MR. EDITOR:—We are having lots of
sleighing just now. On Sunday evening
it began to snow very fast and continued
until in the night. About four inches
of"the beautiful" fell. The snow we
had last week was blown into the roads,
blocking travel until they were opened.
Some of the roads are yet impassable.
Very cold weather during the past week
has kept the sleighing in first-class con
dition. On Sunday morning the mer
cury fell to 10° its lowest point reached
during the season. The temperature nas
raised from zero to ten nearly all of last
week.
Mr. D. K. Hoy is very seriously ill.
He has l>een confined to his bed for
some time now.
Mrs. Samuel 11. Jarrett has been quite
sick for a couple of weeks and is in charge
of Dr. Muffley. Her husband is still
confined to his bed yet.
Considerable sickness is prevailing in
the neighborhood, in the shape of colds,
etc. It seems to be an epidemic.
S. N. Williamson, the butcher of Tur
botville. is sporting a new team of iron
greys, bought at a horse sale at Watson
town, a week or ten days ago.
The wind on Tuesday drifted the roads
again considerably. Last week the sup
ervisors had to open the roads running
east and west. Wherever the roads have
wire fences on both sides and no high
banks there was very little shoveling
necessary. Froui this fact it is argued
that it would pay the townships to furn
ish the necessary fencing to put up along
the main roads as the cost of opening the
roads ono or two years would be suffi
cient to do this and save l>oth money and
hard work.
It will soon be time to choose the men
who are to manage the affairs of our
township and boroughs. It behooves
every citizeu to see that the best
men are chosen for these places. It is
not every man who can be a good school
director or supervisor. These officers
come closer to the citizen than any others
for they have charge of our home affairs
and spend the money we pay in direct
taxes. It may be that every man elected
intends to do his best to discharge his
duties, but often he lacks the natural
ability to do so. It is unfortunate that
many of the best qualified absolutely
refuse to accept oflice at all, and it is
not strange either for when an officer
does his duty to get no thanks for it but
often undeserved blame.
The regular monthly meeting of the
teachers of the Limestone township
schools was held at Snyder's school,
Miss Nellie A. Fetherolf teacher on Mon
day evening. Quite an interest in these
meetings is evidenced by the attendance
of the patrons of the schools. This was
particularly in evidence at this one. The
house was crowded to its utmost limit
and many could not get in of the late
comers. The exercises consisted of resi
tations, songs and dialogues, by children
of Snyder's, Fairview, California, Boyer'Q
ftnd Hurley's splyx>lg. Thpy qll apquiUet}

TO ADOPT OPEN-AIR
CONSUMPTION CURE
Success Assured Project of Reading
Physicians to Establish a
Sanitarium.
Reading, I'a., Feb. (i.
A sanitarum for the treatment of
consumption is now assured for Read
ing. A charter has been received
from Harrisburg, incorporating the
Rending Sanitarium for the Treat
ment of Tuberculosis.
The consumptive cure plan has
been brought prominently liefore the
public by the Readiug Medical Asso
ciation, which has held a number of
open meetings to discuss ways and
means whereby persons ill with the
white plague or any other form of
tuberculosis might have proper care
and atteutiou. The discussion culmi
nated in a decision to establish an
out-of-door hospital somewhere on the
hills around Reading, where patients
may be given the benefit of a maxi
mum of fresh air and a minimum of
drugs, as is the custom at the White
Haven Sanitarium.
It is proposed at the start to possi
bly endow a few cots at the Reading
Hospitals, where patients may be
treated until the association has se
cured a sufficient footing to enable it
to erect a special building.
The project has been heartily en
dorsed by a number of Reading's
most prominent and influential citi
zens, who have lent their aid, person
ally and financially. Until the pro
per buildings have becu erected a
number of the physicians of the citv
have volunteered to give a portion of 1
their time to the attention of any of I
the society's patients, but when a J
special hospital has been erected a >
regular superintendent and medical
staff will be appointed.

SCHOOL BOY ENJOYS
RIGHTS OF A VOTER
Four Feet In Height and Clad In Knick
erbockers, He Caata Ballot.
Heading, Pa., Feb. •!.
This city boasts of having the only
voter iu the State who still wears
knee breeches and who is a schoolboy.
He is Michael Schneider.
Schneider is 21 years of age, and is
a son of John O. Schneider. At birth
he weighed only a few pounds. His
growth was stunted from the start,
and ho wore dresses until he was !)
years of age. Consequently he could
not be sent to school like other boys,
and his education was delayed.
He began togo to school at the age
of 11 years. Then he was scarcely
35 inches in height. To-day his
height is 4 feet 2J inches, and he
weighs only 85 pounds.
His pareuts are both strong and
hearty persons, and are unable to ac
count for their son's slow growth.
Michael is in the grammar grade at
school, and he stands well in his
class. His schoolmates range in ago
from 12 to 15 years. He is the small
est boy iu the room.
At the primary election held here a
short time ago Schneider's father
brought him to the polls and voted
him on age. The election officers
looked at him iu astonishment and
said: "No boys can vote hens."
Mr. Schneider swore to his sou's
age, aud he was allowed to cast his
bullot. The father was obliged to
lift his sou up to the booth to mark
his ticket.
Young Schneider is in the enjoy
ment of the best of health, and after
school hours romps about with his
playmates, enjoyiug himself as most
boys do. He detests long trousers.
As yet he has not been shaved.
Ilia great hobby is sketching, and
he expects to take a special course in
this branch as soon as his public
school days are over.
TRAVELLING FACILITIES.
"Ye Olden Time" va. "Up to Date."
Not many years ago a trip even as
tar as New York was quite an event,
long anticipated and arranged for
some time iu advance and a person
who had made several was viewed as
a great traveller.
The cars were low roofed, boxlike
arrangements, close and stuffy, with
stiff uncomfortable seats, and drawn
by slow eugines over a rough, un
even track, enabling you to tell the
miles travelled by bumps received,
and most travellers had a basket con
taining eatables, etc., to sustain them
on the journey.
Hut American Progressiveness
could not long endure this, continual
improvements ensued, until to-day,
loug journeys are made at nearly a
moment's notice aud wonderfully
different are the passengers' accomo
dations.
A striking example is the Reading
System's line between Reading Term
inal, Philadelphia, and Liberty Street,
New York, leaving either terminus
•'Every hour on the hour," from 7 a.
m.to 7p. m. weekdays, and at
frequent convenient intervals rest of
day.
Fine luxuriously furnished coaches
aud Pullmau Parlor Cars are drawu
by swift locomotives over a smooth,
double-tracked road, fully protected
by Automatic Signals, many trains
running entire distance in two hours
and the others not much longer. Cafe
Cars are attached to trains at appro*
priate hours, furnishing either lunch
or a regular meal at moderate rates.
At Philadelphia close connection is
made with well equipped, speedy
trains to and from the Coal and Lum
ber regions and other parts of Central
Pennsylvania.
A Progreaalve Farmer.
Mr. B. R." Fulton, of Cogswell, N.
D , is visiting his many old friends
and relatives in this county. Twenty
five years ago he bade farewell to his
old home in Limestone twp., this
county, aud directed his way west
ward. Now he is one of the pro
gressive tillers of soil in the far West.
Saturday this typical farmer, in his
manliness and elegant physeque,
stepped into see us and subscribe for
the favorite paper of his childhood.
He revealed to us some of the mar
velous strides in husbandry, and de
clared the West a great farming and
business district.
His first experience with the soil
there taught biu of necessary culti
vation. The wild condition made it
difficult to produce successful crops,
but now it is perfectly tame and the
result we have often read of.
Almost everything about the farm
is accomplished by machinery, and
one can only guess at the great pro
gress attained when he tells us that
with one of the improved riding plows
sixteen acres of land can be turned in
a day, or a very large load of hay cau
be put on a wagon every five or six
minutes. They even have machinery
to pick and plant potatoes.
This gentleman farmed two thous
and acres of land, with his necessary
help, of course, and did it succefcsfuN
ly, too, with the aid of modern mi
cbinery.
Montour county has gome good
farms and farmers, but we dare not
compare them with those of North
Dakota.
