A fund amouuting to S4OO has been raised
in Bradford county toward building a soldiers'
monument. Several unsuccesful attempts
have been made in this county to start a fund
for the same purpose.— Agitator.
We learn that the S. L. & S. R. R. Co. are
surveying for an extension of their track from
Monroeton to this place. Their business has
increased very largely and the single track of
the Barclay road is inadequate to the demands
of both Companies.
In washing dishes use milk instead of soap.
Fill a dish pan full of hot water and add half
a cup of milk. It softens the hardest water,
gives the dishes a clear, bright look, and
preserves the hands from the rough skin or
chapping which comes from using soap. It
cleans the greasiest dishes without leaving
the water covered with scum.
An old farmer in Bradford county put a
quantity of gunpowder in the stove in the
•'spare room" last summer for safe keeping.
The old woman started a firo in that stove
one cold morning recently, and very shortly
there was a pyrotecbuic display not on the
bills . The cautious farmer is now almost
heart broken because he is obliged to buy a
new stove.—W ellsborough Agitator.
The Scientific Society connected with the
Susquehanna Collegiate Institute, will celc"
bratc its second anniversary at the Institute
building, Friday evening. The programme
will consist of essays and music. Probably
Hon. E. L. HILLIS will be present to give
some select readings. After {the entertain
ment, refreshments will be served. Proceeds
will be for increasing the library. All are
-nvited.
Prof. E. C. ELDREDGE, of Elmira Female
College, proposes to organize a class in Oil
Painting in Towanda, if a sufficient number
desire to take lessons to warrant/liis coming.
Prof. ELDREDGE is a graduate of the Ameri
can Academy of Designs,of New York city,
has pursued his studies in Europe for two
years, and now holds the position of instruct
or in art in the Elmira Female College. This
will be a rare chance to those desiring .to re
ceive instruction from a teacher of high or
der. For terms, or other particulars, address,
or call upon E. E. QUINLAN.

SGO,OOO SAVED.— As a matter of economy
in 1877 the Philadelphia and Reading and the
Lehigh Vailey Railroad Companies decided to
dispense with the men who were employed
to wipe engines. The Reading Company went
still further and painted many of its engines
a very dark brown color that time might not
be employed in burnishing the brass work.
Mr. Go WEN claimed that dispensing with the
cleaners saved him soo,oo® in one year. It
was found that the injury to the machinery
by this neglect, and the delay in moving
trains owing to the tracks becoming greasy
from the engines made the loss really amount
to more than SOO,OOO, and the wipers were
again employed, the Reading Company put
ting on a greatly reduced force, while the
Lehigh Valley Company, about two weeks
ago, put on the same force they removed.—

NEW PAPERS. —We have received during
the past week a copy of the Register , a neat
little paper somewhat smaller than the RE
VIEW, just established in Troy by FRANK
LOOMIS, who has been engaged m job printing
for some time. ALBERT MORGAN is the edi
tor. Though petite it is newsy and we doubt
not will grow in sizo as it advances in years.
Success to it.
The Daily Revieio, Waverly, N. Y., is an
other new venture in the newspaper world,
which starts off well. Brother WALES has
lots of energy and enterprise, and deserves
success. The paper is neatly printed and
contains all the important news both tele
graphic and local.
The Sunday Tidinqs is the title of anew
paper to he issued next Sunday for the first
time, by BRIGGS & COPELAND, Ehnira. The
former is business manager, and the latter
one of the editors of the Advertiser. There
are too many trashy, sensational Sunday
papers already.
