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,

A splendid opportunity is of
fered to all farmers interested in

men who have practical experi
ence as well as scientific knowl
edge. In addition to the lectures,
many practical demonstrations
in judging dairy cattle, beef cat
tle, horses, sheep, swine and
poultry will be given. The pro
gram is so arranged that any in
dividual can attend lectures dur
ing each period upon the subjocta
which mtorest h'm most
Many of the speakers are men
of national prominence .In their
respective lines from " this and
other states. Every farmer, who
can possibly do so, should ar
range to spend at Jeast a part of
the wook in getting into touch
with this practical science which
is offered.

Dog Tax For Schools.
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.
Ends Winter's Troubles.
To many, winter is a season of
trouble. The frost bitten toes'
and fingers, chapped hands and
hps, chilblains, cold, sores, red
and rough skins, prove this. But
such trouoles fly beforeBucklen's
Arnica Salve. A trial convinces.

Lost A Shawl.
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.
