learned who the prospective purchasers
"are!
The Pennsylvania railroad, through tho
Susquehanna Coal company and affili
ated' companies, produces and ships ap
proximately 1Q per cent of e hard coal
mined. The company owned or'controlled
about 17.000 acreb of anthracltA cnnl 1n.ni?.
A, report spread that .the Pennsylvania
railroad was getting rid of Its hard coal
holdings to avoid conflict with tho Hep
burn railroad act, prohibiting a railroad
from transporting in Interstate commerce
any article or commodity manufactured
or mined by It or under Its authority.
No"one at the company's general offices
would discuss the report. .
Also Owns Steel Stock.
.The Pennsylvania railroad -also owns a
controlling interest in the Cambria Steel
company, amounting to about 22.000,00i
Thire'has been-a report current that the

Advertising is the
Best Policy.
Retailers no longer consider
it a question as to whether or
not advertising: pays. The ques
tion is how to advertise so that
the greatest number of peoples
may be constantly .informed ot
the ever changing and interest
ing store news.
Retailers agree that tha best
medium through which their
advertising ma, bo circulated is
through newspapers like The
Bee newspapers with an in
fluential home circulation.-'
Advertising in newspaper
has become to he such a recog
nized factor in all shopping
transactions in this vicinity that
many of our readers would ac
tually resent it, and tho pape
would. Jose a great part of its,
value, it we should suddenly
stop printing advertjaeraeata.
