The coming of Spring ia associated la the minds of
most people with house-cleaning and the general renovat
ing that makes the immortal words of 1'ajne "There's
no place like uome" a hollow mockery and burlesque.
True, there ia no place like borne, at such times, and we
are very glad of iu But after order La come out of
chaos aud a man ceases to run the risk of death by lock
jaw from coming ia contact with the business end of a
lack while huuting the colio bottle io the dead of a dark
night, "There is no place like home" again mena some
thing to Immunity and raau decides that after all bouse
cleaning pays.
It is wonderful ivhat a lot of beauty can be gotten
out of a fowdollars worth of paint and paper propeny ap
plied. And it doesn't take many dollars' worth either,
when one can buy paper as low as Co centa a single bolt.
Good paper, too. We have as good a line of paper as can
beeeeu elsewhere iu Tionesta, perhaps belter, but we'll
let you judge for yourielf .8 to that.
A word about paint: Unlike wall paper, low-priced
paiut isn't cheap. In wall paper you get good value for
what you pay little or much, but there is only one kind
of paint that is cheap and that is the beat that can be
bought. John Lucas A Co. have been making paint for
a great many years. It may not be the only good paint
made but there is none better and you rre not ' taking
chances when you buy it, as you are in purchasing painta
made by comparatively new and obscure manufacturers.
It is the only brand we koep. Color catda can be bad
for the asking.

Ex.
Frank Zalinisor of the south ward
came very near loosing the sight of one
ot his eyes last Saturday. He and hia
brother wero playing about tho house
aud yard and the younger one had an
air gun. Frank was looking out of a
window and his brotlior pointed the gun
at him and told him to get bis head iu
tlio house or he would shoot him. and
then pulled the trigger, thinking of
course that Frank wonld dodge, but lie
didn't, and the shot struck bim on the
brow of the right eye. ' Dr. Bovard was
oalled to extract the shot and says that if
it had struck half an inch lower it would
have resul'.ei in tho' boy'a losing , the
sight of the eye and possibly more seri
ously. The first lequisition of ' tho. now
stinp books arrived at the local post
office yestorday afternoon and were at

book, to cover the cest of manufacture, or
25, 49 and 97 centa respectively. The
pages are of six stamps each, interleaved
with a paraffined paper to prevdut prema
ture adhesion, making a book of conven
ient size to carry in tho pocket or pocket

popular.
Producers of oil in Pennsylvania
fields will be exercised over the decision
just handed down by Justice White, of
the United States Supreme Court. This
opinion, in substance, denies the right of
an operator to drill wells lor oil on the
edge of a gas pioHm-lng territory when
through tbt procuring of oil the g is from
a neig bor's land is permitted to waste
in the air. In oilier words, tho right of a
State is maintained to compel the owner
ofa flowing well to shut it in if injury Is
incidentally done to another. This de
cision is a reversal ofa number of courts
upon the same question. But tho iutvr-
prelatiou of Justice White makes oil and
gas in a sense tiie common property of
the community; that the State has a
right to remilatn operations so t at an
owner shall not commit acts that are det
riments! to public interests.
