Kenews Her Youth.
Mrs. l'hoelio ('lii' Shy. Peterson, Flay Co. lo
wa, tells tbe following remarkable story, the,
Iriuli of wliteh is vouelied for by the residents
of the town: '1 am 7d years old, have been
troubled with kidney complaint and lameness
for nmiiv years: could not dress myself without
help. Now lam free from all pain and sore
ness, and am able to do all my own house
work. I owe my thanks to Electric Hitlers for
haviiur renewed my youth, and removed com
pletely nl disease and nuin."
Try a bottle, only ode at .1. Elsenbuth's Drug
store.
—The Ladies' Aid Society of the E
vangelical congregation of MillLeim
have placed a costly and very hand
some chandelier in the audience room
of their church. It is of a neat design,
of polished brass with IS lamps in two
rows, 7 feet wide and 8 feet high. It
was puichased of Ilackenburg AiYorso,
Milton, Pa., and seems to give entire
satisfaction.
JUMBO EVERGREEN SWEET CORN.
—Mr.B.O.Deininger met with unusual
good success this season in raising a
fine and large crop of sweet corn on
his lots on Penn street. By persevering
and untiring labor he got the soil in a
first-class state of cultivation and the
result is a superior crop of corn. lie
baptized it as above heading reads and
will sell quantities of it for seeding
purposes.
—A western paper alludes to some
fellow it don't like as "a blear-eyed,
slab-sided, pot-stomached, black heart
ed, hide-bound, white-livered, lantern
jawed, hump-backed, addle-beaded, sil
ly-minded, pigeon-heeled, sin-stained,
ham-strung, weazen-faced, web-footed,
foul-mouthed liar." The editor of
that paper has indeed a rich flow of
emphatic adjectives in his language
which hardly leaves a good spot on his
victim.
—At the lowest estimation there will
be 3000 veterans at tl'ie grand soldiers'
reunion at Lewisburg on the 9th. Cen
tre county will be strongly represented.
Several fire companies expect to fall iu
line In tlie large parade which will take
place most likely in the forenoon. The
town will be decorated with a splendid
profusion of national colors and there
will be no end to band and marshal
music. The excursion rates are low
and many people will visit the burg to
spend the day with the "boys in blue."
—While waiting on the down train
at the Spring Mills station last Friday
afternoon we had the pleasure of meet
iug Key. S. G. Shannon, of Sunbury,
who had been ou a short visit at Squire
Ilering's and was about returning
home. Mr. John C. Colt and Mr.
Todd, of Northumberland, both wide
awake representatives of the Psnn Mu
tual Life Insurance company were
also on hand and ready to board the
train. When compelled to wait on a
train there is nothing more pleasant
than to fall in with congenial company.
—Can't we organize an excursion and
have a grand Picnic on the Lewisburg
Fair ground during their fair Y We
ought to take down such a carload as
would astonish the natives. The rail
road company offers excursion rates,
but such an excursion as we suggest
would get us much lower rates. The
display at the fair will be worth all it
will cost, besides having a picnic and
railroad ride. It will afford an oppor
tunity to witness some fine races and
see some of the finest stock of all kinds
in the country. Who will be first to
move in this matter Y Did you see
their bills Y
—A few of our half-grown town
boys played one of their thoughtless
tricks last Thursday, which might have
resulted in much damage had it not
been discovered in good time. They
filled a hollow tiee, about two feet in
circumference, and standing on I). A.
Musser's land near the foundry dam,
with dry leaves and with a match lit
the intlamable pile. In a short time
the tree was a column of fire, burning
very briskly igniting a fence near by.
Several dozen buckets full of water
checked the lively conilagration. Boys,
if you are ever tempted to indulge in
that kind/>f fun again, remember that
you may have to pay dearly for it.
FREDDIE WILLIAMS. —That grim
monarch, death, made his appearance
among us again last Saturday, taking
from Mr. and Mrs. Irviu Williams
their only child, Freddie. The little one
would have been two years old in Octo
ber. His death, which was caused by
that dread disease, cholera infantum,
seems to set so much harder on his pa
rents, because he was actually only
sick four days and having been a real
bright little boy was growing dearer
to his parents every day. The parents
have the sympathy of the entire com
munity in their sad bereavement.
May they find consolation in the Sa
viour's loving words "Suffer little chil
dren to come unto me, and forbid them
not, for of such is the kingdom of
Ileayen." The funeral took place on
Tuesday forenoon, Rev. Deitzler otli
\ ciating.
Prof. W. T. Meyer, tells us that
the famous Rescue band, of Shamokin,
ot which he is the. conductor, will bo in
attendance at the <. A. U. minion at
Lcwishiug on tliC 9th of September and
will some time during the day give a
grand open air concert. This will bo
another attractive feature of Lewis
burg's ga'a day.
—The tolling of the Evangelical
church bell on Monday evening an
nounced the death of I). ('. Wilt, Esq.,
which occurred at Franklin, Pa., on
Monday, Aug. .'lO. Mr. Wilt was un
til of late years one of Millheim's old
est. and best known citizens, and sewed
a term as Justice of the Peace of Penn
township about twenty years ago. lie
will be remembered by many as a very
affable gentleman and a passionate vio
linist. In 4t ye olden times" he would
on fine summer evenings sit on the
porch of bis brick residence on Main
street and treat the neighborhood to
some lively strains on his violin. Sev
eral years ago be and bis wife left this
place to take up their residence with
their son at Franklin.
—John Kerstetter, Jr , and bis crew
(•f carpenters, finished the inside work
in Musser & Smith's new and elegant
storerooms on Tuesday evening. The
large plate glass show windows were
fitted into the sash last Friday and af
ter the woodwork is painted in dark
green with gold trimmings, it will be
the finest stoie front on this side of the
mountain. As usual Mr. Kerstetter
displayed great taste and mechanical
&kill in the erection of this large and
imposing building, which needs only to
be seen to convince you that, as an
architect and builder be is second to
none. He says he is now ready to ac
cept any other job of the kind and of
course insures perfect satisfaction. It
will pay you to give John a call if you
have anything to build.
GRANDEST PICNIC OF TIIE SEASON.
—There will be a great outpouring of
the people of Penns and Brush Valleys
on Saturday, September 11th, next, to
attend a general basket picnic at the
celebrated Penn's Caves 011 that day.
The committee who are managing the
affair have spared 110 labor to make it
the most pleasant and enjoyable occa
sion of the season. The Itebersburgand
Millheim bands have already signified
their intention to furnish the music
and the bands of the western end of
Penns Valley have been invited to bo
present, and are expected to take part
in the day's pleasures. An excursion
through the interior of the caves will
form an interesting and spicy part of
the programme. Other amusements
will be 011 the grounds and the gather
ing promises to be one of extraordinary
size and enjoyment. Come one, come
all :
THAT FACTORY.— Millheim and its
citizens have been agitating the project
of getting a hosiery factory here for
the last three weeks and we think by
the time this paper Is in the bands of
our readers the question will be settled
either one or the other way. Mr.
Crawford, the here at
present to complete negotiations and at
the time of this writing it would seem
as if the necessary funds could be rais
ed and the enterprise started. Should
the matter be decided favorably as we
earnestly hope it will tor the sake of
the town, it will give Millheim a boom
that will be a blessing to all its busi
ness people as well as to the poor and un
employed element of town. A factory
that will employ fifty hands at the low
est calculation, both sexes and from
fifteen years up, is exactly what this
town has been wanting ever since the
railroad is completed. And of all
industries this one is especially adapt
ed to this country, and will throw out
its beneficiary infiuence over a radius
of several miles around the town. We
trust the business people, the mechan
ics and the laboring men will look at
this undertaking in the right light and
comprehend the immeasurable good
that all will derive from it. Let every
man, rich or poor, show his willing
ness to contribute according to his
means and thus secure the establish
ment of this factory. Of qourse there
are quite a number of mechanics and
laborers in our town that are unable to
assist in a pecuniary way, but we
would say to them that several days of
work at the proposed factory building
will be as acceptable as so many dollars
in money. All that is necessary is
the will to do your share and success
will he the result. We say take a hold
of the project and keep the factory here
and you will neyer regret it.

SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR
For all Diseases of the
liver, Kidneys, Stomach and Spleen.
This purely Testable pre
paration, now so celebrated as a
Family Medicine, originated in
the South in 1838. It acts
frontly on the Bowels and
Kidneys and corrects the
action of the Liver, and is, there
fore, the best preparatory
medicine, whatever the sick
ness may prove to be. In all
common diseases it will, tin
assisted by any other mcdi*
cine, effect a speedy cure.
The It emulator is safe to administer in any
condition of the system, and under no circnm
stanees can it do harm. It will invigorate
like a glass of wine, but is no intoxicatingbever
ago to lead to intemperance; will promote di
gestion, dissipate headache, and gener
ally tone up the system. The d&e is small,
not unpleasant, and its virtues undoubted.
No loss of time, no inter
ruption or stoppage of .
business while taking .the. ,

Children complaining of
Colic, Headache, or Sick
•stomach, a teaspoonful or
more will give relief.
If taken occasionally by pa
tients exposed to MALARIA,
will expel the poison and protect
them from attack.
