An exolinnge says: "There Is a beau tiful lesson taught to all children by pons and daughters who revcro their aged parents, and to seo on their hoary heads crowns of glory. Life with all Its burden and woes lies behind the old and it behooves not only their children but all of us to mako their ago a time of peaeo, Thore Is often but a short space left them wherein wo can show them gratltudo, tenderness and that sympa thy for Infirmity which becomes all of us who aro moving on towards a liko ago and infirmity." Tho poor dovil whoso family troubles caiiHo him to advertise bis wifo In tho county papers for having loft his bed and board is not alono In his sorrow Even tho posvssion of untold millions do not socuro domestic tranquility. The divorce proceedings in progress in some of tho wealthiest families on the contl nent show that human nature Is tho saino In the palace as in the hemlock dwelling. It is not woalth alone which secures happiness as tho discontented poor fondly imagine. Brockwayvillo lUenrd. Wealth Is often wished for by people who think that it is all that is necessary to bring happiness and con tontmont In this world. The man who is honorable In ull his dealings and Is earning enough money to provide com' fortubly for his family and has a con' -science void of offonse toward God and man, Is the happy man. A man once said to Sam Jones, "Jones, tho church Is putting my assessment too high." Jones aukod, "how much do you pay?" "Five dollars a year," was the roply." "Well," said Jones, "how long have you been converted?" "About four years," was the reply. "Well, what did you do before you were -converted?" "I was a drunkard." "How much did you spend for drink?" '"About two hundred and fifty dollars a year!" "How much were you worth?" ""I rented land and was plowing a "steer." What have you got now?" "I have a good plantation and a pair of horses." "Woll," said Sam Jones, "you paid tho devil two hundred and fifty dollars a year for the privilege of plow ing a steer on rented land, and now you don't want to give the God who saved . you five dollars a year for the privilege of plowing horses on your own planta tion. You are a rascal, from the crown of your hoad to the sole of your foot." West Reynoldsville School Notes. School opened Monday, Sept. 10th, under tho most favorable circumstances. Slnco then tho attendance has been gradually increasing. On Monday, pt. 24th, the number of pupils en- oiled In the dlfforont rooms was as fol- ws: Boom No. 3, Principal Mr. Mitchell teacher, 34; room No. 2, Miss White teacher, 43; room No. 1, Miss Butler teacher, 87. On Monday, Oct. Rth, fifteen of the most advanced pupils of room No. 1 will bo promoted to room No. 2. This will place fi8 pupils In room No. 2. and 71 pupils in room No. 1. Tho number of classes in room No. 2 will not bo in creased through this change, as the pupils who are to be promoted from room No. 1 are prepared to enter the lower grade of rxxim No. 2. The Board of Directors are making every effort possible to advance tho school. Pavements have been built, out buildings erected and the main building remodeled. Supplies necessary for the use of the pupils have boon fur nished with tho utmost promptness. A number of seats aro being ordered and In a short tlmo all pupils will bo comfortably seated. In cases of absence or tardiness of pupils an excuse is required, upon their return to school, personally or In writ ing, from thoir parents or guardians, stating tho reason of such absence. A imilar oxcuso is required of any pupil wishing to go homo before the hour of dismissal. Tho progress of the pupils depends on regular attendance, punctuality and study; and It Is requested that the par- nts co-oerato with tho teachers In securing theso, as they aro the essential menm to tho pupils' advancement. Pupils who full to tako tho monthly examinations or final examination shnll not bo promoted until they have proved themselves worthy of promotion by a special examination. Pupils will not bo admitted to the school building until tho ringing of tho bell at 8.30 a. M. Tho examinations for tho first month will bo hold on tho 4th and 5th Inst. Some advanced thinker has sprung a startling scheme upon an awe stricken world. It is nothing loss than that of digging down Into the bowels of the oarth to get all the heat we need. If we go far onough, says the advanoed thinker, a couple of miles or so, we shall tap tho Internal heats of the earth, and we can pipe It any whore we like, like tho heat which passes from your furnace in the collar to the registers in the vari ous rooms of your house. Thia heat can be ' used to manufacture steam at will. Thon, too, It would be the easiest thing in the world to get to the north pole. If wbon an explorer has got as far north as he could, he should simply dig down till he struck a vein of inward heat. He need only let It sizzle out to warm everything around thore and make a torrid temperature such that pineapples and bananas could be grown. This would be bis base of supplies, whore be could live the year round From It he could sally fourth at the be ginning of warm weather and get to the pole in time to dig another two mile bole there. Then on the tip-top of the pole itself be oould plant the Amerloan flag, and underneath it be oould plant likewise another pineapple and banana patch. :Aa to digging the bole two miles deep, me ouvanuea mwKor sayi that is nothing at all mere ablld'i play.

Superintendent of Public Instruction Sohooffor issued a proclamation recom mending the observance of Friday, October 10th, as autumn arbor day, and earnestly urging teachers and superin tendents to adopt a suitable programme of exorcises, including the planting of one or more trees. He also recommends that attention be drawn to the fact that It is best to plant native troes and that the young people should bo taught that It is better to plant the elm in damp soil, the white oak and the sugar maple in richer, drier soil, than it is to plant the too short-lived horse chestnut or the silver maple which is too weak for its enormous size. Hard Work for the Editor. Somebody said once that "the only thing that walks back from the tomb with tho mourners and refuses to bo bul led Is character." A fow weeks ago a newspaor said many of the people of the town in which it is published are doing all In their power to render it imjiossible for tho editor to write them a decent obituary notice. There Is food for thought in both theso sentences. A man ought to strive after a good char actor, one which will remain with his children after he is gone, of which they will be proud. And ho ought to think sometimes of the preachor who will conduct his funeral services and the newspaper man who will write his obituary notice and mako their task as easy as possible. As It Is these useful mombers of society find themselves often driven to tho extremity of embar rassment by the necessity of saying something that will sooth the anguish of surviving relatives whilo It does not pervert tho truth. Men and women should bo thoughtful enough to conduct themselves so as to deserve a good obituary send-off. In that event the conscloncos of tho preachor and the re porter will not trouble thom.

The Dubois Qntritr last Friday morn ing contained an account of a special mooting of tho malo mombers of the Presbyterian church at that place and the following paragraph was ap pended to the article: "Tho Presbyterian church has Bomo quiet men in it. Some of thom are so very quiet they not only do not wish to say anything themselves, but do not care much about going around to hear tho minister talk. They aro llnblo to drift Into such an easy state of quietude that a few harps on the other side would bo a great annoyance to them." Reynoldsville has a few such profoss od christians and they are not all mem bers of the Presbyterian church either. A Profitable Investment.

The deal which places the Brock m'.nes in the hands of the Shawmut coal company has been officially an nounced to have taken place last week. On the 20th instant George Molllnger, superintendent for the Shawmut coal company, came down and took formal direction of the mines. The mines are transferred to the Shawmut company by lease instead of purchase. The deal has been pending for about two months, and although it may have been closed some tlmo previously the public announcement was not made until the 20th, when Superintendent Molllnger took formal charge. Brockwayyille Record. The formula of Ayer's Sarsaparilla is well known to the medical profession, and universally approved. The reputa tion of the firm guarantees excellence and uniformity in the medicine, and the world's experience for nearly half a cen tury has fully demonstrated its value, An exchange says that no matter how hard a man may struggle to do right there Is always some sneaking scoundrel, some loathsome reptile, some pimple on the face of nature, some wart on the hand of destiny trying to pull him down. Many a man fails, not from a lack of merit, but from lack of appre ciation by his fellow men. Failure in life is loss of confidence in ones charac ter. Wbon you see a man faltering, take bim by the hand and help him up; when you see him climbing, cheer him on, that he may roach the top and stand on the summit of success, providing you believe the man to be honest.
