Fathers Meag her, Ridgway; O'Hern, Driftwood; Cogsrove, Smethport; Mackin, Kersey; Becker, Port Allegany; Zubryeski, Adrian. Rev. Father O'Hern preached a fine sermon, Monday evening, to a large and appreciative audience. The forty hour devotion came to a close Tuesday morning. Rev. Father Becker sang High Mass, while the choir rendered Battmam's Mass in G, in an exceptionally fine manner. After the services Tuesday morning, many of Father Meagher's old friends called at the Rectory to pay their regards and shake hands with their former respected pastor. Pennsylvania and the Lake Trade. The announcement that the Penn sylvania Railroad would soon construct a line from a point on the Philadelphia & Erie railroad to Buffalo, thus making a direct connection of its system with that important lake port, has been re ceived with much interest in all parts of the country. For many years the Pennsyluauia has maintained a close connection with Buffalo, both by the Western New York and Pennsylvania, which connects with the Philadelphia and Erie at Emporium and other points, and by steamer service on the lakes from Erie. The more direct con nection which the Pennsylvania now proposes to make will not create any new railroad problems or unduly an tagonize any of the lines which now have termini in Buffalo. The construction of a road of its own by the Pennsylvania is in line with the policy of the company., Many years ago the Pennsylvania secured fine lake port facilities at Erie, in this State, and a very heavy traffic has been and will be handled there. The busi ness done on the Great Lakes has out grown any estimate or prediction of even a few years ago, and it has be come necessary to adopt new means of taking care of it. The purchase of the Erie and Western Transportation Company, with its fine line of lake steamers and remarkably well-equip ped terminal property at Buffalo and other points on the lakes, will affort' an opportunity to the Pennsylvania to increase the lake tonnage of this line, to the advantage of both Buffalo and Erie, and will give the proposed Buf falo branch as good terminals as there are in that city, which species of pro perty has for many years been very valuable. Aside from its importance as a lake port and the Eastern outlet for the products of the Northwest and the whole region of country north of the Ohio river and east of the Rocky Mountains, there has been a great in crease in manufactures in and about Buffalo since the water power of Niaga ra Falls was made available for that purpose. The trafficjof the Great Lakes, which now exceeds by far that of any other inland body of water, will continue to grow vastly and its volume cannot now be estimated. The tonnage pass ing through the Salt Ste Marie canals last year exceeded 25,000,000 tons, of which 22,252,000 tons went through the American canal. Grain shipments alone amounted to 90,000,000 bushels and the iron ore and coal traffic approached 20,000,000 tons. Nearly §300,000,000 of merchandise and pro ducts of the soil and mine found their way to a market through these canals during the season of 1899. —Philadel- phia Press. Bucklen's Arnica Salvo .

She is the girl that will help you save money in after life and will make your home neat and happy. When you can support her ask her to marry you and if she re fuses you ask her again. WASHINGTON.

Glorious News Comes from Dr. D. 15. Cargile, of Washita, I. T. He writes: "Four bottles of Electric Ritters has cured Mrs. Brewer of scrotula. which had caused her great suffering for years. Terrible sores would break out on her head and face, and the best doctors could give help; but her cure is complete and her health is excellent." This shows what thousands have proved—that Electric Hitter is the best blood purifier known. It's the supreme remedy for eczema, tetter, salt rheum, ulcers, boils and run ning sores. It stimulates liver kidneys and bowels, expels poisons, helps diges tion, builds up the strength. Only 50 cents. Sold by L. Taggart, Druggist. Guaranteed. They are all subdued but Pettigrew and a tew of that sort. It is very hard to stand idly by and see our dear ones suffer while awaiting the arrival of the doctor. An Albany (N. Y.) dairyman called at a drugstore there for a doctor to cotne and see his child, then very sick with croup. Not finding the doctor in, he left word for him to come at once on his return. He also bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which lie hoped would give some relief until the doctor should arrive. In a few hours he returned, saying the doctor need not come as the child was much better. The druggist, Mr.Otto Scholz, says the family has since recommended Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to their neighbors and friends until he has a constant demand for it from that part of the country.
