High Iles-IK.—Dr. William IL Pan
coast, of Philadelphia, remarked the oth -
day, after performing a painful operation
on au interesting little girl whose feet
had been ruined by wearing, wrongly
constructed shoes, "this is the heginning
of a litrge harvest of such cases." And
what else can be expected? Mothers
walk the ptreets with heels on thetr .hotla
trent one tiithree and a half inches high;
and not more than an inch in diameter,
and their daughters follow the same bad
and barbarous practice. In many eases
severe spraius of the ankles are suffered.
Ilut these are Irk the tVoirst. fritits Of:the,
high heel torture. The toes are-forced
against the fore -nail of the • boot, and
soon begin to assume unnatural posi
tions. In many cases they are actually
dislocated. In others the great toe pliss
es under the foot the tendons harden in
the, position, and lameness is Contracted
for 7 which there is no cure but the knise.
When the injury does'nertakethis form
it assumes other aspects almost ashorri
ble and distressing. There -are thou . -
&and of young girls tiptoeing it along our
streets to-daytwho in a few years,:will-be
cripples if their parents do not interfere,
and remove the cause. - We wilbiliave
race of women almost as helpless, as far
as wat king is concerned as those of
Ctu
ns. We condemn the practice of confin
ing the feet of Chinese children in wood
en shoes, and yetthat practicels no more
injurious to the feet than forcing them
into a small boot; with an Alpine heel.
This-is a matter of grave and serious im
, port., and hence we press it upon the
mothers and lathers of the land. If they
would not feed the surgical hospitals,
and have groups, of manned daughters
in their homes, flies' most commence a
crusade upon high heelS. No father
should have high heeled boots in his
house, any more than he Would keep a
vicious dog in the parlor. When skillful
surgeons l i its: Dr. Pancoast, from the op
erating room, raise there voices agaitist
high-heeled boots, it is titre CO)" old had
young ladies to paps° 'and listen. I
WE pledge our reputation on the
a,sertion that any educated phySleian,
after a careful examination of the recipe,
will say that Parsons' Pars/afire Pala

Man Killed by a Train or Cara.
—A fatal accident occurred Tuesday
night of last week, at Glendale station,
on the,Pittsburgh,:Fort Wayne and Chi
cago ItailwitS . , a Weight train running
over a man at that point, killing him in
stantly. It appears that the train had
nearly reached Pittsburgh, when it was
dis‘covered that the caboose at the rear
had become detudficd. The train had
gone eome distance before the absence of
the caboose was discovered. Then it was.
stopped, and commenced backing to find
the missing car. The rear lights were
on the caboose, and, as we are:lnformed,
no lights were placed out en'the end of
the train when the backing commenced.
Atter backing a part of the distance, the
train struck and knocked down a man
who Was wal kingon the track,' the cars
passed over. the Unfortunate man, mang
ling him dreadfully, and killing him in
stantly. It would seem that he was
walking.loward the city, and it is thought
that, after the freight train passed him
ho stepped upon the track in the rear of
it, and walked, never dreaming of dan
gr impending front the train he was fol

Democrat and showed his patriotism
and public spirit by erecting at his own
expense at the close of the war, a monu
ment to the memory of the soldiers from
this county, who fell In their country's

by a handsome iron railing. It was put

The M. E. Church coin.pleted through
the untiring energy of Rev. A. D. Mor

Seminary and Institute in our town, is a
model church .in many respects. It is
completely carpeted and upholstered
seats, and hacks being cushioned which
adds very materially. to the comfort, of
the congregation, especially if the ser
mon be dull. And why should wo not
render our churches both attractive and p
comfortable? Can we spend money te
better advantage for ourselves or our
families? The day is past when we should
so construct our churches I 1 SI to render
them repulsive or compel the worship
ers at the same time to do penance. We
are too much inclined to follow out the
Catholic idea, that we must do penance in
connection with our worship.

conducted by Chartes elq. It is
thought to he'unsurptissed as a • country
newspaper, is "independent - it - says,

favor of liberal wages to school teachers,
outspoken on the subject of temperance,
which may excuse it for Its puns at the

A Probable Sehisaa,ln the M.

sprung up among members of the M. K

trouble in that organization.

It is belioved,to be p, diskingt work, usu

Mr, EDITOR :-111 your lasCis nu arts-i
cle, pert of which is no doubt intended
for me. 1 quote the last three sentences
which are as follows
"When the Aftsociation had held a six*
and meeting and Um report of Its pro-.
ceedings had been made publia sou not
one seemed to take - notice of these, I
suppose "private opinions of its MOM
bera, ' it occurred to we that attention
should be t.tilled to those monstrous
"opinions."
"Does any one feel that his "private
opinions" will not endure the gaze ui
public opinfini ? if so, he must be the
wounded bird.
"Not baying any "bile" to work otr
through the public press, 1 caniot be
provoked into a newspaper controversy,
and therefore close my comtnunicatious
on this subject with this article.
Yours, ,tc,,
R. Ts.t Lon."
Unfortunately for the farce of the first
paragraph, his inquiry and the proceed
ings of the next meeting were published
to the mine column.
To the stat end I reply. The private
op:nlons referred to were remarks of
members before any discussion occurred
and at the meeting previous to the one
appointed for the discussion. In that
sense only did speak of them as pri
vate. I have no private opinions on the
subject. I . & ne.y belitiee that wine is

of all intoxicating drinks on the pallet...,

has been my rule for nearly forty years ;

I am glad the gentleman has no "bile"
to work oil. Lam not of a bilious habit,
but I can rejoice to see others getting
clear of their they have no more
to work off. The idea cif :being-provok

what I saw a boy do on our street. Ile
