PLEASANT GAP.
It takes a smart man to rear a
structure, but any fool can tear it
down.
Does statesmanship consist in the
representation of private and section-
al interests ? If so, our Congress seems
to be equal for the occasion. ”
The Misses Miller, Elizabeth and
Margaret, two very interesting daugh-
ters of Mr. and Mrs. Sumner Miller,
of State College, spent a few days
among their many friends here.
The Billy Hoover Sunday school
class held a New Year’s party at the
home of Walter Dunklebarger on Fri-
day evering last. A most congenial
time was indulged in. The happy
event will long be remembered by all
participants.
Among our sick people during the
holidays were Mr. William Noll Jr,
who was afflicted with a severe attack
of rheumatism. Samuel Noll was
housed up with an old-fashioned at-
tack of la-grippe; Mrs. Belle Keen
and Mrs. Viola Dunklebarger were
also indisposed, but happily all are re-
cuperating and apparently out of dan-
ger.
It is not best to trifle with truth.
When you repeat something which
some one has told you, be careful to
give it the same meaning as the one
who imparted the information. Some
people like to add just a little sensa-
tional touch to whatever they repeat.
They imagine it gives “pep.” Satis-
fy your vanity in some other way than
perverting the truth.
James Tate, a progressive con-
tractor, of New York, after an ab-
sence from home for thirteen years,
agreeably surprised his mother, Mrs.
Potter Tate, and sister Verda, by
dropping into his former home a few
days before Christmas, remaining
here until Tuesday last when, on ac-
count of pressure of business, he was
obliged to return to New York.
John Mulbarger, one of the White-
rock employees, met with a very ser-
ious accident while at work in the
quarries the other day. He was stand-
ing by the side of a large rock when
another stone weighing several hun-
dred pounds was loosened and caught
the unfortunate man’s leg, crushing
it. He is suffering intense pain, but
from last reports it is thought that
amputation of the leg will not be nec-
essary.
The Pleasant Gap sportsman’s club
held another shooting match adjacent
to their hall on Christmas day, which
proved a decided success. Two pigs,
a flock of turkeys, geese, ducks, and
chickens were contested for. Quite a
number of outside parties from Belle-
fonte, State College and Centre Hall,
participated, some excellent marks-
men being among the number. The
sharp-shooting of fifty years ago was
in evidence.
Whenever a woman is found outside
her sphere; whenever she assumes the
place of man and makes him her coni-
plement, then she is abnormal. There
is no special law against a woman be-
ing abnormal in character any more
than there is in her being abnormal in
appearance. It is abnormal for her to
have whiskers, or masculine features.
It is important that woman should
be thoroughly acquainted with all the
details of domestic life if she expects
to be successful in it.
The Gentre county delegation from
Philadelphia were well well represent-
ed at the Gap during the holidays.
Among the number were Paul Keller,
wife and daughter, John Herman and
wife, and Miss Emeline Noll. Among
this number Paul Keller, Miss Eme-
line Noll and John Herman hold lucra-
tive positions in the Broad Street of-
fices of the P. R. R., in Philadelphia,
and all are apparently making good;
a pleasure and satisfaction to their
many friends and admirers here.
The extensive MecNitt lumbering
company is showing signs of activi-
ty. Within the past three months the
finished product of Mr. MecNitt has
found a ready market. Their railroad
ties and mining props have about all
been shipped and this week a number
of workmen are beginning to demolish
the forests, which is a God-send to
the laboring community. Unfortu-
nately the firm is at a loss to secure a
sufficiency of men to supply the de-

mand. The firm is a progressive one,
and it is to be hoped that they will in
time be able to secure sufficient help
to fully carry out their extensive an-
ticipations.
Talk about elaborate feasts and su-
perlative good eats! Mrs. John Her-
man, cur good neighbor, should be en-
titled to the belt in this particular.
She had twenty-nine guests on Christ-
mas day, and so delighted were the
participants that they thought it ad-
visable to remain at the Herman home
for both dinner and supper. Of course
the guests were not all grown ups;
children and grand-children were
among the happy aggregation. All
agreed that Mrs. Herman had few
eguals in supplying the choicest of
eats. On this glorious occasion the
chicken population of the Gap was re-
duced ten head. It was declared to be
one of the old-time layouts.
Orrie Mulbarger, the Noll Bros. ten-
ant farmer, has purchased the late
Daniel Schlottman home. Considera-
tion, $1500. Mr. Mulbarger gets pos-
sesion on April 1st, at which time he
will leave the farm for good. He
seems to think that any kind of work,
even from the quarries to the mines,
beats tenant farming. Some people
seem to think differently. They say
that half a dozen tenant farmers in
the Nittany valley will quit April 1st.
They allege it don’t pay. At the same
time they mostly began on a limited
capital, and now on throwing up their
hands, they will offer at public sale a
fine line of horses, cattle and farm
implements. They are all possessors
of automobiles.
Some people are born mean, while
others thrust themselves into mean
ways. Shakespeare said that some
men lie with such volubility that you
would think truth a fool. Isn’t it
rather strange that any one should
be born a liar? Yet it is so. The lit-
erary world is full of falsehoods. Even
nursery books, which are filled with
admonitions against the sin of lying,
abound in fairy stories, romance and
tales, in none of which is there a par-
ticle of truth, except as they portray
nature. There is no fact in fiction
yet there may be a good deal of
truth; and so there should be clear
distinctions drawn between romance
and fiction, falsehood and lying. Some
people’s lives are lies from beginning
to ending. One may make a false
statement unintentionally; that is not
a lie. It has been held by some very
good people, such as bishops, prelates
and standard moralists, that there
may be occasions when men are justi-
fied in telling a falsehood. When the
false statement would be of great ad-
vantage to the one making it, and of
no disadvantage to others.
Our Junior club of the Methodist
church has been very busy during the
holiday season in entertaining the
older class of the community, the ones
who unfortunately were, through
physical ailments, unable to attend
church service—Mrs. Kepler, the
mother of our efficient minister, engi-
neered the worthy project. They got
up a very handsome Christmas tree;
two young'® ladies of the club
led the procession, followed by six-
teen of the club membership, then,
after entering the home, they placed
the tree on the table, after which this
program was carried out: First, Mrs.
Kepler, who by the way is a superb
musician, joined by Miss Helen
Schreffler, rendered a beautiful solo,
after which Mrs. Kepler had the club
chant the Lord’s prayer; following the
club sang the beautiful rendition of
“Love Divine,” and closed with the
familiar hymn, “Silent Night.” Dur-
ing the exercises Mrs. Kepler read se-
lections from the scripture, first from
Isaiah, next a paragraph from St.
Luke, closing with the 5th chapetr of
Revelation, after which all repaired to
their homes. These services were con-
ducted at 4 p. m. each day; the tree
was left at each house visited twenty-
four hours, not removing same until
4 p. m. the following day. The enter-
tainment was very commendable and
enjoyed hugely by all interested.
LEMONT.
John Lee, who has built a new
house near town, has moved his fam-
ily there.
Mrs. M. A. Williams has been on
the sick list of late, but is somewhat
better now.
Prof. R. U. Wasson spent the
Christmas vacation among friends in
these parts.
The venerable Robert Jackson is
quite ill at this writing, incident to
his advanced age.
There will be some big changes
among the farming people in these
parts in the spring.
J. Ed Williams, who was hurt by a
horse in the fall, is able to be around
again, but still limps.
The Christmas entertainments are
all over and every one has settled
down to solid work again.
The Centre Furnace school, which
has been closed on account of chick-
en pox, was opened again on Monday.
. The fine rain Sunday night was
certainly needed to raise the waters.
The Oak Hall roller mills could be run
but part time owing to low water in
Spring creek.
The two young men who have taken
over the Hoy garage -are busy taking
care of the work that is coming to
them, and they are doing their best
to please all patrons.
The United Brethren congregation
of Houserville held an old-fashioned
watch meeting Sunday night, which
was well attended, and all could not
help but get much good from the serv-
ices.

INTERMARRIAGE.
By L. A. Miller.
“May I marry my cousin?”
A young lady who is in love with
her cousin propounded the above que-
ry to the writer recently.
One does not care to assume the
grave responsibility of advising any-
one to marry or not to marry, because
there is a possibility of the union
turning out badly. If it does, the
blame is thrown entirely upon the ad-
visor; but, if it pans out all right, the
advisor gets no credit. It is better,
therefore, to recite the facts bearing
on the case, and leave each individu-
al to draw his or her own conclusions,
and act accordingly. This places the
responsibility where it belongs, and
where it will do the most good.
The history of marriage affords
very interesting reading for all class-
es, but it leaves the reader rather
mixed as to what is right, or why cer-
tain customs are held to be binding.
Polygamy, polyandry and exogamy
have each been practiced under the
sanction of sacred laws. They each
appear to have been necessary at the
time they were in vogue, consequent-
ly must have been proper. In some
ages of the world there were more
women than men. Then polygamy—
plurality of wives—was considered
necessary. In other ages there were
more men than women. Then polyan-
dry—plurality of husbands—was held
to be proper. Exogamy was practic-
ed extensively in Asiatic countries,
‘and among some Indian tribes in
America. It simply means to marry
outside of the family, or tribe.
The Arab tribes, who practiced it,
required their men to capture their
wives from other tribes. There was a
motive behind this of which the peo-
ple themselves were not aware. It
may seem odd that any one can have
a motive and not know it. Of course
it is not an individual motive, but the
motive which prompts communities
and nations to do that which is event-
ually for their great good. There was
little sociability between tribes and
clans in ancient days. They fought
to gain the ground they occupied and
fought to maintain it.
Every man’s hand was against
every other man’s and there was little
or no intercourse between tribes.
Many of these clans were small, prob-
ably made up of one family. There
was nothing left for them to do but
to intermarry or steal their wives.
They may not have known anything
about the laws of consanguinity, yet
in the observance of a savage custom
they kept them. The scarcity of men,
whereby polygamy was rendered nec-
essary, is accounted for by the de-
struction of character, of the wars be-
tween tribes and communities, but the
scarcity of women, whereby polyandry
became necessary, can only be ac-
counted for by the habit of killing off
female infants. This is practiced yet
in portions of China and some of the
Asiatic countries. They were consid-
ered burthensome and expensive,
while men were useful to fight and
hunt. The first form of marriage ‘of
which history gives any account was
known among the Arabs as “Matt, a
marriage,” a temporary arrangement
for a fixed time. Mahomed relates
that he had great difficulty in doing
away with this custom.
In many parts of China, Japan and
India the custom still prevails, but
somewhat modified. If the man does
not like the woman at the end of a
certain time he need not marry her,
but, if he does, they are then formally
married, whether she is suited or not.
Next following ”Matta’s mar-
riages,” were the “Beena marriages,”
in which the man went to live with
his wife’s people. In this form of
marriage kinship was only counted
through the mother, because it was a
form of polyandra in which a woman
might have several husbands, each
from a different tribe. The effect of
this was to unite the different tribes
by establishing a blood relationship
between them. The people may not
have been aware of this, yet it did it,
and it was the first step towards unit-
ing these tribes into one nation with
common blood.
The next step was “Baal marriage,”
or Thibetan polyandra, in which the
wife was taken to the home of her
lord and master, or masters, as it
was not uncommon for all the broth-
ers in a family to have one wife in
common,
It was then that kinship began to
be traced through the male side of the
family, If there were no brothers,
members of the same tribe were per-
mitted to marry her.
In all these forms of early marriage
there seems to have been an instinct-
ive avoidance of marriage between
relatives. The men made it a rule
to secure wives from different tribes.
Sometimes they were ostensibly
prompted to this by the fame it gave
them to capture women from distant
or powerful tribes. At other times it
was held to be chivalrous to steal a
woman away from her home and peo-
ple. When a tribe guarded a woman
so closely as to prevent capture, oth-
er tribes would unite against it and
take all of the unmarried ones for the
young men, and the married ones for
slaves, in order to prevent their
daughters from being distinguished
from the married women.
The Arabs established the custom
of veiling all the women after the
same fashion. This custom is contin-
ued to the present time. The result
of it all, however, was to unite the
tribes into nations, and to change pa-
triarchal into monarchial government.
Thus it will be seen that marriage
has been subject to evolution; and
what a wonderful degree of the “eter-
nal fitness” is shown in it. What to
us would seem inhuman and brutal,
proves to have been the most effect-
ive means of accomplishing ends great
beyond the conception or even the
wildest faney of those who established
and practiced them.
Is it not rather singular that none
of these systems made intermarriage
necessary? They were such as to
more effectually prevent in them even
the strictest law against it. The lead-
{ing characters in Bible history ap-
pear to have followed the custom of
getting their wives from a tribe other
than the one to which they belonged,
while the earliest history shows that
the capture of women was one of the
main objects of wars.
The law of Moses, as laid down in
Leviticus, eighteenth chapter, is clear
and explicit, and conforms closely to
the laws of nature, is shown in the
customs of more intelligent classes,
who were largely controlled by that
intangible and indescribable force
known as instinet. Those who are cu-
rious on this subject can do no better
than to read carefully and understand-
ingly, the law of Moses in relation to
it. They should also bear in mind this
other fact, that this law was observ-
ed, in the main, by tribes who proba-
bly knew nothing of Moses or his law.
Also, that all nations, even savages,
observe the same law now, but not
strictly. Scientists of all schools ac-
knowledge it to be a natural law
which cannot be violated without suf-
fering a penalty more or less severe.
The only conclusion that we can draw
from nature is that consanguinous
marriages are violations of fixed laws.
These laws not only apply to the hu-
man family, but to all conditions of
animal and vegetable life.
The horticulturist has studied them
until he is able to dwarf any species
of fruit on trees, and so weaken their
vitality that they are utterly incapable
of reproducing their kind. The Chi-
nese, by long years of patient watch-
ing and care, have succeeded in grow-
ing oaks no taller than a man. Flor-
ists have reduced the larger flowering
bushes to tiny sprigs; have changed
the color and general appearance of
various species of flowers until they
can only be recognized by the more
expert botanist. These results are all
obtained by persistent violations of
the fixed laws of nature.
The marriage problem is a peculiar
one. It might be likened to a lottery;
if it pans out all right, happiness pre-
vails; if it proves a misfit or a fail-
ure the devil’s to pay without resourc-.
es to liquidate.

street and above that street carried
and hauled water for some time. We

miss the water ’till the well runs
dry,” which has been proven here at
this time. This is the first time
known when water has been so scarce
in this place.

Gallantry.
A young soldier from the backwoods
section had been invited to a military
dance and was frankly horrified at the
up-to-date ways of the young wom-
en. His partner, after spending half
of the dance in agony over his awk-
wardness, suggested that they sit out
the other half of the dance, and led
him to the veranda. There she drew
out a gold cigarette case and remark-
ed: “Of course, you don’t mind girls
smoking ?”
The young soldier determined to be
just as modern as she. ;
“Lady,” he retorted, “I don’t give a
hoot if you chew.”—William W.
Wendt in Judge.
MEDICAL.
That Morning Lameness
If you are lame every morning, and
suffer urinary ills, there must be a
cause. Often it’s weak kidneys. To
strengthen the weakened kidneys and
avert more serious troubles, use
Doan’s Kidney Pills. You can rely on
Bellefonte testimony.
Mrs. H. W. Johnson, Valentine St.,
Bellefonte, says: “I have used Doan’s
Kidney Pills whenever my kidneys
troubled me. I had attacks with my
kidneys and felt so miserable with
backache I covld hardly get up on my
feet. Mornings when I came down
stairs I was so lame I couldn’t raise
my feet to go up the steps again. My
kidneys were disordered and annoyed
me a great deal. Doan’s Kidney Pills
from Runkle’s drug store soon put an
end to my suffering and rid me of the
aches and pains. I depend on Doan’s
now when my kidneys get out of or-
der.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mrs. Johnson had. Foster-Milburn
