be hoped that she will be greatly ben-
efitted by her stay there.
Owing to ill health Miss Gutard has
resigned as teacher of the Centre

has had enough experience in the
school room to assure her success.
Last Friday evening the Gill home
on the Branch was the scene of a hap-
py gathering in celebration of Mi-
chael’s 21st birthday anniversary.
Games, music and choice refreshments
constituted the evening’s program,
which proved a most delightful occa-
sion for all those fortunate enough to
be present.
We are sorry to note the illness of
that veteran hunter, David Robb, of
Liberty township. He came up to
join the Rossman—Sunday club for
their annual hunt but was taken sick
and for several days his condition was
quite serious. He is now considerably
improved but will not be able to enjoy

body invited to attend this, as well as
all other services held in the church.

ness of our fellow townsman, George
Homan. For some months Mr. Ho-
man has been in failing health but
only within the past few weeks has he
been confined to the house and the
past week in bed. His physician has
little, if any encouragement to offer.

Huge Sum to Aid Hunting.
The Pacific Coast Sportsmen’s club,
with headquarters in Los Angeles,
proposes to begin operations with a
fund of $4,000,000 and contemplates
an unusual arrangement of wild game
preserves in California. The organi-
zation will begin an immediate cam-
paign to dispose of 4,000 member-
ships at $1,000 each, according to the
incorporation papers, recently filed.
The program includes establishment
of huge game preserves in Central
California, where members from all
over America will be able to hunt wild
game of every species.
A letter from the secretary of the
San Francisco S. P. C. A. and of the
State Humane Association of Califor-
nia says that these organizations
“are going on record as disapproving
of the objects of this corporation,”
and “we will do what we can to pre-
vent the unnecessary slaughter of an-
imals.” It also states that the great-
est cruelty in the proposed plan would
be through the capture of the wild an-
imals and bringing them from Africa.
All Humane Societies should try to
stop this.

ALL MADE IN AN HOUR. |
It will not take very long to make
any of these gifts, nor very deep
reaching into your pocket, and yet
when the friend who receives them
peels off the Christmas wrappings she
is likely to feel a little nearer to you
for having made the gift. There is a
different thrill to a home-made gift.
Begin by making a pair of fancy
garters, and don’t allow yourself more
than an hour to make them. If you
have all the materials assembled and
your thread does not spring too many
knots, you can easily do it. Buy the
fancy webbing already ruffled, then
with seraps of ribbon tied in knots and
made into a rosette, or a few twists
that will suggest a flower, or possibly
a few fronds from a discarded feath-
er, and your garters are ready to de-
light in the heart of a friend who
dotes on negliges.
The friend who delights in per-
fumes is an easy person to buy for.
Select a bottle, the quality and size to
be determined by your purse-strings,
then cover the bottle tightly with a
scrap of gold lace, cover the edges at
the top with narrow fancy gold braid,
applying some tiny roses from some
rose trimming that can be bought at
any fancy goods shop, or even the five
and ten, and your gift is finished. For
an invalid friend a bottle of smelling
salts can be thus artistically treated
for a gift.

It does make a difference
where you buy your meats.
Quality foods at the prices
that prove fairness. Service
that’s really helpful. Pure
butter, and fresh eggs.

A nest of sachets for milady’s dres-
ser can be made of a satin six-inch
ribbon folded in squares, sewed to-
gether and filled with cotton and sa-
chet powder, are a simple gift that
will make you sweetly remembered al
year. Place three of such filled
squares one on top of the other, tie
them all together with inch-wide dou-
ble-faced satin ribbon of your own col-
or choosing, and your gift is ready to
be sent. Tout mon Jardin, potpour-
ri, or lavender flowers may be substi-
tuted for sachet powder when the gift
is intended for bed linens.

Tells Her Experience. sultation in on German,
All too often women accept their Qos in Crider’s Fachange, Belletoms,
pains and aches as natural to their
sex. They fail to realize that weak
kidneys are often to blame for that
backache, those headaches, dizzy
spells and that tired, depressed feel-
ing. Thousands have found new
health and strength by helping the
weakened kidneys with Doan’s Pills—
a stimulant diuretic. This Bellefonte
case is one of many:
Mrs. Susan Lyons, R. F. D. No. 1,
Box 49, says: “I suffered with disor-
dered kidneys and my back gave out
and ached as if it would break. Iwas
hardly ever free from nervous, dizzy
headaches. I used Doan’s Pills bought
at Zeller & Son’s drug store and was
relieved.
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs. Ly-
ons had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs. Ls
