four sons, Enoch, of Lock Haven; Bl].

with her sister, Mrs. George High.
Edward Johnson, who was driving the
car that was wrecked when Miss
Daugherty was hurt, and who was ter-
ribly injured himself, paid his first
visit to Orviston recently. Although
still far from what he was, Ed. is in
better shape than any of his friends
thought he could be. Itis a sad thing
to see a fine young fellow get such
2 knock down by fate, and especially
after a chap has been through the
big war and witnessed the terrors Ed.
did, then returned safe to be bowled
over in an auto. Here’s hoping he
will be as good as new some day.

that George McCrackin, of Clearfield,
and Miss Jennie Walker, of Orviston,
were married Monday, August 16th,
at Lock Haven. The calithumpians
MEDICAL.
Act Quickly
Do the right thing at the right time.
Act quickly in time of danger.
In time of kidney danger, Doan’s
Kidney Pills are most effective.
Plenty of Bellefonte evidence of
their worth.
Mrs. Elmer Yerger, 306 N. Beaver
St., Bellefonte, says: “About ten years
ago I had kidney trouble in its worst
form. My back was so weak I could
hardly get around. My kidreys acted
very irregularly and I was in constant
misery. Dropsical swellings set in. I
tried different remedies, but received
no benefit. Doan’s Kidney Pills were
recommended to me and I at once be-
gan their use. In a few days, the
trouble was relieved and I continued
their use for about three months.
They entirely removed the distressing
kidney disorders. My back was
strengthened and I had no further
trouble with my kidneys. I think
Doan’s are the best kidney medicine
to be had.” (Statement given April
22, 1914.)
On October 18, 1918, Mrs. Yerger
said: “It is a pleasure and a great
privilege for me to again speak a
good word for Doan’s Kidney Pills.
Others in my family have since had
the same good results from Doan’s
as I had. I confirm all I said in my
former statement.”

residence of George High on Monday.
Mrs. High’s sister and her husband
were the objects of their jollification.
Mr. and Mrs. Maggs no doubt enjoyed
the fun as much as the rest. There
are several more young men who are
rather anxious to put their heads
through the matrimonial yoke, and
they are fine young chaps, too; and
we hope the fair young ladies they
are trying to hook up with, will be
real helpmates, and not make their
partners feel that the tie should be
called the (un) holy bunk of matri-
mony. Howsomever, as the poet puts
it, our Orviston girls are not only
good looking, they are good cooks and
good housekeepers; in fact they are
hard to beat when it comes to being
all around, first class girls.

Why You Should Make aWill
To protect your loved ones.
To safeguard your estate.
By making a Will you can appoint the Bellefonte Trust
Company as your Executor or Trustee.
Vou can thus assure to your heirs the business manage-
ment and financial responsibility which this institution affords.
Your wishes can be observed in the distribution of your
property, for if you do not leave a Will the law may divide up
your possessions in a way that you might not desire.
How Have You Made Your Will?
Do not write your own Will.
“Home-made” Wills are
dangerous and often cause law-suits, because, when drawing a
Will the law must be known, both as to wording and terms,
Consult a lawyer today about the making of your Will and have
him name the Bellefonte Trust Company to act as your ExXecu-
tor and Trustee.
