She still thinks to have your picture taken Is "horrid--detestably horrid." And that no ono has or ever shall have her picture. Bow different this from almost all we know who begin having their photos taken when babies, and keep it np until the grandchildren ask the old folks for their pictures.

There is to us something very beautiful and good in all this--it is so human--so like ourselves to have our pictures taken. It has, we think, helped along our civilization--made many statesmen great by being better and wider known by likeness, although, lax in action, and our people happy. A home in these says without its family pictures would seem no home at all to most of us-and even our delightful friends, the newspapers, would be solemn and sorry things without pictures in them. Are you not then sorry for the lady who has never had her picture taken? Newportville, July 28. LANGHORNE.

Minster, the ntfable and energetic postmaster, with his able and polite assistants. And whiln many of our public officials have in this way become more familiar with the people, it has also become quite the custom to have the pictures of prominent ladies reproduced In the newspapers ot our days and for my part I love to see them; for all our American ladies are worth look ing ut and most of them very beautiful to behold. But when this subject became a matter of conversation the other evening the lady with whom we were talking said, "that she considered the whole subject'horrid'-- most 'detestably horrid'--to have one's picture takon." We could not agree with her and wan somewhat startled when she continued, and said. Why sir, I have never had my picture taken." Perhaps some of our readers, especially the ladies, will wonder what manner of a woman thin Is who asserts with absolute truthfulnexs that she has never in all her lifetime liad her picture taken. "She must be vtry homely," we hear someone say.

Is that it? Too poor and friondless to have her pictute takon." To all these we make answer, "That the is a high-bred society lady, very comfortably supplied ivlth this world's goods, and, quite good looking." Perhaps all our readers would not agree with us In this last remaik, in fact, some, shake their beads as if the whole matter Is most incredible, and one, with rather a manlsh chin, looking us squarely in the face with a gleam pf defiance In ber grey eye slowly remarks, "Why has she never hod her picture taken?" We cannot say as she has never told us. But this one can tay that her life has been always full of enjoyment, like most women of her class and social standing. She is a graceful dancer, and fairly good musician, a daring horsewoman, a linguist and an Interesting conversationalist, while her manners are refined and unobtrusive, in fact, she it a very interesting lady, at least, the gentlemen have thought so for she has been several times engaged to be married. She is noted for her good taste and elegance in drees and always appears au fait for the occasion. But she has neve, had her picture takon.

"It she devoid of sense and reason?" inquires a pert little mien, frc a corner, where she site curled up like cat on a sofa, Intently listening to the description. Not at all, for she is emarkably energetic and in all matters of business, and ia fond of the society of gentlemen, providing they are genttemon. "Bat she any have made a vow never to have it taken," remarks a solemn religious looking woman. Not so, she simply thinks that "the custom is horrid."

It will be a matter of but a short time now, when Lnnghorne will have a very good system of telephone services furnished by the Telegraph A Telephone and: the Standard Telephone Company. George Fetterolf, editor of tbe Langhorne Standard, has been suffering severely from "gall stones" during the past few weeks. Mr Fetterolf is one of Lang- home's leading politicians and has a host of friends. The T. J.

Mr. Tomlinson, a farm hand on the Long farm near Rorksville, hud a close call on Friday of last week, during a thunder storm. Mr. Tomlinson during the storm was working in the barn, and had just closed the doors to prevent a draught when he thought of a bucket, under a tree, that wae liable to be washed away.

He went for it and while stooping the tree was stuck, ripping off the bark and scattering it twenty feet from the trunk. Mr. Tomlinson's eyes were injured but otherwise escaped harm. While out driving on the pike between Langhorne and Newtown, a team belonging to C. J.

Matthews, of Langborne Manor, became frightened at a trolley and ran away, breaking the tongue of the wagon. The horses freed themselves from the wagon a short distance this side of the DOVLESTOWM. Doylestown's ball team is in disgrace. Hutboro came here Saturday and boat the home nine with a score of 24 to 3. Tbe bids for the new Methodist Church have been received by the-trustees.

During severe thunder storm last Thursday Mrs. Louise Binder, who resides oj Deisatur street, was stunned by a bolt that struck the ground near her home. She lay unconscious for three hours bat entirely recovered from the shock the next day. The "oldest inhabitant" cannot remember the time when there were so many Republican candidates for office as are in the field this year.

This is interpreted to mean that a nomination will be equivalent to an election. There are nearly thirty announcement cards in the local papers to say candidates talked about Of course, a few will drop out before the convention votes but tbe long list of names and interest felt in the Legislative ticket means a large and lively convention this year. Aside from the candidates for County Commissioner the Democrats have but one man in the field, W. Harry Smith, High Oonstbale of the borough who proposes to have another try for Sheriff. Smith made a good run when a candidate before, but this being a Gubernatorial year it Is predicted that he will find things vastly different David H.

Cornell, day laborer, created quite a sensation here on Thursday last when in a fit of insanity, he fired several shots at Mrs. Linford Baike, in whose bouse he has a room, and then attempted to end his own life by discharging tbe weapon at bis own breast. Beyond Inflicting a painful but not serious wound upon himself, Cornell aid little harm. The ball ranged round his body and was extracted from beneath tbe skin at the back by the physicians. Mrs.

Raike had called at his room to inquire after Cornell's health when the assault was made. Cornell's case Is a pathetic one. Having money and property at one time and happy In his surroundings, he was suddenly overtaken with dire misfortune. He lott his property and his brother eloped with his wife. This preyed upon his mind to the extent that he has been partially demented for years and at tha age of GO or 60 wae obliged to work as a day hand.

In a momentary delusion he imagined Mrs, RaUe to be his faithless wife and her brother who had wronged him, so when the woman appeared he sought to take her life. He flrud three shots in all from a 32 calibre revolver but fortunately missed his intended victim each time. Cornell was taken to the county jail and is recovering from his wound. It Is not likely that criminal prosecution will be instituted as he was not responsible for his act. Cornell comes of highly respected family.

Far otherwise, her form appears faultless, and her features fine, dec'dedly handsome and aristocratic. "But shn must have tic douloureux or some other sort of an affection, perhaps she squints or is crosseyed from strabismus," remarks a maiden lady with a show of wrinkles In her neck, and lips thin as wafers. "Her face la bright, full of intelligence and animation, her eyes are large and womanly and perfect, she has never worn glasses, and says, she despises them." "But what in the world Is the matter with her! Is she unable to sit still long enough to have her picture taken?" remarks a tall lean woman, who might be taken for Lot's wife after she had been salted down in the wilderness.

The morning service opened with a testimonial meeting under the auspices of Mr. MoKinney, In which quite a number participated. Fol-1 lowing this meeting was the morning sermon by the Rev. Patrick Kain, one of 'the finent orators and preachers of the day, hii text being taken from Jonah, I Chapter, 2, verse "Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it for their wickedness is come up before me." Also 3 chapter, 2 verse, "Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid tbee." The time was an after consideration, people spell bound and not until time for departure was almost at hand for him, did the congregation realize that they had listened for almost two hours to one that they loved and admired for his spiritual goodness.

When shaking hands with new and old acquaintances, Rev. Kane began to sing in an effective tone "We Shall Never Say Goodbye in Heaven," which wot taken up and tang through the grove.

While loading a wagoifwith hay the other day, TJ. Q. Wharton got too much hay on one side, and consequently the wagon went over, but fortunately no oae was hurt.

Mr. Doan, whose business it is to take care of such structures, claims that It is 10 dark at this depth that one can see the stars in the daytime. It is needless to say that there are few star gazing parties in that Jocaltty.

On Sunday evening the serenity of the evening was disturbed by tbe returning home of some of the colored folks from the meeting at the grove.

These particular people seemed to be in a pugnacious mood, and from the threats gleaned from their conversation aa they passed down the street it was a question whether there would not be an intrusion of an undertaker into some of their homes before the coming of tbe dawn.

The Democratic platform is ae barren of reference" to the miscreant Democrats who sold themselves to the Quay machine as the Republican platform is "barren of reference" to the ripper bills and rnncme steals put through a Republican Legtslat- ture by the Quay Gang. It history that the Quay machine gaineH control of tbe last Legislture only through the nid of political crooks elected as Democrats and pledged to oppose Quay and all his works Had there been one Democratic traitor less, tbe Gang could not have organized tbe Legislature, and the State would have bean spared tbe disgrace of the carnival of tbievos that reigned In Harrisburg throughout the session.

But not a word is said in the platform In condemnation of Democratic crooks. The omission was not accldntal The platform was carefully considered and re vised by the leaders, and nothing was put into it or taken from It without tbe sanction of the Democratic boss. By their studied silence on a matter of vital Interest to tbe honest rank and file of the often defeated bnt never conquered Democracy, the leaders at Erie forfeited tbe right to ask any honest independent voter to put faith in their promises of good government. No more confidence can be given to them than to the Republican bosses who managed tbe Harrisburg performance. Tbe very men so loudly denounced by Democratic leaders when the Infamous Legislature adjourned were in ovldonce at Erie, and their services were commanded by the bosses and used in carrying the programme.

The price of their aid wot sllenco on the subject of the perfidy.

We are in the habit of seeking the shade of a tree as a means of getting cool, bat that is not the only power it has of reducing the femperaare. On the same principle that a lump of ice will coot a glass of water a tree with cool the air around it, because Its own temperature is uniformly about-45 degree that is to say, the temperature of the as a body. This la little understood, perhaps, bat it to a recognized fact, and It adds much force to the argument in favor of planting trees, A clomp of trees is capable of making a material reduction in tempera- tore. The woods, therefore, are cool, not only because they are shady, but because the trees are constantly fighting the heat.

President Arthur Holder of the Iowa State Federation of Labor said at the Federation's annual meeting, held in Cedar Rapids a short time ago: "Many organizations with elaborate titles talk about the condition of women and children wage-earners.

Let the trade unions of Iowa do something for them. Open wide the avenues of discussion, illustrate the advantge of collective bargaining, instead of UeBtruetive wage-cutting by individual competition. If we would be consistent by saying, 'Equal rights for regardless of sex, and herald to the world that tbe trade unionists of Iowa are willing to take advanced ground, and declare with no uncertain sound that we are willing to give our sisters the ballot. If we are, then let us conscientiously help them to get it. "Our platform of principles emphatically declares that we draw no line as against creed, color, nationality, or sex.

Woman has taken her place side by side with man in industrial and professional pursuits. This is all a part of our economic development, and no human power is strong enough to regulate ber; no one Is audacious enough even to propose it. We know where our duty lies, and that Is to give women all the protection possible. If we are in earnest, and prevail upon them to see the necessity of organization, can we say, Stop at the threshold of tbe trade union? No; we must show our sincerity by adding, you are responsible citizens, you are our Industrial associates; you are entited to all tbe privileges and duties, as well as tbe responsibilities, of your new station In life; the open door of the franchise shall be given yon. When women are given these wider opportunities they will improve them, and no problem of child labor will stare us in the face." FALLSINOTON.

The Ingenuity of the oleomargrine manufacturer It something that passes all expectation. Since the new law against tbo making and sale of imitation butter went into effect the sleuths of the Internal Revenue Bureau have been more alert thin ever to detect attempts to evade the mandate of the Government No arrests have yet been made, but the officials of the Bureau are well enough satisfied that they are going to have their bands full to keep np with their friends, the "oleo makers." One manufacnrer has boon found who proposes to send out with packages of oleomargarine of from 10 to 100 pounds sufficient quantity of coloring matter so that the restaurant keeper or boarding house landlady can color hit or her butter to tuit taste. The Armour Company have notified the Commissioner of Internal Revenue thaMt was their purpose to follow this plan, and they claim that the new law doet not forbid the practice. Another manufacturer hat written the lay that he should like to use palm oil, which is cheaper than tonseed oil, and gives a beautf oleo butter, and he asks the I If It would be lawful for him to do so. The Oommlssoner had to tay frankly that the law, at he views it, does not prevent the ate of an ingredient which is naturally of the color of butter, and which it not put in solely for tbe purpose of imparting the butter oolorr The general opinion of the Oleomargine la at far as the Internal Revenue officials have gone with It, la that it Is not to entirely effective as it might be.

Even in the unhappy ages when people knew little of tho bath and its rejuvenating properties, noted beauties found out tbe secret of preserving tbeir loveKnes by ablotionary aids. Isabella cf Bavaria -beard that chick weed was good for the skin, and bad enormous decoctious brewed thereof, and bathed in them daily. Diana of 1'oitlers was another of the cleanly coquttos, and plunged into a tub of raln- watur every morning. Tho eighteenth- century beauties likewise believed In bathing, but they put all sorts of odd infusions into the water to Improve the skin --such at water In which veal had been boiled, water distilled from the honey extracted flW roses, a preparation of almonds, mewyuioe, the milky juices of green linseed, distilled with Mexican balm dissolved by tbe yolk of an egg.

These remarkable deccctlout were freely used by tho ladles who sunned themselves at the French Court before tho Revolution. Queen Marie Antoinette, made liberal use of a "tub," putting into the water wild thyme, laurel marjory and a little sea salt. leaves, Marie Ozetwertyneaka, a Russian beauty, used to bathe in Malaga wine.
