The sample he carried was a su- | perior article, and on the strength of | this he had po trouble in working up a nice trade, The grocers ‘who have | received and paid for the soap have | been simply buncaed out of their mon- ey, ns the soap delivered is vile and | worthless, is of the consistency of thick molasses, Several of the merchants discovered the fraud, and bad their money returned before the swindler could get out of town, Others are chasing him up with fair hopes of cap- turing him aod recovering their cash. The agent is said to be working the towns as he goes along, It is suppos- ed that be is now at Ashland or Sha. mokiu. The grocers of neighboring towns will do well to give him the cold shoulder, a AU SY A To the Pablie.

This difference in the | roads of the two townehsps may be at- tributed to the fact that Potter town- ship has two stone crushers and every year macadamizes several miles of road. Harris township has a erusher, Fergu- son has two, College, Benner, State College borough, Spring and several other townships, have each one; the result is that all these aremow putting their roads in better c¢oudition than they ever were before, while the east. ern townships beginning with Gregg, are still piling up loose dirt on their roads only to cause deeper mud holes during the rainy season, and when they do pike a few rods here and there they do not breik the stone fine enough the result being that after a few weeks of driving over them many of the larg- er ones have rolled into the side diteh- Such work is a waste of the peo- ple’s money and should be stopped at once.

Not only are they cheaper in that respect, but they save on the wear of wagons, horses and man. What is more wearing on horses and man than to be ploughing through the mud; next to a balky horse when the faithful beast is nearly worn out, and how can it be otherwise, Dear reader place yourself in the same posi tion, and see how much you can do under like circumstances. But with solid roads you ean haul twice or even three times a8 much as you ean through the mud, in half the time and half the wear ou yourself and team.
