-There has been some apprehension as
to whether the street improvement in
tills borough under the "good roads"
could be carried out this season since the
Governor's out In the appropriation made
for that purpose, but a letter from the
highway department at Harrisburg stales
that Tionesta's case la all ready for the
signature of Joseph W. Hunter, Commis
sioner of Highways. It is not likely that
all the work designed for the borough
can be carried through this season, but a
good start will undoubtedly be made.
The borough school board at its
meeting last Wednesday, re-elected the
former corps of teacheru, as follows:
Priuclpal, J. Orr Carson; No. 4, C. F.
Feit; No. 3, Katherino Osgood; No. 2,
Bess Byers; No. 1, Blauche Pease. The

portion of the bone and a great deal of,
pus being removed. It was feared that
he might lose his foot, but late informa

-An advance in freight rates has been
announced to go into effect August 1st by
the Central Freight Association. This
has been expected for some time, Inas
much as everything else is on the steady
advance. Twenty years ago the capacity
of freight cars, measured .and estimated,
brought about a uniform freight rate.
Cars of the present age will hold nearly
twice as much as they did twenty years
ago. Lnmber, brick, cement, lead, paper
and plaster are among the principal com
modities affected by the proposed change.
In the new classification there are 3,2150
changes, of which 2.SK58 are advances.
The advances will average six per cent.
As if Irelght rates were not already high

Negotiations are as good as closed

diate introduction of the casket works
meutioned a fow weeks ago iu this paper,
aud will sot meu to work at once prepar
ing the buildiugs lor the introduction of
the necessary machinery. A number of
houses have been engaged for their lead
ing employes who will come on in a few
days, and it is expected the noxt week or
so will see- a complete transformation
about the premises that have so long laiu
idle. It will sound good to hear the big
whistle once more.
A number of physicians have started
a circular among their fellow physicians
that when fully signed will be presented
to the newspapers. By it the physicians
request that In the future the names of
the M. D.'s attending cases be not pub
lished iu connection with a case except it
be on the case of a physician. This action
is taken to conform to the "ethics" of the
profession, which do not .countenance
advertising. Henceforth patients must
be very careful not to tell their friends
who is attending tbem uuIgss permission
is first asked of the doctor, or there may
be a rupture of the ethics. In the future
medicos may secure blinders aud only
make their calls after nightfall to keep
from fracturing the fine points of medical
ethics. But ethics ia ethics. Oh, fudge.

"There were rumors afloat early In
the season that the shirt-waist suit would
not be In Its usual high favor with this
year's summer girl," writes Grace Mar
garet Gould In Woman's Homo Compan
ion for July. "Every one waa proclaim
ing the universal vogue of the jumper
dress.. Now, however, the tide la turn
ing, and the shirt-waist suit ia again as
serting Itself. And there Is no doubt that
it is smarter than ever. Of course, the
shirt-waist suit has bad to look to its
laurels, and perhaps that's why the new
deslgus are so original and extremely
attractive. All sorts of materials are
used, from the new voile In a woisted
suiting pattern to an inexpensive striped
gingham. Brown linen Is also In high
favor for a shirt-waist suit. Other ma
terials which are In vogue are figured
madras, pique, mercerl.ed rep, cotton
poplin, pongee and Btriped and checked
silks."
