of other animals have been sick. It is
just possible the poison was put out

ning at large in our town, but unfor-
tunately the cats got it.
E. C. Martz, our hustling grain
merchant, last Thursday loaded a car
at Fairbrook station with 1035 bush-
els of potatoes. They were shipped

the train on the L. & T. branch was

scattering the tubers in every direc-
tion.
Between five and six o’clock on

in the store room of J. C. Rider, at

sent to Tyrone for help and the Nep-
tune fire company, with their triple
pumper, made the trip to Marengo in
twenty-six minutes, but the flames
had already gained such headway
that it was impossible to save the
building, which not only included the
store room but Mr. Rider’s residence.
The firemen, however, kept the flames
from spreading. Mr. Rider, who em-
barked in the mercantile business sev-
eral years ago after retiring from
farm life, had his property partially
insured.

The minister, taking a walk early
in the morning, found one of his par-
ishioners lying peacefully in a dry
ditch.
“An’ where have you been, An-
firew ?” demanded the good man stern-
y-
“Well, I dinna richtly ken,” answer-
ed the prostrate one. “It micht ha’
been a weddin’ or it micht ha’ been a
funeral—but whichever it mocht ha’
been, it was a maist extraordinary
success.”

Telephone Service in Morocco.
It is said that Tangier, Morocco, is
one of the first cities outside the Unit-
ed States in which telephones were
used, the service having been estab-
lished there more than forty years
ago. Practically the same system,
however, is still in use. The circuits
are all operated on a one-wire basis
with the earth is the return conductor.
Although nominally each of the 600
subscribers has a number, the person
making the call usually asks for his
party directly by name. At the pres-
ent time the installation of a new sys-
tem is under way, consisting of the
latest type of common battery switch-
board and instruments.

Venezuela’s Cow Tree.
One of the most curious botanical
curiosities of South America is the so-
amined it is very wholesome and
nourishing and not so very different
from rich cream except for a slight
balsamic flavor. The tree frequently
attains a height of over one hundred
feet, and is often entirely smooth and
without a limb for a distance of eighty
feet from the ground.
If a hole is bored or any sort of a
wound made on this smooth bark, the
milk-like fluid will commence to flow
and continue for several days until it
coagulates at the mouth of the wound
and forms a waxy substance which
prevents further flow.—Canadian For-
estry Magazine.

Followed Instructions.
“Molly, did I not see you sitting on
that young man’s lap last night?”
asked the mother.
“Yes,” replied Molly, “and it was
very embarrassing. I wish you hadn’t
told me to.”
“Good gracious!” exclaimed the
mother. “I never told you to do any-
thing of the kind.”
“You did, mother,” insisted Moily.
“You told me that if he attempted to
be sentimental I must sit on him.”
HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA.

Truffles.
Truffles are subterranean vegetables
and are an expensive luxury and are
used for gravies and for flavoring
food. They form the chief ingredi-
ent of rich meat sauces, pates, etec.;
they contain no sugar. Truffles eaten
in a quantity by themselves are con-
sidered highly indigestible. The black
is the best known variety and is
found beneath the trees of oak forests
in southern France, where it is hunt-
ed by trained Spanish poodles who
have an exceedingly keen sense of
smell. Truffles decompose very easily,
giving off a very offensive, nauseat-
ing odor. Hotel chefs sometimes serve
Shem with geese livers and with tur-
ey.
MEDICAL.
Don’t Mistake the Cause
Many Bellefonte People Have Kidney
Trouble and Don’t Know It.
Do you have backache?
Are you tired and worn out?
Feel dizzy, nervous and depressed?
i Are the kidney secretions irregu-
ar?
Highly colored; contain sediment?
Likely your kidneys are at fault.
Weak kidneys give warning of dis-
tress.
Heed the warning; don’t delay—
Use a tested kidney remedy.
Read this Rellefonte testimony.
Samuel Weaver, S. Water street,
says: “My kidneys troubled me some
time ago and I almost got down with
backache. Mornings I felt so lame
and stiff I could hardly bend to put on
my shoes. During the day I suffered
terribly and my kidneys acted irreg-
ularly. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills
bought at Runkle’s drug store and
they helped me by strengthening my
back and kidneys and benefitting me
in every way.”

simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
