The Elooraficld Advocate speaks fans ;
In a section ol this county in which li
censed hotels are few and very far between
residents have stored atvay for winter uso
a beverage which if not taken cautiously
will intoxicate. In the preparation of this
beverage the innocent apple is largely
pressed into service. This in itself will not
readily intoxicate. Bnt here conies the
secret. Speak it softly. A gallon or two
of rye is boiled and poured into the barrel
of cider, and In some instances a little
whiskey or'alcohol added, as it may suit
the taste of the compounder. This mix
ture is then left to work out its own intox
icating powers Tlie beverage is not sold
but is kept on tap for visitors, whose calls
become Ircquent and neighbors whose cel
lars contain this drink have become more
neighborly. In a word, a veritable bard
cider campaign bss boeu inaugurated.

Letter from Kaataaa.
Toptsa, Kansas, January 2nd, 1887
Ma. Editor, One mora year has been pat
on the record, and to Kansas has been a
prosperous year, and bas been noted for
the great competition in railroads and rail
road building. A thousand miles of new
track has been laid and thore has been
nnusual activity in securing charters for
new roads. Two hundred companies have
taken out charters representing almost
$7,000,000. We have ten miles of street
railroad and a franchise has just been
granted to build a cble railroad ; we have
gas and electric light, water works and so
rortb with twenty-five miles of pipes. All
Eastern roads are trying first to occupy the
territory. The agent of tho Pennsylvania
Central has been here, with agents of other
great roads, It is a pnzzle to understand
why so many people go to Calilornia, nine
pull man coaches full is the aversge daily
trains through. John Boat and bride re
turned from California yesterday, after hav
ing visited Los Anglos, San Francisco and
so forth. We iu Topeka built in 1886,
fifteen hundred, and builders say, next
yesr, 1887, will surpass that figure. This
makes business good. I rent a store room
to a Iruit and candy man ; he tells me
Christmas week he s la six tons of mix
ed candies, ten barrels of gnm drops, sev
enteen thousand pounds of nuts and there
are many other stores that sell mixed can
dies. As an evidence of the finaiciat health
of Topeka, I will mention that ia . a talk
with F. G. Willard, I learned that their
deposits in the first national bank is almost
$700,! 00, being one of tbe eight bauks in
the city and seven trust and loan companies
beside land agents who loan money. Rail
road building still goes on. Abraham
Thompson sold his six hundred kegs of
powder last Thursday to one contractor
If the ground freezes too hard they blow it
loose. They are working on the third span
of the Rock Island railroad bridge across
the Kansas river. Piers, and iron ready to
be set np are hero, this makes nine rail
roads running in and out of Topeka. Come
out on some of these excursions and ran
down to old Mexico and see that curious
race and their old churches. In one of
their churches a picture has been left by
them. The picture is railed in. For the
railing around it 20 tons of silver bsve boen

perous New Year. Good Bye,

Recollection ofSchool Days.
Fortv vears ago. there were nine boys of
ns, whose ages ranged from nine to twelve
vr. as near as I can remember all attend
ing achr.nl together. The fcchool house
was about 13 by ISreet, built ol round logs
chunked aud daubed." The light was ad
mitted to this temple or learning through
small windows; an end win low, and a win
dow oo each side. Tbe ceiling was not
over six Teet six inches from the Boor. In
the middle of the floor there stood a big
stove with plates about one iac h thick with
the name of Wro. Dnnn. Franklin Furnace,
cast on its sides. When the first fire bad
burnt down, and the teacher bad drawn
out a pile of coals on the hearth we thought
we bad a comfortable place to study. Oc
casionally some ona would bring a load of
wood. When that wis burnt we supplied
ourselves from the nearest woods. Theie
was io school every second Saturday. If
the wood pile looked dilapidated on Friday
evening tb I -acher would say "3oys bring
-,., .t. in the iuomiac," then like the
Roman soldiers at the oeige at Jerosalem,

TTInter Toon over the Penn
sylTHiaia Railroad
Pursuant to tbe annual custom the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company placed on sale
at its offices Novenib -r 1st, a stock of win
ter excursion tickets to all the prominent
wit-tor resorts of New Jersey, Virginia,
Florida, other prominent points in tbe
Southern States, and to Havana. These
tte.eis are mrii rcilucott Twtcv, im cul.ki-'
eration of which tbey are required to be
used on the south-bound trip within 15
days from the date of purchase as stamped
on the back, and for tho return trip prior
to May 31st, 18S7. Stop off is permitted at
any point named on the ticket, and if tbe
tourist desires to break th journey at any
other point, lie should apply to the con
ductor of the train or pursnr of tbe boat,
who will pr.nt the permision by issuing
stop over check or notation on the ticket.
These tickets cover almost every South
ern poir.t to which winter travel tends, and
the variety of route afforded by tbo exten
sive Southern connections of tho Pennsyl
vania Railroad, commends its lines to the
favor of the traveler, to whom ease, com
fort and spend are material consideraiions.
Through bullet and sleeping cars run be
tween New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
and Washington, and Virginia and Florida
points, and the tourist to Cnba may make
the trip without interrupting bis journey
except at Tampa, where be exchanges the
car for the steamer.

The Printing Press says tho postal law
makes it larceny to lake a newspaper and
refuse to pay for it. A newspaper in Illi
nois recently brought suit against forty
three tuen who wou'd not pay their sub
scriitions, and obtained judgment in each
for the full amount ol tbe claim. Of these,
twenty-eight men made affidavit that thiy
owned no more property than the law al
lowed them, thus preventing attachments.
Then they, ntidcr the decision of the su
preme court, were arrested for petty lar
ceny, and bound over in the sum of $300
each. All but six gave bonds, while six
went to js.il.

Your Children
Are constantly exposed to danger from
Colds, Whooping Cough, Cronp, and
diseases peculiar to tho throat and
lungs. For such, ailments, Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral, promptly adminis
tered, afTorda speedy relief and cure.
As a remedy for Whoopim? Cough,
with which many of our children were
afflicted, wo used, during the past win
ter, with much, satisfaction, Ayer's
Cherry Tectoral. For this affection, wo
consider tbi preparation the most effi
cacious of all the medicines which havo
come to our knowledge- Mary Park

Wanderers, Doncaster, Md.
My children have been peculiarly snb
Joct to attacks of Croup, and I failed to
find any eifective remedy until I com
menced administering Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. This preparation relieves the
difficulty of breathing and invariably
cures the complaint. David G. Starki,
Chatham, Columbia Co., N. V.
I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
In my family for many years, and
have found it especially valuable in
Whooping Cough. This medicine allays
all irritation, prevents inflammation from
extending to tho lungs, and quickly sub
dues any tendency to Lung Complaint.
J. B. Wellington, PlainviUe, Mich.
I find no medicine so effective, for
Cronp nnd Whooping Conph, as Aver's
Cherry Pectoral. It saved the life cf my
little boy, only six months old, carryin
him safely through the worst case of
Whooping Cough I ever saw. Jaaa

One dollar a year in advance.
One dollar and fifty cents if not
paid within three weekp after
time of subscription.
Alter the children have learn
ed to read, the greatest educa

man should do justice to Ins
family by subscribing for a pub
lic journal.
Never in the history of news
papers has the subscription
price been so low. Subscribe

can, it gives nearly twice as
much reading as any one of the
other papers in Juniata Its re
ports of all important home
news and enterprises is full and
within the period ofa year its
variety of reading matter com
prehends within its scope al
most every topic.
You should not be without a
county paper if it cost you six
or seven dollars a year.
In this day and generation it
amounts almost to n wrong
to one's self and family to deny
themselves the advantage of
a good home paper. There are
more than a thousand and one
things during the passage of a
vear'that interest and some-
times directly benefit us, that
appear in the home paper but
like the rain, sunshine and air,
that we are so familiar with,
we do not appreciate as they
merit.
There are people who do not
take a home paper, but they
are not representative people.
To be sure this is a free coun
try and people can do as they
pleaee so long as they do not
trespass on the rights of their
neighbors, but the man who
does not take his county paper
is like the man who has a place
that he calls home when hi. de
sires are outside of its doors, his
home is a misnomer.
"It is all right, if you de
sire a city paper to subscribe
for one, or if you desire to have
one from a half dozen cities, it
is no one's business but your
own if you pay for them, but
first of all, subscribe for our
county paper and then look
abroad. j
After having subscribed for
the Sentinel and Reitblican
you are certain in your secure
ment of the county paper that
gives you a larger quantity and
greater variety of reading mat
ter than is presented by other
journals published ia Juniata
county.
As a medium for advertising
the Sentinel and Kepubucan is
number on.
Its job department is not as
complete as the job offices in
Philadelphia or New York no
more than its newspaper depart
ment is like the department of
a Philadelphia or New York
daily, but the job department is
ample and prices arc down to
city prices. We'll print you a
nice quarter sheet bill for one
dollar, a half sheet bill for one
dollar and a half, and a whole
sheet bill for three dollars.
Mention if to your neighbor
that they may do well to sub
scribe for the Sentinel and Re
publican, and send one dollar
in advance to pay for one year's
subscription, and when you
have job printing to do. or de
sire to advertise, cr desire to
have tale bills printed send in
