If reports are true, they were successful in landing a few, though, thank the Lord, there are still men who cannot be bought.—Franklin News. In the McKean Miner's report of the Farmers' Institute held in that city last week, we notice the following flattering mention of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Seger: "Mr. W. T. Seger was warmly wel comed by the audience. Mr. Seger is a thorough musician. Mrs. Seger recited 'The Day of Judgment,' then, after much applause, 'Money Musk,' accom panied by Mr. Seger on the piano. One can scarcely realize that Mrs Seger is not a professional, her style, her man ner, show much study as well as talent." nr. Hawks' lecture. Sparkling with wit and humor and' teeming with sunshine and smiles was the lecture delivered at Library Hall last night by A. W. Hawks, of Balti more, under the auspices of the Louis ville Lyceum and Alumnae Club. Mr. Hawks chose for his subject "Sunshine and Shadow," and the man ner in which he handled it stamped him as a speaker of extraordinary abil ity. His lecture is irresistibly amusing, and every sentence is punctuated with a pun or witticism. The audience was large and the speaker was frequently applauded.—Courier - Journal, Louis ville, Ky., Jan. 27, 1900. A New Bank A new bank has been organized in Ridgway with the school children as depositors, and the teachers of the bor ough schools as directors and officers. It is called the Ridgway School Savings Bank. It is a department which has been tried in other schools for years with great success In Warren, this State, the deposits now amount to about $6,000. The children are not only taught business forms and practice by making out their own checks and deposit slips and having their own bank book or card, but it trains them in habits of economy. It makes clear the lesson that to spend less than they receive is prosperity, while to spend more is fi nancial misery.—Ridgway Democrat. Hiss Howell Appears at Scranton to Refute the Allegation that She is Insane. Scranton, Pa.. Jan. 26 —Evidence tending to prove that Mies Jennie Howell is insane, as is alleged by her brother, Banker Franklin Howell, was taken today here before Commissioner C. R. Pitcher and a jury of six. Miss Howell appeared in court accompanied by her white-haired fiance, Edward Dean, whom she proposes to marry and share her quarter of a million dol lars with despite the protests of her ' family and friends. Dr. J. F. Ackerman, of Asbury Park, was the first witness. He attended Miss Howell during the summer of 1899 at Asbury Park, and had a consultation with the late Dr. Da Costa, of Phila delphia. over Miss Howell's case. They concluded, he says, that she was suffer ing from chorea, or St. Vitus dance, and that she was mentally affected. On cross-examination Dr. Ackerman was shown a check of §651 which he received from Miss Howell in payment of medical services, and Attorney Newcomb asked him to explain how he had permitted himself to take money from a person whom he considered mentally unbalanced. The doctor an swered that he believed he had sent his bill to Misß Howell in care of her brother. The same question was put to Dr. Leet. Owing to the illness of Franklin Howell the date for the next hearing was not set Edward Dean was formerly a resi dent of Emporium and will be remem bered by many of our citizens. Miss Howell and Dean, accompanied by maid, left the city together Jan. 29, for Philadelphia, and it is supposed they are bound for New Jersey or Del aware to be married.

The liars club held three sessions last week, one in the store, one in Pap Hlod get's shop, and one in the post-office. There was some "hot one's" sprung, llanscome told some good ones on his re turning from St Marys. He probably met some fine members in the profession as he said he made the trip without tak ing a drink of the beverage intended to make men happy. All members pres ent doubted the story and he was fined the usual amount. Johnson said a few words on killing coons, but was called to order by the chair. One member told of catching two coons in a fare race, after two dogs gave up the chase. That mem ber held the floor for an hour and eighty minutes, without any dispute. Pap Blodget and Reidin said they hadn't told a lie this year. They were ordered suspended for thirty days and fined seven cents each, which of course neither of them could raise that amount. So a a collection was taken up and the amount raised, after which business was again re sumed as though nothing had happened. The name of E. L. Locy was acted upon and he was duly elected. He will ride our goat at our next meeting. Pap Berfield was ordered on the pen sion list, as he is getting too old to keep up with John Logue and Harve Smith. The old man says his will is as good as ever. The club agreed to allow him to try his hand, in case the others should get stuck. The club adjourned to meet next week in Geo. Shafer's wine room. FIDE.

Mail will be delivered to any family ; on or adjacent to the routes, free of all j cost, provided only that a suitable box to receive the mail is put up directly on the routes, in a place that can be con veniently reached by the carrier with out alighting from his buggy. No mail will be delivered unless a box is pro vided to receive it. It will be noticed that the carriers have a daily drive of about 25 miles, and it is hoped that patrons will not delay them on the routes unless it is necessary. Stamps and postal cards may be purchased of the carriers, but it is advised that a supply of these be kept on hand, as they nave not time to wait -while you write your cards and letters. It is the duty of the patrons who ap preciate the service to see that roads are kept in good condition and that the following requests of the First As sistant Postmaster-General in regard to boxes be complied with: "It is particularly desired by the De partment that the boxes put up by the patrons of the delivery shall be of such a character as to be secure, not only from the weather, but from mischievous or malicious depredation. The United SUites mail should not be deposited in any but an appropriate receptacle, property labeled and protected." Watch the carriers and see what time they arrive at your house every day. The time will vary but little from one clay to another. Get your mail out of the box as soon as possible after they leave it. They will take Applications for Mon ey Orders, give receipts for the money, and deliver the Order to patron on next trip.

The rate of postage on letters of ordi nary weight, directrd to points on the route, will be 2 cents. The one cent or "drop letter" rate on first-class matter is done away with on the routes.

Q. Judd & Co. Emporium, Pa. Dear Sirs: Your business is, when a house burns down, to give the owner some money to build a new one. It is a good business. Queer that the world got on so long without it. We paint the one that burnt down and the new one too. What is better, we paint the houses that don't burn down. You insure the houses that burn- we insure the houses that don't. You have the ashes and smoke; all the houses are ours. We paint lead and zinc; Devoe. We sell the paint to painters; we don't paint. Lead and oil is the old-fashion paint. Devoe is zinc ground in with the lead and linseed oil—same proportions as used by U. S. Government: the best paint in the world; and the cheapest, because the work is all done by ma chinery. Nobody wants poor paint; there's lots of it, though, in the world. Yours truly, 19 F.
