Couldn't do Without Them There are always those who will kick. For instance, if you publish jokes with whiskers ou them, some joint, to smile at, mistic fossil. If you spread yourself and write a good original article they will say it is stolen. If you reprint an article they say you can't write. If you say a deserved word for a man, you are partial; if you compliment the ladies, the men are jealous; and if you don’t the verdict of the ladies is to the effect that your paper is not fit to use in the construetion of a bustle. If you stay in your office you are afraid to re- main on the streets; if you do you are lazy. If you look seedy you are squan- dering your money; if you wear good clothes you are a dude and don’t pay for them. Ifyou play a social game and get stuck, you are a fish; if you win you are a tin horn, and so it goes through one continual round of pleas ant complications. No Lounger an “Iron Morse.” It has been remuarked that it is no longer appropriate to call the locomo- tive an “iron horse,” and that it is time to change the term and say ‘‘the steel horse.” At present the greater part of the locomotive is steel. The massive boiler, the firebox, wheel cen- ters, axles, driving rods, and in many cases the eylinders, steam chests and even the cab, are built of steel. The desire to get increased strength in all the working parts, with the least in- crease in weight, will soon necessitate an all-steel locomotive, I Girls It's the Truth, Sam Jones asked the following per- tinent question: ‘Do you know that boys are much more particular whom they go with than girls? You may think it a strange statement, but it is 80. A girl will go in the streets in open day with a boy that gets drunk, but the minute & boy finds out that a girl gets drunk he won't go with her. I wish our girls would be as particular with whom go as the boys ar.” Baki ou call for De Witt’s Witch ile eure, don’t Boat anything Don’t be talked Esa rl i 8 THE BORO. A Large Vote Out and a Very Quiet Elec. tion, The vote in the boro Tuesday was a heavy one, there being 126 cast. Only a few votes remained to be polled. The election was quiet with little or no ex- citement and proceeded quietly. The Democrats were in evidence and stuck faithfully to the ticket. There was very little cutting down, and the Re- publicans suffered most through it. Bwallows vote was below one year ago when he received 24. The vole was as follows: Governor. Stone, R Jenks, L..

He embarked in the lumber business in 1874 and erected the first saw mill in that section. At the time of his death he was consider- ed the lumber king of the West Branch valley. He was also owner of a large number of steam boats plying between Sunbury, Shamokin Dam and Nor- thumberland. Red for Soldiers It is stated that tests made abroad show that scarlet is second among the colors in the order of disappearance from view when troops are marching at a distance. Searlet is also reported to be the most difficult color to hit in long-range firing. There may have been good reasons, therefore, for the se- lection of scarlet for British uniforms, Every custom began with a reason in some experience more or less under- stood. w——————— i ——— Mormon Missionaries.)

A man driving a long- enred mule came along and the driver and the animal were made the special object of their sarcastic remarks. The driver stopped the animal, looked his tormentors in the face and, pointing at the mule, yelled: “Boys, don't you think you ought to be ashamed of your- selves to make fun of your poor broth- er?’ The answer was 80 unexpected that the students were taken ofl’ their guard and were speechless until the driver and the mule drove out of sight. -Lock Haven Democrat. meen a Penns Valley Educators Trump in 1llinols.

If we cared as much for our forests as Germany does we would obtain most of our taxes from them, and to that extent would be individually relied of the burden of taxation. This is proven by the expe- rience of other nations. —— lied Mrs. Amanda Harter, Amanda, wife of Calvin Harter, of near Jacksonville, died on morning of Oct. 28, after an illness of only one day, aged 32 years, 6 months.
