The appreciation shown for the two splendid flower pictures giverj free to readers of the great Philadelphia Sun day "Press" this year has led the publishers to provide a third great picture, which will be given free with every copy of next Sunday's "Press" (June 3). This picture, which is quite as attractive as the famous "Yard of Hoses" and "Easter Lilies" pictures, is called "A Basket of Blossoms." It is by the famous Paul De Longpre, and Is one of his best works. It Is 20 by 28 inches in size and is also note worthy as being the first example of a new method of color printing', which is quite as wonderful as the picture it self. The publishers guarantee that every picture will be perfect.

Decoration Day is the main topic of conversation now. A big day is expected at Antioch.

Dry weather, dusty roads, and weather prophets have furnished plenty of talk for the profession al gossiper during'the last week or so. But today, judging from the fleecy, curtains hanging be tween earth and heaven, we have good promises of inclement weather soon. Mr. and Mrs. . Jacob Clouser and Mary Shives made a flying trip to McConnellsburg last Saturday. This morning, as the forenoon advanced, some of our people bo- came restless for fear it might be too cloudy to observe the eclipse of the Sun. But, after patiently waiting for some time the clouds cleared away enough to give an ordinary view of the eclipse. As a total eclipse of the sun does not often occur, a few remarks here might interest some one. Dur this century, eight times only has this interesting phenomenon of the sun been visible on the North American continent though nearly nine times that number have taken place during the last hundred years. The eclipse of the sun or moon is generally spoken of as a shadow cast over their surface but such is not true in every case. ' The eclipse of tho sun this morning was caused by the moon passing directly be tween tho earth and the sun. A total eclipso of tho sun can only occur about the time of the new moon, and then, the moon must be directly betwoen the earth and tho sun. While a total eclipse of tho moon can only occur near tho time of tho full moon; and then, only when tho sun ison the opposite side of the earth from tho moon. Then tho shadow of the earth is cast upon the face of tho moon. How many persons, especially young folks, while look ing at the eclipse this morning, knew, or took time to think, that tho face of the king of heat and light was as clear as it ever shone since the beginning. And that they were looking against the moon which was between them and tho sun. Perhaps not every one took as much interest in pre paring to view the eclipso to day as the writer did, but the knowl edge gained has doubly repaid for all trouble gone to.

A largo crowd of young folks attended May Mooting at Tonol oway. Tho person or persons who have been doing the w.riting concerning play parties, had better keep quiet; for if he is found out ho will get the full benefit of the law. Any body that would write such stuff and strew it around for the public to read, doesn't havo common sense, and isn't fit to run loose.
