Mr. Job Truax, one of Belfast township's wide- awake supervis ors, attended tho road meeting at the Court House, Tuesday after noon, and remained in town over night.

He is now reading Gipsy Smith's sermons and re gards them as very superior. Dr. James is 70 years old and is as strong, as a young farm hand. It is hoped he may have many years yet of strength and health. Orbisonia Dispatch.

Our hustling little town Saltillo just across the northern border of Fulton county in Huntingdon county is about to enjoy the ad vantages of an abundant supply of good water piped through the town.

She treats, him as a rational being, with equal rights to work out his own life as she has. If he thinks he is wrong, she persuades him into another way with more subtle art than many kings use in coercing a prime minister. If lie wishes to walk alone in the afternoon or evening, hammering out some scheme in hisown mind or retreshing himself-by solitude, apart f.om things that make him think, she is acquiescent. And mind you, she does not ac quiesce moodily, with a question, sponen or unspoken, as to what she has done that he does not care for her company. She ohoerful ly nods her perfect understand ing of his wishes and desires. She, too, often wants t: bo alonp, although she may love this man more than all the other things in the world combined, aud he has always hit her be when the mood was upon her. To sum it all up iu a phrase that, Americans understand; she treats him as though she were another man. There are moments for love, emotion and sentiment, but she understands that there are thousands of other moments when two humans, who must be together irost of the time, must treat each other as if thev were of the same sex. This is the lesson a young wife must learn. It is an art to let a man alone, for it is achieved only through perception, and careful, hourly study. There is no royal road to it. Some wo men are born with more or less of a temperamental learning to ward this attitude, but even these women must practise with pati ence and analysis. And the women who do this have their reward. They will catch the tiest hus bauds aud keep them throughout decades. Men mourn their absence from hearth and home more than they mourn for any beauty, brilliancy or cookery. They are the women who understand! X . vi-uted the tetter's sister, Mrs. Charles Sipes at Hustontown last Sunday; and also, Miss Delia Doshong, Lihbie Chesnut, and Minnie Carouthers.
