Country Correspondence Items of Interest Dished Up for the Delectation of “Watchman” Read- ers by a Corps of Gifted Correspondents. PLEASANT GAP. Merrill Moyer and wife are now lo- cated in their new home. Samuel Noll and Ward Hile spent Sunday in New York city. Mrs. John Herman caught seventeen sun fish while in Pennsvalley a week ago. : Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Jodon spent a day among friends at Howard, a few days ago. Miss Anderson, of Winburne, spent the week-end at the home of E. W Sommers. Mrs. Frank Keen visited last week with her daughter, Mrs. Boyd Scholl, of Bellefonte. Dr. Ray Melroy and wife returned ome Saturday, after a week’s visit in White Haven. Contractor Harry Bilger and his es- timable wife spent a few days recent- ly, at Mifflinburg. Did it ever occur to the reader that the man who gives you something for nothing, is after something for noth- ing. Mr. and Mrs. J. Cline Grenoble visit- ed last week with their daughter, Mrs. R. S. Sterrett, of DuBois, Clearfield county. Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Fetterhoff, ac- companied by Mrs. Maggie Rauden- bush, spent last Sunday with Mrs. Rachel Noll. The Loyal Workers of the Lutheran church will hold an ice cream social in their church on Memorial day. All are cordially invited. The sewing circle was entertained at the home of Mrs. Edgar Sommers, Thursday evening, May 5th. The at- tendance was quite gratifying. Miss Bertha Rimmey will graduate as a nurse on the 27th of May, at the Pollyclinic hospital, Philadelphia. Miss Bertha is a talented young lady and will no doubt make good in her new profession. Jack Noll says Henry Ford’s candi- dacy for the Senate was a joke; but Newberry’s expenditure in that cam- paign was a political scandal. The court has decided that it wasn’t a crime; and there can be no doubt that the intelligence of the country believes it ought to be made a crime. Dean C. Miller, of Woodlawn, Bea- ver county, son of Leslie Miller, is vis- iting his aunt, Mrs. John T. Noll. He expects to remain at the Gap for an indefinite time. The youngster is a very bright and interesting kid, “a chip of the old block,” as it were. He is the very picture of his father. He walks, talks and in every particular is a second edition of his Dad. One-half of the American popula- tion have not the remotest idea how much a billion really is. It is a col- lossal amount. When we take into consideration that a billion minutes ave not as yet elapsed since Christ was crucified. This fact incidentally puts people to thinking and possibly to figuring. Just think over this fact, Uncle Sam is wealthy; we have over ten billions due us from foreign coun- tries. Even that is insignificant so long as they fail to pay the interest thereon. Mr. Harris, a promising young stu- dent of State College, filled the vacant pulpit of the Lutheran church here last Sabbath, and will do likewise two weeks hence. The young man made a very favoable impression on his audi- ence. He is never so ecstatic as to lose his head among the clouds. He is a teacher of taste and judgment, whose well-balanced mind is controlled by common sense and judgment, the kind of individual who is bound to ‘make his mark at an early day. He be- stows on his fellow-men the advantag- es of his learning and culture, his ex- perience and eloquence, his talents and his genius. Rev. Piper, of the Methodist church, held Mother’s day services on Sunday evening. The service was opened by singing, and our choir seemed to be at their best. After the singing three most excellent recitations were ren- dered, suitable for the occasion. Misses Helen Noll, Henrietta Gettig and Mary Hile were the speakers, and they all acquitted themselves admira- bly well, after which Rev. Piper preached a most excellent sermon. Our minister is never dull, and his hearers never seem to be tired when he speaks. On this important occa- sion our distinguished divine deliver- ed one of the most interesting and well-balanced addresses ever deliver- ed in the Methodist church here. The modest christian minister always seeks in every way to proclaim the Gospel of “peace on earth and good- will to mankind.” Of course his top- ic was as broad as the universe. How little do we appreciate a mother’s ten- derress while living! But when she is dead and gone—when the cares and coldness of the world come withering into our hearts—when we know how hard it is to find true sympathy, how few love us for ourselves, how few will befriend us in our misfortunes, then it is that we think of the mother that we have lost. How all-powerful, for good or evil, is the influence of a mother! During the hours of infancy, passed in unavoidable seclusion, when the affections and mental powers can be molded into any form by the plas- tic hand of matenal love, then it is that the bent is taken for weal or woe, which all future life cannot alter. The father, whether he holds a public sta- tion, or in private capacity, sees but little and at distant intervals, of his children, and has hardly time to sa- lute them. But the mother, for whom domestic life has a charm, exercises over them an influence proportionate to her good sense and attachment to the idols of her heart. Omnipotent, though imperceptible. Were the af- fections of the mother felt and cher- ished by her children with correspond- ing sympathy, doubtless this earth would exhibit much more of heaven than at present. A mother teaching her child to pray is an object at once the most sublime and tender that the imagination can conceive. Forget not then the sorrows of your dear moth- er. “He that is obedient unto the Lord will be a comfort to his mother.” ORVISTON. Mrs. Ira Condo is visiting her mother, Mrs. Mary Archey, at Mack- eyville. Mrs. Harry Eesright and little daughter Eva, who have both been very ill, are much improved. William Lucas motored to Belle- fonte to see Walter L. Main’s show. Just to be real nice he took Mrs. Lu- cas and the children, Celia and Geo., and Miss Josephine Poorman. They report a good time. Miss Hazel M. Walker, who used to be an Orviston a and was one of our prettiest and most popular young ladies, is here from her home at Port Matilda. She is staying at the home * | of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Gray. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Redfield, of Harrisburg, are visiting at the home of Mr. Redfield’s sister, Mrs. Walter T. Merrick. Orviston folks who at- tended divine services on Mother's day were entertained by a beautiful solo rendered by Mrs. Redfield, who possesses one of those rare “organ toned” voices. It was certainly appre- ciated by those who love geed music. Orvistonians are greatly interested in chicken raising just now. Some of our embryo “chicken millionaires sent away for day old chicks and some were nice, and others not quite so, but the most are pretty fair. Now if ma- rauding cats and evil minded rats will. be so kind as to pay attention to each other in the game of “I gotcha” and “nuthin’ doin’ ” and let the chickens alone, Gil, Newt and Louie will be ever so much obliged. Hensyl Young, Mrs. Hume and the Slaterbeck family are depending on the “Old Cluck” method, and so far are pretty success- ful. Hensyl has a dandy flock of yel- low Leghorns, every chick as healthy as can be and a large percentage of young hens. The friends of Mrs. Gilbert Gilles- pie surprised her Friday ‘evening by catching her at the ironing board, as busy as could be, and they surrounded her and hiked the board out of sight. The occasion was Mrs. Gillespie's birthday. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Gillespie, Mr. and Mrs. New- ton Cameron, Mr. and Mrs. Wentzel, Mr. and Mrs. James Delaney, Mr. and Mrs. Ola Cyphert, Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Klinger, Mr. and Mrs. George Bixel, Mr. and Mrs. William Lucas, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Shank, Mr. and Mrs. Alva Confer, Mr. and Mrs. Hensyl Young, Mrs. Marian Nicpling, of Clyde, N. Y.; Mrs. Ame- lia Rickard, Mrs. Joseph Wagner, Mrs. J. Fred Young, Mrs. Bion Nel- son, Mrs. Frank DeLong, Mrs. Ammon Miller, Mrs. Wm. Poorman, Mrs. Chris Page, Mrs. Carl Brown, Mrs. John Hume Sr, Misses Beulah Holter, Margaret and Velma Poorman, Kath- ryn Miller, Florence Barner, Charlotte High, Relda, Dorothea and Helen Young, Lois Confer, Alice Klinger, Mary Bixel, Sara Miller, Gertrude Poorman, Celia Lucas, Lillian, Edith, Sara, Helen and Ruth Gillespie. Har- ry Saunders, Edwin and Wm. Gilles- pie, Clair Poorman, LeRoy and Wm. Cyphert, Joseph Confer, Allen Kling- er, Charles Poorman and Harvey Young. A splendid time was had by all, the evening being spent in games and music. A lunch was served and enjoyed amid jolly conversation. Mrs. Gillespie received many nice tokens of friendship. Every one wished her many happy returns. BOALSBURG. Nevin Fisher is caring for a broken arm, the result of a fall while playing. Boalsburg was well represented at the circus in Bellefonte on Monday. A number of young men from town are employed in the Bellefonte silk mill. The Joint consistory of the Reform- ed church held a meeting on Saturday afternoon. Miss Margaret Snyder visited friends in Bellefonte from Saturday until Tuesday. Mrs. James Kleckner, of Mifflin- burg, is visiting her cousin, Mrs. Amanda Fisher. N. J. Rishel, of Oak Hall, who has been ill the past winter, was in town for a short time on Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Lonebarger and family, of State College, were over Sunday visitors at the home of D. Ww. Meyer. Mr. and Mrs. daughter, Miss Mary, were visitors at the home on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. William Steele and son and Mrs. daughter, of Axe Mann, were guests of A. J. Hazel and family on Sunday. Willard Dale and of Bellefonte, Coxey-Ishler MEDICAL. The Proper Course Information of Priceless Value to Every , Bellfonte Citizen. How to act in an emergency is knowledge of inestimable worth, and this is particularly true of the diseas- es and ills of the human body. If you suffer with kidney backache, urinary disorders, or any form of kidney trouble, the advice contained in the following statement should add a valuable asset to your store of knowl- edge. What could be more convinc- ing proof of the efficiency of Doan’s Kidney Pills than the statement of a Bellefonte citizen who used them and who publicly tells of the benefit de- rived ? Mrs. L. A. Hill, E. Bishop St., says: “I am bothered by backache occasion- ally, but I keep Doan’s Kidney Pills in the house and the benefit I derive from their use is very gratifying.” _ Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Hill had. - Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. | 66-19 Oscar | Calvin Gfrerer and AARONSBURG.

Stover’s cousin, Miss Jennie Beaver, of Milroy. Miss Beaver has been in poor health for a number of years and her death came as a great relief from her long suf- fering. Samuel Boyer, who was quite un- fortunate one day last week in having his horse become frightened by an en- gine, throwing him down. The horse stepped on his chest and a shaft of the wagon struck his side, causing him quite a bit of suffering but so far as known no bones are broken, and he is able to walk. Rev. R. H. Dotterer, of State Col- lege, on Sunday administered the Lord’s Supper at Salem in the morn- ing and in the Reformed church here at 2:30 p. m. A goodly number of people came out, even though said service conflicted with the regular church service in the United Evangel- ical church, which many were sorry to be unable to attend. Rev. Doterer delivered a splendid sermon in which was much to consider in our daily life. Rev. Jacob Stover, who has retired from the active ministry in the Luth- eran church and become a resident of this place, was in the pulpit and offer- ed a beautiful prayer, which so earn- estly carried out the thought of the scripture lesson. LEMONT. Mrs. Andrew Dale returned from Buffalo last week. The apple crop, in these parts, looks as if it would be fair. Some of the children near town are suffering with the mumps. C. A. Houtz came down from Flem- | jg, Manday; to see his mother, who is ill. Many people from this neighbor- hood attended the circus in Bellefonte on Monday. Much of the oats is up and looks good and many of the farmers have planted some corn. Samuel Evey came up from Florida, last week, to the home of his brother, | f E. W. Evey, near town. The rains have put the ground in fine trim and this warm weather is bringing all vegetation along. Mrs. B. F. Hoy, who-has been con- fined to her bed for seven weeks, is not improving much, if any at all. Mother's day services were observ- ed at the Methodist and United Breth- ren churches on Sunday, and the at- || tendance was good. o o Z0 ~ Z NS = + YY TN [Hv PN IN A man owes it to his friends and to himself to dress well. father or brother are you are well dressed.
