Pa., September 12, 1901. j lti an open letter published in the news j columns of the Freeland Semi-Weekly Progress, R. P. Robinson, Esq., of Wilkesbarre, advocates the nomina- | tion of I-aac P. Hand, Esq., of Wilkes- J barre. Pa., for the orphans' court ! judgship on the Republican ticket on j the ground of expediency. After read- I lug the article in question, one cannot : help but come to the conclusion that, in ; Mr. Robinson's judgment, the Republi can party of Luzerne county has hereto- j fore iN tlie matter of their nominations i made fools of themselves; have notnoini- I nated the right kind of men; as a cense- j quence some one whom he thinks emin ently qualified, should be nominated. We do not agree with Mr. Robinson in ' this. We think the Republicans of j Luzerne county have nominated an ex ceptionally strong ticket and one for which every Republican voter in the county can vote honestly and conscien tiously; and wo do not believe it would strengthen the ticket one vote to nomi nate a candidate' from the city of Wilkes barre for tliis position. In speaking of our candidate from the lower end, viz., George H. Troutinan, Esq., Mr. Uobinssn says: "Without ; any intention of disparaging the candl- I dacy of Mr. Trtutinan it seems to be the opinion of the Republicans generally j that it would be for the best interests of the party and our ticket to place the ; candidate for orphans' court judgship in | the city of Wilkesbarre." We have talked to a great many Re- j publicans iu Luzerne county, ami we are utterly at a loss to find the sources of Mr. Robinson's information in regard to what is the opinion of Republicans iu general. The masses of Republicans with whom we have spoken agree that Mr. Troutman's candidacy would he the very one necessary to strengthen the | ticket; hence, we are inclined to think t that Mr. Robinson's partisanship for Mr. Hand has made the public opinion of which he speaks in this letter. I have not one word to say against ' Mr. Hand or Mr. Xichollsas far as their ! qualifications, mental equipment and fit- j noss to properly (ill this honorable posi tion are aoncerned. I will leave that go I unquestioned. I have been a personal j friend of both candidates for a number of years and expect to continue so, but ai this time, as I have said before in an open letter to the Republicans of lower Luzvree couety, I think it is the duty of ' every Repuhiiean to stand by the home j candidate. Mr. Troutinan possesses all ! the qualification*. lie has lived among us fer nvnr twenty years. I have been his appanant in many a hard fought : fight. I have always found him honor able, ..pen and above board, and above | all, a wan of stainless character and tin- ! questioned ability—a man who will till thi< position as it deserves to he filled. ! Whan Judge Ilalsey was nominated, ww felt that tho lower end had partially secured a judge, hut the active work of tiie common pleas and quarter sessions rendered it necessary for Mr. Halsev to make hi* home in Wilkesbarre. The , work in the orphans' court will not re- i quire Mr. Troutinan to remove to Wilkesbarre and ho can lie of invaluable assistance to the people of tho lower end of Luzerne county in expediting the large amount of orphans' court business that is brought before him, without : leaving Hazleton. Mr. Troutinan has been a consistent! Republican through all the years that 1 Have known him, and there never has been a time during that period that ho I has not been willing to assist the Re publican party, both financially and ! otherwise. If there is anything in the question of gratitude for services ren dered I think we owe it to Mr. Trout man to give him this nomination, and then see that lie is elected afterwards. J woeld ask the Republican voters, i particularly of lower Luzerne county, whose loyalty to me in the past has been j unquestioned, and who have stood with me in many a hard fought political battle, to stand with me again In this question of nomination, and roll up a rousing majority for the lower end can didate, George 11.

A Broadway shoe manufacturer was asked what method of advertising he found most profitable. "Placing my men near the window," he said, "so they can work in view of the public. 1 don't know of anything that catches the attention of the passer by more quickly than the sight of a demonstrator sitting close to the win dow running a machine for dear life. "Manufacturers of all kinds of goods have adopted this plan. Waistmakers put their most skilled workers on exhi bition to show how the finest garments are cut and sewed. Cigar manufactur ers take the public i.ito their confidence and let them see the process of rolling as performed by the cleverest bauds. Men who deal in mechanical contriv ances have found that it pays to have at least one machine set up near a win dow so the crowd outside may observe the Intricacy of Its parts and the rapid ity of its action. Jewelers have station ed their most expert lapidaries within view of the street that possible custom ers may see how precious stones are cut and polished and set. "It Isn't everybody who can work in public. It takes a person with good strong nerves and concentration of thought to do difficult work in a show window. I have men in my employ who are excellent workers, but they get flustered when subjected to unusu al surveillance and ruin everything they put their hands to. I have tried some of them as window operators, but they can't get used to it. "A man who can run a machine at full tilt or paint a picture or fry pan cakes or iron a shirt In the full gaze of the public eye and not lose his head is an artist and worth several dollars more a week to ids employer than the more modest individual. And he gets It too."—New York Sun. MEN'S VIEW OF WOMEN. Earth has nothing more tender than a pious woman's heart.-—Luther. Remember, woman is most perfect when most womanly.—Gladstone.

TuklnK Sunday Collection*. An old and not yet obsolete mode of taking a collection in a Scotch church is by means of a ladle—a small wooden box at the end of a straight wooden shaft about four and a half feet long, the top of the box being sufficiently open to receive contributions of money. For all special collections this was tho usual mode in the chief churches of Edinburgh when I was a boy at school there 50 years ago, hut it has gradually gone out of fashion and is not often to be seen nowadays. For ordinary Sunday collections the general custom has been to have a metal plate or basin on a small table at the church entrance superintended by an elder—a mode which was often called the brod. When ladles are used, they are handed round the congregation by elders after'the sermon or after the last psalm, and the common Scotch phrase to "lift" the collection may have come from this custom.—Notes and Queries. Some Queer Verdict*. What is "a reasonable state of intoxi cation" apparently just missed precise definition by a coroner's Jury in Missis sippi which stated In its verdict tlint "we, the Jury, fiud that deceased came to his death by a stroke of an east bound train, No. 204. on I. C. Railroad, at Fentress, Miss., in Choctaw count}', he being In a reasonable state of intox ication." A somewhat similar lndefinitencss of legal conclusion mars a verdict of a neighboring Georgia jury to the effect that "we, the jury, fiud the defendant almost guilty." Equally ns uncertain and ambiguous as these statements by laymen Is the opinion in an early Maryland case which "acknowledges the corn" by say ing that an occurrence referred to took place "at a former sitting when the court was full." Too Liberal. Wife—Here's an advertisement In the paper that you'd better look into. It says a man Is wanted, and he won't be worked to death, and he'll get paid enough to live on. Husband—Says he xvou't he worked to death, eli? Wife—Yes; and they promise pay enough to live on. Husband—Some catch about that!— Pick-Me-Up. Mary's Fraction* Shier. "I suppose your baby sister cries some?" asked one of the neighbors. "Cries!" said Mary.

In a good mechanism the aim is not to play ev- I erything with an equal sound, hut to ; acquire a beautiful quality of touch and a perfect shading. "For a long time players have acted ; against nature in seeking to give equal power to each finger. On the contrary, each finger should have an appropriate part assigned it.. The thumb has the | greatest power, being the thickest fin ger and the freest. Then comes the lit tle finger, at the other extremity of the hand. The middle finger is the main support of the hand ami is assisted by the first. Finally comes the third, the weakest one. "As to this Siamese twin of the middle ; finger some players try to force It with all their might to become independent, I a thing impossible and most likely un- | necessary. There are, then, many dif ferent qualities of sound, just as there are several fingers.

Intoxication from the nectar and pol len of plants lias been a subject of in vestigation by Dr. J. M. Weir, Jr. This affects Insects, and it appears that tlie cosmos flower is specially potent as a , source of drunkenness in bees and oth er nectar loving creatures. A bee so drunk that it could scarcely get upon its legs was taken to the laboratory and placed about two inches from a cosmos blossom. It Immediately stag gered to the flower and began to suck the nectar and In a few moments tum bled over, a senseless and almost Inert victim of appetite. Drunken beetles found under the blossoms prove that the pollen must have the same effect as t lie nectaries. The experimenter swallowed a half j teaspoonpful of the pollen anil in about ! 15 minutes experienced a feeling of ex hilanation, with acceleration of tlie pulse and warmth. An Injection Into the arm of half a dram of liquid dis tilled from an infusion of the nectaries caused exhilaration for half an hour, followed by nausea. When EverythlitK Stick*.

There's always danger, for instance, in pulling out a drawer that sticks of pulling it clean out and letting it drop.
