Tho appraohing winter btinga sat
isfaction to hundrods of mon in Uio
mountains along both branches of tbo
Susquehanna who follow that most
ancient of calling B-woodoraf t. A cold
white wintet brings happiness to tho
rougg woodsmen, to whom it moans
steady work in tho forest with good pay
and plenty to eat until April nud tlion
another or so of rafting down tho
timber thus out. Tho great operations
whore acre up m aero of pine trees aro
felled and hewn aro not as numerous
as forinurly, lor each clearing means
so innoh ol tho forest gono for all time
or at least for decades, for nature can
not rcjilaoe in. a year what man des
troys is as many days. Still, although
tho output of tho West Branch timber
lands is steadily decreasing thoro yet
remains sullloient of tho old timo in
dustry to clearly portray the simple
modes and customs of thowoik and its
followers.
Tho red-shirtud giants with groat
gaudy wooleu comforters, knit by their
sweethosrts, wound around thoir necks
and with thoir leet encased in heavy
woolen stockings reaching to tho knee,
without shoe which would only pinch
and frostbite their feet, or at most
shod only yith rubber overshoes and
wearing heavy trousers supported by
another loud-colored ecarf wound twice
orthrioe around tho waist and tied
with long dangling ends, aro familiar
sights along the Susquehanna. Wheth
er hard at work felling trees in the
clearing or scatod on a log sled liko
some modern Aohilles dragging a
Hector of the forest in triumph, the
woodsman 19 ever lull 01 mo and ani
mal spirits. Eating prodigious quan
Hies 01 iooa in tho moBt primitivo
way and consuming all the liquor ho
can obtain without regard to its qual
ity tho lumberman enjoys life to tho
utmost. To pass tho long winter
ovenings wheu other resources fail he
has always two courses open to him
either to play "penny poke" or to go
to tuu noarcat, revival, tne protracted
meetings new by devout Methodists,
usually in tho publio school house and
continuing weeks, frequently months,
without cessation. And to tho credit
of tho men bo it stated that, although
gonerally holding crudo idoas of relig
ion, tne lumbermen aro most quiet and
orderly dnrine tho services and. some
times moved by the appeals of proachor
and friends, a great rough mountaineer
. may arise and approach tho mourners'
bench.
These, with an occasional chance in
tho way of a spelling bee (at which
force of circumstances compels him to
be but a spectator) or a visit to town
are his solo diversions all through tho
long winter, until spring thaws tho
rivers and melts tho ioy roads. Then
ho replaces his woolen stockings with
heavy boots, in the heels of which aro
set Bteel nails projecting half an inch
and snaipened to a point. "Uorks" is
thoir common bat inexpressive name
Tho nails are to enable tho wearer to
secure a firm footing on a rollug log,
but they sadly mar a o.upet and tho
wooden pavements of the littlo interior
towns are ritMlcd with boles. .
Armed with a "cant hsok" the
mountaineer now becomes a raftsman
and bends his energies toward getting
the timber to maket at Williamsport
or eisowhero. Tho round saw lo?s aro
simply rollod into the, stream to be
carried down by tho current, but tho
squared timber is securely bouud to
gether in platforms about twenty feet
wide and soveral of these platfoims
fastened together form a raft, familiar
to all our readers. When at last tho
raft is ready for sailing a rough board
shanty is built on it and abundance of
straw for bedding, a ehcetiron Btovo
fur cooking and a supply of food com
pletes tho outfit. Then the craft starts
merrily off for her three or four-day
cruise. It is the aume of enjnjment to
slowly glide along the river on oue of
these huge platforms observing magaifi
oent mountain soeuory which cannot
otherwise be seen, for tho streams are
not navigable for any other class of
boats. Very often a whole family will
tnako tho trip, wifo doing tho cooking
for the crow.
As may ho found overywheroa trace
of the tragio crops out frequently and
stories of trouble and sorrow peculiar
to the locality and occupation abound.
One may be recalled. A handsome
young mountaineer had wooed and
won a country maid and tho happy
pair took their tour on a raft, the
young w man'eagor to see tho groat
outside world, of which sho had hoard
so much. Tho raft had two cabins
built upon it, ono for the crew, the
other for the newly raarr od pair. Tho
second night out waB dear ar d moon
light, and tho pilot detorminod to run
on instead of tying up, as is customary.
About midnight they drew near one
of tho largest dams along the river,
and although ovcry effort was made to
get the raft close in by tho thoro so
that it might pass through the long
molined chuto provided lor the purpos
the atago of water was so groat that it
was soon seen tho raft must go ovur
the breast of tho dam. This, though
thrilling, is not necessarily a dangerous
advooturo, as very frequently a raft
will pass over with no more serious
datnago than the straining of the joints
bnt again every timber may bo torn
loose and tho tho men thrown into tho
surging waters. On this occasion the
rauman siauoueu ms initio as near
him as safety would permit, and with
anxiety all awaited tho plunge.
Slowly the long mass of timbers ap
proalhed tho booming cataract the
front section began to curve downward
nnd suddenly disappeared, the second
followed and then tho third, while tho
men on the fourth and -last could plain
ly pee tho timbers jnst ahead stand al
most perpendicular and then right
themselves. Finally tho last seotfon,
upon which wero tho brldo and her
husband, pitched over and almost in
etautly righted itself safe below, but
in that instant tbo long handlo of the
oar had swung around, dospito tho cf
forts of the men and swept tho girl
into tho boiling rapids at tho foot of the
dam. With a wild yell her husband
Bprang after her. The raft swept on
and both wero drowned, but for years
raftsmen have refused to pass that dam
alter nighwaii, and local gossips say
that in timo of Hood the fell rick of the
drowning girl can bo heard above tho
roar of tho falling waters.
Another tale in moro cheerful strain,
is told of tho great Hood of June, 1889,
which devastated the Susquehanna
valley about the sumo lime tho J onus-

town calamity ocourod. A well-to-do
lesidont, wbose hoaso stood oloso to
tho river, had a beautiful danishter ' to
whom a handsomo younc lamberman
had been paying suit. For some rea
son the wooor did not find favor In the
father's eyes and he was forbidden to
communicate tvith the girl. He con
tinued his toil and patiently bided his
time. A fsw days before the flood ho
started up tho river to assist in bung
ing down a raft. Tho raft was duly
started, but the water continued to
rirto to such an extent that it was
deemed advisablo to tie up. This was
found to bo out of the question, as the
flood had covered the "snubbing poet,''
and so the raft drifted od, carried by
the current. Scores of untenanted
house 8 were passed, and they finally
approached tho home of tho young
man's sweetheart. As they drew near
they eaw the whole family upon tbo
roof frantically beseeching for rescue.
Aided by lhe current the crew guided
the raft so that it jnst scraped the eves
of the house, and with ono accord tne
victims began to leap upon the modern
ark. Tho lover, however, seeing that
his Bwretheart was safe, grasped a pike
and refused to let the lather on board,

A Doctor's Oonfesaion.
HE D0E-N T TAKE MUCH MEDICINE AND
ADVISES THE IlEl'ORTEK NOT TO.
"Humbug? Of oourso it is. The
so-called tcience of medicine is a hum
bntr and has been from the time of
Hippocrates to the present. Why the
biggest crank in the Indian tribes is
the medicine man."
"Very frank was the admission, es
pecially so wheu it came from one of
the biggest young physioians of the
city, one whoso practice is among the
thousands, though be has been gradu
ated but a few years," says the Buffalo
Courier. "Very cozy was his olhce
too, with its cheerful grate 'fire, its
Uueen Anne lormture, and lis many
lonnces andeasy-ohairs. He stirred the
fire lazily, lighted a fresh- cigar, and
went on."
'lake tne prescriptions laid down in
tho books and what do you find?
Poisons mainly, and nauseating stuff
that would make a healthy man anin
valid. Why in the world science
should go to poisons for its remedies I
cannot tell, nor oan I find any one who
can.'
"How does a doctor know tho effect
of his medicine?" he asked. "He calls,
prescribes, and goes away. The only
way to judge would be to stand over
the bed and watch the patient. This
caunot be done. So, really, I don't
know bow ho is to tell what good or
hurt he does. Sometiiuo ago, you re
member, the Boston Qlobs sent out a
reporter with a stated set of symptoms
He went to eleven prominent physi
oians and brought back eleven differ
ent prescriptions. This just shows
how much science there is in medicine."
There are looal diseases of various
characters for which nature provides
positive remedies. They may not be
included in the regular physician's list,
perhaps, because of their simplicity,
but tha evidence of their curative
power is beyond dispute. Kidney dis
ease is cured by Warner's Safe Cure, a

the last survivor of the illustrious Ital
ian family of Farnpoe, which has now
b come extinct. Tho h'sfory of this
great hous, dating back to tho thir

When given to tho world tho story will
bo found to touch upon almost overy
great moveroout of tho European
family during tho last four centuries.
Some of tho Fnrn s were about as bad
as mon oonld bo, some wero celebrated
as warriors, soiio were tho most en

their day, others wero poets or wits,
but all wero the mrst pel fret of cour

tbo family to tho very last. The Pal
azra Farcoie, close to the loft bank of
tho Tiber, and not. miny paces away
from tho English College at Rome, is
ono of that city's finest places. Its
foundations wero laid by Pope Paul
III., and it was completed by his
nephew. Pope Paul 111, was indeed
tho founder of this family oT,

the Farncso had been illustrious in his
tory long beforo they had given a Su
premo Pontiff to the Church. Now,
by tho death of this fat old gentleman

family is extinct. That families fo
great as thoo should become in time

A novel creation has been completed
by tho Pullman -works; the' only

the Rav. William D. Walker, Episco
pal uisbop ot tne diocese of Worth

From- eaoh side, midway the' two
exttemes, is a slight projection, Gothic
in form, which rises to the height of
what is known as tho second dcok.
This, Bishop Walker says, is for tho
purpose or giving the car moro tho ap-
pearanco of a church. The car is s!x
ty feet long and ten feet wide. Its in
tmr is finished in oak, after the
Gothio style. At ono end is a room
devoted to the Bishop's use. The
