stones wore about an iach in diameter.

always happened heretofore that the boat

"When you go away for the summer,
don't forget tne cat.', Too many people
when they lock up the house and go away

that the poor animal is half starved and

you go away.
—During the storm of Tuesday after

German Lutheran ohnroh, splintering the
top stone of one of the minarets and scat
tering broken stone and bricks over the
roof of thd church, church lot and pave
ments. Quite a hole was made in the min
aret and it will have to be rebuilt, and
torn* of the slates of the roof will. have to
be replaced. The lightning seems to have
followed the spouting and water to the
ground, as no damage was done to the in
side of the church.
—Last yoar thirty-seven towns in Con
neticut began the work of macadamizing
their roads, aud this year it is estimated
that more than eighty towns will be enga
ged upon such improvements. The towns
begin in a atnall way, the average length
of roads reconstructed last year in oach
town being from half to three-quarters of
» mile Tne State, the county and the
town each pay one-third of the cost of the
rork, and the State's appropriation is $75,
>OO, while three State commissioners sn
>erviae the work. The proof of the pop
liar satisfaction with the system is the in
trease tais year in the number of towns
adopting it.

he new railroad passe? under the Pittsburg

rarveys were high up. If this survey is

;restling over the bottom land. The
•oute adopted, as wo understand it is
torn Dutler to Renfrew, up Thorn Creek
So Frazier's Mill, up the run and across
itae summit to one of the branches of Bull
ireek. aid down i f to a point near Cuhner
rilln, where the road is to go through a

—Some days ago the water in tho dam
tt Boydstown, became so foul that it was
illowed to run out. and siuce that time
rarious stories regarding the finding of the
■emains of a man, dead calf, etc, have
>eeu circulated in Butler, but they have
lot been authenticated. The water had
>een standing oecr some boggy ground,
itumps, bushes, etc, whioh alone was
tnongh to pollute it, without the addition
>f animat matter. All the water has been
illowed to run out of that dam, and tho
Jompany now has a force at work taking

ter; and the water now being pumped into

—The definitons of worJs by school chil
dren are curious and ofteu amusing. An
educational paper gives instances from a
recent examination ot a class of boj s.
Among them »re these: "Frantic, wild;

strong; the butter w»s too athletic to use.
—The statistician has at last got down
to the startling and powerful influence of
the bicycle on the traue ol the couniry.
He finds that In fif'ean industrial branches
which have been, most affected by the
cycling fever, there is now a yearly loss
0f5112.300,000. Those who make a busi
ness of catering to the wants ofliorse tiders
and diiver.s have suffered to the extent <>i
$15,000,000 annually, "horses and livery
showing a deticit of $20,000,000, "pleasure
vehicles," $15,000,000, and "harness and
saddles," $10,1*00,003. The bicycle is res
p jnsibie for the falling off of $13,o0t),000 in
piano sales, $7,000,000 in jewelry and $4,-
000,000 in watches. The consumption of
cigars has dropped $7,000,000, and of con
fectionary by $6,000,000, while tailors.mourn
a loss of $lO 000,000, and the purveyors of
dress goods and millinery a similar amount.
The street railways are estimated to have
suffered to the extent 0f53,000,000 annual
ly but in all probability this is an absurdly
low calculation. Among the remaining
trades, the sellers of whisky and lager are
shown to have lost $2,500,000, railroads,
excursions, etc., $2,500,000, and theaters
$5,000,000.
—Cherries curdle milk, so does lemo
nade; and the curdled milk is liable to fer
ment and extend the stomach, which
paralyse the nerves of the stomach, and
this paralysis sometimes extends to the
brain and back to the heart, causing death.
An instance in illustration is the following:
"John Keefe of Petrolia, son of the late
David Keefe, who was drowned in an oil
tank at that place about three months ago,
met death in a very strange manner on
Monday evening. Be ate a quantity of
cherries and then drank milk and lemo
nade and shortly alter was taken with
cramps and soon became unconscious He
could not be restored to consciousness de
spite all that was done and in four hours
he was dead. Deceased wan 22 years of
age and was a robust young man. The re
mains were brought to this place Wednes
day morniug from Petrolia, followed by
relatives and friends, and services were
held in the St. Ensebiua church, conducted
by Rev. J. P. I'.cCloskey. The interment
tooK place in the cemetery on the hill."
Some years ago a stout healthy roan of
this town, went to Pittsburg, and drank
freely of beer, when he came home he ate
aeartily of sour-crout, the crout fermented
aud ho was doail in a few hours after eat
ing it.

Till recently this cost $0 per dozen extra
Also a special price will bo given on sets
of teeth to all who get extracting done be

and kindly toll your neighbors ai.d Irieuds.
Peopie should make every elTort to preserve
the teeth nature gave them. To day mod
ern dentistry aims to do this more than
ever before. No cavity is too small to lill.
A good tooth is worth more than a diamond
A perfectly clean tooth never decays. A
tooth past filling can often be crowned
and restored to usefulness. Pretty teeth
and pretty eyes add much to your ap
pearance and are an advantage in a busi
ness and social way.

Doing Great Business.
Nothing succeeds like success, and the
success that is crowning Joseph Liebler's
efforts iu the insurance business verify
this statement. Most everybody knows
Joseph Liebler is the hustling anil ener
getic district manager of the Manhattan
Life Insurance Company of New York,
and has been doing a mammoth business
in that line for seme time past. He has
just returned from a business tnp to
Pittsburg, where he had been called to
insure his brother-in-law, Peter Schott,
the well-known trunk manufacturer of
| Lawrenceville, for fio,oto, and his two
sons Lawrence and George, for f5,000 and
and $2,000 respectively. Among the many
policies taken out in the last three weeks
are the following: Charles L. Conway,
! liveryman, »5,c jo; W» H. Kitler. the well
known nominee for the senate on the
Repnblican ticket, $ 5,000; Christ Fletch
er, the hackman for Gregg, |2,0c 0; Mr.
Niblock, of Petersville, fainter,
Mrs. Mary K. Thompson, |i, 000; William
F. McCandless, well-known agriculturist
and berry grower of Mt. Chestnut, $5,000;
John Weyman, farmer, #S,CDO; John W.
Conard, of Carbon Centre, oil producer,
fs,o< >; G. W. Geisler, faimer of Herman,
ft, 000; W. B. Hamilton, an accident in
surance agent of Pittsburg, L. A.
Mitchell, £2,000; Harry G. ieb, the popu
lar and accommodating jeweler, $5,000.
and his son Eddie, ?2,c to. These have
all been gotten in the last three weeks,
1 and while there are quite a lot of them,
they do not equal 'he business done by
liim tlie week he insured the Michel
family for $60,0 x, the wealthy oil peo
ple of* Herman, and Mr. Liebler has often
said he wished there were more Michel
families around as they know a good
thing when they see it. All that have
not insured are cnr«villj- im-ite l U> cctl
011 Mr. Liebler at his office, next door to
postjffice, where he will make it pleasant
for everybody, ladies especially, as he is
a ladies' man, and knows how to enter
tain them. Do not forget that the Man
hattan Life is the oldest and most reliable
life insurance company in the world, and
that a well-known Butler county man,
Joseph Liebler, ip district manager.

AN AUCTION SALb
in the N Y Wholesale Dry Goods
centre is quite a different affair
from one around here—there
hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of one kind of goods are
sold in a few hours.
There were two auction sales
there a short time age, on two
successive days, and we attended
both of them and bought largely
on account of the character and
quality of the silks and the prices
they were sold at. As a result
thereof we submit the following—
greatest values ever offered to any
people:—
Black Hroche Taffetas, 23 £ in
ches wide, 50c. —such extra wide
and good silks as half a dollar
never bought before.
Five lots choice silks:
Black Satin Duchesse,
Black Faille Francaise,
Black Satin Rbadame,
Black Peaule Sole,
Black Gros GriTn7 _
—all at 50c a yard—silks with
tone and character like the dollar
kinds.
Plain Black Habutai Silks, 24
iuches wide, 25c.
We hope you will send for
samples of any of the above goods
you are interested in—such goods
at the prices should hold interest
for ever} - woman—and you'll get
them by return mail, and they'll
prove if what we've said here
doesn't—that they're the most
desirable silks equal money ever
bought.
