Bower, Esq., of Bellefonte, as a most desirable nominee, for one of the Judges of the Superior Court of Pennsylvania, In 1873 he was admitted to the Centre county Bar, and ever since, for a period of twenty-five years, he has been continu. ously and actively engaged in the prac tice, Immediately upon admission his abilities were recognized by being made a partner of the well known firm of Orvis, Alexpnder & Bower which, upon the election of J. H. Orvis to the bench, be- came the firm of Alexander & Bower, Jpon Judge Orvis’ retirement from the bench, Mr (Bower was selected as a mem. ber of thejpresent firm of Orvis, Bower & Orvis, which has been one of the leading legal firms of this section and in the en. joyment of an extensive practice in local and the higher ‘courts, since 188s, ~~ EDITOR & PROP | Superior | Upon the death of Judge Orvis, Mr. Bow. er became the senior member of this | firm, In 1894, the democrats of this the 49th Judicial District, embracing Centre l and Huntingdon counties, unanimously selected Mr. Bower as their nominee for In the campaign he eloped strength, and while the dis. trict cast a large republican Inajonty of 2300 for the state ticket, Mr, pouent had a majority of 1470, conclu- sively showing that his eminence in the President Judge. dev Bower's op- | profession was fully recognized at home, and his other qualities of citizenship were appreciated by our people.

The steppes are covered with snow more than six months of the year. The cows subsist on the tufls of grass which crop above the snow, and the rayd of the sun on the snow are so dazzling as to cause blindness. To ob. viate this calamity it occurred to a kind- hearted man to protect the cows’ eyes in the same way as those of human beings, and he manufactured smoked colored spectacles which could be safely worn by These spectacles were a great | cattie, success and are now worn by upward of 40,000 head of cattle. which no longer suffer from snow blindness.
