Soon will the f. stive game of ball

And through tu land will sound the cry
'•Hey, mister, what's de scoreT"
—The spring styles in men's bats are
feirfully and wonderfully made.
—The most promising candidates some*
times keep their promises.
—1 be Y. M. C. A. meetings in the Kei
b«r building, every Bundav afternoon at
4?clook, are largely attended.
—Many a man who claims to be looking
ior work wouldn't recognize a job if it
stepped up and tapped him on the should
er.
—The tire insurance rates in Pennsylva
nia, outside of Philadelphia and Pittsburg,
have been increased from 5 to 15 per
cent.
—Roast or boil a lemon, fill it while hot
with sugar and eat it at bedtime as bot as
it can be borne. This will break up a
cold.
—lt is said that the recent introduction
of free text bookß has increased the attend
ance ot the public schools of this State 25
per cent.
—The Pennsylvania fire insurance com
panies lost $2,000,000 more than they re
ceived as premiums last year, and yet they
are solvent.
—Hardnp—That man looks as though he
had smallpox. I wouldn't touch him for
$lO. Wigwag—Ton probably wouldn't
get it if you did.
—The bald-beaded men who sit in the
front row at the theatre are termed astron
omers by the ushers, because they are so
fond of watching the stars.
—Cynicus—That Miss Queerspy always
waa an eccentric. Sillycus—What has sne
been doing nowt Cynicas Why, she
married the man she was ia love with.
—lf "a peok of March dust is worth a
king's ransom," Butler was a very wealthy
town, Taesday, and that evening we wash
ed out our clothes and brushed our
throats.
—The maple trees are in blos?om, the
grass is getting green, the potato bugs are
orawling around and the yellow-jackets are
on the wing—all of which indicate the ap
proach of spring.
—lt will be news to most people that un
der certain conditions and circumstances
the School boards have the right of emi
nent domain. The School Board of Butler
proposes using this right in regard to the
old cemetery facing McKean and North
streets.
—The other evening a yojng man went
galloping around a corner, on the paved
streets, and the next moment he and bis
horse were sprawling in the dust. His
horse's feet bad alipped on the smooth
brioks.
—Small boys hang upon the ends of
wagons—notably delivery wagons. The
other day a small boy of Pearl street got
his loot caught on the bed of a wagon, and
the driver started off with the boy hang
ing head down.
—Horatio Sing relates that when the
attending physician at Lincoln's bed-side
laid his finger on the martyr's pulse and
announced that the end bad come, Secre
tary Stanton, who was standing by, said
with deep feeling, "He now belongs to
the ages." It was a deep and powerful
utterance.
—A name isn't a faithful description of!
its wearer. James P. Whiskey man is the
landing officer of the Christian Endeavor
Society of Reading. Pa., and Christian
Angel, of Winside, Neb, is in jail for strip
ping the wash from his neighbor's olothes
line.
—Do you hope to see the day when
•Yeryone will be satisfied and no one will
be kiekingf Don't do it. It is rain. When
prices are away np the customers will
kick, and when they are away down the
producer will get in his work. So will it
go. Never will all be contented at once.
The conditions which are very favo.able
for some will be just as undesirable for
others. The time will never come when
•Yeryone will be satisfied.
—That the men who purchased the old
Brady's Bend iron property mean business
there seems to be no donbt, and also that
it will be to their interest to have a short
line of railroad to oonnect with the lakes
goes without saying. They already have a
P*rtJ of sarveyera at work seeking the best
roato from Brady's Bend to the P. S. A L.
E, and, according to an article we copy
from the East Brady Beview, intend going
to work as soon as the route Is detei mined
upon. From a glance at the map we
would judge that the surveyors would have
a choice of three routes it—one to Hilliards
one to the headwaters of the Slippery rock
or Gomersol and one to the headwaters of
the Connoquenessing and thence down to
the railroad.
—The drawing effect ot the prospect of a
free drink was ludicrously illustrated at a
public sale in tbe eastern part of the State
the other day. John >'ace, who owns a
large distillery, had advertised a pnblic
Mle of stock. A rumor was circulated that
there would be free whiskey from bis dis
tillery. Three thousand people wore at
the sale and 617 teams were counted tied
to tbe fence. There was no whiskey, how
ever. Mr. Nace said he ran his distillery
to make money, not to give away its pro
duct, and a large part of that crowd of
three thousand thirsty individuals drifted
drearily homeward with that tired feeling
which comes of disappointed hopes of a
free drink.
—We have *een quite a number ot watch
obains about tow ornamented with a neat
little obarm in tbe shape of a watch case
opener, which obviates the use of a knife
or flnger-nail to open the watch. We have
just received one, and would advise you to
•end for one, too. They are sent free on
reqaeat by the Keystone Watch Case Com
pany, of Philadelphia, Pa , the largest
watch case manufacturing concern in the
world. They are tbe makers of the cele
brated Jap. Boss cases, the only filled cases
which are fitted with the world-famed
Non-pull-out bow (ring). The Company
does not sell at retail, but its goods are
sold by oar local jewelers.
Tom, made to slay in after school,

In simple frac'lons. Worn with carßN
With mouth tight shut and hands in Bair,
The two-line task in vain he tries
And trie* again to tnomerixe.
Dismissefl.'Tom, quite another chap,
Before a bill-boaid stands agape.

With cirous poster* pastod o'er.
Jaw-breaking words crowd every part—
.And Tom has learned them all by heart.
—The "warm sugar" social is now be"
coming epidemic in the churches.
—The Tucker Bros, offer to keep the
paved streets clean for 50 cents a month
from each property owner.
—Our three weeks of pretty weather
wound up yesterday with snow and rain,
and a thunder storm while the mercury
was below the freezing point.
—An exchange thinks that the old-time
in-cription,"Hie Jaeet," could be fittingly
put on the tombstono of the New Jersey
man who died a few days ago of hiccoughs
—The friends of the T M. C. A. will re
joice to learn that Bev. A. J. Nathan, a
converted Jew, has been seenred by the
Association and a number ot the leading
churches to conduct a special series of
ur.ion evangelistic meetings, beginning
April 3d
—While Sam Boren, of New Brighton,
was driving out the Millerstown road to
Esq. Gilleland's, Friday night, two men
stopped 'lim near Kearns' and, after a
struggle with him, took his watch, chain
and revolver. The parties each fired some
shots.
—An honest man may be the noblest
work of God, says the Bradford Era, yet
be may be an awful nuisance when he gets
stuck on his particular virtue. The same
paper remarks that tne self-made man usu
ally puts into the job so much conceit that
the other qualities are somewhat dwarfed.
—Superintendant of Public Instruction
Schaeffer has notified directors of certain
school districts in the state that failure to
teach physiology in the school as required
by act of April 2, 1885, is a cause of forfeit
ure of the State appropriation. It appears
that certain districts have not been teach
ing this branch.
—Seanor is the best horse buyer that
comes through this county—that is he pays
the best prices and bays more horses than
any other buyer. Last week be bought
four in Millerstown, fourteen in Sunbnry,
nineteen in Grove City, and thirteen in
Butler, paying from $45 to $l3O. He ex
pects to be here again next Tuesday.
—The immensity of the Pennsylvania
lines can be judged from the following:
Every minute there are 19 tons of coal,
170,000 gallons of water and 11 gallons of
oil used. It has on its pay rolls 104.000
employes, and to pay them every hour
takes a block of silver Bxßx2o inches. The
receipts of the Penn'a Co. last year run
over $l3O 000,000.
—As warm weather will soon ua here a
timely caution may not be out of place.
There are 2,000,000 sweat pores and nine
miles of prespiration pores in the human
body. These figures are given by some
one who has made a count, and may be ac
cepted as approximately correct. They
are sufficient, anyway, to show that it is a
(earful thing tor a fellow to exert himself
to the sweating point.
—Bill Nye writes: "Every newspaper
man ha*, at some time in his newspaper
experience, met the man who takeß more
papers than he can read, lie was in town
last week. He paid 25 cents for an almau
ac. wiped bis nose on an awning, tried to
blow oat an electric light at the hotel,tried
to light bis segar on it, put a nickle in the
slot at the postoflice because the mail
didn't appear, wanted to lick the cashier
of the bank because it closed at 3 o'clock,
and watched the sign over the jewelry
store looking for it to strike."
—An exchai go «ound* warning to the
farmers as follows: If any farmer in this
section has produced samples of grain from
the World's Fair agriculture building be
will do well to burn it forthwith. It has
been iound that the whole exhibit has
been attacked by the weevil, a pest whose
larva is a worm that barrows into the
grain, and has done enormons damage to
the crops in Southwestern Russia and in
India, whence, doubtless, it was brought
to the World's Fair. It is stated that
thousands of samples bare been carried
from the agriculture building; and there is
presumably not a corner of the United
States where the pest has not been carried
—The new book issued by the State on
titled "Pennsylvania at Gettysburg" is go
>ug to be —in fact is—a very valuable vol
ume from a historical standpoint. The
book is handsomely printed and contains
pictures by the photogravure process of
every monument erected by Pennsylvania
on the famous battle-field, together with a
portrait of General Meade and a group
picture ot the Battlefield Memorial Com
mission, which has so ably performed its
work. Perhaps the leading leature of the
book is the valuable historical data con
tained in the speeches made at the dedica
tion of the various monuments. Every
speech was made by some one who par
ticipated in the fight, and they have thus
preserved in print facts and statements
that gives the true story of the part Penn
fylvania played in tne great struggle.

An Interest ng Lecture,
The Rev. J. L Smith, of Pittsburg,
lectured in the English Lutheran Church
on Tuesday evening last, on the subject of
"The Pilgrim Fathers." He told the
history of Ihese fore-fathers who landed on
Plymouth Rock, December 25. 1620. in an'
interesting and eloquent manner, the
cause ol their leaving the old eojntry,
their perils at sea in the ship Mayflower,
their ti ials after the landing on the bleak
and rocky shores of New E iglamt, theu in
habited by the ludiaus only, their rWigi
oUB faith, perseverance ana sufferings,
were all brought to view by the lec urer.
From these Pilgrim Fathers we date the
very origin of freedom in religions belief in
this country as wall as the foundation of
our free institutions. The lesson sought to
be enforced in tho lecture was the great
debt our present great Republic of thb
I'nited States owes to the Pilgrim
Fathers It would interest any audience
ami many here who heard it could listen
to it again with pleahure and profit The
lecturer was introduced to the audience b\
Rev. E. Smith, the pastor of the church
here.

RUPTURE
I
| 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 lage one
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. Al! cases consid
ered strictly private. Buying
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
elesewhcre let us try what we can
do for you.

Now is your chance to get a bargain in MEN'S,
