The deer season expires to-mor 1

the best tetson fur deer in many years

The Clarion Jaclctonian makes the
following very straight forward bit:
The Franklin aud Oil City papers are
cooking up such a sentiment in Ve
nango county that Mra Dinsmore will
probably go scot free. The principal
argument advanced by these papers is
that a Venango county jury must ac
quit the prisoner, or it will be subject
to the accusation that it don't kuow
any more tbsn a Clarion county jury.
In view of the growing frequency
and ease of obtaining divorce, it is
suggested that prizes be given to mar
ried couples who bave lived together
fir a stipulated term of years Frank
lin New. And this reminds us that
in glancing over the court minutes of
Crawford county a few days ago, and
noting the iiumher of divorce oaes
that figured therein, that might justly
be dubbed the county of miss fit mar
riagts.

ject, by allowing Ibero pay while in
attendance which removes all former
excuses for nou atteudance. We hope
to see a larger attendance lhau ever
before at a county institute.

Mr. D W. Clark, of Tionesta, a
business man well known iu the Oil
Region, is of ihe opinion that an ex
cellent quality of iron may be made
from bog ore, using natural gns for
fuel. He sayt there is large deposits
of ore, both bog and kidney, all
through the oil country, notwithstand
ing they were extensively worked
mauy years ago, and with natural gas
in limitless quantities he believes the
iron industry may be revived and a
new Oil R-giou bnuanza opened up
Mr. Clark said to the Derrick tbat he
had recently beeu making tumeexper
i men is io Tionesta and bad succeeded
in making a fiue quality of iron. He
had been talking with Mr. W. J.
Young and other Oil City business
men on the subject, aud they were of
the opinion also tbat there was a pos
sibility, with the aid of our gas, to re
vive the lost art of iron making
tbrongb tbe oil countries. Mr. Claik
taid there was no limit to the amount
of ore that could he had in Forest,
Warren, Venango, Clarion, Armstrong
and Butler counties, and be believed
this was a matter well worth the al
leuliou of iron men. Derrick.

he never caused a passenger to ralcis the

Slander Is truly "the pestilence tbat
walks in darkne.v ," remarks the 8-rantn
Truth. More reputations are hinted away
by false friends than are openly destroyed
by public enemies. Slander Is the heart
searching dagger of the assansia. It stabs
the valuable character you hold so dear
with a whisper, with a nod, with a smile.
Tbe Jury In the caso of Luther Shatter,
who was on trial all last week for the
murder of Isaac Colby and bis wife Nora,
returned a verdict of guilty of murder In
the first degree, on Friday, at Lock Haven.
It was one of the most brutal murders tbat
was ever perpetrated in tbat section. Three
other men await trial on tbe same charge.
An exchange says : "There is a law re
quiring merchanta receiving qunensware,
to burn the straw in which it is packed.
They dare not sell or give It away, because
queensware comes to us from foreiurn
countries and It la packed in or with straw
that may contain noxious seeds such as
Canada thistle, and it Is to prevent the In
troduction of bad Head into this country
that the law requires the burning of the
straw."
In the case sf a violation of the liquor
law, recently ried before him, Judge
Gordon, of Philadelphia, decided tbat
Section 17 of the Brooks High License
law, wbich makes it a misdemeanor for
persona not engaged in the liquor frafno
to give liquor to a minor, is unconstitu
tional because it la legislation outride of
ihe purpose of tbe act as declared by its
title "An act to rextrain and regulate the
sale of vinous and spirituous, malt or
brewed liquors, or any admixture thereof."

Where dlmplos play at hide and seek.

Baby of what are you dreaming now?
What do you see with innoiiit eyes,
Visitants pure from Christmas skyst
Angels will wutch you well to-night,
Coming each from their home so bright,
For tbe sake of the Infant long ago,
Whoso birthnigbt each year will brighter
glow.
In the stable at Bethlehem,
A ng-tla sang the sweetest psahn,
Wlso men brought him gilts rrom afar,
Guiding their way, a glittering star.
Sweet to the children Is Christmas night
Visions of pleasure fair and bright,
Filling with rapture each little heart,
Happiness oomplete to each Impart.
WHAT AM I TO DO P
The symptoms of Biliousness are un
happily'bnt too well known. They differ
in d I Heron t Individuals to some extent.
A Bilious man Is seldom a breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alat, ho has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. Ilia tongue will hardly bear
Inspection at any time; if It Is not white
and furred, It is rough, at all events.
The digest! ve system Is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be a symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hemorrhoids or even loas
of blood. There may be giddiness and
often headache and aridity or flatulence
and tondernexs In tho pit of the stomach.
To correct all this If not eff.-ct a cure try
Green's August Flower, it eoNts h'lta tri
fle and thousands attest Its efficacy.

It is specially edited by a trained corps
of writ- rs selected for the purpose of '
making the best paper.
It Is adaptod to the Improvement and
enjoyment ot both aexos, of all ages, of
every family whether a resident of the
city, villaue or country.
Not a word of crime or Impure sugges--
tion in any part of tho paper.
It Is an old pa or and carries its age ana
reputation equally well.
Now we nro seeking a new and larger
circle of readers. As an Inducement to
this end the Weekly Pres in connection
with any four do'lar magazine In America
will be sent for tho single subscription
price of such magazine.
Or, on implication, we will make a spec
ial combination of any two or more pe
riodicals published in America, either
