Something in tbe nature of a freak In

Scowden's place last week bp Elmer Pat

Bates run the past season. It is a piece
of birch sapling about 8 inches In diame
ter having a good sized limb about five
feet long which has both Its ends grown
into the trunk of the sapling completely
and symmetrically, making a loop or
handle to the larger piece. It Is quite a

The postmaster general has ruled
that mail matter intended for dalivery on

other than simply the number of tbe box.
Another ruling is that all rural carriers
have tbe right of way on all country roads
aud that all carriages and conveyances
must surreudor that right of way to the
rural carriers. Attention is again called
to the fact that the return address on all
letters and on all valuable packages
should be written on the upper left-hand
corner without fail.
A Meadville man who has made
gardening almost a science has discover
ed a new cabbage worm which he be
lieves Is going to cause trouble. The old,
familiar cabbage worm is green,' works
on the top of the leaf, and moves very
slowly. The new worm works on the
under side of the leaf. It is a sort of yel
lowish caterpillar, such as is frequently
found on trees, and can when necessary
move quickly. This apparently new
cabbage peBt will very quickly destroy
young plants, and can only be discovered
by looking for It on the under side of the
leaf.

The new state road above Tubbs run
is progressing fairly well these days.
About one-half the distance, or about
4,0(10 feet has received the first top-dress
ing of crushed limestone, and about half
of that, or between 2,000 and 3,000 feet, Is
practically completed. More than two
tlitrds of tbe whole distance has received
the Telford, or foundation work, which Is
the slowest part of the work. When this
lias all been laid the work of putting on
the top dressing is an easy task and much
greater progress can be made. However
it will be pretty well along toward fall be
fore the entire stretch is completed.

In these later years nearly every per
son has to have their summer trip, to
Cape May, Atlantic City, Saratoga, Wash
ington, New York, Chautauqua, Lilly
Dale, or some other "resort" says a
grumbling exchange. They think these
necessary to their health, and enjoyment
of life. We wonder sometimes, as we see
our neighbors going on and returning
from these trips, how our dear old fathers
and mothers got through life, many ot
whom never got outside the county, and
some of them scarcely outside tbe town
ship In which they lived. Our recollec
tion ot them is, that tbey were just as
happy as tbeir children and grandch lid ren
who go and come so often; and. we be
lieve they were much more contented.
People who work for themselves, es
pecially motbors, ofteu glory in not tak

in sticking solidly to what they believe
to be tbeir duty. To you, my conserva

as it Is to the tired teacher or the faithful
clerk; and for the same reason that you
may do more work when you do work,
and do it more effectively. The duty
which holds you will be better preformed,
the home that you are guarding will be
better kept, and the cheerfulness, and
courage, and optimism which you need
will be more readily summoned, if you

Beginning August 1 senders of postal
cards may use a portion of the front as
well as the back of the government cards
for writing messages thereon. Up to this
time this has not been permissable but
under a rulling of the postofllce depart
ment, In view of the faot that it was al
lowable to write on the front of private
picture postals, the authorities thought it
best to allow a part of tbe regular U. S.
cards to be used in a like manner. After
the (late mentioned the front of tho gov
ernment cards may be divided by draw
ing a line across tbe face about one-third
tbe space from the left of card, and that
portion to the left of the line may be used
for writing messages thereon as well as
on tbe back. The right band end of the
card will be for tbe address. New cards

A suit of great interest to tbe Macca
bees of Western Pennsylvania has just
been decided in the Supreme Court of
Michigan against the order and In lavor
of a Pittsburg member, Dr. St. C. Wine
land. Mr. Wiueiand brought suit some
years ago against the Supreme Tent of the
society to prevent the abolishment of old
age benefits and the establishment of new
and higher rates. Many of the members
in Western Pennsylvania objected stren
uously. The Pennsylvania defense com
mittee was organized to take action
against the order and the case was first
brought in the United States district
court. The delense committee, working
in the name of Mr. Wineland, bas been
repeatedly beaten, but has finally won In
the Michigan supreme court, the state
where tbe society is incorporated. Tbe
decision covers forty pages, and bas not
been made public in full, but it is ex
pected to be final unless the Supreme
Tent decides upon an appeal to the L nited
h tater, Supreme Court.

Old friends In this community will be
saddened to learn of the sudden death of

His death from acute Bright's disease

Pretty Wedding; at Clarington.
From the Brookville Republican of
last week we take the following account
of a pretty home wedding at Clariugton,
this county:
"Tbe home of Mr. and Mrs. John
Campbell, of Clarlngton, Pa., was tbe
scene of a pretty wedding Wednesday,
July loth, at high noon, when tbeir

united in marriage to Rev. U. David
Reiter, of Allegheny, Pa. Only a few
near relatives and friends were present
to witness the ceremony which united
these hearts in the bonds of holy wed
lock. Tbe marriage was solemnized by
Rev. J. I. Humbert, of theSigel Presby
terian church. Tbe ring ceremony was
used. Tbe bride was beautifully gowned
in white aeolian and carried white roses,
while Miss Anna FlUbart acted as brides
maid and carried pink carnations. Tbe
groom was attended by Mr. Robert
Campbell, brother of the bride, and was
dressed in the conventional black. Tbe
wedding march was played by Miss
Nettie Campbell, of Clarion. After tbe
ceremony and hearty congratulations a
wedding luncheon was served. The
bride and groom were tbe recipients of a
number of beautiful, expensive and use
ful presents. Under a shower of rice the
bridal partv entered their carriage at
3:00 p. m., to leave Brookville on the east
bound train for an extended trip to
Washington, Harrisburg, Jamestown and
Philadelphia. Rev. Reiter was formerly

paratory to entering the work of tbe
Christian ministry. After graduating at

He is now pastor of West View Presby
