Hard Hearted Justice Refused To Marry on Credit. It is told in Big Run that a young couple called on one of the justices of that place recently and wanted him to get them a license to marry. The squire, like Barkis, of course was quite "wlllin,"but when it appeared that he was to pay the expenses and wait for his money, indefinitely, he respectfully de clined advancing the funds In this way, and advised the young folks to go elsewhere for their license, as he wasn't engaged In that kind of speculation at present. The young folks drove off disconsolately, but it was noticed the young lady was the braver of the two as she was patting the young man on the back presumably to encourage him to better luck elsewhere.

Say advertised and give date of list when calling for above. S. M. McCreight, P. M. The Big Run Tribune states that it is probable that the two street car lines now stopping at either end of that village will be joined before snow files. The improvement la badly needed. At present the person getting off one car must walk almost a mile before coming to the other terminal, and about the only consolation is that Big Run can show to the, passers-through more costly andpretty homes than any other town of size in the county. The threatened strike on the Pennsylvania Railroad has been avert ed. A compromise, the terms of which were not made public, was reached Monday night at Philadelphia. Subscribe for The Star.

Damage To Potato Foliage. " Will you write me what Is the mat ter with the inclosed potato leaves, and send me cure for the same? Thus wrote a lumberman of Marietta, Pa. , to Prof. H. A. Surface, State Zoo logist, in sending some specimens of damaged foliage of potato vines to him for information. Tue followlug reply was aent: '' "The potato leaves which you Bent to us show the chief injury to be the Flea beetles, and next, what Is apparently the Early Blight. The ' preventive would have been tohave sprayed with Bordeaux mixture and arsenate of lead. Even yet it is not too late to prevent fur ther damage from these causes. Use three pounds of bluestone and four pounds of lime in fifty gallons of water, and to this add from two to three pounds of arsenate of lead or one half pound of Paris green. Spray thoroughly, and whenever it is washed off by hard rain, qr once every two or three weeks. If the arsenate of lead is used. It need not be repeated as often as In using Par Is green. This will also poison the pot ato leaves, so that the potato beetles will not attack them." Saved at Death's Door. The door of death seemed ready to open for Murray W. Ayers, of Transit Bridge, N. Y., when his life was wonderfully saved. "I was in a dread ful condition," he writes, "my skin was almost yellow; eyes sunken; tongue coated; emaciated from losing 40 pounds growing weaker daily. Virulent liver trouble pulling me down to death in spite of doctors. . Then that matchless medicine Electric Bitters cured me. I regained the 40 pounds lost and now am well and strong."

THREATEN TO RAISE INSURANCE RATES IN TOWN On Account of jhe Conditions In Rear of Business Blocks. An Insurance inspector for one of the largest companies represented by an agent in Reynoldsvllle, visited this place last week and after examining the rear of many business places on Main street gave his local representative warning that unless there was a radical improvement in conditions there would be an Increase in insurance rates to property holders and business men In the center of town. The objectionable conditions arise from the numerous old wooden barns, sheds and ware rooms, veritable fire traps, that duster so thickly along Cole and Swamp Alleys, often almost adjoining the main build ings on the front of the lot.
