Oats and Barley at Discount
The oats und barley crop is certain
to be at a great discount. Few, if any,
fields planted to this grain has an &p-
pearance at present of making more
than a fifty per cent. crop. Much of

know the schedule on which the

ted simply because the Reporter can
not aflord to do so without remunera-

itself too poor to pay for the advertis-

Wm. Meyer and wife were Millheim
visitors on Friday.

visited in Hpring Mills last week,

T. M. Gramley Thursday returned
from Bunbury, where he had been as a
delegate to Lutheran Bynod,
As nearly everybody had gone to
Millheim or Asronsburg on Memorial
Day, Bpring Mills seemed like a de-
sorted town, If it had not been for
the patriotism of the little boys, who
formed a drum corps, the people would
hardly have known that it was Deco-
ration Day, as there were no other
demonstrations.
A large delegation from the Bpring
Mills Lodge, I. O. O. F., went to Mill-
heim and Aaronsburg Thursday, and
participated in the Memorial services.
The exercises at Aaronsburg being es.
pecially attractive, are worthy of no-
tice. The parade was made up of chil
dren from the various Bunday schools,
the G. A. R. Post, members of the I.
0. O. F. and K. G. E. Lodges and the
band. After the services in the ceme-
tery the large procession marched to
the Reformed church, which was filled
to its utmost capacity, where Prof, C.
H. Albert, of Bloomsburg, delivered
the oration. The citizens of Aarons
burg certainly deserve the highest con-
gratulations in securing the services of
Prof, Albert, as it was a treat to hear
him. Your correspondent must say
that he never heard 8 more able and
appropriate Memorial address deliver
ed in Penus Valley. Prof. Albert cer-
tainly capped the climax, :
THE STRENUOUS LIFE.
One Day's Work of a Sixteenth Cen-
tury Law Student,
If law students of the present day
are laboring under the delusion that
when the world was younger there was
Jess law to study and more relaxation
for young men of thelr class, let them
read the following extract that an
English contemporary has taken from
the “Memoirs of Henrl de Mesmes,’
descriptive of a day's work of a law
student at Toulouse in the sixteenth
eentury:
“We used to rise from bed at 4
o'clock, and, having prayed to God, we
went at b o'clock to our studies, our
big books under our arms, our Ink-
horns and candles in our hands, We
heard all the lectures without inter.
mission till 10 o'clock rang. Then we
dined after having hastily compared
during a half hour our notes of the
lectures.
“After dinner we read as a recrea-
tion Sophocles or Aristophanes or Eu-
ripides and sometimes Demosthenes,
Cicero, Virgll or Horace. At ] o'clock
to our studies, at § back to our dwell
ing places, there to go over and verify
passages cited In the lectures until 6;
then supper, and after supper we read
Greek or Latin
“On holy days we went to high mass
and vespers; the rest of the days, a
little music and walks."
SKILL OF THE ANCIENTS,
The Old Timers Apparently Did Many
Things Better Than We.
“We are losing all our secrets in this
shabby age,” an architect sald. “If
we keep on, the time will come when
we'll be able to do nothing well.
“Take, for Instange, steel. We claim
to make good steel, yet the blades the
Baracens turned out hundreds of years
ago would cut one of our own blades
in two like butter,
“Take ink. Our modern ink fades In
five or ten years to rust color, yet the
ink of mediseval manuscripts is as
black and bright today as It was 700
years ago.
“Take dyes. The beautiful blues and
reds and greens of antique oriental
rugs have all been lost, while In Egyp-
tian tombs we find fabrics dyed thou
sands of years ago that remain today
brighter and purer in hue than any of
our modern fabrics.
“Take my specialty, buildings. We
can't bulld as the ancients did. The
secret of thelr mortar and cement is
lost to us. Thelr mortar and cement
were actually harder and more durable
than the stones they bound together,
whereas ours—horrors!” — New York
Press.
Presence of Mind.
The Duke of Wellington was writing
in his brary when, chancing to look
up, he saw a stranger near him who
had entered unheard.
“Who are you, and what do yom
want?’ asked the duke.
“I am Apollyon and have been sent
to kill you.”
The nobleman realized that he bad
an insane person to deal with, but he
was equal to the emergency. With the
utmost carelessness he inquired, “Got
to do it tonight?”
“No.”
“1 am very glad, as I am quite busy
now. Just send me word before you
come again, and I shall be ready for
you,” politely bowing the crazy person
out of the room.
Shortly the fellow was safe In the
bedlam whence he had managed to
escape.
The Home of a Genius.
Beethoven was born in a small house
in Bonn. His father had Inherited the
vice of drinking, and often Beethoven
and his younger brother were obliged
to take thelr Intoxicated father home.
He was never known to utter an un-
kind word about the man who made
his youth so unhappy, and he never
failed to resent it when a third person
spoke uncharitably of his father's
frality. Young Beethoven was thus
taught many a severe lesson In the
hard school of adversity, but his trials
were not without advantage to him.
They gave to his character that iron
texture which upheld him under his
heaviest burdens.
The Influence of Books.
Books have always a secret influence
on the understanding. We cannot at
pleasure obliterate ideas. He that
reads books of science, though without
any desire fixed of Improvement, will
grow more knowing. He that enter.
tains himself with moral or religious
treatises will imperceptibly advance in
goodness, The ideas which are often
offered to the mind will at last find a
lucky moment when it Is disposed to
receive them.—Samuel Johnson.
Precious Spices.
There are portions of the globe today
where spices are worth more than gold
or silver. “In the arctic region spices
are essential to health and happiness,”
wrote an explorer. “A dash of pepper,
a pinch of ground cinnamon, a little
nutmeg or a plece of ginger root re-
vives the jaded appetite wonderfully
in the north. I have seen shipwrecked
sallors fight over an.ounce of spices
with more flerceness than they ever
did for money.”
This One Especially.
From a Paris paper we take the fol
lowing conversation in a police court:
The President-It appears from your
record that you have been thirty-seven
times previously convicted, The Pris
oner (sententiously)-Man 1s not per.

Man is greater than a world, than

than In the creation of a universe.
