Danville, Pa., Feb. 25, 1909. __ NOTED CASE APPEALED His Honor Judge Evans came down to this city Tuesday for the purpose of certifying to the reoords in the case of Simou Fleishman vs. T'aul Swentek, whioh was tried last February aud in whioh an appeal has been taken by the plaintiff. This case, aside from the fact that it has been before court for nearly eight years, very curiously involves a couple hundred dollars' worth of dry goods stored in the sheriff's office in the courthouse. The clothing mostly in the form of pantaloons, which oc cupies a large portion of the space, has been an object of much curiosity to straugers during the seven or eight years that it has been stored there, and, on the whole, has suggested a clothing store quite as much as n sheriff's office. Some time prior to October 28, l!i03, Simon Fleishman bought from Mr. Dreifuss a stock of clothing in the Swentek building aud proceeded to re move it from the city when he was stopped. A question as to the liability for rent on the building had arisen be tween Mr. Swentek and Mr. Fleish man and ilia result was that the aid of the sheriff was invoked. After the claim for rent was satisfi ed a large quautity of goods remained unsold. Mr. Fleishman refused to ac cept the goods aud brought suit against Mr. Swentek for damages. After many postponements the case went to trial on February 35, 1907. A verdict was returned for the defendant, Paul P. Swentek. Hon. H. M. Hinckley and E. S. Gearhart were counsel for the plaintiff and Hon. Grant Herriug and William Ease West for the defendant. A new trial being refused the plaintiff appeals the case. The case is the one on the sup reme court lit-t and will come up next week. ALL THE GOOD QUALITIES of Ely's Cream Balm, solid, are found in Liquid Cream Balm, which is in tended for useiu atomizers.

OBSERVED 111 THE SCHOOLS The stars anil stripes were swung out pretty generally along Mill street Monday in honor of Washington's birthday. Beyond this there was little evidence that the day was being ob served. The banks and post office were closed, but the schools were in session. The presence of the pupils going to and coming from school, together with the spectacle presented by the busy mills and open Btores.was by no means suggestive of a holiday. In the schools Washington's birth day was observed, bnt the fact that the ocoasion followed so closely on the heels of Lincoln Day detracted some what from the interest. Following the custom of past years Washington's birthday in all the rooms was observ ed in some manner, either by reading a selection or sinking a son*; appropri ate to the day. In several rooms of the lower grades this year an extended program was rendered. The sohools in whioh such exercises took place Monday were those omitted on Lincoln Day—the pupils of which on that occasion in rendering the exercises united with those of other rooms.

Spring must certainly be here, for the song of the bluebird is heard in the land. Sunday people on their way on the south side were startled by hearing the clear, round notes of a bluebird, and, looking skyward, they saw a beautiful specimen of the liar binger of spring perched on a tree within the grounds surrounding the large building. And the bird waas singing away for dear life. Naturally the question was! asked: "Does this mean the real Spring? Are we to have surcease from , snows aud blizzards and tempests?" : The bird of spring warbled its round- ; lay, now hook your winter overcoat, | get out your spring toggery,for spring J is here. The bluebird has said so, aud 1 who shall gainsay the bluebird?

REPORT OP DISPENSARY The monthly report of the tuberculo sis dispensary shows that there are thirty four patients enrolled at pre sent. Of these thirty-two are receiv ing free treatment; two are under con sideration. the diagnosis not being clear. Six new patients have been ad mitted, Nine were examined. I lie patients unrolled made sixty-one visits to the dispensary during the ] month. Orders were given for 33fi j quarts of milk and 117 dozen of eggs 1 The nurse made 18 visits. Of the patients, seventeen showed 1 gain in weight. Nine revealed neith-1 er gain nor loss. Six showed loss, j During the month only four patients were taking medicine. In addition to milk and eggs a pure grade of Italian Olive oil is being dispensed to the patients when the latter desire it. Olive oil is regarded as invaluable for building up the body to overcome in fection as well as to resist re-infection. I Dr. Stock has discovered that there is a widespread misapprehension to j the effect that patients enrolled at the I dispensary are expected to discontinue ! work. Nothing, he says, is further from the object of the State depart ment of health. The dispensaries, he says, are established to help the peo ple affected with tuberculosis. When the iurcads of the disease can be pre vented without obliging the patient to discontinue work, why so much the better. Indeed, it is rather desirable than otherwise that the patient should be occupied, provided that the work is of a sort that does not overtax the strength or expose the patient to the weather,espeoially to sudden changes. One of the principal objects of the dispeirsary is to teach the patient, j whether at work or not, to observe all the rules and regulations laid down as to spittiug, etc., so that lie may riot expose those around him to danger and prevent reinfection on his own part.
