TESTING THE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM Tho GommltteoB In Charge Have Docidod to Havo Tosto Mado Every Friday Evening at Seven O'clock. I1E tiro apparatus com miltee of the Borough Council has made ar rangements lor tM alarms of tho o ectric fire alarm system. Tho first test will be raide at 7 o'clock noxt Friday evening, bo that when the alarm is Founded at that hour tho people may bo prepared for it and not endanger their 1ms in desperate effor s to reach tho supposed flro ecene, Friday night of each week h reafter, at 7 o'clock, will be tho test hour for the system Cut this out and pastn it in your hat. Frequent reference to it may prevent unnecessary thock and inconvenience. V This is just tho season of the year when peoplo feel the bad effects of biliousness, and they run to tho doctor and run up bll s at the lamo time. Tho average practi tioner would rather not bother with a bilious patient. One of our leading phy sicians gavo mo a recipe for biliousness the other day, which ho claims will cure the worst case. It is very simplo, and all that is necesB.try is to tako tho juice of a small lomon, or a lime, into a half of a elass of water, and then add a pinch of baking soda. Drink tho concoction whilo it foams and you will be a well man aftor a night's sleep. This is also an oxcellent roniedy for tick headache. No charges for this profesiional advice. V Sqeaky shoes I They are worse than a kits without a moustache accompaniment. Nearly all ready-made shoes squeak, and while pur chasing a pair of shoos that had this fait, the dealer told me how to remedy it. Go to a shoemaker and havo him put a peg in the middle of tho sole and thoro will bo no more loud proclamations. Another thing, whon you buy a new pair of shoos and thoy hurt you, put water in them, and let it remain for a minute, then pour it out, and if your shoes burn or hurt you after that you can say I am wrong. The water takes all tho natural host out of the leather, and makes the shoos comfortable. Tho meetings being bold by the Repub licans during the week aro drawing large crowds.

Tho object of his cballengo, be said, was to bring together both Democrats and Rnpublicans to he.r the issues discussed. I , understand tho challenge issued by Mr, Brumm allows his opponont to select any Democrat be pleases, providod Mr. Reilly foels that bo is not able to fill the bill. There are n large number of voters in this1 section, both Democrats and Republicans, who would like to hear tho issue of tho campaign debated by Meiers, Brumm aud Reilly.

Let ail our townsmen exert themselvot in behalf pf the soldiers' monument fund nd keep the good work going steadily until the sum required U fully pledged and in hand. It Is certainly rcaonabio thot Shenan doah should havo a foldiors' monument. It is tho largest town in tho county, is al ways foremott in all patriotic movements in which its aid is invoked, and when Pottsvllle made appeals for contributions for tho soldiers' monument erected in that town Shenandoah responded liberally. Now let the people of Shenandoah have a soldiors' monument. Thoy want ono and tho movement that has been put on foot to raise funds for it has met with popular favor. But ono thing remains to be done to secure a monument ami that is a f w days of active work to raise subscriptions. Five hundred dollars is the amount now pledged. A pull, a strong pull, and the figures can bo landed at tho $1,000 mark within a fow days. Alter tho first $1,000 is secured tho balanco will flow into tho fund. Nearly all tho patriotic organizations have mado liberal pledgos to the movement and many of our prominent citizens have also placed themselves on record. The Women's Rolief Corps, which is a G, A. R, auxiliary organization, has arranged to hold a supper on November 21th, noxt, for tho benefit of tbo fund, and Henry Uorncastle Camp, No. 49, Sons of Veterans, has appointed a committoo to make arrangomenta to raiso money. - This committoo is now negotiating for a produc tion of tbe original "Old Homestead" at Ferguson's theatre, with Denman Thomp son, tho creator of the famous character Joshua Whilcomb, in the cast.

ANOTHER STREET ' PAVING PETITION IT WILL BE PRESENTED TO OOUNOnj. AND AN ORDINANCE ASKED FOR The Property Owners on South Main Street Between Oak and Cherry Stroots Now on the Movo. S predicted by the Herald, the move ment to pave the tquare on Main street, between Centro and Oak streets, has awakened the people of other sections and crea'ed u dosiro on their part to also share in the great advantages tbat permanent street work afford the public in general aud property owners in particular.

The property owners between Oik and Cherry streets havo their petition for street paving ready for presentation at tho next meeting of Council, and it is understood tbat thoy will ask Council to pass an or dinance allowing them to pavo on the con ditions set forth by tho Act of Assombly. The petition is a strong ono and instead of having the signatures of but two-thirds of the property owners on tbe square, as re quired by law, has been signed by all but two of the property owners. Tho two who have not signed are Mr. I. Bobbins and Mrs. Holden, and they havo not refused to do so. Tbo parties who are circulating the petition have not had an opportunity to seo them, but expect to .have -their signa tures before the petition is presented to Council. The property owners on the square be tween Oak and Ceatrostreots will thus seo that their plan is in danger of falling through and that if they do not hustle and get their matter beforo Council in proper shape very soon their neighburs will pluck the plum and all the talk and work of the past two weeks will havo accomplished nothing. An opinion prevails that tho property owners between Centro and Oak streets are t jo slo w. 'I rilltSOJTAI- Mrs. John A. Titman spent to-day at Pottsyille.
