We believe “The Racket” |
system of business will bear the |
closest examination. As U|
kno, one price to all, and that
the lowest for spot cash, is the |
rule of the store.
....JUSTNOW.... "%
the old-time, long-winded con
cerns are telling U ‘cotton has riz," |
but a broad smile steals across the face |
of Racket buyers, as they walk through
their favorite store, and find piles of
cottons plainly marked in common,
everyday “figgers’’ at a less price than |
the same goods were last year

Mr. J. P. Hackenberg, of Milton,

Mr. James McCormick, who was

and death of his mother, Mrs
Margaret McCormick, of Potters Mills, |
left on Friday last for his home in
Warren, Ohio.
~—Mrs. Philip Mersinger left on Fri
day last for her home in Joliet, IIL
Mrs. Mersinger came ast over a
month ago to pay a visit to her moth-
er, Mrs. William McCormick, of Pot-
ters Mills, who was in delicate health,
and finding her disease of a serious na-
ture, her daughter remained with her
till death called her home.
Gov. Curtin looks in fair Zealth
consider ing his age, and can be seen
on the streets of Bellefonte in spite of
the inclement weather. His countless
friends will be glad to learn this. The
governor keeps himself posted on all
that pertains to public affairs, and can
tell a good joke with his old-time jolli-
ty.
Still Frozen.
Many hydrants are still frost bound
diggers find the ground frozen
hard as stone from the surface down
to the pipe, three feet. This difficulty
leaves little hope of hydrants begin-
ning to flow from a natural thaw, as
such a depth of frost will not come out
before the end of April, unless other
means are resorted to.
Can Get Even.
The cave hotel was refused license
last week. To get even, the proprie-
tor might proceed to throw all the
intoxicants down the throat of the
cavern without needing the license
required if it went down the ordinary
guzzler’s throat. i
Had Ronds.
Although the snow has nearly all
disappeared still the roads are next to
impassable in many sections on ae-
count of the snow drifts which render
it difficult for wagoning. The streams
are bank full, but no serious harm has
been done by high Waters us yel.
