Lightning Plays Peculiar Pranks.
A correspondent writes from Cou
derspot to Williamsport Bulletin, as
follows:
During tno the thunder storm at
Coudersport, a particularly sharp,
nearby thunder report caused many
people about town to shudder. The
lightning evidently struck the earth
near the vicinity of West and Sixth
streets, as several residents in that
neighborhood experienced quite acute
shocks. At the residence of R. L.
Nichols, the electric wires were dam
aged and the covers of the kitchen
stove were raised from the stove. Mrs.
F. J. Andrews received quite a shock,
rendering her nearly unconscious and
j quite preceptably affected her eyesight
I for a short time. F. J. Andrews saw
: what appeared to be a ball of fire run
, ning alons the fence at the rear of his
'residence. At the same time of the
| stroke F. L. Andrews saw in a room of
1 his residence flashes resembling sheets
'of fire. His family also were victims
| of the lightning's pranks, and several
| families in the neighberhood were
badly frightened.

I ness, aged about 81 years. Mrs. Man
j tania was a native of Columbia, her
maiden name being- Myers. She was
| in many respects a remarkable woman,
! perserving her faculties to the last.
| She was an accomplished pianist and
good singer, and in her younger days
J at social functions was often called
j upon to entertain the company, which
J she could well do. Even up to a brief
j period she had not lost lier proficiency
|in the musicial line. The remains will
j be taken to Columbia for interment in
I the family burial place at Mt. Bethel
cemetery.—York Dispatch, July 16.
J Mrs. Mantania, who formerly resided
j in Emporium, had many friends here,

The following bill having been ap
proved by Governor Stone is now a
law: "That no person or persons shall
sell tobacco in any form to any person
under the age of 19 years; that no per
son or persons shall by purchase, gift
or other means furnish tobacco in any
form to a person under 16 years. Any
person violating the provisions of this
act shall be guilty of a misdemeanor
and upon conviction shall be sentenced
to pay a fine not exceeding one hundred
dollars, or to undergo confinement in
the county jail for a period not exceed
ing thirty days, or both, as the court
may determine."
Jos. DeLong, who has been rusticat
ing at the Warner House for several
months past, came into our sanctum
last Friday, much elated over the large
catch of black bass made by Peter
Shoup and recorded in our last issue.
He said he would chaperon a party on
Saturday, and after securing the rod
from the lucky fisherman named above,
proceded to the waters of the Sinnama
boning. After spending the day, he
returned about mid night, very tired.
DeLong lost the rest of his party after
they were a short timeout and was not
quite as successful as the others. He
caught no fish but managed to get wet.
While it is the most familiar sight in
continental European countries, says
the Philadelphia Times, to see women
working in the fields very often per
forming the most laborous and menial
tasks, there is very little of that sort of
in thing America". In some out-of-the
way place a Pennsylvania Dutch farm
er may get his wife and daughters to
work in the hay field or the potatoe
patch, but they are not fond of these
employments. There is such scarcity
of farm help this year, however, that
in many parts of the State the women
have had to turn out to save the crops.
It is the common complaint everywhere
that the unusual industrial activity pre
vailing in towns and cities have almost
completely drained the country of farm
labor.
All are earnestly urged to patronize
the "Juniors" at the "Fair" next Wed
nesday.

Letter to U. A. Palmer.
Emporium, Pa.
Dear Sir: There wa« a time when it
paid a painter to paint lead and oil,
and fight shy of anything else. That
was when the market was full of poor
paints, and zinc was unknown.
Now zinc has come in, lead and oil
must give way—it is too short lived.
There are two ways to use zinc; you
can mix it in with lead in a tub, or buy
Devoe lead and zinc, which is ground
together by machinery.
If you mix yonr own lead and zinc,
you gain something; if you buy Devoe
you gain more, because machinery
does better work than hand mixing.
Experience is worth something. We've
had IJ6 years of it.
Yours truly,
43 P. w. DEVOE & Co.
