(Special Correspondence to the Press.) Matamoras, Sept. 16. There has been aome discussion in this and adjoining states as to the practice under the free text book law of placing the old school books again In the hands of children. It Is oontended that disease germs may be, and often are transmitted In this manner. It might be well to have all old books thoroughly disinfected. The road leading to the old Wchinger farm has been greatly Improved by the use of the road machine. The same treat ment would benefit other streets in Mata moras. Wednesday, Sept. 9th was the twelfth anniversary of the marriage of Mr. Edwin M. Kimball to bis good wife, and it had been decided to quietly celebrate the event by Inviting a few friends, but the design was thwarted by the members of the Ladles' Christian Union of the Hope Church who turned out In a body and sur prised the happy couple. To make the event more enjoyable a large delegation of the Royal Templars of Temperance, of Port Jervls, soon arrived to wish them much joy and many happy returns of the day. These expressions also took on material shape in the form of a beautiful rocker which was highly appreciated by the grateful recipients. Rev. J. A. Wle gand made the presentation speech which was fittingly responded to by Mr. Kimball. A Five-o'Clock tea having been prepared all sat down and thoroughly enjoyed the repast, after which the guests departed with niany kind wishes for the welfare of the family. It was on the whole a day of pleasure for the entire family. The venera ble parents of Mr. KimlttUl who not long since celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their wedding, as albo Burr W. Kimball and wife, of Troy, N. Y., were present and added largely to the enjoyment of the oc casion. Burr W. Kimbull and wife left for their home In Troy, N.

He will without a doubt give a good account of himself in whatever school he may be found. An exodus of our politicians took place to-day to participate in the Democratic Convention to be held at Newton on Tues- d ay. It is probable that Augustus W. Cutler of Morrlstown will receive the nomination fur Congress. He is a pro minent and able lawyer and has been a o.maistent defender of the agricultural in terest for many years. The nomination this year is considered equivalent to an election. Uncle Samuel Sheets has been laid up some time by an attack of blood poisoning It developed from a small pimple or sore near the ankle, and got to be a very sort ous matter at one time. He is now im proving and we hope wlU soon be in im proved health. There Is a great joke out on our Demo cratic "Boss." He Is always anoopln around for McKlnley and Hobart badges and he recently discovered one where no oue but E. B. would think of looking fur It. For full particulars enquire of Wash Lantz, he knows all about it. The ooutluued Illness of Mrs. Lester Van Etten is giving her many friends throughout the valley much conoern.

The meeting to elect delegates to the Democratic Congressional Convention at Newton on Sept. 16 was held at the Hotel of H. K. Moutross Saturday afternoon James B. Fuller and C. K. MuCracken wore elected.

ITEMS or INTEREST. Propositions have been made to advertisers by several publications that if McKinley Is not elected at the coming presidential election their contracts are to be annuilea, and no payment is to be made for the advertising between the giving of the oontract and election day. This would seem to indicate that the publications in no way feared the result oi the election. news paper Maker. Milford, Sept. 11 1896. Editor Press. Sir. In your most esteemed paper I notice an article entitled. "Suppose you should be mistaken" I gladly take it up for the farmers who are likely to look at it in the way you put it. I will answer your query about like this. There is no fear of any such hasty calling upon the mortgagors, for the leaders, are better posted on money matters than we generally suppose, nor will sales be any more extensive than they are about now. But all the same Mr. Editor keep the farmers posted on those matters, it will do no harm if no good. As for interest, all good farmers will strive to get oat of paying that, and will attain what they strive for by pay ing off the mortgages, which will be much bettor. We will also soe once more a better and freer people. I should add that the month of Sep tember, the harvest month for farm ers, gives a great chance for think ing and the farmer will do some of it, for his own benefit. C. L Modern Marthas.

Whitening Fast. Whe& Dr. Roes last preached in North Wales a friend said to him one of those who are always remind' ing people that they are getting old "You are whitening fast, Dr. itees." -rne oia man ma not say anything then, but when he got to the pulpit he referred to it and said "There is a wee white flower that comes up through the snow and front, but we are all glad to soe the snowdrop, because it proclaims that the winter is over and that the sum' mer is at hand. A friend reminded me last night that I was whitening fast. But heed not that, brother ; it is to me a proof that my winter will soon be over, that I shall have done presently with the cold east winds and the frosts of earth, and that my summer my eternal summer is at hand.

" Wash ington Star. A Story of the Merry-Go-Round, The Christian Lady, and the Cow. With Other Minor Bvrnt Concerning the Hero of I'timillKe Alley. The merry -go- round and Its mauagor has boon having somo Interesting and novel experiences lately. The great smash up of last spring with their weighty matters pertaining thereto are written la history, and will bo found stored up In the archives of Sussex, and Pike counties. Some of the mnnagers later experlenoos are as thrilling as tho adventures of Don Quixote, and like his, should bo nnbalmed In printer's Ink for the amusement and benefit of posterity. To make them read able and not too offenslvo to good taste, the minor details of what accompany a drunken orgle In low life will be carefully eliminated, and such happenings recorded as should occur only when they are given the melodious name of the merry-go-round and Its managor is an Orator, Butchor,and Freeholder all rolled Into one. It will be remembered that the manager has often told you through his organ, tho Gazette, that tho carousel Is undergoing repairs, but that Is a mild fiction to lots of other things he telfc you through the same medi um, for while It may not have been In full bloom It has been considered safe enough for Its managor to take many experimen tal Hdes thereon since Its great smash up last spring. On Wednesday last the mana ger was spinning the Carousel on Spring street, Newton, and elsewhere around town, but while operating on Spring street It became a llttlo erratic in its actions, and got Its arms around a good Christian lady, mother of a grown up family, etc, right in view of numerous people on the street, and the Court House steps. No harm was done evidently, as the good Christian lady, mother of a grown up family etc, smiled and seemed highly pleased. Later in the day the machine got to running In a hdtol In Branchville and only by persuasion was it induced to go home without wrecking the hotel. A fortunate thing indeed for the villnge of Branchville. On Thursday after slight repairs the carousel went to Pennsylvania and only a mild spin was given it. But on Friday It got on the rampage and came near being the death of Its manager, In fact broke all its previous records. With Josh, the "Judge," and Its manager on board the start was made to soe how the machine would work In bo- curlng a chattel mortgaged cow without due process of law. As you romembcr,the motive power Is Jersey lightning. Well when It got to "Judge Sanitorlum" the tank was filled, and steam turned on, but enough pressure could not lie developed to draw the cow from hor moorings. Tho machlno was thon run up to "Bonoys," tho "biler" filled and the blower put on. This proved to be a dangerous proceeding for the carousel soon got be yond control as might have been expected from previous experience. While under great speed It run Its manngors stomach against a bundle of knuckles belonging to George Crone, and while the manager sat on his pants with the carousel In rapid gyration his head came In violent contact With a club, the property of Everott Crone. The machine now took the bit In Its teeth and made crooked tracks for Hainosville blowing off at short Intervals to beat the cars. Arriving at Hnlnesvllle In due sea son it is said the "Judge's" hostler ex amined the machine carefully and found the steam all out and the "biler" very weak, and in his opinion not safe to fill up again at once. The hostler there upon got most of the machine to bed in a box stall. The manager is In hospital somewhere near the head of "Paradise Alley" whenoe comes weeping and walling, and a call for court plaster and arnica that will clean up the old stock of all the drug stores In town. Sorrowful to relate, but it seems to be the managor instead of the merry-go-round that is laid up for repairs this time. Yours Ever COXEY No. 1. THE TEACHERS' WORLD. All teachers and friends of education are cordially luvltod to contribute whatever may be helpful or suggestive to others In this lins of work. Communications will be gladly received by the editor of this de partment. Mill Rift, Pa., Sept. 14, 1898. To the Editor of the Pike County Press ; Dear Sir. In reply to your communication concerning an educational column in the Pike County Press, I will say that I am of the opinion that a column devoted to education and the schools would not only prove of much interest to the publio, but would have a tend ency to bring out some of the best thoughts in regard to school work and to bring tho various schools of the county into a closer rela tionship. The newspaper reaches ,. nearly every home throughout the county and is a poworf ul agent In moulding the public mind and in creating in terest and enthusiasm in all sub jects concerning the publio welfare. The school interests of the county are of the utmost importance, con sequently it seems to me that an educational column would be a de sirable addition to a county paper. Beside the many teachers, there axe, throughout the county, experi enced individuals who are interested in educational matters, and who, it is to be hoped, will contribute to the column. Yours respectfully, Geo. Sawyer. Ripans Tabules. Ripans Tabules cure nausea. Klpans Tabules: at druggists. Kipans Tabules cure dizziness. Klpans Tabules cure headache. Ripans Tabules cure flatulence.
