Smith, formerly of the Marienville Express, but now oue of Jenks township's teachers, gave the Republican office a pleasant call during institute week. This is (he opening week of the wioter term of 12 weeks at the Cla rion Normal school. The fall term was well attended and the winter term promises even a larger attendance. The testimonials which the mail brings in every day runs thus: "Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup cured the baby of croop ; or "it oured my little boy of soretbroat." We could not do without it." Ex-Commissioner l'hil. Emert has been laid up for some time with a painful affection of the knee of his cripled leg. At last accounts he was getting better and it is hoped noth ing serious will result from it. About all of the sick of the vi cinity are either out again or recov ering nicely. Davey Hilands and Johnny Hood are about the only ones still housed up, but they are coming along all right and will be able to go out in a short time. Attention is dirbCted to the card of C. M. Arner, who will give a share of his attention to the real estate bus iness. Mr. Aroer's facilities iu this direction are unsurpassed, and he will undoubiedly secure a large pat rouage in that line. Dr. Morrow is just recovering from a pretty good shaking up by the grip, aud now can tell just how it feels himself. We apprehend it won't be a difficult matter to convince the doctor that a fellow with a good lively attack feels "most mighty mean."

Chairmau Woods of Marienville is at the Republican Stale conven tion at Harrisburg this week as the representative of delegate J. W. Jamiesuo, who was unable to attend. The nomination of a candidate for Congress at-Large will be the most important work of the convention. Dr. Bowman reports Nicholas Weant of Nebraska as getting along nicely. Mr. W. has suffered for some weeks past with a carbuncle on the back of his neck that has been a ter ror, covering a space nearly a foot long by five or six in width. He bad a narrow escape but is doing well now. The beautiful piano used at the institute last week was one from the well knowu rousio house of E. A. Wilson & Co., Franklin, and was placed there by Mr. L. A. Clary, gen eral agent of the company. Mr. C. bas built up a large patronage for this house in Forest county, and all because of the square dealing they do. Among the January magazines, the New Peterson is one of the veiy best.

While all the members of the family were at church Wednesday evening of last week, the dwelling house of Elmer Mealy, of Tionesta township,' was totally destroyed by fire, all of the contents being con sumed with it. A low fire was left burning iu the stove, whicbmay have caused the conflagration, but there is nothing certain about it. The loss falls heavily on Mr. Mealy, who, we understand, bad no insurance. Messrs. Amann & Schellbatnmer, plumbers, are nicely fixed in their new quarters and have been kept bu sy in their line since locating their shop here. Tbeir work is first class and never fails to satisfy, while tbeir prices are reasonable. They have the assistance of Mr. N. E. Holmes, a practical tinuer, and all work in that line will receive tbe promptest attention. These gentlemen would like to stay among us and become permanent citizens ef our town aod if giveu proper eucourageoient will make tionesta tneir home, uive them a show. Mr. J. T.

The court house was crowded and the best of attention was giveu, all were charmed with the singing and marching songs of Ihe children. One of the special features f the evening was the de lightful music rendered by the Comug club of Titusville. The Judges of the contest were G. B. I-ord, W. L. btronp and John Ru pert. KcIlettTille. Mr. Thos. Gillooly bas Invented and patented a new gas jet that when once usod will be always used.

Tbe song is one of the latest ut and can be bad of all music dealers in the United States. The musio la Mrs. Bertha A. Barber's own composition, and la just the article ta make a hit. The soog was sung In New York Saturday night for tbe first time by Field's Min strels. The song is dedicated to J. Bates McKlnley, a life-long friend of Dr. Bar ber.

The people en joyed themselves in dancing and card games iuto a late hour. Refreshments were served to all present, numbering 40 in all and by the way tho good things disappeared we would think the supper was relished. The bop in Proper it Myers' hall Dec. 25, was well attended by out of town people considering the poor roads. Good music, Kood order and and a tip-top time was bad. The proprietors of the hall in tend to give another ball in a few weeks. F. J. Fleming bas purchased the old school house from W. 8. and G. K. John son. The building will be moved on the site of the old meat market ss soon as weathor will permit. Mr. Fleming will fit up the building for a meat market tho old one being much too small. About a week prior to Chiistmas a few of the citizens canvassed the town witu the object af raising money for a Christ mas tree. About $10 was the amount raised and two of the ladies were dispatched to Oil City to buy presents. The tree was in the school house aud tbe presents were distributed Dec. 23. The total number of presents ou the tree numbered 164. Space permitting we would give a detailed account of the eve nings entertainment but can only say that tbe bouse was packed to suffocation and tbe parts taken by the children were well rendered.

Wasteful ness at all times is foolish ; it is worse tbau that now when thousands are suffering from lack of tbe necessaries or life. The Pittsburg Times is an object lessuti in proper economy. It pre sents one of the chief necessities of life, all the news, at the lowest possible cost. Notwithstanding the fact that the Pittsburg Times is sold for only one cent a day, the claim is made for it that it is the most com plete newspaper published in Flits- burg, and that every occurence of bumau interest in every part of tbe globe is promptly reported io its col umns; tbat it is essentially a paper for tbe home, everything of au ob- jectiooal character being excluded; that it ir tbe only paper in 1 msburg whose matket reports are reliable aud revised every day iu the week; aud it is tbe ouly Pituburg newspa per which prints daily a carefully prepared department fur the ladies, and one a week report, prepared by experts, of special interest to agricul tural readers, and finally, it is the only Pittsburg newspaper which prints daily the highest class ol fic tiou. Io addition to all this, the Times offers to all its readers at a umuinal cost an opportunity of securing one of the bighrst class magazines print ed in the country, and to the ladies their choice during the year 1894, of twelve or tbe roost approved paper pateros, with a privilege of selecting from a list of 50 000 Send ( r a sample c;py ' f ihe Times hieh i' bp en m 1 1 rl y. u 'r e, ai.d rr li 1 1 - promises are fulfill d : tit i. i no Htff nl f t ihe Times in V"r l,n hI ty. a pr flihl" liniit . ran In- Ublibbud by writing tor tho agoucy.
