Mrs. Watson was what many peo pte might describe as a “bridge fiend.” A day was a failure for her if she did not play at least two or three rubbers of her favorite game—and usually it was a half-dozen or more rubbers. Not long ago Mrs. Watson visited in a small city where the game had just “arrived.” On her second day in town her hostess gave a bridge party and all the town’s elite were present. Af- ter the games were over and refresh- emnts were being served, one of the guests engaged Mrs, Watson in conver- sation. “Oh, Mrs. Watson! I have been told that you are almost an authority on the game of bridge, and I am so anx- ious to have your opinion on our play- ing here this afternoon. Just what do vou think of our game?” Mrs. Watson really shouldn’t have done it! But, remember, she was a “pridge fiend!” And it really was ap- proaching tragedy, the things that had been done there that afternoon! “What do I think of your game?” Mrs. Watson repeated slowly. “Well, really, you play a very interesting game, but I believe I like bridge bet- ter !"—Kansas City Star. RESTING PLACE FOR THE ARK Tradition That Has for Centuries Pointed Out Mount Ararat Is Not Recognized Locally. The identification of Mount Ararat, with the mountain upon which the Ark rested, is at least as early as the adoption of Christianity by the Ar- menians. But there does not appear to have existed in the neighborhood of Ararat an independent local tradi- tion of the flood, and the mountain is still locally known not as Ararat, but as Masis to the Armenians, and as Aghri Dagh to the Tartars. It is, how- ever, called Ararat in Armenien liter- ature as early as Faustus of Byzan- tum, As late as the month of May the colossal mountain is covered with snow to a level of 9,000 feet below the summit, Buf by the ongh o £ pep tember the snow canopy is confined to the Great Ararat, and the limit of perpetual snow on the side facing the plain on the north Is not less ele- vated than from 13,500 to 14,000 feet above the sea. The extensive de- pression through which the Araxes flows, collects the heats of summer, and the warm air from this reservoir which ascends the northern slopes of the mountain melts the snow, Kitchener's Choice of Title. When Sir Herbert Kitchener was elevated to the peerage, the new peer had the greatest difiiculty in selecting his title. He hated .he name Kitchen- er, and kicked stromgly against the pricks in eternalizing it in his title. Fipally Lord Salisbury had actually top telegraph him to hurry up about his decision. When the telegram ar- rived Kitchener and some friends were seated together, and one of them, turning to the baren-designate, said: “Don’t you think ‘Kitchener of Khar- toum’ sounds very well? The “Khar- toum’ ener.’ ” “I don’t think it's a bad idea,” was | all that Kitchener said. He evidently thought well of it, for those are the names by which his baronetcy was patented, Pilot-Fish Sometimes Betrays Shark. In olden times people believed that the pilot-fish used to guide and protect ghips. The fish would swim before the ship when all was well, but would dis- appear, they said, if rocks or land were near, so as to warn sailors. It is a fact that the pilot-fish swims with ships and sharks, but it is not with any intent to guide or protect. When swimming with a shark the pilot-fish keeps just ahead, and if he finds food, dashes about and flops his tail on top of the water to attract the shark’s attention. Then, when the great fish comes up, he shares the meal with it. But often when sailors throw a baited hook over the side of their ship the pilot-fish betrays the shark and leads it to the baited hook. Oxford.

Bluefish Ocean Glutton. The bluefish is a rough and ready fighter, but he is a rapacious rascal, as well, and probably more destrne- tive to other fishes than any creature which inhabits the sea.

FOR SHERIFF. We are authorized to announce that E. R. Taylor, of Bellefonte, will be a eandi- date for Sheriff of Centre county, subject to the decision of the Democratic voters as expressed at the primaries to be held on Tuesday, September 18th, 1923. FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER. We are authorized to announce the name of J. W.

Getting Up Nights This is One of Nature's Danger Signals. E. E. Mullen Tells Experience. E. E. Mullen, No. Kenova, Ohio, says: “Tor 10 years I have been troubled with kidneys and bladder. I had to get up 5 or 6 times each night. I had taken many kinds of medicine, but Lithiated Buchu (Keller formula) is the only kind that gave me any relief. My bladder is normal and I have only used the remedy for three weeks. If you want further facts, write me.” Lithiated Buchu (Keller formula) acts on the kidneys and bladder like Epsom Salts on the bowels. It cleans them out, relieving the bladder of many abnormal deposits. These tablets cost 2¢ apiece. The price makes it possible to place in the formula several drugs which are useful for relief. The formula is on the package. It is not likely you have ever taken any- thing similar. Try a few tablets for backache, scalding, scanty or high-colored urine, and frequent desire at night. Be sure to get the Keller formula Lifthi- ated Buchu at all drug stores, or write Keller Laboratory, Mechanicsburg, O., or locally at C. M. Parrish Drug Store, Eagle Bldg., N.
