Make Your Hot Porch Cool Vudor Porch Shades make this possible ; they keep out the hot sun, but admit the cool, refreshing breeze. They give absolute privacy, for no one can look through them from the outside ; yet they are so constructed that from the inside you can see all that goes on without. They can be instantly raised or lowered, with very little effort. A practically indestructible device (operating on the principle of a theatre curtain) accomplishes this. They are light, but exceedingly durable, being constructed of thin strips of Linden wood fibre woven with the strongest seine twine. Vudor Shades are artistic in the extreme ; stained in soft colors that rest the eye and harmonize with any style of archi tecture. The colors are absolutely indelible and will neither fade nor crock off. Think of the many pleasant hours you can spend on your porch during the hot, Stirling days in summer if it is equipped with these shades. Fanned by every cooling breeze, seeing every passer-by yet secure against the burning rays of the summer sun and the inquisitive gaze of neighbor and stranger alike. SMART & SILBERBERG, OIL CITY. PA.

Tionesta, Pa. S. D. Irwin, Attorney. April 4, 1D00. 6t Y III II 1 I I I m THE VICTORIA CROSS. I-ord Roberts Was One of the First Men to Receive It. Fifty years ago Queen Victoria founded the famous Order of the Vlo trola Cross. The little bronr.e em blem hearing the words "For Valor" still remains the most famous naval and military decoration in the world. I'p to the present 620 sailors and soldiers. Including three civilians, noting for the time as combatants, havo received Queen Victoria's Cross. One of the first men to receive the decoration was Lord Roberts, of Kandahar, who saved a flag during the mutiny, forty-seven years ago. Lord Roberts Is the only man In the world who possesses two Victoria crosses. The second was won by his Ron In his heroic efforts to save the guns at Colenso during the Boer war. Lieutenant Roberts died of his nounds, and the cross he had won at the cost of death was given by the late Queen to Lord Roberts, who Is entitled to wear the reward of his son's bravery on his right breast. Some of the exploits which led to the reward of the cross "For Valor" are absolutely amazing. During a cnnipalgn'lt Is the ambition of every British officer and man to earn the Victoria Cross, and the reckless bravery displayed during the South African war led to a reprimand from hor.dquarters, many gallant men needlessly throwing nway their lives. The Shah of Persia In Russia. The Shah of Persia Is a man of moods and his visits are not always unmixed Joys at the courts he hon ors. On the occasion of his recent stnv In St. Petersburg his peculiari ties gave infinite trouble to the Rus sian court oflleials. One of his most -ring idlosyncrnties is his habit of OL-t.i.-ioinlly going to bed for twenty mo ir lio irs at a stretch. Riving strict orilcrs that he Is not to be disturbed under rain of death. More than once the days selected were those on wlilc'i special festivities had been ar ranged in his honor. As a matter of fart, his majesty, who Is devoted to c'llldren, preferred half an hour with tbr little grand duchesses to any ot'icr entertainment, and won the children's heart by letting them play iU his exquisite collection of dia monds and other precious stones, which Is said to be worth a king's ransom. London Tatler. Oirljjln of St. Maurice. St. Maurice in Switzerland is the name of a little station on the rail way that lends up the Rhone valley from the lake of Geneva. The place gets Its name as follows: Maurice was the oflleer, second In command of the Thebaic legion, when the Em peror Maximilian marched over the Alps In A. D. 302 to quell a rising In Gaul. At Octoi'urum (Martlgny) the legion, every man of which was a Christian, was ordered to sacrifice to the Roman gods for the success of the expedition. Headed by Maurice, they refused, marched off to Agaun um (St. Maurice), and there were twice declmuted to enforce submis sion. But they stlU refused, and fin ally the remainder were surround ed and cut down by the rest of the army. Curious Legal Custom. A curious custom is in vogue in many parts of India. If a dispute arises between two landowners two holes are dug close together, in each, of which defendants and plaintiff's lawyers have to place a leg. They have to remain thus until either one of them is exhausted or complains of being bitten by insects, when he la Judged to be defeated and hla em ployer loses his case. Dog Scavengers In France. The municipality of Nice, France, has organized a troop of dog scav engers for the cleaning of the sew ers. Some of the sewer pipes are too Rtv.ull to allow of the passage of men. The dogs have been trained to drag a cord with a brush at the end of it from one end of the pipe to another. The system is meeting with complete success. Yield of Cocoa Palm. The Cocoa pu'im, from which chocolate comes, bears its pods, which contain fifteen to twenty-five beans each, at ten to twelve feet from the ground. Four hundred trees are planted on an acre and each yields about one dollar's worth of beans. At the Ilnrgain Counter. A London periodical reports a "re grettable Incident. In a bargain counter rush a valuable ostrich feather became detached from a lady's hat and was sold as a remnant before the lady had discovered und could explain her loss. King Fdwnrd's Punctuality. King Edward, like his mother, Is always punctual to the second In his public engagements. If the pro gramme Is that he shall be at the Horse Guards at 1.48 and Victoria Gate at 1.53, he is there, for all to see, on time. The Itiblc In China. In China last year the British and Foreign Bible Society distributed more than 1,000.000 copies of the Scriptures. During the same period 350,000 books were given away among the soldiers and sailors of Russia laid Japan. Manufacturing Paper. But little paper has been recently made from rags; vegetable sub stances, such as wood, alfalfa and straw, are especially employed.

He Is an Unbroken Colt, Or a Genius; Take Your Choice. Now that Lord Cunon is no longer Viceroy the Indian press Is paying Its respects and dlsrepecta to him with great freedom. An ex-presldent of the National Congress says that Lord Curzon do- parted the shores of India "unwept uuhonored and unsung." Those who did him reverence wore his unqunlt fled pangyrl8ts, "the men who had blinded their eyes and stuffed their ears with cotton all the tlmo that there was going on a most unequal and deplorable struggle between the people, the educated classes speci ally, on the one side, and the tin bridled and irresponsible autocrat on the other." He then proceeds to characterize the ex-Viceroy as one utterly with out modesty, and blowing his own trumpet. "He carried about him," says the writer, "throughout his viceregal career the Impetuosity of the boy at Eton and all the insobriety and immaturity which accompany youth. The fact Is, he was an unbro ken colt. He conjured himsolf as an autocrat ruling a larger population than that of the Czar of All the Rus sins. He pictured himself as one who blended a Tiberius and Sultman tho Magnificent Into one." On the other hand, an equally de cided article in the Calcutta Review declares that "It would be hard to find another ruler who combines in himself all thoso qualities, mentnl and moral, which Lord Curzon brought to bear on the difficult task of governing a vast country like In dia, and that It Is no disrespect to Lord Mlnto to say that he does not possess the genius with which his predecessor was gifted." Phillips Brook's Silence. Bishop Brooks of Boston occasion ally used to surprise those not Intim ately acquainted with him by sitting silently while conversation was go ing on around him briskly. The bishop explained his rather unwont ed taciturnity by relating that on one occasion while seated in a railroad train opposite an intelligent-looking man the latter seemed about to say something. "I beg your pardon," said the bishop, "were you about to make a remark?" "No," was tho re ply. "Oh, I thought you looked as If you were going to say something to me," answered the bishop apologeti cally. "Yes, I am said to be very de ceptive that way. I used to say things and make remarks as soon as I thought them. I have often thought I had something to say and discov ered after I had said it that 1 ought to have kept silent." And the bishop would conclude his story by saying: "I have found myself In the same position more than once, so I do not speak until I am reasonably sure that I have something to say." Chi cago Chronicle. Why Hay Got Xo War Xews. In the summer of the commence ment of the Russo-Jnp war the late Secretary of State John Hay came to his summer home a. Lake Sunapeo for a few days' rest. Naturally, it was Important for him to have close, and constant communication wlAi the outside world, and arrangements had accordingly been made for tele grams to be sent up to him from the telegraph office. As the situation of the eastern af fairs became more tense and exciting Secretary Hay was expecting very Important communications, but none came. A day went by, and no word. The next morning a messenger war dispatched early to see If there was any message. "No," said the operator, "there If none." "But has none come?" he wa asked. ' "Well, one came yesterday, but there was no sense tt It, so I did not send it up." The message had come in cipher. Boston Herald. Dried Milk In Australia. Australia has adopted the system of drying milk, which originated in England. - The milk is dried between steam rollers and sold as a powder, from which nothing but water has been extracted, and to which noth ing but water requires to be added. A leading medical officer Is reported to have said that the adoption of dried milk at some of the asylums for consumptive patients and in gen eral hospitals has proved a success. Evading the Lions. A hundred natives employed on the Fort Hall road, who were re cently charged by six Hons, sought refuge In the water, where they re mained for more thin an hour, the Hons In the meantime resting quiet ly on their haunches near the bank of the river until the report of a re volver dispersed them, much to the relief of the frightened blacks.

Silks that so far as real value is con cerned should easily command tho regular price Not necessary to go iuto argument or detail with referouce to the why or wberofor of this sale.
