The Penfield Pre. wisely remarks
that the habit of loafing about town in
a miserable one. Hot tor be out In the
loifst cutting firewood If you have
nothing else to do. Crowd of men nit
about tho public places in town and tear
to falters tho reputations of men, who
while thoy have faults, are doing quite
as much for the world as thoy arc.
Tho IVick and Southwest Coke com
panies of the C'onnellsville region have
posted up notices at all their works
that an advance of l.'i per cent In wages
will go Into effect the first of April.
This is good news to ten thousand em
ployees of that company. That Is the
kind of news we like to chronicle. We
hope other employers will do likewise.
Blon H. Hutler, the first editor and
proprietor of the DuBois Couritr, for
some time editor of the Brockwayville
Record, and the past few years editor of
the Bradford Era, has severed his con
nection with the Era to accept a posi
tion on tho Pittsburg Timm. Bion is a
brilliant newspaper man and will be a
good addition to the already excellent
paper, Pittsburg Timm.
This Is a peculiar world, remarks an
exchange. One Is struggling for just
ice, another Is floolng from it. Ono man
is saving money to build a houso, and
another Is trying to sell his for loss
than it cost to build It. Ono man Is
spending all ho can make in taking his
girl to tho theatre and sending hor
flowers, with tho hope of making her
his wlfo, while his neighbor is spending
what gold ho has In getting a divorce.
One man escapes all diseases that flesh
is hoir to and gets killed on the rail
road. Another escapes with a scratch
and dies with the whooping cough. Ono
man stands otT all his creditors and goes
traveling whllo another pays his debts
and btaya at home.
Here is something from the pen of an
unknown writer going the rounds of the
press, which will do to remember:
"Whethor you fight or work, don't
make too much fuss about it. The hen
cacklos aftor she has laid hor eggs.
The noise and zizzle of the locomotive
are not force. All force is silent. The
heehaw of the mule may startle you
but it is not nearly so dangerous as his
hind logs. Boar In mind that it Is the
empty wagon that rattlos most when in
motion. The noise of the drum la due
to tho fact that there is nothing in It.
Bear In mind that you can't startle the
world by jumping up and hollering
'Vvj." Thought Is the great motive
ijiower, and don't you fall Into the mis-
Jtakeof believing otherwise."
Tuoro is a severe law in the state of
Pennsylvania against selling cigarettes
to unyone under the age of 10 years,
and it la safe to assume that parents
will not willingly furnish tholr children
with cigarettes or give them money to
purohase them, but in spite of paternal
admonition and state laws many ohil
Jlroa are seen puffing the vile stuff that
"goes into manufacture of cigarettes.
Tho e (Toots are deadly. The poison, in
sidious and apparently almost harmless
at first, gets into the system, and once
there it Is as hard to uproot as the Can
ada thistle Is from land. Tbe taste for
the cigarette once acquired may be
broken, but it takes more effort than
most cigarette fiends can make, for one
of the chief attributes of the little pest
Is that it seems to so sap the vitality as
to leave its victim helpless to resist.
When one looks at it from the right
stand point the tax of one mill on building
and loan associations, as is proposed by a
bill now in the State Legislature, is an
imposition. Through the many build
ing and loan associations throughout the
statu, Pennsylvania takes the load in
thu prosperity of the working clossos.
Many homes are built at the cost of
what the house would rent for and if
this additional burden were put on the
associations it would oome off the stock
holders, the majority of whom are mem
bers of the associations because through
the association they expect to ultimate
ly own a home. These associations en
courage home building, encourage
economy and Industry, and better citi
zens is the result. Therefore the State
should onoourago aud foster such socle
ties. The borrower in these associations
pay a real estate tax and he should not
be asked to pay another tax. There are
12.10 associations In the state, with as
sets of nearly (104,000,000. Tbe gains to
shareholders are $17,000,000. The total
expense of carrying on the business of
last year was $381,000, or three oenta a
day to tbe four hundred directors doing
their business. There are 284,000 mem
bers and 1U.700 homes have boon built
by aid of these associations. Puuxsu
