ed by Rev, W. H. Groh, pastor of the
Reformed church, then living at
Boalsburg.
Mr. snd Mrs. Conley began house-
keeping shortly after their marriage
on the Dr. Lieb farm, on the Brush
Valley rowd, east of Centre Ha'l
From there they moved to Centre
Halil, and lived here during the time
that the buildings were erec’ed on the
Conley farm, which prior to that time
was a portion of the Keller homestead,
In the spring of 1871, Mr. and Mrs
Conley moved to their present homes,
living there continuously, except for a
year or two during which time they
again lived in Centre Hall,
Mr. Conley had been seriously ill for
some weeks, but recovered and on the
day of the anniversary was able to en-
joy the occasion to its fallest extent
Their two sons, J. Will Conley, of
Bellefonte, and James Conley, of Free-
port, Illinois, and Mies Nellie Conley,
the only grandchild, a daughter of the
former son, were present to cheer and
give comfort,
Maoy of the guests present were
relatives of Mr, and Mrs. Conley, and
came from several near by counties.

Decker ¥aw Mil Barged.
The saw mill operated by Thomas J,
and Colonel Decker, doing business
under the firma name of Decker Broth-
ers, near Penn Hall, was totally de
stroyed by fire Monday night, the loss
tothe firma being not less than one
thousand dollars, on which there was
no insurance,
The fire was first discovered by the
Henry Mark family, who live at some
distance. When the Deckers got to
the mill about everything was con.
sumed. Luckily there was but a light
loss of sawed lumber,
The mill was located on the Samuel
Musser timber tract along the pike
ewst of Peon Hall. The timber is
about two-thirds sawed out, and in ad-
dition to this the firm has another
timber tract which was being sawed
from the same point
The Deckers will at once begin the
reconstruction of their mill. This is
the second fire they had in the short
space of two years. The other fire oc-
curred when they were sawing on the
Mingle and Arpey tract, beiow Penns
Cave.

LUCKY SWISS HOUSEWIFE.

Washing For Her,
Swiss methods of lnundering are orig/
inal, practical und labor saving. The
women there have learned well how to
make the best use of their opportuni
ties with the least exertion, How they
use the tourists every one who has
traveled in the country of the Alps
knows. They also know how to muke
nature do their housework
In most of the towns everything that
is washed or cleaned is washéd or
cleaned In one of the big watering
troughs that stand at regular intervals
along the main thoroughfares, Into it
goes everything from potatoes to hu
man beings, and the only sanitary
regulation existent is that it must be
cleaned out with a large broom made
of bush or twigs after the potatoes
have had thelr bath But
rains then everything else gives way
to the family wash, no matter if it Is
Thursday or Bunday or Saturday or
Wednesday, for in Switzerland they
geek the rainy days for wash days, in
