i RR,
Americans Write Shorter
Than Formerly.
Letters
Americans are writing shorter let-
ters. ;
This statement was confirmed by |
comparative figures made by the Post-
office Department upon the weight of
the average letter that goes through
the mail. :
Back in 1907 on the average there
were forty pieces of first-class mail
to every pound.
Now the data shows that there are
forty-five pieces of first-class mail to
every pound. This means that the
weight of the average letter is less
and therefor shorter. ;

Our Whiterock quarries are forging
ahead nicely; there is, however, a
shortage of men so that they are ham-
pered somewhat. The orders for their
product are almost beyond their ca-
pacity, the necessary men not being
available. A first-class product re-
quires no recommendation. The
Whiterock lime has few equals and no
superiors, hence the demand.
All kinds of garden truck is being
eliminated from the gardens. About
all that is left is cabbage, which, by
the way, thrives best after the frosts
materialize. Next in order is that of
housing the apple crop. Apples are
falling at a frightful rate, in conse-
quence of which our orchardists will
pick the fruit about two weeks earlier
than is customary. Where spraying
HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA.
The Economy of
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
Appeals to every family in these
days. From no other medicine can you
get so much real medicinal effect as
from this. It is a highly concentrated
extract of several valuable medicinal
ingredients, pure and wholesome. The
dose is small, only a teaspoonful three
times a day.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a wonderful
tonic medicine for the blood, stom-
ach, liver and kidneys, prompt in giv-
ing relief. It is pleasant to take,
agreeable to the stomach, gives a
thrill of new life. Why not try i :
terest them, you avail in retaining
was neglected apples will lack keep- | strike. People resorted to wood burn-
ing quality.
Never exhaust yourself in trying to |
entertain your friends, for they, like |
you, will relish best something new, |
and not having it, the next time you
will be a complete failure, to their
complete disgust; whereas, if you suc-
ceed the second and third times, to in-
their favor, and also your own confi-
dence, that you can do as well again.
Does Prohibition prohibit? We
might as well ask, do bootleggers
prosper? Recent statistics scarcely
justify the enormous outlay of the
millions expended by our government
for the maintenance of the army of
men employed in an effort to stop the
sale of intoxicating liquors. The pro-
duction of industrial alcohol in the
Keystone State alone jumped from
4000 gallons last January to 175000 in
August. I will not attempt to answer
the above queries but will submit them
to the public for consideration under
existing circumstances.
Some people are worrying about the
coal situation, when, in fact, there is
not the least cause for alarm. Fron:
present indications anthracite and bi-
tuminous coal will be a drug on the
market three months hence. Hungry!
men find it wise to hustle, and many
of our miners are hungry, caused by
the recent uncalled for idleness. The
production of coal from the numerous
mines in the country during the week
ending last Saturday, is by geologic- !
al survey estimated at 10,500,000 tons.
Of this vast production bituminous |
yielded 9,500,000, and something like |
950,000 tons of anthracite. Now then,
the consumption of coal among the
consumers was fifty per cent. less dur-
ing the recent trouble than before the |
ing in a great many instances, from
compulsion, and many will give pref-
erence to wood instead of coal, simply
because they find it cheaper and they
| have become acclimated to the enfore-
ed change. There is an abundance of
wood in sight. Greens valley alone
has sufficient excellent hard wood to Office in
supply all of Bellefonte for five years.
When our neighbor, Will Noll pur-
chased the A. V. Miller estate farm
he acquired enough of stove wood
along the Nittany mountain to Gill-
town to supply every family in Pleas-
ant Gap for ten years. No use of
shouting before you are hurt. The
coal producers and the miners will
evenutally be the greatest sufferers.

Among all motor car manufacturers,
Nash alone builds all the roller bear-

These bearings have been subjected to
