Only a few days more remain of the summer vacation before tho schools open. Tho young people have had a good season for recroation, and havo enjoyed the whooling, camping, boating and dancing until perhaps thoy are somewhat tired of those sports. Thoy can enter npon the studies which are to bocome their future moans of living with ronowed vigor. Probably there will be soma restlessness at the be ginning and it will seem hard to toao down to study, but this fouling must be promptly overcome, for the scholar, who is wiso will realize that the more closely ho npplios him solf now tho easier it will be when he goes out in tho world to conquer the difficulties which besot tho path way to success. PURE FOODACT. Tiio agents of the Stnto Dairy and Food Commissioner last week ciusod tho arrest of soveral parties in this county for violations of the act of 1895 whfbh is very stringent in its provisions, defining what shall be deemed " adulterated food" and providing a penalty for viola tions. It may seem severe to en force this act m the case of parties who without any intention to do wrong buy their goods of responsible Anns, and pay a f.iir rn-ioo for them supposing that they received a gen uine article. Thero apjKtars to bo only one remedy for merchants and others who doairo to live up to tho letter of the law, and that is to deal only with reputable houses, and wiiero they are out of tho state, to r (uiiv a suljleiont guarantee that the f!'oJs arc as represented and if nut so after proper tvts that the seljing firm will be responsible for any fine which may Imj imiiospd. Our merchantH, in this section nt least, buy largely in New York and if those firms declino to enter into any agreement to indemnify their innocent customers they should be let aloiio. The la w is equally for tho protec tion of t lie consumer who presumes that he gets what ho pays for, and if f he manufacturer or jobber with a desire to enhance profits, adulter ate or mixes his goods and palms them elf ns pure, the penalty should fall on the real offenders. No Im putation should be cast on tho leg islature which enacted tho law or the commissioner who enforces it, that n league existed or exists to compel merchants to buy goods of Pennsylvania dealers. New York merchant are just ns well prepared t j comply with every requirement of tho net ns nro those of Philadel phia or nny city in this Htiito, and if they nro unwilling to fully protect their customers, then it is right nnd proper that our retail dealers should look to their own interests in buying. Tho wholesale dealer in New York can nrrango to havo redress upon the manufacturer hence no one will necessarily bo injured. If a custo mer wishes a cheap commodity he can procure it, and tho law does not prevent tho sale of such provided it is properly labeled, but when you buy coiTco for old government .Tavn and pny n price proportionate you do not. wnnt a compound with 75 per cent, of ryo or pens, or other sub stances. The net does not harm nny custo mer by compelling him to pay high er prioos, it Dimply ensures him the worth of his money in nny grade of goods ho desires to buy and use, provided tho mixtures or compounds uro not injurious to health. Point! on local Newspaper. Thcso are some of the points vhich should bo made : The promin ence and usefulness of tho local newspaper in building up a town. Its usefulness to the churches' in dis seminating religious information and drawing people to tho service. The pride and satisfaction it takes in tho progress and growth of the town. Its value as n medium by which a town's advantages mny be advertised to the world. Its relia bility ns a means by which the char acter nnd intelligence of n town's people may bo judged by outsiders. It freedom from tho sensationul and demoralizing features. Its in iluonoo in local affairs, and finally tho ambition of the editor, ns a rule, to so conduct his paper that it will onjoy the confidence and rosject of tho community in which it is published. It ta always gratifying to receive testimonials for Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and when the endorsement is from a physician ttis especially so. "Thore is no more satisfactory or effective remedy than Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhooa Remedy, writes Dr. R. E.

Hume of these Inntltutlons took the ground that they an employ In each institution 6 per c-tit of the number of Inmates eonlined In all cif the Institutions. Deputy At torney General Klkln holds that this Is not a proper construction of the law. He says that each Institution must be trouled separately, Bnd that the per centage mentioned In the act must be held to mean 6 per cent of the. number of Inmates confined In each Institution.

The commission rhaiKcd by the leg islature with the erection of a new cap Itol Is llndkiK Its task a much mors difficult one than was anticipated by the memburs when they Invited- the architects of the country to submit designs two or three months aio. Gov ernor Hustings returned from liello fonte lust Wednesday nlsht and on Thursday met the commissioners at the executive department. Those present were Plate Treasurer Haywood, Au ditor General Mylln, Senator MeC'ar rcll, the president pro tein. of the sen ate, and Speaker Hoyer, of the house. Trofessor "Warren P. Laird, of Phila delphia, the architectural advisor of tlvj commission, was also present and gave all the assistance In his power during the consideration of the plans. A rt w days ao the three experts wont over the 30 plans on file and made a selection of elnht In the order of merit for rec ommendation to the commission. At the meeting on Thursday Professor Laird read the report of the hoard of experts. In which they gave their reasons for selecting- those plans which have been referred to the commission. As each plan hears a number, Instead of the name of the designer, no one will know whose plans have been rec ommended until Judtre filinonton opens the numbered envelopes In his posses sion, which contain the names of the competing architects. Having been unable to reach a con clusion on Thursday the commission met again the following day and spent several hours inspecting the pluns und considering In every detail the import ant subject. It was finally decided to postpone a decision on the matter until next Thursday. A decision wus to have been announced on Saturday last, but the commissioners found It Impossible to make up their minds within the time limit, and In order to fully consider all the points Involved they extended the time. It having been reported that the plans Involve more money than the legislature had appropriated, Governor Hastings wns asked whether this was true. He said: "There were elKht plans submitted to us by the experts, and of seven of these the highest cost was IG18.0O0. The eighth plan, that selected as No. 1 by the experts, was estimated to cost IGJIi.OeO, but the architect ex plains that he can modify It so as to bring the cost within the sum appro priated I5S0.0OO." The governor says the building will be of the colonial renaissance style of architecture, and the west front, facing the river, will be exceedingly handsome. It Is prob able that the contract will not be given out before the middle of September. Cheering Industrial Htntlntlcs. An Important showing of the reviv ing Industrial and business Interests of the state Is contained In a statement prepared by W. C. Farnsworth, Jhir corporation clerk of the state depart ment, who has entire charge of the charter business of the department. It Is through this department that all cor porations receive their charters and are authorized to Increase their capital stock, and to extend their corporate privileges, so that the business of the department Increases or decreases as the state at large Is prosperous or de pressed. During March, April, May, June and July of 1AU8 the manufactur ing and mtscellan&ous charters repre sented a capital of 117,812,000, the build ing and loan associations $16,650,000 and railroads and street railways 11,418,000. Corporations increased their capital stock and Indebtedness for the pur pose of extensions and Improvements to the amount of S3.751,0oo, making an aggregate amount of capital represent ed by the transactions tor the period of l2,20,000. For the corresponding pe riod of lKi7 tb.e( manufacturing and miscellaneous corporations chartered represented a capital of 20,SO6,OO0, building and loan associations $19,3!0, 000, railroadB and street railways 13. 767,000 and Increases of capital stock and Indebtedness ill9,472.0O0, making an aggregate amount of capital repre sented by the business for the first flvs months of the present national admin istration of I163.424.0O0, showing an in crease In favor of the same period this year as compared with lx''6 of SH).7Di, 0o0, or more than 126 per cent. Much Interest Is manltested by the state political leaders, who meet In Hurrlsburg frequently for conference, In th Democratic and Republican state conventions, which are to be held In Heaolug and Harrisburg respective ly. It Is expected that these conven tions will ia some measure lndict the line of battle for next year. A few weeks ago It was believed that Deacom and McCauley, for state treasurer and auditor general, respectively, would have no serious opposition In the Re publican Mats convention. Hut ths re cent declaration of th business Men's League in Philadelphia In favor of Mc Cauley, and Inferer.tlally against Hea com, mukes It almost certain that there will be a lurse element ot the Re publican paity against Heacom's nom ination, mute Chairman I-Jlkln aud other paity leaders, however, bellevg that the convention will nominate both Iteac-nn nnd McCauley without serious friction, in the democratic convention the fli:M wtl be over the silver plank In the platform Bnd the question nf ousting William F. Hsriity from his seat In the nutluua.1 committee as a representative of the Pennsylvania De mocracy. The story thnt ex -Governor Pattlsnn would again lead the Demo cratic hosts ns their candidate for gov ernor has been spoiled lty the ex-governor himself announcing that he had never h'-a-rd of such a proposition. IetlNloii Itegfirdlug Ifrewers License Deputy Attorney General IClkln has siven an Important opinion on the new law relating to the granting of licenses to brewt i-h by the stale treasurer for ll.VfKl. He says no license can ho Is sued by the state treasurer for less than Il.tH'O, hut where the production of a brewery during the year preceding would require a lurger amount to be paid If application were made to the court the state treneurer Is required to collcYt ths same amount from appli cants. During the Inst few days several Alaskan gold mining companies which have been chartered by other states have registered at the state depart ment as foreipn corporations for the purpose of doing business In rennsyl nla. Htate Treasurer Haywood began pay ments under the general appropria tion bill last week. Most of those who hnve been anxiously waiting for a dis tribution of tho state's cash have been taken care of, and the regular appro priations to schools and state Insti tutions will now be paid out. The state treasurer has been moving with extreme caution, so as not to be the subject of criticism by reason of un due hasto. Htatlstlcs received at the department of putHIc instruction show that the In crease of the annual appropriation for the past ten years from 11,000.000, the minimum fixed by the constitution, to IR.eoo.OOO has done very little to In crease the salaries of teachers or to Increase the terms of the schools, but It has been taken advantage of to re duce local taxation for school pur poses, until now there are S37 of the 2.471 districts which pay less school tax than they receive out of the state appropriation. Delnware, Allegheny, Forest and McKoan are the only coun ties In which there are no districts showing such a record. State Treas urer Haywood has begun the distribu tion of the last half of the school ap propriation made by the legislature of 1Ks5, snd he expects to pay out the en tire r..f)00.000 due the school districts by next February. The next distribu tion to the schools will be made un der the new law, which changes the basis of distribution so as to give the country districts a much larger share of the appropriation than formerly. W. A. Keale, of Pittsburg, has been appointed ft clerk In the department of Internal affairs to succeed the late Mr. Johnston, of Hellefonte.who had charge of the street railway reports for many years. Mine Chief Not Tot Nnnted. Governor Hasting has not yet made announcement of his selection for chief of the new bureau of mines and min ing In the department of Internal af fairs. It Is understood, however, that Robert Brownlee, of Kalston, Lycom ing county, will be the man. There are many applicants for the position of as sistant superintendent of this bureau, who will be appointed by the secretary of Internal affairs. This was the only department created by ihe Inst legis lature, arid it Is expected in some measure to bring order out of chaos In the regulation of the mine Inspectors. Ills old friends In Hellefonte have not been forgotten by the governor. His latest favor has been bestowed upon Mis. Martha D. Keller, a widow, who will suoceed Miss Mary J. O'Reily, a deputy factory Inspector In Philadel phia, who will retire Pept. 1 to become a bride. Miss O'Reily has been a very efllclent Inspector, and her reports to the department have always been re garded as reliable and Intelligent. Insurance Commissioner Lambert has given expression to some very decided views respecting the attitude of some of the insurance commissioners of the fnr western states toward the big In surance companies of the country. Col onel Iambert was asked what he thought of the proposition of these western commissioners to examine the eastern Insurance companies. He said that the suggestion comes from some of the Populist states where they have diseased views of every sort of cor poration and of the employment of cap ital In any legitimate enterprise. The examinations, he added, would be a mere farce in most instances, since they could not have any thoroughness, and the result would add nothing to the character of a company, no matter how good Its standing. He says there is no need of examination of eastern companies by other than their own de partment. James Campbell, the state factory In spector, says the new law to regulate the manufacture of flour and meal food products, better known as the bake shop law, which went Into effect July 1, Is being satisfactorily enforced. The equestrian monument of the lato Major Geseral John F. Hartranft will be erected on the west front of the new capitol, facing the river. The late leg islature made an appropriation for the unveiling ceremonies at this monu ment, w)4chwlll be the occasion of a great military demonstration In Har risburg. It Is understood that the mon ument will be placed In position next year. There Is considerable interest amonjj stale officials the decision of the United Btates circuit court at Pittsburg on the constitutionality of the alien tax law. The probabilities are that there will be many other contests In the courts before the status of some of the legis lation of the Iwtt legislature Is fully de termined. STACxroLB. Meeting or Army of the Potomac Troy, N. Y., An?. The twenty eighth annual meeting of the Army of the Potomac will be held In this city on Friday and Saturday and is to be an event of more than usual Importance because of the presence of President McKlnley, Vice President Houart. Gov ernor Frank 8. Black and Lieutenant Governor Timothy Woodruff. The pa rade will be a grand demonstration. The list of organisations which will participate Is remarkably large, and the showing of the troops will be excellent. It Is probable that there will be more than 3,000 men In line. Striking Stonecutters i New London. New London, Conn., Aug. Is. The 60 stonecutters at Henry Gardiner's quar ries at Millstone, who are out on a strike because of a dispute over com pensation f.,r particular work, have not yet returned to work, though it la be lieved the matter will soon be adjusted through a committee, who will confer with the committee from the Manu facturers' association.

Farmer. H is said thnt hog cholera prevails to a greater extent in Indiana than ever before and that most of the awino producing States have plonty of it. Farmers should romomljer olonn beds, neatness, not filth. The following is taken from an article of T. B. Terry in the Tracti- -cal Farmer. IIkaltiikul Homks. I have boon growing some plants in small flower pots. One night I put them on an east porch to shield them from an expected storm. It was 8 o'clock tho noxt morning before I got around to carry them out in tho full sun shine again. I was interested to see how nearly every plant had turned over to the East, trying to get every ray of sunlight it could. Tho porch was not a dark one, nnd tho plants were only thorn somo throe hours after tho sun appeared, but nature taught them to reach out for its beneficial influence. Cannot many of ns learn n lesson from this y Do we not make a mistake whon we shut out tho full light of day from our homes, and when wo are so careful to exclude tho sunlight ? Would ordin ary plants grow and thrive in rooms that human beings often stay in ? I believe that no person, child or grown win long onjoy a full degree of health without a good deal of ex posuro to tho sun nnd tho full light of day. Let the sun shine into your rooms, bedrooms nnd nil, morning and night nt lenst, and let in the full daylight tho rest of the time. Na ture intended that we should nl wnys bo well and healthy. We violate her plain laws and are sick nnd ail ing, and thon we swallow bottles of medicine and boxes of pills. Pure air, pure water, sunshine, plonty of sloop and abundant exerciso, and proper food are tho best medicines, for thoy prevont disease nearly nl ways. We never keep a bottle of modicino nor a box of pills in our home, and sickness is practically un known, and always has boon. A chance to have the above good things is one of the blessed privileges we farmers hnve. Koep in perfect health and disease can hardly got hold of you. This is no idle tale Many friends have asked ino how I could go through all I do at Institute work and never got sick. Some time I will tell you. But now is it ns light as day where your wife and daughters work, and does the sun shine into your bedrooms for a time every day it isn't obscured by clouds ? Attention has boon callod in tho I'kbss to an act passed June 18, 1897 to prevent tho sproad of con tagious diseases known as yellows, block knot, peach rosette and ponr blight, making it unla wful for any person to keep trees- so infected, providing three commissioners shall bo appointed with pny in any town ship where such contagious diseases exist, defining their dutios and pre- scribing tho manner of dealing with the same, nnd making it a misde- monnor if owners neglect after pro per notice to destroy diseased trees or fruit or sell the same. Those owning fruit troos or selling fruit should examine this act carefully. An act was passed at tho same time providing for the regulation of the manufacture and sale of distilled and fermented -vinegars, proscribing their standard, and to prevent the adulteration of tho same. The dairy and food commissioner is chorged with tho enforcement of its provis ions, the fine is not less than fifty dollars or imprisonment for viola tions, and in addition the cost nnd expense of the analysis. Another act is one relating to the manufac ture and sale of choeso prescribing grades, and .punishment for viola tions. All tho above acts may be soon by those interested at this office, and it would be well to examine their provisions, and not be en ugh t and mado liable to fine or imprisonment. Thoy may soom to somo unneces sary and too stringent, but there is no nse to defy them and be caught in the toils. Whining and com plaint may not avail to relieve of tho penalties attached, and so long as they remain on the statute books they should bo respectexl. First " I didn't know you rode a wheel." Second.
