PLEASANT GAP.
The multitude of movers here were
disgusted with the weather conditions
the latter part of last week.
Mrs. Henry Twitmire took seriously
ill last week and was obliged to take
to her bed, suffering from an extreme-
ly bad cold and other complications.
Charles Rimmey, of Tusseyville,
who recently purchased the late Mrs.
Charlotte Eckenroth property from
Edward Zeigler, will take possession
in the near future.
Quite a bunch of ring necked pheas-
ants and quail will be liberated in the
neighborhood of James Crotzer’s
farm, adjacent to the mountain, the
latter part of this week.
Harry Hockenberry, of the Titan
Metal Co., has moved to the Gap and
expects to make this his future home.
William Keen, of Bellefonte, has mov-
ed into the Keen homestead here.
C. C. Baumgardner has purchased
the late Mrs. Catharine Baumgard-
ner’s cosy home on Main street and
took possession on April 3rd. He ex-
pects to make that his future home.
Orrin Hull, a practical blacksmith,
has leased the Noll Bros. blacksmith
shop and will proceed to business at
once. The stand is a good one and
commands a large scope of patronage.
Twenty-five of the substantial cit-
jzens of this community met at the
fire house last Saturday evening and
organized a game club. President
Pritchard, of the associated game
clubs of the State, was present, and
outlined the important work a well or-
ganized club could do in any commu-
nity in the way of game propagation
and protection. Our new club intends
to start right and keep right.
Little Miss Dorothy Crissman,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Crissman,
is still in the Bellefonte hospital
awaiting the time when she will be in
condition to be operated on for appen-
dicitis and other complications. She
has been in the hospital two weeks.
Miss Dorothy is a very bright, intel-
ligent child, and her many friends,
though alarmed, are hopeful that she
will be able to undergo the operation
successfully.
Many Democrats throughout the
county have endeavored to prevail up-
on our neighbor, ex-County Commis-
sioner W. H. Noll Jr., to run for the
Legislature, and while he fully appre-
ciates the compliment of their belief
in his ability to fill the office satisfac-
torily, he has declined to allow his
name to be used, as the demands on
his time by his large mercantile and
other business interests are too great
to permit of his again entering the
political arena.
I often think of the absurdity of
some parents, who have the audacity
of naming the profession that their
boys are expected to follow. They
don’t take into consideration as to
whether the profession appeals to
their offspring or not. If it don’t ap-
peal to them, then it is suicidal to the
youngster. If a boy is determined to
become a carpenter his anticipations
should be granted to him and in that
event he will surely succeed. If to
the contrary, he will surely prove a
failure. As an illustration: Years
ago a father took his son into the
presence of his school teacher and told
him, here’s my boy, I want you to
teach him to read, write and cypher;
he added, my boy is always fooling
with poetry and such foolish stuff.
‘The teacher said he would do the best
‘he could for the boy. The teacher
then proceeded to devotional exercises
as was his custom. The boy seemed
to take a great interest in what to him
was odd services. When through with
these exercises the boy arose and said:
“The old gray cat came down the rope,
“to say his morning prayers. The rea-
son that he did that, was because
there was no stairs.” Later on this
same boy became one of the greatest
poets of his day. His name was well
and favorably known all over the
world as J. Allen Poe. A gentle hint
.should be sufficient.
Sufficient exercise in the open air
to produce free but not copious pers-
piration, is one of the most efficient
means of freeing the system of effete
and poisonous matter. This is in re-
ality an air bath, and as such is more
effective in the elimination of many
deleterious substances than the water
or vapor bath. The exercise dislodg-
es the particles and they are carried

out with the. escaping fluids.. These
principles are embodied in the Turk-
ish and Russian bath, but are not so
well adapted to the purpose as when
applied in the manner prescribed by
nature. To insure good health and
comfort during summer, advantage
should be taken of the opportunities
afforded by nature to cleanse, repail
and strengthen the body. By so doing
the heat of mid-summer will be neith-
er oppressive nor debilitating, conse-
quently the liability to disease, either
contagious or otherwise, will be great-
ly lessened, while life will be rendered
more enjoyable, and the mind more
vigorous. There is nothing that con-
duces more to freshness of complex-
ion, brightness of eyes, fullness and
strength of body than the perfect
elimination of all vitiated fluids. If
our women could be made to realize
this fully, and to act’ accordingly,
there would be fewer sallow, languid
and scrawny ones to be seen. There
is too much dependence placed in the
efficacy of pills, potions and powders
and not enough in the means of health
prescribed by nature.
To get something for nothing is an
innate disposition in man. It proba-
bly belongs to, or is an outgrowth of,
the animal side of nature. Dogs de-
light in stealing that which has been
caught, rather than going out and
catching for themselves. The eagle
watches the fish-hawk until it makes
a catch, then pounces upon it. From
this it would appear that it is an ani-
mal, rather than intellectual quality,
of man’s higher intelligence and his
reasoning powers qualify him for in-
dulging this disposition more than the
lower order of animal life. A sensi-
ble person of even reasonable mortal
strength, will not be carried into a
vortex of sin that is in plain view.
There must be a weak spot some-
where. Those who strive to get some-
thing for nothing are equally lazy.
Tramps, beggars, bums and loafers,
are fair specimens. They feel that
the world owes them a living and they
propose to collect it with as little ef-
fort as possible. Another class are
those who think that it is easier to
speculate, peculate and cheat than to
earn by earnest toil and labor. Swin-
dlers, embezzlers and sharpers repre-
sent this class. It will be seen that
dishonesty is also one of the charac-
teristics of those who live by getting
something for nothing, consequently a
man must part with his real manhood
before he can begin to succeed in this
plan of living. The long distance
glasses of the philosopher are not nec-
essary to reveal the general demoral-
ization that awaits all such. A rea-
sonable recompense for the time spent
and risk taken by those who handle
goods for the accommodation of the
public is as legitimate and honest as
the hire of those who till the soil or
dig in the mines. Excessive profit,
when gained at the expense of the
toiling masses, is something obtained
without giving anything in return;
therefore, it must be classed with the
rest. - The power to charge excessive
profits does not make it right to do so.
