CLOSES GOOD SEASON
Liverpool, Pa., Oct 20. —layer-
pool's baseball team has just closed
a very successful season. Treasurer
George E. Decltard announces that
. all expenses have been emt. The
] balance in tlje treasury will be ex
! pended for uniforms for next season,
i E. C. Mengle, manager, entertained
I the team and officer.* at an oyster
supper.
"Casearets" never gripe, sicken or
keep you anxious all next day like
Calomel, Salts, Oil or violent Pills.
"Oascarets" are the most delight
ful laxative-cathartic you ever ex
perienced.
Switch to "Casearets"—cost so
little!
And best of all this remedy costs
almost nothing. Get a one ounce
| bottle of Menthollzed Arclne at any
| drug store, pour the contents into
: a pint bottle and fill the pint bot-
I tie with water that has been boiled.
Then gargle as directed and twice
i daily snuff or spray each nostril
thoroughly.
That's all there is to it; so simple
that a lot of people will say that it
; can't do the work; hut oftentimes
simple natural remedies are the best
us you will find after using.
If you will make up a pint and
use it for a week or ten days you
need not be surprised if your unwel
come yearly visitor fails to appear.
Lower mill has been bought by New
England manufacturers and here,
too, needed improvements have been
made. The plant will have its own
water supply, artesian wells having
been bored. New machinery and
improved buildingß will make the
place practically new. The com
pany expected to start this mill run
ning to-day.
The reopening of the mills means
a big thing to Mount Holly Springs.
For many years the Government
used tons of "Holly" paper and the
product had a reputation all over
the country. It is believed both
mills will give employment to 200
people or more.

normal composure in a little while

While the family was at the evening
meal she repaired to the front of
the house, where, with a pair of

made called the attention of the

GETS BASS THAT
CHASES MINNOW
Angler Along Cre?k Captures
Fish That Jumps Into
Basket Angler
New Bloomfleld, Pa.. Oct 20.
Hank Oryin, who lives close to
GrofTs woods, a half dozen miles
from the Perry county seat in his
bachelor quarters, came to town on
Saturday and told a tale of how a
fisherman captured a ihree-pound
bass In Buffalo creek without rod
or line. The fisherman, Orvln says,
was seated on the bank watching
his line. All at once there was a
commotion In the water. The angler
thought a large fish had swallowed
hook and bait and prepared for a
struggle.
As he was getting ready to haul
in his prize he saw a bass jump out
of the water and Into his basket
which was on the bank. He lost
no time in securing the fish which
was a beauty. It had pursued an
active minnow to the water's edge.
Its momentum was so great that
when it made a final grab for the
minnow it landed on the bank close
to the fisherman.
The minnow was found in the bass'
belly when the fisherman cut it open.
Orvin vouches for the truth of the
story, but withholds the fisherman's
name.

County Agricultural Society fur

caused much laughter. Her antics
are told of thus: Jennie, owned by
H. V. Rice, of near Newport, and
ridden by Clarence Patton, always
came in last. It was Jennie who
furnished the amusement in the
mule race. In the first heat she
picked out the highest bunk along
the track. For a little diversion she
made the ascent. Patton succeeded
in getting her in the track again
and all was well until she came to a
newly-plowed field where a tractor
had been operating. Jennie thought
this was her job and she stopped
so suddenly tha-t Patton was thrown
over her head and landed on his
feet, unhurt. Jennie was not used
to traveling alone and when she
came to the open fence where she
entered the track she refused to con
tinue the race and in each of the
two heats had to be accompanied
under the wire.
