Beautiful Little (iranere.
Nestling among the hills, three
miles to the west of Mt. Jewett, lies a
busy little village which has sprung
into existence within the past two
months, says the Mt. Jewett News.
About the first of April the Rich Lum
ber (Jo., formerly of Gardeau, Pa.,
commenced building a railroad from
Mt. Jewett down into the woods to the
westward and two weeks later the
first houses in Grenere were com
menced. The work has gone on with
out cessation and to-day the efforts of
the workers are crowned with success
and the pretty town stands as a result.
In this little village of two months
growth are some 45 dwelling houses,
three or four business places, a large
saw mill, a well equipped hotel, car
house and the offices of the Ricli Lum
ber Co., and Ford Bros., owners of the
saw mill. There i also a hard wood
mill in course ofert ition and a planing
mill will be added tr. the plant of Ford
Bros The populatit nof the place is
nearly 300, including i \en, women and
children.
The Rich Lumber Co., which owns
the South Branch railroad and brings
down the logs for cutting, formerly
had a town at Gardeau, Pa., and the
railroad and equipment has been
brought from that place. The com
pany is composed of the two Rich
brothers. Their railroad is about six
miles in length and will be extended
three or four miles the present season,
with additions in the future as the cut
extends further into the woods. They
have two engines now in use and a
train with passenger coach attached,
makes two trips daily to Mt. Jewett
and return. Here connection is made
with the various railroads, the Erie and
the B. R & P., however, securing most
of the business. The office building of
the company has just been completed
and is fitted up as conveniently as any
in the large cities. L. G. Wilson is
superintendent of the railroad as well
as ofthe Rich Lumber Co. The monthly
pay roll of the company is from §IO,OOO
to §12,000.
Buckwalter Briefs.
Fred Norton spent Sunday with his
parents.
There was a surprise party at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. R. Bliss, on Sat
urday evening in honor of their son,
who is in the employ of C. B. Howard
& Co. A good time was had until a
late hour when refreshments were
served and all departed for their
respective homes, well satisfied that it
had been an evening well spent.
Dr. Baker would rather go up the
railroad than togo up the public road.
I wonder why ?

last week by seeing A. Kresge running
up and down the road with a death
like grip on the handiest place on his
trousers. On investigation his neigh
bors discovered that several bees had
comfortably lodged in his pistol pocket.

Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a "lady in this
country. "Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest tests, but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed incessantly and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing from us a
bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery
for consumption, and was so much re
lieved on taking first dose that she
slept all night; and with two bottles
has been absolutely cured. Her name
is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus writes W.

i after three years of suffering. He
I says:"l have not sufficient command

nothing but death would relieve me of
my suffering, in June, 1891, Mr.
