Some disinfectants and germicides
might be classed as drugs but, you
do not want to be drugged just now
with a bug killer. However, now is
the time to think of getting after the
rose bugs and currant worms.
We have a full line of the "reme
dies" for that class of pests. Also a
non-poisonous bed bug exterminator
in small cans.

Railroad News.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, in conjunction with the Hudson
& Manhattan Railroad Co., has ar
ranged that on and after Monday,
July 19, 1909, all tickets to and from
New York shall, without additional
charge, be valid through the new
Hudson tunnels to and from the Hud
son Terminal Building, at Church and
Cortlandt streets, New York City,
within one block of Broadway and ad
joining a Sixth avenue elevated sta
tion.
Passengers coming to New York,
whether on one-way or excursion
tickets, will have the alternative of
crossing the river on the company's
ferry boats to Cortlandt, Desbrosses
and Twenty-third streets, or of taking
an elevator in the station at Jersey
City, descending to tfie Hudson tun
nel and going by subway to the ter
minal in New York City.
Coupons are to be attached to one
way and excursion tickets from Phila
delphia and poinio east, except sta
tions between Bay Head and Toms
River, N. J., inclusive. These coupons
will be collected and commutation
tickets will be punched at the entrance
to elevators in the Jersey City station.
Passengers coming trom points soutb
or west of Philadelphia, will, upon ap
plication, and without charge, be sup
plied by conductor with a tunnel ticket
before reaching Jersey city. Leaving
New York, all Pennsylvania Railroad
tickets are to be accepted on the con
course floor of the Hudson terminal
for transportation to Jersey City.
The Pennsylvania time tables will
set forth the leaving time of trains at
Twenty-third, Desbrosses and Cort
landt streets, as well as the leaving
time at the Hudson Terminal. For
each of the regular through trains a
special tunnel train will be provided to
leave the Hudson Terminal Ave min
utes after the Cortlandt and Desbrosses
street ferries are scheduled to leave for
Jersey City, and ten minutes after the
leaving time of the Twenty-third street
ferry.
Tickets to all points on the Pennsyl
vania Railroad are to be purchasable
at ticket windows in the Hudson Term
inal, as well at the regular city ticket
offices of the company. For the pres
ent, however, baggage will be checked
only to and from the ferry stations at
Jersey City.
The Pennsylvania Railroad's eigh
teen hour train between New York
and Chicago has just completed a con
tinuous record of four years' service.
From June 12, 190/S, when the train
was started, to June, 12, 1909, a total
of 2,922 trips were made—l,46l in each
direction—and upon 2,483 or 85 per
cent, of these trips the train was on
time or within five minutes of its
schedule at destination.
The actual running time of the
"Pennsylvania Special" from Jersey
City to Chicago is 17 hours and 41
minutes. The scheduled time is 57 2
miles per hour, or 1,061 minutes to
cover 912 miles. During this period of
four years, therefhre, the train has
travelled 2,655,744 miles, and 2,145,740
miles were covered in scheduled time.
Upon only 100 trips, or an a verage
of 80 in each direction, for the entire
four years —or 20 for each year—was
the train more than 30 minutes late.
From New York to Chicago the train
was on time to the minute 1,159 times
out of 1,461 trips, while from Chicago
to New York, the train arrived exactly
on schedule 1,202 days. Those records
take account of operations during the
while of the winter period when snow,
ice, fog and storm have to be encount
ered frequently.
The best record of the four years was
the last, June 12, 1908, to June 12, 1909,
when the train was on time or within
five minutes of its schedule at New
York on 326 days out of 365, and at
Chicago on 312 days. The train thus
made its schedule during the past year
approximately 88 per cent, of the time.
For the month ending July Ist, 1909,
the train was absolutely on time at
both Chicago and New Yok upon
every one of the 30 days.
This train has thus now been operat
ed continuocsly for a longer period,
and lias made its schedule with greater
regularity than any other train of like
speed and distance in the history of
transportation.
Church Dedicated.
EDITOH PRESS:—I want to say just a
word to your readers. The Mountain
Mission Church was dedicated last
Saturday and Sunday. A full report
will appear in next week's PRESS, not
having the time to do so this week.
Jos. Newton and wife were the only
ones from Emporium in attendance.
We received a letter from our old
friend and comrade, Hon. J. C. John
son, bringing a contribution and full
of good cheer and encouragement.
We would be pleased to have it printed
to let people know that there are some
who think well of us, but probably it
would not be wise to do so without
his permission. Watch for full report
next week. J. M. E.
