Franklinville the truck skidded to the
edge of a one hundred foot embank-
ment and a portion of their load of
twenty big, fat hogs was spilled out
in the snow, one of the animals suf-

fering a broken leg. After a lively

Southern Cypress Has Many Colors.
Southern bald cypress is about the
most variable in color of any of onr
native woods, and in different locali-
ties is known as red cypress, yellow
cypress, white cypress and black cy-
press. .
There is a rather prevalent belief
that cypress with dark colered heart-
wood is the most durable, but the opin-
jon of the United States forest pro-
ducts laboratory is that as far as dur-
ability is concerned the color of the
wood makes very little difference.
In service records obtained by the
laboratory, any difference in the length
of service of red cypress and yellow
cypress appears to be due entirely to a
difference in the amount of sapwood
in the timbers. Cypress trees with
light-colored heartwood usually have
more sapwood than those with dark
colored heartwood, and sapwood is not
resistant to decay.
The important thing, if durability is
desired, appears to be to select the
heartwood of cypress regardless of its
shade.
Majority and Plurality.
The candidate, who among several,
receives the highest number of votes,
is said to have a plurality amounting
to the difference between his vote and
that of the candidate receiving the
next highest number. If the vote of
the candidate is greater than the sum
of the votes cast for all other candl-
dates for the same office he has a
majority. A majority is more than
half, while a plurality may be much
less than half.
: Diagnosis.
“T hear that Tawkins is going to give
De Smart a pretty fat fee.”
“What for?”
“Because when the doc was called to
attend Mrs. Tawkins for a slight nerv-
ous trouble he told her she haw an
acute attack of inflammatory verbos-
ity. He then recommended absolute
quiet as the only means of averting
cacaothes loquendi. She's scared
dumb.”
Kidney Trouble.
Mr. John Kingcaid, of 439 Allen St., Al-
lentown, Pa., suffered for ten long years
with kidney trouble, before he found Gold-
ine No. 2 and relief. He said:
“About ten years
ago I noticed I had
to get up during
the night more oft-
en than I should. I
became gradually
worse until I was
getting up very oft-
en every night. My
back was lame and
sore and my legs,
from the knees
down, would get
shaky and trembly.
I tried to find a
medicine that would help me, but nothing
did and in the meantime the pain in my
back was getting worse and worse. Then
1 heard of Goldine and what it had done
for others, so I got a bottle of Goldine No.
2. It helped me almost immediately; the
pains left my back and I didn’t have to get
up nearly as often in the night. I'm going
to keep taking it.”

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 1
could hardly get around. My kidneys
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 began 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 is the best kidney medi-
cine 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 for-
mer statement.”

no more pain in back of head or gas
on stomach since using Adler-i-ka.
