Gordon,” by Mary KE, Wilkins, to be Published Next Sanday. The best novel for the reader is the novel that most nearly portrays the people with whom the reader comes in contact. David Harum pictured a homely character and his friends in such a way as to make every reader of the book find in his own community a counterpart of the great philosopher and horse trader. Mary E. Wilkins-Freeman, who has for some years been known as the author who drew true life portraits of the characters of the New Kogland village, has found a new field for her work. She has written a novel, the characters for which she has found in southern New Jersey. Whether the people of that section will enjoy her pictures is yet to be seen, but they will surely enjoy the story itself—one of the greatest mystery-romances ever written. The title of the novel is ** Doc. Geor- don, "” and the first instalment will be printed in the Bunday North Ameri- can next Sunday, August 5. It will be completed during the month of August in the special fiction supple- ment of that paper before it is allowed to appear in book form. The demand for the Bunday North American for August is already enor- mous, and readers #ho would not miss reading all of the Wilkins should make themselves safe by order- ing the paper for the full month. novel s———————— Clinton Grangers to Picale At Agar’s park, Mill Hall, on Thurs day, August 9, the several granges of Clinton county will picnie.

The Reporter readers who ave an acquaintance with the family of Joseph Spangler, who moved te near Freeport, Illinois, several years ago from the farm east of Centre Hall, now tenanted by Bigler Shaffer, will regret to learn that his home was re- cently destroyed by fire, and that a little child narrowly escaped death in the flames. The account is taken from the Freeport Bulletin, The fire occurred Wednesday after. noon of last week, and is supposed to have been occasioned by a defective flue. Mrs. Spangler kindled a fire in the kitchen stove, and then went into another room to care for a baby. Presently observed the flames through a key hole. She immediately put the infant in a place of safety, and gave alarm, which speedily brought her husband from the field, and near- by neighbors upon the scene. Dis- covering that one of the children was missing, Fred Homan rushed into the burning building and brought from one of the rooms a cradle in which was a small child. By the most heroic efforts the barn on the farm saved. all the furniture, was destroyed, There was no insurance held either by Mr. Spangler or Alva Dunn, the land- lord. The dwelling at $1500 she Was Nearly ele. was valued A ftps Sweating of the Feet The following method of treatment is adopted by a well known physician. The patient must wash his feet thor- oughly in a two and five per solution of carbolic acid, at first twice a day, then once a day, and finally two or three times a week. After the bath ne is to put clean stockings, sprinkled ipside and outside with a powder composed of two parts of benzoin, three parts salicylic acid, and cent, on ninety-five parts magnesia. The shoes must also be sprinkled inside with the powder. The stockings, when taken oft, should be allowed to soak for twelve hours in carbolized water, then dipped in lye water and washed. Io this way the bacteria which cause the skin affection and consequent abnorm- al secretion of sweat are destroyed. Without this thorough disinfection the doctor maintains a cure of the affection is impossible, S———————— A A A—————— LOUALS Verse 22, chapter 7, of Ezra, has all the letters of the alphabet except ** J.” Just brush the dust ofl your Bible and soe if this is not true.

This scheme is following out the purposes of the act of May 11, 1005, whereby the game commission was given authority in co-operation with state forestry commission to es. tablish such preserves with the idea of propating the wild fauna of the state, Country life has its drawbacks, but it has its great advantages which over. come them. True, those who live in the country are ** Rubes” and ** Farm- ers’ and ** hayseeds'' to the cigarette smokers in town, but the boast of the business men in the world today is that they were born on a farm. Take away the surrounding evils that beset the young men or women on the thres- hold of life's journey in the city, and substitute the helpful influence of na- ture, and you forlify them for the sterner walks in life, The few things which they do not know about table etiquette and when it is proper to leave two visiting cards and when but one, they will catch onto much quicker than city boys and girls will learn to properly stoke the furnace or make good bread. No boy or girl need be ashamed of living on the farm, for if they have taken advantage of what it has offered they are well fortified for after life. * ; & d . * ¥ 3 i ts al FISHES ARE SENSITIVE.
