Miss Catherine Kepler, who has held down a good position in Wash- ington the past two years, is home on a fortnight’s vacation. Moving time is drawing near and a number of families who will have to flit have not yet secured an abiding place, as houses are very scarce. Mrs. Alice McGirk and Mrs. Sadie Krebs, both of whom submitted to op- erations at the Bellefonte hospital re- cently are getting along very nicely. Mrs. Mary Homan, wife of F. O. Homan, was taken to the Glenn sani- torium at State College on Monday for the removal of a tumorous growth.

Dunlap and Miss Cathe- rine Dunlap spent Monday afternoon at State College on a shopping tour and visiting Mrs. Bessie Dunlap at the Glenn sanitorium. Snow fell steadily in this section for sixteen hours Saturday night and Sunday, almost blocking the roads and resulting in small congregations at the various churches. Mrs. C. A. McCormick and Mrs. Ve- ra Bloom were callers at the L. H. Os- man home Saturday afternoon and were delighted to find Mrs. Osman much improved in health. On account of the deep snow and un- favorable weather conditions the dedi- cation of the new organ in the.Luth- eran church was postponed until Sun- day, March 6th, at 10:30 a. m. Among those who registered at the St. Elmo the first day of the week were H. B. Shattuck, H. D. Rhoads, B. D. Bloomington, C. R. Johnson and J. W. Stevenson, all of State College. The Washington birthday: exercises in the High school on Tuesday, under the direction of Prof. Bowersox, were especially interesting and all the stu- dents took their part in an excellent manner. A good audience was. pres- ent to hear them. Henry Sentz is hard at work taking out lumber for his new home to be erected on the old location of the house which went up in smoke almost a year ago. It is his intention to start the work of rebuilding as soon as the weather will permit. Miss Nannie McWilliams, teacher of the Glades school, went to Centre Hail to spend Sunday with her sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Frank V. Goodhart, became stormstaid owing to the deep snow and did not get baak in time for the special exercises in her school on Tuesday. You don’t want to miss the quin- tette from the Susquehanna Universi- ty in the I. O. O. F. hall tomorrow (Saturday) evening. The young men have received flattering endorsements wherever they have appeared and their entertainment is sure to please. Admission, 25 and 35 cents. Cards have been received here an- nouncing the arrival of a youthful heir in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Rob- ert Nolan, at Cleveland, Ohio, the new member of the household having been christened Robert. He is a grandson of that former well known Centre countian, Charles F. Dannley. Mrs. W. B. Stauffer, of Philadelphia, who has been visiting Centre county relatives and friends, departed last Thursday for her new home at Water- ford, Pa., where Mr. Stauffer is teach- ing in a vocational school.

Dunlap, on Water street. Mr. Dunlap return- ed home on Sunday evening while his wife will remain here for several days then be accompanied home by her mother-in-law, for a visit at Cherry Tree and Twin Rocks. Twenty-seven years ago on Wash- fngton’s birthday J. Cal Gates and Miss May Hastings were married at the Lutheran parsonage at Pine Grove Mills by Dr. C. T. Aikens, and on Tuesday they celebrated the event at their cosy home at Pennsylvania Fur- nace. Mr. and Mrs. Gates have four children, two boys and two girls, and many friends extended congratula- tions on their anniversary. ORVISTON. Miss Hazel Walker, of Port Matil- da, is helping Mrs. Newton Cameron through the winter months, Miss Walker was a former Orviston girl, and her many friends are glad to have her back again. Mr. and Mrs. Philip Deitz, of the up- per works, accompanied by their little daughter Lulu and sons, Walter and Korman, were visitors at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Elmer Packer, of Beech Creek. They report a very en- joyable time. J. W. Neipling, of the Garlock Pack- ing Co., of Palmyra, N. Y., paid a vis- it to his mother, Mrs. M. A. Neipling, and his sister, Mrs. John Hume Sr., of Orviston. His stay was short, as he could only be absent from his work for a limited time. Mrs. George McCracken is the proud and happy mamma of a splendid little son. Mr. McCracken, whose work calls him from his little family, has not as yet seen his wee treasure. We are sure he will be very much pleased with him, however, when he does arrive home. Mrs. John Hume Sr. visited her son, Louis N. Hume, proprietor of the Ex- change cafe, at Renovo. She found him feeling rather under the weather, as he is short of help, and trade is be- ginning to be very brisk, so Mr. Hume finds that playing chet and kitchen help at the same time, besides doing all the booking, is a little too much for one young man, and he needs the help. Mrs. Sarah Moffitt, of Philipsburg, and Mrs. Ella Thomas, of Clearfield, visited their aunt, Mrs. Rebecca Wo- mer, and their cousin, Mrs. Amelia Rickard. They had just returned from a trip to Florida and brought a treat to their aunt in the shape of some fine grape fruit. Mrs. Womer still remains in about the same.con- dition, although somewhat weaker. But she is unfailingly cheerful. Married, at the home of the bride’s parents, by Rev. Walter T. Merrick, Marion, the beatutiful and . accom- plished little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Daley, of Romola, and Paul Lomison, of Orviston. Mrs. Lomison is a general favorite with her young friends, and also the older folks. Mr. Lomison is a very worthy young man and is well and favorably known throughout the county. The young people expect to go to housekeeping in Orviston, and will do so with the heartiest wishes of the whole commu- nity. : $t y eee A eee LEMONT. Max Fishel, son of John Fishel, is housed up with tonsilitis, Andrew Dale and wife are rejoicing over the arrival of a big daughter.

Rachau has sold his mill at Clintondale which was partially destroyed by fire some months ago, to a Jersey Shore party, who expects to rebuild at once. We are glad to report that Mr. B. W. Rumberger’s health is improving and his many friends hope that he may soon regain his normal strength and activity. He is a good citizen and the kind of a man that is needed in the valley. Mr. C. Y. Wagner was down the val- ley one day last week looking up prospective business for his new mill at Bellefonte. He had quite a trade from this section when he operated the old Brockerhoff mill at Roopsburg and is always a welcome visitor in this section. Dean Louis E. Reber, of the Univer- sity of Wisconsin, was a welcome vis- itor at the J. H. Beck home the early part of the week. He is a brother of Mrs. Beck andisin charge of the ex- tension department at the Wisconsin University. He was on his way to Philadelphia in the interest of his work. And on Saturday night it snowed. The result, Sunday was a quiet day down the valley. The Emerick bus did not make any morning trip but got through in the afternoon and evening. There was little travel on the state road all day, but fortunately there was little wind and no drifting of the snow. Messrs. James Nolan, Charles E. Emerick, Forest Harter and others of our progressive farmers went to State College one evening last week and at- tended a meeting of the Farm Co-op- erative League. They report a very interesting meeting. A large amount of feed, fertilizer, seeds, etc., have been ordered at a material reduction in price, which should help to reduce the high cost of producing farm crops. BOALSBURG.

BELLEFONTE PEOPLE PREVENT APPENDICITIS. Many Bellefonte people are using simple glycerine, buckthorne, bark, etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka. This flushes BOTH upper and lower bowel so completely it removes all foul, ac- cumulated poisons from alimentary canal and prevents appendicitis. Adler-i-ka relieves ANY CASE gas on stomach or sour stomach. Often CURES constipation. In one case of chronic stomach trouble ONE bottle produced wonderful results.

During the influenza epidemic thou- sands of lives might have been saved by taking Bulgarian Blood Tea steam- ing hot, with the juice of half a lemon, at bedtime. Men, women and children can take this pure medicine for almost any sickness. Millions of people are taking it to fight off Colds, Grippe, Influenza and Pneumonta, to sweeten the stomach, clean out the bowels, open up the liver, flush the poisons from the kidneys and purify and en- rich the blood. No medicine that we know of is as good as Bulgarian Blood Tea. Itshould be in every home, ready for father if he comes home with a bad cold or feels sick; mother can give it to the little children, it keeps. them healthy; and mother, upon whose ghoulders the try- ing care of the home falls, will find that this rare medicinal tea will drive away those sick headaches and keep her in good health.

Crowds to the huge proportions that look in on football in England and America will be watching base- ball before many seasons, if the plans of the New York club owners are car- ried out. The Yankees, who have been shar- ing the Polo grounds with the Giants for several seasons are about to build a home of their own. Last season the National League told Colonels Rupert and Huston that they weren't partic- ularly keen about continuing the pres- ent arrangement. ii The decision, however, merely has- tens the plans American League mag- nates had been entertaining, to get a big yard of their own. : The plans for the stadium are being drawn with the idea of providing a seating capacity of 80,000 spectators and construction of the sort that will make additions possible if necessary. The Polo grounds also are to be en- larged to seat about the same num- ber. The Giant owners are not as near to the completion of their plans, however, as the Yankee bosses, who probably will have the construction work started this summer to have the Plans ready for next season if possi- e. Baseball crowds long ago outgrew the capacity of the Polo grounds but the cost of material and labor has been so high in the past few seasons, that the club owners could not carry out any plans for improvements. Since the grounds are becoming more pop- ular as the battlefield for the big east- ern football teams, the need was also felt for a greater seating capacity. CENTRE HALL. W. A. Odenkirk made a flying trip to Philadelphia, leaving here on Tues- day. E. L. Bartholomew and family, of Altoona, visited with relatives over Sunday. : Mrs. L. L. Smith is now recovering rapidly, and her nurse was discharged on Tuesday. : Miss Grace Smith, who is suffering from throat trouble, is not improving as rapidly as her friends could wish. Miss Laura Runkle, who attended the “0. E. S.” banquet at Mifflinburg last Friday night, reports having had a very fine time. Grange hall on Tuesday evening was a and all report having had a good time. : Prof. N. L. Bartges, who went to Loganton on Saturday, was. snowed in and didn’t reach our town until Tuesday afternoon. As a result the High school did not have any sessions on Monday and Tuesday. i Mrs. Ruth Lambert West and little child returned to their home in New Jersey on Tuesday morning. Other passengers on the’ east-bound train the same morning were Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Lohr, of Rutledge, who had spent the week-end with relatives here. R. P. Odenkirk’s three daughters, from Lewistown and vicinity, came to Centre Hall last Thursday, to attend the funeral of Mrs. Amanda Kerr. The snow held them here until Tuesday when they were compelled to return home in’ the train by way of Tyrone. ——The Chinese government has concluded with a number of foreign banks a $4,000,000 famine loan.

In Times Like These A medicine: that costs only 5 Cents a Day or $1.50 a month, should be thought- fully considered.

Whatever may be the fortune of the zebras, which must drink at least once in every twenty-four hours, and there- for must keep in lion country, the gi- raffes have not all to maintain them- selves in such a life of terror. There are giraffes that never see a lion. All flesh-eaters must drink; but the gi- raffes of the North Kalahari Desert live for three parts of the year with- out water! There is a pretty adven- ture for you! Except in the rainy season, there is no water for the gi- raffe to drink, so he is for that period a total abstainer from liquid in the truest sense of the term. Of course, he gets moisture, but it is from the vegetation on which he lives. There is water deep down beneath the burn- ing sands, and the tree-roots reach it and suck it up into their leaves. But so far as a natural drink is concerned, our long-necked friend has none for three parts of the year. We should say, offhand, perhaps, that there is nothing else like this in nature; but that is wrong. The gua- naco of the Andes can very seldom drink. But there are thousands of do- mesticated animals which do not taste one drop of water throughout a snow- less, rainless winter. And that is in the British Empire, in the Anglo- Egyptian Sudan. There the herds- men have great flocks flocks of sheep and herds of camels which have to fol- low the season’s vegetation. From the middle of November to the middle of February they are moving about northern Kordofan, eating the winter grass, and there is no water for them. The herdsmen drink mainly the milk of the camels and the sheep, and small quantities of water brought from wells a week or ten days’ journey distant. The marvel is that, after this aston- ishing and trying adventure, the ani- mals return flourishing to kindlier conditions.—My Magazine. — Subscribe for the “Watchman.” MEDICAL.
