Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Crumblish were

There is little difference between

When men become enrolled in the
great anaconden of prejudice all hope
of progression is up with them.
All socially disturbing differences
should be settled as spedily as possi-

Those who are always complaining
about others running things, are gen-

thing.
If you have made good money, and
spent it in making others rich, and
now find yourself short, blame no one
but yourself.
Mrs. Collins Baumgardner has been
quite seriously ill for several weeks
but glad to announce that she is slow-
ly recovering.
George Gheen left Wednesday for
Sunbury, where he expects to take a
position with the Willard Battery
service station.
Ward Showers and his estimable
better-half have moved into their co-
sy new home recently purchased from
Kline Grenoble.
There are certain rich men and some
not overly wealthy who are entitled
to a monument, but the design thereof
should be that of a hog.
That kind of financiering that will
carry successfully a private business
is what we need at the head of our
state and national governments.
You might as well desire that fire
will not burn you, cold not freeze you,
as not to expect to be opposed by those
whose interests stand counter to
yours.
Our schols will close in twenty days,
hence the children are counting the
days studiously when they will again
be permitted to enjoy the sunshine of
liberty.
Friends of Mrs. Harold Kerstetter
will be glad to learn that she is able
to be about. Her recent illness caus-
ed a delay of their moving into their
new home.
It is always best to form acquain-
tances slowly, for in case of dissatis-
faction you not only delay the event
of your own disappointment, but also
of their discomfiture.
Jack Noll, our artistic painter and
paper hanger, and his lieutenant, Free
Hile, are about the busiest individu-
als of our village at this time, the un-
usually large amount of movings is
water in Jack’s mill at this opportune
time.
Pleasant Gap had more movings
this spring than were ever known be-
fore. Something like twenty people
changed residences. There was very
little pick and choice, as we housed all
of our families with the greatest diffi-
culty, on account of the scarcity of
houses.
E. K. Keller last week sold one of
his desirable lots adjacent to the for-
mer H. Zimmerman home, to Doc.
Stover. Dimension of lot, 50 by 150
feet. His consideration was $450.00,
cash, which is regarded as a very fair
price. Mr. Stover will in the near fu-
tre, erect an attractive house on the
ot.
To be successful, needs not to be ab-
solutely correct; the Creator himself,
only, is that. But to have progress
we must necessarily have opposing
sides, fr mankind must be whipped
into action, lashed into duty, and thus
the elements and his social condition,
free thought and free speech, wisely
regulated by good government, are the
attributes of his fortune.
A surprise party was given Mr, and
Mrs. Hugh Crumblish, in their new
home, on Monday evening. Three ta-
bles of five hundred were in play.
Guests present were Mr. and Mrs. S.

was served. Mrs. Crumblish was the
winner of the prize.
Our principal industry, Whiterock,
is apparently progressing finely, New
men are being added almost daily. It
is a great pleasure to see the vast
bucket brigade going to and from the
works, as it is an indication of pros-
perity. The management have pur-
chased a number of houses at the Gap
and are negotiating for more. This is
a good business proposition. With ac-
cessible homes for employees it is
much easier to secure men when com-
fortable houses are in evidence. The
new houses acquired are being speedi-
ly put in presentable shape; all are re-
modeled, painted and papered
throughout. The new tenants are de-
lighted, since they were allowed to
select their paper personally, which is
quite commendable and appreciated.
What promised to be a serious mix-
up in title to a property here occurred
about moving time. George Devinney
rented the new home of Frank Weaver
for $15.00 a month and although no
lease had been signed there were sev-
eral witnesses to the agreement. A
few days later Hugh Crumblish made
Mr. Weaver an attractive offer for the
purchase of his property,which the lat-
ter accepted. But when moving day
came Devinney refused to vacate the
property. Counsel was employed by
all the parties interested and for a
time it looked as if the affair would
have to be settled in the courts but on
April 8rd an amicable adjustment of
the matter was reached. Another
home was found for Mr. Devinney and
after he was paid $150 by Mr. Weaver
for a release of the house he moved
and Mr. Crumlish and family were
given possession.

How to Buy Your Face Veil—
Strangely enough, it was a man, a
man milliner, who initiated me into
the knowledge of veil buying. “There
is no detail of a woman’s dress that,
as a rule, she buys so unintelligently,
and adjusts so clumsily as she does
her face veil,” he discoursed, as he
stood behind the triple mirror and
watched the saleswoman drape one!
filmy cloud and then another across
my hat brim. “And yet the whole ef-
fect of a smart street costume can be
made or marred by this accessory. If
a veil is dainty, delicate, and becom-
ing, it can ‘cover a multitde of sins,’ ”
he hinted, more purposefully than gal-
lant, I must admit.
Perhaps a few suggestions about
veils, as he gave them to me, may help
you make your next one look better
and last longer.
If you are a large woman with pro-
nounced features, you may select veils
with striking patterns and look very
well in them. But haven't you often
seen a small woman with delicate fea-
tures almost hidden under the heavy
patterns that would have been very
becoming to her larger sister! If you
have dainty, small features, you
should choose a veil with a small, del-
icate design.
And again, when you want a veil to
go with a small, close-fitting hat,
choose a single-mesh veil; while with
a large hat, where the brim is further
away from the features, the more fig-
ured patterns are quite smart and at-
tractive.
Care must be used when selecting a
veil that contains spots or large fig-
ures that these are placed so they do
not hurt the eyes.
placed far enough apart, the veil can
always be adjusted so that the spots
do not come directly in front of the
eyes.
If you want a filmy veil, you must
expect to pay enough to get a really
fine mesh. Those made out of stiff-
ened cotton are cheaper, but the sticky
dressing soon comes off, and then the
veil easily crumples and tears. Some
women plan to buy these cheaper veils,
wear them a few times, and throw
them away. But the better veils cost
only about twice as much, while they
wear three or four times as long.
Having selected your veil carefully
learn to take care of it. Don’t leave
it on your hat for days together. Pin-
ning the veil over a pasteboard roll
will keep it from getting stringy.
Basques are now shown on dresses;
sometimes so deep that it falls to the
knee and sometimes gathered instead
of circular. One dress had two wide
ruffles from the waist to the knee. The
skirts are sometimes so narrow that
the mannequin can scarcely walk—
cannot possibly take a normal step—
and again they have enormus widths
resulting from the circular cut of the
skirt gathered fully at waist. In sup-
ple satins and crepes these infinitely
rippling skirts are delightful.
Poiret also uses printed crepe in
If the figures are
waves—giving the effect of embroid-
‘ery on jackets. Either plain or with
scalloped edge, the bright print bor-
| ders the edges and bottom of the jack-
| ets are stitched flat in a band four or
| five inches deep on plaque, the edges
{ of dark blue cloth. His many bias ef-
fects are particularly graceful. An
evening gown gives the effect of en-
tirely bias draping, one arm and
shoulder quite uncovered, with the
fullness of both corsage and skirt
gathered to the waist at one side. A
detail immediately commented upon
as beautifully practical was a detach-
able flowing sleeve on one dinner frock
transforming it at will to an evening
gown. Very practical also for sum-
mer wraps were flowing capes of
black crepe or satin lined with white
or vivid color.
; The new Russian coiffure first seen
at the smart dress-rehearsals of the
Kamerny theatre, on the Champs
Elysses, is destined to be popular. A
wide band of transparent .gauze, sil-
ver, gold or steel is pulled tightly in
front over the hair smoothly parted
from the middle. One edge of gauze
touches the eyebrows, the other is
rolled into a coronet circling the head.
Sometimes a simple roll of metal stuff
is replaced over the transparent band
by white or colored silk or satin cir-
cled pearls. Several details, indeed
chez Poiret at present might have
been inspired by cubist costumes at
the. Kamerny. One frock shown of
beige material had a border on the
skirt of patches of different-colored
materials forming outlines of houses.
Another had a procession of birds with
outstretched wings around its border,
with a hat to match with the same
birds encircling the crown.
The war put a stop to some of this
rioting of clothes. The reaction is
now asuming dangerous possibilities.
Take shoes for instance. Not in the
memory of this nor the last genera-
tion has the eye beheld such footwear
as sprang into existence last year and
now grows bolder and wilder. Plain
black shoes appear absurd, as though
they belonged to slavery. Black
stockings are almost unknown where
women gather for gaiety.
The new shoes offered by American
bootmakers do not imitate the rain-
bow. They copy the kaleidoscope.
They are red, blue, purple, green, cop-
per, yellow. When they are black
they are not ordinary black. They
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.
i 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. Why not try i ?

are picked out with gold braid, with
silver jeweled with rhinestones, cut in-
to open work, inset with jade. What-
ever Venice and the Orient had to of-
fer in the way of making a foot con-
spicuous is to be found today in the
American shops.
Our feet are to be as gay as the
flowers of spring. Nothing is too col-
orful, nothing too fantastic in cut and
fabric manipulation, no buckle is too
large, no tongue too conspicuous.
And we have not small feet to put
into them. Will the effect be good?
And It Doesn’t Cost a Cent.
“The thing that goes the farthest
Towards making life worth while;
That costs the least and does the most,
Is just a pleasant smile.
It’s full of worth and goodness, too,
With genial kindness blent;
It’s worth a million dollars,
And doesn’t cost a cent.”
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 could 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
