Miss Bertha Rimmey entertained
twenty girl friends at her home, last
Thursday evening. Each guest dressed
as a little mill girl, and of course they
had to play childish games, and had an
abundance of fun and enjoyment. The
surprise was on the participants when
among other delicacies was a cake,
all decorated with candles presenting
a beautiful and unique appearance,
The jolly entertainment was in honor
of Miss Bertha’s birthday. The young

In the early spring of 1863, when
the Confederate and Federal armies
were confronting each other on the
opposite hills of Stafford and Spott-
sylvania, two bands chanced, one
evening, at the same hour, to begin to
discourse sweet music on either bank
of the river. A large crowd of the sol-
diers of both armies gathered to listen
to the music, the friendly pickets not
interfering, and soon the bands began
to answer each other. First, the band
on the northern bank would play “Star
: Spangled Banner,” “Hail Columbia,”
or some other national air, and at its
conclusion the “boys in blue” would
cheer most lustily. And then the band
on the southern hill would respond
with “Dixie” or “Bonnie Blue Flag,”
or some other southern melody, and
the “boys in gray” would attest their
approbation with an old confederate
yell. But presently one of the bands
struck up a tune, in sweet and plain-
tive notes which were wafted across
the beautiful Rappahannock and were
caught up at once by the other band
and swelled into a grand anthem
which touched every heart, “Home,
Sweet Homel” At the conclusion of
this piece there went up a simultane-
ous shout from both sides of the river,
cheer followed cheer, and those hills,
which had so recently resounded with
hostile guns, echoed and re-echoed the
glad acclaim.
struck responsive to which the hearts
of enemies then—could beat in uni-
son; and, on both sides of the river,
Something down the soldier’s cheek
Washed off the stain of powder.
After all, “Home, Sweet Home”
“takes the cake.” The author, John
Howard Payne, an American, never
had a home. He wrote the lines while
serving the United States as Consul
abroad. No poet ever received a more
enviable compliment than that paid to
John Howard Payne by Jenny Lind,
on his last visit to his native land. It
was in the great National hall of the
city of Washington, where the most
distinguished audience that had ever
been seen in the capitol of the repub-
lic, was assembled. The matchless
singer entranced the vast throng with
her most exquisite melodies, “Casta
Diva,” the “Bird Song and “Greeting
to America.” But the great feature
of the occasion seemed to be an act of
inspiration. The singer suddenly
turned her face to the part of the au-
ditorium where Payne was sitting and
sang, “Home, Sweet Home,” with such
pathos and power that all were de-
lighted in the extreme.

Red Tape.
An Italian soldier who was declared
dead during the war, but insists that
he is very much alive, is having an
| embarrassing time. He has married
| since and the government insists upon
| paying his “widow” his pension. He
i has also received a nice medal recit-
‘ing his good deeds and the battle in
which he died. His name stands en-
, graved upon a mounment to “our hero
{dead.” In fact, the War Department
I refuses to concede that he is still
{ alive,
He is now trying to make the gov-
j ernment testify against itself—be-
i cause the scurvy income tax collector
not only believes he is alive, but in-
i sists upon making the usual collec-
| tions in the usual harsh way.—Los |]

Society Suggestion
I am obliged to a man named Cun-
ningham for sending me a copy of a
weekly newspaper printed in a town
in the Southwest. It says the bache-
lors of the town had long been in the
habit of attending social affairs given
by the young married people, and
caused a good deal of trouble, Several
young couples separated as a result
of “romance.” Whereupon the young
married men made a new ruling, and
now the bachelors, when they long for
society, find it among the unmarried.
A married man, if disposed to flirt,
finds a restraining influence in his
wife, but a bachelor has no such hand-
fcap. I should say am old bachelor
| should be permitted no lady company
; save that of widows, who, of all wom-
i en, are most capable in handling old
bachelors.—E. W. Howe's Monthly.
Long Journey for Nothing
This is the story of an absent-mind-
ed professor. But among Stories about
absent-minded professors it must hold
high place. The professor is J. B.
Aderman., He teaches at the Univer-
sity of Sidney, In Australla. Recently
he arrived In London as one of the
delegates to the congress of the em-
pire universities. Then Professor Ad-
erman discovered an error. At first he
was slightly puzzled, then alarmed and
then probably as humorously embar-
rassed as It is good for a man ever to
be humorously embarrassed. He found
that he had miscalculated by a year
the opening of the universities’ con-
gress and that it will not open till
June, 1926. Professor Aderman trav-
eled 24,000 miles before he discovered
his error.
Air Mails and Ireland
Every proposal for the inauguration
of an alr mail service is welcome, if
for no other reason than because it
turns thought away from the use of
airplanes for war purposes. Hence
the announcement that it is hoped to
start such a service between Belfast,
Ireland, and England in March next is
especially gratifying because it may
also tend to eement the two peoples
more closely together. It is said that
already two airplanes have been pur-
chased and that a third has been or-
dered. With these it is intended to
carry on an all-the-year-round service.
This will enable letters posted In Bel-
fast in the evening to be delivered in

Tax to Support Science
Commerce and industry will be re-
quired to contribute to the financial
support of a scientific research in
France, if a measure passed by the
chamber of deputies is also approved
by the senate. The bill provides for a
tax of five centimes on each 100 francs
pald in salaries by industrial and com-
mercial concerns. The sum which the
tax would raise for French scientific
laboratories Is estimated at 14,000,000
francs a year, This is about $700,000,

Phones Give Warning of Fire Damp
in Mine.
Hundreds of inventors have applied
their brains to the matter of finding
a certain means of detecting fire damp
the cause of such a large proportion of
mine disasters. So far no completely
reliable method has been found; but
it is believed that a development of
the latest idea will solve the problem.
This idea consists in the use of a
pair of telephones of a delicate kind,
one of which is placed in the upper
galleries, where the air is known to
be pure, while the other is fixed in the
ower workings. Wires from each
lead to a central instrument.
Beside each of the telephones is a
pitch-pipe into which a current of air
is blown by a fan. The two pipes are
tuned to give exactly the same musiec-
al note.
So long as all is well only one note
is received and given out to the central
telephone; but directly fire damp oc-
curs the air supplied by the fan to the
pipe in the lower workings becomes
changed in quality and this alters the
note very slightly.
That is, the upper pipe, of course,
remains unchanged, and the result Is
that instead of a single clear note the
central instrument emits a discordant
noise which immediately attracts the
attention of the man in charge, warn-
ing him that there is fire damp in the
lower galleries.—Exchange.
MEDICAL.
What My Neighbor Says
Is of Interest to Bellefonte Folks.
When one has had the Hiisfortune
to suffer from backache, headaches,
dizziness, urinary disorders and other
kidney ills—and has found relief from
all this sickness and suffering, that
person’s advice is of untold value to
friends and neighbors. The following
case is only one of many thousands,
but it is that of a Bellefonte resident.
Who could ask for a better example ?
E. T. Spicer, blacksmith, 222
E. Logan St., says: “Heavy lift-
ing put my kidneys in poor condition
and I had such sharp twinges across
my back, I could hardly breathe when
I went to straighten from a stooped
position. The ache in my back often
became so intense, I could scarcely
move. My kidneys were weak, too,
and I had to get up nights to pass the
kidney secretions. I became drowsy
and I couldn’t do justice to my work.
Headaches also made me miserable.
After using one box of Doan’s Pills,
from the Mott Drug Co., my kidneys
were healthy.”
