Don’t forget to put Fleming-ton on your schedule this season. 575 were cleared at the recent L. A. I', entertainment. Now for a fair. What an infield ! what an infield ! ! And vet we may have a blizzard afore the season opens. The first game of the season will be played Saturday. April 29th, with the strong Murray Hill bunch. Miles will pitch again for Doyles town this year, but will be assisted in that department by Seigler. A little paint on the grandstand would not only add beauty to its ap pearance, but will preserve the wood as well. “ Cousin Cute ” Gilbert is getting in shape and says he feels as though he’s going to smash the ball to tid bits the coming season. That’s the way to feel, Cuz. A great many loads of ashes have been dumped around the outfield this Winter and many of the bad holes will he filled up before play is resumed. The steam roller will be a good device in packing down and leveling the dirt, gentlemen. A line is out to catch Wright for the outfield. Don’t you think, Mr. Manager, that Wright is declining in to a ‘‘has been?” There’s Butler, of our own little town, would perhaps do better than he. “Jack” is agrcs sive, heady and a good hitter. A trial would suffice to learn his worth. If Lambertville and Flemingtoii do battle against each other this year, “Xeke ’’ Lutes informed one of our boys that he expects to sit in the grandstand and witness the game, lie has been up against them on lour different occasions, each time getting his castor oil in bigger doses. He was on the slab for Hopewell then. Harper, who caught for Jenkintown last year, and who is known as tin* home run “gitter,” has signed under Manager Pollock to receive for the Doylestown club. Dollars to lead quarters he don’t “git ” over a baker’s dozen from Smiling Tom’s new and up-to-date Russo-Japanese Port Ar thurinsky ball that he is going to put out the coming season. Jones, the heavy hitting third base man of the American Bridge Co.’s team, Trenton, has signed a Smithite contract to do general utility work for the Y. NI. C. A.’s the coming Summer. Just to show you what kind of stuff this youngster is made of, he’s the lad that slapped Jakeman’s zigzagers for three singles when the iron-workers played here last season. Read these names over and see what you are going to have : Jakcman, the Smiler, pitcher; Remmy Kline, catcher; Hank Helverson, first base; Slugger Reynolds, second base; Kid Melcher, short stop; Archie Miller, third base ; Affa-Dinner Allen, either centre or right field and sub. pitcher, and one other outfielder as yet unsign ed. Whoop-eel wouldn’t that make “ Rube ” \\ addell go on a fishing ex cursion for thirty-nine days. “Archie” Miller, of Easton, has given Montreal the throw-down and his name is iudeliblv placed upon the dotted line of an L. A. C. contract foi the third base department, lie’s a dandy fielder and when he picks up the «ilti willow tree he thinks no more of stinging out a one, two or three bagger or clearing the eight-foot fence for a homer, than does Enos Weiss in demolishing a quart of saner kraut after he has already eaten a good square meal. Miller’s name gives the “ fans ” a joyous, merry palpitation of the heart. IN A PERSONAL WAY . Mrs. Marne Sloan and son, of Pater son, have been visitiug friends here.

Every man should he a critic of his own actions. You can’t always tell s milk train by its cowcatcher. If a man is a coward he always claims to he conservative. Many a girl’s ideal ih shattered when her tiuauce goes broke. Soldiers who lose their heads in battle have no use for pensions. Mud only sticks to mud so he care ful. Happiness often consists in think ing that what is isn’t,aud what isn’t is going to he. Even in the finest weather some follow will insist upon telling you lie has seen better days. So far this winter the man with the sleigh has put on more airs than the man who owns an automobile. Instead of doing things toduy the wise man did them yesterday. Borne men waste a lot of valuable time explaining their actions. A man who is satisfied with his job never reaches the top of tho ladder. Walking delegates usually ride st the expense of others. What has become of the leap-year “Society for the Prevention of Old Bachelors?” A man doesn’t enjoy being laughed at by acrowdunless ho gets paid for it. The thin woman who falls from the top of a stepiadder will come down plump. Married women who know how to manage husbands seldom give their I>lans away. A young man’s idea of an attractive girl is one who doesn't care for ice cream or oysters. A large portion of our standing army does a stunt on the street cais during the rush hours. It is easier for a married man to pack his trunk than it is for a bache lor—because be bas less to pack. If George Washington ever told a lie in his life it was probably when bis wife asked him for money Hut for the ice bills of summer and the coal bills of wiuter all of us would doubt feel more comfortable. Some married women not only have the last word, but all the rest of them. The public has a poor opinion of a man who lies in bed mornings until it is time for work and lets his wife shovel the snow and cleau the ice from the sidewalk. MARRIED FIFTY YEARS. Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Paxson Ctlebr.de Their Golden Wedding. In the old Puxson homestead, Sole btiry, Tuesdav, January 17th, William Wallace and Mary Britton Paxson cel ebrated their goldoii wedding. About seventy guests accepted invitations. The day was ideal and the old fai in house was made comfortable nud at tractive by tires on the open heartb. The oldest friends of the bride a id groom took dinner from the mahog any tables brought to the • I homo by Mr. Paxson’s mother when no enter ed it as a bride seventy live years ago. The china and silver were tiers also and the tablespoons belonged to her father. The decorations were gold and green. Tahiti decoration.- »*ore gold en with heavy satin ribbons gracefully extended from the four corners of the long table to the center-piece where fruits and llowcrs were artisticady grouped. The souvenirs displayed the artistic taste of Miss Annie Britton, of Phila delphia, and were of whn> satin rib* bon with gold lettering, «•. i bearing a good photograph ol me Paxson mansion, which has always beeu Wal lace Paxson’s home, with the excep tion of 20 years. Among the very pretty mementoes of the occasion, was a large square glass bottle with line etching, which had formerly belonged to Wallace Puxson’s great-grandfather John Lambert, for whom the City of Laui bertvillo was named, and who was Governor of Now Jersey and a Sena tor. Mr. Lambert case his vote for peace at the conference in 1812. In 1855 W. Wa lace Paxson, son of John K. Paxson, was married at 11 ol land Station, N. .1 , to Mary daughtei of John ('. and surah Quinn, of Mil ford, N. J. Their tli u* daughters are living and were present at the celehrutiou on Tuesday. It was a line winter day and tin* guest# were invited to assemble at 12 o'clock. As the Paxson family is one of the oldest Solehmy families a brief sketch may not he inappropriate. James, Henry and William Paxson, three brothers, came from England t<> Pennsylvania m the ship Samuel, ol London, in the year 1(182. James was doubtless the older brother and wu< probably married in England, at any rate his son, Henry Paxson, was bom in 1(188. These brothers settled in tin townships of Falls and Mi hl etown, Bucks county. When fletnv Paxson became of age lie eamo to Solehmy and purchased 250 acres < i laud ot William Oroasdale, which tad been deeded by William Penn to Thomas Oroasdale in 1082. Hem \ Paxson married Ann Plainly, at Falla meet mg, in 1700 This farm is situated in upper Solehmy, a little nortu of (Jen ire Hill. They had a family of twelve children. Thomas Paxson, the elev enth child of Henry and Ann Paxson, whs born June 17th, 172(5, and he mar ried Sarah Harvey, of Falls, in 1718 1'heir children were Abraham, Aaron, Moses and Ann Paxson. In the yea* 17(58 Thomas Paxson bought lots 9 aun 10 of the Pike tract in middle Sole bury', and liis second son \aron Pax ton, married Letitiu Knowles, a< Buckingham, in 1775. The date ol the building of the house on this farm was 1771, and it lias been m possess ion of the Paxaon family since 17(58 John K Paxson, the youngest child of Aaron and Letitiu Pixson, was born in 1784, and muriied Achsah Dennis, of New Jersey, in 1828.

Thu Spirit of Winter The Spirit of Winter is with us, making its proHonco known in many dilb*ront ways Hornet lines by cheery sunshine and glistening snows, and sometimes hy driving winds and blinding norms. To many people it seems to take a delight in making bad tilings worse, for rheumatism twists harder, twinges sharper, catarrh be comes more annoying, and the many symptoms of scrofula are developed and aggravated. There is not much poetry in this but there is truth, and it is a wonder that more people don’t get rid of those ailment*.
