8 Fifth A., rittiburjh,
Our old friend Joseph B. Cham
ber s, formerly of the Cove, but
for several years a resident of
South Wayne, Wis., m sending
the cash to renew his subacrip
tion says, that tbey have but lit'
tie snow this winter, and but few
cold days. Just at this time the
ground is covered with a coating
of ice. Mr. Chambers underwent
a Burgical operation for an attack
ot appendicitis recently, and is
just beginning to be out again.
Rev. S. B. Hoffman, of Claren
don, Pa., formerly of Dublin Mills
this countv writes that he has
had several letters of condolence
from friends in this county, and
desires to say through the News
that he is thankful that he is able
to say that there has not been any
circumstances in his family late
ly to call for such letters. The
misunderstanding came from our
Dublin Mills correspondent of
the issue ol January 20th saying
that Ada, a daughter of Rev.
Hoffman, had died. We are in
formed that a child of Rev. Frank
Strayer, a former pastor of the
U. B. congregations in this coun
ty, died recently, and we suspect
that the Dublin Mills correspond
ent was incorrectly informed.
lu remitting the cash to ad
vance her subscription to the
Fulton Countv News into the
year 1912, Mrs. J. E. Carberry,
of Canonsburg, Pa., says: "The
News is a welcome guest into
our family every Friday. It
comes like a letter from home
telling us of old friends who have
crossed the river or of those who
are starting out joyously in mat
rimonial ventures. The common
place gossip of the correspond
ents all means much to us when
we get away from the county. In
our town we have two tin-mills,
one bridge works, one large pot
tery, and another in course of
erection. We have the Buffa
coal mines here, but they are
only working two or three days a
week. Everything else is run
ning full time."
Andrew Musselman, a farmer
near Milnor, Franklin county was
killed by lightning during an
electric storm last Friday even
ing. Andrew had been at the
store at Milnor during the even
ing and started to go home. lie
was walking along a wire fence
on the road when the bolt hit the
fence. The lightning then jump
ed over onto his head. The burns
on his body showed that it ran
down his back and one leg to the
knee. Then it jumped over to
the other leg and ran down it and
into the ground. In entering the
ground the electricity had torn
off the man's shoe and hurled it
across the fence into the field.
Mr. Musselman was smoking a
pipe and chewing tobacco and
when he was found Saturday
morning both were still in his
mouth, indicating that death had
come instantly. Ilia body was
horribly burned. The fence was
also torn.
Wife Got Tip Top Advice.
"My wife wanted me to take
our boy to the doctor to cure an
ugly boil," writes D. Frankel, of
Stroud, Okla. "I said 'put Buck
ten's Arnica Salve on ' ' She did
so, and it cured tho ooil in a short

Table Manners.
"Table manners in their simp
lest form are so taken for granted
by well-bred people that at the
first impulse it seems almost un
necessary to give instructions
concerning details of behavior,"
says Christine Terbune Herrick
in Woman's Home Companion for
January. "But the offenses
against convention we all see at
times prove that everyone does
not know exactly what constitutes
good conduct at meals.
"Is it needful at this stage of
civilization to say that one should
not eat with the knife? It ought
to be, but I am afraid it is not.
Those of us who are accustomed
to eating only in our own homes
or at tables of our friends are
prone to think that nona but bar
barians eat with their knives. A
littln foreign travel is likely to
cure us of that notion Not only
foreigners whom we meet at
hotels or in prisons shock our
sensibilities by suchoffensos, but
our own countrymen often show
us examples of their skill in
sword-swallowing exploits.
"Yet in no circumstances is
eating with the knife anything
but a crime against good manners
The knife is to cut with, the fork
to be used in eating.
