Preparing For Fourth of July
Fatalities.
The 69 antitoxin stations throughout
the Commonwealth have received
their supplies from the Department of
alth and are ready to meet the
usual Fourth of July demands.
The antitoxin will be furnished to
the poor without cost and the stations
are so located that every part of Penn- |
sylvania is within easy reach of one.
1t is essential that the tetanus anti-
toxin be administered within 24 to 48
hours after the wound had been inflic-
ted.
Any physician can secure an immu-
nizing dose of 1500 units from apply-

Commissioner of Health says:
Do not consider any such wounds
trivial. send for a physician at once.
If it is impossible to promptly secure
his attendance. wash out the wound
thoroughly with hot, boiled water,
remove every particle of foreign mat-

Suffragette Notes.
The Pennsylvania College Equal
Suffrage League launched its summer
egmpaign in Medias, Delaware County
last Saturday. A number ef speakers
including Mrs. Helen Hoy Greeley,
lawyer and suffragists, addressed the
Saturday afternoon crowds in Court
House Square from a large touring
ear in which they had motored out
from Philadelphia. In the centre of
the state, Belfonte Suffragists are
busy preparing to take part in a‘‘Safe
and Sane Fourth’? demonstration, of
which Miss Elizabeth Blanchard is in
charge. Western Pennsylvania suffra-
gists are devoting their attention to a
suffragists pageant in connection with
the Perry Centennial Festivities, The
Liberty Bell Float. which made such
hit in Washington on March 3rd, will
be a striking feature of the Erie
parade. Mrs. H. Neely Fleming, of
Erie, is in charge of arrar gements.
Buffalo, N. Y., will send a delegation
of fifty marchers, and it is expected
' that many suffragists from Ohio will
join the general ranks. .
HIGH COST OF LIVING.
The ‘‘Congressional Lobby’? inquiry
has brought to light evidence that the
insiders in the Beet sugar Trust added
clamor that high duties must be main-
tained in order that the corporation
might be able to pay dividends on the
entire ‘‘investment.”’
What have the housewives to say
about this? It is they who pay the
taxes and who must cope with the
“high cost of living”’ whieh it brings.
INDEPENDENCE DAY.
On July 4, Illinois women will cele-
brate their first Independence Day by
a big outdoor demonstration in Chi-
cago which is expected to show not
only the thankfulness of the women
for the granting of the franchise, but
also their pride in Illinois as the first
State East of the Mississippi to open
the doors of suffrage so wide to women.
Goyernor Dunne, when asked his opin-
ion of the suffrage victory, said “This
means a triumph for clean politics in
Illinois.”’

at Boston by a fall of slate.
McKeesport. — Frank Flood of Me
Keesport was committed to jail by
Squire J. Clyde Miller of Homestead
on charges preferred by: Mrs. Annie
Fey, a widow, of Dughesne. He was
brought here from Cleveland. Mrs.
Fey, when her husband died, some
time ago, had considerable property.
Flood persuaded her to go to Cleve
and, where they were to be married.
There, she says, be induced her to
invest her money in an enterprise
which proved a failure. Then she
learned that he was a married man.
Johnstown.—Howard Sutton Wagon-
er, who left Johnstown in an effort
to go to New Orleans in a boat of his
own construction, has been compelled
to abandon his trip because of ill
health. He was informed by physi-
cians that he was suffering from ty-
phoid fever at Ripley, O., and gave
up his effort to reach the Gulf.
Jeannette—The record flight of a
homing pigeon from Rio Janeiro, Bra-
zil, is. reported by Stephen Krupa, al
local fancier. Last April he shipped
“Sunny Jim” and two other racing
pigeons to a Rio Janeiro fancier, who
liberated them in the public square
of Rio Janeiro on May 8. “Sunny |
Jim” put in an appearance here azter|
48 days’ flight. Krupa declares that |
a pigeon never before “homed” from a
point below the equator. : On several
occasions ecomtinental and American
fanciers have shipped homing pigeons
to distant points in Africa and South |
America, but no bird heretofore has
been able to make its way through the
equatorial regions on account of the|
extreme heat. The air line distance |
from Rio Janeiro tc this city is about
4,200 miles, nearly half of the dis-
tange being over water.
Sunbury. — Mrs. Peter
Milton, mother of Cliff Beaver of this
city, died from heart failure when she |
heard that her son-in-law had been |
called to Williamsport, where her |
daughter was in a hospital. The-in-|
formation stated that his wife had
recovered and that he was to bring
her home to Milton. The mother mis-
interpreted the news and believed that
her daughter had died. She swooned

Middleburg.—During a severe elec
trical storm in this section the house
of William Newman, at Fremont, was
struck by lightning. The entire gable
end was destroyed and the summer
kitchen torn from the main house.
The plaster was broken from the

fire. A baby six weeks old was
stunned, but was revived with the
assistance of & physician after an
hour’s work. None of the other oc-

was killed by lightning while at work
in a fleld of his farm near Youngs-
ville. Crippen was dragging a plowed
fleld when the storm broke and the
lightning struck him, killing him and
one of the horses he drove. When
he did not return home, investigators
found his body. It was burned a deep
purple and a hole in the forehead
showed where the bolt had entered,
passing completely through him and

three children.

CHILD MOSES SAVED FROM
DEATH.
ASS
—
GOLDEN TEXT Whoso shall receive
one such little child in my name receive
eth me.’ Matt. 18:5
The prosperous favor of the king's
court did not last long for the de-
‘scendants of Jacob, and a Pharaoh
arose “who knew not Joseph” (1:8).
In chapter 1:7 we see that.Israel was.
(a) “fruitful,” (b) “increased in num:
bers,” and (c) “exceeding mighty.”
"This was in fulfillment of God’s prom-
ised blessing (Gen. 12:2, 3). It ex-
cited the envy of the Egyptians, how-
ever, and they began to “deal wisely”
(v. 10), see I Cor. 1:19, and eventual
1y Pharaoh promulgated his iniquitous
deeree recorded in Ch. 1:15:21
Child Unheralded.
1. The Child Born, Ch. 2:1, 2. Pha-
rach’s cruel scheme seemed well
adapted to avoid the supposed danger
in that it would cripple Israel, keep
them in slavery and effectually pre-
vent them from escaping from Egypt.
Mow frequently man is deceived. A
‘babe is born in the home of the rich
or the great of earth and we speculate
upon the possible ensuing changes in
history, whereas at that same time
another child is. born unheralded in
some humble home that God raises
up to set aside the schemes of men.
Attention has been called to the hum-
ble marriage (v. 1) of Amram and
Jochebed (ch. 6:20) and the import-
ant outcome. No marriage is trivial.
It does not appear that to cast the
male children into the river was an
edict when Aaron was born. Though
humbly born Moses was nobly born
and his parents thought more of their
duty to God than the edicts of man.
Moses was a “godly child” (v. 2, Acts
7:20 R. V. marg. and Heb. 11:23 R.
V.). That is, he was without blemish,
well pleasing to the eye, “fair to God.”
the hope that he was to be the deliv
erer of Israel and taught him so to
believe, see Acts 7:25.
1. The «Child In Danger, vv. 3-6.
At three months of age (Acts 7:20) it
was no longer possible to hide the
child Moees. However, instead of his
being cast Into the river he is cast
upon the river. Jochebed knew of the
delivers: ce of Noah and it is prob-
able that her meditation upon this
suggested to her the adopted plan, for
she made her ark somewhat after
the lan Noah followed, Gen. 6:14.
She also knew of the. habits of Pha
rach’s daughter and planned accord
ingly. It was a perilous risk to com-
mit her child to the crocodile infested
| river, but she trusted Jehovah (Heb.
11:23) and God honored her faith, as
events demonstrate.
God’s Plan. .
It seems a trivial incident for this
daughter of a king to indulge in a
bath and to find this rude pitch cov-
ered ark at the river's brink. Yet
who can comprehend His ways? She
sent one of her servants to investi
gate. Seeing so many strange. faces
‘the child begins to cry; how very
ordinary, yet how wonderful when
considered as a part of God's plan for
the redemption of a race. ;
ill. The Child Delivered, vv. 7-10.
From the monuments of Egypt we are
able to study Pharaoh and his court.
‘His word was supreme. At this op
portune moment under God's direc
tion, the cry of a child is used to set
aside Pharaoh’s word and to turn the
course of history. The tears of the
babe found their way into the heart
‘of this princess of the royal house and
thus the deliverer came from the sys-
tem from which he was to set his
brethren free. God knew that among
those frivolous Egyptian slaves there
was none properly fitted to care for His
own. So it is that the waiting sister
oltered to secure a Hebrew woman
to care for the child, perhaps accord-
ing to a prearranged plan with her
mother. © The plan is successful and
the Very best nurse possible was se-
cured. The only nurse properly fitted
and God-endowed for the rearing of a
child is its own mother. Perhaps it
was Pharaoh’s infamous decree that
led his daughter to send her new-
found treasure away with a Hebrew
woman with the promise of wages
(v. 9). At any rate, Pharaoh is set at
naught in his own household and his
edict worked a blessing to Jochebed.
It was most certainly during these
plastic years that Moses was instruct-
ed concerning God, Abraham and
Isaac and God’s covenant to these the
fathers of his race, and to look for-
ward for Him who should deliver
Israel. See Acts 7:25 and Heb. 11:24
26.
God providentially separated the
Israelites from intermarriage with the
Egyptians, a fact which saved them
from deterioration and effeminacy.
The absolute impossibility, humanly
speaking, of their deliverance enabled
| God to end their affliction and de-
liver to them His promised inheri-
The hour has now arrived for
deliverance, all that is needed is a
leader and in His cwn way He is pre-
paring that leader. Moses Was neith-
er killed nor enslaved. The venture-
some faith of Moses’ parents in spite
of all appearances preserved the life
of their babe.

For Good Roads.
Harrisburg, Pa., June 28.—Having
passed finally the act for submitting
to the people next November the pro-
position to amend the constitution so
that $50,000,000 can be borrowed for
the construction of roads, the Legis-
lature will give its attention to mak-
ing provision for the improvement
and maintenance of the roads of the
State. The allowances for this work
are to be taken care of in the general
appropriation bill, and on the action
within the next fortnight will depend
the development of highways in
Pennsylvania for the next two years.
Following the approval of the peo-
ple of the proposed issuance of bonds,
the next Legislature will have to
enact the formal authority for sale of
bonds, prescribing in what amounts
they shall be issued. Hence. the
sums for the road construction and
maintenance must be taken care of
out of the revenues of the State for
1913 and 1914.
The item for construction of high-
ways is arranged at $4,000,000 and for
repair work at $2,000,000, the allow-
ance for State-aid work, by which
the State pays one half when a coun-
ty and borough or township petition,
is to be made $1,000,000 and a like
amount is scheduled to be given for
the development of township roads.
These amounts, in addition to the
allowance for maintenance of the de-
partment, must all come from the
revenue of the State, wich will nec-
essarily reduce
other purposes. If the bond issue
could be authorized contingent upon
approval by the people over half of
