OP THE DAY. '
'Hint "fools rush In wheie angels fear
to tread" Is n saying which is often
brought forcibly to one's nttentlon and
yesterday an Instance of this fact was
the outcome of tho visit to West
Scrnnton of two Gypsies, members of a
gang now located nt or near Harbor
town Tho two, both women, were go
hig the i omuls of all the public! places
on tils sldo and had i cached Whet
ling's lunch info. Their modo of pio
ledure was like this-
Whenever some one entered the pliee
who reimed worth their attention thev
greeted him with "Tell your fortune!"
Thus was Constable Tim Jones held up.
'Aha'" quoth tho constable, In an In
audible voice, 'this Is easy." And so
It was He was directed to place a
small en In on his right hand and then
listen. Then the swnrthv exponent of
the silence which teveals the hidden
things of the future and recalls tluii
of the past, did onn up f vion to this
plain, matter-of-fnet constable
"You ato In love She Is a widow,
blue eyes, dark hair, nnd of a divine
loutoui, nnd she half loves jou She Is
w oi Hi much of money and land and'
here thu constable drew a deep breath.
"I for more money will tell von the
ret " said she. He left ostensibly to
get moie money, but renlly to get a
wairant. Meanwhile he delegatid a
friend to ro and get his future divulged
The friend went and whin thr ((insta
ble, armed with his variant returned,
woman and friend had dlsnppenied.
However, the other woman was able
and willing to continue the "next ihap
ter "
Worried about his friend and also
whether tho future which had been dis
closed to him was too true to believe,
Constable Jones told the woman to got
down to the present and see If "he
knew what was going to happen right
n vv iv No she could not. He seiTed
the warrant and agreed to let Alder
man John tell "fortunes" to them The
other woman was found nnd both ta
ken befoie the alderman and given a.
hearing. They could not pay the flno
which Is rather heavy for their offense,
on in other words, they would not be
able to pay to have thir fortuncstold.
They gave their names as Mary Guv
and Louisa Hansom. Good names and
applicable to both women. They were
placed In the Wet Pcranton police sta
tion Then there was a rumpus. Such
howling hns not been heard hereabouts
.for seventl davs. Miss Guy took sud
denly 111 and seemed about to die. To
make the best of a bad bargain, they
were allowed to go, the lesson being
consldcicd Mifllclent punishment.

How About
the Flies ?
Have you
made pre
parations to
bombard them ? They've
sailed for this port with
their ammunition of war for
a summer seige. Be ready
for them. Get screens.
Theyre cheap this week.
Will buy window screens
IOC 30 inches and adjustable
to any window. Worth a third
more.
Affy Vill buy full size screen
OyC doors, nicely stained
and worth every cent of one
dollar.
r Will buy elaborately
V C- made screen doors, nice
ly finished with fancy trimmings.
Their regular price was $ioO.
A Bedroom No store in
Suit the whole
For $24.98 state can ap
proach this
suit for a third more than
we ask for it regularly. It
is a beauty in every sense.
Built of solid oak, beautiful
ly finished and polished.
The dresser has a French
plate mirror 24x0 in. This
is how the suit is made up
and regularly sold by others:
1 solid oak bedstead.. "
1 solid oak dresser... . $19.50
1 solid oak washstandj
1 rocking chair 1,59
2 straight chairs 2.00
1 brass foot table 1.59
1 good mattress 2.50
1 good spring 2.25
2 feather pillows 2.00
$31.13
This is positively the lowest
this suit has ever sold for in any
store. We've about twenty of
them that go on sale today for
$24.98
instead of 31.43, and if .you're
not satisfied it's the biggest fur
niture bargain you've ever seen,
we'll be sadly mistaken.
