City Marshal Wolff certainly de
serves credit for the abie and energetic
manner in which he has discharged his
onerous duties during the past week,
i Perhaps he was the most thoroughly
overworked man in town, being kept
busy from morning until far into the
night. To his efforts our people are in
debted for the prevention of serious
calamity in the shape of fire, for had
he not watched so close the boys would
undoubtedly have caused trouble by
the carelessness with which they began
handling fireworks during the first of
tiie holidays. He struck a tough job
when he undertook to keep the dei.se
masses of humanity “moving" and the
sidewalks passable, but he succeeded
admirably, and bis kindness, yet firm
ness. to tiie merrymakers is to be com
mended. Marshal Wolff lias clearly
demonstrated that he is a first-class
officer—considerate, watchful aud gen
tlemanly.
Henry Williams got himself in quite
a pickle the early part of the week.
He was in the harber shop, and when
he lett he inadveitently donned Price
McDaniel’s coat. His mental tribula
tion when he discovered his mistake
can t»e better understood when it is ex
plained that the coat he had thus care
lessly left contained a marriage license
authorizing the solemnization of the
nuptial ceremony between himself and
Miss Lulu Speer of L’Auguille town
ship. After an energetic chase Price
was finally rounded up and an ex
change of garments effected, and we
learn that tlie wedding took place with
out fm ther contretemps at the home of
the bride’s farther. J. L. Speer. The
Times wishes the contracting parties
tiie utmost happiness, but cautions Mr.
Williams against the careless handling
of his raiment during Christmas times
—especially when the custodian of a
marriage license.
Christmas eve. about midnight, the j
night marshal had occasion to visit the
western part of town.and on his return,
met a lady in the middle of the road
m a terrible state of trepidation. * Oh.
Mr. Jennings.” the lady exclaimed,
■'there's a robber in the house, playing
the piano, and husband will be killed ”
The watchman on entering the house
found the aforesaid husband, in light
attii>‘. pulling at the trigger of an old
needle gun. pointed at the wall of the
room from whence proceeded the sound
of piano mu.dc. ■•He’s in there.” ex
claimed the valiant hubby, trembling
like the aspen, either from fright or
cold, “and if this gun had gone off.
he’d ia-en perforated like a sieve ”
Joining the watchman, a search was
made, aim the terrible robber was found
to be a Thomas Cat. walking to and fro
on the piano keyboard, inspecting what
Santa Clans had left for the little ones.
The frightened couple begged secrecy
mi the uart of the guardian of the peace,
but it was too good to keep, heuce tins

Squire D. Duncan, of Widener, was
in town yesterday, and informed ns
that he had performed the marria-e j
ceremony for Thomas Clark and Miss
Maggie Houston at the home of the,
bride’s father, lfillie Houston, at Wid. !
ener on Christmas day. The wedding
party repaired to the home
of the groom's mother, where a
marriage feast was given in bonorof
the event. Later in the day 'Squire,

When the girl comes to be a woman—
look out. It she starts out in vigorous,
womanly health then it is prettv safe to
! say she will be a healthy, attractive,
, beautiful woman.
The beginning of womanhood is the
real crisis in a woman’s life. Nearly
always something i3 wrong then in the
* distinctly feminine organs. Maybe it
isn’t very serious—uo matter—the time
to stop disease is when it starts.
McELREE’S

Taken at the first indication of weak
| ness, it never fails. It regulates the
| monthly periods with perfect precision.
! Its action is direct upon the feminine
; organs that above all others, ought to

Start the girl ri*'ht. Don’t expose her

so common to women.
