I'oote, whe wanted to dispose of Ills boot and shoe store at a bargain, having made up his mind to remove to the city. "That's the very thing," he said. "Selling shoes is a nice easy occupa tion. It will Rive me just euough tc do to keep me from stagnating, and it won't wear me out with overwork. I'll investigate it. It's queer, though, thnt his name is Foote. my name b Foote, he wants to come to the city nnd I want togo to the country." A visit to the little town decided him. He liked its appearance and lo cation. He was pleased, moreover with "Foote's Shoe Store" and bought it, good will and all, at a bargain. "Well," said the other Mr. Foote, "you won't have to change the sign." "No," he answered slowly. "I'll just add a little to it." The next day he added this, jus) below the sign: "This place has changed feet." A Psychic Phenomenon. An extraordinary incident is connect ed with Professor von Ilerkomer's fa mous painting, "The bast Muster," which was the picture of its year at the academy. One morning soon after the exhibi tion was opened the artist was aston ished to receive a letter from a lady, a perfect stranger, who said she was not aware until she saw "The Last Muster" at the academy on the previ ous day that her mother, then dead, had ever sat to the professor for her portrait. Now, the figure in the picture was painted solely from imagination, and the artist hastened to explain this fact to his correspondent. She thereupon asked for an appointment and took an oil painting of her mother, asserting that it was a faithful representation of that lady. The academician was astonished to perceive that ho had really portrayed on his own canvas a facsimile of the figure in this other painting, although It was that of a woman whom lit? had never seen in his life.—London M. A. P. Shipwrecks and Courts Martial. The custom of holding courts martial in the British navy after every case ol shipwreck has a curious origin. In 1741 the Wager, one of Commodore Anson's vessels, was wrecked off f lie coast of Chile, most of tlie crow being saved. The men and some of the jun ior officers held that they were no longer amenable to discipline because their pay ceased with the wreck, but the captain, whose name was Davy Cheap, differed, treated them as muti neers and shot one of his midshipmen. He was then deposed, and most of the crew made off in three of the boats. Later when it was proposed to proceed against the so called mutineers the law officers of the crown decided that the men had been correct in their view. This discovery led to the framing of section !>1 of the articles of war, which provides that in the case of shipwreck, destruction or capture by the enemy a *liip is I'ICH to remain In commission pending inquiry by a court martial. The Pigs of Brittany. "Briitnn is ,!1 right." the traveled man said cautiously,, "but beware of the pi< s there.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 27, 1908. NOTES OF INTEREST. James Hobson will erect an addition to his home on West Creek. The new building will be built of stone and brick. Harper's Weekly lias discovered nineteen railroad presidents who 27 years ago were either machinists, tele graph operators, water boys on trains or other wage earners. John C.

In buildings, equipment and reputa tion, the Lock Haven State Normal School is the equal of the best. Its graduates are the best advertisement.

FireWedncsday morning of last week destroyed the Merrill house at Dents Run, causiug a loss of $15,000. All the guests escaped in safety, although some of them lost a part of their clothing. The fire was discovered by the crew of a B. & S. freight train which was pass ing through the place. The train was stopped and the crew aroused the peo ple iu the house and tried to light the flames. The Hyde & Doutt lumber plant at Grandin, near Eagle Rock, was prac tically destroyed by fire Saturday after noon. The saw mill, planing mill, gen eral store, ice house and 1,000 ties were burned, entailing a loss of $25,- 000, on which there was $23,000 insur ance. Millions of feet of lumber and a large boarding house was saved only through the assistance rendered by the Oil City firemen. The loss to the com pany is made comparatively light through the fact that their lease ex pires during September. If the old brindle cow should get out many a daddy would walk the streets half the night for her, but let a 12 year old boy or girl fail to show up parents retire for the night, in a good many case?, without an anxious thought.

According to Government reports there were 55,402,336,113 stinking cigar ettes consumed in the United States last year by 25,000,000 smokers, it is said. Which means in round figures that about three times as many more American citizens who do not smoke, but detest the rank smelling cigarette have had their olfactory sense out raged 55,402,336,113 times, which is a very conservative estimate, as it is safe to say that no where near one-third of the citizens of this country are in the habit of smoking those abominations. So those staggering billion figures can be multiplied several times without trenching on the truth a particle. A sad commentary on the good sense of the American people. How to Live on $5.
