A doctor charges §1 for » prescription and the patient says: “Oh, peshaw-—is that enough 7"' An undertaker charges $100 for conducting s funeral and he is perfectly lovely with everybody inside and outside the family. A man buys a gold brick and spologizes for not having bitten before. An editor wal%s a mile in the hot sun to get the facta of a death or wedding or social function and spends three hours writing it up sod tells lies prais- ing people until he bates himself Then if he makes an insignificant omission, or charges three cents straight for three exira copies, he is astingy, careless, good-for-nothing old cuss, who never gets anything right and charges four times the price of city papers twice aa large. “ Graastark.™ The attraction to be presented at Garman’s Operas House, Bellefonte, Monday evening, 12th iost., will be the dramatic version of George Barr McCutcheon’s famous novel * Graus- tark ”’ or “* A Love Behind a Throne,” This attraction bas proven to be one of the biggest successes in recent years, The ca: t is exceptionally strong and is headed by Miss Gertrude Perry.
