School meeting Inst Tuesday after
noon hroviphtout a Urge at tendance
ns two in-n wanted the office of
trusteo. The proposition to raise
r00 for school purposes was toted
down, and the vote for 1200 carried.
They are talking of having ten
mouths school next year and we
will ud thnt 500 dollars.
The lawyers defending George
Jngger have filed a writ of error and
as t lie Supreme Court Is very much
behind with its business, it Is doubt
ful if bis ense will be reached before

A little son of Joseph Owen had a
bono pushed into his enr by a young

Jason K. Fuller moved from the
Iifsey farm, near Walpnck Centre,
to Millbrook, Warren county, last
week. Ed. Rniser and Bamuol Gar.
rison will occupy the Losey prem
ises on or before April 1st.
I walked over the new McAdam
road on Friday last and found it in
excellent condition. The Trost and
freezing of the winter has not af
fected it to any extent. Work to
finish it will nodonbt be oommonced
as soon as the weather will permit
and its completion is anxiously
looked for.
Our town committee met on Sat
urday to settle snow bills and ap
point road masters and also to ap
portion the road money. The snow
bills will appregite a little ovor one
hundred dollars. Every road master
wanted more money on bis district
of road, but as only $1500 hundred
was raised many received the same
amount given them last year, and,
we managed to get over the roads,
but it was - bard sledding In some
cases.
The railroads are offering special
rates to the St. Lonls exposition
The rates of the Erie and Pennsyl
vania railroads are nearly the same,
the Erie route being lowest. The
Pennsylvania gives a 60-day exours-
ton for 132.35 from New York via
Pittsburg, or via Washington for
128.35. The Erie gives the same
ticket for $28.35 from New York
direct route, returning via Chicago.
The fare is reasonable considering
the distance of 1,048 miles, and the
time given the ticket
Saturday and Sunday were the
first real Spring days we have bad
I guess all are glad to have different
weather from what we have had for
the past three months or more.
First blue birds were seen here on
the 8th, and robins on the 9th.
Now that the Matamoras railroad
bridge is gone, I have given np all
hopes of a railroad down this valley
and have made np my mind that I
will have to continue hoofing it as
usual. Will H. L please urge some
of the railroads centering at Milford
to push a line ns far as Layton any
how? A trolley will do ilonry.
Bezekiah Smith, merchant, at
Bevans, has decided to remove to

Little Folks In Japan.
Nowhere gre chllilien more corrUI
ercd than In .Tnpm. Tlielr imrents
are devoted to them, and Rre enn
sUntly with them, carrying them
about, waMiing nnd Joining In tlielr
frames, and apparently never so hnp
py (9 when with them. Other pert
plea I'hllilren also come In for a larss
share of attention, nnd fntliers seem
to tmve as mmh pride In tlielr off
spring as mothers.
It . is amusing on a fine morning,
about o'clock, to see half a dozen
men sitting on a low wall, each with
one or two Ibtle children whom lis
plays with and pets. The little folks
are led to show off their cleverness,
and, Judging from Rppearnnces, they
form the main interest of tiictr fond
elders.
One would imagine thnt with so
much petting children must be spoiled
snd disagreeable. The contrary Is
the ense, the children of Japan being
the most well-behaved snd charming
little people in the world.
World's Largest Brick Field.
Peterborough, England, makes
enough bricks in the course of a year
to put a girdle four times around the
earth. It Is estimated thnt the busy
brii kmaklng yards, which have grown
np In great number around the anci
ent city In the Inst twenty years, turn
out fifto.ooo.ooo bricks annually. As
the length of a brick is about eight
inches, then, If reterborough's annu
al output were laid out In a single
line, it would stretch over 100,000
miles.
The brick industry has revolution
ised the trade of Peterborough. Such
Is the wealth of clay and the profit to
be drawn from it that one part of the
brlckmaklng district has been fitly
named "Klondike." It lies In beds
of enormous area and depth, and some
of the experts say they could go on
taking out the easily accessible clay
for the next century without taking
thought as to where the next supply
of the material is to come from.

Bird Duets.
Mr. Edgar R. Waite of the Austra
lian Museum at Sydney, In support of
Mr. Henschel's account of the duet
which his bullfinch and canary used to
sing, cites a somewhat Bluiilnr feat
performed by two magpies. The first
one had been taught a simple little
song, which he piped very often and
accurately, even maintaining it exact
ly In K, the key In which It was first
given to him. A second magpie was
purchased, snd the bird soon learned
the tune from the other one. When
the first bird commenced Its song the
newcomer immediately came to atten
tion, and with half-open beak awaited
a certain note, at which point the
other bird stopped, and the song was
finished by the second singer. No
matter how far separated, If the birds
were within hearing distance of on
another, the duet was always sung in
tills way.
Gen. Logan's Retort.
A man who knew John A. Logan Id
southern Illinois before the Civil War
recently said thnt on a certain occa
sion young Logan found it necessary
to doubt the veracity of a man con
siderably older than himself and told
him so without any circumlocution.
"Don't you call me a liar, sir," suld
the man excitedly. "I have a reputa
tion to maintain, and I mean to main
tain If. If I have to do It at the point
of a pistol." ,
"Oh," said Logan calmly, "that
won't be necessary. You maintain
your reputation all right every t'me
you tell a lie." Kansas City Journal.

Disturbances of strickers are not
nearly as grave as individual dis
orders of the system. Overwork,
loss of sleep, nervous tension will be
followed by otter collapse, unless a
reliabliable remedy is immediately
employed. There's nothing so ef
floient to enre disorders of the liver
and kidneys as Electric Bitters. It's
a wonderful tonio, and effective
nervine and the. greatest of all round
medicine for ruu down systems. It
