SCOTT AMMERMAN OF DANVILLE, VX. Subject to the rules of the Democratic county convention. THIS IS NEIGHBORLY? IIEKE are more ways of doing CJi your neighbor a good turn than throwing your rubbish in his back yard. .If you have any patronage that might give him a little profit, give it to some one you don't know so well or be sure to not favor him when the opportunity presents itself. If you do a little job for your merchant, ask him for ill■; money at its completion, and then go lo a merchant dealing in similiar goods, and spend your money. Iron men, gas men, stove men, dry goods men, merchants and dealers of all kinds, the way for uou to support your best friend, the newspaper, is to turn all your work to jobbers and dealers outside of your home town or to givo it to some little concern that can do you no good and whom you are also helping to get rich by paying starvation wages. Do you ever think of your unselfish actions, and sneak into some secluded place to kick yourself because you didn't do tlie.-e things? We guess not. You glory in your manliness. Ho, keep up. 'LEISURE CLASS.'' rrJU IIS. CLARENCE BURNS, a New York writer, goes for the smart set of that cil v and else where by condemning and branding them as the "leisure class." She says: "Idleness develops 'cattish' women; work makes them sweet-tempered. "In the woman who has nothing to do, the so-called 'leisure class' there is a 'yellow streak,' which as soon as it is disclosed, drives men away from them. "I can'l imagine how women are happy without something to work for. Every woman ought to be the mother of a family. That's the heaven in a woman's life. The foolish woman takes the lap dog. "In every one's circle there are at least a dozen women tabbies who sit at home twirling their thumbs, eating their hearts out with jealousies ami adding calumny to their mutual ac quaintances' blameless lives." — CANDIDATES are slow to come forth in Montour County. We notice in our various exchanges that an nouncements for full tickets are ap pearing in the surrounding counties. Why this hesitancy is manifested by our politicians we cannot say, but are sure the various offices will not go seeking the man, for a number for each office are having their names circulated. The way politics look now we can promise a pretty interest ing campaign this summer and fall. It is quite likely there will be several annouiic;' for each of the various offices, though none have done so yet, and our Republican friends propose to do their worst. The one great reason that causes Gov. Pennvpacker fo withhold the appointment forjudge in this judicial district, is that he is look ing for a strong Republican who will promise to fight real hard for election next fall, and thus help their cause. Be this as it may, if we have a num ber to select from for each office, we can then nominate good men and elect good men. — HON. (I HAN'T HEKIUNG, of Bloomsburg, is the tirst to open up the campaign in this county by hav ing his announcement for President Judge appear iu this issue of the In telligencer. Many assert that this office is ilue to Montour county, but it very unlikely that any candidate will care to enter the fight nt this time. Mr. Herring is known through out the judicial district, having serv ed, by appointment, this particular elevated position he now seeks the nomination for. Hon. R. Scott Am merman also falls into line and orders his name to be announced for the office of Member of the Legislature. Mr Ainniernian is too well known for us to attempt to introduce him at this time, as his faithful and able ser vice in the office he seeks to be re elected to, stands out as a monument al spectre to his own future good. —Wi: read of a very resourceful and practical school teacher in l'hil'a, who is determined to lie prepared for all emergen!: She keeps always at hand a supply of "First Aids to the Injured." liruises and cuts from too vigorous foot-balling or 100 close con tact with pen-knives have terrors for her no longer, for she keeps conven ient a medicine chest, which contains liniments, antiseptics am! bandages, and after tie needed minor surgical operations have been performed the recitation of the multiplication tables and the spelling hi es goon as merrily as if no accid- nt had occurred.

He has named one for the nomination thatwould fill the bill. I refer to Scott Amuierman. Now I think he would make a very good judge. lie has tlie ability—being learned in the law, and his experience as Attorney General of Montour county will be very much in his favor. Beside having been a law-maker would enable him to construe the law. And another strong point in his favor is the fact that Montour county has not had a judge for a long time, except by appointment, to fiill an un expired term, in the person of Judge Hinckley. Columbia county has no right to ask for the office at this time as she has been furnishing the judges for this judicial district from time immemorial. I think that "Seottie" j would make an ideal judge and I believe Johnnie would be quite pleaded to see him elected. Of course Jerry would be, becau-e lie is such a strong de fender of "Skote's." It seems so funny to hear Johnnie complain that "Antony" township is always left out in the cold in the matter of offices ' then go away off to Liberty township for a candidate for member when he has just as good at home in Hon. L. W. Welliver. Now Johnnie don't you think you ought to be consistent and support home talent ? Vanzaut may be all right. I don't kuow anything about him but Jerrey's eulogy might j eulighlcd us very much. I will stick to Welliver, however. Under the combined influences of fog, rain and sun the snow is rapid-' Iv disappearing. Travel is done under difficulties. Where the drifts were j it is hard to get through with wagons, especially with loads, and sleds are no good. The mud will be plenty when the snow has all gone, which will only add to the joys of travel. Jerry Smith and his wife, of Waterloo, New York, are visiting their parents.

Whitehead With an impatient gesture Mr. Sam uel Lay ton laid down his evening pa per. "Hang It all, Fred and his wife are going away again! This is the third annual disappearance they have made, leaving towu in the spring and not returning until fall. Where in cre ation do they go? Fred must make money somehow; he never asks me for u cent and lives like a nubob during the winter. It's too much for me." Mr. Layton frowned heavily as be concluded his soliloquy. His keen mind and indomitable will had enabled him to solve the difficult problems of life and had raised him from the plane of poverty to that of great wealth. Not withstanding his shrewdness, however, he had not been able to fathom the se cret of his son's ways and means. Fred Layton had finished his college course and gained renown on the grid iron and in other athletic sports, but he had failed utterly in his studies and had announced his Intention of marry ing Miss Edna Morris, a pretty girl, but decidedly poor. But Mr. Layton had planned that his son should wed the duughter of his partner, Miss Mattle Walton, and thus succeed to great wealth and the entire control of an established business. This difference of opinion between fa ther and son led to a stormy Inter view, during which Mr. Layton de clared that If Fred married Miss Mor ris the parentul purse would be closed against him forever. With a shrug of his broad shoulders, the young man had intimated that he could take care of himself and did not propose to ask liis father for financial aid. A month later the young people were quietly married. They established them selves in a cozy little flat in a fash ionable neighborhood. They lived well, dressed well, entertained their friends and to all appearances were prosper ous. Mr. Layton naturally thought this condition of affairs could not last, and he smiled grimly as he thought of the conditions he would make when his sou came to him for aid. As the "I WOULD LIKE TO'*— MR. LAYTON STOPPED SUDDENLY. months passed by without such an ap peal the old gentleman grew more and more mystified. lie made many inquiries as to his son's source of revenue, but only dis covered that when Fred and his wife returned from their summer outing they brought back a snug sum in cash with them. Mr. Lay ton scanned the papers diligently to find out where they went, he inquired at the postofllce for their summer address and even tele phoned to the owuer of the flat, but no knowledge could be gnlned. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Layton disappeared as com pletely for t\ time as If the earth had swallowed them. The father grew restless and nerv ous, his digestion became impaired and he went from place to place upon the plea of regaining his health, but In reality In the hope of solving the mys tery about his son. All in vain. "I enn't stand this any longer, doc tor," declared Mr. Layton one day when his physician called. "I must find out where Fred goes and what he does. I suppose it is mere curiosity, but I must fathom the boy's secret. I've been used to solving problems and can't endure failure." "I'm sorry I can't help you, Mr. Lay ton," replied Dr. Brooks, "but If you don't stop this roving about from place to place, eating all sorts of food, you'll be dead in another year. (Jo up to the Mont Alta House, In the Alleghenles and stu3* a mouth. I was there last year, and the table was excellent aud the air and water are life giving." "The Mont Alta," repeated Mr. Lay ton. "I've heard of the place, but It didn't amount to much a few years ago." "It's under a new manngement uow," returned the doctor, "and Is a strictly first class house." The Mont Alta House was even more than Dr. Brooks had said. The table was so excellent and agreed with Mr. Layton so well that he became robust again. Upon one thing he resolved, end that wns to necure the chef of the L use if that person could be had for li jney. Accordingly lie sent for the c ef.

There are pretty big mosquitoes in the world, but if report be true they have greatly degenerated In size and strength since the days when this leg end was believed by many tribes of Indians. The grandfather of all mosquitoes lived in the neighborhood of Onondaga, N. Y. When he grew hungry he would sally forth and eat an Indian or two and pick his teeth with their ribs. The Indians had no arms that would pre- ' vail against this monster, so they call- I ed upon the holder of heavens to come ' down. Finding that he had met his match in this person, the mosquito flew away. He flew around the groat lake, turned eastward, sought help from the witches that inhabited the Green lake and had reached Lake Onondaga when his pursuer came up and killed him. As his blood poured forth on the saud each drop became a smaller mos quito. They gathered about the hold- 1 er of the heavens and stung him so cruelly that he half repented the serv- I Ice he had rendered to the Indians. The Tuscaroras say that two of the mosquitoes stood on opposite sides of the Seneca river and slew all who passed. Hiawatha killed them. A res ervation stone marks the place where the holder rested during his chase, and ■ tracks were until lately seen south of | Syracuse alternated with the footprints ; of the mosquito. These footprints were shaped like those of a bird and were twenty Inches long. These marks were revered by the Indians for many years. —Brooklyn Eagle. A WONDERFUL PROOF. I'hc Biirnloff UIUNM I*M n Demonstra tor of the SUII'N Heat. "The sun's heat is so great"— But au Intelligent young woman in terrupted the scientist impatiently. "After all," she said, "it is guesswork, this talk about the excessive heat of the sun. You can't prove any of your claims.'' He was disgusted. "I can't V"he cried. "Why, it Is the easie<t thing in the world to prove that the sun is hot enough to melt Iron, granite, the hardest substances known, Into liquid, Into steam." "How would you make such a proof?" she asked incredulously. "With the burning glass," said he. "A burning glass Is slightly rounded. Thus it bends Into a focus—it concen trates upon one small point—a number of sun rays. The tiniest burning glass, catching only a few rays, will light a fire, set off a gun or bore a red hole in your hand." "Yes." "The solar heat which the burning j glass collects for us is *he tiniest frac- j tlon of the sun's actual heat. We can j prove this by focusing with our glass | rays from a powerful lamp or a great fire. We get a small, bright spot, a lit tle heat, but this heat is nothing to ! compare with the heat of the lamp It- I self. "So. knowing, now, that the solar heat which the burning glass gives to i us Is but a fraction of the heat of the ! sun, wo take a burning glass a yard In j diameter—such glasses have been made j for the sole purpose of convincing skep tical persons like yourself—and this glass concentrates many hundreds of sun rays for us. and it gives us a heat greater than we can obtain in any fur nace, a heat that will molt rock into vapor."

If it la, indigestion naturally ensues: the kidneyi become clomped with impurities that impair or stop their secretory functions; the blood is vitiated and actually poisons the whole b*ing. Let this goon to its natural ending and the sure result is—death. The one medicine that will arrest this fatal progress la Dr. D. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy which stimulates and strengthens tho digestive orpins, restores tho st-cretory functions and hp-ed ily casts out the gathered impurities in t lie organs affected. If you have bad breath, sluggish bowels, pain in the back,discolored skin, nervousness or diz ziness, you may be certain that your vital organs are sadly out of condition and that Your Only Wise Course is a medicine that will cleanse your sy«tem of the impurities that clog life channels and restore vigor and health. Medical science proves that diseas s, no matter how great a variety, seem to nroceed from compare! ively few causes. 11 is for this reason that some single metlicines relieve or cure so wide a range of complaints. When a medical preparation acts at once upon the digestive and urinary organs and also Purifies the Blood the list of difficulties subject to ita control is aston ishing. It is couced-d that Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is tho most effec.lve preparation now in uso for all diseases arising from a foul or im pure state of tho circulation.

Aiß i t!?*V«?* M h, O II & area Nervoos When 3 - ou feel languid, tired, nervous and irritable, your vi tality is low—your supply of nerve energy exhausted, and your system running down for lack of power, The organs of the body are working poorly, or not at all, and you are not getting the nourishment needed. This soon impoverishes the blood and in stead of throwing off the im purities, distributes it all through the body. This brings disease and misery. Feed the nerves with Dr. Miles' Nervine, a nerve food, a nerve medicine, that nourishes and strengthens the nerves, and see how quickly you will get strong and vigorous. "My wife suffered with nervousness previous to a recent attack of typhoid fever, but after her recovery from the fever, she was much worse, and could hardly control herself being exceed ingly nervous when the least excited. She was very restless at night, and never had a good night's rest. Sh-> also suffered much from nervous head ache. Dr. Miles' Nervine was recom mended by a friend. After the first three doses she had a good nlght'a rest, and at the end of the first week's treatment she was wonderfully Im proved. Continued use of Nervine had completed her entire cure."
