THE CITIZENS NATIONAL 'BANK FORMER RESIDENT OF TOWN ' DIED IN BUFFALO LAST WEEK i1 .'.f'fVf ' I fl" H t 4 !i 4 dhmV- ' DAVID B. WILEY, DECEASED. Homely Advice. The editor of tha Altoona Tribune oherlshes some old fashioned Ideas, albeit they are bot at variance with good common sense. One Is that a great deal of a man's leisure time should be spent at home In company with bis family. Another Is that the mother should permit neither society functions nor anything else to Interfere with her duties to the children grow ing up In her home. And still anothor Is that the children and young people should form no bad habits, make no engagements that keep thorn awao from home tbe majority of the evenings of etch week, or that keep them out of the house until a late hour of the night. He Is convlncod that the home In which parents and children spend much time togetbor Is a better home than the one whiob Is only an eating place, a Bleeping resort, a harbor when no other spot Is available.
