WEDXESDAY. DEC EM HER II.
We are going to make it easier than ever be
fore for you to make all the Christmas presents
you care to by giving you better bargains than
you have been used to. The greatest problem
of the buyer is to make his money hold out
long enough to buy something for every one to
whom lie wishes to make a present. The great
est problem of the seller is to dispose of all
goods that are only seasonable during the Holi
days. The solution to both these problems is
the same LOW PRICES. We intend to
carry nothing over and on many articles have
made the cost price the selling price. On some
others the selling price is less than cost. On
nothing is there a big profit asked. Gome and
see what we have to offer in HOLIDAY BARGAINS.

The Greenville Record warns Its
readers against a silver polish agent, who
has made himself very obnoxious there
this week. His modus operandi is thus
described by the Record : "He rails on
the President of some Ladies' Aid So
ciety connected with a church and tries
to soil her keg or polish, to be bottled
and sold "for the benefit of the church"
at an immense profit. The President
either refuses, hesitates or accepts it Is
all tho same to him. In the Greenvillo
case the president did not indorse the
project, and the -fakir immediately calls
upon the secretary and tells her the pres
ident said I r she (tho aucrelary) was will
ing, the president was agreed to buy the
polish. The secretary refuses to enter
tho scheme and the polish man rails on
treasurer and delivers th- keg of alleged
polisL and demands the pay, sheds teara
and makes such threats that a tim Id wo
man might bo cajoled into paying for the
slull'. As easy fruit he is always ripe.

The Franklin News tells of two
hunters;?) who recently bagged in three
days .'I pheasants, 30 rabbits and 20squir

believe this record has been broken by
any two .. eu in the county during the
present hunting season.'' We should
hope not. If the report be true it is
doubtful whether two more such game
hogs could be found In any couuty iu the
Stale. If a legislature ia not aoon elected
in Pennsylvania with sufllcent intelli
gence and decency to stop that sort of
hoggishness, all game laws may as well
be wiped olT the statutes.
Th a Measuring Parly.
The ladies of the Relief Corps, as usual,
did themselves proud at the "measuring
party" given at the home of Mrs. Jennie
E. Aguew, treasurer of the State depart
ment, last Friday evening. Upward of a
hundred guests were present and enjoyed
the evening's festivities innnensily, e
sides those who were piesent in spirit
aud purse, many having sent the amount
of their "length" in the cute little bags
which accompanied the invitations.
Dominoes and other Innocent games
formed tl.e principal amusement of the
guests, while the "measuring up" of
couples for the tallest and shortest prizes
alforded no little merrimeiv. A feature
of the evening was the elegant spread set
out hy tho ladies, a thing that has become
proveibial with them. It was aurcly a
pleasure to have been there and help out
in this particular part of the program.
The proceeds of the evening, which go to
reimburso tho "infirmary fund" of the
Hrookville memorial home, amounted to
$10.
A number of letteis of regret character
istic of the authors were read, two of
which are appended, which will illustrate
the longing desire of absent friends to be
present on his occasion:

For which many thanks to your loyal

And during the evening pray once

In the midst of the fun which the parly
attends,
Give a passing thought to your Warren

We cannot hope either prize to win,
As we are neither tall nor short, but only

Important Laud Case.
The December term of the court of
com moil pleas convened at lOo'clock this
forenoon. A portion if the morning waa
devoted to going over the trial list and
shortly before noon the jury was ein
panueled iu the case of W. J. Knupp vs.
Frank Bernard and E. Piquignot. It ia
au ejectment proceeding anil the case
hinges on the boundry line between
Warren and Forest counties. The origi
nal survey waa made by Stale surveyors
in the yesr 1705 and at that tune a tract
of land bordering on Forest county waa
ceded to W. Bozer, the tract adjoining to
the north was ceded to Henry Bozer and
another still to the north came into pos
session of Jacob Courtnian. All border
on the Allegheny river on the W( at. The
case involves the title to about 100 acres
of land in tho Courtnian tract.
Ibe plaintitr will endeavor to show
that the original William Dozer tract runs
over the Forest county line for several
ro Is, and if this is true the property of
the plaintiff, which is conceded to be in
the Henry Boxer tract, will lap over on
th" property now in the possession of the
defendants, upon which are some valua
hie oil wells.
The Plaintiff came into possession nf
the property in the original Henry Bozer
tract by deed from the Falconer heirs, by
whom it was putchased at tax sale.
The case will be tried by eminent
counsel on either side. The interests of
the plaint id are being looked after by
Judge First of Bellefonle, and D. I. Ball
and J. W. Wiggiua of Warren, while the
defendant's attorneys are Perry D. Clark,
W. W. Wilbur and Hinckley A Rice.
The case will be largely determined
upon the testimony of surveyors. Messrs,
K. R. Wheeloek and L. S. Strong
hav been subpoenaed by the plaintiff
and for the defense F. F. Wbittekin of
Tionesta; Mr. Morgan, of Ridgway. and
Mr. Curtis ofTidioute, wil' testily.
I he case will doubtless cousuuie three
days, although it was materially short
