PATIENTS TAUGHT
NOT TO COUGH
The report of the tuberculosis dis
pensary for the mouth ending August
20th shows that there are twelve pati
ent:- receiving treatment, the largest
number yet enrolled. Aided by the
painstaking and detailed reports sent
in by Dr. Stock, chief of the dispens
ary, Dr. Dixon is closely iu touch
with the work, which is now moving
on with a momentum that assures tie
accomplishment of much good.
Two new patients have been added
during the month. Of the entire num
ber receiving treatment only eight are
in active attendance at the dispensary.
Others are bedridden. Oue of the pati
ents is a mere child.
Miss Geddes.the trained nurse,made
thirty-two visits during the last
month. She is gratified with the ap
preciation shown by the patients of
what she is able to do for them in the
oapacity of nurse, which, of course,is
a part of the free treatment given by
the State. As a general thing the rigid
rules laid down by Dr. Dixon for ob
servance are followed implicitly by
the patients and the families in which
he latter reside.
During the last month six patients
showed a combined gain of ll. 1 ., pounds
one patient gaining as much as 4J.j
pounds. One patient, the worst cas6
under treatment at the dispensary,
showed a slight loss in weight. Iu
one, the weight remained stationary.
During the month orders were issued
for 73 dozen eggs and 106 quarts of
milk.
* The dispensary gives out or prescri
bes very little medicine. The treat
ment rather consists of the application
of rules and regulations to prevent re
infection on the part of the patient.
During the past month the dispensary
has been supplied with some medicine
which, however, is to be used only in
case of necessity where intervening
symptoms complicate
A feature of the treatment is to
bring patients to the point where they
are able to resist the incliuation to
cough incessantly, which is regarded
largely as a matter of habit aud which
tends to aggravate the disease. The
success of the treatment along that
line is well demonstrated, as several
patients, according to their own state
ments.cough but little more than half
as much as formerly.
Tho physician and the nurse con
nected with tin) dispensary following
the personal dirii tions of Dr. Dixon,
lay especial emphasis upon the matter
of promiscuous spitting by tuberculos
is patients, while travelling in rail
way or trolley cars or while upon the
streets. No pains are spared to im
press upon the patient that this prac
tice is not ouly disgusting, but that
it is dangerous to the health and lives
of others.

ABOUT SELLING
THEJOME FARM
So inauy farmers in middle life are
selling out and retiring that a word of
caution seems necessary. The chief
reasons for this great movement seems
to be a scarcity of suitable farm lab
or, the lack of a sou who has a liking
for agriculture, a longing for a liveli
er life on the part of the farmer or his
wife, and family or just common lazi
ness. Of course, there are reasons
which would seem to justify the farm
er in parting with his land, but even
though he may be tired of milking
cows, plowing, reaping, sowing, in
short, tired of farming as an occupa
tion, he should be very careful lest he
make a mistake in parting with his
farm to retire or engage in some merc
antile business in his home town,says
Practical Farming. The man who
said that success seldom comes to a
man after middle life If he has faile
at something else gave us some advice
which the would-be retired farmer
should consider. As a matter of fact,
we seldom hear of a farmer retiring
%7ho has been successful. He doesn't
want to sell his land ; is happier tlier
than he could be elsewhere; is more
independent and contented than he
could ever hope to be in some city or
town, and as he has been successful,
is looked up to and respected in his
community. Every section of the
country and every samll town can lay
claim to a few financial and agri
cultural wrecks who have sold their
farms after middle life, expecting to
live lives of ease the remainder of
their days. This dissipation of the
hard earnings and savings of more
than 25 years is often a sure road to
the poorhose. To retire needs capital;
to conduct a mercantile business needs
capital and skill with a satisfied pat
ronage. It is the sincere hope of The
Morning News that those who are
contemplating this step will read this
article and aet upon its advice. If any
of our readers are dissatisfied with
farm life for any cause it would be
better to give the farm in trust to
some reliable party who will take
good oare of it as long as they live.
Farm values are sure to increase und
farm produce, meats, grains, foodstuffs
and the like must advance with th
iucrease in population.

months with a summer oold so distress
ing that it interfered with inv busi
ness. I had many of the symptoms of
hay fever, and a doctors prescription
did not reach my case, aud I took sev
eral med ines which seemed only to
aggravate It. Fortunately I insisted
upon having Foley's Honey and Tar.
It quickly cured me. My wife has
since used Foley's Honey and Tar
with the same success. " For sale at

FREIGHT HOUSE
BURGLARIZED
Robbers invaded the freight house
of the Pennsylvania railroad. South
Danville,sometime between 12 o'clook
Friday nightjand Saturday morning
aud carried off booty consisting of
three hams, three'pieces of side meat,
a quantity of summer sausage and ov
er half a cheese
The robbers effected an entrance
through the office situated at the
northeastern corner of the building,
breaking open a window. The bur
glaiy was probably committed shortly
after midnight. About 12 o'clock when
James resides near, re
turned home, lie saw a man jump
down off the platform of the freight
house. The fellow's movements dur
ing the next few minutes, taken in
themselves were not especially signi
ficant, but in the light of the robbery
that was perpetrated they now appear
very suspicious.
It would seem that the booty was
brought to the Danville side of the
river. A boat belonging to P. J. Bay
lor, pulled up cn a bar of sand and
unlocked was missing the next morn
ing. The same boat was found on the
riffles later in the day. There were
no oars in the boat; only a pole. The
thieves, it would seem, poled the boat
With the booty across the stream.
Near the northern shore they struck
shallow water, where they were forc
ed to abandon the boat, wading to
shore. The boat, which was left to
take care for itself, drifted down to
the riffles where it lodged on a rock.
The meat stolen was consigned to
C. S. Smith,the South Danville merch
ant, and arrived on the late freight
Friday evening. The robbers found a
whole cheese a little too cumbersome;
they cut it in two parts, carrying off
the larger portion,nearly two-fifths of
the cheese.
Saturday afternoon a couple of Penn
sylvania railroad detectives arrived at
South Danville, but up to the present
no arrests have been made.

An Appreciation.
The Danville Bible class takes this
method of publicly expressing in
some slight dergee at least its high
est appreciation of the song service so
kindly rendered before the class Sun
day afternoon by the Keystoue
double quartette. The entire service
was of the highest merit. The short
talks made by the members of the
quartette added greatly to the intense
interest of the occasion which will
live long in the memories of those who
were fortunate enough to be present.
They were practical talks by practical
men—the great need of today. The
world awlays listens to ''the man with
a message."

DANVILLE DOWNS
LEWISBDRG
In probably the most exciting game
of the season, Danville trounoed Lew
isburg at DeWltl's park Saturday aft
ernoon by the olose score of 4 to 3,the
winning ran being scored in the ninth
inning.
Danville's victory may be attribut
ed to the daring base running of the
locals and their ability to take advant
age of several lapses on the part of the
Lewisburg players.
McCloud pitched a good game. He
allowed the visitors seven hits but
scattered them so successfully that
they were able to net bat three runs.
Lewisburg started off 'auspiciously by
scoring in the second and third, while
Danville failed to get a man started
until the fifth. In that innings Evans'
single and Lawreuca's sacrifice coupl
ed with daring base stealing got both
these men home, netting two runs ty
ing the score. It stood 2-2 until the
eighth when Lewisburg again scored.
Iu the ninth Danville again came to
the front with the goods. Deen's hit
started the fun; and added to this sev
eral stolen bases, a pass to Murphy, a
passed ball, a field'ers' choice and the
two necessary runs crossed the plate
with but one man out.

PAVEMENT FOR
FRONT STREET
In line with its polioy of street im
provement it was the plan of the bor
ough council to macadamize East Front
street the present summer or autumn,
even if the paving of East Market
street had togo over until next sum
mer. The street commissioner was
awaiting orders to take hold of the
work when a report was made to coun
cil at its last meeting which showed
that the people of East Market street
have caught the paving spirit and that
they protest against the borough
spending auv more money for mac
adam.
The committee explained that while
there is no organized opposition any
where along the street, for at least 4
squares east of Mill street, the proper
ty owners are unanimously in favor of
paving and further that they insist on
the work going forward at an early
date.
This was, indeed, quite a revelation
to some of the members of council. It
was explained that the sentiment in
favor of paving on East Front street
is stronger and more generally pre
vails than on East Market street,
where the element of opposition fig
ures in the numerous complications
that are holding up the work.
Ou East Market street it is proposed
to invoke State aid in paving the
street under the act of May Ist, 1905,
as was done by the borough when
North Mill street was paved. Under
the law the trolley company, it is held
will have to bear a part of the ex
pesuse of paving, while the improve
ment may aflect the trolley in other
respects. The paving proposition is
U P to the trolley company at present.
Until a final adjustment between the
borough and the electric railway peo
ple is reached it will b9 impossible to
take up the paving of the street with
the State highway department. Un
der the circumstances there are no
prospects of paving going forward this
year.
On Front street where there is no
street railway to reckon with the mat
ter is less complicated. Spurning
macadam the people want a pavement.
They are ready to make the necessary
formal application, but it is hardly
probable that any steps will be taken
this summer. It is the sense of coun
cil that the paving of East Front
street is a certainty and that it will
come soon, probably next spring.
Only One Bid Was Received.
Friday night was the time set for

ALL VOTERS
SHOBLD REGISTER
Wednesday, September 2nd, is the
last day on whioh you can register in
order to be eligible to vote at the com
ing November election.
This registration is not the personal
registration applicable to third-olass
cities, but it is the general require
ment and applies to every voter in
Montour oounty. These registry lists
are the ones made up by the assessors
and are posted by them at the polling
places of their respective election dis
tricts.
Make personal examination of your
district list, and 'be sure that your
name is upon it—if it is not see to it
at once that the assessor places the
name thereon, else your vote may be
lost. Young men who voted on age
last tall must be registered or they
cannot vote under any oircumstauceß.
Others who have paid a state or coun
ty tax within two years may be able
to swear in their votes, if they are not
upon the registry, but the voter who
cast his first ballot in 15)07 has no pos
sible chance to do this. He is not up
on any duplicate, has no tax assessed
against him, and consequently cannot
qualify to having paid a tax, as is
necessary where voters are left oil' the
registry. By failing to register lie
practically and effectually disfranch
ises himself.

Y. M. C. A. BUILDING
The gymnasium, the bath and toilet
rooms and in fact all the apartments
of the besemcnt of rhe V. M C. A.
building have been renovated and ev
erything presents a bright and artistio
appearance, which will no doubt aid in
attracting young men and boys to the
association building.
In the gymnasium the high walls
, from the ceiling to the wainscoting
have been treated with alabastine; the
system of pipes fastened to the wall
have been painted in a color that
iiarmonizes. All the lockers as well as
the woodwork in the bath and other
rooms aie painted white. In the lat
ter portion of the basement the walls
are mostly painted a shade of green.
On the whole the very best of taste
and judgment has been shown by
those who had the work in charge.
The colors chosen are suitable and
Harmonize, while in point of work
manship the painting could not be im
proved upon.

pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water

during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild an<?
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest

POSTAL"
ON POST CARDS
A half dozen post cards recently
placed on the bulletin board of the
local post office are attracting much
attention and a great deal of amuse
ment by reason of the nondescript and
wholly unintelligible writing. All
were evidently mailed by the same
person because, to quote one of the
clerks, "it is hardly possible that any
two persons exist that could make such
a good job of poor writing."
Not one of the cards is guilty of
having either stamp or address. The
portion of the card reserved for the
address as well as that reserved for the
correspondence, is covered with the
hieroglyphical writing.
In view of the number of post cards
being mailed daily, many of which
never reach their destination because
of improper mailing, the following
j rules furnished by the postal depart
ment relative to the mailing of post
cards will be of interest

Post cards of different size or mater
ial with writing, 2 cents

Leather Post cards with writing. 2
cents.

1 cent
Post cards enclosed in thin envel
opes, with writing, 3 csnts.
