MONTOUR AMERICAN I' FRANK C. ANGLE. Proprietor. Danville, Pa., Nov. 23. 1905. MINOR MATTERS OF INTEREST M. H. Soiiram and Johnny Mover in Heading over Montour Ridge in search of game have run across the " Huuteis' Spring," sons four mil is below town which has revived a flood of memories iu the minds of old-time nimrods The old spring, which has bet-n nearly for gotten during years, lias aboat 150 yards below the "Devil's Feather bed" an 1 is closely assoaiated with that natoral curiosity. Few persons ever olimbed to the top of the moun tain to view the gigantio cou so of rock on winch lii-> Satauio Majesty ao cordiug to tradition at night stretches his liuohs without qneuchiug their thirst at the "Hunters' Spring" near by. The spring is one of large dimen sions.the water o* which eveu iu sum mer is cool aud refreshing and of the clear and crystal feort associated with a brook od the mountain side. It takes its name from a time-honored ocstom that obtaiued among the hunt ing fraternity of Danville and viciu ity. from the eaily davs of the settle ment. For manv, many years each autumn on the Saturday following the election there was &>i au.iual hunt, in which everybody of any importance in the county skilled iu the use of the gun participated. The dly wound up with a great game dinner at the spring near the "Devil's Featherbed." Ou the morning of the day scores of gunners wouli assemble at different points and start out to hunt over Mon tour Ridge and possibly over the farm land lyiug at its base. While these were bagging pheasants,squirreU,quail &0., which in those days were much more plentiful than now,others of the party were busy building a huge fi»e, installing a capacious gridiron beside the spring an l otherwise getting things iu readiness for the prepara'iou of a feast. About 2 o'clock the hunteis began to come iu —all loaded down with game. It is recalled that on one oc casion there were seventy-five squir rels on hand with phea-ants, rabbits, quail, &c., iu proportion. With the abandance of help on hand the game was soon prepared for cooking Charles Shoals, memory still lingers with ns.wae for many years head cook ou the oocasion aud naturally the feast evolved was a royal oue.

On the subject of GraJgtf Banks, concerning which an article appears on another page, there is much to say both pro and cou. hat just how much good can be derived from such institutions is yet to be learned by ex perience. Iu this line W. P. Hasfiugs. oue of the most conservative experi enced and progressive newspaper edit ors of the State. ha« the following to say iu his Milton Standard of Tues day : John G. McHenry, ot Benton, well known iu this county, aud a probable Democratic candidate for Cougress next year, is oue of the promoters of a system of grange national banks, ! which are to be established in the var ious counties of tiie state where the grange has a strong [membership. It will take a trial to develop whether the plan will be practical Master Hill, of the State Grange, advances the theory that it will "make the in dividual farmer far more prosperous land will give them the use of mouey to finance their own improvements, such as rural telephones, etc." This, sounds all right oo paper, bat how much more will the fanner control Ins money that is deposited in the Grange bank than iu any other institution? Besides banking is a business just as farming or iumberiug or making irou or auything else, and requires a speci al trainwis aud experience to eusare a reasonable degree of success. The writer recalls a period probably thirly five years ago whgu the Grangers started their own sto:es. Hundreds aud tiiousauds of retail stores were es tablished over the country, and were managed as a rule by presumably con servative men with practical busiuess ideas. Ninety-five per cent, of them were failures, and entailed a los«, in some instances, quite ssrious upon "those who promoted them. Tlio bank ing scheme may be all right, but ta our mind, what the farmer needs most ia some legislation in his interest. This he cau get whenever he makes up his mind that he's going to iiave it. $25,000 FOR A STORY And This for Just the American Hagazine Rights for One Publication. Think of it!

It Is lu Greenland that the bunting ability of the Eskimo reaches Its high est development, lie has a fine me chanical skill. Bones, Ivory, stones, a little driftwood, skins and the sinew of the reindeer nre the materials from which he must make his boat and weapons. There la nothing else. Says a Greenland traveler: "Of these the Eskimo builds a canoe. Its frame of bones and driftwood, its covering of translucent sealskin sewed together with sinew. This kaynk is decked over, except for a hole In the middle framed with a wooden ring. The Eskimo wriggles Into this hole, bis legs extend ed Into the fore part of the boat. "Hound hi# waist there is a cylinder of sealskin, the lower edge of which draws over the wooden ring and Is pulled tight with a thong, making all water tight to the armpits. For heavy weather the cylinder Is part of a skin shirt with a hood. Strings tighten tills hood to the face and cuffs to the wrists, while a pair of long sleeved mitts protect the hands and arms. "So rigged a good man can turn his canoe bottom upward and right him self again with sliding strokes of his paddle, for he Is as waterproof as a duck. Moreover, his vessel Is so flexi ble that It is almost safe from being crushed In the Ice drift and, being lim ber, Is extremely swift when propelled by the double ended paddle. "On the other hand, the vessel Is so cranky that only about two-thirds of the native men have nerve and bal ance enough to bunt. Only three or four Danes In all Greenland have dared use a kayak." A PAGAN MYTH. It Linked Mar and Matrimony With I'nhnpplneM and >ll»fortnne. The pagans had a myth that "only bad women marry in May." They had another—that if the marriage did take place the couple would live most un happily, and children born of the mar riage—lf It was not hopelessly rendered i barren by thus slapping the fates in i the face —would be deformed or imbe cile. With prizes like that in prospect It Is not much wonder that the igno rant and superstitious taboo May mar riages, but there is no excuse yet for this idiosyncrasy of thinking people— at least no sensible one. I Ovid was a firm believer In the su- I perstltlon and said that no widow or | young girl would marry in May unless she wished to invite the displeasure of the gods and that the Imprudent wom an who braved their wrath would fill an early grave. Ovid pinned his faith to rosy June, the birth month of June, and when he got ready to launch his daughter on the matrimonial sea he studied the stars and all the supersti tions to make sure that he would not run upon Scylla In steering off Charyb dls. Resolved to match the girl, he tried to find i What days unprosperous were, what moons were kind. ! After June's sacred Ides Ills fancy stray ed- Good to the man and happy to the maid. THE TREE KILLER. ' A Cnrtoun Vine That PlonrlahM In Unrr Central America. One of the curious forest growths of the Isthmus of Panama and lower Cen tral America in general is the vine which the Spaniards call matapalo, or "tree killer." This vine first starts in life as a climber upon the trunks of tiie large trees, and, owing to its niarvel ously rapid growth, soon reaches the lower branches. At this point it first begins to put out its "feelers" —tender, harmless looking root shoots, which soon reach the ground and become as firmly fixed as the parent stem. These hundreds of additional sap tubes give the whole vine a renewed lease of life, and it begins to send out its aerial ten drils in all directions. These intwine themselves tightly around every limb of the tree, even creeping to the very farthermost tips and squeezing the life out of l>oth bark and leaf. Things go on at this rate but a short while before the forest giant is compelled to suc cumb to the gigantic parasite which Is sapping its llfeblood. Within a very few years the tree rots and falls away, leaving the matapalo standing erect and hollow, like a monster vegetable devilfish lying upon its back with its horrid tentacles clasped together high In the air. A Chapter Of Accident*. It was the upper deck of a London bus. A passenger, a dignified person age, lighted a cigar and threw the match, as he supposed. Into the street. A few seconds later he was surprised to find that his umbrella was on fire. At the same Instant a sharp gust of wind opeued it and carried it, like a flaming parachute, through the air. Making a sudden grab after his truant property, the passenger overbalanced, plunged headlong over the omnibus rail and after turning a somersault landed upright on the road unhurt. Praetleal Preparation. "I'm surprised that you favor higher education," snld the visitor to the vil lage blacksmith. "Well, the colleges are improving." explained the man of brawn. "Time was when they didn't teach nothing but book learning, but now by the time my son gets through the athletic course he'll be fit for a first class blacksmith." - Detroit Free Press. Trouble on Another Score. Doctor—When can you pay me my bill for curing you of insomnia? Pa tient—l don't know, doc. I sleep so soundly now that my wife goes through my pockets most every night ami takes every th ing—lJ fe Evolution of the Dayunet. The sweynes-feather (hog's brisflet, which seems to have been the original prototype of the bayonet, was a long rapier blade, fixed in a handle and car ried in a sheath, which was given to a inusketeer for defense after he had dis charged his piece. Stuck by its handle In the muzzle of his gun, it constituted a very efficient weapon for acting against pikeinen. To diminish his in cumbrance the sweynes-feather and musket rest were combined, the latter i forming a sLeath for the former, in the i of James I. Toward the latter part of the civil war the use of the musket rest was aban doned, and it became the practice to stick the dnjrger by its handle into the muzzle of the piece sifter discharging it In IGBO two ring's were added h.v which the bayonet was placed on the muzzle without interfering with the firing. This improvement, the Inveu tion of General Mackay, an English oflieer, was introduced into the French army by Vauban in 1703. ISy the Eng llsh themselves it was not adopted tin til after th> battle of Fontenoy (1745), where the advantages its use conferred nn the French were only too painfully manifest, the Duke of Cumberland's army being defeated with the loss of 15.000 ux-d - Pearson's Week I v OLD TIME SERVANTS. Pt-liM llnd Trouble-* of Ill» Own wHli IIIM MCIIIUIH. Perhaps one reason why servants in Pepys' time were treated as "cue of the family" was that they very ofteu ■were blood relations. The diarist him self, in fact, engaged his own sister Pauline as his servant, "which she promised me she could, and with many thanks did weep for joy." For all that, lie would not ' let her sit down at the table with me, which 1 do at first that she may not expect it hereafter from me." Her temper, however, made the arrangement impossible, and Pepys had to engage somebody else Instead. "It being a great trouble to me that I should have a sister of so 111 a nature that I must be forced to spend money upon a stranger, when It might be bet ter upon her if she were good for any thing." It is only within a century or so that servants have ceased to be rela tions of the family and the term "menial" has come to be considered derogatory instead of meaning simply "within walls"—intra moenia. In the old days all women between twelve and forty and all men between twelve nnd sixty without means of subsistence could be forced by two justices togo into domestic service; hence the fact that when a man married his cook, as he often did, he was extremely likely to marry some one above him In sta tion. as we understand distinctions of class nowadays. This also explains why a lady would refer to her maid as her "gentlewoman" and a marfter to his valet as his "gentleman." INLAND BATHING. It Fomlshe* One of the Senmiou* Dellghta of Existence. Quiet Inland bathing offers you no extravagant opportunities to be a poseur. If the water Is warm, you 101 l In it at your ease; your mind Is soon stupefied by the sensuousness In which you are infolded; the interest of your sleepy eyes does not extend beyond the gentle ripples that widen away from the slow, submerged Btrokes of your arm 9. After awhile you roll over on your back and drowsily execute at Intervals a languid "shoe fly" leg mo tion, while you look drowsily up Into the void. Now and then you will raise your arms and flap them down through the water like a pair of sweeps. It is only a tired sort of effort, and Anally, In the supreme abandonment of indo lence. you lay your head back—far back—until the water creeps up about your eyelids. You stretch out legs and arms motionless and lie, breathing tranquilly, sensible of no other move ment in the world than the slight flux j and slip of the water upon your heav ing chest. Then may you realize per haps something of the lark's sensation when, with wings outspread, it hangs suspended between earth and sky. He who has never thus suspended himself Idly in still water, with fathoms below him and infinity above, has not expe rienced one of the sensuous delights of existence. Unfortunate man who goes to his grave believing that there is nothing better than bed for weary limbs and Jaded brain!— Arthur Stan wood Pier In Atlantic. nark l« EiiglUh Fairs. For the origin of the modern circus one must go back to the English fairs of the seventeenth, eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Unlike the American county fairs of the present day, which are more In the nature of live stock exhibitions, the early Eng lish fair was a rout of dancing, fid dling. drinking, fighting, wrestling and bull baiting a gathering, as it were, of merry andrews, monstrosities, bul lies, Jilts, tight rope walkers, acrobats, contortionists, equestrians, mounte banks, grimacers, scaramouches, thieves, pickpockets, idlers, beggars, fortune tellers, gypsies and those upon whom they prey.—E. S. Ilallock in Century. HE TOOK LONG CHANCES. Bat thr Tailor'* Anxiety and Bill Wfrc Both Finally Settled. The doctor of an English regiment stationed in India received a letter from his tailor Inclosing a long overdue account and concluding with a polite Inquiry after the debtor's state of health. The sawbones replied thus; "I have received your hypocritical letter hoping that I am In a good state of health Hear, then, what your chances of my living long enough to be able to pay your bill are. I attend assiduously every cholera case In the camp, and I am making smallpox a special study. I swim every morning in a lake swarming with alligators. At a recent attack on a hill fort I went with the forlorn hope and was one of the three who returned unwounded Tomorrow morning I shall go unac companied and on font Into the Jungle and wait for the man eating tigress as she returns at dawn to her cave and cubs. If It be she who falls I shall spend my leave In the fever haunted Jungle following up big game, and If I survive that I shall cool myself after Its heat by joining a party to ascend the peak of Dhawalagirl, whose sno* slopes and glaciers are as stiff as your prices " The doctor eventually returned bomw In safety, and the tailor's anxiety and his bill were both settled.
