ADVERTISING IS LIFE. Towns Need It at Well as Merchants Newspaper Best Means Towns no lesa than business firms Deeds to advertise. A town may not fail quite so quickly as a private enterprise from lack of advertising, but the death is just as certain in the long run. A town needs to have outsiders know its advantages, its actual conditions as to industries, opportunities for business, cost of living, etc. Many an excellent town suffers from the fact that its advantages are not widely known, just as many a worthy commodity suffers because it has not been ad vertised. The newspapers are undoubtedly one of the greatest menus of adver tising their towns. "By their news paper men shall know them" is the Bemi-biblical phrase that applied to towns. The western real esta e town can teach the average eastern city many things on the subject of advertise ment. There is a case of advertise or die completely, and they prefer to advertise. The result is that peo ple are interested and money is in vested in the towns. It is the same old fact that never changes namely, that advertising is necessary and that the more a th'ng is advertised up to a certain veryhigh limit the greater the net returns will be. Towns are no ex ception to the general rule. Ridge way (Pa.) Advocate. RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT. Adopted by Flat Creek todge No. S8.1 A. F. A. M., In Memory of ilrother William Brown. Brother William Brown was bora April 24th 1841, and died Tuesxl iy May 18ih, Kind H w hiiried Wednesday the l!Kh, at Pleasant Grove Church, with Uasouic honors. He leaves a widov and hve ctiu- Aran tf mnnrn thftir loss. Brother Brown was a true and loving husband and father, a noble citizen, a model rhrmtian and lnval hrot1 or Mason. He joined the Christian Church at Pleasant rimve in his hovhood and remained an active, Eealous member of this church through a long and useful life. Brother Brown had been a memlier of the Masonic Fraternity for more than fjrtv years and his life measured up to the highest standard of the erat and andyiug princi ples of Masonry " No worthy cause ever escaped nm consiuerauu" d.... y , and while he was poer in this world's goods we believe hia treasures . were laid up 'whnrfl mnth and rust can not corrupt; where thieves do not break through nor steal.' Wh;i brother. Brown's body is committed to the confines of the tomb, and while his soul has been reclaimed by God who ga e it, till hi. rrrAttt otalwdrt life as a Christian and as a Mason, stands forth as a model for th 83 who are left behind; the great principles tor which his life stood, and the mighty influ ences for good which it wielded, can never die, and we hope to meet our departed brother where there'll be no sad partings, no more heart-breakinc farewells, in that house not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens. WlmrMs. it has uleased the Great Arch itect of the Universe to take our brother from among us, anil, Whereas, we feel deeply, the loss we have Buffered in the death of brother Brows, and. Whereas, we know we will meet him no more on ea-th and nevermore can have the pleasure of his genial, Christian presence with us in our work. Therefore be it resolved 1st. That we desire to express our gratitude to the King of Heaven for his goodness in giving to thus community so noble a life as that of brother Brown, 2nd That we take the worthy and ex emplary life of our lamented brother as a model for our own and rtrive with all in our power to live up to the high standard he has set for ns in his life and work. 3rd. That we tender our most sincere condolences to the sorrowing family of our departed brother in this hour of their great loss. 4th.

Mrs I H Fout-t, Mrs M C Fulton, Signed. Mrs T A Moffitt, Committee, Story of Hans, Wonder Horse. A few yeiirs ngo the people of Ger many became greatly interested In the performance of a trained horse named Hans. He had been educated by Tro- lessor von Osten of Berlin. Four years Professor von Osten trained Hans. No-."" body knew much about It, and the few who did know laughed at the old pro fessor. But all nt once people began to talk about the marvelous achievements of that horse Hans. The newspapers got hold of the story, wh'M was de clared to be absolutely Uue. Then some of the most learned gentlemen of Germany, men whose word could not be doubted, were npioluted a commit tee to visit Hans nnd see him perform. They found Hans could do the things claimed for lilin, though some of these were almost past belleft They found that If the photograph of a person In the audience were Bhown HANS SOLVING PROBLEMS. to the horse he could find at once the orlglual of the picture and point him out. Once a gentleman asked Professor von Osten If the horse could tell the time of day. "Open your watch and hold it before him nnd ask him what time It is," an swered the profwssor. The mail did so. Huns looked at the watch and tapped his hoof upon ttie ground eleven times. It was just 11 o'clock. Major Sehocnbeck of the Ger man army once wrote upon a piece of paper, "4 plus 5 minus 3," and hetd It before the eyes of Hans. Instantly the wonder hop" rapped out six with his foot. Try ns they would, the gentle men could not trip up Hans with any ordinary figuring. He seems to know perfectly all his numbers up to 100. He also spells out names and sen- fences from charts. Upon a frame In Haus' schoolroom are ranged pieces of cloth of different colors. Each piece has a number attached to it. Once a cavalry officer wearing a red cap asked the horse: Haus. what color is my cap?" Hans looked at the cap, then looked at his color samples and beat his hoof upon the ground three times. The red color upon the frame was numbered three. Perhaps the wonder horse's greatest performance, however, was the follow li.g: Oue day a mun told Hans to remember lxirtlcularly this sentence: "Forest and bridge are occu pied by the enemy. The gentleman went away, came back next day and bade Hans write the seuteuce he had usked to be spe cially remembered. And that wonder- ful horse went to his alphabet tablets' and with hU hoof spelled out the exac. . rds, "Forest and bridge are occu pied by the enemy. An Amusing Toy. To make a seesaw take two heated pins and sll,k them Into the center of a candle nt right angles to the wick, which should be left exposed at both ends. Then rest the pins on the edges of two wineglasses nnd trim the can dle to balance. Light the wicks, and beyond the Somes at each end. by means of a piece of wire, fasten two little figures with their joints hinged. Now, as toe candle begins to melt, a drop of grease will fall from one end THB BBB&AW. . (It Is advisable, by fthe way, to put something beneath to catch it in), and that end of the candle will rise a lit tle above the other; then a drop will fall from the oppeslte end, and a gentle oscillation will bi ,-In. which gradually Increases In speed until the little fig ures at the end will perform the most surprising antics at their game of seesaw.

Her soul went up in the lifted cleud From the sad old house by the tea And ever since then when the clock strikes two She walks unbidden from room to room; And the air is filled as she passes through With a subtle, sad perfume.
