Last Thursday Mrs. George Moth- ersbaugh entertained at her home at Boalsburg her two daughters, Mrs. Ivan Swartz, of Hublersburg, and Mrs. Ruth Gearhart.

Ingram farm, located near the Spruce Creek club, and which is regarded as one of the best and most desirable in that locality. The farm has been in the Ingram name for more than a century and both buildings and land have always been kept in good condition. While Mr. Griffin has been confined to the Bellefonte hospital with illness his neighbors organized a party and overran his cornfield from beginning to end, but inasmuch as the party was a husking bee and the members there- of husked and housed his crop of 1500 bushels of corn, the Griffin family are duly grateful for the invasion. In the rush of automobilists getting away from State College last Satur- day evening, at 6 o’clock, three cars crashed together on the Miller curve below town. Two cars escaped dam- age but a big car from Pittsburgh was badly wrecked. None of the occu- pants, however, were injured and they passed the time at the St. Elmo until their car was fixed up at the Stuck & Kline garage. It was eleven o’clock when they pulled out for the west. Last Thursday evening the degree team of Pennsvalley Lodge No. 276, I. 0. 0.

PLEASANT GAP. It is not what you think, but what others think of you, that fixes your value. It’s your own fault if dogs and tramps come to see you the second time. Merchant tailor Divinney, of State College, has leased the Frank Weaver premises, just vacated by the Hart- lines; they expect to occupy the same December 1st. The resumption of the coal business is showing good effects here. The Mec- Nitt Lumbering Co. is busily engaged in shipping mining props to various parts of mining centres. Electrician Albee, of the peniten- tiary, has leased the Mrs. Miles Zim- merman home. Mrs. Zimmerman ex- pects to move to the far west with a view of making the slope of the Rocky mountains her future home. She will be the companion of a well-to-do sis- er. Mrs. Harry Hartline had a partial sale of odds and ends of household goods on Saturday last. A long dis- tance moving van arrived here Tues- day morning and transported their ef- fects to Berwick, their future home. The entire community regretted to lose this good family as neighbors. Mrs. Jeremiah Swartz, of Somerset, is visiting her brother, James Noll, and incidentally is calling on a num- ber of her old-time friends. Mrs. Swartz moved to Somerset some twen- ty years ago, and this is her first visit back to the Gap since leaving here. Their many friends are glad to en- tertain her, and she is delighted with her sojourn. As predicted the South precinct of Spring township polled a very light vote at the recent election; out of 607 votes registered only 267 were polled. The registry recorded was, 310 Re- publican, 243 Democratic, 3 Socialist, 5 Prohibition and 46 no party. An unusual lack of enthusiasm prevailed. Out of a registration of three hundred women less than seventy voted. Capital, although the product of la- bor, affords labor employment; and for this gains dignity; what it looses in order of importance. Let neither despise the other. Always remember that humanity is the same with a few exceptions—impelled more by selfish than disinterested motives, and that the desire of the laborer for $4.00, who is making but $2.00, and that of the milionaire with one million, for two million is just the same; and that the latter reaps no more satisfaction. His worry to keep it is equal to the poor man’s to get it, for after all we are so conditioned and limited that the keeping within the bounds of temper- ance, is the real source of happiness; and the poor man’s two and four dol- lars, will purchase all the enjoyments without any of the temptations of in- temperance that much money often leads to. If you feel that you are falling be- hind, and that you cannot support your apparent standing in society, drop your hangers on, for that’s what they will do with you presently; for rats will desert a sinking ship. You need not care about their feelings; what we consider as other people’s feelings are more our own feelings, and this step will likely be a greater punishment to your pride than it would be to their feelings, and you have possibly mistaken the one for the other. It is easier to get them back again than it is to get rid of them. Fish will follow a good bait and dogs will cluster about the meat- market. Some people think it quite an honor to be countenanced by the well-to-do. So dispense with them now, and when you regain your for- tunes if you wish to lavish your mon- ey upon them, you can easily have them back again. RUNVILLE. W. T. Kunes spent Friday at Beech Creek. E. R. Lucas, of Altoona, spent Sun- day at the home of L. J. Heaton. Mr. and Mrs. Elias Hancock are vis- iting at Wingate, at the home of John Smith.

The famous redwood sequoia, the “big trees” of California are to be saved as a matter of good business. What is said to be the most important step on the part of private lumbering companies toward the preservation of the nation’s timber supply was an- nounced by the National Lumber Man- ufacturers’ Association, the Union Lumber company, the Pacific Lumber company, and the Mendocino Lumber company, the principal private comni- panies owning the California redwood forests, have agreed hereafter to con- duct their lumbering operations on the principle of continuous production and maintenance of the forests as a whole. This decision, says a statement of the national association, means that the redwood forests, made up of the largest trees extant, and the oldest living things, the sequoia of the sem- pervivens species, will be maintained indefinitely as an economic factor in the life of the nation and as one of the wonders of America. The method of preservation of the forests, it is understood, includes cut- ting ‘of lumber in more scattered stands, while every precaution is tak- en against ground and high fires, and reforestation will follow upon the steps of the cutters. Ample areas of the forest will be preserved forever in the same state of aged maturity as they have been ever since the coming of the white man and possibly for thousands of years be- fore. The State of California has bought areas of these forests for parks, and the lumbermen themselves have donated areas bordering much- traveled roads. The redwood region should not be confused with that of the Sierra se- quoias which are not numerous enough to be of any great importance it is said. It consists of a narrow strip of land along the northern coast of Cal- ifornia and overlapping into Oregon, which is never more than twenty-five miles wide. It covers about 1,300,000 acres, of which only about one-third has been cut over, the remainder being virgin. The total amount of standing timber is estimated at between 60,- 000,000,000 and 75,000,000,000 feet, of which 85 per cent. is redwood. Many of these trees are more than 1000 years old; some have been cut that are authentically known to have been 1373 years of age, and some may be as old as 2000 years. At the pres- ent rate of cutting, about 600,000,000 feet a year, the stand is expected to last about a century. The redwood is among the most in- teresting of the tree family. Although one of the longest living things the redwood grows very rapidly and at- tains a height of 150 to 200 feet with a diameter of 3 feet in the first fifty years. The stands often run to 110,- 000 feet to the acre. Mature trees at- tain a height of 350 feet—as high as a thirty-story building—and a diam- eter of 25 feet. It is very persistent, highly fire re- sistant, and especially adapted to re- growth because it reproduces from sprouts, from stumps and from roots. Tt has been found practically impossi- ble to exterminate the tree except where agriculture is maintained, and little of its habitat is said to be suit- able for farming. The tree has no very destructive insect or fungus en- emies, and decays very slowly. As lumber it possesses some qualities which make it highly prized. It is slow burning and strongly resistent to decay. It is soft and easily worked, finishes well with a pleasing color and grain and has an agreeable fragrauce. Corn Show to be Greatest Event of Kind Ever Held in the East. The greatest corn show ever held in the eastern section of the United States will be staged in Harrisburg in connection with the seventh annual State farm products show, the fourth week in January. Last year more than 12,000 ears of corn were entered in the show while arrangements have been made for a display at least twenty-five per cent. larger for the coming show. The competitive districts of the State have been carefully revised for the coming year. Five classes will be provided and the State has been divid- ed with due regard to climatic, as well as topographical conditions. Corn grown in sections of the State where the growing season is only ninety days or less, will not be forced to com- pete against corn grown in sections where the growing season is from 120 to 150 days. The State has produced an unusual corn crop this year and it is believed that the corn show will excel any- MEDICAL. A Bellefonte Man Gives Evidence His Testimony Will Interest Every Bellefonte Reader. The value of local evidence is indis- putable. It is the kind of evidence we accept as true because we know we can prove it for ourselves. There has been plenty of such evidence in the Bellefonte papers lately, and this straightforward testimony has estab- lished a confidence in the minds of Bellefonte people that will not be eas- ily shaken. Joseph Alters, carpenter, 310 E. Bishop St., Bellefonte, says: “I suf- fered for a long time with backache and kidney complaint. My back ached so badly I could hardly keep on the job. It was hard for me to do heavy lifting or sawing. My kidneys acted too often at times and the secretions were scanty and highly colored. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills from the Parrish Pharmacy and they helped me so much I kept on using them. My back is now well and strong and I am free from the trouble.” Price 60c¢, at all dealers. Don’t sim- ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that | Mr. Alters had. Foster-Milburn Co. | Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. 67-45 More attention will also be given this year to the display of small grains and county agents in all sections of Pennsylvania are now arousing inter- est among the grain growers so that this exhibit will be considerably larg- er than that of last January. Tight Wrist Watch Warning. Be careful not to bind the strap of your wrist watch too tight. Several cases of neuritis in the fingers and hands have been traced to this cause. Dr. John S. Stopford tells in the Lan- cet of a student who experienced ting- ling pains along the inner borders of the hand and in the little finger. These had persisted for some time and caus- ed discomfort and anxiety. On exam- ination a tender point was discovered on the dorsal surface of the styloid process of the ulna, and pressure In this situation caused pain to radiate from this point into the dorsal cuta- neous branch of the ulnar nerve. There was no sign of paresis or atrophy of any of the intrinsic muscles of the hand, nor were any trophic changes found. On investigating a cause for this localized neuritis the only possi- bility appeared to be the wearing of a tight wristlet watch, which clearly could produce compression of the dor- sal cutaneous branch of the ulnar nerve as it curved round the lower ex- tremity of the ulna. On discarding the wristlet the discomfort gradually disappeared. 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.
