PLEASANT GAP.
Ray Wakeland, of West Virginia,
was a guest at the Crumlish home last
Friday.
Butcher Lex is ornamenting his
beautiful little park, adjacent to his
meat market; he is an unusually in-
dustrious individual. :
Dr. Shelly, our popular old town
doctor, was a visitor at the Gap last
Sunday. He has muny friends here
who regretted his brief stay.
Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Noll and wife
were in Philadelphia over Sunday last,
making hurried calls among their nu-
merous friends and relatives in that
city.
Mrs. Lewis, who has been seriously
ill for some time, is slightly improv-
ing; in fact, is about as well as can
be expected under the trying circum-
stances. :
T. BE. Jodon, our cattle buyer, left
on Monday for the stock yards in
Philadelphia with a car load of choice,
fresh Holstein cows. He says the mar-
ket is a little slow, prices lacking ani-
mation.
The celebration of children’s birth-
days and other anniversaries by
means of parties is a pleasant custom
and one worthy of observance. Such
red-letter days are long remembered
by the little ones.
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Noll motored
to Williamsport last Sunday to take in
the sights. While there they called
on Dick Knoffsinger, who is a patient
in the hospital, and report his condi-
tion as improving gradually.
Nothing remains in our gardens ex-
cept cabbage, and the crop is by no
means prolific. The intense heat and
dry weather has stopped the growth,
and the outside leaves are drying up,
while many heads are bursting, hence
many gardeners are already putting
away the crop.
Mr. and Mrs. Ammon Kerstetter
and Mrs. Harold Kerstetter, accom-
panied by Mr. and Mrs. Orey Barner,
of State College, spent Saturday and
Sunday at their hunting camp in the
Seven mountains. Half of their pop-
ulation are eagerly awaiting the time
when the hunting season opens.
Some unscrupulous flim-flammer
either intentionally or purposely
passed an Italian 20 cent piece for a
nickle on your correspondent a few
days ago. The two coins have a dis-
tinct resemblance. I may take a run
over to Italy between now and the
Holidays to find a market for the
same.
Our postoffice was flooded with
postal cards on Monday last with con-
gratulations on the occasion of the
50th anniversary (golden wedding) of
our esteemed former neighbors, Mr.
and Mrs. Jasper N. Brooks, now per-
manently located at Altoona. The in-
cident showed the high esteem that
lingers hereabouts for these good peo-
ple.
J. D. Herman and wife motored to
Philadelphia on Saturday last with a
view of calling on their numerous
friends and incidentally do a little
shopping on the side. As a matter of
course they stopped at the half way
city, Harrisburg, for a brief stay.
Their time being limited, they return-
ed home Monday night. The ’Squire
says the stay was rather brief but
they worked overtime, and had a jolly
good trip.
Betty Griffith and Henry Showers,
two of our school pupils were won-
derfully excited on Sunday when they
observed a monster snake heading its
way toward the Wolford gardens.
After the alarm was sounded Mrs.
Griffith and Mrs. Ed Mulfinger hit
the trail, his snakeship making good
his escape. Sam Noll says the trailers
reminded him of the men who are con-
stantly hunting for work and at the
same time praying that they can’t find
it.
Did you ever notice how many phys-
jcally imperfect persons there are?
If not, you will be surprised when you
come to investigate the matter. The
first thing you will probably notice
will be the great number of lop-
shoulders. It may be safely asserted
that fully one-half the men you meet
on the street either lean to one side
or have one shoulder lower than the
other. Various causes have been as-
signed for this, but the most general-

ly accepted theory is that it is due to
the character of the labor performed.
Either lifting heavy weights with the
right hand, handling heavy tools or
carrying loads will have a tendency to
incline the body to that side.
On Wednesday evening Ralph Noll
was greatly surprised by a number of
friends, who arranged a party on the
occasion of his birthday. His real
birthday was last Saturday, but un-
fortunately Ralph and wife left that
day for Philadelphia. Some even go
so far as to say that the trip east was
a put up job. However, not to be side-
tracked, the date was changed and
proved a very enjoyable occasion. The
participants were, Mr. and Mrs Fred
Witmer, of Bellefonte; Mr. and Mrs.
Harold Kerstetter, Mr. and Mrs. Sam
Noll and son, Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Grif-
fith and daughter Betty, and Mr. and
Mrs. H. J. Crumlish, and Billy. The
evening will long be remembered by
all those present. Ralph was in the
height of his glory. After a magnifi-
cent lunch was annihilated all repaired
to their homes delighted and happy.
As a rule a woman is just as proud
of her feet as her face. I know some
ladies whose only sorrow is their feet.
I could tell you a whole lot about
women and their peculiarities, but it
would be a violation of professional
etiquette. Ladies are more sensitive
about their feet than men, but they
used to have the advantage in being
able to hide them more effectually.
If a man has an ugly foot he is com-
pelled to show it, and if he is pigeon-
toed he can’t hide it. If, perchance,
his foot is neat and small he is par-
ticular to give it prominence, even if
Le has to stick it up on the bus seat,
dangle it over the side of the chair or
make some remark to call attention to
it when in company. A predisposition
of the same defect of body and temper
is likely to be transmitted to posteri-
ty. There is no telling what it may
lead to, or where it may end. On the
score of vanity men have but little ad-
vantage of the women, although they
pretend to be indifferent as to their
forms, features or personal appear-
ance. It is only pretense when a man
says he doesn’t care what people think
of him, nor how he dresses. He may
lack taste in dress, but he is never
thoroughly indifferent to it.

Harrisburg, Pa.—The State Forest-
ry Department can use money re-
ceived from individual subscribers on
telephone lines constructed by the
chief forest fire warden to pay annu-
al attachment charges, according to an
opinion of the attorney general’s de-
partment.
The surplus accruing from these
rentals can be used in keeping lines
in repair. Department officials say
they believe it would add to efficien-
cy of the lines to have subscribers at-
tached to them.

Plenty of Proof
From People You Know—From
Bellefonte Citizens.
The greatest skeptic can hardly
fail to be convinced by evidence like
this. It is impossible to produce bet-
ter proof of merit than the testimony
of residents of Bellefonte, of people
who can be seen at any time. Read
the following case of it:
Charles Nighthart, 331 E. Bishop
St., Bellefonte, says: “I became run
down with kidney trouble and felt
tired and worn out in the morning. I
could hardly get to work. There was
a steady, dull ache across my back and
when I stooped or lifted, sharp catch-
es took me just over my kidneys. I
also had dizzy spells and the action
of my kidneys was irregular. Iheard
of Doan’s Kidney Pills helping others
and I bought some at the Mott Drug
Co. They strengthened my back and
kidneys.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t sim-
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mr. Nighthart had. Foster-Milburn
Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. 67-39
Thought It Was a Race.
The plaintiff, a voluble Italian,
English would permit.
Looking down at the official repor-
ter, the Italian noticed for the first
time that his testimony was being re-
duced to writing (the reporter was
trying his best to keep up), and there-
upon began to talk faster than ever,
until finally he burst forth:
“Don’t writ-a so fast; I can’t keep
up with you.”
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 ? 55
