ABR EE REIT Bellefonte, Pa., May 11, 1923. Country Correspondence Items of Interest Dished Up for the Delectation of “Watchman” Read- ers by a Corps of Gifted Correspondents. PLEASANT GAP. By actual count on Sunday there were 1800 automobiles passed through our town. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Noll and Mrs. J. Abner Noll are visiting this week with friends in Philadelphia. Mrs. Robb and daughter, Mrs. Har- ry Barr, of Altoona, are visiting at the home of Harry McClincy. Miss Clara Smoyer, who has been at the Cresson sanitorium for the past year, is home on a short vacation and we are glad to say very much improv- ed in health. “Come in and rest a bit-Tea House” is the sign for the Mrs. Gough’s new restaurant just established. Lunch- es of every description are served. We bespeak success for the new ven- ture as Mrs. Gough is a scrupulously cleanly, tidy woman and is an expert caterer. Collins Baumgardner continues to be chief cook and bottle-washer at his home. A week ago he took Mrs. Baumgardner to Tyrone to spend a week with her daughter’s family. Sun- day morning he left bright and early to bring her home, but found her rath- er ill to return, so she decided to stay another week. If a man’s wife is quick-tempered, irritable or cranky, he ought to make due allowance for it, remembering that she, like himself, is but human. She may be an angel in spirit, but there are times in the lives of all when the flesh steals a march on the spirit. He probably makes allowance for this when dealing with others, but when he comes home it is forgotten. How many there are who leave their amiability at their office or place of business, when they go home at night. The farmers are surely a highly fa- vored class. They can now borrow from $500 to $25,000 from the Federal Land bank, of Baltimore, at 5% per cent. per annum and by pz.ing 1 per cent. on a loan of $1000 per annum additional they have 33 years to pay off loan, principal and interest. I was just thinking that now, as usual, on the approach of a Presidential elec- tion the farmers are in evidence, since they are a powerful factor in politics. However, the proposition is a com- mendable one and should aid material- ly in advancing the interest of the tillers of the soil. The automobile industry is surely making wonderful progress. We have two well equipped garages, and it is astounding the work they turn out daily. Sommers and Jodon are locat- ed at the forks of the road leading to State College; the firm was establish- ed two years ago; in addition to their auto repair work they turned in and wired our residences for electric light. The auto repair work crowded them so hard they finally had to abandon the wiring of houses. The firm is practical and capable hence have all the work they can handle. Henry N oll is the possessor of the extensive up- to-date garage adjacent to the hotel and postoffice. Henry's progress is agreeably surprising all his friends; he handles every machine on the mar- ket but is a Ford enthusiast; what he don’t know about the Ford is not worth knowing. Mr. Noll, very wise- ly, before embarking in business on his own account procured a position in a large Philadelphia auto establish- ment; when through there he served quite a while in an extensive factory in Indiana; his final apprenticeship found him in an up-to-date factory in Michigan. A year ago he opened his garage and owing to his close atten- tion to business, he is quite proficient, hence it is that he is over-taxed with patronage and is often obliged to re- main at his work until after midnight. His success is assured. Ra JACKSONVILLE. Miss Madge Allison, of Howard, spent Sunday with friends in this place. Miss Jane Yearick, who has been seriously ill with diphtheria, is now slowly improving. Do not forget the festival to be held in this place on May 30th, Me- morial day.

Nobody can be too careful to keep the balance up. When people begin to lose appetite, or to get tired easily, the least imprudence brings on sickness, weakness, or debility. The system needs ‘a tonic, craves it, and should not be denied it; and the best ton- ic that many people recommend is Hood's Sarsaparilla. What this medicine has done in keeping healthy people healthy, in keep- ing up the even balance of health, gives it the same distinction as a preventive that it enjoys as a cure. Its early use has il- lustrated the wisdom of the old saying that “a stitch in time saves nine.” Preventive treatment now and then ealls for the use of a good cathartic or laxative, like Hood’s Pills, which are purely vege- table and act quickly and thoroughly.

One of the most striking cases of college loyalty and sacrifice has just come to light in connection with the Pennsylvania State College $2,000,000 building fund campaign, with the ar- rival at headquariars of a pledge for $200 from “Tommy” Srednik, gradu- ate of the college in the class of 1912. Srednik endured untold hardships and privation as a Russian refugee following the outbreak of the world war, and broken in mind and body, with his money gone, he was finally re- turned to America through the Red Cross. Arriving in this country, he found that his wife and child had both died the previous year of influenza. Weak and penniless, he began the battle for recovery and it is only re- cently that he has been able to be about, and it is said that he is still out of regular employment. Yet he has not only pledged generously to the college campaign, but he is spending three nights or more a week canvass- ing alumni in Philadelphia and has al- ready secured many pledges. Self-Fed Pigs Gain Better Than Hand-Fed. The self-feeding of pigs is prefera- ble to hand-feeding, with respect to weight gained and the low cost of gain, according to a feeding experi- ment conducted at The Pennsylvania State College agricultural experiment station. Two lots of fifteen pigs each were fed for ninety-nine days, a ration of corn meal, buckwheat middlings and tankage, self-fed to one lot and hand- fed to the other. The self-fed lot gained 1.3 pounds per day at a cost per hundred-weight gain of $5.74 and returned above feed cost $7.41 per pig, as against .88 pounds, $7.78 and $3.18 for the hand-fed lot. The pigs in the self-fed lot showed a decided advan- tage in thrift and quality during the last half of the experiment. Then He Traveled. For hours they had been together on her front porth. The moon cast its tender gleam down on the young and handsome couple who sat strangely for apart. He sighed. She sighed. Fi- nally: “] wish I had money, dear,” he said. “I'd travel.” Impulsively she slipped her hand in- to his; then, rising swiftly, she sped in the house. Aghast, he looked at his hand. In his palm lay a nickel.—Lampoon. MEDICAL. Some Good Advice Strengthened by Bellefonte Exper- iences. Kidney disease is too dangerous to neglect. At the first sign of back- ache, headache, dizziness or urinary disorders, you should give the weak- ened kidneys prompt attention. Eat little meat, take things easier and use a reliable kidney tonic. There’s no other kidney medicine so well recom- mended as Doan’s Kidney Pills. Belle- fonte people rely on them. Here's one of the many statements from Belle- fonte people. Mrs. Boyd Vonada, E. Bishop St., says: “Some time ago my kidneys were in a weak condition. I could hardly rest at night and during the day when I was on my feet doing my housework my back gave out and ached so I often had to stop and rest. I frequently had dizzy nervous head- aches and my kidneys acted too often. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills purchased at the Mott Drug Co., and they just suited my case. They rid me, of the backaches, headaches and dizziness. My kidneys were regulated and I felt fine.” 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. 68-19.
