THE HAWLEY POSTOFFICE.
Our neighboring and neighborly town is to be congratulated on Its fine
new postofflce which is without doubt one of the handsomest In the State
or even the country, for that matter, considering the population and size
of town in which It Is situated.
Wawley is justified in being proud of its recent acquisition.
:0:
PURE MILK AND BABIES.
The Association for Supplying Pure Milk to Harrlsburg Babies is to
be congratulated on the success of the charitable enterprise, as shown by
the first month's operations. It is certain that the health of many little
ones has been improved and there is little doubt that some lives have been
saved.
:0:
THE HAY CROP.
The hay crop has been heavily
the severe drouth. It Is about 20 per cent, below normal. Cattle feed
ers in the West are particular suffers, but recent heavy rains bring pra&
tlcal assurance of large yields In fall feed and silo stuffs. It Is noticeable
that the grain markets continue weak on the repair to corn and spring
wheat which will be effected by the needed downpour.
:0:
THE CHOLERA SCARE.
It Is gratifying indeed to be assured by so high authority as the
American Medical association that, in spite of the recent alarming reports
from New York to the effect that Asiatic cholera Is present, no alarm need
be felt.
Every safeguard and preventative measure to insure the detection
and detention of any steamship passengers infected by the dreaded germ
Is being taken in addition to the usual methods of the United States Pub
lic Health and Marine Hospital Service. The period of observation has been
extended from. 5 to 10 days and it seems certain that the awful scourge
will be successfully withstood.
:0:
ABOUT BOY SCOUTS.
Information given out a few days ago at the New York headquarters
of the Boy Scouts of America shows that they have tripled In number In
the last eight months.
The national headquarters is now spending money at the rate of ?G0,
000 a year and these expenditures will Increase In proportion to the
growth of the organization itself.
But who will say that the Boy Scouts are not worth fCO.000 a year,
or $000,000 a year? They are an army of little gentlemen, a reserve force
of good citizens, the patriotic future of an unpatriotic present.
When we are inclined to think that the whole country Is made up of
higher critics and that nobody loves the old eagle any more, we turn to the
Boy Scouts and take heart. There we find the good, old-fashioned patriot
Ism; the old-fashioned ideas of courtesy and manhood; the old-fashioned
respect for elders; the old-fashioned authority.

THE AMATEUR
PHOTOGRAPHER
We are receiving a number of
complimentary remarks concerning
this department and of the article
on color photography which we are
now running. This is chapter four:
" In one of the Drocesse3 of color
photography a glass plate Is covered
with an emulsion perfectly transpar
ent, and exposed In the cameras with
the glass side to the lens, and with
the film side backed up with mer
cury. In this way the brilliant mir
ror of mercury comes In close con
tact with the film and reflects back
upon Itself tho light which comes
from the lens. The film must be
transparent and thick enough for one
or two of the longest light waves to
be fully formed within It. Where
the light waves collide there will be
no Image; where they do not come
together an image will appear. The
result of this is that when a plate
has been exposed, developed, and
dried, there Is a film upon the glass
in which the image consists of a
series of layers of extremely thin de
posited silver separated by equally
thin layers of clear gelatin. When
these layers are seen In a light fall
ing upon them at a certain angle
they show colors Just as a soap bub
ble does. In this way parts of tho
original which are red appear in the
same color In the picture, and the
same Is true of' other colors, though
none of them Is exactly true to na
ture. "Another process employs three
different negatives. Suitable screens
are Interposed so that only those
rays are allowed to act upon the
plate which excite a particular color
sensation In the eye. They are usu
ally made of dyed gelatin or collod
ion hermetically sealed between two
pieces of perfectly flat glass. In
making pictures by this process a
photochromoscope, taking two pic
tures at once, Is used."

If you have any ambition to bear
yourself well, to succeed in life In
all ways as well as In the financial
way, which Is commonly understood
when "success" Is mentioned, you
must become aware of the fact that
you cannot live any kind of life you
may like for years and still havo
the highest character. It is the lit
tle Incidents from day to day which
make a man's character, and por
haps the strongest of all these little
Incidents are those which concern
the teatment of women and girls by
men and boys.
Furthermore, when you are deal
ing with the other sex It Is wise to
bear In mind that as you treat them,
so are you building up chaacter in
yourself. If you do not bear In mind
the courtesies of all kinds which are
woman's due, you cannot retain for
any length of time a pride In your
self, a satisfaction with your be
havior which is commonly called
self-respect; and without self-respect
you win nave a hard time of it Ir
the world.
The reDort Drlntpd in t.hn Inot
issue of The Citizen that JoseDb
Bauer was seriously injured at NewJ
burg, N. Y., is erroneous. Mr. Bauer
was hurt, but not seriously.
