Notwithstanding the backwardness of
the season there is evidence that many
crops are goins to "catch up" pretty well
and are not going to yield bo poorly after
all. Wheat Is looking good, and oats will
be lair il not stricken with blight. The
potato crop never looked richer at this
season of the year, with apparently no
bugs in sight, somethiug out of tbe ordi
nary lor this section. Hay is still mak
ing, and what looked for a spell like a
failure now promises almost if not quite
an average yield. Corn is practically a
failure, and many fields have been sown
to buckwheat. Berries are promising
well and with sufficient moisture will
yield a good crop. The fruit crop will
not be large, although some apple or
chards are showing up nicely. So that
on the whole there'll be a plenty of the
necessities and some to spare perhaps,

Our farmers should be on the lookout
for fake Inspectors who are said by some
nevupapera of this state, to be at work in
some sections, pretending toexsminelive
stock, head by head, to ascertain if they
are In a sound physical condition. All of
the cattle thus examined are pronounced
sound, and then the inspector demands a
fee of twenty-five cents per head, or two
and a half dollars for the inspection of tbe
entire lot, Tbe men who are engaged in
this business are simply frauds and tbey
are without license to act In tbe capacity
of live stock Inspector, from municipal,

On July 3, 1907, at Atco, N. J., where
be bad liyed the last few years, John
Frlck died, aged about 75 years. Mr.
Frlck was a son-in-law of the late Col. P,
D. Thomas, of Tionesta, aud brother-in-law
of Mrs. S, D. Irwin. He Is survived
by his wife and several grandchildren.
He was of an old Chester couuty family.
He frequently visited Tionesta and was
well known to some of our citizens. He
was formerly agent of the Schuylkill
Navigation Co. at Philadelphia, and af
terwards engaged in various enterprises,
but of late years failing health prevented
him from pursuing his avocations.

melodious tones ring out as sweetly as
ever to those who are not compelled to
answer Its summons.
The reception tendered to Rev. and
Mrs. Harry A. Bailey at the Presbyter

one hundred friends who attended it the
greatest pleasure. Tbe guests of honor
were supported by the two elders of the
church, Messrs. G. W. Robinson and A.
B. Kelly, who occupied stations in tbe
receiving Hue and extended a cordial
welcome to each of the guests, who in
turn bad a word of encouragement and
good cheer for the popular parson and
his amiable wife. A number of choice
musical selections were rendered by tbe
young ladies of tbe Sabbath school and
Endeavor society, and light but very de
licious refreshments were served by tbe
latter society. At 10 o'clock the charm
ing occasion came to a close, the guests
departing with only the most pleasant
recollections of tbe evening's enjoyment.
Our old friend N. G. Cole, who owns

one day recently while working in bis

county citizen was again demonstrated a
short time ago in tbe gift of a valuable lot
to tbe Methodost church of Brookville
upon which to erect a new edifice, men
tion of which is made in tbe Republican
of that place of a recent date: "On Mon

coming as it does in tbe hour of greatest
need, that it will harmonize every

magnificent new ohurcb building is the
possibility of but a very few years."

Understand the philosophy ol keeping cool while "Old
Sol" is doing his best. About the only contentment
they find is to greet everyone with the words, "Isn't it
hot V If men only knew how much effect a disturbed
mind has over the body they would try to suggest more
pleasing propositions. The best thing to do is to clothe
yourself in lightweight garments, mostly light-colored,
and then engage your thoughts in some pleasing occupa
tion or study. Idleness is conducive to disturbance of
mind and a disturbed mind makes tbe possessor uncom
fortable. For the clothing part we can help you, for the men
tal part you must help yoursell both work harmoniously
together. Let us suggest that you come in and get one
of our Suits for $"20, that sold all season for $'25; Man
hattan Shirts at 1.50, $2 to 3, or lightweight Flannel
Shirts from $1.50 to 3.
