Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Edwards spent a week with their daugh ter, Mrs. W. II. Barnett, at Min ersville recently. The mavy friends of J. 0.

The high winds of Saturday drifted the roads bad ly. The thermometer has been near zero mark for several days. Meade Barnett spent a few days with his brother Howard at the old home last week.

Beaver leaves but three living ex-Governors of Pennsylvania. They are Willian A. Stone, who served from 1899 to 1903, Samuel W. Pennypacker, from 1903 to 1907, and Edwin S. Stuart, from 1907 to 1911. General Beaver was the third Governor from Centre cor.n CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY LINCOLN'8 ANSWER fiEWARU TO By A. W. MACY. William H. Seward and Hi friends were iorely dinappolnt ed at hl failure to secure the nomination for the presidency In 1860. Lincoln displayed both sagacity and' magnanimity when he gave his defeated rival the most important place In his cab. Inet At the time Lincoln was largely an unknown quantity, while Seward was a man of much experience In public af fairs. Seward's friends confi dently expected him to be the strong man of the cabinet, and even to overshadow the execu tive. Shortly after entering up on his duties he handed Lincoln a note containing "Some Thoughts for the President's Consideration." Among other things he suggested the necess ity that some one man should take the lead and grapple boldly with the situation, closing with these words: "Either the pres ident must do it himself, or de volve It upon some member of the cabinet ... It Is not my special province, but I neither seek to evade or as sume responsibility." Lincoln answered the note the same day. On the question cf leadership he simply said, "if this must bs done, I must do It." The mat ter was dropped then and there, and with fine discretion Lin coln kept the correspondence secret. (Cupyrlclit, 1911, by Juveph li. Bowles.) J. B. Wineman, who had been in the mercantile business in Fannettsburg for th i r t y-fi v e years, has sold his store to his son, W. W. Wineman. J. B. Wineman, the retiring merchant, has been in business for a longer period perhaps than any other merchant in Path Valley. He relinquished business with a host of friend3, he always having been obliging and accommodating to his large number of customers. The new owner, Warren Wine man, will endeavor to serve the many old patrons in an equally courteous and satisfactory man ner. Among the converts at Billy Sunday's Evangelistic services in the big tabernacle in Pittsburgh, last Friday evening, were George Tener, brother of the Governor; Edward B. Bigelow, State High way Commissioner, and John Francis, Warden of the Western Penitentiary. These gentlemen walked down the "sawdust path" were given the right hand of fel lowship, and the regulation card just as those in the humblest sta tion in life. Each will now se lect the church in which he may desire to have a church home. Well, the bustle threatens a gain. Skirts like a Dutchman's breeches, have been getting wid er and wider at the equatorial zone and need something or oth er to keep them from looking as if something had busted her gal luses. And as modeests positive ly refuse to build them any oth er way well, you know just how stubborn a "modeest is." Ex change. Oa account of the drifted roads liev. A. G. li.

Paved streets took the place of dirt roads, a splendid park system was planned and far ad vanced toward completion, modern sewers took the place of open ditches and the people were supplied with an abundance of pure filtered water, in stead of the muddy rawness drawn from a polluted river. Under his ad ministration the volunteer fire depart ment wus reformed and improved, and the police department was taken en tirely out of politics and brought to a state of discipline and efficiency never before approached in Harri.slmrs. Gambling houses, speakeasies and dis orderly houses were closed up and their proprietors sent to prison or into voluntary exile.

WHY FULTON COUNTY A1ERCHANTS SHOULD ADVERTISE IN THE FULTON COUNTY NEW. Written for the ICi'.ws br . I Advertiting Service . J Camden, N. J. A $2,000,000.00 Example, Without a dollar's worth of business in sight, the Ward Bak ing Co. erected and equipped two magnificent bakeries in New York City, at a cost of $2,000,000. They knew the possibilities of advertising and depended upon advertising to make their New York business a success. The result was that in eight months they obtained distribu tion for 050,000 loaves of bread per day. Without advertising those two million dollar bakeries would be accumulating dust and cobwebs, and the two hundred autos used for delivery purposes would be idle. Use the Fulton County News and watch your business grow. James W. Shields, who resides in StoufFerstown, sold a Holstein cow a fear days ago for $100. Now that is a pointer to farmers who keep the common breed. That cow cost no more to keep than those that sell away down in price, but when it comes to swelling the bank account the re ceipts fall far below that obtain ed for Holstein or other of the special breeds. The Biederwolf Evangelistic campaign in Waynesboro lasted five weeks. In that time 2,742 "decisions" were recorded, and the total attendance reached 171, 500. At the final session 185 per sons decided to lead a better life. The freewill olTering to Dr. Bied erwolf on the last Sabbath of the meeting as a token of apprecia tion for the work he did, amount "Tango" I Touch. The Rev. Father J. C. Thomp son rector of St. James' Catholic church, Steelton, Pa., has con demned the tango, hesitation and the other so-called modern dan ces. Father Thompson recently ad dressed a short talk to the young people of his church in which he advised them to refrain from in dulging in any of these dances. Using for his theme, "The Mod ern Dances," he characterized the tango as "the Devil's bait" and asserted that there was little doubt that the modern dances are indecent. Quoting Bishop McGavick of Chicago, the Rev. Father Thomp son said; "There is an epidemic of impurity which has grown and spread in the last few years. This epidemic is shown particu larly in the modern dances which are merely imitations of the an imals. They have descended to that to the animals and worse. The special dance, over which the world seems to have gone mad, is a dance of sin. It comes from the haunts of sin and the houses of infamy. Its his tory is a history of sin." Father Thompson said today. While we never saw the new 'Devil's bait' for souls, called tango (which is Latin for I touch but having made some inquiries we find that the concensus of opinion is that the tango is im moral, indecent and vile and no decent woman would indulge in it under any circumstances." A Good Investment. "How can you afrbrd the mon ey for that?" asked a close-fisted neighbor of mine, years ago, as I was putting a window into the basement of oar house to light up a workbench our children and their mother had planned for their use. I replied; Yes, this will cost $15 to say nothing of the work, but if it, makes the place inter esting for the children, so they can benefit by working with their tools, and keeps them at home in stead of, idling their time else where, mother and I think it will pay." He disdainfully answered; "I don't believe in such noncsense," and went his way. He has had trouble with his children; his boys ran away from home, one of them turned out badly. That our children have done better, mother and I attri bute partly to the little workshop with which we provide them. One of our boys had a small print : ing press down there, and is now in the publishing business. An-' other made a number of handy ! contrivances for use in the home and around the farm, is now in ! the agricultural college, and will return to run the farm. One daughter is married to a good farmer and runs her home better than I do mine, the other is study ing domestic science. i U W.
