Notes and News.

nice stepper.

Look out for the Emporium shirt |
waist man. He is soon due. The |
chemise man has come in advance of j
the shirt waist man. He is striped and |
looks like an escaped convict at a dist- j
ance.
As a proof that a thin woman is not
so much effected by the warm weather
as her more plump sister, one has only
to note that the former doesn't don
thosecatchingopen work yokes as often .
as the latter. —Ex.
The coaches used on the W. N. Y. &
P. and the Allegheny Valley railroads
are being shipped to eastern points.
They will be repainted and re-lettered
and will be made to conform to the P.
R. R. system.
Some newspaper rises to sensibly re
mark: "There is but one joh open to
the youth who smokes cigarettes, and
that is to kill potato bugs with his j
breath. Few people want a cigarette
fiend any closer than the potato patch."
Sol Bloom, a Chicago music publish
er, brought suit for $50,000 damages
against the Union restaurant and hotel

clad in a shirt waist and minus a coat.

waist question has been brought before
a court.
A young mail in this town, says the
Canonsburg Notes, gives the following
advice: "There is nothing that tends
to shorten the lives of old people and
to injure their health so maeli as the
practice of sitting up late evenings,
especially if their is a grown-up
daughter in the family.
Last week W. B. Thompson's little
daughter Dorothy, while playing at the

isters to the floor, a distance often feet,
striking on its head. It was feared for
some time that she sustained fatal in
juries. We are pleased to state that
the injuries are not dangerous and the
little one is almost recovered.
The editor of the Venango Spectator,
a Democratic anti-Sibley paper has re
fused to put Mr. Emery's name as can
didate for Congressman at the head of
his columns unless he declares himself
for Bryan for President. Mr. Emery
will have to make his platform a little
more explicit before he gets the undi
vided support of the Democracy. And
in case he comes out for Bryan, will the
"Insurgents" support him?—McKean
Miner.
The trouble with the majority of
young men is the fact that they have
learned to squander more money each
| week before they arrive at their major-
I ity than they can well earn. They are
! ashamed to bo supposed to exercise
| economy. They must smoke, chew,
| drink and get in some way or other
| everything they see anyone else having.
I When they get ready to start a home
| for themselves they find their stock in
\ trade is a bundle of expensive habits
j and an empty pocketbook.—New Beth
| lehem Vindicator.
The Bradford Era says: "Try as
| they will the Emery people cannot ex
plain to the public in a satisfactory
' manner why they assisted in nomina
! ting Hon. J. C. Sibley for Congress on
: the straight Republican ticket at the
| spring primary election and why they
| are now so strenuously opposing him.
! The average Pennsylvanian is a stick
ler for fair play. He certainly cannot
be favorably impressed by the kind of
double-dealing which the Emery con
tingent has been playing during the
present political season."
