What you call

The designer is

the shape of the
and out.
The Clothcraft designer has made style
his life's study and receives a very large
salary so why shouldn't Clothcraft Clothes
excel in style ?
The cutting must be quick and accurate
that's all. On some goods the Clothcrafters
use an electric machine with rapidly revolv
ing steel discs-rcutting many thicknesses of
cloth at once. That is one of the ways in
which Clothcraft Clothes are made possible at
the price.
There are no other clothes as good as
Clothcraft Clothes at the price, and few at
any price can equal them in fit and stylish
finish, or in wear.
A potent reason for this is the fact that all
Clothcraft Clothes are made in the Clothcraft
factory under direct supervision. That is the

UiLl& exami,ie
Citizens First.
Pennsylvania Patrons of Husbandry
are first citizens and then farmers.
Tbey rcnize the fact that a man's
first duty is to the state. To preserve
its existences the state will take not
only his property but even his life and
none count the claim unreasonable.
This claim of the state being admitted
the first concern of all should be for the
general good. None have more confi
dence in the good intentions and in
telligence of the great majority of the
people of the country than the members
of the Grange. Thoy are satisfied that
the interests of the farmers will not
suffer when fully mado known to the
public. The unequal burden of taxa
tion upon real estato and tho unjust
discriminations against farmers were
not laid upon them by the will and in
tention of tho majority. They will
accept government of the poople, by
the people through the Initiative aud
Referendum without any misgivings.

Important Business Change.
The American Hotel, in this pluee,

Messrs. P. E. and S. A. Hunter dispos

G. Huffington and Frank L. Voistine
for a consideration of $tiO,000. The
American is one of tho best known and
most popular hotels in Western Penn
sylvania, and enjoys a patronage that
makes it a good bargain, even at tho,

After ' Dead Beats. "
The newspapers of Clarion county
have an organization which has been
christened the Clarion County Publish
ers' and Printers' Association. Tt was
recently organized. One of the objects
of the Association is to get after the
"doad beat" who subscribe for a paper
and will not pay for It. We understand
that if a subscriber owes one of the
Clarion county papers three year'
subscription his name will be dropped
from the list, all the other newspapers
in the county will bo notified, and the
delinquent subscriber cannot get one of
the other county papers sent to his
address even though he offers to pay
in advance until he pays all arrearage
to the paper to which he is indebted for
three years' subscription.
There are other impositions that
newspapers are subjected to which this
organization makes provisions for.
The newspapers in Jefferson and other
counties adjoining Clarion county will
be requested to join tho organization.
The Colonel's Waterloo.
Colonel John M. Fuller, of Hjmey
Grove, Texas, nearly met his Waterloo,
from Liver and Kidney trouble. In a
recent letter, he says : "I was nearly
dead, of these complaints, and, although
I tried my family doctor, he did me no
good ; so I got a i)0e bottle of your great
Electric Bitters, which cured mo. I
consldor them the best medicine on
earth, and thank God who gave yo'i tho
knowledge to make them." Sold, and
guaranteed to cure, Dyspepsia, Bilious

Incredible Rruliillly.
It would have been incredible brutal

so I applied Bucklen's Arnica Salve,
which quickly healed it and saved bis

( Don't Qet Your Back Up.
PurentH, when your boy gots a licking
at school don't get your back up and
howl about it, but do your christian
duty by giving him oneyoursolf. Have
him to understand that ho will havo no
protection for his had conduct and it
will make a good man out of him some
day. Tho jails and penitentiaries are
full of men whose parents kicked when
ever tbey. received punishment, at
school. Never let your boy realize that
you sympathize with liim and, you will
havo no trouble with him at school, but
the moment he finds, ho has protection
at home for duvlllry, then he is almost
sure to provoke his teacher and make
trouble. Solomon said, whip tho way
out of them when necessary, and they
would be good boys, and when they get
old they would do thoir own likewise.

THE GRAY WOLF.
ill Cnnnlnir I Marvelous, and B fa
IHIIlonlt to Catch.
The cunning of the gray wolf is mar
velous, aud it is most dlfllcult to catch
uupplng. He somehow seems to
know that iron is associated with man.
A piece of iron anywhere will keep
him at a distance. If you shoot an
antelope, for Instance, and Just put
your spur on the carcass you may leavo
It as long as you like and uo wolf will
touch it. A pocket handkerchief will
do us well.
Lobo, a great gray wolf who was
the king of th pack at Currumpaw, it
vast cattle range lu New Mexico, was
a thinker ns well us a ruler. Ills puck
ate nothing but what they had killed
themselves, and thus poison was uo
good. At Inst a thousand dollars was
set upon his head. This brought a
noted wolf hunter from Texas, with
his puck of great wolfhounds. But
again there was failure. Then two
other hunters came with subtly devjs
ed poisons to work his undoing. Then
I cunie on the scene. First I tried
poison, and there was no combination
of strychnine, arsenic and prussic acid
which I did not use. I put the poisons
in cheese molted together with kidney
fat, and during the whole process I
wore gloves steeped in hot blood. And
I scattered the bait all over the ranch.
The next morning I went out and
found Lobo's trncks, with the bait
gone. I was delighted. I followed the
truck and found another bait gone
and yet another. Then I found the
three baits piled upon another one and
covered with filth. Lobo had evidently
carried the first three In his meuth
and had taken this means of express
ing his utter contempt for my devices.
But Lobo's downfall came about
through a big white she wolf who was
always with him. I managed to catch
her in a trap. Then I knew we should
soon have Lobo. Night after night he
came around the homestead and mourn
ed his mate In long, plaintive howls. I
knew he would try to find her body.
I set 10 strong steel wolf traps, and
in one of these I caught hlui a mar
tyr to constancy. And that was the
end of Lobo. -Interview With Ernest
Thompson Seton.
