STRENGTH OF COUNTRY MEMBERS I The country contingent in the Leg islator again asserted! its power righteously y«sterday. The niauhiue hail made the paper trust lull ;»u org- j anization mea-mre aud the country | members refused togo sloug for ob vious reasons. In the firr-t place it is a most unjust proposition. Its purpose is to give foreign manufacturing cor porations aqual rights ami privileges witl) sucti corporations cluttered in the State, though tlie home corpora tions are held to greater responsibil ity. Tl»< purpose was to give the pap- , er trust control of some plants located in this State. Representative Ammerman, of Mon tour county, led the attack with a speech of marvelous force and logic and he was supported with equal strength ami eloquence by Mr. Duns- i more, of Tioga. The servants of the machine invoked every expedient to -ave tlie measure, but without sac cess. It was defeated by failure to re ceive a constitutional majority. That is, there were only ninety-four affir mative votes while KM are required Of course there will be an effort made to reconsider tha vote aud save th« bill. But that expectation will be dis appointed if the country members are faithful to each othsr and themselves. Iu view of this proof of their strength however, how can ihe country mem bers themselves to liidiffwi enoe with respect to legislation for personal registration. They know that the politics of the Slate is debauched by electoral frauds in Philadelphia and Pittsburg, and that there can be no substantial improvement in the political morals of the Commonwealth until the frauds are stopped. Yet with the strength to pass the necessary leg islation they fail to do so for some in explicable reason. How will they ex plain to their constituents?—Harris burg Independent. How's This ?

QUESTION OF 1 j INCOME i By BELLE MANIATES CopyngKt, 1904, by Hrlir On "butter day" little Susie Bradley always wiped the breakfast dishes. j She was making but little progress i with that occupation now, however, by ! reason of running to look out the win- i dow every few minutes Although she ' took a handful of silver, u platter or ! a pile of plates with her on each trip. I wiping as she went, she was not keep j ing pace with Itosle, the help, who was | washing the dishes. "I vow, Susie, this is the tenth time j you have gone to that window!" 1 "Ob, I can't wait to see her!" sighed Susie "1 am so afraid the train Is late " : The coming of the city cousin, Kath lyn Randall, was always an event. The visit generally occurred in strawberry or harvest time, but what could have Induced her to come to the farm In November was beyond the combined conjectures of the Randall family. She had written a short note saying she would be there that morning for a long j visit. "Can hardly wait for what. Susls':" asked a manly voice. Susie looked up into the handsome face of Neil Milues, one of the men from the city who were camping down on the river for the shooting season. | It was Neil's turn to come for the milk and butter with which Mrs. Bradley supplied them. "My cousin. She Is coining to visit I lis, and, oh, she is so lovely and wears such beautiful clothes!" M lines laughed and walked ont through the woodshed and across field* of stubble to join ids companions "1 can just Imagine the city cousin," j he thought, "clad In a bargain shirt waist suit and a picture hat from the bazaar at $1.30. overwhelming the coun try folk about here with her style.' " He heard the round of running feet ■ behind and turned, expecting to see a j young colt, but it was Susie "Mother said 1 could go down to the river road and meet them and ride home with theni." "Your cousin will think she has fall en in clover when she hears there are • four young men on the premises." he suggested. "Oh, she has lots of beans," replied Susie loftily "Then she'll be sure to want more Tell her we are all married, will you?" I Susie, however, had caught the I sound of distant wheels and sped ' j quickly away. Mllnes met them rld ; lug in the light wagon, Mr Bradlev and ' j the baggage on the first seat, and Susie ; perched proudly on the back <e«r be side the most stunning looking girl that j he had ever seen. Mr. Bradley reined | tip and presented Mllnes to his niece. Miss Randall, who acknowledged the J Introduction cordially. Then they drove ou, and Mllnes, recalling her 1 tailored traveling coat with the big bunch of violets fastened at the belt, the chic hat and correct appointni«?uts of veil, gloves and purse, also foreign labeled steamer trunk, was amused at his preconception of the "city cousin." He went onto the camp racking his brains for a plausible errand to the farmhouse, but his wits, usually fei tile, refused to suggest. Finally he resolved togo away and await an in splrntion. When he reached the farm ed. was In the kitchen with her aunt. She hardly vouchsafed the young man a glance. "Oh, Mr. Mllnes. what can 1 do for you?" asked Mrs. Bradley. "Why er oil. we want some more 1 butter." he said desperately. "What have you done with all that you got this morning?" she exclaimed. "Well, you see, it's Johnson's turn t » cook, and he uses so much butter!" Mrs. Bradley's eyes twinkled as she got u roll of butter, while Susie giggled outright, and he could see that Miss Randall was amused, though she was quite Ignoring his presence Suddenly it came to him In a flash that Susie had repeated his remarks lie turned togo, and .Mrs. Bradley said good tut turedly: "Susie, go a* far as the bain with Mr. Milnes and show him where to get some cider." On the way out he asked Susie anx iously if she had told what he said "Oh, yes," she replied cheerfully. He groaned. "What did your cousin sa\ ' "She said you didn't look like such a cad" He winced and was silent for a in • 1 metit. Then he said suddenly: "Say, Susie, is her father's name Wellman Randall?" "Yes. I'ncle Wellman is her father. He Is awfully rich Of course he was. Every one knew of Wellman Randall, the successful speculator "I am sorry,' he said half to himself. "Why?" asked Susie indignantly "Uncle Wellman Is lovely." "1 know he is. but I wish he were poor." Such a wish was beyond Susie's un derstandlng, and sin- thought he was Joking All day he loafed and smoked by himself and thought of the vision at the Bradleys At twilight he insist ed that the milk was sour and went up to the house for a fresh supply. By good fortune Miss Itandall was alone In the orchard.

The child sat up in bed. her eyes ! shinintc. "1 love him!" she cried. "Why, Susie!" Thereupon Susie confided the fate of ! the pie and told how he had kissed | and comforted her. The next morning ; when Nell chanced to be strolling In the lane near the little schoolhouse he I met Kathlyn. To his surprise she stopped and spoke to him, smiling graciously. "Susie told uie how good you were to her," she said "Susie's a darling!" he exclaimed, j "And Ray, Miss Randall, If I can help | you i;i the school or anyway" She laughed. "«»h 1 can manage the school all ; right. I understand children." "1 shall come and see how you get on,"he declared. He appeared hi tlie schoolroom the very next day and announced that he had come to "visit." She was pro voked. nut she could not turn him out. She had written some words on the 1 blackboard for the pupils to use in ' Benten.es. She now pointed to the first one, income." "Who can make a sentence and use | that word correctly?" she asked "I>o call on that little fat boy for a j sentence oi he'll wring his hand off." j whispered Nell. j She gave Mi'' youngster the tloor. and he jumped !•> ht< fevt In triumph, veil lug ' j "In come a rat!"

"You had better go now." she said to her visitor "If I'll promise not to come in again may I come every afternoon and row you and Siis c home by the river way?" She consented in ilils arrangement and then«*eforth came halcyon days to Sell and Susie :it least. November vanished, and so did the 1 hunters >ave Neil, who lingered and 1 upon -Mrs Uradley's invitation took up his quarter* at the farmhouse.

The peculiar physiological causes of what is i ,i lied t h> breaking of the voice are not quite understood, but It i.t known to depend immediately upon an organic change in the larynx, the organ of the voice, which occurs in the male sex between the ages of fourteen and sixteen. Before that the larynx of boys resembles that of girls, but when the voice begins to break the vocal chords become lengthened ut least one third. the angle <d' the thyroid cartilage becomes enlarged, and the muscles which connect the organs of the voice with the livT.oid bone and the base of llie tongue become elongated. While the change of form is taking' place the voice is unfitted for singing and should be used only with great, care. In other words, the breaking of the voice is due to the rapid de velopment of the larynx, which takes: place at certain ages and which lead* to a change In the range of the voice. The peculiar harshness of the voice when it is thus breaking seems to be due to a temporary congestion and. swollen condition of the mucous mem brane of the vocal chords accompany ing the >jcti v e growth of XJue whole larynx To Cleim I |» Silver. "They say alcohol will clean silver ttp nicely." remarked the man who ac quires facts. "It will," agreed the red nosed indi vidual. "it cleaned up all my silver." —Philadelphia Itecord. ST.

The old superstition about St. Switb- In and the rain has very generally died, out There are still, however, a good many who incline to the belief that such a notion must have had a basis of scientific fact or It could not have obtained as it has done for centuries. Some years ago the records of Green wich observatory were examined for twenty years with a view to ascer taining whether as a matter of fact a rainy July 15 is usually followed by a rainy period approximating to forty days. It was found that the years In which. Iff Swithln's day had given no rain were rather wetter during the follow ing forty days than other years. It. was concluded that the tradition had no meteorological facts whatever to support It. Everybody has heard the old story about the removal of St. Swithln's bones on July 13 and of the manner in which the saint resented It. by deluging the district. It Is a curi ous fact, but well authenticated, that the good man's bones were shifted from their original, resting place In circum stances of considerable pomp and splendor and without 11 drop of r»in falling The origin of the superstition was probably a terrible flood which In ! 1313 devastated crops.
