HERGENRATHER'S Weekly SNAP SHOTS LIVES CHIEFLY IN MEMORIES This column is published for the benefit of our friends and customers. If you have an unusiually large hog or pumpkin, if there's a baby born, etc., let the editor of Hergenrather's "Snap Shots" know. Headline in a newspaper— "FINE FOR PROFITEERS." It has been, indeed! Everyone in this community knows that the Hergenrathehr Drug Company is the place to go to have prescriptions filled. A good speech should be measured the same as a dress. Both should be long enough to cover the subject, and short enough to be interesting. The People's Modern Pharmacy on the York Road, at Towson, just north of Pennsylvania avenue, is a small department store in itself and each department fully stocked with a little bit of everything, and you'll find courteous clerks there. Pay this store a visit and convince yourself. Speaking of Rest. A wealthy feminine enjoyer of poor health called upon her doctor. After a lengthy examination by the doctor and a more lengthy enumeration of her ailments, the doctor prescribed a rest. He had, however, failed to examine her tongue, and she was reminded of this fact. "Stick it out! Um-m, yes, that needs a rest too." . You'll find a beautiful assortment of Crepe de Chine and Georgette Crepe Shirt Waists at the People's Modern Pharmacy store. Cobbles, Cobbles, where are thy charms? Echo answers—"Ask the United Railways. I'll say you must. When you are real sick, don't you feel better if you know that Hergen-rather filled the prescription? I'll say you do. Toilet paper in rolls; 10, 15 and 25 cents. Have you a sidewalk in front of vour home? If not, ask the Sidewalk Committee. Why not? Boost! Don't knock. Sleepy Little Pennsylvania Community Has But One Really Busy Season in the Year. Within the limits of the city of Philadelphia, yet separate from the municipality proper, is the little village of Bustleton. Unlike its name, it is a sleepy community, peopled mostly by retired farmers. Bustleton is replete with historic lore. Old Bill Tilyer's Union hotel is a relic of the days when British and colonial troops overran the country. One sleeping chamber in the ancient Inn contains a great four-poster bed in which, so the historians of the vilt lage say, once slept "Mad Anthony" Wayne. Stories of midnight raids by British cavalry patrols, duels fought between the young bloods of the Quaker city in a grove in back of the inn, and ghosts of colonial soldiers stalking through the long halls of the structure, are told with great gusto by Bill Tilyer. The Union hotel has been handed down from father to son in the Tilyer family for nearly two centuries. But there is one time in the year when Bustleton really bustles. That is in the month of September, when the mushroom season opens. At sunrise dozens of men and boys may be seen plodding through the dew-laden pasture fields, armed with buckets and baskets. For the fei-tile fields in and around Bustleton yield many bushels of mushrooms, which are sold at the various markets in Philadelphia. Senator Kenyon says he will demand repeal of the appropriation granted by the las|t Congress to the Department of Justice to fight the high cost of living on the ground that it was used primarily to boost Palmer for « the Democratic Presidential nomination. CAN TAKE PRIDE IN HOUSE Domicile Expresses Personality That Can Be Pleasing, or the Reverse, as May Be. But the best, of a house is that It has an outside personality as well as an inside one. Nobody, not even himself, could admire a man's flat from the street; nobody could look up and say, "What very delightful people must live behind those third-floor windows." Here it is different. Any of you may find himself some day in our quiet street, and stop a moment' to look at our house; at the blue door with its jolly knocker, at the little trees in their blue tubs standing within a ring of blue posts linked by chains, at the bright-colored curtains. You may like it, but we shall ^ be watching you from one of the windows, and telling each other that' you do. In any case, we have the pleasure of looking at ourselves, and feeling that we are contributing something to London, whether for better or for worse. We are part of a street now, and can take pride in that street. Before, we were only part of a big unmanageable building.—From "Not That It Matters," by A. A. Milne.
