The first regular snowstorm—an ug

Thursday. 31. It lasted nearly 48 hours,
and nearly tne foot of snow fell. Sunday

N. B.—A correspondent from Penn who
signs himself "Twig of the Brush." says
"Ben never did any thing for a railroad in
money or otherwise." How high is dl
for high? But that is none of Twig's busi
ness, it is purely a "local" matter
"Twig" is a little too personal for publica

Strawbridge Jk Clothier we deeire to ado
our personal teatimony to tbe fact that the
promise* of this firm's advertisements are
mere than fulfilled in tleir dealings eitb
all tbeir immense constituency of custom
ers the country over. Tbeir ciublisb
Kent, which ten years ago was universally
known in their own city, has since been
steadily growing in prestige and populari
ty, until now it has almost a natienal rep
utation. It seems bard to believe that
any business should have grown during
tbe past few years of general shrinkage
and hard times, but we are assured on un
doubted authority that Messrs. Straw
bridge Sc Clothier's business it fer larger
than before tbe panic of 1h73, and is stead
iiy growing with every year. An interest
ing sight may be witnessed almost any fine
day by spending a balf-hcur in their es
tablishment and observing the smooth and
systematic manner in which immense
quantities of goods are distributed, and
great crowds of customers promptly and
carefully waited on by those who know.
We ere reliably informed that they have
customers not only i every coanty oi
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and
Maryland,"but in every State of the Un
ion.
Their mail order department enables
them to furnish to consumers over the en
tire country all that may be needed ie dry
goods and household supplies, thereby
saving them theesper.se and time incident
to a visit to tbe city. Messrs. Strawbridge
& Clothier guarantee that every order fill
ed is at the lowest price at which the goods
are sold that day over the counter*. Tbe
great convenience and economy of this
system of obtaining supplies cannot be
overestimated.
One of our lady readers wishes to
know whether the Reporter can quote any
sentences that read the fame backwards as
forwards. Here Is one moralistic :
"Lewd I did live A evil did 1 dwell."
Next one beliicoae i
"Snug A raw was I ere I saw war A
guns."
This one Napoleonic :
"Able was I ere I saw Elba."
We knew of several more such sentences
but cannot at this momsnt bring tbem to
recollaction.

We believe no one has yet entered
Sechler's grocery during business hours,
but what customers were there making
purchase* You often go there and find it
full and clerks busy waiting uvort anaious
buyers. What account* for this' Just
this, when you go to Sechlers for any
thing in the line of groceries you can get
it there and need inquire no farther, and
besides you get a fresh and pure article,
wholesome and fit for any one to use. This
is what makes Sechier's establishment the
favorite of housekeepers. In addition to
these advantages they sell groceries low
there, and meet with no deception in
goods. Y'ou know just what you Ret and
save money. Try them, is all we need say
to thus© that have not yet been at the fa

RELEASED rnovt JAlL.—Mover and Et

j —On last Saturday old mother Ehr
hart, widow of ex-commisionr Ehrhart,
died in the lower end of Miles township.
Had she lived until next April, her age
would have been 96 years. She was un
doubtedly one of tho oldest persona in our
county, if not the oldest- She bore her
age well and was vigorous until near the
end. She belonged to a large and influ
ential connection in Brush Valley.
Oa last Saturday night the smoke
house of Daniel Bartges in Gregg town
ship was burned with a considerable quan
tity of meat. The family was not aware
of the occurence until in the morning,
when they discovered it. It is singular
that another building with which the
smoke-house connected was not hurt by
tha fire, and it is not unlikely there was a
hand in the matter, and some of the msat
carried off first.
A Millfceim correspondent thinks
Millheim should have apaperacd that we
should remove the Reporter office to their
town, it could do much to aid its improve
ment and would get a good support. We
think so too but we can't move, will do all
we ran for its enterprises at this distance.
Tha partnership between Iloffei i
Kline, merchants of Bellefonte, has been
mutually dissolved, and Mr. Kline retires
from the store.
The citizens of Millheim held a
meeting on last Saturday evening to adopt
measures with reference to the proposed
branch railroad from Coburn. referred to
in the last few issues of the Reporter.
There was a fair attendance and a dispo
sition manifested to push ahead the matter
vigorously, and a considerable sum sub
scribed on the spot. D. A. Muster sub
scribed S3OO and there were promises of
more of the same kind. A string of that
kind of subscriptions will do the thing.
The Reporter will keep agitating the en
terpriso—as long as there is life there is
hope.
Just like hot cakes goes Newman's , '
winter stock of Clothing Hundreds are ( <
aware of the bargain* iust now offered, bo j '

goods, and that's what snakes tbe big run. j J
Go too, reader, before it is too late ; you '
will be surprised at the low prices for men
and boys' suits, single garments, under
clothing, boots, shoes, haU ar.d caps, any
thing that is needed to wear or put on.
The goods must go out to mase room for a
big spring stock.
Sechlers have just opened a new
supply of groceries. If you want fresh
teas, sugars, coffee, syrup, fruits, confec
tioneries, crackers, dry beef, ham, cheese,
beans, soap, spices, best pure vinegar,
York state apples, dried peaches of the
very best, canned fruit all kinds of the
choicest, and a thousand of other good
useful, wholesome, pure, and cheap arti
cles. Sechlcrs is the place to go to for
them.
FROM MILLUEIM.
Ed. Rkpoiitik I have been interested
in your articles tbe last two weeks on the
subject of a railroad frewn the Forks to our
town, and the thing has brought our peo
ple to talk and think over the matter.
That's business. We want tbe short road,
and Millheim is able to make it too if it
g-ta in earnest about it It would be a
great convenience to Aaronsburg and to
all Brush Valley aa well as to Millheim,
and ell these places should give us assis
tance in taking stock. We might ofi-r
the new road when graded to the railroad
company and let them finish it and run up
to Millheim from the Fork* as they do
from Milesbnrgto Bellefonte. This idea
many of our loading men have had long
ago. Agitate the matter and keep it
alive. •• • • Elk.
From another correspondent :
ED. ot Rw *trr •
. . . "When the Watchman prints slan
ders about the Penn township supervisor*
about "blundering," it should know that
the Supervisor* are not asking its advice
about roadmaklng, and when it comes to
talking about blunders Mr. Sleek should
mind he live* in a glass house and that
there are some stones here to throw that
might hurt him.
