a cucumber seed and started on a run

out of the garden, the cucumber vines
overtook him, wound around his legs
and throw him down; he ran his hand

Because apples are generally cheap
and plentiful people don't stop to
appreciate tho real value of the fruit
for medicinal purposes. We know from
a personal experience that apples are
very beneficial tn aiding digestion. The
Home Doctor Bays: "Apples are useful
in nervous dyspepsia; they are nutri
tious, medicinal and vitalizing; they
aid digestion, clear the voice, correct
the acidity of the stomach and are valu
able In rheumatism, insomnia and liver
troubles. An applo contains as much
nutriment us a potato in a plcasantor
and more wholesome form."
The press of the country contain
proofs dally that there are many jeop!o
who do not believe that, "a good name
Is rather to be chosen than great riches,
and loving favor than silver and gold."
at least they don't act accordingly. If
a person wants contentment and tho
real sweetness there is In this life, they
will find a good name better than riches,
and loving favor better than gold, and
yet it is hard to believe there is any
thing quite so good an gold, Judging
from the way we scramble for the yellow
stuff. However the gold Is a poor sub
stitute for loving favor or a good name.
King Solomon said: "I went by the
field of the slothful, and by the vine
yard of the man void of understanding;
and lo, it was all grown over with thorns,
and nettles had covered the face there
of, and the stone wall thereof was brok
en down. Then I saw and considered it
well: I looked upon it and received in
struction." The wise king summed it
up thusly: "Yet a little sleep, a little
lumber, a little folding of the hands to
sleep." By taking a trip over the
country with your eyes opened you will
be lead to believe, by the appearance of
some farms, that the descendants of the
slothful man whose field Solomon passed
by, are farming in Pennsylvania in the
latter days of the nineteenth century.
All the laws enacted, by the Legis
lature of this Commonwealth should be
published in one or two newspapers in
every county in the Stato, so that the
people will have little excuse for not
knowing what laws are placed on the
statute books by each session of the
Legislature. The Pennsylvania State
Editorial Association has taken this
matter up and the Legislative commit
tee of the Association will, doubtless,
frame a bill to be presented to the next
Legislature with this aim in view.
How can the people observe laws they
know nothing about? The Lajinlatitt
Record is an expense to the State that
could be done away with and this
amount would go far towards paying
the expense that would be "incurred in
publishing the enactments of the Legis
lature after the Governor bad put his
signature to the same. The legislation
of the present year is now in force and
at the present moment Is binding upon
very citizen of Pennsylvania. Yet the
. text of the laws will not be printed for
weeks, and even then the circulation
will be limited to justices, judges and
lawyers. Is It the proper caper to pun
tb people for not obeying laws of which
they have absolutely no knowledge or
notice? It may oust more money, but
why do tblugs half way ? It certainly
ooats the taxpayers of this state an im
mense amount of money to have laws
naoted, why not spend a little more
of the money to inform the people as to
what laws have been naoted ? The
taxpayer's money is frequently expended

Five Hundred Tickets Qiven Away.
Upon tho occasion of the recent
National Encampment of the Orand
Army of tho Republic, nt Buffalo, The
Daily JVrtrjt, of Pittsburg, by way of
compliment to tho organization, sup
plied 2'0 comrades with tickets from
Pittsburg to Buffalo and return free of
clinrge. It has been determined to do
still better next year.
The encampment of 18UH will be held
at Cincinnati, Ohio. The commander-in-chief
of the G. A. It. Is Gen. .T. P. S.
Gobln, a Pennsylvanlan. It therefore
behooves comrades of the Department
of Pennsylvania to make nn especially
large showing.
To help the event along The Daily
Xeir has decided to offer GOO railroad
tickets from Pittsburg to Cincinnati
and return, to be apportioned among
seven posts selected by the general pub
lic, us follows:
To the post whoso regular place of
meeting Is In Pittsburg or Allegheny
receiving tho largest number of votes,
I2.i tickets.
To tho post In Pittsburg or Allegheny
receiving tho second largest number of
votes, 75 tickets: the one receiving the
third largest number of votes, f0 tick
ets. Tho following Is to the posts whoso
regular pluces of meeting are outsideof
Pittsburg and Allegheny: The poet re
ceiving tho largest number of votes, 1(H)
tickets; the post that gets the second
largest number of votes, 75 tickets;
third, CO tickets; fourth, 23 tickets.
This gives all posts, whether large or
small, or wherever located, a fighting
chance for one of tho prizes, and a fight
ing chance Is all any Grand Army com
rade ever ankod. Selection of posts Is
to bo made by means of a voting blank
which will be printed on eighth page of
The Daily Xemi every publication day
bet ween October 1, 181)7, and July 31,
180H. This runs the contest ten months.
If you subscribe for The Daily jVtr at
once your own subscription will bring in
more than 250 votes before the close of
tho contest. It is not desired that
copies of 7'he Daily JVVtrs shall be pur
chased from agents or carriers In quan
tities. Every effort will be mado to pre
vent this practice. But The Daily
Act will feel honored to have comrades
of the G. A. B. Bnd their families and
friends become regular readers of Its
pages.
If you aro Interested in a post or a
comrade, begin reading The Daily JVVim
nt once and help make the coming con
test a lively one.
Everybody Called Him Uncle.
Last work's issue of The Stak con
tained an article nn the death and bur
ial of William McConnoll, one of tho
early settlors of the Beech woods,
and, honce we will not publish all of an
obituary notice received Saturday from
Rev. A. Z. Myers, of Aliens Mills, as
it would bo a repetition In part of what
we said last week, but the communi
cation contained some facts we did not
give last week and we publish that part
of tho obituary which is as follows:
Win. McConnoll was born in Centre
county, Pa., March 14th, 1820, and died
Sept. 2ftth, 1807, aged 77 years, 6 months
and 12 days. He was twico married;
first to Eliza Mcintosh. To this union
were born throe children, David A.,
living home, Nancy Cooper, living
on an adjoining farm and Reuben, of
Falls Creek. They were not permitted
to walk together In life long. HIb sec
ond partner was Katherlne Rogers. To
this union was given one daughter, Mrs.
Eliza C. Corbln, living at Sterling, Kan
sas. He was one of a large family and is
the ninth of a mature age that has been
gathered to the Beechwoods cemetery
to await the resurrection. Only one
brother, David, living near Brookville,
survives. Few large families are per
mitted at mature age to slumber in one
resting place. ' '
He was outspoken, frank of disposi
tion, and had won many friends. Since
knowing him and since in the commun
ity we have nearly all called him "Uncle
Billy McConnell." We do not know
who is or who is not a nephew or nlooe
and suppose we never shall, as old and
young ,dellgbted to call him uncle.
This speaks volumes as a neighbor,
friend and citizen. He never united
with the church, living his own quiet
way. He expressed a willingness to
die and seemed to long for release
from his sufferings which he bore with
remarkable fortitude.
Electric Bitters. .
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is tor
pid and sluggish and the need of a tonic
and alterative is felt. A prompt use of
this roodioloe has often averted long
and perhaps fatal byious fevers. No
medicine will act more surely in count
eracting and freeing the system from
the malarial poison. Headache, Indi
gestion, Constipation, Dizziness yield

Bunds at the Head.
Aug. J. Dogel, the leading druggist
of Hhreveport, La., says: "Dr. King's
New Discovery Is the, only thing thut
cures my cough, and It Is the best seller
I have." J. F. Campbell, merchant of
Hafford, Ariz., writes: "Dr. King's
New Discovery Is all that Is claimed for
it; It never falls, and is a sure cure for
consumption, coughs and colds. I can
not say enough for Its merits." Dr.
King's New Discovery for consumption,
coughs and colds Is not an experiment.
It has been tried for a quarter of
a century, and to-day It stands at the
head. It never disappoints. Free
