"Cooney," of the Nl'Veytown Journal, runs

Mr. Isaac Lamp, who has been in Johns
town, for several weeks past, doing the brick
work on the new school building in Wood
vale, returned home on Friday night, having
completed the job that day. In topping out
the S chimney s the weather was so cold that he
had to build a fire on the scaffold for the pur
pose of thawing his mortar ; the brick were
hardly in position before the mortar wag fro

The price of printing paper has gone up
considerably within the past few weeks, with
prospects of a further advance. Publishers
will be compelled to cut the acquaintance of

so at the beginning of the new 'volume, in
January, and those who fail to pay will have to
borrow a paper to see their na me published

We see an item in a great many of our ex
changes to the effect that wild turkeys abound
in large numbers in the woods throng - bout this
county, whole droves of them being seen to
gether. This will certainly be news to our
hunters, who have roamed_ the woods almost
daily since the turkey seiLson opened, and as
yet not over half-a-dozen of these birds have
been killed in this neighborhood. Instead of
turkeys being pl...nry they are almost as scarce
as hen teeth.
Diphtheria, that scour^•e of the nursery, has
broken out afresh in Jultnitown and vicinity,
and in some instances whole families have
been carried off by it. 'The disease seems to
baffle the skill of physicians, and when it

one against the recovery of the patient.—
Prompt treatment, on the first appearance of
sore throat, is absolutely necessary in order
to save the tire of the patient, and even then
the chances for recovery are not the most
flattering.
It is amazing how many people wlta never
have anything, who never do anything, and
who owe everybody, manage to dress and live
so well and maintain their grade of respecta
bility in the community. It is fashionable
now to contract bills and jump them. For
our part, we prefer that our friends steal from
its directly. We do not expect that stealing
will leave us blissfully ignorant of the cpera
tions, but in many instances we are placed in
that position as r egards the operators.—lled

Sz..awbrkklge & Clothier, the large dry goods

will send, in any quantity desired, to all
S;iperintendents who may ap;ily for it. In
addition to the free gift of the book they will
put the name of the school on the cover and
even pay the express charges. We have told
two or three Sunday School Superintendents
of (hi:. extraordinary liberal offer, all of whom
we believe have sent in their orders.

The Huntingdon 1.; Broad Top railroad stock
has jumped from $4.00 per share several
months ago to $11.50 per share. The road is
in good condition, is ably managed, has first
class accommodations and is increasing its
business daily. When the Powell furnace is
put in blast it will add considerably to the
business of the road and run the stock higher.
With a little bit more liberality in string to
the efficient Superintendent, Mr. Gage, from
the Philadelphia headquarters, we firmly be

terially increased and the interests of the
territory through which it passes greatly

If the people of Huntingdon desire to ex
perience their share of the business boom
which is now sweeping over the country, they
will have to wake up and do something to
wards bringiugabout such a result. In this con
nection we would suggett to the Board of
Trade that they take the matter in hand and
see if they cannot assist in giving an impetus
to the business interests of this community.
Let them call a special meeting and discuss
the propriety of making a more towards the
building of a narrow gauge railroad between
Iluntingdnn and M'Alavy'e Fort. If they take
hold of this enterprise in the right spirit, and
call a convention of the friends of the measure)
we believe that sufficient funds can be raised
to build and equip the road. Think of it,
gentlemen of the Board of Trade, and if our
suggestion meets your approval let us all ge
to work for the success of the enterprise_ •
ANOTHER MECHANICAL CURIOSITY.—
A week or twe ago we published a detailed
description of a curious and ingenious clock
in the possession of one of Altoona's citizens,
and now we see that a resident of that city is
at work manufacturing a clock which will
knock the one we described far into the shade.
It will certainly be a curiosity. It parades
sixty-five automatic tigures—a beer garden,
with men drawing beer and passing it out ;
a linseed oil mill in running order; with half
a dozen workmen engaged in different parts
of the business ; a blacksmith shop with mon
hammering iron and others shoeing horses ;
women bringing refres'aments ; a summer
house, fountains and games in progress ; a
quarry with men hewing stone ; a saw-mill
turning out miniature boards ; a shoe factory,
with men and women working at different
parts of shoes ; a grist-mill with a man bring.
ing grain to a hopper, and others carrying
the bads away, while buckets go up and down
and mill-stones buzz ; residences, where
visitors call, and servants are about their
work, etc., etc., etc. The mills are driven by
water which falls from the top and is drawn
up again. The whole complicated contrivance
is run by a weight of ninety pounds. He has
been at work at the clock for the last sixteen
years, but hopes to have it ready to exhibit to
the public by the first of January next.
EDITORIAL DEAD-HEADING.—This is
a subject intelligently and feelingly discussed
by the DeWitt Observer. It says one of the
beauties and charms of an editor's life is in
dead-heading it on all occasions. No one
who has never tasted of the sweets of that
bliss can begin to take in its glory and its
happiness. IJe does $lOO worth of adver
tising for a railroad, and gets a "pass" for a
year, and rides $25 worth ; and then he is
looked upon as a dead bead or a half blown
dead-beat. Ile "puffs" a theatre or concert
troupe $lO worth and gets $1 worth in com
plimentaries and is passed in "free." If the
hall is crowded he is begrudged the room he
occupies—for if his complimentaries were
paying tickets the troupe, would be so much
in pocket. Ile blows and puffs a church
festival free to any desired extent and does
the poster printing at half rates and rarely
gets a "thank you" for it. It goes in as part
of his duty as an editor. lie does more work
gratuitously for the town and community
than all the rest of the population put togeth
er, and gets cursed for it all, in many instan
ces, where a man who doliates a dollar for the
4th of July, base ball club or church, is
gratefully remembered. Oh, it is a sweet
thing to be an editor. He passes "free," you
know.
TERRIBLE CALAMITY. The Tyrone
correspondent of the Altoona Tribune relates
the following :—John Briuey is employed at
Study & Co.'s ore mines, near Birmingham,
and lives in one of the Huntingdon Furnace
Company's houses, not far from the mines.—
(hi Wednesday evening last his wife went out
to gather sonic firewood preparatory to get
ting supper, leaving in the house three small
children—one a baby a year old. During the
absence of the mother the building caught
fire from some unknown cause, and before she
returned the flames had obtained such head
way it was impossible for any one to get near
the building. The two older children were
rescued, but were badly burned. The younger
one perished in the flames. In searching
among the debris not a charred bone of its
remains could be found. Mr. Parks, recently
married, had Lis household furniture stored
in the house, getting ready to go to house
keeping, and along with Mr. Briney's was .4
destroyed.
SUNDAY i7.3C11001 - 4 CONVENTION--The
Seventh Annual Sunday School Convention
of Huntingdon Presbytery, will be held in
the Presbyterian church, at Tyrone, on Tues
day and Wednesday, December 2nd and 3d .
All the miniaters, Superintendents, and two
teachers from each school within the Presby
tery, are expected to attend the Convention.
We understand, also, that a general invitation
is extended to the public. A large attendance
is expected, and the folks in town have pro
vided homes fur all. This will be an inter
esting session, and we hope that the Sunday
schools of the entire Presbytery will be well
represented. Delegates are requested to
notify ltev. S. M. Moore, D. D., of Tyrone,
during the current month, of their intention
to be present. The address of welcome will
be delivered by Mr. S. S. Blair, of Tyzoue.—

REAL ESTATE PURCHA SES .—Jacob
Eby has purchased from John E. Garver the
property known as the "Eby Mill Farm," for

Assignee's sale the farm in Germany Valley,
recently the property of John Bowman, at
$3,500. W. B. Leas has purchased the A.
Spanogle farm in Germany Valley, near the
Brethren's church, for which he pays $0,400
cash.—Mt. Union Times.
ALL ABOUT HOME.—"The Complete
Home." Mrs. Julia McNair Wright's new
book, just published by J. C. McCurdy k Co. ,
of Philadelphia, has received the warmest
commendations from the Press and Clergy in
all sections of the couutry.
The following extracts dearly indicate that
it is a work of sterling merit.
The Christian Advocate says :—A book of
more practical utility will seldom, if ever, be
found outside of inspiration.
The Presbyterian says :--The prevailing
feature of the book is its good sense, and
when we say this of such a book we pay it
the highest compliment we can imagine. It
is true everywhere to the Evangelical faith.
The Journal and Messenger, Cincinnati, 0.,
says :—We believe that it would be of un
speakable benefit to every family in our land
could it be read not only by fathers and
mothers, but by sons and daughters as they
are growing up. Its healthy tone, its com
mon sense and truthfulness commend it, and
can but render it of the highest value.
The N. Y. School Journal says :—ln this
work we have all the lights and shadows that
go to make up the picture of a real home. It
imparts instruction in the whole range of
domestic government in the most pleasing
and effective manner.
The Mo. Republican says :—This is essen
tially a home book. It must have been dic
tated by a heart that has been baptized in the
beauty of the holiness of home. * * * The
sentiment of the book is lofty while the style
is natural, cheerful, easy and fluent, and the
pages are so many bright pictures of domestic
quiet and comfort.
• Rev. Dr. March says :—lt is so well written
that it cannot fail to be read, and it cannot be
read without bringing sweetness and light
into somebody's home.
From the above, it will be seen that this is
a sensible, beautiful, and extremely valuable
book. Its sphere is wide as the world itself
and will exert a powerful influence for good
in every home into which it enters.
Agents for its sale are wanted everywhere.
MISSIONARY CONFERENCE IN THE
LUTHERAN CHURCH.—A meeting will be held
in the Lutheran Church, of this place, on the

SOME AGED WITNESSES.—In the case
of Enoch
,Isenberg's administrators against
Sarah J. Allen et al., which was tried here
on Monday and Tuesday of this week, the
court instructed the jury to render a verdict
for plaintiff, subject to a legal question
which was reserved by the court. It was an
oction of ejectment for a tract of land situate
in Porter township, there being a dispute in
regard to the same. One of the remarkable
features about the cas , , was the advanced age
of a number of the witnesses who testified in
it. Judge Graffus Miller furnished us the
following list showing the ages of eight of the
witnesses, amounting in the aggregate to 590
years :
John Porter .
John Piper
John Itinger
Mr. Lefferd
Michael Householder
John Evarta
Samuel Isenberg
Jacob Kough .74
Mr. Kough identified a deed which he
wrote when he was a young man teaching
school near Alexandria, 47 years ago. It is
seldom, indeed, that a man is called on to
identify a paper which he wrote nearly fifty
years before.—Monitor of last week.
ANOTIIER TREATMENT FOR DIPIITHE
RIA.—NearIy every paper that we open con
tains a recipe for the treatment of diphtheria,
and among the many that we have seen we
give place to the following, and if it does
what is claimed it will do it will cause a
radical change in the treatment of this dread
ed disease. Here it is, and if' it does no good
it can do no harm :
"Quite a little discovery for the treatment
of diphtheria has been mad• in Minnesota. A
young man, whose arm had been amputated,
was attacked with diphtheria before the heal
ing took place, and instead of the matter
incident to that disease being deposited in the
throat, the greater part appeared on the
amputated arm ; aid diphtheria was very
light and easily managed. Dr. Davis, of
Mankota, profited by this, and in his next
case of diphtheria blistered his patient's chest
and on this blistered part the chief deposits
appeared. This was also an easy case of the
disease. The theory of Dr. Davis is that
diphtheria usually appears in the throat be
cause of the thinness of the lining of the
throat. Hence when the blister breaks the
skin upon any other part of the body the
disease appears there."
A VALUABLE DEED. A Cambria
county exchange says that by far the largest
single deed ever filed for record in Cambria
county reached Recorder Lake's hands last
week. It is the deed given by the State of
Pennsylvania to the Pennsylvania railroad
company for the old system of internal im
provements known as the "public works,"
the consideration involved being $7,500,000.
It is written on parchment, with here and
there illuminated letters, and throughout
displaying splendid penmanship, and the
whole instrument is bound up in a book of
32 pages. It was brought to Ebensburg by
three custodians, and after it had been spread
upon the record by Deputy Lattener was to
ken to the Pennsylvania railroad authorities
in Altoona on Wednesday morning last, tin.
der special charge of John E. Scanlan, Esq.
The document is esteemed of value by the
Pennsylvania railroad.
Itching Pies—Symptoms and Cure.
The symptoms are moisture, like prespira
tion, intense itching, increased by scratching,
very distressing, particularly at night, as if
pin worms were crawling in and about the
rectum ; the private parts are sometimes af
fected ; if allowed to continue very serious
results may follow. Dr. Swayne's All-Healing

To enable this office to dispatch with hatter
facility the rapidly increasing current busi
ness, a change in the system of arranging the
records and tiles has been made, which will
render it necessary that all inquiries for con
&lion of pension claims on account of servi,s
rendered after March 4, 1861, should contain
the name of the soldier who performed mili
tary service, with his state, company and
regiment, as well as number of his claim or
pension certificate as the case may he. In
quiries which do not contain the above in
formation will not be answered, except in
special cases where failure to furnish it is
expinined."
A SURE CURE FOR TOOTIIACUE.—Dr.
Dyce Duckworth contributes a short memor
andum on the subject of toothache. Ile was
called on to treat a case of very severe tooth
ache, and tried various ordinary remedies,
including chloroform and carbolic acid, with.
out benefit to the patient. Ili then remem
bered having read that the pain might be
relieved by holding in the mouth a solution a
bicarbonate of soda. lie at once gave the
patient half a drachm in an ounce of water,
and, to his astonishment, the pain ceased
immediately and complete relief was secured.
He thinks that, as the remedy is so simple,
and the disease so distressing and often
intractable, this treatment may be worthy of
notice and incitation. —Ex.
"An Old Physician's Advice."
Coughs, Colds, Asthma and other pulmonary
affections should be looked to and promptly
treated in time, and thus all serious results
may be avoided, and for this purpose we know
of no better remedy than "DR. SWAYNE'S COM
POUND SYRUP OF WILD CHERRY." The first
dose gives relief, and it is sure to cure the
worst Cough or Cold in a very short time.—
Try a 25 cent bottle and be convinced, and
you will thus avoid a doctor's bill, and most
likely, a spell of sickness. Price 25 cents
and $l.OO per bottle, or six bottles $5.00. The
large size is the most economical. Prepared
only by Dr. Swayne & Son, 330 North Sixth
street, Philadelphia. Sold by all prominent
druggists. Nov. 28-Iy.
I deem it my duty to acquaint suffering lin.
inanity with the fact that ST. JACOBS OIL is
the most beneficial remedy ever introduced :
this I have practically tested. For the past
sixteen years I have suffered with Rheuma
tism, and so severely that I was often robbed
of my night's rest. A change of weather
would have the most painful effect on me, for
then I could move neither hands nor feet. I
tried every known remedy, but of no avail ;
at last somebody recommended ST. Jeorts
and I concluded to try it, but with little hope
for relief. Having hardly used half a bottle,
the pains diminished, and to day I am well
and hardy once more. The small sum of fifty
cents bad cured me.

T HE PASTOR AND THE GOBBLER.
1311 the Tlcird of Tower Hail.
There were, and are, and will be towns,
Which needed, need, and will need teaching;
Where pastors were, and are, and will be
Installed to do the people's preaching.
There was, and is, a town existing
With people in it, well intentioned,
Who kept, and keep, a worthy man
As pastor, for the purpose mentioned.
Whenc'er on duties, he descants,
If pure benevolence he teaches
By gifts, his hearers prove that they
Are pleased to practice what he preaches.
One of the parish seat one morn—
A farmer kind and able—
A nice fat turkey, raised on corn,
To grace the pastor's table.
The farmer's lad went with the fowl,
And thus addressed the pastor :
"Blame me if I ain't tired! Here's
A gobbler from my master!"
The pa tor said: "Thou should'st not thus
Present the fowl to me ;
Come! take my chair, and for me act,
And I will act for thee."
The preacher's chair received the boy,
The fowl the preacher took—
Went out with it, and then came in,
With pleasant smile and look ;
And to his young pro tem, he said
"Dear Sir, my honored master
Presents this turkey, and his best
Respects to you his pastor."
"Good!" said the boy ; "your master is
A gentleman and scholar;
My thanks to him, and, for yours , if
Here is a half a dollar 1"
The pastor felt around his mouth
A most peculiar twitching,
And, to the obbler holding fast,
Ile "bolted" for the kitchen.
Ile gave the turkey to the cook,
And came back in a minute,
Then took the youngster's hand and left
A half a dollar in it.
The boy's good sense, the fifty cents,
And preacher's sense of duty
Made the affair quite sensible,
And rife with moral beauty.
The lad into his money box,
The fifty cents let fall,
He saved enough, and bought a suit
At the famous TOWER HALL.
The pastor saw him in his clothes,
So neatly, finely dressed,
And hurried off to TOWER HALL
His money to invest.
Then all the parish followed suit,
And every man was suited !
How much that gobbler THE TOWER helped
Can never be computed.
