A NEW ISSUE
OF POSTAL CARDS
The postoffice department is prepar
ing to issue a new postal card. Post
master General Hitchoock has called
in the expert chemists of the depart
ment of agriculture and has instructed
them to work out a formula that will
give a much better paper than can be
made under the contract now in force.
He says the postal cards issued by
this government are inferior to the
product of almost every other country
and that it is contemplated to make
improvements in the general style of
priming and arrangement of the type
and designs. It may bo decided to
change also the color of the ink and
the tint of the paper.
The government is issuing 7.">,000,-
000 postal cards 11 mouth. 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.

PLAYING AT THE
WAR CAME
The members of Compauy F, 13th
regiment, N. G. P., returned to Dan
ville Saturday from encampment at
Mt. Oretna. They arrived at South
Danville ou the 2.21 Pennsylvania
train aud forming in line marched ov
er to the armory with little evidence
of fatigue after their strenuous week,
although their uniforms were soiled
with dust aud otherwise a little the
worse for the coußtmt practioe aud
the long marches
The company is a unit in declaring
that the encampment this jear was not
only oae of the most enjoyable, but j
also oue of the most practical aud in
structive tiiat it ever attended.
First, the weather, although dry, |
was not oppressive. 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.
Practice iu the war gitne begau ou
Monday. At first but small numbers
were engaged. Next regiments and
battalions participated and finally,
Thursday, the whole brigade, divided
into two armies, the "Blues" aud the
"Browns," was called iuto action.
The maneuvers Thursday and Friday
led the militiamen over a march of
nearly twenty miles. On Thursday
night Company F, of the 12th regi
ment, bivouacked some ten mihs from
| camp.

' At about 8:80 o'clock iu the morniug,
a neighbor noticed suioke coming
through the roof of tin- Hoss house oc
cupied by Mr. Rhone, aud quickly
j spread the alarm In a few minutes
the whole roof of the house was in
flames.
Practically all of the residents of
the town responded to the alarm, and
set to work to save the household
goods. Everything but a few pieces
of upstairs furnture was gotten out.
The flames spread quickly and the
Miller home adjoining wa- on tire iu
a few minutes.
! A line of hose, owned by the Klk
Tanning company, was laid from the
tannery dam, 2,000 feet to the scene of
* the flames, but because of the long dis
' ! tauce and the difficulty experienced Iu
f 'gettiug the hose connections together,
;it was nearly a half hoar before they
' could pet a sufficient stream of water
Ito extinguish the flames. Occe, liow
jever. it was in workiug order, a pow
erful force pump sent a stream of wat
er with a pressure that sent the burn
ing weatherboards flying from the sine
'of the buildings. In lens than twenty
' minutes after the water vas starte !
rightly the fire was extinguished, bus
not before both the houses were be
yond repair.
The tire caused great excitement for
awhile, anil it was feared that other
houses would catch but by strenuous
work and carefully watching the sparks
this was avoided.

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. The be.?- would
| get out after them and thus would
j come iu contact with the hook and
' liue, after which thev would abandon
8 [
1 their natural and legitimate prey for
the choice and savory bait.
j It is generally- believed that there
I will yet he the very best of fishiug be
j i fore the seasou closes. There is an
abundance of time. It is quite likely
j that there will be rain by aud by.
, ! which with other causes will conspire
' ' to bring about the proper conditions

the kidney-poison

the bladder, brick-dust or sediment in

down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a derangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by a proper treatment of the kid
neys. Swamp-Root corrects inability to
hold urine and scalding pain in passing it,
' and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
\of being compelled togo often through
the day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect

THE CAUSE OF
GAPES IN CHICKS
Prof. H. 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. "
