Big Free Mid-Way, Buffalo Attraction Increases In Popularity—Large Attendance. The merry Big Free Midway in Buf falo is the magnet that is attracting thousands of pleasure seekers who come again and again finding at each visit something new and interesting. This Midway has become a resort for peo ple who seek innocent amusement and its prices are within the most humble. The performances are presented on a scale of magnificence never before at tempted at free street shows. The at tendance has averaged 17500 daily since the opening, six weeks ago. Among the most notable of the one hundred big shows are the Streets of Cairo, Sing Sing Prison, Idols of Art, Streets of India, Trained Animal Ex hibition, German Village, White Top Palm Garden, Heaven and Hell, Gypsy Camp, Persian Beauty Show, Palais de la Danse, Arctic Cava and Athletic Auditorium. So much has been said and printed about Midways and street fairs that it would seem to the casual observer that little more remains to be said. But the more careful student of methods and modes of amusing the public realizes that as long as Midways continue to be popular, so long will there be a large variety of topics to discuss about them. That stret fairs are beneficial is no longer questioned. Their many and groat advantages are now universality commended. Worm at Potatoes. The devastation wrought by the potato bug has been dwarfed into in significance this year by the ravages of a small black worm that is working great havoc in all parts of the state. Farmers discovered its presence when the potatoes became of marketable size. It is now more plentiful than ever. The growers know of no way to combat it. It is likely that the depart ment of agriculture will be asked to suggest some method of ridding the stalks of the pest. The potatoes have also suffered during the past week from hot weather and lack of rain. It is doubtful if there will be a full crop in any district in Pennsylvania. What A Tale It Tells.

In 1897 this paint was in good condition. Lead and oil, S4OO, three years. Dovoe $350, ten years. Yours truly, 44 F. W. DEVOE & Co. A Warning Against Impurity. Our way through the world is beset by many insidious snares and pitfalls. Eternal vigilance is the price of moral safety. Of the many temptations which assail mankind none are more powerful or more widely prevalent than those which lead to sins of impurity and im morality. Unless we guard zeal ously our standards of purity it is very easy for them to become cor rupted. What streams of evil influence, especially upon the characters of the young, radiate from a life staiued by immorality! and on the other hand, who can estimate the power for good of a life of unquestioned purity? There is pronounced need in this community for these warning words against impurity. A very large portion of those who hold aloof from the church, do so, not because the church is failing in her mission, but because she fulfills it too well,namely, by holding up a standard of righteousness which many persons know too well is a condemnation of their own impure lives. It is often a satisfaction to such if they can keep themselves in countenance by fastening charges of hypocrisy upon those who are identified with the church. But to all moral delinquents there ever comes the authoritative assurance from a righteous and merciful God: "When the wicked man turneth away from his wick edness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive." —Emmanuel Church Parish News. Their Becret is Out. . All Sadieville, Ky ~ was curious to learn the cause of the vast improvement in the health of Mrs. S. P.

The Kind You Have Always Bought There's Money in doats. Edward L. Arnold, who lives near Geneva, N. Y., read in a De partment of Agriculture report that there was money in the Angora goat. Accordingly he purchased a small flock, including a full-blood ed buck, for which he paid $250. The buck was kept alone in a large box stall. Mr. Arnold went into the box stall last Monday to do some work. He had in an inside pocket to his coat a wallet which contained a considerable sum of money. Completing the work, Mr. Arnold went to the house, and a few miuutes later discovered that the wallet was missing. After an extended search the wallet was found in the buck's stall. The wallet was spread open and the money gone. The goat was sus pected of eating it and was killed. There was in that goat, mutilated, but still redeemable, seven SIOO bills, four SSO bills, five S2O bills, three $lO bills ono $5 bill, and one $2 bill. $1,037 in all. Emporium Furniture Co.
