It is lucky that the striko in the meat
trades comes at a season when vegetables
are plentiful and when most pbyslciaiiB
recommend a diminished consumption
of meat. It is a fact that huudreds of
millions ol people in the far east live
without tasting meat at all, and yot com
pare favorably with the meat-eating
westerners in vigor and capacity for la
bor. Tho Japs, lor example, live large
ly on rice and other vegetable matter and
get little or no meat. They eat dried flub,
but would be better off without it. Forc
ed abstinence from part of their meat
rations will do no harm to a large class
of people. The harm caused by the arrest
of the supply of meat is substantial iu
that it raises unduly the price to the la
boring man, who feels that he needs meat
in order to porlorm his full task.
On a recent night a carnival aggrega

Le introduced for the delectation of meu
only. And "men only" soon filled the
canvas tent, each patron paying 25 cents
admission. At the time appointed a
dancer appeared and attempted to give
the whirling muscle dance of the im
modest East, but the fact immediately
dawned upon the villagers that a boax
had been perpetrated, says the Bradford
lira. Too dancer, instead of being a
dreamy eyed, athletic Caucasian girl, was
an angular ugly mau in disguise. Then
the row began. -The management sought
safety in (light and succeeded in reaching
the limber. The audience tore down the
tent, at a late hour, and alter much ex
cited comment, departed Irom tho scene,
siuldor and perhaps wiser. In addition
to its other unpleasant features, tho atlair
has become a local scandal and several
indignant but respe itahlo wives have
suspicions that are uot at all comtorting
to their husbands.

Death of Mrs. S. II. Haslet.
It was with the most profound sorrow
that our citizens learned of tho death o
this good woman which occurred at
Jacksonville, Florida July 24, 1001. But
fow bad learned of her Illness, which was
very brief, and when the mossage came
to Tionesta fricnds.Sabbatb evening, that
she had "gone homo," it fell like a pall
over our peoplo, for "Auntie" Haslet was
one whom everybody loved. It d'd not
seem possible that she, whom we expect
ed so soon to welcome back to her Tio
nesta home, would be with us no more.
But tbe stern messsgo could not be
doubted, and the truth took hold upon
us that the earthly tabernacle had been
dissolved and the spirit we loved was
now dwelling lu "an bouse not made
with hands, eternal iu the heavens."

were well improved, and later she became
the wilo of Caleb L. Gould, of Scarbor

II. Fox, of Jacksonville, Fla., and Miss
Haltie Gould, of Oil City, Pa., are still
living. An adopted daughter, Mrs. Clara
Collin Haslet, of Tionesta, is also living,
and what seems so sad is that neither
Mrs. Haslet, whom she loved as an only
daughter, nor Miss lla'tio, who is now
in Europe, could be with her as she
passed away, or do for her any little act
of kindness at the last, wbicb is always a
comfort for friends to remember.

ten years Tionesta has been her home
and her good qualities of heart and mind
greatly endeared her to our citizens. In
early life sho became a member of tbe
Baptist church and of her it may well b.i
said, "Faithful unto death." Mis. Haslet
W8s always interested iu reforms and did
all iu her power to better the condition ot
the unfortunate For many years she
was an active member of the W. C. T. V.
and was County Superintendent of Sol
dier's and Sailor's Work. She was also
interested in the cause of Home and For
cigh Missions and was ever ready to lend
a helping hand.
Mrs. Haslet horo tho happy distinction
ol being a leiiial descendent of Colontl
and Honorable William Pepperrell and
Margery Bray Pepperrell, and wan a
member of the Pepperrell Association or
Kittery Point, Maine. This celebrated
ancestor was Sir William Pepperrell, who
was Governor of Massachusetts from 1750
10 1758, and who was knighted alter a
successful expedition against Lewisburg
in 17 5.
Suddenly, it seems, this beautiful life
is ended. Alter nuly a fow hour's serious
illness, she passed beyond our horizon to
tho beau iful unsoon realm for which her
life so well lifted her to enter upon, and
she has thus been permitted to look upon
tho unveiled splendor "of tho Now Jeru
salem." Though her body may rest iu
the far southland, yet her spirit is freo,
and she still lives iu the hearts and lives
of tho many who are left.

Mothers should always keep in good
bodily I ealth. They owe it lo their
children. Yet it is no unusual sight to
see a mother, with babe In arms, cough
ing violently and exhibiting all the symp
toms of a consumptive tendency. And
why should this dangerous condition ex
ist, dauiteruus alike to mother and child,
when Dr.Hnschei 's Gorman Syrup would
put a stop lo it at once? No mother
should be without this old and tried rem
edy in tbe house- lor its timely use will
promptly euro any lung, lb rout or bron
chial trouble in herself or her children.
Tho worst cough or cold can ho speedily
