A SUMMER RESORT
AT NOME
Danville in a summer resort of no
mean attractions, and it seems cur
ioua that so many of her citizens spend
their holidays idly elsewhere. It is
ftill more curious that so many peo-
Ile believe that they must go away
from town to spend their holidays.
Mont of the healthful joys of vaca
tion can be had without going away
from home. A twenty minute walk
or a drive of a few moments will take
pleasure seekers away from the town
to where they can have private pic
nics amid entrancing scenery. Such
scenery can be found anywhere in this
vicinity, and especially along the riv
er and towards either the North or
South of the town The Danville
citizen who seldom goes beyond the
well kuowu beat from home to work
place and back and sometimes the
way to the lodge ami then rushes out
of town when he gets a vacation,
should take a drive through the county
or a walk along the cycle path to
Mausdale. He will tind nowhere 111
the world more beautiful scenery than
he can view in this section, with lit
tle or no expenditure. Does he crave
mountain and wild wood, let him sea
Blue Hill or Bald Top. No more
picturesque places exist. Anywhere lie
may jjo in this locality nature will be
fouud as beautiful as at any of the
hackneyed summer resorts where cus
tom has heretofore driven him. Strange
that man will travel far for beauty
less attractive than he can find at bis
door.
There are pleasures to be found in
Danville as well as elsewhere. There
is as good an amateur base ball club
here a» can be found outside of the
big leagues. Good games have been
the role and the patrons are well
pleased. The parks are very attrac
li ve places. Oue can always find di
version at these resorts. Music and
dancing can be enjoyed 011 various
nights during the week. Boating and
fishing can also be enjoyed in Dan
ville. Good country roads make rid
ing or driving a thing to be desired.
Those who wish to idle away some of
the time will find the Beaver Library
with its well stocked book shelves at
their disposal. One will always bo
made welcome at the Y. M. C. A
where many pleasant hours can he
spent.
Just try a vaoatiou at home. See if
you don't enjoy yourself as much as
you could elsewhere and for less 111011

BISHOP'S LETTER
ON POPE'S DEATH
la accordance with the custom in
such occasions Bishop Shannon has is
sued a letter to the clergymen and
laity of this, the Harrishurg Diocese,
in regard to the death of Pope Leo
XIII, and the necessary arrangements
for memorial services to he held on
the day of burial of the Pontiff. The
following is the Bishop's address:
To the Venerable Clergy and Belov
ed Children of the Laity :
It becomes our duty to convey to
you the sail intelligence of the death of
the Sovereign Pontiff, Leo XIII. The
common father of the faithful has
closed Ins long career 011 earth. His
children, everywhere, will feel the
loss; even those who do not belong to
the household of the faith will regret
ins demise and will pay their tribute
of respect to the memory of a great
and good man, whose whole life was
consecrated to the moral, religious and
social betterment of the world. Leo
XIII will ever be remembered as the
staunch defend* rof religion, as the
supporter of authority in church and
state, as the advocate of honesty and
fair dealing among individuals and
between nations; as the promoter of
j>eace and good will among moo. Like
St. Paul, he made himself all things
to all men to gain all to Christ.
The death of the Holy Father brings
to us Catholics a grief which is of an
intimate and personal nature. For,
under God, the Pope was the source
of spiritual life and light to us.
Through the instrumentality of bis
priests, we were nourished with the
word ot God and the holy sacraments ;
through tin- medium of his frequent
pastoral letters, we were warned
against dangers which threatened the
individual and civil society; through
the numerous indulgences which he
dispensed, we were encouraged to
practices ot piety ; through the patern
al blessings which ho so lovingly
granted, we were rewarded in our
feeble efforts to secure our own sanc
titlcation and to promote the glory of
God and the salvation of souls. Old
and young held him in their heart of
hearts with deepest reverence and
filial affection.
But the Sovereign Pontiff, like the
humblest of his subjects, had to ap
pear before the judgment seat of God.
He had to give there a strict account
of his stewardship. Let us trust that
he received a favorable sentence from
the Almighty whose vicegerent he was.
But, who is worthy togo immediately
from earth to heaven, and to share at
once the ineffable sanctity of God ?
The Pope may need our poor prayers,
in that prison-house of love, where
even the just are sometimes detained.
Eternal rest give to him, O Lord, and
let perpetual light shine upon him.
We direct that masses of requiem lie
offered up on the day of the Sovereign
Pontiff's funeral,and that the churches
be draped in black to testify the sorrow
of the faithful. Very sincerely in
(-hrist.

Toy Pistol Must Go.
The toy pistol and its deadly re
sults are to be things of history, very
soon, if an act is passed by the Penn
sylvania legislature, which will be re
commended by the State Board of
Health. The Board met Saturday,
with representatives of health boards
of several adjoining states, and the
recent large number of tetanus cases
growing out of Fourth of July acci
dents and the pollution ol Schuylkill
river were discussed. The committee
on poisons and explosives was instruct
ed to prepare an act to prevent the
use of toy pistols by minors.
Tramps are creating a rein of terror
in the lower end of White Deer val
ley, and a posse of armed men, under
the leadership of Constable Newman,
of Lcwishurg.have gone to drive them
out. They surrounded the farm house
of Jos. Beiimge and menaced the place
until daybreak, threatening to burn
the house and murder the family. The
only w« apou of defense Bennige had
was an axe, with which he stood guard
all night. When the tramps moved
away Bennige harnessed his team and,
loading his wife and children in the
farm wagon,drove six miles to a place
of safety.
The stock of raspberries appears to
be diminishing and those now for sale

berries are of superior quality and

KANSAS SMASHER
WAS IN SUNBURY
"Good morning Carrie,how are vou
this morning." This was the slogan
at the Pennsylvania Railroad station
Sunbury,yesterday morning when Cm
rio Nation, the Kansas smasher stop
ped off between trains enroute from
Altooua to Shauiokiu.
When the Lewistown train arrived
ami a lady, fat, fair and over fifty
alighted, piloting a huge grip, the
news soon spread like wild lire that
the irresistible Carrie was 111 town
and soon a large crowd had gathered
expecting something to happen and in
this they were not disappointed.
When Carrie got her hearings and
shook the dust of travel from her
frock, she headed for Stahl's restau
rant opposite the Sunbury station.
After taking care of her indigestion
Carrie dashed herself in the face with
all akp 111 several times and then saunt
ered back to the station and opened
headquarters in the Ladies' waiting
room.
The large crowd followed and at the
proper moment diplomatic Carrie
o|>euod the huge grip and displayed a
number of souvenir hatchets an exact
likeness to the one which the daddy
of our country used when he put his
papa's favorite cherry tree out of the
cherrying business. As is always the
case Carrie soon disposed of all her
souvenirs at the rate of from fi to 25
cents per hatchet, all the while en
tertaiuing tlio crowd with telling them
just how it happened.
The saloon wrecker,wreck crew and
all stated that she had delivered an
address at Altoona Tuesday evening
and was on her way to Shamokiu
where she will hold forth at Edgewood
Park talking to the wicked Shumokin
ites and incidentally disposing of a
few hatchets.
Is It Kindness ?
A new and difficult point has been
raised by the advance of science in
prolonging life,when it is known that
death is inevitable, and that the 10-
sortiug to stimulants is only tempor
ary and adds to the misery of the body
ami soul which seek to bo at rest. The
late Pope entreated toward tlia last
that he be allowed to die peacefully
without any more of the stimulants
whose only oflieo could be to prolong
a little while the mere physical pro
cesses of life. President McKinley,
Queen Victoria, Pope Leo and other
illustrious patients were kept alive for
days by powerful stimulants, though
the malady was known to be fatal,anil
death the inevitable icsult. Cau such
methods be called a kindness? When
there is 110 possibility ot ultimate re
covery, it is a terrible ordeal to wait
tor dissolution. Mete prolongation of
the beating of the heart is not a boon
to be begged when peace is near at
hand. Yet, what physician would
dare do less than fan the feeble spark
as long as it shows even a glimmer?
Though he knows what must happen,
though it is hut a question of days 01
of hours, it he lias within his reach a
remedy that will add to tliein lie could
not reconcile himself to withholding
it; nor would the public acquit liini,
if made acquainted with the facts.
This is coming to be a difficult point
iu practice iu ethics,in humanity. We
shudder when we think of permitting
lite to lapse by ever so small a fraction
short of the time to which it might be
preserved,though that should be but a
cruel kindness. If still more effective
means of stimulation and sustentatiou
are devised, who shall decide in future
when the weary and longing soul may
be permitted to find it> glad release?

Monday's Storm-
Monday's electrical storm was very
severe at Montoursvillo and did con
siderable damage. The house of L. C.
Anderson,oll Jordan street,was struck,
the chimney was entirely demolished
and the bolt entered Mr. Anderson's
room. He is night watchman at the
Heilinan factory and was asleep at the
time. Mrs. Anderson was in the room
taking a screen from the window and
was severely shocked. Mr. Anderson
was thrown out of bed and the bed
clothes were ignited, hilt these were
extinguished quicklv.
From the bedroom the holt went
down the north side of flic house, rip
ping off some nf the weatherboards and
breaking windows. A son of Mr.
Anderson, who was standing on the
front porch, was knocked oil and stun
lied.
The large flag pole on the High
school grounds was struck and split
from top to bottom. The street cars
were stalled for two hours on account
of lightning damage to the switch

For many years It has been supposed thst
Catarrh of the Stomach caused Indigestion

opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re
peated attacks of Indigestion Inflames ths
mucous membranes lining the stomaoh and
sxposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus
ng the glands to secrete mucin instead of
the juices of natural digestion. This la
nailed Catarrh of the Stomach.

"1 have always Intended," said
aldinc she was standing lieslde me 1n
the garden with n rose in her hand
"to test the man I marry. If you
stand the test my answer will be 'Yes;'
If not it will be 'No.'
"In what respect am I to bo t«-sted—•
Integrity, amiability, bravery or uppro
da Hon?"
"Appreciation of what?"
"Your good qualities."
"That thrust is unkind and uncalled
for."
"Don't spoil that rose. You are pull
ing it to pieces as though it had offend*
ed. Hut tiiis b*st I suppose I aw
not to know anything about it before,
hand."
"Of course not; forewarned, fore

"And I must remain in suspense
tnr
"Oh, I shnll not keep you waiting
long. Perhaps I'll get an opportu
nity"—
"lion't give it any; I shall have to
wait all the longer."
Dinner WHS announced and we left
the garden. Guests had lieen Invited
for the evening, nnd by 0 o'clock we
were In the ballroom.
"May I have this dance?" 1 asked of
Geraldine.
"Certainly not. As hostess it Is my
part to look after my guests. I shall
dance with no one tonight."
She hurried away. I was surprised
at her abruptness, but I was more sur
prised later to see her sail by me in a
waltz with the only man I feared as a
rival. Had the little minx not looked
up at me, a plain question on her ex
pressive face as to how 1 would bear
her test, I might not have known I was
being tested.
Bo it is forbearance she wishes In
the man she marries. I will be amia
bility itself.
Seating myself beside nn old friend,
I spent most of the evening with her.
Since I could not dunce with Geraldine
I did not care to dance at all, and my
companion was an entertaining woman
who did not dance. I saw no reason to
change my seat. Geraldine danced the
cotillon and so plastered my rival with
"favors" that he looked like a Spanish
captain general. I bore her slights
with excellent good nature, congratu
lating myself that I was winning the
coveted "Ves."
At last the dancing ceased and the
guests departed. I approached Gerald
ine and begged that she would give
me a short walk on the piazza.
"Thank you, no," she said curtly. "I
am going to bed."
Disappointed, thinking tills a
continuation of the test, I acquiesced
without a murmur.
"(rood night," I said. "A rest will be
beneficial after the responsibility of en
tertaining guests."
"There are more trying things than
entertaining guests."
"Such as?"
"P.elng disappointed in the man
one"—
"What? You have been testing me?
And I have failed?"
"Oh, you stood the test well enough;
too well. People do not really love
who are proof against Jealousy."
"Hut that's what I was to do—bear It
with equanimity, wasn't It?"
"Do you call it equanimity to sit all
the evening with one woman, a mar
ried woman tit that?"
We both stood still, ffrrnhllne with
Hashing eye and heaving bosom, I an
noyed at the turn the affair had taken.
"Gome," I said kindly. "The lights
nre being put out, and we must soon
part. Tell me, sweetheart" —
"It would not be safe to marry a man
who flirts with every married woman
he meets."
"You were not testing me for that,
were you?"
"No; you showed your natural pro
clivity without a test. Heaven knows
what you would do with a Delilah
Hung at you."
Her mother was In the hall waiting
for her togo upstairs. Considering
her dissatisfaction with me, 1 expected
her to do so. Instead she went to a
sofa and sat down. I took n seat be
side her.
"Let us sift this matter," I said, "in
order to learn if you may depend upon
my not showing Jealousy without cause
you decline to dance with me and dunce
several times with another man."
"It didn't seem to trouble you much."
"Did you wish me to show Jealousy?"
"I certainly did not wish you to show
Indifference."
"Very well. 1 think I see what you
mean. Now, per contra, supposing that
in sitting so long beside my old friend
I had been testing your forbearance.
How would you have stood my test'/"
"Admirably. I'm supremely indiffer
ent to your 'old friend.' I don't care
that for her." And she snapped her
fingers viciously.
"To sum up, I stood the test as to
equanimity, but failed by showing nn
Indifference wnich was all apparent,
it only remains for me to prove that I
am not indifferent by a lifelong devo
tion."
This defense moved her. She sat
turning the matter over In her mind
and finally came to the conclusion that
the case was not so desperate after all.
"Altogether," she said, "I think you
have stood my test tolerably well, in
deed if you had tested me in the same
way I don't know that I could have
done much better."
I took her hand and begged her to re
ward tne with the word I so much
wished to hear, and it was not long be
fore she whispered it on my shoulder.

Spoiling appears to mean a great

woman on the car or elsewhere you may
know that she was a spoiled child.
Although poor people do contrive oc
casionally to spoil their children by In
dulitence, by making great sacrifices, tL •«
business is not carried on wholesale, as
it is ntnoiig the rich. Poverty is a set. re
yet kind stepmother. In a large family,

care for the younger ones and ex> rt more

brothers and sisters develops Into the
passionate, dissipated young man.
The spoiled girl becomes nn exacting,
disagreeable woman. The world must
wait upon her, she makes everybody
around her unhappy and all because she
was a spoiled child. Her husband I a

Irritable and fretful disposition, and nil
because her early training was not what

Frank Jay Gould's mother-in-law,
Mrs. Edward Kelly, Is called "the
youngest looking grandmother lu Amer
lea." She does not look over thirty,
and with her jierfcct figure, heavy
dark tinlr and pink and white com
plexion Is the envy of all lu?r female
friends. This Is her own explanation:
"I never worry. I never fret. I ne\ er
argue. I never talk scandal. I never
go without nine hours' t-leep. I take
care of my complexion. My hair Is
brushed for ten minutes a duy. I don't
fltt from tea to reception and from ap
pointments with dressmakers to tire
some dinners with the rush and bustle
of a Wall street man."

There can never l«i too much con
sciousness of being well dressed. It Is
enld to Impart a happiness which reli
gion does not give, and the value of
clothes was even Impressed upon the
heathen, for they declare the art of
w< avitig to be of divine origin. Clothes
lire evidently secrets Into one's charac
ter, for it seems "cut lietokeus Intellect
nnd talent, color reveals temper nnd
heart." So it would l>e well to beware
of eccentric styles and brilliant colors.

"ilow does it hniipen that you alone
of your large family have soft, plump
hands, while nil the others have such
thin, bony ones?" I asked a pretty wo
man. "I'm sure I can't tell why I atn

Is because 1 take more care of mine. I
never wash my hands without nffer
ward rubbing them until they tingle
with it piece of soft white flannel."
