contain subscribers addresses.

offices not by names. Then, al
so, two names may be alike, and

run the risk of crediting money

Joseph Kalbfus, Secretary of
Game Commission, has sent out
notices that those who have in
the past been in the habit of ad
vancing money to bounty claim
ants are warned not to continue
this practice, as no claim will be
certified by his office to the Au
ditor General for payment except
in the name of the party making
the affidavit to the killing. This
covers the ground in cases where
Justices of the Peace have some
times advanced money to the
claimant, and since all payments
are now made directly from the
Harrisburg office, too much con
fusion 13 occasioned when two
parties must be considered the
one making affidavit for having
the animal, and the one claiming
the bounty.

The Community and the Bank.
When outside capital seeks an investment in any section, the first thing investigated is the condition of the
banks.
The larger the deposits and the better the facilities, the more stable the community appears to the outsider.

large. This policy has enabled us to offer banking facilities far in advance of many larger towns.
Our home people appreciate the protection and security we offer for their savings. Our large CAPITAL AND

ther we carry BURGLAR, HOLD-UP, and FIRE INSURANCE to protect EVERY DOLLAR m our vaults.

JUST A WORD TO
Y O U
There comes a time when you, as with every other person,
need something in our line, and that means about everything a
farmer or housekeeper needs. It may be a jacknife or a mow
ing scythe, a necktie or a suit of clothes, a row of pins or a pair of
shoes a penny purchase or a fifty-dollar purchase.
KEEP THIS IN MIND
That when the time comes we are here to serve you -and we
guarantee that both quality and price will be eminently satisfac
tory to you.
We did sell some sweet corn this season,, and could have
sold more, if we could have procured it; and we are sorry that we
could not fill all the mail orders we got. -
Garden Plows and Lawn Mowers.
We made menlion of these two articles in our last advertise
ment; and, up to this time we have sold 20 garden plows and 15
cadet mowers. If you do not have these two articles on the farm,
buy them at once. You can save money by using a Garden Plow.
You can do the work in one-third of the time. Price of plow $1.98;
Mowers, $2.50 and 2 65.
MOWING MACHINE OIL.
We are supplied with these goods again. Quite a lot of peo
ple have asked whether we were going to handle the same oil
that we had before, and they say they have never used a better
one. The price is the same as before 25 cents a gallon. Grain
rakes 23 cents, Batcheller Wheat, Manure, Oats, and Pitch Forks
38 to 75 cents. Rivets 5c. to 18c. a box. Mowing machine oilers
8 to 15 cents.
SHOES THAT WEAR,
Remember that if you want shoes that wear,
we have them; and as we are talking about
harvest goods, we have a good harvest shoe
that will not hurt your feet Boy's $1.90;
Men's $2.00 and $2.25, Call and see the
largest stock of shoes in town. Thanking
you for the largest spring trade we have ev
er had, we remain yours for business. "-.

DEALER IN -:-
High Grade Plain Pianos, Player
Pianos, Organs, Victrolas, Rec
ords, and Professional Tu
ner, McConnellsburg,
Nothing adds more to the refinements Qf home than
good music. To have good music you must have a good
instrument. There are good bad and indifferent instru
ments, and to the unskilled eye they look, much alike.
The unprincipled dealer is likely to make you pay a
first-class price for a fourth-class instrument. I have
lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and
in a position to make good any business transactions.
Buy your piano, organ, or victrola trom me and if it is
nofall right you can come back at me.
There are families in every part of this county that
have purchased instruments from me. Ask them about
me. v
Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano,
or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See
me. Let's talk it over.
L. W. FUNK.
