the stewardship of those entrusted with
the management of the financial affairs
of the county. The amount of county
bonds outstanding January 3. 18118, was
$00,500; cash in treasury at same time
$10,080, and the liabilities of the county
over assets 18,000. During the year
1808 county bonds to the amount of
$10,800 were redeemed, and the forth
coming statement of the county com
missioners will show that on January 2,
1801), the assets of the county over the
liability was $13,000, the asseU in part
being made up of 112,000 in the treasur
er's hands, and $25,181 outstanding
taxes, a considerable portion of the lat
ter amount having been paid into tho
county treasury by the collectors since
tho settlement. This is certainly a
gratifying exhibit to place before the
taxpayers of the county. It Is conclus
ive evidence that the present board of
county commissioners are carefully
guarding the people's interests, and
thut in their efforts in that direction
are receiving the assistance and sup
port of the other county officials.

Have You Had It?
The epidemic of grip continue In
Reynoldsvllle and vicinity. In the ma
jority vt Instances, however, the disease
I very mild and even In serious cases
an ablu bodied man Is not confined to
bed much more than a week.
There aro many people suffering from
more or less severe colds, who fondly
Imagine they have the grip, and tell
everybody who will listen to tholr woes
that It Is so. The grip Is n much more
severe ailment, even in Its mild form,
than a cold. When ono gets the grip
there Is no doubt about It.
Vast quantities of quinine are being
bought at drug stores as a precautionary
measure by thoso who Imagine they are
getting the grip.
The peculiarity of the disease is that
at first the nverngo man does not give
In to It, but continues working, although
In a stato of seml-collnpsu. He bears up
against It, hoping ngnlnst hope that he
has nothing worse than a cold. Soon
he has to go home and as soon as the
doctor Is called in the victim has to take
to bed.

Marketable Produce.
"The farmers In this neighborhood,"
remarked a prominont merchant the
other dny, "have not all learned the
Importance of sorting their produce and
fixing it up nicely for market. Many of
them still cling to the idea that pota
toes are potatoes and beans are beans
and butter Is butter, no matter whether
small or large, clean or dirty, tweet or
strong. It is a big mistake. By put
ting a few small potatoes In with a wag
on load a farmer will have to take five
or ten cents a bushel less for the whole
lot. By properly sorting thorn be
would have the small potatoes to feed
his stock, and would got more money
for what ho sold. It is the same with
everything he has to sell. A few pounds
of bluek beans or a few rotten or
bruised apples, detract from the value
of the whole lot. And a man who
brings bad butter to market once, Is al
ways thereafter carefully watched.
"I can toll from the looks of a farm
er's team and wagon," continued the
merchant, "whether his produce Is nice
aud salable or not. It is the man with
the mean looking wugon, boney horses,
and dirty harness, who brings tho little
potutoes, rotten apples and rank butter.
When people drive up hore with Ono,
well-fed horses, a nlco hack or wugon,
and offer something for sale, I take It
for granted that It Is all right, and I'm
not mistaken once In a hundred times.
The old saying that you can't always
judge by apearancus, Isn't true. You
can judge by appeurunces every time if
you undorstund your business and make
a study of those mutters. Mercantile
