—The Old Sport was not happy this
morning. He looked a trifle troubled over
something, and Gossip veutured the remark
that he may have been up too late last
night and gone beyond the limit. "No, it
is not that," be said, as he shook his head
sadly. Then, reflectively, chewing the end
of his cigar, he said: "You may have re
marked the large number of tramps in the
city of latef" Gossip said that ho bad
noticed a preponderance of the class who
do not ride on passenger trains and whoso
appearance betokened a soft coal diet.
"Yes," said Old Sport, ' I see you are on—
you've seen 'em. So have I. I don't want
to see any more of them. This moruing
I was coming down street, after breakfast,
feeling at peace with all the world. At
Third aud State I met a tramp who looked
as if he bad been rolled in coal dust He
was a slight built youug fellow, and as he
stepped up to me aud asked me to help
bim get something to eat, I placed a dime
in his hand. 'Oil,sir,' he said, just like yon
road in children's story books, 'Oh, sir,
thank you. lam very hungry, but it goes
against me to beg. This is the first time I
have asked anybody to help me, but I am
compelled to because I have pawned every
thing but this ring,' and hero he showed
me a plain gold ring. 'lt was my mother's,
but it will have to be sold, for I must have
money to get to Reading. Could you tell
me whore there is a pawnshop!" I told
bim not to sell his riug—bio mother's ring,
and offered to help him get to Reading, but
he declined saying that he did not wish to
trespass on my kindness. Why, you never
taw such consideration iu a trauip. It
touched me, and I told the fellow that
sooner thau let bim pawn his mother's riug
I would give him money enough on it to get
to Reading, where he said his rich u cle
lived, and he could redeem it. Tho tears
rolled down his ch- eks and cut furrows in
the coal dirt until bis lace looked like a
section of a California farm seamed with
irrigating ditches, and the upshot of it ail
was that I gave him live dollars and took
his ring aud his address iu Reading Just
a few minutes ago 1 was telliug the story
to a jeweler friend of mine and ho asked
me to let him see the ring I handed it to
him and he smiled. Then he got out that
bottle of acid aud dropped some on the
riuK and laughed, 'S'oiatterf' 1 asked.
'How much did you give that tramp on
this riug?' asked the jeweler, 'Five dol
lars.' 'lean get you a peck of th.'Ui for
two cents, and you have been taken in.'
And by the Great Horn Spoon if that tramp
hadn't worked a racket on uie that is as
old as the hills, has whiskers a yard long
and all white, ai d is bow-backed. Well,
well, if 1 don't want somebody to take me
out into the country and put me in a field
to graze on snow balls. lam no good auy
more. Anybody can play me. To think
that I should be worked by an old game
like that Too bad—it destroys my faith
in human nature '' Aud old sport slowly
ambled away.—Harnsburg Tcleyrayh

Oil Notes.
Throughout last week the well on the
Grubbs farm in Allegheny county contin
ued to flow without a skip or a break, as
tue horsemen say, and according to the in
formation of au official of the Philadelphia
company placed about 7,000 bbl». of oil to
its credit. None but a novice in the busi
ness would claim that the record of the
well is not a good one, as far as it has been
tested. When the production declined all
that was neceessary to bring it back was
agitation and it responded with a will.
For once, at least, the oil producers, re
finers, speculators and all others interested
in the business can act unitedly in oppos
ing the placing ot petroleum on the free
list. — Blizzard

A Timely Bit of Advice,
In these times of grip and pneumonia it
is of great importance that we should know
where to look for a safe and sure remedy.
A slight colli may become a serious one,
the scarcely noticeable pain in the chest is
too often the foreruuuer of pneumonia. The
first cough may load to consumption (a
cough is always dangerous.) Never ne
glect a cold or cough for even a day, but
get at once, as a sale and sure remedy,
Kemp's Balsam, the best cough cure.whicn
is recommended ou all sides. It should be
kept in tho house n-gularly to avoid belay
when ue ided. It is sold at all drug stores.

To the Music Loving People of

Grieb & Lamb display in their
window an A. B. Chase Piano, one
of the mates which gained the VERY
HIGHEST AWARD obtainable given at
the World's Fair. To obtain such
an honor a piano must surely be per
fection, since none others but those
of the very best make, such as the
celebrated Chickering of Boston, the
tiehr Bros, of New York, &c, were
accorded the same honors. Grieb &
Lamb have for years sold and con.
stantly kept in stock three makes of
pianos, also two of organs, which re
ceived the highest awards, something
that even no Pittsourg dealer can
boast of. Their object is not to get
a large profit, but to gain the confi
dence of their customers and furnish
such goods that will always give sat
isfaction. The above facts demon
strate the earnestness of purpose We
are in position to furnish most any
make of instruments at the very low
est cash prices, as we are not sub
agents, but "general agents" for all
goods we handle, controling many
counties, thereby saving you the mid

RUPTURE
| Cannot always be cured, but a
| properly fitting Truss will do
I more toward curing you than any
thing else. A sm.ill rupture is
more dangerous than a la ge otu
but is more readily held in place.
Quite a number of persons 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. Buying
Trusses by mail from some person
who says he can cure you is on a
paralell with the riThnber of cures
there are for consumption. If you
have had trouble in being fitted
elesewhere let us try what we can
do tor you.
