Lead Mine in Blair County,
A tradition that in the days of In-

ing Valley, Blair county, threw rocks |
into their fires, and from them secured
jead for making bullets, has floally
resulted in the opening of valuable
lead mines in that vicinity. The ore
has been assayed and proved to be un-
usually rich in lead. Farmers have
been offered big prices for their farms,

SEVERE HAIL STORM,
Lower Penns Valley Puts on a White
Robe Mid Winter Appearance,
An unusually severe hail storm vis-
ited the lower portion of Penns Valley
Saturday night, and Sunday morning
the section about Woodward,
Feidler and Bebersburg had & mid-
winter appearance. The hall fell in
such quantities and the atmosphere
was so thoroughly chilled that up to
the noon hour the following day hail
was visible everywhere.
There was little wind accompanied
the hail, and the principal damage
done was wrought on fruit trees. In
the vicinity of Woodward and Feidler,
where the storm seemed most destrie-
tive, it is reported by Merchant R. M.
Wolf that the fruit is pretty generally
destroyed,
The fall of hail and the electrieal
display was marvelous and caused
great apprehension that the country
would be laid waste, but aside from
the destruction of the very promising
fruic prospects no damage was done,
Aaronsbure, Coburn and Millbheim
escaped the fall of hail, as did also
Centre Hall and Spring Mills, Potters
Mills, Bellefonte and vicinity and oth-
er sections in the county were visited
by hail, but nothing more than is fre-
quently experienced this season of the
Year.
Jersey SBhore had a similar experi-
ence with hail Friday of last week,
Hail stones half as big as eggs fell to a
depth of several inches, making it pec
essary to shovel walks, Trees were
fairly stripped of leaves, birds killed
outright and plate glass windows were
broken. The fruit in that locality
ruined.

The growth of our business is simply phenominal, every week far
ahead of the previous.
Did you ever stop to think how much of a factor The Star Store st the siation has been in
bringing down and keeping down the prices on many articles of merchandise ? During these few
years you have been the gainer, as well as we, from the fact that you have bought your goods at the
right figures and berause of your liberal patronege, we hate moved many goods,
Did you ever notice how fearless we quote you prices? You understand that the store that
gives you a price is pot afraid of you getting a lower abe. The store that gives you the actual price,
not an article quoted from one price to another, but the low and only price.
It's the old story, no rents, no drayage, being close by depot, buying for cash and only from
cash houses who employ 20 salesmen, and lastly but surely not least, selling foreash. This §s It In
its simplest form. Is it not plain? Furthermore we have and will continue to make prices that
our competitors do not even attempt to follow,
