W. Cook, tbe well known lumberman of this place, and his son, A, Wayne, Jr., had been drowned in an ao cident in Washington state.

Pierce, a prominent citizen of North East, Erie oounty, died on the Kith inst. and Was buried on the 19tb. ' Mr, Pierce will be kindly remembered by many torest county people, having re sided at old Braceville, in Hickory town' ship, when that thriving lumbering town was in its palmy days.

When sighted It was Bunning itself along the edge of the sidewalk, and a number of barelooted children were playing in the vicinity. Warren Times. Go . slow, Charlie. Mind, you never saw many snakes when you lived here. A law now on the statutes prohibits the sbootiug of any except a male deer with horns that can plainly be Been. A doe, fawn, or spike buck cannot be killed, but only those bucks whose horns are developed and which can plainly be seen by tbe hunter. The object of this is not only to protect the game, but to protect the hunter. The statistics show that hun dreds of men are killed by careless hun ters who see a bush waving or a move ment in the underbrush aud blaze away at it only to furnish a subject for the coroner. State Game Commissioner Kalbfus was instrumental In having tbe new law passed, aud says that there will be very few accidental killings in Penn sylvania hereafter if the huulers obey tbe law, and hold back their fire until they are certain the target is a male deer with horns. The striped, snorting two-mlle-a- minute, life-risking automobiles have been aptly designated as a freakish futil ity. They are a public nuisance, and their maniac drivers have incurred the enmity of farmers, and all others who drive horses and have been compelled to take to the woods when the racing benzine-tank comes in sight, says tbe Oil City Blizzard. And these are positive facts. Unless more rationality Is displayed in the running of these death dealing devils the people will finally take the law in their own hands, and tbere will be something doing besides recklessly fright ening horses, causing runaways that re sult In smashing vehicles and maiming and often killing their occupants. More sense and decency must be exercised or sooner or later there will be internal warfare. Although an old cake-maker, I have just learned how (o test cakes, so they will not fall or be sticky. When you think the cake is done, remove from oven bold to your ear, add if it "sings" loud put it brck where you had it; if it "sings" very faintly, put in cooler part of oven, or if oven Is vory hot, leave the door un latched or slightly open. When it does not sing at all, you could drop it and it would be all right, provided it was made correctly. I turn mine out of tin as soon as removed from the oven, either on tbe molding-board or ou tbe bottom of a clean tin. Tben you can pick up pan, cake and all and carry a tender cake where you want It without danger of breaking. If It sticks to the tin, run a sharp knile under it close to the pan, tben place on plate or other layer of cake. Tbe Ladies' World for August.
