William Mutchler departed for Stoutsburg Saturday where he expected to spend the 4th and some of his money. For the life of us, we can’t see why Stoutsburg is a better place to spend the 4th than Wheatfield.

Hello, Ed, how much money jingled out of your pockets for the girls? Most of the people of this vicinity spent the Fourth of July in Fair Oaks. Hulda and Minnie were home on a visit, but Hulda had to return before the Fourth. John Stibbe, with his two children attended tre Fourth of July exercises at Fair Oaks. It’s only too good that Oscar Stibbe got company that gives him chances for excuses. Fair Oaks sand hills must be pleasant, or there certainly wouldn’t have been such a large crowd there. “The evening is always the best,” is what some boys and girls say. It might be in one way; it’s best for flirtations. Frederick E. Haas had to go to Fair Oaks to see if he could see his son-in-laws there, which we think be certainly did. Say, but it was a big luck that Mrs. Rosenbaum felt so much better than Mr. Rosenbaum could take the children to the celebration. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Makus thought they would go to tbe Fourth of July cel* ebration because it was their son's birthday, and they thought he ought to celebrate it.

No Pity Shown. "For year* fate wa* after me continuously" write* F. A. Gulledge, Verbena, Ala. “I had a terrible ease of Piles causing 24 tumor*. When all else failed Bocklen'* Arnica Salve cured me. Equally good for Burns and all ache* and pain*. Only 26c. at A. F. Long'*.

“NERVOUS AND IRRITABLE.

Pe-ru-na is Invaluable to Ailing Women,

Miss Celia Harrington, 803 Second av#* nue, Detroit, Mich., writes: “Weakness has filled many months of my life with suffering. Through carelessness I caught a severeccld two years ago which settled in catarrh and seriously interfered with the regular function* of the body, and made me nervous and irritable. I began taking Peruna and found in it a faithful helper, as it en riehed my blood and invigorated the whole system. I have no pains now and am always well.” Female weakness is generally dependent upon catarrh of the pelvic organs. Peruna cures catarrh wherever located.

Gifford

Gifford has woke up at last. All report having a fine time the Fourth. We see the Pine Grove people visit a good deal. Miss looks much pleased since George has returned. Our pickle factory is almost done, and the pickles are looking fine. Say, Wess; why is it that you have quit going south of Sundays? George Kimble has returned from the west to remain at home until spring. Well, Bert, why did you look down the mouth so the Fourth? Has she gone back on you already? The Laura and Gifford base ball teams played a game Sunday at the latter place which resulted in a score of 18 to 25, in favor of Gifford. We noticed that John Hill and Bill Nuss returned July sth, one at noon and the other at night. They have been cutting rye this week, and were glad to see the rain come.

POTENCY OF LOOSE CHANGE

It la the Nickels aat Dime* That Build Up Great Fortune*. When the crusader* against policy made the statement that the gross dally receipts from the game in Chicago aggregated 130,000 the community was astounded. Thirty thousand dollars In pennies. and dimes gambled away each day! Impossible! But such is the truth. Most persons never, stop to think of the power of loose change. They .hold It so lightly that they fling it about recklessly, and that Is the chief reason for its power. The pennies and dimes give chief support to the churches of the nation. The magnificent contribution of the millionaire dwindles to the proportions of the widow’s mite when compared with the great total. It is the loose change carried up to the altar rail which meets the mortgage, pays the pastor’s salary and sends missionaries to the four corners of the earth. Go through the books of the big charitable Institutions, and you will find how dependent they are on the small givers—on loose change. From Sunday school classes, sewing circles, church Collections, church entertainments and the penny boxes which stand in drug and grocery stores comes the greater portion of the revenue. The millionaire philanthropists of the nation would be appalled at their responsibility If the support of the small givers was withdrawn from the charitable institutions. Close to $14,000,000 a year in nickels flows into the coffers of the local traction companies and creates a business to attract a Morgan or a Vanderbilt In the end it is the housewife’s nickel which pays for the harvests of the millions of acres of golden grain. It is the loose change which keeps the wheels going and the world moving. But how loosely do we throw it about!—Chicago Journal.

Benefits of Walking.

The best, simplest, universal exercise Is that of walking. I can walk with enjoyment for hours along a flat country and even in the parks and embankments of London, but I attribute my health and activity in my seventy-third year to the steady pursuit of climbing hills, mountains, glaciers and moors—a practice which I began in my seventeenth year in the highlands of Scotland. /since then_l have consta_ntly

worked all round the Alps, Lem Nice to the Tyrol, doing nearly all the well ktaown peaks, passes and glaciers—the Grivola In a verglas being the worst. I have walked in the Pyrenees, the Apennines and the mountains of Sicily and Greece; the Welsh, Scotch and lake hills, the moors of Yorkshire, Lancashire, Hampshire, Cornwall, Surrey and Sussex. I played cricket in my school and college elevens as bowler, nud I have enjoyed tennis, rackets, lawn tennis (which I still play), football, rowing and skating. But none equals walking. I have ridden all my life, but I find hunting, shooting, fishing and golf sheer waste of time. An Alpine glacier —even a British crag side—is worth all the stupid forms of “sport” put together.—Frederic Harrison in London News.

Automobile Superstition.

The automobile Is such a modern institution that it 1b hardly possible to Imagine superstition being already connected with it Among modern car drivers in England, however, there Is a curious survival of an old bit of folklore. In many cars Is suspended a perforated stone, usually a sea rolled flint with a natural bore. This stone is supposed to act as a protective amulet. To be efficacious in warding off evil the hole must be naturally or, as some people maintain, supernaturally forced, not artificially bored. Belief in this stone’s power is widespread. It is supposed to confer safety on the fastest traveling motor car, and there is many a speedy driver who In his heart ascribes his Immunity from accident to the strange power of the perforated pebble.

House of Commons Debates.

Old members of the house of commons are usually of the opinion that the debates, compared with twenty or thirty years ago, are now more businesslike and less oratorical than they were. Some welcome the change and, rejoicing in the greater efficiency of the house as a governing assembly, praise the conversational style of speaking now so much in vogue as less stilted than the old. Others, regretting the loss of the picturesque, distressed that the house should be less attractive as a show, condemn the new manner as more slipshod. There is agreement that the average member takes less trouble with the form and phrasing of his speeches.—London Spectator. Bead The Democrat for news.
