Many ice houses hereabouts were filled last week with eight inch ice. Prof. A. L. Bowersox transacted business at State College on Satur- ay. A high wind on Monday night drift- ed some of the roads shut in this sec- tion. Farmer Irvin Walker will quit the farm on April first and locate at State College. Mrs. C. M.

Ward, of Baileyville, fell one evening last week while in the act of getting into an automobile after church services, and broke her arm. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Johnson recent- ly returned from a visit with friends in Philadelphia. While they enjoyed their trip they were glad to get back home. A. Stine Walker and son, H. N.

Elder has decided to quit farming in the spring and the Mrs. Olewine farm on the Branch, which he now occupies, has been rented by Scott Judy. In last week’s letter we forgot to mention the name of Miss Grace Bow- ersox, as one of the young ladies who participated in the program at the Odd Fellows’ banquet. Mrs. Cyrus Goss has closed her home on east Main street and with her two grand-children will be at the Brockerhoff house, Bellefonte, during the remainder of the winter.

Royer and Mrs. Basil Frank have been on the sick list but both are now recovering. Postmaster Barr is housed up with a bad cold and Miss Sallie Barr is now in charge of the postoffice. On Thursday of last week Mrs. Su- san Peters quietly celebrated her sev- enty-fifth birthday anniversary at her home on east Main street. She is a remarkably well preserved lady for one of her years. James Kline and family are now cosily located on south Water street, Mr. Kline having purchased the Wade Homan property. Mr. Homan and family flitted to Clearfield, where Mr. Homan has secured a good position. The official installation of Rev. H. N. Walker as pastor of the Lutheran church, at Bellwood, took place last Sunday. Rev. Dr. Young preached in the morning and delivered thé charge to the congregation and Rev. Peters preached in the evening and delivered the charge to the pastor. ————— pe Snoke for All A certain elementary school was visited one day by an important edu- cational authority, who cross-examin- ed the pupils and was eminently sat- isfied with the results. The boys strained their brains and did their du- tiful best. “Well,” said the visitor at last, “is there any lad here who would like to ask me something ?”’ “Yes, sir!” came a tired voice. “What time does your train leave?” HAMBONE'S MEDITATIONS ("AR HEAR TELL BouT SOME FOLKS WHUT KEEPS SA'DAY FUH DE LAWDS DAY BUT SHUCKS!

The Johnsons, previous to going to the Quaker city, were residents of this place. Mrs. Johnson is a sufferer with diabetis.

It is wonderful what good reasons men have for not serving on juries but a bright judge is generally equal to the occasion. In one court an Italian asked to be excused from jury duty. “Why ?” asked the judge. “Well, your honor, I don’t under- stand good English.” “Oh, you will do, replied the judge. “You won’t hear much good English here, anyhow.” ——Subsecribe for the “Watchman.” Real Estate Transfers.

Pennsylvania Sheep to Give Coats to Penn State. Members of Sheep and Wool Grow- ers’ Associdtions in Indiana, McKean and Mercer counties recently adopted a unique method of giving their sup- port to Penn State’s $2,000,000 emer- gency building fund, when they voted to donate one or two fleeces per man for the next three years. There are more than 20,000 sheep growers in Pennsylvania whose combined flocks total more than a half million head of sheep. Together with the wool crop shorn annually, amounting to 3,300,- 000 pounds, the sheep represent a to- tal value of more than seven and a quarter million dollars. The action of the growers’ associations in the three counties has come to the attention of every sheep raiser in these counties, and indications are that it will spread to other centers of sheep interest. In the opinion of executive officers of the associations, every farmer who has benefitted from improvements in his methods of feeding and managing his flock, and in the marketing of bis wool at the suggestion of county agents and extension specialists from The Pennsylvania State College, will be only too glad to give this boost to the greater Penn State movement. Making Bad Things Worse. Winter, as if it were an evil spirit, seems to take delight in making bad things worse. Rheumatism twists harder, twinges sharper, catarrh becomes more annoying, and the many symptoms of scrofula are developed and aggravated. These are com- mon diseases, and it is a wonder that more people don’t get rid of them. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has been very suc- cessful in the treatment of these com- plaints. It is easily obtained, and there is abundant testimony that its effects are radical and permanent. In cases where a laxative or cathartic is needed, it is well te supplement Hood's gentle, thorough and effective. 08-2 t— eens The Devious Game. Representative Frear was talking about the game of poker. “Good poker players,” he said, “al- ways make me think of the story of the two shirtwaist manufacturers, Franckel and Gottesfeldt. “Franckel and Gottesfeldt met in the Pennsylvania station. “Where are you going?’ asked Franckel. “ Washington,’ « Gottesfeld answer- “¢What a liar you are!” said Franckel. ‘You want to make me be- lieve you're going to Philadelphia and that’s why you say you're going to Washington, but you can’t fool me with your lies, I know very well you're going to Washington.” ” ———Subscribe for the “Watchman.” CASTORIA Bears the signature of Chas.

Sometimes even the trivial side. of a great man appeals to the public, writes Roscoe G. Mitchell in The Na- tion’s Business. There is one exper- ience I had with Mr. Carnegie. I had a copy of a cable from Berlin relative to some move made by the then Em- peror William looking to the promo- tion of world peace. My city editor had asked that I get Mr. Carnegie to comment on the cable dispatch. I lo- cated Mr. Carnegie at a meeting of the Civic Federation at the Hotel As- tor. When the meeting had concluded and the guests were taking their de- parture, 1 rushed over to the speak- ers’ table to have a word with him. Just as I spoke to Mr. Carnegie, I was surprised to see him dart sudden- ly on all fours under the table with- out acknowledging my greeting. I pursued my quarry to his place of ref- uge. As I crawled under the table, I saw the ironmaster on hands and knees and a worried look on his beard- ed countenance. Before I could drive further into the mystery, Mr. Carnegie’s face was beaming. Getting back on his feet, he displayed a quarter and a dime. Hap- py as a ten year old on a Christmas morning, he explained: “I had taken this ten cents from my pocket to give to the hat check girl at the door. When you spoke to me I dropped the coin. Now I have recov- ered my original coin and an addition- al twenty-five cents. I tell you, my boy: it is better to be born lucky than rich. Real Eye Opener. Albert J. Beveridge, apropos of his defeat for the Senate, said wistfully at an Indianapolis gathering: “The November elections were a bitter disappointment to a lot of us. Yes, they made a lot of us feel like Lush. “As Lush drained his ninth glass of water one morning his wife said to him in kindly tones: “ ‘Lawrence, dear, you were out so awfully late last night. I suppose you’d like an eye opener before start- ing for the office, wouldn’t you?” “ ‘Indeed I would, my love, Lush gratefully. said HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA. Is Your Blood Good or Thin and Watery? You can tell by the way you feel. You need Hood’s Sarsaparilla to make your blood rich, red and pure, tingling with health for every organ. You need it if weak and tired day in and day out, if your appetite is poor, sleep unrefreshing,—for hu- mors, boils, eruptions, scrofula, rheu- matism, headaches, nervous prostra- tion. It is simply wonderful to give strength to your whole body. It is agreeable, pleasant and con- venient to take, and embodies a long- tried and found-true formula. 67-34 “ ‘Here, then,” she said, ‘is the bill for my new fur coat—only—only $950.” ” MEDICAL. If Women Only Knew What a Heap of Happiness it Would Bring to Bellefonte Homes. Hard to do housework with an ach- ing back. Brings you hours of misery at lei- sure or at work. If women only knew the cause— that Backache pains often come from weak kidneys. 'Twould save much needless woe. Doan’s Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys. Many residents of this vicinity en- dorse them. Mrs. Ralph Hassinger, Oak Hall, Pa., says: “My kidneys troubled me a great deal and my back was weak and lame. I tired easily. Inflamma- tion of the bladder was my Worst trouble and the action of my kidneys was frequent and painful. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills and they soon strengthened my back and regulated my kidneys, relieving the bladder trouble.” 60c, at all dealers. Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y.
