Every Woman Should Read this Advice and the Generous Offer that Goes With It. The number of diseases pecu liar to women is such that we be lieve this space would hardly contain a mere mention of their names, and it is a fact that most of these diseases are of a ca tarrhal nature. A woman can not be well if there is a trace of catarrh in her system. Some women think there is no help for them. We positively declare this to be a mistaken idea. We are so sure of this that we offer to supply medicine ab solutely free of all cost In every instance where it fails to give satisfaction, or does not sub stantiate our claims. With this understanding, no woman should hesitate to believe our honesty of purpose, or hesitate to put our claims to a test. There is only one way to over come catarrh. That way is through the blood. You may use all the snuffs, douches or like remedies for years without get ting more than temporary relief at best. Catarrh in general is a diseased condition of the system that shows locally most frequent ly in discharges from mucous membranes. Local treatment should be assisted by internal treatment for the general dis eased condition if a complete cure is to be reached. That internal treatment should be scientifically devised and faithfully adminis tered. Rexall Mucu Tone is scientifi cally prepared from the prescrip tion ot an eminent physician who for thirty years made catarrh his specialty. This remedy is admirably adapted to the treat ment of the catarrhal ailments of women. It purifies and enriches the blood, tends to stop mucous discharges, aids in removing im purities from the system, soothes heals and strengthens the mucous tissues, and briDgs about a feel ing of health and strength. We want you to try Rexall Mucu-Tone on our guarantee. If you are not benefited, or for any reason not satisfied, simply tell us and we will hand back your money. Rexall Mucu-Tone comes in two sizes, 50 cents and 1.00. Remember, you can ob tain Rexall Remedies only at The Kexall Store. Leslie W. Seylar. Additional Census Notes. The census4 report shows that Pennsylvania has an average far surpassing that of Ohio and Illinois, and about twenty less than that of New York. The population of the State is by no means evenly dispersed; for it is possible to pass through the State from north to south with out entering a county one fourth as densely populated as the State at large. Fulton county has an average population of 23 to the square mile, but two other coun ties in the state have less Cam eron, 20, and Pike, 13, . The coun ty having the largest number cf inhabitants to the square mile is Philadelph'a with 11,916 and Al legheny is second with 1,334. Twenty-two of the sixty-seven counties have a population of less khan fifty to the square mile and fourteen, less than forty. Of our immediate neighbors, 'Bedford has 30; Huntingdon, 41; and Frankhn, 82. Farmers' Week. Farmers' Week at The Penn sylvania State College will be held this year December 19th to 24th, inclusive.

A f nnd of 1 16, 000 that has been accumulating in the Montgomery county treasury for many years from dog tax is about to be dis tributed by the Commissioners among the various school dis tricts of the county. For some reason former Commissioners have neglected making this dis tribution, and the present Board thought that it would do the BchooU more good than lying in the county treasury. Under the law the money derived from dog tax is applied to damage claims resulting from depredations by canines. A certain percentage of the money will be retained to meet these.

During the latter part of last May, as Mr. and Mrs. Ahimaaz Runyan were returning to their home at Need more, from a visit to Mr. Joseph Runyan's in the lower end ot Pigeon, Cove, they lost a black wool shawl. They came out of Joseph Runyan's field through the bars, over past Mrs. Hughes's up to the Ridge road, and missed the shawl just before they got to Mr. Hender shot's. It is not so much on ac count of the intrinsic value of the shawl, as because it belonged to her mother, that Mrs. Runyan is anxious to get the shawl back. The finder will confer a great favor by leaving it at her home at Needmore, or with Joseph Run yan's, or Howard Hill's at War-fordsburg. Estray Notice.
