WEDNESDAY. , JANUARY 30, 1907.
Though this year may hold for some
of a failure, loss and bereavement, yet
we may live a happy life in spite of all,
if our heaita are rightly attuned.
The political parties of this borough
have nominated their tickets for the
spring election, February 19, and it will
now be up to the voters to say who

A censut bulletin recently issued at
Washington shows that in 1900, 1.760,
000 children In the United States be
tween the ag s of 10 and 15 years, were
mytoyed as bread-winners.
The legislature passed a bill last
week enlarging the powers of county
commissioners to erect county bridges
and empowering them to construct new
bridges when existing ones are not
sufficient to accommodate traffic
Yesterday was Carnation Day, the
sixty-fifth anniversary of the birth of
'William McKlnley, our martyred
president, and the red carnation was
conspicuous in the buttenholc, or
pinned to the waist of men, women and
children in Rnynoldsville. The wear
ing of a carnation is a modest and yet a
beautiful custom to observe in remem
brance of a ncble man.
According to tables prepared by the
United States Geographical Survey,
Pennsylvania is fai ahead of any other
state in the union so far as the value of
her mineral products is concerned.
The total output of Pennsylvania for
1906 was $509,828,673. Ohio oomes next
with $169,203,710, and Illinois next
with $105,605,567. The rvneral pro
ducts of Colorado, supped to be reek
ing in mineral wealth, only aggregated
$59,290, 94 L
In January 1906, from 21st to 24th,
one year ago last week, we had the
warmest wave ever known for that
season of the year. It was a reoord
breaker. People sat on front porches
and enjoyed the balmy air, the grass
was growing green on the lawns, bees
and other specimen of insect life were
active, but it was different on the same
dates last week with the thermometer
registering 15 to 20 degrees below zero.
' Governor Stuart, who entered upon
his duties on the 15th Instant as chief
executive of Pennsylvania, began his
official oareer with a dignity and Intelli
gence that Is securing for him the con
fidence and respect of the people of this
' commonwealth, and It is hoped that he
will measure up to their expectations.
Bis recommendation to the legislature
so far are progressive and In line with
the greatest good to the people of the
state without being revolutionary.
Governor Stuart wishes It understood
that It is his intention to be the
eveoutive of the whole people and that
the promises of the platform whloh he
advocated before that people shall con
stitute a part of his administration.
It is a question whether the citizens
of another town In this section of the
state have subscribed as liberally to get
new Industries into their town as the
citizens of Beynoldsville have within
the passed eight years, which shows
that our citizens are interested in the
future prosperity of the town. Just at
present some of our citizens are dis
. oouraged because the people have been
Imposed on in several oases, but we
should aot give up the good work. Get
the board of trade organized and in
(rood working order and we will land
others paying industries besides what we
already have. We ought not to have
trouble In induolng capitalists to come
this way, as we have many natural
advantages that other towns do not
have. When proposition is presented
to the people for location of an indus
try a thorough Investigation should be
made, as in the Standard Tie & Equip
xnenr Co. proposition, and the towns
people willjiot be Imposed on again.
According to the new law which
went lnt effect on Jan. 1st all things in
the food and drink line are to be pure,
providing the new pure food law ac
complishes the ends sought by those
who framed it. Ignoranoe will not be
tolerated as an excuse for violating the
new laws. If there is any manufacturer
or dealer throughout the length and
breadth of the land who is not familiar
with its provisions It Is not the fault of
the Government. Factories will be
required to be open at all times' for
inspection. Labels must not in any way
misrepresent the product to which they
reattached. Artificial coloring matter
in food and drink will be largely done
way with. The Government is pre
paring for the strictest enforcement of
the law. Federal inspectors will be
kept busy buying samples in the open
market to be tested and analyzed. The
only way the retail dealor can hope to
eeoape tbr, penalty of the law Is to be
able to i'jow that the manufacturer or
wholesale dealer gave him a guarantee
liav tbe articles conformed with the
regulation.
How Disease May be Spread.
"Tbe danger of tbe dlaoa:-spivadinir
common drinking cup is an old etur,
but the warning cannot be tixi frequent
ly repeated in the hope of having it
heeded by more people."
When making this statement recent
ly, State Health Commissioner Samuel
G. Dixon added that he thought more
people were realizing that they jeopar
dized their health and lives when they
drank from the common oup in railway
trains, public fountains and otber publlo
places and were refusing to run the risk
of contracting consumption or some
other infectious disease.
He called attention to tbe increasing
number of people who, when traveling,
carried with them their own drinking
cup or bad a supply of inexpensive par
affin cups.
"It seems strange," said Dr. Dixon,
"that so many people who would not
tblnk of wiping their face on a towel
that a stranger has just used, will go
to a publio water cooler or fountain and
drink from a tin oup that may have
been used just before him by aconsump
tlve. "This cup probably has a turned up
rim in the crovice of which the disease
germs collect. The lower Hp is placed
under this in drinking and the germ of
tuberculosis left there by some previous
user of the cup is transmitted to the
mouth of another.
"The federal and state health au
thorities have been giving the common
drinking cup evil considerable attention
lately and the question of what laws or
rules and regulations that could be de
vised to bring about the abolishment of
the common drinking cup has been
widely discussed. In tbe meantime the
people should be urged to protect them
selves as I have pointed out, by avoiding
its use."
Unwise Economy.
Perhaps you know the economical
man who complains that in winter time
bis house is always cold. If you could
watch him regulating the heater the
chances are ten to one you would dis
cover that he hag a rooted prejudice
against burning enough coal to make
himself comfortable. He Is the same
man who complains of the frigid atl
tude of buyers toward his business, the
truth being that he won't spend money
in advertising to warm them up.
Neither a heater nor a commercial
enterprise can be run satisfactorily
without an adequate supply of fuel.
Unwise economy is waste. It Is unwise
economy to struggle along without pub
licity. DuBols Express.
The "big head" Is popular way of
expressing a common and very frequent
ailment. It arises from various sources,
but the real foundation is a lack of
sense. A little money developes It in
some people, a few good olothes gives it
to others, a little office, where a chance
is given to exercise a little authority, is
often the cause of it, while others get it
having a little better job than their
associates. The truth la no sensible
person gets the "big head." The one
who becomes stuok up and stiff-necked
from sources ef any kind, are weak in
the Intellectual caliber. New Bethle
hem Leader.
Every bullet that killed a soldier
struok some woman at home. So
every blow of intemperance that smites

temperance are as destructive to the
home as the fiery -element. Venango

Persons who are prone to detect
vanity and pride in the conduct of
others, said Plato, usually have a most
abnormal leaning towards these un
enviable qualities themselves, which
very fact precludes the possibility of
their seeing themselves as others see
them.

The
Laboring Man
Talks
Going my way? Yes, I'm a
little late. Stopped to buy some
bealshipt oysters tor supper.
'What are they?" "Why, noth
ing but just the finest oysters
you ever tasted in your life.
"Too dearforaworkfngman?"
That's where you are dead
wrong. They are the only oys
ters a poor man can afford to
buy. When you buy Sealshipt
oysters you get solid meats, and
you are not paying for dirty ice
water. My wife says that a pint
of bealshipt will go as far as a
quart of any other oysters.
And as for the flavoryou
come down some Sunday night
and my wife will give you an
ovster stew that will make vou
tnink you never tasted an oyster
before.
