LOUISE.
Those "Jollities."
Last Thursday evening being April
Ist and the anniversary of Miss Vinnie
Card's birth, the "Jollities" took it up
on themselves to give her and also
Miss Emma Welsh, whose birthday
occured the previous Sunday, an April
Fool Surprise. The party took place
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. B.
Metz. The girls were presented with
gifts from the bunch and then began
the fun. The following poem com
posed by one of the members was read:
April comes but once a year.
And when it comes it brings good cheer ;
There's a robin on the fence—
April Fool.
Lots of jokes and lots of rules,
Don't get mad if you get fooled ;
Oh ! there a horse stuck in the mud-
April Fool.
There's lots of surprises on that day.
And lots of flin so they say ;
Why there's a spider on your dress—
April Fool.
That April Fool came on this day.
She was a great surprise, they say ;
Oh, my ! there's a mouse upon your lap-
April Fool,
There's a crowd, just hear them roar,
Some one will knock at your door ;
Go tell mother she is wanted—
April Fool.
After an evening devoted to games
and music, light refreshments were
served. Will Welsh proceeded to take
some flash-light pictures of the crowd,
but the shutter failed to work and they
were a failure. All had a very enjoy
able evening.

Best Treatment for Colds.
"Most ordinary colds will yield to the
simplest treatment." says the Chicago
Tribune, "moderative laxativrs. hot foot
baths, a free perspiration and an avoid
ance of exposure to cold and wet alter
treatment." While this treatment is
simple, it requires considerable trouble,
and the one adopting it must remain in
doors for a day or two, or a fresli cold is
almost sure to be contracted, am) in niauy
instances pneumonia follows. Is it not
better to pin your faith to an old reliable
preparation like Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, that is famous for its cures of
ei>lds and can always be depended upon?

Driftwood Band Entertained.
The Driftwood Band took a trip to
Huntley recently and serenaded Squire
Sullivan, who in turn invited the gen
tlemen to partake of a chicken supper,
which was enjoyed by all. Several
selections were played by the band
and a good time was enjoyed by all.
George Morse, the genial driver, was
prevailed upon to sing a song and
while Mr. Morse is known to be a good
singer, everybody was agreeably sur
prised when he composed an im
promptu selection which was entitled
"The Driftwood Band" and sang it to
the tune of Saint Patrick's Day, in his
rich baritone voice. With his per
mission we herewith present it to our
readers:
"The band boys of Driftwood, in old Pennsyl
vania,
Are the best in the State, as every one knows ;
These mountain musicians can sure entertain,
you,
For they live where the pine and hemlock grows
Tom Fulton, cornetist, is leader and teacher,
His notes, they will rival the sweet nightingale;
He's the swellest cornetist in Cameron county,
His ear is the finest, his lunge never fail.
Cash Henry, Lou Arnold and Archie McL)onald>
And Jack Hacket too, all on cornets do play ;
A splendid quartette to produce classic music.
No discords are heard when they get under way.
The altos are fine,'tis with pride that I name
them.
John K earns, Garrett Mitchell, Earl Towers also.
And hist, but not least, we have Freddy
Vicker,
They harmonize grandly, in tones loud or low.
1 had Hrooks and Sam ICreider, two jolly good
fellows,
A re i ising to fume upon the trombones ;
Next comes Wilbert Coleman, the baritone
player,
Who has them all beat when it comes to sweet
tones.
Eldred Krelder, the basso, by Sousa is wanted,
James (Jibbon's an artist upon the bass drum ;
Dean Thompson, snare drummer, is surely a
wonder,
The music he gives us is second to none.
So lung life ami good luck to our excellent bands
men,
They're an honor to Driftwood, and we wish
them success ;
If you want s inie good music yon need not seek
further,
For the Driftwood Brass Hand plays none but
the best." J.F.S.
CAUSES DEBILITY
Mere are Facts Backed up by a Strong
Guarantee.
Debility is caused by catarrh In
our opinion, a person free from Catarrh
was never troubled with Debility. De
bility can never be cured by medicine
not designed to cure Catarrh. We
positively guarantee to cure Catarrh,
and thus cure Debility. In every cane
where we fail to effect a cure, we will
not charge a cent for the medicine em
ployed during the tiial. Now, surely
no one should hesitate to believe us or
to put our olaim to a practical test
under such conditions. We take all
the risk; no one else can lose anything
by the transaction.
We make these statements and this
offer becaube we know and have time
and again proved that Rexall Mucu-
Tone will euro Catarrh. It is designed
for that one particular- purpose. It is
not a cure all prescribed to cure every
disease that fleah is heir to. It is a
specific. Rexall Mueu-Tone is absorb
ed in the stomach and carried by the
blood until it penetrates every part of
the body, acting as an antiseptic, disin
fecting, cleansing, soothing aad heal
ing agent. It rids the system of al
germ and poisonous matter, purifies
and enrichec the blood, rebuilds injur
ed tissues, cleanses and invigorates the
muco-cells, neutralizes the acids of the
body, stops mucus discharge, tones up
the entire system, promotes nutrition,
increases body weight, and brings
about a feeling of healthfulness that is
lasting.
We have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two
sices. Prices 50c and §I.OO. We urge
you to try a bottle on our guarantee.

porium, Pa.
$25.00 for a Name.
We are now demonstrating in the
store a new perfume and we want a
name for it. Will you kindly let us
show it to you so you may suggest an
appropriate name, which, if is the one
selected, you will receive $25.00 for
your trouble and kindness.
The perfume is a delicate, lasting
alluring odor, but at present.
"DOES NOT HAVE A NAME TO CALL
ITS OWN."
It will not cost you anything to sug
gest a name. If, when you smell the
odor it is so pleasing to you that you
would like to have some, the price
would be 50 cents per ounce. You do
not have to buy it to get a chance to
win the $25.00. You are entitled to
name for nothing. Sould you pur
chase some of the perfume, you may
suggest a name for each half ounce
purchased.
This perfume is made by the manu
facturers of Harmony Perfumes.
