Tide, Untidiness is something that every girl should beware of. Her personal appearance is ruined by it, her chances of success are diminished by it; and oftentimes home life is made almost intolerable by the presence of one un- tidy person. It does not take wealth to create a home, neither does it take riches to make a girl good to look at, but it takes that in describable charm of neatness. It is virtue, and if a girl possess ittoa high degree, she can surpass many a girl of wealth in style and appearance, and that, too, on a small income. Every fastidious woman loves dainty things, but unless she knows how to take care of them, they will not look so long. Have we not all met the gentle, kindly, good-natured woman, who takes life serenely and simply, who reaches out after happiness wherever it may be found, and does all she can to make others happy? Often she is care- less in her home, in the little things that make a fine house-keeper. Seldom is she very wise or witty. She does not talk much, she is willing to listen. She has a lovely smile, a soft touch, a responsive glance and a kind word for everyone. She has many faults, and as they are on the surface, they are read- ily seen—but everyone loves her. The strenuous turn to her for rest; the hasty-tempered go to her for counsel; the sorrowful go to her for comfort; the erring go to her for sympathy. She is not so perfect that she fails te under- stand the mean and the wicked. Peo- ple do not judge her, for she judges none. They offer her love, and as love is the one thing in the world that seems to her worth winning, she is content with what they give. AN UNGRATEFUL SON. There is no suffering like heart agony. A mother never regrets any physical pain that she can endure for her loved ones, It isthe anguish of the heart that kills her—anguish caused by their ingratitude and wrong-doing. A saint- ly old woman once said: “When our children are small they trample upon our toes; but when they grow up they trample upon our hearts.” That' was the cry of a broken heart. She had a drunken, debauched son, who had squandered her money, forged his father’s name and disgraced the family. That mother complained not of any physical suffering she had endured for her boy. She had gone down into the very jaws of death, almost, to give him life ; but the pain was swallowed up in joy when she pressed the new-born child to her heart. Through years and years she had ministered to his wants. She had spent sleepless nights with him when he was sick. Her hand had smoothed his brow, and her feet had been quick to go upon errands of love for him. In pain and watchfulness and weariness she had cared for him; but never a murmur fell from her lips. It was a joyful service. But his waywardness broke her heart. GOOD HABITS COUNT. The temptations found in city life for the young man from the country are many, but if the home training has been properly given, the parents need have but little anxiety about their boys who may seek employment in the large city. A boy with brains and pluck will succeed anywhere. Parents should not forget that those who employ labor in the metropolis dis- tricts insist upon temperate workers, Upon railroads, in factories, stores, ma- chine shops and offices only temperate persons are tolerated, and the intem- perate youth soon finds his place taken by a sober one. Every day, every year we find our young men and women taking positions for which they are not fitted. There are plenty of misfits in this busy world simply becanse the individual does not do his or her own thinking. Experi- ence often demonstrates what the in- dividual is best fitted for, and it may take some little time before the young man or woman finds the right road to travel. However it is much easier to follow the road of life if the individual will do a little straight thinking on his or her own account. Many things are to be considered carefully. Natural fitness and inclina= tion are importand elements. The ad- vice of parents should be considered. But in all walks of life, no matter how humble the pursuit may be, the foun- dation of success is embedded in good habits. Clean living, right thinking and plenty of action are the key note looking toward the rounding out of a useful, happy life. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. Wm. H. Reitz to A. D.

Oh, don’t you remember sweet Alice, Ben Bolt, Sweet Alice, whose hair was so brown, ‘Who wept with delight when you gave her a smile, And trembled with fear at your frown? In the old church-yard, in the valley, Ben Bolt, In a corner obscure and alone, They have fitted a slab of the granite so gray, And sweet Alice lies under the stone, They have fitted a slab of the granite so gray, And sweet Alice lies under the stone. Under the hickory tree, Ben Bolt, Which stood at the foot of the hill, Together we’ve lain in the noon-day shade, And listened to Appleton’s mill. The mill-wheel has fallen to pieces, Ben Bolt, The rafters heve tumbled in, And a quiet that crawls round the walls as you gaze, Has followed the olden din, And a quiet that crawls round the walls as you gaze, Has followed the olden din. And don’t you remember the sci.ool, Ben Bolt, With the master so kind and so true, And the shaded nook by the running brook, Where the fairest wild-flowers grew? Grass grows on the master’s grave, Ben Bolt, The spring of the brook is dry, And of all the boys who were school-mates then, There are only you and I; And ofall the boys who were school-mates then, There are only you and I. Nore—'Ben Bolt” was first published in the New York Mirror in September, 1843, and the author was Dr. Thomas Dunn English. The tune is a German melody. English was for one term a member of Congress from the Essex district of New Jersey, and died in 1892. He himself did not estimate “Ben Bolt” highly, but it has been sung extensively on two continents. He used to relate that soon after the sang was published, a ship and a race horse were named after it; adding, “The ship was wrecked and the horse never won a race.” et A New Swindle. A well-dressed man stops at a farm house and declares that he has lost a diamond pin in the roadway, and all make a search. Nothing is found, but before leaving the stranger; says he will return and if the pin is found, he will give a reward of $150 for its re- turn. A few days later a tramp turns up with a pin, presumably a diamond, which he says he found. The farmer usually takes the bait andjgets the pin for $20 or $25, expectinggto get $150 as his reward. After vainly waiting for the loser he learns from some jeweler that the pin is worthless. Divorce Expensive, The taking of testimony in the sensa- tional Hartje divorce case, which had been in progress for several weeks in Pittsburg, closed on Saturday and ar- guments were made by counsel this week. It was the longest divorce case ever tried in the Pittsburg courts, and it is estimated that by the time Judge Frazer hands down his opinion, which may not be for some weeks, , Augustus and Mary Scott Hartje will have ex- pended not less than $250,000 in the effort to have all marital relations severed. If either side appeals to the Supreme court this penditure will be greatly increased, as the printing of the Paper Book alone would reach fully two thousand dollars. Among the heaviest expenditures were for securing handwriting experts —men of recognized ability—who in- variably testified for the side by which they were employed. These experts received from $40 to $250 per day and expenses. One man, Carvalho, of New York, was paid $1,000 down and $250 a day, and he was in Pittsburg for three weeks. The cost for detectives was enormous and the estimate of $100,000 for attor- neys’ fees is considered low. And all this to get a divorce! Free Scholarships in Nurse Train- ing. The Philadelphia School for Nurses has purchased large properties at 2219- 25 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, and will extend the benefits of the Free Course in Nursing to young women of every rural community and of the smaller towns and cities throughout the entire country. The Course is two years, but may be shortened to eighteen months by six months’ reading and study at home. The School provides room, board, nurse uniforms, gives full instruction, and pays the student’s fare home at the end of the Course. A special short course is provided for those who cannot spend two years in the study but who wish to quickly pre- pare themselves for self-support. The object of those who are provid- ing the funds for this work is to ulti- mately extend the benefits of skilled nursing to every village and township in the land. Nearly 200 Free Scholarships will be available this year. — Cure for Gossip. “One Sunday night at church not so long ago,” said a city employe, “the congregation was much disturbed dur- ing the singing of the hymn by a wom- an who would presistently gossip in loud tones. At last the minister grew tired of the disturbance and devised a plan to put a stop to it. At a given signal, the choir was to stop singing abruptly. The plan worked all right, and everybody stopped at the sign, but one of the gossipers was unable to check herself so suddenly and was heard to say: ‘I always fry mine in lard’ Then it was that the minister had his innings and in a clear, calm voice he announced: ‘Now that we know she always fries hers in lard, we will proceed with the singing,’ the choir took up the hymn again, the gossiping woman looked red and uncomfortable and the rest of the congregation wore looks on their faces hardly in accord- ance with a charitable spirit.”—Colum- bus Dispatch. To Repair all Freight Engines. It is reported at the beginning of next month every engine on the Con- nellsville Division of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad will be taken into the shops and given a thorough overhaul- ing, preparatory for the heavy winter trafic expected. It is generally be- lieved that tonnage records will be shattered on the division during the comming autumn and winter, and it is in anticipation of this that the engines will be overhauled. The Connellsville Division is in better shape to handle heavy traffic than ever before in its history. The immense freight engines placed in service during the past year are of enormous capacity, and these, with the engines that were displaced by their introduction, gives the divi- sion officials plenty of motive power. All this will be needed.—Connellsville Courier. ———— SHE, Marriage Licenses. Charles E. Watson, Connellsville. Eva Burnworth, Confluence. George H. Kuhlman, Milford. Elsie Shaudt, Milford. Edward J.
