Those who have followed Alva Agee's teachings have, doubtless, notic ed that he invariably recommends about two pounds of red top along with every pound of timo thy seed when the crop is want ed for hay. Also, that he near ly always sows some alsike along with the red clover. Mr. W. T. Lesher, of Phila delphia, is taking a month's re creation among the Kendall fam ilies and others, in the Cove. Mr. Lesher devotes some time to the study of genealogy and his torical subjects and may write something interesting for the News readers concerning the history of the Old Packers' Path that followed the general course of what is now the Lincoln Highway. WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS The nervous system is the alarm system ft the human body. In perfect health we hardly realize that ytt have a network of nerves, but when health is ebbing, when strength is declin. ing, the same nervosa system Rives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful ttrp, irritability and unless corrected, J ads straight to breakdown. To correct nervousness, Scott's Bmul i 'on is exactly what you should take; its 3 ich nutriment gets into the blood and : ich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while i iie whole system responds to its refresh ing touic force. It is free front alcohol, bwtl k Buwtie. filwmiiclU, M. J. Wanted, For Sale, For Rent, Lest, Found, Etc. RATES One cent per word for each Insertion. No advertisement accepted for less than 15 cents.

Too Much Gold. It sounds odd; but it is true, nevertheless, that Europe has snt so much gold to the United States to pay for war material that financiers see trouble ahead for us if some other means of paying for the goods cannot be devised. Merchants in America, and merchants in Europe, have been accustomed to settle with each other by striking a balance through the medium of exchange bankers. This country is ship ping so much merchandise to Eu rope that the balance is nearly ail on our side, and we may have to begin buying back American securities that formerly brought capital to this country. Notice to District Presidents.

Few Print Liquor Ads. According to carefully compil ed statistics, the number of news papers and magazines in the Unit ed States that now refuse liquor advertisements, has increased over 50 per cent, during the past seven years.

FUNK -:- DEALER IN -:- High Grade Plain Pianos, Player Pianos, Organs, Victrolas, Rec ords, and Professional Tu ner, McConnellsburg, Nothing adds more to the refinements of 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. 1 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 from me and if it is not all 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. 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.
