Republican Papers Compliment Harris. The comments on the candida cy of Geo. A. Harris for Cong ress, in many of the Republican papers throughout the District, show how well he is being re ceived and the clean, dignified campaign he is conducting. The Huntingdon New Era a Republican daily paper says in speaking of Mr. Harris' visit to Huntingdon "Among the visitors to Hunt ingdon today and yesterday was Geo. A. Harris, of McConnells burg, Pa., Democratic candidate for Congress. Mr. Harris is president of a bank and a keen self made business man. He is fine looking and makes an im pression wherever he goes. A bout the worst that can be said of him is that he is a follower of Woodrow Wilson of whom we Republicans do not approve. "Harris himself is modest in his claims, but his followers in sist he has a good chance to win out this year. Some of them even have the nerve to say he is going to win. The Twice-a-Week Republican of Mount Union says: "Geo. A. Harris, candidate for Congress from this District, is a gentleman whom any man may vote for and feel that he will not regret hav ing done so." Wherever Mr. Harris has gone he has made votes by his quiet and nuassuming manner, and fair discussion of the important is sues of the campaign. He does not talk about his op ponent and very little about him self. He asks every-nne to famil iarize himself with the legisla tion passed during the pat two years, that effects the business man, the farmer and the laborer; and he insists that if the voters will do this, they will find that his opponent has been opposed to all progressive legislation in the past Adv. Sheridan Hann, one of Belfast township's successful farmers, accompanied by his daughter, Miss Etta, spent last Friday in in town. Buckwheat has been a successful crop with Mr. Hann this season, he having threshed 100 bushels from four acres. Some of the straw was six feet in length. He has, also, an abundance of fruit. A limb on ore of his apple trees li inch at the but, and i inch at the top, produced f6 perfect apples hav ing a combined weight of 21 pounds. Mrs. Emory Booth returned to her home in Altoona Thursday of last week after having spent three weeks very pleasantly at her former home in this place. She was accompanied as far as C h am be rsburg by Miss Mary Knauff, Mrs. M. Mclntyre and Mr. William Hull. WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS The nervous system is the alarm system of the human body. In perfect health we hanlly renlize that we have network of nerves, but when health is ebbing, when strength is dcclin lug, the same nervous aysti-in gives the alarm in headaches, tirolness, dreamful sleep, irritability and unless corrected, leads straight to a breakdown. To correct nervousness, Scott's Emul sion it exactly what you should tike; its rich nutriment Rets into the blood and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while the whole system responds to its refresh ing touic force.
