--The Uniontown Standard very sensi
bly says: "Advertisments announcing ths
date of the election of teachers in the dif
ferent townships, salary, length ol term,
Ac., will begin to be noticed in the news"
papers shortly. It will be well for School
Directors to bear in mind that the increas
ed State appropriation was not given in or
der to rednce the rate of taxation, as we
have understood some townships are go
ing to do, but for the purpose of making
the schools better by the employment of
the best teachers available and so compen
sating them for the work that they will be
encouraged to remain in the profession.
As it is, men of other professions and
trades who have employment all the year,
get a much better salary per day than the
school teacher who is employed but half
the year.

An interesting case, involving the legal
point as to whether a man could commit
burglary in his own house, recently came
before the Lebanon county Court of Oyer
and Terminer. The .defendant dwelt in
his own house and the prosecutor, who
was his uncle, boarded with him, occupy
ing'a separate room. The prisoner admit
ed stealing certain bonds and money 'fom
the room, and was willing to plead guilty
of larceny. The Commonwealth refused to
accept the plea, and Judge McPherson
charged the jury that the boarder's room
was his dwelling, upon which a burglary
could be committed, and that the defend
ant wonld be guilty, although the house
was his own.
The opinion haLded down by the su
preme court in the case of 1). N. Cornelius
againt-t J. T. Honfroy for damages for the
alienation of a wife's alTections, was re
ceived at the office of the supreme court
prothonotary in Pittsburg, Monday. The
case was tried in the lower court of Alle
gheny County, before Judge Stowe, and a
verdict of $2,000 for the plaintiff was given.
It was afterward reduced by the court to
SSOO. but Honfroy appealed. During the
trial, which was a sensational one, a scene
was created by Cornelius assaulting Hon
froy in the court room.
The supreme cotrft reverses the lower
court, and orders a new trial in the case.
The ground for this was the admission of
the husband's testimony, which tended to
incriminate his wife. She, it is asserted,
was not a defendant, but his testimony
tended to incriminate her, and he was an
incompetent witness. The principle of the
rule which excludes husband and wife from
testifying against each other requires its
application to all cases in which the inter
ests of the other party are involved. They
are only allowed to BO testify in cases of
personal injuries inflicted by the one upon
the other and in certain cases in divorce.

Why Sonio Women Grow Old.
A woman expends more vital en
ergy in baking one batch of bread
than she can regain by careful nurs

words, every baking of bread short

pay ? Why should women be old
and careworn before middle life?
Marvin's fine bread is just as good
and pure and sweet as the best house
wife can make. It's just as cheap
and it saves all the worry and both

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
A car load of live seals, shipped from
Alaska to Xew York, pasjied through Shar
on by the Wells. Fargo A Co. express.
The animals were in an ordinary box car,
the floor of which was kept covered with
large cakes of ice, while several barrels of
water stood abont the car. The strangers
didn't exactly understand the proceeding,
but snuggled down on their cake of ice .
tried to keep cool and did but very little
barking.
A good-looking, well-to-do and popular
young bachelor of Silverton was being
teased by the young ladies of a club tor
not gctticg married, lie said: "I'll marry
the girl of your clnb whom, on a secret
vote, you elect to be my wife." Each girl
went into a corner and used great caution
in preparing her ballot and disguised the
hand-writing. The result of the vote was
that there were nine votes cast, each girl
receiving one. The young man remains a
bacheleor, tho club i 3 broken up, and the
girls are all mortal enemies.
Some careless shooting in the woods
near Grove City, cansed caused the death
of little Bennie Denniston, a*few days ago,
Benny's mother found him lying dead in
the wood shed, a shot having penetrated
his jugular vein.
In Pittsburg, Monday, a drunken mili
tiaman on leave of absence stabbed an old
clerk with with his bayonet, and was jail
ed for his fun.
Somerset bad another general jail deliv
ery Monday afternoon.

J. Patterson A Co. started the pump at
their Xagel farm well, Saturday.
The Daintiest Lunch.
What the thermomoter at 100° or
so, what could be more delightful for
a noon-time luncheon than a glass of
cold milk and a few of Marvin's crisp,
fresh soda crackers ? That's what
the physicians would call a "hygien
ic luncheon." You'll grow fat on it
and forget that the weather is at the
boiling point. You can get Marvin's
crackers from your grocer.
