The present four year eoutract expires 011 Decem ber 81 next, and in the meantime the postmaster general is giving personal attention to devising a more substant ial aud ornate card. It is probable that the uew postcard will be something chaste and yet orn ate. The postoffice departmeut is go ing to do all in is power to produce a card that the recipient will rejoice to welcome, a card that it will gladden him to gut. quite apart from the mere writing on it. It may not be a picture postcard, but it is to be .just as attrac tive au article as the corps of artists in the bureau of engraving aud print ing, laboring over time aud courting inspiration incessantly can evolve. But recently the postal authorities awoke to the alarming faot that Uncle Sam's post cards were behind the 1909 fashious. That fact began to be notic ed when faucified cards came in from abroad, with inscriptions in sundry foreign languages. It is probable that the inscriptions 011 the coming post card, owing to iusal prejndlco, wi!l be putin plain English They will be couched of course in the best of gram mar aud wording. Probably the legend will be something like "Address on this side," or something of similar meauing. No one has been able to think as yer of any other inscription half as suitable and fitting Of course the authorities may decide to reserve the left hand side of the face of the postcard for writing, and that will oblige them to change the printed legend slightly. Very likely the desiguers, in their search for the beautiful and the good, will retain the head of President McKinley on the stamp. But it may be that they will find another well known personality to as sume with perfectly corking enthusi asm the labor of traveling about on his face. .Tust. as the duty of orna menting the cent has beei. shifted from the shoulders of the Indian maid en to the bust of President Lincoln, a shift may be made in the patron of the great medium of open face communi cation as well. The departmeut expects to secure a better «rade of cardboard for the cards without difficulty. The foreign cards, it is said, in mauy rases outdo the American in lightness aud in strength aud are white besides. The item of weight is to be considered, when it is remembered that the postoffice depart ment bundles some 75,000,000 cards a mouth. That is a card a mouth for pretty nearly every inhabitant, and in ttie aggregate the trifliug reduction in weight that might be effected would mount up to many, many tons. The authorities are not worried so it is heard, by the rumor that the scheme of giving up half the face of the card to writing has failed. Some annoying persons had it that the pur pose of the front reservation ou ttie card was to make room for a brief re sume of the stuff on the rear, that the rural postmaster might glance through and get the sense of the communica tion without troubling to turn it over.

SMALL BOY'S QUEER GAPER A hoinssiok lad longing to revisit ! the scene of past days did a very freak- | isli thing Saturday evening, which j caused his parents anxiety and incld- [ entally threw the town into a state of \ intense excitement. The lad in question was little "Naph" the eight year old sou of the Rev. George S. Wonier, pastor of St. Paul's j Methodist Episcopal church. Mr. Womer with his family removed here from Hollidaysburg last spring. The 1 little lad iias never liked it in Dan- j v 1 lie aud has always expressed a de- ' sire to return to Hollidaysburg. On Saturday evening at suppertime | "Naph" was missiug from tile family j circle. Au hour later he was still ab- j sent. By this time the family had be- j come very anxious aud, assisted by a number of friends, began to search for ; the boy. It seemed all iu vain, how- j ever, aud at night fall he was still ab sent. At this juncture it was decided to ring the courthouse bell. At such an hour this bell seems to have but one siguiiicatiou. No sooner was the peal of the ball heard abroad than people understood that a child was lost. J. W. Trease, clerk in the Pennsy station at SouWi Danville, who hap pened to be in town, recalled that a little boy left on tiie 4 ::il Pennsyl vania train under circumstances that . caused some comment. He described the boy's dress and ap pearance both of which corresponded I exactly with those of the missing lad. j Moreover the boy told tiie station • agent that he wanted togo to Holli | daysburg. Thus tiie missiug lad v.as ' j located and nothing remained but to I intercept him somewhere along the j j routs. Mr. Womer hurried to South Dan ville, where after a short conversation I with Station Agent Clark the latter enlisted tiie several agencies at his command in au effott to apprehend the boy—if possible, by intercepting him at Lewistown .Junction, if not by tak iug him in charge at Altoona. The j telegraph was used to such excellent ! advautage that in an incredibly short J period of time word came back that J they had apprehended the little travel i ler at Lewistown Junction. At tiie suggestion of Mr. Wonier tiie boy was i handed over to the Rev. E. H. Yocum, I who is stationed at Lewistown and who will take care^of him until his | father arrives there. | Station Agent Olark Sunday stat •ed that he sold the boy a ticket with I the greatest reluctauee, as he seemed ! small to travel alone. The little fel- I low. however, had a very clear idea of where he was going. He told Mr. 1 Olark that his home was iu Hollidays j burg and was aware of the fact that i lie would have to take the trolley 011 , the Ust stage of his journey, between Altooua and his destination. That tiie \ agent was misled under tiie clrcum -1 stances is uot surprising.

Duriug the mid die of the day tha sun was warm, j which together with the deep dust, j contributed to blight discomfort, but t the nights were cool and pleasant so | that sound refreshing sleep was with- : in the reach of nil. Beyond a few cases of cramp there was no illness worthy of mention. The company is greatly delighted with the war game at which it was obliged to play during the week. It was a striking object lesson, to show the guardsmen what real maneuvering ami actual win faro are like. On Thurs day Company F found itself on the tiring liue with several problems to solve that called for quick decision. The situation to the militiamen was realistic in the extreme as they stood ! lace to face wish the enemy, with can j noil planted to the right aud the left of them aud the simultaneous dis charge of rifles riuging in their ears.

WHY TNlf BASS AkK BITING SLOWLY Notwithstanding that fishing condi ' tious are presumably good yet it is a fact that bass are biting slowly; only a few fish large enough to merit any special notice have as yet been hook : ed, while iu the matter of phenomen al catches there simply have been uoin ' I to report. 1 1 Local fishermen are trying hard to ; evolve a theory as to the cause. No one seems to doubt that the fish exist; r the river is just about the right stage [ for good fishiug aud other conditions ' ! seem about right. The one drawback jj S iu the opiuiou of some is the very s clearness of the water, due to the r drought; the transparency resembles that of plate glass, enabling the fish to see a great distance through the water, so that it is easily disturbed and frightened away by the least move ment of the fisherman.* Under exist B ' t ing conditions bass are doubly sly aud gamy aud the man who goes fishiug i must he prepared to bring all the arts j and wiles of the angler into play. I There is a state of general inactivity iu the river due to the absence ct rain 0 which is not conducive to good fish ing. A shower which would cause the ' small streams to rise aud discharge 1 their water into the river would stir up things a little. The suiall fisti,&c , ! that serve as food for the larger would ' | thus be set in motion.

A. Surface, the.State Zo ologist, ia daily in receipt of letter* requesting information iu regard to insect pests aud the diseases of plant life. These letters came to his office iu Harrisburg from every part of the 1 State and are upon many topics. Uis ' not surprising, therefore, that he re ceived one in reference to that com mon affliction of poultry, known as gapes. The correspondent asked for the best relief for chicks suffering with 1 gapes, and wanted to know how to 1 prevent the trouble Prot. Surface replied that ''Gapes 1 in little chicks are caused by the eat ' iug of earth-worme. There are para ' sites in the eaith-worma which find •' their way into the windpipe of the • chicken aud lodge there, where they ' take the form of little red worms.The - best preventive is to keep the chick i ens from the surface of the ground; i or use salt or strong salt water on the ; soil, so as to kill tha earth-worms ; cr j strew strong lima or something of the , kind on the ground, so that tl.e chicks will not get hold of the worms to ea: them. "After the chicks liave been attack ed with gapes, however, yon can dis lodge the worms by making a verv small loop in a twiated horse hair, draw out the tongue of the chick slightly, insert the horse hair loop .a the windpipe opening, which will be seen between the forks at the base of the tongue, aud, twisting the ha:: J around, withdraw it. The worms are t likely to be found within the loop, or some of them will have been thus re moved, aud the operation can be r* ' peated. ( " Another remedy is to dip the tip of i a soft feather into kerosene ami iu i sert it in the windpipe opeuing to ! dislodge and kill the worms. Suci. treatment, although severe, is belter than letting the worms remain uudis turbed, to severely annoy the fowls > and even kill them. "Mixing turpentine and other sub stances in the food of the young poul - try has not proven satisfactory as a i remedy for gapes.
