Mr. Editor: Many years ago, while
searching the records of tie; Land Of
fice at Harrisburg, the writer of this
article came across a time worn folio,
IS luches in si/e, containing the
original series of maps, outlining the
survey of the canal route from Scran
ton to Northumberland a distance of
79 miles The draftsmen in that earlier
day, about 1828 were not excelled by
the artists of this later period, as is
shown by these old maps. The hill
sides, woods, meadows and streams
are given their conventional signs,
and parallel with the line of survey is
carried a cross section of the cuts and
tills required; the lettering also is
very decorative which adds greatly to
the general aspect of the diawiugs.
At the time of construction the lands
through which the "great ditch" pur
sued its way, belonged to the Mont
gouiery, Foust and Secbler families.
As handed down by tradition an effort
was made by the citizens to run the
course ot the canal between Church
and Mill streets further to the north,
somewhere about Lower Mulberry
street. The object ot this was to avoid
the dividing up of the village into
two separate sections. The effort
proved unavailing and thereafter the
two pa r ts were called respectively
the "North Ward" and "South Ward"
until a later day when the borough
was divided info 1 wards.
In 1868 the canal was widened and
deepened to accommodate heavier
draught vessels. Having served its
day aud generation the "ancient high
way" over which so many millions of
tout of merchandise have been trans
potted has passed away; and those too
who witnessed the exciting days of
construction are no more in the laud
of the living In many places the old
towing path is now being used for
electric railways aud in this place ore
long we shall behold the bed of tin
old caual, supporting a line of sewer
pipe from the Asylum grounds to the
Aqueduct. Though unsightly at pre
sent the abaudoued waterway will he
eventually tilled in, between Iron and
Mill streets, another streetway per
haps created, and then what was once
a great public improvement will have
disappeared, and nothing will remain
save a pleasing memory of the olden
days.

P. 0. S. OF A. FLAG
PRESENTATION
The presentation of (lags to the
schools of South Danville and River
side by Camp 567, P. O. S. ot A.,
which took place Saturday evening
was an exceedingly pleasing event aud
was attended by a large crowd of peo
plti.
The flag presentation was held in
connection with a festival on a vacant
lot adjoining the public school ground
in Riverside borough.
The flags 15 feet by 10 feet, were
procured jointly by Camp No. fillT B.
»> S. of A , and tin; citizens of South
Danville and Riveisido. The presenta
tion took place at !• o'clock. Rev. R.
J. Allen, pastor of St. Peter's M. E.
church, making the address. Rev. Al
len's remarks were thoroughly ap
propriate to the occasion and full of
patriotism and religious fervor. He
eulogized the flag as the symbol of our
j liberties and as belonging to the great
est nation on the face of the earth.
He associated the flag and the Bible
' together as it is only by following the
! teachings of the latter that a nation
I can become humane, great and strong.
| He made an eloquent plea for the
! Bible, which along with the flag he
I said, should have a place in the pub-
I lie schools.
Clarence Yeager on behalf of South
| Danville and Elmer Fowler on behalf
of Riverside borough accepted the
Hags. Immediately following the pre
sentation Stoes' band played "The
! Star Spangled Banner, " which was
; rendered with exceptionally good
effect.
The festival held in connection with
the event netted the Camp a nice lit
tie sum, which will be applied to the
! erection of the new hall. The hand
some cushion chanced off was drawn
by ticket No. 220, which was held by
Mrs. William Mutchler.

Machiuery the Farmer's Friend.
We have read a great deal lately of
the need of harvest hands in the great
Western wheat belt, and the difficulty
of garnering the golden grain. If in
vention had not come to the aid of the
farmer of late years,the country would
either have togo unfed or pay a larg
er price for Hour. 1,000-acre fields or
farms are the rule and not the excep
tion in Kansas,and in adjoining states
The average farm in the East could lie
dumped in one corner of a Western
farm and be scarcely noticeable. A
great deal of the harvesting is done by
contract, and one contractor with his
teams, harvesters, and binders, will
clean up a big wheat field in a couple
of days. But machinery does most of
the work. In the Western wheat fields
the new " treader" cut' s a swath twelve
feet wide. If will harvest forty acres
a day, while a binder harvests only
fifteen acres. The hinder, however,
can be used before the wheat is ijuite
lipe. ll will age in the stack. A com
bination harvester and thresher drawn
by twelve horses delivers the grain in
hags at one side. Some such machines
are run by steam and will harvest
sixty acres a day. Some machines not
only harvest,thresh and bag the grain,
but plough the land behind thum. A
big threshing machine will separate
3,500 bushels of wheat from chaff in
a day. Fifty wagons are needed to
cart away its work. The "cook
shack," a small house on wheels, fol
lows the thresher from farm to farm
in the Western wheat belt, where the
fields often extend miles from the far.ll
house ll is because of our machinery
we can raise wheat cheaper than other
nations, and so can compete for the
feeding of the world. We now learn
that our great cereal is finding favor
in the Orient. One report says that
the popularity of American flour in
China is attracting attention on both
sides of the globe. The British consul
gein ial at Canton, in a report sent
from China to London and published
HI that citv, states that the demand
for Hour among emigrants returned
from tin- United States is so great that
the ijuantity of Hour imported in 1892
exceeded that of 1901 by 95,831,328
pounds, and was nisi some 78,100,000
pounds in excess of the average lot
the past five years Stated in dollars
we are now selling to the Chinese $4,-
r, 01,00(1 worth of Hour annually. In
view of alt this, it is quite likely
wheat will never get below present
prices, and may in a few years creep
towards the standard dollar mark
Potent Pill Pleasure.
The pills that ate potent in their ac
lion and pleasant in effect are lie
Witt's Little Early Risers. W S
Bin I pot of Albany, (in , says "During
a bilious attack 1 took one Small as
it was it did me more good than calo
inel, blue ni iss <,r any other pills I
ever took and al Ihe same time it ef
feet ed me pleasantly. Little Early
Bisers are certainly an ideal pill."

COMMERCIAL
DEPARTMENT
A.s (110 opening of the school term
approaches the commercial department
this year to bo ;i< 1< 1 <-< I to 111>t High
School becomes tin- subject of ;i great
deal of discussion, especially among
tlic stuilcntH and patrons of the school
who urn the most interested.
Borough Superintendent Gorily je
tcrdav stated that lie is afraid there
is some misapprehension as to the
working of the commercial depart
mellt. Some seem to have the idea,
he said.that it is separate and distinct
from the regular High School woik.
lie would disabuse the minds of all
such persons. The commercial course,
the same as the other courses of
study in the High school heretofore
will be elective The courses of study
hereafter will he four in iiuniher—
Classical course, l.atiu Scientific
course, English Scientific course, and
the Commercial course. Cards con
taining these courses of study during
next week will lie sent to every pupil
of the High School. Those entering
the school for the first this year after
a careful perusal are expected to do
ciile which of tie- tour courses they
will take. It will he necessary for par
cuts and pupils to consider the matter
well before coming to a decision, as
there will be no opportunity to change
from one course to another after the
schools are in operation.
In addition to all the subjects com
monly taught HI business colleges the
commercial course will include a num
ber of the blanches studied in the
other courses of the High School.
Following is the < ouiiuercial course in
full:
Freshman Class Business forms and
book-keeping ; commercial arif hniet ic,

ates a studi nt in nine or ten mouths,
hut it comprises merely the mi < lianic
al work of a commercial course. In
the High School the commercial course
will cover a period of four years, the
idea being to give the students a mi nt
al development which will better lit
them for responsible positions in their
liue of work.
The commercial course will he made
as practical as possible. Hverv facility
is being provided for Students will

Splinter Was Fatiil.
Death came as a sweet relief to Mrs
Emanuel Heed,of Trevorfon, the other
day,as during the past three years her
sufferings must have been very severe.
Three years ago the woman ran sev
eral small splinters of wood into the
ring finger of her right hand A
physician removed the slivers and the
wounds seemed to heal.
However, a black speck appeared on
the linger and began to pain Mrs
Heed It was also cut out. When an
other speck appeared an examination
revealed the presence of gangrene or
blood poisoning. The digit was am
putated at the second joint.
The amputation was too late, how
ever. for the poison had reached the
system and was gnawing al the svo
man's vitals. Gangrene set m th«
right foot, the ravage- of the awful
disease causing the woman's toes to
drop oil The liuih al o became ills
eased and mortified from the knee
down.
It spread over the entire body, even
attacking the tongue. Mrs. Reed sul
fered unfold agonies for three long
years and death's icy hand was we|
corned by the stoical sufferer.
The disaese attacked her in a pecu
liar manner and it is believed that the
slivers contained a powerful poison of
a terrifying nature, as the disease dis
closes.
Nervous Headache
Breeds Insanity.
Many a person's whole pleasure HI
life is ruined by the fear of nervous
headaches. Any little excitement, no
matter what, business or social,brings
fhem on. The feet and hands grow
cold, the head is hot, the eyes still,
(lie temples throb, and only in the
quiet of a darkened room is relief ob
tained. This condition must |cheek
ed or it means complete mental ruin.
To those people Dr. A. W. ('base's
Nerve Bills come as a blessing. Tins
do not stop, they cure the headaches.
They do not blanket, they huilil up.
They put tlie nervous system in a
strong, vigorous, sturdy condition a
condition that giv« s one resistive pow
er and enables them to again enjoy
life's pleasures.
Mrs Jacob Mill- of ('or. Front and
Church streets, Danville, Ba., says:
"Last fall I was feeling very badly
run down and nervous. I had frequent
spells ot nervoushaedachesand a good
ileal ot trouble with my stomach. See

A Very Strange Case.
(irville Moore, of Hloonisburg, is
the victim of a most peculiar malady
that is puzzling the physicians in that
locality. Several years ago Mr. Moore
became afflicted with catarrh of the
lu ad, and in course of time the lav
age- of the disease affected one of his
' ears until it became a putrid and
I offensive sore. While in this condi
torn it appears, this organ became fly
blown and the eggs deposited by the
•tl v* hatched out and penetrated the
tliseased ear,causing the man the most
■ intense sutiering.
| Recently his condition became so
serious that au operation was decided
upon as the only means ol saving Ins
life, and this resulted in the removal
ol three good sized, live maggots
, which had buried themselves in the
diseased portion of the ear in there
; giou of the drum. This, it seems, has
afforded the affected man some little
J relief, but his condition vet remains
very critical and his life is despaired
! of. Whether or not the maggots have
| all been removed is not definitely
known, hut as there is only a very
thin membrane geparat ing the drum ol
the ear from the brain and should this
be penetrated there would be no possi
ble chance of saving his life.
During the past few days Mr. Moore
has su tiered untold agony and hi- re
coverv from the strange affliction is
yet a matter of grave doubt.

The Rev. M. 11 Havice, pastor of
Christ's Lutheran church at Milton,
who with others, is traveling in the

Giainl Cauou, Arizona.
The party was following a trail
three feet in width, on one side ot
which was a wall of rock hundreds
of feet high,and on the other an abyss
one thousand five hundred feet deep,
when Mr. Havice s horse trod on a
loose stone and stumbled, (blowing its

Had the animal stumbled the other
direction Mr. Havice would have met
a terrible death on the rocks fifteen
