.
Olmstead, County Farm Agent.
Weli-Expanded Lungs Not Enough.
Pure blood is indispensable to the health
and strength of the lungs, The delicate
structure of these organs makes it neces-
sary. - When the blood is impure the lungs
lose their tone, and even if they are per-
mitted to expand freely, they have not the
power fully to perform their important
work. The fact is, there is nothing more
necessary in our physical economy than
pure blood— the kind of blood that Hood's
Sarsaparilla makes. This medicine is the
good old reliable family remedy for diseas-
es of the blood, scrofula, rheumatism, ca-
tarrh, and low or run-down conditions of
the system. At this time, when coughs
and colds are so prevalent, Hood's Sarsa-
parilla is an invaluable tonic. Get it to-
day, and begin to take it at once. Accept
no substitute. : 32-40
37 Cow Testing Associations Operat-
ing in Pennsylvania.
“It is the best paying investment I
ever made, for with the first visit of
the tester I learned how to save more
than the whole cost of #esting.” This
is the verdict of a member of a West
Virginia Association concerning the
value of cow-testing work.
Because the cost of membership in
a cow-testing association averages in
most States from $1 to $1.50, the
statement of another West Virginia
association member, “I would pay $5
per cow if necessary, to keep this
work going another year,” is also of
interest.
Cow-testing work in Pennsylvania
which is under the supervision of
A. A. Borland, in charge of dairy
husbandry extension at The Pennsyl-
vania State College, and W. L. Kel-
logg, of the dairy division, U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, also located
at State College, is growing rapidly.
Thirty-seven associations are now in
operation in this State.
One association reports that forty-
eight cows have been sold as poor
producers and that nineteen out of
thirty-six members feed balanced ra-
tions. Another reports that thirty
cows produced more than forty
pounds of fat in a month and that
cows are of better grade as a result
of the interest stimulated by testing
work.
A third organization reports that
eighteen out of twenty-six members
feed balanced rations; that two car-
loads of feed were bought at a sav-
ing of $160; that one member stop-
ped making butter and shipped milk
to Pittsburgh, thereby increasing his
profit $35 a month; that another
member on learning his test changed
dealers and increased his profits $28
the first month; and that two thous-
and dollars have been invested in
purebred Holsteins. ’

If you suffer from backache—
From urinary disorders—
Any curable disease of the kidneys,
Use a tested kidney remedy.

Wm. McClellan, 244 Lamb St.,
Bellefonte, says: “I suffered for a
long time from pains and lameness
across my back and some mornings I
could hardly get out of bed. My back
ached constantly and the kidney se-
cretions were irregular in passage.
Hearing a great deal about Doan’s
Kidney Pills I decided to try them.
They cured me and I am now enjoying
good health. My advice to any one
afflicted with kidney complaint is to
take Doan’s Kidney Pills.”

Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
Nux, Iron, Pepsin
and Sarsaparilla
The combination of two great med-
icines, Hood’s Sarsaparilla and Pept-
iron, by taking them in conjunction,
one before eating and the other after,
brings into co-operation the above-
named substances, best for the blood,
nerves and digestive organs.
This combination is especially rec-
ommended in cases that are scrofu-
lous, or rheumatic, anemic and nerv-
ous, or where the blood is both impure
and pale, deficient in iron—one of the
most common disease conditions of the
present day.
In cases where a laxative is needed,
Hood’s Pills should be taken. They
work in perfect harmony with Hood’s
Sarsaparilla and Peptiron, and are
mild and efficient. 62-37
