GHOST IS AVERSE

Decades Ago.
Greensburg, Pa.—Residents of Car
bon. a mining village a mile southwest
-of here, are greatly exercised over the
weird Sittings about late at night of
what is declared to be a ghost clad
in a snow white gown. This ghost, it
is said, has on three different occasions
between midnight and one o’clock
aroused Peter Oleson, a Norwegian
i»iner, who lives alone in a small
“What Do You Want?”
bouse, with its strange rappings on his
door, more vigorous than those of Poe’s
raven. Oleson arose promptly on each
occasion and when he opened his front
door the figure of what he believed was
a young woman in a white robe stood
on his step.
“What do you want? Come into ray
bouse—I would not hurt you,” Oleson
declares he told the strange fig
ure, but he failed to get answer
and when he would attempt to lay
hands on It the ghost would give a
shrill cry and disappear. On three
saicceeding nights the hobgoblin ap
peared at the Oleson home and three
times did the snow white figure refuse
the Norwegian's invitation to come
into his house and to give him an ac
count of its mysterious presence.
Frank Piso, an Italian neighbor, was
also called to his door in response to
the “woman in white” rapping. Frank’s
Experience was similar to those of
Oleson.
r William Majors, Carbon grocer for
many years and a local “ghost author
ity,” says the nocturnal visitor in the
white dress is the ghost of a very
pretty young woman captured by the
Indians in their flight from eastern
Pennsylvania many years ago.

Womanly Charm
1 and Laundry Service '
| Nature intended that woman
1 should have charm and at
tractiveness of person. The
preservation of that charm has
been a duty of woman ever
since Eve first saw herself
I mirrored in a forest pool.
But perhaps the connection
| between our laundry service
| and your personal appearance
hasn’t occurred to you. Never
theless, there is a connection
! and a close one.
f
We offer you freedom from
the household task that from
| time immemorial has coars
I ened the hands and robbed
woman of her bloom—the
. family washing.
If you would protect your
self from washday exposure
these winter days; if you would
add to your own comeliness;
I-S
if you would have your family
washing done in the most
modem fashion, telephone us.
We will do your family
washing in the softest of pure
waters, and in foamy, billowy 1
suds of flaked soap. It is a
washing that restores newness
to your clothes and to the
children’s. It sterilizes them, 1
too. |
Then we iron everything
for you—giving to everything 1
a most dainty finish. You will f
find the cost very moderate. f
You simply give your bundle
to our driver—and we return
it immaculate at a definite
time each week. It is the |
modem way of preserving
personal charm arvd ending
winter washdays.
Call us up. I
