Regarding the recent Act of the Pennsylvania Legislature, npproved March 2, 1911, a prothonotary in another county has received a com munication from Harrlsburg, that is of interest and Importance to jus tices of the peace, as well as all public officers in Wayne county. The letter follows: March 29, 1911. To the Prothonotary: Dear Sir Aldermen and Justices of the Peace whose terms have been lengthened by the recently adopted constitution al amendments and schedule thereto or by the act of 2 March 1911, are entitled to serve the additional time without being re-commissioned, as the effect is to continue them in of fice during the extended terms with out any other or further commis sions. Official acts performed during ex tended terms are by said act made valid and of the same force and ef' feet as If each of said officers had been elected and commissioned to servo until the end of the extended terms. Attention Is directed to the fact that the terms of Aldermen and Jus tices of the Peace extended by the schedule from the lirst Monday of May, 1911, until the first Monday of December, 1911, are such public of ficers, otherwise provided for, whose terms, therefore, are not fur ther extended by section one of said act. Their successors are to be elected in November, 1911, whose terms will begin the first .Monday of December, 1911, and continue until the first Monday of January, 191S. See section five of act. In other words, the Act of 2 Alarch, 1911, does not affect the be ginning or end of terms of Alder men and Justices of tho Peace whose terms were extended and fixed by the schedule to the constitution; that is, (1) thoso expiring In Alay, 1911, which were extended to December, 1911, and, (2) those elected in Feb ruary, 1910, whoso terms were fixed to expire in December, 1915; but section five of said act does provide for extension of one month at end of lerm of their successors, so the term will end In January of the appro priate year. The terms ol Aldermen and Jus tices of the Peace which would have expired in Alay or other years are ex tended In accordance with section one of said act; that is, to January of the appropriate year following.

Rev, Walker expects to move from they could. This department has brought joy and sunshine Into many a life. 1 have known of such in stances. It is adaptable to all localities. It is possible to have a Home Depart ment anywhere. The country is no exception. In my work of getting Home Dapartments started in tho schools, I find that the town and city schools are tho slowest to be gin the work. Yet two largest de partment! of this county are in city schools. I have had country churches for the past live years; these churches have been In two counties. I have found it possible to have a Home Department in these , n scnoois. i no wont none is wormy of note. In one of these schools the Home Department was run by tho superintendent of the department alone. She was an aged woman, but her means and life were con secrated to the Alaster's service. She traveled about live miles to leach some members of the depart ment. 1 have at present, In two schools, Home Departments doing commendable work. The depart ments are not large but are grow ing. In a, revival a year ago we I had several converts who joined the church. They attributed the cause to the work of the Home Depart ment. So the smallest as well as the largest country school may have a Homo Department. The school with few workers as well as the one with many. The work can be car- Coming In Out of the Wet. There Is an amusing story by Atbe naeus which suggests the possible ori gin of the phrase "He does not know enough to come In out of the wet." Ac cording to the I'liicrtaining grammarian referred lo. a town in Greece under stress of evil circumstances borrowed money from a rich man. who took as security for the loan a mortgage on the handsome portico which surrounded the market place He was not an nn- enerous creditor, for when It rained he caused the town criers to announce thai the citizens hud permission lo take refuge under the colonnade. Strangers visiting the town who fall ed to have the ma-ter properly explain ed to them were so impressed by the extraordinary circumstances that they spread abroad the report that the peo pie were so stupid that they had to be told when to come in out of the wet.

I nassed between the teeth and over the upper jaw, auu iu u siuiiuu- wuj .iinuu There Is a deep-rooted Impression among consumers of anthracite coal in Pennsylvania that the high price of that essential commodity Is not .vholly due to the unlettered work ing of economic law. The wldo dis proportion between the successive in creases in the wages paid to the miners and tho increases in the price exacted of the consumer, together with tho equally striking discrepancy in the transportation charges per ton per mile for anthracite as com pared with, the corresponding freight rates for bituminous coal and other commodities, have combined to deep en the conviction that the consumer Is the victim of extortion to the tune of many millions of dollars annually. The close ' community of Interest between the transportation and min ing companies and tho restricted re gion within which anthracite is found making this sort of combina tion and control possible, are factors in the public dissatisfaction and in the widespread distrust of the ex planations offered by the coal pro ducing and carrying corporations. These considerations glvo to the resolutions Introduced in tho Senate at Harrlsburg an importance which they might not otherwise have. Pennsylvania politicians have only themselves to blame If their motives are mistrusted, and if all legislative proposals affecting powerful corpora tion Interests are suspected either of too friendly Inspiration or of be ing prompted by sinister intentions. If tho Salus proposals for an exhaus tive legislative inquiry into the high cost of coal have no motive other than to ascertain the truth, they will bo heartily welcomed by consumers. An investigation, undertaken in good faith and prosecuted without fear or favor, untainted by tho sus picion of partisanship or rancor, and covering every stage of the industry, physical and financial, can not but bo of benefit to tho whole commun ity. If the coal operators and trans portation companies have been mis judged by public opinion, they should be eager to facilitate In every possible way tho most searching probe that a legislative committee could poBslbly inaugurate. The an thracite Interests are so important to this Commonwealth that there can ho no secrets relating to them from which the public should be excluded. They do not really realize that they are being fitted and enthused fori future service. About the first I thing to do Is to pray for the work-1 ers to come.

A new constable ou duty In a pro vincial town handed to a sergeant a shilling which be said he had found. The man with tho three stripes told him ho was quite right In acting as he had done. Proceeding on his round, the sergeant met a brother sergeant and. with a grin, told him tho tale of the shilling. They both agreed tho new recruit was very green, and at the conclusion of their duties they went to the nearest Inn, and the pos sessor of the coin called for two drinks. On receiving them he threw down the shilling to pay for them, but the land lord refused It. saying It was a bad one. The sergeant, notoriously mean, had to supply the requisite amouut out of his own pocket and also to put up with the laugh against himself. On bis telling the constable his find was n bad one tho man answered: "Yes. ot course lt was. Do you think I would have been silly enough to give it to you if lt hadn't been?" Pearson's.

Inquired Wilbur Rcaser, the New York portrait painter, "that whon my painting of Senator Al lison was hung In the lobby of the senate the precedent of forty years was broken?" Surpriso being expressed, Mr. Reaser explained: "It is a fact that since tho beginning of constitutional government the sen ate bad bought only nine portraits for the lobby. The first was Washington's and the eighth was Charles Sumner's. For almost forty years nobody was considered worthy to follow In the dis tinguished line. It was generally thought that no other portrait would ever bo added to the group, but when Senator Allison died, after serving longer In the senate than any other man In the history of the government, the rule wns broken, and bis picture be came the ninth."
