Swindier Fleeces Young Women,
A man has been carrying on a swin-
dling scheme in towns of this section.
He reprerented himself as an agent for
a millinery establishment in Lebanon.
He was selling outfits to make artifi-
cial flowers and said he would forward
the wax, silk, wire, thread, scissors
and 100 moulds to make 150 in ad-
vance. H e stated that he would be
around the next day to give a lesson
of au hour, and would continue for a
week. The students in the art were
to work one hour every day for a week
and at the expiration of that time they
would receive $2.00 for their labor, He
succeeded in interesting a number of
ladies who are still waiting for the re
turn of the swindler, who left the same
day and since then nothing has been
seen or heard of him.

Hendache for Forty Years.
For forty years I suffered from sick
headache. About a year ago I began
using Celery King. The result was
gratifying and surprising, my head-
aches leaving at once. The headaches
used to return every seventh day, but
thanks to Celery King, I have had but
one headache in the last eleven
months. I know that what cured me
will help others—Mrs. John D. Van

Teachers Convention,
The county teachers’ convention in
Centre, Clearfield and Clinton will be-
gin December 19, this year. This will
be very convenient, as a two weeks’
holiday will enable the teachers to at-
tend the Institute and yet have the
Christmas week free.

SPRING MILLS,
A Bold Attempt Made to Burglarize the
the Posoflloe,
Mrs. J. N. Leitzell of our village, is
at present visiting relatives and friends
in Perry and Juniata counties.
The defeat of C. P. Long of our vil
lage for Assembly, by the Republican
convention on Tuesday, was quite a
disappointment to his many friends in
this valley. These valleys have as us-
ual been again entirely ignored.
The recent rains have caused a very
decided rise in our streams. Quite a
number of our fishermen can daily be
seen along Penns creek, seated on her
concave shores waiting patiently for
the anxious nibble, which however oc-
curs only at long intervals simply from
the fact that the creek fished to
death,

seems to be that this is a Democratic

About two o'clock on Friday
ing last, a bold attempt was made to
enter and rob the postoffice by remov-
ing a pane of glass from one of the
windows. The glass falling on the
floor and breaking, awoke Mr. Long,
our postmaster, who occupies a room
directly over the office. Cautiously |®
looking out he discovered a man tam-
pering with one of the lower windows,
in
orn-
and immediately discharged his revol-
ver twice at the robber, but as far
known effect. The burglar
hastily retreated around the corner of
the building and running towards the
pike soon disappeared in the darkness, |
The morning was very cloudy and Mr.
Long could not say positively whether
one or more persons were engaged in EC
the attempted robbery, but he saw on- |
ly one. The bycicle office of Frank!
Rearick, or rather the work room was |
entered also ay removing a large win- |
dow light and evidently by the same |
party or parties, and at about the same |
time. Their object no doubt, was to|
sectire tools, but being discovered and
the reports of Mr. Long's revolver caus-
ed them to make a hasty flight. Noth-

Michael Shires of our village, the
active insurance agent is always busy,
and almost continually on the road, of
course the companies he represents
know exactly where a gentleman of
his ability can be used advantageously
and consequently they oblige him to
be almost ubiquitous. A day or two
since I remarked to him, that I believ-
ed driving a canal boat would be a
more desirable position than the one
he occupied, because then a man would
be home occasionally, he simply smil-
ed and observed, possibly and —but I'll
see you again, hastily entering his bug-
gy he was off like a flash. Mr. Shires
is quite a politician too, the few hours
he has to spare he devotes to politics,
to avoid as he says, the dry rot, and to
keep up with the times. He handles
