6 NEWS OF CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA AND CITY'S SUBURBS DUNCANNON COUPLE MARRIED 64 YEARS AGO MR. AND MRS. JOHN OUASS Duncannon, Pa.. March 9.—Mr. and Mrs. John Glass yesterday eele r >rated their sixty-fourth year of wedded life. They were married iti 1847 at Boonesboro, Md. Three months later they moved to this place, where they have spent the entire 64 years. Mr. Glass is 84 and his life companion is 81. Mr. Glass has always been an ardent disciple of Isaac Walton. Despite his advancing years there are few good "fishing days" that don't find him somewhere along the Susquehanna or its branches. eH knows every pool where the wary bass and pike can be found and in the evening a good string usually proves that his long tramps have not been in vain. After German carp had been placed,ln the river Mr. Glass was tlio first man of the neighborhood to succeed in catching a specimen. Up to that time no one in the vicinity had seen a carp and the big follow was placed in a tub of water and people came for jniles to see the new sort of fish that has now become so common that he wouldn't think of carrying ono home. Mrs. George Holland, of Harrisb urg, and John Glass, of Marysvllle, arethe only children surviving from a f amily of nine. ; TECH BOY WITH BRITISH ARMY John Wachtman, Who Disap peared From Home Last Year, Heard From in France _ "i ani with the 0 British army in; .. France. This is the sunt and sub stance of the first bit of in formation that has come from John Wachtman, of West Fair view, who on May 8, 191. ran away from home because he said iie was "sick of hearing about being head of JOHN WACHTMAN my class.'' Since his departure, young Wacht man has not written to his parents, brothers or sisters. A close friend of his received the letter from him re cently, in which he asked that his whereabouts, which had been a mys tery since he left, be concealed. But it "leaked" out. • When he left, he had but little money and his parents, Mr: and Mrs. Henry Wachtman, believed he had none to Chicago to enlist in the navy. Instead friends of his say they believe he went direct to New York and worked his way across to France. He bad always been anxious for adven ture, Ills friends say. Before Ills departure the son rolled up the valedictory address which he was to have delivered on commence ment day at Technical High School and placed it with the following note beside a lamp at his home: "Good bye, I'm sick of all this raving about standing head of my class. Don't blame anybody but me for this. Don't worry. John." When he disappeared, Dr. Charles B. Fager, Jr., principal of Technical High School, and various students tojd of the young man's modesty and his dislike for compliments. Wacht man told several of his classmates that they should not be surprised if he was not on hand at commence ment, but they gave little heed to his remarks. During his last three years at Tech. Wachtman had lead his class in studies. He is now 20 years old. MRS. LEG A. ZIEfiLER DIBS Ellzabcthvillc, p a „ March 9.—Mrs. A.

The kidneys should receive some assistance when needed. We take less exercise, drink less water and often eat more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than nature intended. Evidence of kidney trouble, such as lame back, an noying bladder troubles, smarting or burning, brick-dust or sediment, sal low complexion, rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help Immediately to avoid more serious trouble. An Ideal herbal compound that has bad most remarkable success as a kid ney and bladder remedy is Dr. Kil mer's Hwamp-Root. There is nothing else like It.
