dened mind. Give Hood's Sarsaparilla
a fair trial. It will do you good.

church but the gentleman was hardly
out of sight when the unmannerly boys
resumed their noisy talk It became so
annoying to the minister that he was
compiled to stop his discourse until the
disturbers of God's worship were eject
ed. It were about time that an exam
ple be made of such unruly boys by giv
ing them a full dose of the law which
regulates such matters.
—Women's low House Shoes or Slippers,
the most comfortable shoe for everyday
wear, cheap, at Musser's Shoe Store.
—The hot weather of mid summer
has a weakening effect, both upon
body and mind. You feel absolutely
incapable of doing any arduous work,
aud even light duties ate performed
languidly and unwillingly. This low
stale of the system causes eyen greater
infirmity, and gives cpooitunity for
serious disease to gain a f.mthold. In
this condition the system is quick to re
spond to the reviving, quickening, and
strengthening effects of Hood's Sarsa
parilla. which purifies the blood, regu
lates the digestive organs, and infuses
fresh life and vigor into every portion
of the body. People who have taken
it write us, saying : "It puts new life
right into me." "It makes mo young
again." Reader, if you suffer from
surnmei weakness, try Hood's Sarsapa
rilla. 1(H) doses §l.

—C. K. Sober, of near Coburn, atten
ded a shooting tournament at Elmira,
N. Y. on the Ist of July, and came off
with the best record he has yet made in
glass ball shooting. The Elmira Daily
Advertiser speaking of the affair says :
Mr. Sober's exhibition was a truly
phenomenal one. lie shot at 111 glass
balls from seventy-eight positions, all
of them different and very dillicult,and
missed only thirteen. Dr. Carver,
Buffalo Bill, Captain Bogardus, and
many other marksmen have given exhi
bitions in this city, but none have ex
celled Mr. Sober's. He shoots at glass
balls without taking a sight at them,
and shoots accurately. Mr. Sober is a
lumberman, living at Lewisburg, Pa.,
and is not a professional marksman.
He says that he does pot know how he
acquired his skill, but "guesses it was
bora iu him."

—Tlie Loivisburg Chronicle has a
unique way of illustrating one kind of
religion and cutely leaves its readers to
perctive that there is another and bet
tor sort of religion. Thus .*
John Wiinantaker is superintendent
of the biggest Sunday school in Phila
delphia. That's good. And John Wtui
auiaker is a heavy stockholder in the P.
A It. railroad company, and that com
|iauy keeps thousands of men on the
go, every Sunday, with never a chance
to go to church, or Sunday school.
That's bad. And John Waiiauiaker is
only one out of thousands of such
goody-goody men who are ever so good
to themselves so long as money streams
into their clothes seven days in the
week. All this may be right, but, it's
funny.

A Very Old Bible.
Adam McAfee, of Market street,
among a largo numlier of valuable

aged 45 years, (1 months and 22 days.
The funeral will take place to-day, July

the foPowing paragraph from a
lengthy obituary notice in yesterday's
Mifiiiuburg TtUyraph.

THE FOURTH AT MILLHEIM AND
OTHKK POlNTS.—lndependence Day
was ushered in with lots of noise and
music at tiiis place. The town clock
had just finished the twelfth stroke ou
Sunday night when the young patriots
fired off the first cracker whicli was the
signal for a general fusillade all over
town. In a few minutes afterwards
the band struck up on the "Star Span
gled Banner" and for an hour kept up
tlie snint of the moment by playing
such lively airs as "Bully round the
llig, boys. The lied, White and Blue,
Ilail Columbia," assisted by an embryo
drum corps which furnished martial
music. People in town could not help
noticing that Independence Day had
come. As the weather during the day
was very hot and the farmers were busy
in the hay field there was very little go
ing on before evening,'but after six o'-
clock Millheim began to fill up with
people until about 7 o'clock, when the
hand gave an open air conceit on the
square, the streets were packed full of
l>eople. As previously announced the
hand proceeded to l'enn street as soon
as the time had arrived for the fire
works. They marched along their route
amidst the glare of illuminating lights
and were followed by the immense
ciowd of people who seemed very anx
ious to witness the display. It was es
timated that the crowd which lined
Penn, Centre and Water Streets num
bered about 1500 people. The brilliant
pyrotechnic display was inaugurated
by the successful ascension of a large
balloon, with (lie works attached,which
was followed by a fine lot of rockets,
colored mines and candles,fancy wheels
and triangles, batteries, &c. &c. It
la-ited about three-quarters of an hour
and was pronounced a fine treat by all
wno witnessed it. The town was hand
somely decorated and several of the
business places were illuminated in the
evening with Chinese lanterns. W. S.
Musser's hotel on Main street looked
specially attractive. The fireworks be
ing over the rink on Penn street where
the ladies of the M. E. Mite society
were holding their festival became the
centre of attraction and between the
band music, cake walks and hundreds
of people refreshing themselves at the
tables that place presented a yery lively
appearance for several hours.
As the celebration of the nation's
birthday seemed to he a more generalone
throughout the country this year, Mill
heim can justly sav that they caught a
good share of the enthusiasm and com
memorated the declaTation of independ
ence in a manner highly satisfactory
to all.
Centre Hull iiad a grand day of it.
Tlie celebration in that place consisted
iu fantastic parades, music, basket pic
nic, orations by Gov. Curtin, Hon. J.
B. Linn, and Judge JIIO. Orvis, and
wound up with a grand display of fire
works in the evening. It iff reported
that at about H o'clock in the morning
tlie town contained more people than
at any previous time in its history. A
number of Millheim people helped to
swell the large crowd there.
Prof. Lolscttc's Memory Discovery.
No doubt can be entertained about
the value and genuineness of Prof.
Loisette's Memory System as it is so
strongly recommeuded bylMarkTwain,
Mr. Proctor, Hons. W. W. Astor,
Judah P. Benjamin, Dr. Buckley, and
others. For full detalis we advise our
readers to send for Prof. L's prospectus
at 237 Fifth Avenue, New York.
From it we learn that the System is
taught by correspondence quite as well
as by personal instruction. Still we
note that colleges near New York have
secured his lectures. He has had 100
Columbia Law students, two classes of
200 each at Yale, 200 at Meriden, 250
at Norwich, 400 at Wellesley College,
and 400 at the Uuiversity of Penn. We
cannot conceive how a system could re
ceive any higher endorsement.

Obituary.
Maud Irene, daughter of If. F. & Annie
Confer, died at Millheim, July 7th, 1887,
aged 8 years, 3 months ami 27 days. Maud
hail been the subject of much aud severe
suffering for upwards of live years, and
during that time had Wen routined to the
house a great deal, and w hen going about
it was with difficulty that she could get a
long. Whenever at all aide, she was found
ut her place iu Sahliath school, where she
seemed to feel ut home aud where she is
now greatly missisi. Maud lingered along,
l>aUeutly enduring all, hut not iuiproviug
any in health. A numWr of weeks ago she
again had a relapse and continued to fail,
suffering very intensely. All that affection
ate parents, kind friends aud neighbors
could do, was done for her, but all to no
avail. On Thursday, July 7th, she passed
from suffering to rest, ami was buried on
the Sunday follow ing. Thus another fam
ily circle has been broken on earth and a
new one Wgun above. During her loug
and severe atllictiou Maud had the symjwi
thy of every one who knew her. The par
ents have the consolation that while she
suffered tnueh her rest is likewise complete.
May all so live that the reunion above iuay
W us pleasant as the parting was painful.

Tliis Castle was instituted on the 22nd of

it took some time until the object and eon
dition of the order became known. 40
ineinliers have been initiated. 4 elected (not
vet initiated and 10 applications for mem
iiership at the last meeting, several of
which, however, could not Is* considered on
account of not being accompanied by the
required fee and 1 woud just here remark

der that no applications will be considered

will lie returned;
This order was introduced into Pennsyl
vania Oct.lst 1875, but upto about 1882 very
little had lieeu done, showing that the peo
ple of Pennsylvania do not go into any
thing Mindly; but after a thorough investi
gation into the origin and ground-work of
the organisation, being satisfied that the
order is a genuine one, they began work
and now the order liutulicrs over 180 Castles
and between 20,000 aud 30,000 menbers in
this state.
It is considered one of the finest organiza
tions in the county and is represented by
some of the liest men and highest officers of
all the other benevolent and charitable in
stitutions, who do not hesitate to pronounce
the order of the Knights of the Golden
Eagle second to none.
The object of the order is to promote the
principles of true benevolence by associat
ing its members together for tlie purpose of
mutual relief against the trials and difficul
ties attending life. The order is based U|M>II
the most liberal principles consistent with
future prosperity ami especially adapted
for all, lie they rich or poor. Its mottoc is,
Fidelity, Valor & Honor. It conflicts with no
religous or political lielicf, nor interferes
with any duty one owes to his family, self
or friends.
This Castle is still receiving members on
the Charter foes(X 50) which affords a gold
en opportunity for all within reach of this
Castle to join. This opportunity should be
improved at once as tlie Charter fees may
close iu a week or two after which it will
cost about three times as much.

The Importance of partfying the blood ean-
Dot be overestimated, for without pure blood
you cannot enjoy good health.
At this season nearly every one needs a
good medicine to purify, vitalize, and enrich
the blood, and we ask you to try Hood's
fcanaparllla. It strengthens
rCtUllal and builds up the system,
creates an appetite, and tooes the digestion,
while it eradicates disease. The peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation
of the vegetable remedies used give to
Hood's Sarsaparilla pecul-re-. |i AA ix
lar curative powers. No * 0 ItSClf
other medicine has such a record of wonderful
cures. If you have made up your mind to
buy Hood's Sarsaparilla do not be induced to
take any other instead. It ia n Peculiar
Medicine, and is worthy your confidence.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is sold by all druggists.
