Is almost sure to hear somebody itsk his or her neighbor why the kl" ss has been smear ed with whiting or soap or something that dulls Its surface completely. All sorts of reasons are hazarded or sug gested. Sometimes It Is stated that It Is done for luck, at others that they did not Intend to leave It dirty. The real explanation Is, however, a simple one. The glass Is dirtied to prevent the illusion of the scene being de stroyed, as It certainly would be If the audience saw in It the reflection of themselves or, worse still, the reflec tion of the people lu the wings carry ing on the business of the stage.—Chi cago Tribune.

Lungache, pains in chest, bronchitis, and similar signs of a cold on the lungs, can be quickly relieved and cured by HAMLINS WIZARD OIL No time should be lost, because lung trouble may easily develop into pneumonia or consumption. Hamlins Wizard Oil, applied to the chest, relieves the pain and in flammation, loosens up the cough and soon cures the disease. "My little girl," writes Rich. W. Thornton of O.uray, Colo., "suffered more or less with a cold on the lungs since her birth, and finally the trouble became serious. No remedies gave relief, until we tried Hamlins Wizard Oil, one bot tle of which permanently cured her." Price 50c and SI.OO. Sold and recommended by L.

Edward Power® and William Neod ! ham, lumbermen employed at one of the Goodyear camps in the Sinnama i honing district, won a wager the other j day in a thrilling manner. They are members of a crew whose business it is j to skid logs to the top of a three mile | chute, which winds and twists its way j down among the ravines and out over ' I black chasm, until it ends on the edge i ; of a creek where the logs are being i j banked for spring freshets. The chute j I is made of half logs, hollowed in the shape of deep troughs, then laid end to ! ! end the whole three miles into the val- j i ley below. A descent of nearly 600 I feet is made in that distance, and the ; logs on the ice-covered slides, gain a ! frightfnl momentum before they run i ' out on the home stretch at the "land- j ing." A knot of men at the camp shanty i ono night last week declared that none j i of the log rollers was brave enough to i ride a log down the slide. A "purse" j j was raised in the banter, it consisting ! of a barrel of ilour and a ham for the | | widow of one of the woodsmen who had ! i died of typhoid fever last summer ! j Powers and Needham, both single men, | j accepted the banter, and the following j day, selecting a smooth hemlock log j j started on their toboggan journey, j J They lay flat on the stick, using their ; j legs to keep the crafa "right side up" j j and the slide was made without mis j hap. The entire distance was made in i a little over four minutes and the wid- j I ow for whom they won the flour and j j meat got it on Christmas day.—Ex. Our Borough Fathers.

Co. General Passenger Department. A change of time in passenger trains will be ' made on the Sliawmut Line, Sunday, January Bth. The principle change in the present sched ule will be trains No's. 8 and 9 which will be dis continued south of Angelica; these are the morning and evening trains running from and to Bolivar. These trains will continue to run on about the samo schedule between Angelica and i Horncllsville. Another important etiange is train No. 2 which ; now arrives at Hornellsville at 6:10 p. n»., will ar- | rive at 5:55 p. m„ and No. 25 from Hornellsville ! ,o Wayland, now leaving Hornellsville at 6.30 j will leave at 6.15, arriving at Wayland at 7.08, ! making connections with Erio train No. 101 for Rochester. An additional train will leave Hornellsville at | S:3O p. m., for Wayland, returning leave Wayland at 6.10 p. m., upon arrival of D. L. & W., No, 3 from the east, running through to Hornellsville. A very complete passenger time-table folder will shortly be issued by the Passenger Depart ment, which will include schedules of all trains, j 44-21 | How Is it Here? The school board in one of the towns of Schuylkill county has got itself into I trouble through neglect to enforce the I provisions of the compulsory education act. Meeting with difficulties—prob ably no greater than experienced in most places—in the work of preventing truancy, the board evidently abandon led all efforts in that direction. It now I hears from the State Department of I Public Instructiou that unless the law j is complied with and attendance of children in school compelled the State appropriation will be withheld. This | would mean a serious loss which no district could well afford. Such an admonition is enough to stir up any school board and make it do its full i duty, and most likely it will have that j effect in this instance. The State ap i propriation to the schools is an admir j able thing in more ways than one. It | enables the State authority to insist { upon the enforcement of proper and j wholesome laws made in the interest , of public education, where those laws would be otherwise a dead letter in I many districts. AfIONU THE fIAUAZINES MCCLURE'B FOB JANITAKY. I Read McClure's for January ! I There's one New Year's resolution that will S prove a pleasure as well as a profit. For besides [ the manifold entertainment in its nine stories, it j contains articles timely and pleasure. "Lynch" j ing in the South," by Ray Stannard Baker, will ; do more than many an act of Congress to break | down the barracks of sectional misunderstand ing on the negro problem. In "Tuberculosis, ! the Real Race Suicide," Samuel Hopkins Adams I states, no less authoritatively than startling, the horrors of"The Great White Plague." Heshows that modern science could alleviate and prevent the dread disease. Heart-beats of our great nation, graveand ga>* are galvanized into life by the cunning hands of several story-writers in this number. The last chapters of Stewart Edward White's serial, "The Rawhide," contain uot only the sweeping out. door flavor of Arizona (shown, too, in Maxfield Parrish's wonderful color picfure). Another Arizona story, in amusing contrast to this, is Henry Wallace Philips'yarn, "A Touch of Nat ure," in which our old cowboy friend, Red Saunders, adventures strangely with a kilted Scotchman. To a little Kansas town we are carried by the stinging, powerful pen of Wlla Cather, to witness "The Sculptor's Funeral." Charles Fleming Embree tells what a mockery was"The Liberty oi Florentino," a poor little Cuban who was run out of his little Indiana school because they called him "nigger," and who wasn't allowed to work at his trade because they called him "scab." N. M. W. Woodrow sketches sharply the proud little woman who was "Old Man lohnson's Snccesor" in a Western mining town. More humor, typically American, follows in "Billy's Orgy," Grace S. Richmond's tale of the pleasant martyrdom of a bachelor uncle, and in"The Schism at St. Hilda's," in which Mark Lee Luther describes an amazing clerical dispute in u fashionable parish, j An extraordinary revelation of a Japanese I sacrifice, "For Love of Country," is made by John Uwight—a true story. Seumas MacManus tells a rollicking Irish fairy-tale of the three princes who captured "The Steed of Bells. - . More articles are by Frederic Irland, who writes of the Reporter who Became President,' (James Madison.) and C. E. Williams, whogives' charmingly and truthfully, "A Glimpse of Beav ers at Work." Graceful poems by A. E. Hous man and Florence Wilkinson add a finishing touch to this number-one full of interest to any one that takes an interest in his nation aud hi g fellow men. Tin: ARENA. The January "Arena" contains the opening paper of a series of eight contributions which promise to prove the most important addition to the campaign against corruption and political debauchery that bus appeared, and we should not be surprised if this series niaiked the inangu aration of a tidal wave ef political morality in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania as iirisistible as that inaugurated by Thomas Nast in "Harpers' Weekly" and carried forward by the New York "Times," which culminated in the overthrow of the I weed Ring and the dow r fall anddisgrace of men long supposed to be invincible. These papers are entitled "Foity Years in the Wilder ness; or, The Masters and Rulers of' The Free, men' of Pennsylvania," and they have been pre pared by one of the most prominent and univer sally respected citizens of l-hiladelphio,—a man who as a civic leader and an incorruptible foe of all phases of dishonesty, graft and indirection has for years waged a relentless war against the men who were dragging down the fair name of one cfour greatest commonwealths and virtually imperilling free institutions through shameful corruption. These papers by Mr. Blankenburg arc unique in many ways and of special value be cause they come from the pen of a resident of Philadelphia, a man thoroughly responsible for all t hat he says, and a cultured thinker whose business standing and social position are of the highest. The opening contribution, which is il lustrated with admirable portrails of Thaddeus Stevens, Simon Cameron, J. Donald Cameron Col. A. K. MeClure and others, deals with "The Birth of Corruption" in Pennsylvania. Another paper even more startling in charac ter and of the same geneial purport appears in this issue under the liaad oP'The Reign of Boodle and the Rape of the Ballot in St. Louis." It has been prepared for"The Arena" by the promin ent lawyer and author, the lion. Lee Meriwether. Auother paper in the January "Arena" which merits the careful attention of intelligent voters and students of political economy is the discus sion of"The Postal Savings-Banks of Great Brit ain and How the Government of England Fost ers Savings Among the Poor," which constitutes the second paper in"The Arena's" scries of in. ternational contributions devoted to the progress of advance democratic movements throughout the world. WOMAN'S lIOMK COMPANION. The January number of the Woman's Home Companion makes good its title of being a Woman's magazine. Marion Harland writes on "My Twelve Favorite Recipes." Other article? of interest to the housewife are "How to Bring | Up the Children," "Mrs. Sangster's Home Page," ! "A Calendar Party," "For the Girl Who Earns Her Own Living,'' "Mottoes for the New-year," "Underwe*ar for the Little Folks," "Some Famous Old Virginia Dishes." The double page contains a nnmber of photographs showing the charm of old age. Henry Irving Dodge has a dramatic story of modern business, "The Epoch-Making Struggle for Northern Pacific," and Fritz Morris writes on "When Royalty Goes Visiting." The fiction includes "The King of Ijiamonds," by Louis Tracy; "Uncle Peleg's Queer Will," by i Frederick Smith, and "Father," by Owen Oliver, Published by The Crowell Publishing Company; Springfield; Ohio; one dollar a year: ten cents a copy. | After putting your best foot forward ! get there with both feet.
