® Our White Pine Cough Balsam with tar touches the tickle.
It is very unwise to let it run on. Many times a cough is nothing §
more than a slight cold, and ean be stopped by the use of our Pine
Balsam.
This is just the season of the year when tke cool, blustering wind
and nipping air are making coughs and colds pretty fast. If you are
one of the victims, you need something, and we have that something.
We are pretty positive about that.

Weak Kidneys, surely point to weak kidney
Nerves. The Kidneys, like the Heart, and the

# medicine specifically prepared to reach these
gontrolling nerves. To doctor the Kidneys alone,
fs futile. It is a waste of time, and of money as
well.

The Happy Farmer.
A certain class of newspaper men
assert that a farmer is the most inde-
pendent man on earth, and that he has
nothing to do but to enjoy life. That
when winter comes and the blizzard’s
on the wing he toasts his feet in the
oven and reads the local newspaper,
and the only thing that disturbs him is
a call three times a day to a banquet
of mince pies and other luxuries. It is
a mistake. The industrious farmer be-
gins work long before the sun thinks
of getting up. With his soul shrouded
in gloom he proceeds to build a fire and
soften his boots with a sledge hammer.
He then takes a lantern and shovels
his way to the barn and feeds the hogs.
It is then time to feed the newly ar-
rived calf, which seems to delight in
butting a pail of milk over the tiller of
the soil until he only needs to be
stamped to pass for a package of oleo-
margarine. He crawls through a barb-
wire fence and digs the hay out of the
snow, feeds the cows, cleans the stable,
gathers up the frozen chicks, chases a
stray pig worth 25 cents for four miles,
and does not catch it, doctors a sick
horse, freezes his fingers, gets kicked
by a one-eyed mule, and when the
gloaming comes and quietness broods
over all the earth, he has a single half
hour to meditate and wonder how he
will pay his taxes.

Protect Your Town.
Protect your own town and thereby
show that you are in favor of protec-
tion. If protection is good for the na-
tion it is good for the town. As towns-
people we should favor our town above
every other, as the growth and devel-
opment of it is what will enhance the
value of all property, both in and about
it. Then buy your drygoods, grocer-
ies, hardware, etc., at home; have your
printing, your blacksmithing, ete., done
at home ; patronize home in every in-
stance that you can. The success of
our merchants and mechanics means
new business houses and residences,
additional demands for labor of various
kinds. To the farmer a first-class town
affords a better market for his grain, a
better trading point, and such a town
is bound to increase the value of his
land Unquestionably “in union there
is strength.” Let us protect our town.
A Silent Christmas.
It is not generally known that
Christmas at one time was regarded as
a superstitious festival, and put down
in England by the strong hand of the
law. The holly and mistletoe bough
were ordered to be destroyed, root and
branch, as “plants of the Evil One.” It
was Oliver Cromwell who ordered that
throughout the principal towns in the
country, Christmas should not be ob-
served, “it being a hurtful custom.”
In order to make people forget Christ-
mas, he enacted that all markets should
be held on the 25th of December. It
was hardly to be expected that the peo-
ple would quietly submit to so extra-
ordinary arule, nor did they. During
the illness of Henry VIII, in the first
year of his reign, it was decided that
the Christmas should be a silent one.
There were no bells, carols or merry-
making.

Suggestion to Farmers.
There is no class of people more fa-
vorably situated for easily profiting by
the growing of nuts than the farmers.
They have the land in odd corners of
fields, along lanes and public roads,
about the farm buildings, where trees
of any kind could be planted to im-
prove the appearance of the farm and
really enhance its selling value. In
the selection of trees for shade or or-
nament, nothing fills the requirements
better than the nut tree suited to the
locality. In the New England states
the hickory nut is available; in the
Central states and along mountain
ranges, even into southern territory,
the chestnut is well adapted to the soil
and climate; in the Central west and
in the great river basins the walnut
and hickory are important native for-
est trees, which have been ruthlessly
destroyed, while farther south and
along the South Atlantic and Gulf
coasts the pecan is in its home. All of
these trees will yield rich dividends in
time, are ornaments for years to come
and are all valuable for timber.—Ex.
Local Option Bill Likely to be
Passed.
The Pennsylvania Anti-Saloon League
has begun an active campaign among
the members of the next Legislature
for the passage of a local option bill
similar to that which failed at the last
session. This campaign is being con-
ducted from the league headquarters
in Harrisburg by Supt. Nicholson, who
has managed similar campaigns in
Ohio, New York, Maryland, Indiana
and Illinois.
Mr. Nicholson claims the league elec-
ted more than two-thirds of the legis-
lative candidates which it endorsed in
the recent campaign in Pennsylvania.
The league is maintained by private
contributions, and has permanent head-
quarters in Harrisburg, almost within
a stone’s throw of the Capitol. Mr.
Nicholson lives on the outskirts of the
city, and will spend the winter there
directing his campaign for the local
option bill. He has made a census of
the church vote in Pennsylvania, and
expects to use this in efforts to reach
legislators on the bill.

FLOGGED IN SCHOOL.
A parent complains that his boy was
chastised by a school teacher with a
piece of rubber hose. In good old
birch-and-hickory days, a hollow rub-
ber tube would have been a thing of
joy for the truant boy. It would have
encouraged and promoted the game of
“hook.”
It might be added that the boys of
the late David Barnes’ day did not tell
their parents when the teacher punish-
ed them. “In the good old, rare old
golden days, it was not like that at all.”
When a boy was birched at school, he
kept the matter sedulously concealed
from his parents, because in most
cases they added another flogging.
Our forefathers were thorough believ-
ers in the wisdom of Solomon, and fol-
lowed his injunction to the letter and
to the hide.
Whether it was the result of the
treatment or not, it remains a fact that
more boys in that age grew up to be
brave and honest, sober and indus-
trious citizens, even if they were not so
precocious as those of the present gen-
eration.—Connellsville Courier.

Weevil and Moth—How to Kill
Them.
Economic Zoologist Surface is daily
receiving letters complaining of th:
ravages of the rice weevil, the grain
weevil and the Angumole grain moth
These pests operate in much the sam:
way, eating into the kernels of whea:
and leaving nothing but chaff. Pro
fessor Surface says that $100,000 los-
during the present year is a conserva
tive estimate.
Threshing wheat immediately after
harvesting will do much toward stop-
ping the ravages of the weevils, he say:.
but that a sure way to prevent bot!
the weevils and the moth from attack
ing grain is to put the crop into a tigh~
bin, place therein one pound of bisul-
phide of carbon to each 100 bushels of
grain, and cover the whole with heav; .
damp blankets. This will not injur-
the grain, but will keep out the bugs.
