With tho traffic department of the road they havo also concluded all arrange ments preparatory to transporting tho guard and visitors to tho camping grounds. Since it was decided that tho guard would camp at Gloncalrn, the Allegheny Valley officials havo had their hands full. Tho grounds which were original ly pretty, havo been Improved to such nn extent that they would scarcely be recognized.

They are In no way suggestive of straw. Well, then, this Is the reason: Strawberries were called strawberries because in ancient times the rustics wore wont to bring them to market strung upon straws. As they are now brought to market In boxes, they might more appropriately be called box-berries, but perhaps we had better lot it go as it is. Punxsutawney Spirit. As the result of a careful examina tions of the compulsory education law, Attorney General McCormio has given the School Department an opinion under which the law will not go Into force until next year. The law says that assessors must make a registry of the children at the spring assessment, but the assessment in the spring of 1895 had been completed before the law was passed, therefore the assessment will not be made until noxt spring, and the law not go into force until the fall of ISOfl.

Resolutions. At a regular meeting of Century Council No. 781), Royal Arcanum, held on Thursday evening, July 11, 1805, the following resolutions were adopted: Whkrkas, The Supremo Ruler of tho universe and Governor of all things. in tho exercise of His Omnipotent power, has removed from our midst and association our loved and respected brothers, John rlleKlngor ana A. A Jackson; therefore be it Jiwolred, That whilo we bow in humble submission to the Divlno will, we mourn with deep sorrow the loss of thorn who to us were true friends and brothers, who had won our highest esteem and our hearts' deepest affection and whose nobility and pur pose in tho work of Virtue, Mercy and Charity endeared them to us; and be It Jinmiwa, That In tho death of broth era Flieklngor and Jackson our Council and the Order are deprived of the ser vices ol brothers who by their devotion to the principles of the Royal Arcanum and the cause of humanity have left an example worthy the emulation of all woo may enlist under the banner or our order; and be it JCemlred, That we tender the mem' bers of the bereaved families the heart-felt sympathy in this hour of sad affliction, assuring them our friendship for the departed extends to those whom thev loved and commend them for con' solation to that Power, whose wisdom, love and morcy surpasses man s under standing and be it Iteaolved, That our charter be fit tingly draped in mourning for a period of thirty days, that these resolutions be spread upon the records of our Council and that copies be sent to the bereaved families, and that they be published in the Keynoldsvuie star. A.L. Keaojlk, Regent, L. A. Hays, Past Rogent, Com, M. J. Farrell, Secretary, ) At tho last session of the Legislature an amendment was passed on the marriage license law, which was signed by the Governor on June 18th. The amend' tnent makes a marriage license now good in any county in the State, Instead of simply in the county of issue. The party performing the ceremony must make the return to the office who issued the license. It would be well for clergy men and others authorized by law to perform marriages to make a note of the above fact, as there is a heavy fine for a failure to properly report within thirty days all marriages performed. The act went into effect at onoe. In all other respeots the law remains as It was. One of our exchanges remarks: "If you have frequent headaches, dizziness and fainting spells, accompanied by chilblains, epllepsey and jaundice, it is a sign you are not well and liable to die any minute. Pay your subscription year in advance, and thus make your self solid for a good obituary notice." An act of the last Legislature, which is of interest to constables, provides that on the third Tuesday of February, 1890, and trlennlally thereafter, the electors of every township and borough and, where the boroughs are divided into wards, of every ward, shall vote for and elect a properly qualified person for high constable in each ot the said districts, and a properly qualified per son for high constable in each of the said boroughs, and the persons so elect ed shall serve for three years. The constables all over the State were elect ed for three years last February. Previous legislation had done away with .the high constables. Now the constables will, apparently, have to run again for their offices noxt February. Ex. Mon's summer top shirts formerly 65 55, 45 cts., now at 40 cts. at People's Bargain store.

Eminent physicians of the Unit ed States, Canada and Europe have recognized its great value, and the re ports from dealers and patients are most favorable." "The Silver Truss, from its adaptabil ity, peculiarity of shape, and mode of application, adjusts itself to every pos ture of the body without displacement, and is worn with comfort." From Clin ical Lecture by Richard Davy, F. R. S. E., Surgeon to Westminster Hospital. "The rapid introduction of the Amer ican Silver Truss, and subsequent sale of them with gratifying success by the druggists, have demonstrated the fulfill ment of all claims made for them by the company. They are, unquestionably,' the neatest, lightest, cleanest and most easily adjusted truss of any on the mar ket, and almost every druggist who has stocked this truss pronounces it to be the truss of the future." "The wearer of a truss is always looking for some thing better, and it is, therefore, an easy matter to command attention when the American Silver Truss is brought to the notice of a prospective buyer. It la light and simple, made ot one continuous piece of metal, without nuts, sorews or rivets, and can be formed by the hand to the exact shape of the body, and when placed in position does not move." "Dr. J. A. Cominger, Indianapolis, Ind., formerly Dean ot the Medical College of Indiana, and Surgeon General of the State of Indiana, who has used this truss tor two years in fully ninety per cent, of his cases, recommends and endorses it as entirely satisfactory In more cases than any other appliance he has ever tested."
