Ia his proclamation, issued last week, the Governor gives some interesting facts concerning the ben efits growing out of the observance of Arbor Days. He says : "The cus tom of annually filing a day to be celebrated as Arbor Day has sprea 1 into every section of the country. The value of these celebrations has been abundantly manifest. In tht State which claims the honor of hav ing originated Arbor Day more than three hundred and fifty million trees were planted during the first five years. "Sohool grounds have adorned, the surroundings of the home have been beautified, public parks have been multiplied and the landscapes and charming scenery of Pennsyl vania may yet be made still more at tractive. We are rapidly passing from a destructive to a constructive policy. We have learned the lesson that trees and forests are essential to our continued prosperity and that he who plants a tree, whether boy or man, is a publio benefactor." Money Put Into Circulation. Tbo Honosdale Herald recently received a $ from a farmer for sub scription account. The editor past ed a small tag on the bill for identi fication and immediately paid it out and detailed a reporter to keep track of the note for the rest of the day. The reporter followed the bill on its travels and at night reported that it had paid eighteen different debts amounting in all to $90 and, strange to relate, was again, in the posses sion of the farmer who paid it to the Herald man in the morning. ..This is another i)lus.tratjqc of, the fact that thore is money enough if peo ple would only pay what they owe, as near as possible, with what they have, instead of hoarding it. Or. Swallow's Testimony. What Rev. Dr. Swallow gave in his testimony on Saturday : Paying gUOO fo putting up a flag polo at Scotland school, altho anoth er mail offered to do it for 110 ; Keepiug a biir-rooin tit the same school by its managers , Giviug officiul lloyer $23 bonus ou a contract ; Getting live sets harness for two horses, cost 257 ; Buying two horses for $330 for Scotland school which were not worth over 100. And Swallow has more of these fellows to swallow. Representative Herman Wins a Victory. From Fochfa I.ewlabuig News- By a vote of 92 to 78 t.he House on Tuesday killed a bill increasing the minimum school term in the State from six to soven months. This measure has been up at every ses sion for ten years and has always boon knocked out by the rural mom bors. Twelve years ago the term was increased from five to bix mouths aud no legislation on this poiut has since been enacted. Mr. Herman, of Snyder, led the opposi sition and won after a hard and de termined fight. The bill was called up for third reading and final pas sage by Chairman Hammond, of the education committee). Air. Seyfort, of Lancaster, started a loug discus sion with an earnest speech in favor of the proposition. He showed that twenty seven other states in the Union have longer school tonus than Pennsylvania and that twenty eight per cent, of the schools in this State are only kept open six months year. He spoke of the greatness of Pennsylvania in everything but her educational facilities and declarod an increase of one month a year in the school term would make very little difference in the taxes. Mr. Herman replied to Mr. Soy fort and was followed by Mr. Martin, of Lawrence, ana other rural mem bers. The discussion lasted nearly two hours and was closed with an earnest plea for the.bill by Chairman Hammond. THOSE WHO ARE MOVING. From Hellnsgnvc Times. Norton Crouse to his farm in Peun township.

Thin, Pale Children One satisfaction in giving; Scott's Emulsion to children is they never object to it. The fact is, they soon become fond of it. Another satisfaction is because it will make them plump, and give them growth and prosperity. It should be given to all children who are too thin, or too pale. It does not make them over-fat, but plump. It strengthens the digestive organs and the nerves, and fur nishes material for rich blood. We have a book telling you more on the tObject.

A wotn in ha I brought suit against a neighbor far daoiago to her corn by his caUlo.

They have won their day's bread, but some duties arc yet to be performed, and many personal mat ters to be attended to. They have mending to do, and dresses or bonnets to make, and long into the night they toil, for they must look neat, and they have no time during the day to attend to personal matters. Women, therefore, notwithstanding their delicate organism, work longer and more closely than men. They do not promptly heed such signs as headache, backache, blues, pains in the groins, bearing-down, "all gono" feeling, nervousness, loss of sleep and appetite, whites, irregular or painful monthly periods, cold and swollen feet, etc., all symptoms of womb trouble, which; it not quickly checked, will launch them in a sea of misery. There is but one absolute remedy for all those ills. Any woman who has to earn her own living will find it profitable to keep her system fortified with this tried and true woman's friend. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound Bpcedily removes the cause and effects a lasting cure. We are glad to produce such letters as the following from Miss M. O. Me Namce, 114 Catherine St., Utica, N.Y.: " For months I had been afflicted with that tirod feeling, no ambition, no appetite, and a heavy bearing-down feeling of the uterus. I began to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound. Soon those bad feelings pnssed awuy ; I began to have more ambition, my appetite improved and I gained rapidly in every way, and now I am entirely well.
