Girls that whistle, and hens that crow,

Tbe whistling maid and crowing hen

So they quarreled and tbey fit,
Tbey scratched and they bit,
Till, except their toe-nails,
And the tips of their tails,
Instead of two cat* there wasn't any.

of rotten timber when it boanoed Terrence
Y. Powderly.

attend school who has not been vaccinated

There is a sentiment growing in Alle
gheny county that the position of a public
hangman be created in this Commonwealth
and it is possible a bill will be piesented
to the next legislature asking that this be
done. It is certainly a very serious duty
for the sheriff of a county to carry out the
sentence! of the court and lanncb murder
ers into eternity. M>>st men have not the
nerve to do it. The creation of this posi
tion woald be a proper thing
In the suit of T. S. Mitchell in the Alle
ebeng Co. Court against Mrs Caroline
Richmond to recover on a note given to
pay a premium on her husband's life in

the plaintiff. The defense was that a
married woman was not liable for such an
obligation, bat the court held that she
was.
The last Legislature of Pennsylvania

period not exceediag 12 years; and tor a
secoad offense for a period of his natural
life. Under the act approved by the Gov
ernor on April 14. 1893, the term of im
prisonment for this crime may be changed
for the first offense from 12 to 20 years.and
tor the secoad one to the period of his
natural life.

My Colleen, a romantic Comedy Drama
which will be seen at our Opera House,
Monday, Dec. 4th. Comes to us heralded
by run.- of seven weeks in Chicago, six in
New York, three in St. Louis, four each in
Boston and Philadelphia, and oorrespond
ing seasons in all the large cities. It is
by James A. Heme, author of the well
known til ay Hearts of Oak, and whose
Shore Acres has just concluded the largest
run on record at the Boston Museum. My
Colleen is a senic production, among its
features being a real rain storm, rain
bow, vision scene, and sensational
bridge scene resembling the famous Span
of Lile effect. While abounding in humor
oas situations and crisp «nd witty dia
logue, the plot reveals a sweet and whole
some home story which touches every
heart.
Mr. Tony Farrell is a graceful and hand
some young comedian, said to bo strikingly
like W. J Scanlan, aad like the latter
composes all his own songs. He is "sup
ported by the same company lately seen in
Chicago and tit. Louis, prominent among
whom is a remarkably clever child actress
and vocalist, little Nellie Clare. My Col
leen is a play of a higher order than the
average, and one that all will want to

SILVER FOAM FLOUR
u K :c*l Lit at the Cooking Lectures
of Mrs. Ewing in W.C T.U. Hall last week-
Mrs. E wing convinced her audience that
SILVER FOAM was all we claimed for it.
All the ladies who have since baked SFL
VER FOAM for themselves have found it the
best flour they ever used. It is positively
the highest grade of Flour manufactured,
and is not only extremely white, bat con
tains all the constituent elements of a pal
atable and wholesome bread
The product of our mills bring us the
most flattering testimonials. Wejast re
ceived a letter from Ex-Governor McGill,
of Minneapolis, Minnesota, in which he
says:
"FLOUR RECEIVE I' ASO PASS OCT BBAUTI
FULLY."
We ship to the finest trade in the United
States. Yes. even dealers buy our flour
for their own use, while they sell the so
called "cheap makes" of other mills to
their customers. By the way some of
these dealers live in Bntler.
Sow to all the good words about our
Flonr, must be added the belter sentiment
that the price as others say, is "ridiculous
ly low " The "card" explains the cost.
The times are bard. Then why dels) |to
' 'GET 'A CARD' AND STVK VOUR MOSEY.
A VTOUD TO FARMERS.
We still contiuue to pay ea.-b, 00 cents
per bushel of 48 pounds of dry, clean Buck
wheat. Or we will exchange 73 pounds of
Buckwheat middlings <no hulls in them)

you prefer yellow shelled ccrn, we will
give you 70 ponnds tor every 48 pounds of
Buckwheat. These offers are good until
further notice in the But'er papers. We
always stand by our old advertisements.
You run no risks in bringing your Buck
wheat any distauce without further ar
rangements. We have farmers who come
to us twenty miles from adjoining counties.
Our 70 cent Xo. 1 Dairy Salt will soon be

The Forum's Reduction of Price.
The Forum, which itn readers regard as
the foremost of oar periodicals, reduces its
price, begining with the December number,
from $5. to $3. a year, from 50 cts. to 25
cts. a copy. This is the most noteworthy
redaction in periodical literature that has
taken place—perhaps that can take place.
Magazines of fiction arid adventure, the
illustrated monthlies, were within every
body's reach even before the recent reduc
tion in the price of gomn of them. But no
periodical of the class of The Forum has
ever been sold for 25 cts, It becomes the
cheapest by half of ull great Reviews in
the v rid, and it remains the largest of all
our periodicals of its kind, and its character
is in no way changed.—The Forum Pub

RUPTURE
Cannot always be cured, but a
properly fitting Truss will do
more toward curing you than any
thing else. A small rupture is
more dangerous than a large one
but is more readily held in place.
CJuite a number of ptrsons who
have been fitted by us have been
entirely cured, but this is not al
ways the case. The sooner we
have them visit us after finding
they are ruptured the more hope
of a complete cure. We make a
specialty of Trusses for both
ladies and gentlemen, and give di
rections for private measurement
for the former. All cases consid
ered strictly private. Ruying
Trusses by mail from some person
who says he can cure you is on a
paralell with the number of cures
there are for consumption. If you
have had trouble in being fitted
elesewhere let us try what we can
do for you.
