THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA.
TA8 -AMERICAN EXCURSION.
' Visit to the Pan-American Exposition and
Niagara Falls Aug. 20, 1900, for $18.
Bloomsburg Normal School.
Bloomsburg, Fa., July 17, 1901.
At the request of students and
fiends who have taken the Normal
chool excursion to Washington, D.
arrangements have been perfected
Mr an excursion to the Tan-American
'position, at Buffalo. A special
nun will leave the Philadelphia &
leading R. R. Station, Bloomsburg,
t 6530 on the morning of August 20,
.ad arrive in Buffalo in the afternoon
f same day, (time not yet tleter-
ained). The train will go by way of
ViUiamsport and Rochester ovsr the
he New York Central R. R. This is
he most direct route to Buffalo from
Uoomsburg, and with special train the
est time can be made.
Tally-ho coaches and carriages will
ie in readiness on the arrival of the
rain to take the entire party to the
;otel at the Pan-American grounds,
aid the drive will be four miles
arough Buffalo, including Delaware
Vvenue, the fashionable residence
.treet of the city. Those who prefer
0 do so can remain on the train in
.tead of taking carriage in Buffalo,
aid will be taken to a point near the
lOtel.
The party will be located at Stat
er's Hotel, which is within one hun
Ired yards of the Lincoln Parkway
iJate to the Tan-American grounds,
md within three squares of the Elm
rood entrance. The Lincoln Park
fay Gate is never crowded, there
teing no street cars running to it.
Street car lines between the grounds
ind all parts of the city, pass in front
if the hotel. This hotel is the largest
ind best managed in the vicinity of
:he Exposition. It is a temporary
structure, and is plainly furnished; but
he rooms are comfortable, have good
jeds, matting on floors, all necessary
:onveniences and everthing clean,
vhile the table and all the service is
excellent. I stopped at this hotel two
lays and while there visited many
ithers near the grounds and in the
:ity, and, barring the plainness of the
ooms, I consider it a good represent
ative of the three-dollar a-day class.
It is patronized by the best people
rom all sections. There are cheaper
ilaces of entertainment, but I found
tone of them where considering the
bod served, the character of the
:ooking, the accommodations, and the
unoundings, I could recommend
.hem as safe stopping places. Our
arty will occupy rooms on first and
econd floor, two in a room.
There is great advantage in being
ear the grounds. It obviates the
lecessity of waiting for street cars,
md standing in crowded cars when
itigued with a day's sight seeing; and
i the morning when the cars are
rowded with people going to the
ixposition the advantage is equally
;reat. Besides it saves car fare. For
hese reasons Statler's Hotel was
.hosen.
Lodging, breakfast, and dinner in
the evening, have been arranged tor
it this hotel. Each excursionist will
je expected to provide his own lunch,
m the train going and coming, and
while at the Exposition.
On Tuesday, the day of arrival,
hose who prefer to do so can visit
he Exposition in the evening after
linner (which can be had at any time
etween 6 and 10 p. m.). and enjoy
he magnificent electrical display. The
.rounds close at 11 p. m. Wednes
lay may be spent at the Exposition.
On Thurday it has been arranged
or the party to visit Niagara Fa'.ls.
This trip includes the wonderful ride
y electric cars on the Canadian side
.long the gorge to Queenstown, thence
.cross Niagara River to Lewistown,
hence by electric cars through the
;orge past the whirlpool, the rapids,
ind other points of interest. Special
rain for this excursion to the Falls
ill start in front of the hotel about
a. m., and excursionist can stop off
it any point of interest en route. Any
jerson desiring to visit the Falls on
vVednesday or Friday, instead of
thursday can do so without extra
.oat. The Exposition may be visited
gain 111 the evening, or the electrical
lisplay may be viewed from the
observation tower of the hotel, free of
ost. Friday may be spent at the
exposition: also Saturday forenoon.
On Saturday about noon the ex
cursionists will take train for home,
caching Bloomsburg in the evening.
This excursion costs $ 1 8.00. Tickets
an be had at the Normal School on
nd after August 13th, or they will be
nailed upon request, after tlfat date,
n receipt of price and postage.
WHAT IS INCLUDED.
i. Railroad fare by special train
Hth ways between Bloomsburg and
iHiffalo.
a. Ride to Statler's Hotel in Tal-y-ho
coaches.
3. Conveying of all baggage be
ween train and hotel both on arrival
ind departure in Buffalo.
4. Hotel accommodations in Buf
ulo from dinner Tuesday evening,
OASTOIIXA.
Beu the The Kind You Have Always Bought
Slrutmt Iff .SXJJT
of
August 20th, to Saturday morning
(including breakfast), August 24th.
5. Excursion to Niagara Falls,
Queenstown, Lewistown, etc., as de
scribed. 6. Tickets will contain coupons
for each item mentioned. The ex
cursionist need not be concerned
about any of the details.
7. Excursionists will be taken on
between Bloomsburg and William
sport, at Danville and West Milton,
provided notice is given beforehand.
From Williamsport the cost will be
$17.00. No reduction will be made
to points lying between these two sta
tions, and no stops for passengers
after leaving Williamsport.
WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED.
1. Each excursionist will purchase
his own tickets for entrance to the
Exposition. This is a fixed expense.
Some will desire to enter ottener than
others. So it is not feasible to in
clude this.
2. For similar reasons lunch is
not included.
3. No street car tickets are in
cluded. None are needed.
4. No stop-off privileges, nor ex
tension of time, can be granted. The
two days a half and the four evenings
afford ample time to see the entire
Exposition. I believe more time
would be superfluous for the average
person. Those who desire to prolong
their visit, however, to ten days, can
do so by paying $13.00 extra, but this
must be arranged for when ticket is
bought. This will give them the same
hotel accommodations, and enable
them to return on regular train Thurs
day, August 29th.
5. There is no reduction for chil
dren. 6. No guides arc furnished. It is
easy for anyone, by the aid of maps
of the Exposition grounds, which will
be distributed on the train, to make
out a plan of procedure for himself.
All will not desire to spend the same
amount of time on the same features
of the Exposition.
A REQUEST.
Please read this article carefully. I
am arranging this excursion by re
quest of friends, not for profit, and I
am using my vacation time to do it.
I do not want to take the time to an
swer unnecessary questions. All
needed information is here given. In
my opinion, this excursion provides
ample time for anyone to visit the
Exposition without being hurried, and
is as low in price as is consistent with
good service.
It is necessary, In order that I may
perfect my railroad, hotel, and other
arrangements, to know as soon as pos
sible who are going. So please notify
me at once. The sooner I receive
your decision, the better care I can
take of you.

The Berwick Store Company is
iu need of laborers. Large posters,
offering $1.25 pet day, have been
posted throughout the county, but
the answers were so few that the
price has been advanced to $1.50
per day. Iwen this has not
had the desired result, and the
Company is still calling for help.
They are going to build a large
brick addition to their already mam
moth store building, f.nd it is for
this purpose that men are desired.

Does Advertising Pay ?
John Wanamaker Spends $1,000 a Day on
His Philadelphia Store.
The question is so frequently asked
by business men, "Does advertising
pay?" John Wanamaker pays over
$1,000 a day just for advertising his
Philadelphia store. He uses a page
advertisement in five ditferent daily
papers of Philadelphia. They are as
follows : Tress, $60,000 ; Ledger,
$60,000 ; Times, $50,000 ; North
American, $75,000, and the Evening
Telegraph, $50,000. Up to about a
month ago Mr. Wanamaker was using
a page in the Record at the rate of
$97,000 a year, which would have
made an annual expenditure of $382,
500. When ha wanted to renew his
advertising contract with the Record
the publishers asked $25,000 more,
or a total of $112,500. Mr. Wana
maker refused to pay the amount,
thinking no one else would pay that
sum for the page. The proposition
was made to Lit Brothers, who ac
cepted without a moment's hesitation
and they are now paying the enor
mous sum of $112,500 for thi use of
a page in the Record for one vear.
The circulation of the Record now
runs about 190,000 copies a day. If
advertising does not pay how can
firms spend fortunes every year lor a
single page of a newspaper ?
Special Arrangements for Through Bag
gage Checks.
For Participants in Philadelphia & Reading's
Atlantie City Excursions, Aug. 1 and 11.
Arrangements have been made
whereby Excursionists purchasing
Excursion tickets to Atlantic City on
either of above named Excursions,
can by the payment of ten cents
additional to cover transfer through
Philadelphia in each direction of same,
have their baggage checked through
to Atlantic City. Full particulars of

Worm at Potatoes-
The devastation wrought by the
potato bug has been dwarfed into in
significance this year by the ravages
of a small black worm that is working
great havoc in all parts of the State.
Farmers discovered its presence when
the potatoes became of marketable
size. It is now more plentiful than
ever. The growers know of no way
to combat it. It is likely that the de
partment of Agriculture will be asked
,to suggest some method of ridding the
stalks of the pest.
The potatoes have also suffered
during the past week from hot weather
and lack of rain. It is doubtful if
there will be a full crop in any district
of Pennsylvania.
Between 500 and 600 counterfeit
pennies are being received dailv at
the New York Sub-Treasury. The
authorities believe the bogus coin
makers are working day and night.
It is thought that the counterfeiters
are working in Philadelphia. A
large percentage of them are passed
off on the Chinese laundrymen, they
being easy to "work."

frogs immediately after a heavy shower.
Some of theme were scarcely half nn iueh
long, but all were lively. There were so
many frogs in the roadway that bicyclists
found riding difficult. Professor Roberts

generally accepted now by the scientilic
world that frog spawn could be carried up

Yonkers Statesman.
A man talks about owning his business.
But, as a matter of (net his business owns
him His whole life is regulated by the de
mands of the business. The time at which
he rises, his breakfast hour, the time given
to meals, are all determined by business ob
ligations. He rushes through lunch because
he "can't spare the time from business" to
eat leisurely. He Won't take a rest because
he is needed at the store or office. He is in
fact an absolute slave to business. The re
sults which follow this slavery are to lie seen
on every hand. Men dyspeptic, irritable,
nervous, with drawn faces and hollow eyes,
sit at the desk or stand behind the counter
until they collapse in a fit of sickness, or are
taken away by heart failure. Those who
cannot escape the exactions of business will
find a friend in Dr. I'ierce's Golden Medica
Discovery. It strengthens the stomach, in
creases the action of the blood-making
glands, increasing the vitality and physical
vigor. It makes men s'rong and prevents
those business break downs which so often
terminate fatally.

at a colonial ball give by the members of the
sinait set. Interest centres in Margaret
Wintlirop, wh was to have been married on
June first to a man who "set up for a ssint
and turned out to be the devil himself in
disguise." His particular sin was running
away with nn actress. To a girl of Margarets
spirit this was crushing, but her pride was as
strong as her love and she attended the ball
nnd tried to appear as if nothing had happen
ed. In this she was helped by Francis Bcllimy

innocent girl. When a few weeks later in
vitations were received for Margaret's mar
riage to Francis Bellamy on the very day
set for the other wedding, a profound sensa
tion was created, though only the two them
selves knew of the strange compact they had
entered into. I low it turned out is most en
tertainingly and vividly told by Niss Roberts.
