Each of us la hound to see that out of that small circle the widest trood may flow, says Dean Stanley. Kaeh of us may havo fixed In his mind tho thought that out of a single house hold may flow Influences that shall stimulate tho whole Commonwealth and tho whole civilized world. A younjj farmer who lives near Belle fonto has hit upon a happy thought to reduce, the amount of labor required to till his fields. Instead of laying nut hid fields square or nearly so ho has laid them out narrow and they extend the entire length of his farm. By thla means he avoids turning corners so many times, which is a loss of time. He can reap ten acres of grain hy going up and down the field six timed. In Parisian society there are at least a score of impeccable, unimpeachable families who, to keep up their social position, are subsidized by matrimonial agencies, writes the Paris correspondent of the New York Times. They specu late upon their names, their situations, their acquaintances; they hire out their drawing-rooms and their guests. They receive a groat doal of company, and present to each other such persons as are designated to them by the broker, and, In addition to their monthly sub vention, are remunerated from the com mission after the marriage has been celebrated. Tho best and happiest wife In this and tho next generation, says an ex change, is and will bo the nelf-gupiiort-Ing woman. It is so evident that arguments and proofs seem superfluous. From a severely practical standpoint, a woman who has made her own living knows the value of money, has had ex perience in making it go as far as possible, has gown all the wild oats of small extravagances and subsequent scrimping that make trouble In many new homes. A dollar to hor represents so many hours' work, not a fow coaxing words addressed to papa. She knows what kind of a home It is ploasant to omo to after a tiring day's work and what sort of breakfast is the best foundation for eight hours' toil. She has been Used for so long to look after herself that it Is almost heaven to have some one ask If she had hor rubbers on this morning, and the trifling attention will be repaid by a devotion to socks and buttons which tho masculine mind will enjoy while it may not entirely un derstand. Make right and holy use of the tongue, writes the Rev. T. De Witt- Talmage. It Is loose at one end and can swing either way, but it is fastened at the other end to the floor of your mouth, and that mukes you responsible for the way it wags. Xanthus, the philosopher, told his servant that on the morrow he was going to have some friends to dino, and told him to gotthe best thing heeould find In tho market. The philosopher and his guests sat down tho next day at the table. They had nothing but tongue four or five courses of tongue tongue cooked in this way and tongue cooked In that way, and the philosopher lost his patience and said to the servant: "Didn't I toll you to get the best thing in the market?" He said: "I did get the best thing in the market. Isn't the tongue the organ of sociality, the organ of eloquence, the organ of kindness, the organ of worship?" Then Xanthus. said: "To-morrow I want you to get the worst thing in the market." And on the morrow the philosopher sat at the table, and thore was nothing there but tongue for or five courses of tongue- tongue in this shape and tongue in that shape, and the philosopher again lost his patience and said: "Didn't I tell you to get the worst thing in the market?" The servant replied: "I did, for isn't the tongue the organ of blas phemy, the organ of defamation, the organ of lying?" Employ the tongue which God so wonderfully created as the organ of taste, the organ of articula tion, to make others nappy, and in the servioe or uoa: "The 8tory of Our Christianity."

From those times tho history of Christianity is traced through its biicivhhIvo staged of development, showing tho reader the sorrow-d and affliction that tho faithful have been called uMn toenduro in timed past and concluding with a glance at tho happier conditions that now prevail, when every man In our enlightened land Id five to worship Cod according to the dictates of his own conscience. This story of the grandest cause that ever came to hltws the earth cannot full to be a source of help always to tho people of our day.

STOKE, Registered Pharmacist. Two for One. We are making a special offer to each of our readers paying a year's subscrip tion to the Star in advance, and to all new subscribers paying in advance, we will give them the best locul paper in Jefferson county and will give them free, either the iromatih'tid or Ameri can Fanner, for one yoar. The two papers above mentioned are excellent monthly papers and the subscription price of each is 5(k, a year. This offer is made only to those in Pennsylvania. An exchange has the following: Tho Pennsylvania company is about to dis card the old method of stamping tickets with ink and will punch the year and day clear through the ticket by means of powerful stencils. This is done to keep scalpers and others from altering the date and thus extending the limit of mileage book and excursion tickets. The orders state that all tickets are to be stamped as prescribed. When one thinks of the thousands of special ex cursion tickets sold on July 4th and other occasions, the work devolving upon the agent may be imagined. A peculiar feature Is that the month does not appear. Everything is reckoned in days of the year, "20th, 43rd or 251st," as the ease may be. Following the day stamp is the final figure of the year, "4" remaining until next January. A School-Olrl's Meditation. In Hip school room I nm ulttliut, Wllh niv hook nil stn-wn nhuiit.

The notes bear tho portrait of Martha Washington, are of the series of 1891, of check-letter A, and signed J. Fount Tillman as Register, and D. N. Morgan of the United States. Tho counterfeit notes have the actual silk threads In the paper, but the general appcarenco of the note Is not good. Tho work appears dark on both face and back it Is similar to a badly printed noto with sticky or thin Ink. Tho centre lathe-work on tho face of tho bill Is as good as the genuine, but the stipple or other fine work alxmt the portrait, tho small lottorlng above It, and the whole boarder Is bad work; and the parallel ruling for the number panel in the lower left cornor Is especially bad. Tho bluo numbers are also bad. Pay no attention to tho threads In the paper as such only deceive: you. Tomatoes 10 cents a can at Schultze's. Life is a Lottery, Perhaps, But you can't afford to take any chances when you're sick. Don't let tho druggist enrich himself at your expense. Lookout for impure drugs.
