The teacher wants, and tries po far as it does not conflict with duty, to get the good will of every pupil. Not only success depends upon it, but also the teacher's position in school. People should disabuse their minds of the idea that their children are "little angels." The pupil's life .cannot be continually adorned with posies. If he is to be trained to be a strong and useful man, be will meet some of the 'strenuous" before he has gone .very far in sobool. He ought to be told to be a man and tackle the difficulties that come up and master them, 'rather than to - be petted and spoiled by blaming the teacher for the trouble. A parent says that the teach er refused to find a word for her boy In the dictionary. We presume that mother "spreads" her boy's bread at meals, and probably feeds him his beans. New Bethlehem Vindicator. Rank Foolishness. "When attacked by a cough or aoold, or when your throat Is sore, it is rank foollshnees to take any other medicine than r. King's New Discovery," Bays C. O. Eldridge, of Empire, Ga. "I have used New Discovery seven years and I know it Is the best remedy on earth for coughs and, colds, croup, and all throat and lung troubles. My children are subject to oroup, but New Discovery quickly ouret every attack." Known the world over as the King of throat nd lung remedies.

Notice is hereby given that tte regu lar annual meeting of the stockholders of the Reynoldaville & Falls Creek Railroad Company will be held at the Company's office in Reynolds vllle Pa., -. on Tuesday, January 21, 1908, At 10.00 a. m. for the purpose of electing a Pres- ident and Board of Directors for the ensuing year, and the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting. Lucius W. Robinson, Pres. B. M. Clark, Sec. Nonce to Stockholders. Reynoldsvllle, Pa., Deo. 3, 1907. Notice is hereby given that the regu lar annual meeting of the Jefferson and Clearfield Coal and Iron Company will be held at the Company's office In Rey noldsvllle, Pa., on Tuesday, January St., 008, at 10.00 a. m., for the purpose of electing a Board of Directors for the ensuing year and the transaction of , .such other business as may come before .... ye meeting, r Lucius W. Robinson, Pres. Lewis Tseun, Sec T. D. Brewer Not Csndidate. T. D. Brewer, of this place, who is now emDloved at New Kensington, was at home last week, but we did not see him and were not authorized by him to state that he will not be a candi date for county "treasurer, however, from the Punxsutawney Spirit of Deo. 24 we clip the following: "T. D. Brewer, of Reynoldsvllle, was in town ycnterdny. Mr. Brewer has been favorably mentioned as a can didate fur County Treasurer, but, on account of the fact that Reyno'ds- ville Ib already well represented with candidates for that office, he has de cided not to run at this time. Mr. Brewer Is not only well qualified for the office. . but is deserving from a party standpoint and has many friends throughout the county who woum have rallied to his sunport had he re mained in the field. Should be de cide to be a candidate at some future time he will be a strong one." Soap Clubs. It is claimed that there are about fifty "soap clubs" in Reynoldsvlllo and West Reynoldsvlllo. There are ten mem bers in a club and each member must buy 110. 00 worth of groceries, 5cc. One lady, who is a membor of a club, says sue has been paying 35 cents per pound to the club house for coffee that she can buy in Reynoldsvllle for 20 cents a 'pound. The company that gives liberal premiums cannot sell high grade goods as cheap as you can buy the goods at home. Making people believe they are getting something for nothing is the bait that catches. These clubs send a large amount of money out of town that should be spent here, and in the long run the members of the clubs don't save or gain anything. A Higher Health Level. "I have reached a higher health level since I began using Dr. King's New Life Pills," writes Jacob Springer, of West Franklin, Maine. "They keep my stomach, liver and bowels working just right." If these pills disappoint you on trial, money will be refunded at Stoke & Feicht Drug Co. drug store. 23o.

He had a promising , filly. Queen Bertha, and she was the j favorite for the Oaks In 1S(S2. She had apparently fallen off lu condition, nnd her owner put no confidence In her. Falmouth was inclined to scratch her, when Mrs. Scott, John Scott's wife, spoke up for her favorite. "I'll lay your lordship sixpence she wins," said Mrs. Scott, laughing. For once Lord Falmouth broke his rule never to bet and exclaimed, "Dfone, Mrs. Scott!" So Quoen Bertha, with Tom AUlcroft up. appeared nt the post anil, thanks to the brilliant riding of her Jockey, bent Marigold by a short head for the first place. Lord Falmouth paid his bet to Mrs. Scott in noble fashion. He procured a brand new sixpence from the bank, had It set round with dia monds and mounted as a brooch and In that form presented it to the comely mistress of Whltewall. An Odd Place of Worship. Burma can show the oldest place of worship to be found anywhere In the world. Some miles out of Mouluieln, in the middle of, a great plain, stands a lone rock so peculiar in form as never to be forgotten after once seen. Ages ago the caves which honeycomb this fortress were transformed from the hnbltnts of bats and wild animals Into places of devotion. Thousands of linages of Buddha are carved on the wnlls, and In every chamber bronzo, stone or wooden gods are standing, sit ting or reclining in endless silence. It Is computed tbnt many millions of feet have pressed thearthen floors of these sacred caverns. Boston Transcript She Was Too Quick.

It was a hot afternoon, and Mt Perkins, who bad (taken the children, seven in number, to "the greatest shot on earth," felt the heat and was other wise much dissatisfied. "What's the nationality of them?" she demanded of one of the guards, pointing to the ele phants. ' "Those are from Africa," replied the man, and Mrs. Perkins looked dubious ly from the great animals to the guard nnd back again to the elephants. AThey appear dreadful light colored to have come from Africa, seems to me," she remarked, "and that giraffe's neck ain't what I expected for length, either, and there's only one double hnmper among the camels, and the hair's all rubbed oft him In spots. I reckon this Isn't the first show he's been In by a good deal." She detached the youngest Perkins from the monkey's cage and turned again to the attendant. "You tell the manager of this show from me," she commanded, "that I shan't pny 50 cents .for myself and f 1.75 for this mess of children another year to see light colored elephants and a giraffe and n kangaroo with slmrt necks and legs and a possy of single bumpers, with only one double bump er, and him secondhand! "You tell him that from Mrs. Phi lander Perkins, and tell blm I menn It too!" Youth's Companion. A Terrible Situation. There can be few more terrible dis coveries thau that the man lu your company has suddenly gone mad and that you cannot escape blm. That was the position of an old lady and her fe male companion when, Just as their train was gliding out of a London ter minus, a man popped into the carriage., and banged the door after him. The first stop was eighty miles away, and It seemed as far as eternity when the mah. produced from his pocket a num ber of razors and began to cut up an orange. The old lady gave her fur boa an extra twist about her throat. "Do you like orange?" sutd the maniac as he stuck a piece on the end of a razor and popped it Into her mouth. She ac cepted the gift with thanks, and he was anxious to feed her with more. She assured htm that she liked to eat her orange slowly and made it last. She had to make each portion given to her on the razor last her so long that there was still a piece or two left when the first stoppage and rescue came. St James' Gazette. English In Switzerland. At a certain hotel In a lovely Alpine resort to which many English visitors were attracted a new proprietor, de string to cater for such, had this no tke, of his own composition, exhibited In the reception room: "Gentlemen who come In this hotel not say anything about their meals they will be 'charged for, and If they should say beforehand that they arc going to breakfast or dinner, are if they say that they not have anything to eat they will be charged, and If not so. they will be charged, or unless they bring it to -tbe notice of the manager, and should they want not to say any thing, they must order the mauagcr for. and not any one else, und unless they not bring It to the notice of the manager they will be charged for the least things not, according to hotel rate. And no fuss will Ik? allowed aft eWard about it, and nothing will be allowed to deduct anything out of It." Pearson's. Fiddle and Grow Hair. It Is now a scientifically proved fact that music' exercises a great Influence on the growth of the hair. It is with good reason that great musicians, men as Paganlnl, Liszt and Padercwskl, are represented with a growth of hair v.hlch Absalom might have envied.
