Did you ever! SH - THE bill raising the salaries of all the judges in the state was signed by Gover- nor Pennypacker. A veto would have been endorsed by the people, but the signing does not meet public approval. ELMER SHocH, of the Chronicle, has nomination for sheriff of Union county. He got it over primaries last Saturday. Lewisburg received the republican three competitors at the His party did the right thing, as he long ago earned all there is in the cffice. - GovErRNOR Pennypacker's signature, placed on the Zern anti-cigarette bill on Monday, makes it a misdemeanor, pun ishable by a fine of from $100 to $300, for any person to sell cigarettes to min. ors. Cigarette paper also falls under the ban. The law goes into effect at once. . LAST week we said Quay was at Har- risburg and something was likely to drop. The libel bill, a measure to muz zle the newspapers of Penn’a is the result. Quay again came to Harrisburg and spent Easter with the Governor. Hard to tell what was hatched out this trip. Time will tell. - . TEoDY makes the amusing declara- tion that its unwise to interfere with the trusts as there are ‘bad trusts and good trusts.” Well, why don't he point them out? The mnextthiog them would be, some one declaring there is a bad devil and a good devil, hence had better the devil alone let Tur short way to reach the "bad trusts,” Mr. President, is by tariff re form, whether bv the Iowa idea, or any other. That will avoid tedious suits in courts which are largely under trust in. fluences. The tariff bred the trusts, and a repeal of the tariff on trust manu. factures, will stop this robbery. Ix Howard township, we are inform. ed, the school board has in view the re- duction of the number of schools from seven to four, to even up on the increase of salary, making the minimum $35. This would be a novel way of getting even, and be detrimental to the teachers by reducing the number in employ. Tur State College Times’ will hence. forth be operated by a stock company composed of members of the college fac | nity. The sale was made Monday, and the consideration was $1,625. The ont. standing accounts were bought by the partners of the retiring firm, Robert Burns and Jobs Hamilton. For some | years it was a pronounced Quay | organ, and since Hamilton has vo poli- | tical standing he has no occasion to be | ects attention to the ! fact that during the Spanish-American | war, the Spanish bonds sold below 30. | At the same time British bonds reached | the maximun of 1137.8, having gained On an average more than a point a year since they were “converted” in 1888, Soon after peace was declared, Spain | found her credit unexpectedly and great ly improved, the year of 1902 Spanish | bonds rose to 91 34.

ENORMOUS APPROPRIATIONS. - | | It would be well if the American peo- | ple carefully studied the enormous ap- propriations made at the recent session of | congress, There is food for reflection in the fact that of the £753.484,018 appro. | priated for various purposes atthe last | $307,704,309, or | for expenses of of congress, one half, session nearly was Nearly total drafts upon the treasury, or $13g,- one-fifth of the 847.600, was for the single item of pen- | sions and over $80,000,000 was for naval purposes, If we put over against these items the meager allowance of less than | $2,000,000 to keep up our notoriously un- derpaid and poorly sustained diplomatic and comsular service and less than $600, - 000 for the promotion of our vitally im- | portant agricaltural interests, it looks | somehow, as if we were not so much | given to cultivating the arts of peace as | we sometimes credit ourselves with | being.” n— p— | IT has been demonstrated by experi- | ment on a lot of clerks at Washington that eating embalmed beef produces a beautiful pink complexion, the envy of all women. If continued no doubt a lot of sisses would be the result, WHENEVER you hear a fellow how! “yellow journalism’ papers, you can depend on it he at some time had his measure taken. Upright good citizens seldom complain - or cuss the news. The happiness that comes out of a quart bottle may develop into a bogs- head of misery the next morning. - RECENT DEATHS. E. R.

Regular Use of Hyomel Cures Most Stubborn Case of Catarrh. No other medicine gives such prompt relief as Hyomel in the treatment of ca. tarrah. The first breath of this remedy soothes and heals the irritated and smarting air passage, and the regular use for a few days or weeks will cure the most stab. born case. Some of the reports from those who have been cured of catarth by Hyomel read like miracles, John 8. Gray. of Richmond Hills, Pa., writes: “Iam 852 years old and have been a sufferer with catarrh in the head for 25 or 30 years. [| have doctored with many specialists and they all told me that the disease was incurable on ac. count of my age. After using Hyomel a short time I was greatly benefited and can now say that | am entirely cured, It bas been six months since I stopped using the remedy and I still remain cured.” In nearly every town and village of the country can be found those who have been cured of catarrh by Hyomel, In Gellefonte there are probably over a thousand people whose ith has been restored by this remarkable treatment, Sidoey Krumrine has sold package alter preaaue and every one has been with his personal guarantee to refund the money if it did not cure.
