The canning season is at haud and
tho thrilty housewife is busily engaged in
"putting up" tho good things that nature
has bo abundantly furnished. The prices
for berries and pineapples are tho lowest
for years, and it is also said that peaches
will be unusually choap, and you should

is hoadquarters for these articles as well

In speaking of the potato crop and Its
outlook, an exchange says : "The potato
raisers have been mystified over the ap
pearance of the potato tops during
the last month. In many catches the
leaves have turned sere and brown as of
early fall. Some who used parts green
attributed the cause to it, but others who
have not used this poison complain of
the samo troublo. Those who are well
posted in the matter say the brown and
dying tops are caused by a blight, the re
sult of a fungus at the root of tho plant"
The resolution of the Pennsylvania
School Teachers' Association, calling
upon the Legislature to increase tho
school term in rural districts from six to
nine months, is a move toward ending
an injustice that has long existed. The
public school system should provide
meani of education to all alike, yet the
children who reside in towns havo long
had a decided advantage over the chil
dren of farmers, not alone from superior
instructors, but by reason of from three
to four months more schooling each
year. Fhila. Press.

Some time during last Wednesday
night Jas. H. Kelly's bicycle was stolen
from the porch ol his father-in-law, G.
W. Robinson. During tho forenoon of
Thursday a stranger, who had been
noticed about the day before In a fairly
well "jagged" condition, was seen at
tempting to ride a wheel on upper Elm
street. The authorities were notified and
went after the man, and found him sleep
ing off his "jag" on ono of the islands
below town. He was placed under
arrest and brought to the Hotel Agnew
where ho was placed in a room with a
guard ovor him and given a chance to
finish his nap while a warrant was sworn
out. But the guard was not very vigilent
and the man, who gave his name as Jo
seph Hawthorne, and his residence as Mc
Keesport, Pa., tied the bed sheets to
gether, swung himself out of tho third
story window, dropped fifteen feet to the
ground and made a dash for liberty. But
in his descent be passed the window of
Mrs. Agnew's room and she immediately
save the alarm and the man was cap
tured without much trouble. He was
given a hearing before 'Squire Randall
and in dofault of bail was placed in the
county ja.il. On the following day Char
ley Anderson, while fishing in the river
below town, discovered a skiff loaded
with beef hides hid in the willows on
Duston island. He reported the find t
Deputy-Sheriff Sawyer, which termina
ted in the discovery of the fact that a lot
of hides belonging to the Hickory tan
nery had been stolen from a car on the
siding at that place some night the first of
the week. The foreman of the Hickory
tannery came here and positively iden
tified tho hides as having been stolen
from the firm he represents. It was soon
alter learned that this man Hawthorne
and Charles Russell, of this place, had
been trying to hire teams to haul a lot of
hides to Titusvdlo. Warrants were is
sued charging these two men with hav
ing stolen theso hides, and they were
both committed to jail lor trial at August
court. Mr. Kelly's wheel was found hid
in the weeds on "the river bank above
town.

An exchange prints tbe following curi
ous item : Tie a string about a yard long
to a common door key, then take the key
in the right hand and hold it so that the
string will cloar the floor four or five
inches. If you can hold the key steady
enough it will begin to swing back and
forth in a strait line. Let another person
take his loft hand in his, and the motion
of the key will change from the pendu
lum like swing to a circular swing. If
a third person will place his baud on tbe
shoulder of the second person, the key
will stop. Try it, and explain it it yoa
can.
The Pennsylvania division of the
League of American Wheelman offers a
reward of $25 for the arrest aad convic
tion of any person who steals the bicycle
of any member of the organization re
siding in tho State. Tbe division ffioials
have just been called upon to pay the
first reward under this offer. W. J. Ben
nett, of Wilkesbarre, secured tbe amount
he having captured the thief who stole a
wheel belonging to Dr. Gaist, of the same
city. As soon as it was known that the
wheel was stolen, and that the League
would pay a reward for the thief, Bennett
started to work with the above results,
and the consequence is that the owner
had his property restored without cost to
himself. This is another of the great ad
vantages of membership in the League,
and one that will be heartily appreciated
when a machine is stolon.
An exchange has discovered that peo
ple do not drink enough wator. It is
strange, says the paper, that the thing
that has made springs and other resorts
famous bs never been applied to every
day life. The invalids who visit those
places drink all the water they can hold
and think all the good results come from
some ol its properties. Sheer nonsense !
It is simply very poor water taken in
such quantities as to cleanse the whole
system and flood every organ. Be
side its cleansing properties water ab
sorbs etfoto matter and carries it through
the system, and tbe purer tbe water tbe
greater its power of absorption. Diseases
of tne kidneys yield to its power, and
liver and stomach troubles coase to exist
Even rheumatism, local heart trouble,
indigestion and the numerous other an
noying ills of tbe flesh due to impeded
circulation disappear before the restless
power of plenty of water.
