FAT PEOPLE EASILY "SUNSTROKE." Fat people are not only liable to sudden death from heart disease, apoplexy, etc., but statistics show that they are more liable than others to "sunstrokes" and affections arising from extreme heat.

Its use insures a reduction of from two to five pounds per week. If cor pulent people who are exposed to the rays of the sun value life, and a comfortable existence, let them use Allan's Anti-Fat.

THE COLUMBIAN AND COMMUNICATED, Jacison, July 16, 1878. lb IA4 CitUent 0 Columbia county: Since my name has been announced as a can didate for Ihe office of County Commissioner, a candidate for the same office n this side of tho river, has been circulating a report that I have absented myself from several meetings of tho Board of Commissioners upon the jail question in order lo shirk my responsibility, and throw the blame upon the majority of the commission ers Ac. However painful it is to me lo make a statement of the facta In the case running the risk of raising the animosity that existed In the board a year since justice to myself demands It. My course upon Iho injunction is loo well un derstood to have much advantage taken of It. After the Injunction was granted, 1 went to the office and ordered the clerk not (0 put Ihe jalt tax in county duplicates. He raid, as It had been ordered, one of the board could not change It. The jail tax was then put in a separate column from the county tax. 1 thought then the jail would not be built and the tax need not be collected. I Informed the collectors that I gave county duplicates to, not to collect the jail tax until further orders. Also that tho jail would not he built if I could prevent it. It is well known through the county that our regu lar stated meetings arc on the first Monday of the month. The minutes of July 2d, 1877 of the commissioners show that 1 was there, and the business of the office attended to. Issued orders No. !274 and 280 on bills approved ; ad journed. After we adjourned the collector of Bloom inquired of me about collecting tho jail lax. lie understood It was being collected In Catawlssa. In a few moments 1 saw htm and Mr. Hcrner talking, I went to them Herner or dered him lo collect it. I opposed it. Ho in timated to me that the jail might be built yel. I suggested to him lo wait, the Grand Jury might now recommend repairing the old nil, and lo build an addition lo it. I said to him at that time, I want you to understand I mn opposed lo collecting tho jail tax or building a jail. The minutes show Messrs. Herner and Sands the next day at the othec some business attended to nothing said about building jiil at that time. It is understood that Mr. Sands wrote a letter lo Mr. Herner on 6th (Thursday), that he should come to the otlicc on 7th. It is true I received a (Hiatal card the next wet k from Mr. Sands dated the Sth to be at the office the 7th. Any person acquainted with the mail route and my living about four miles from the post office, it would be by particular ar rangement to get it in so short a time. I will now give part of the minutes of July 7, 1877. In the Court of Common Pleas of Columbia County No. 1, May Teim 1877 In Equity. 'And now July 7, 1877. The commissioners of Columbia county submit the following prop osition. 1st, We will abandon the proposal lo erect the prison on the Pursell lot on Market street. 2d. Wu will rescind the contract and Ihe lil ting of the said new prison to Charles Krug under his hid heretofore announced. Signed John Hek.neii, J. E. San us. The injunction was dissolved nnd they enter ed into an agreement for the purchase of ihe Waller lot for county purpotes on that day. They met again on the 9lh int., nnd dtuided to have a meeting of the Board of Commission ers on the 13th and that Win, Krickbaum Clerk should give me notice of the same, mid time and place of meeting. Said not'ee lo be per sonal. I was notified July 12ili, 1877. Those three last meetings I knew nothing of nt the time and am prepared (o prove it. The min utes of July 13, 1877 show that it was a special meeting ordered by themjind that they present ed to me the article of agreement they had en" tered into the last Saturday, the 7lh for tho pur chase of the Waller lot for jail site, and wanted me lo sign it. 1 relused because said agree ment was entered into at a special meeting ithout my knowledge or consent, that I wn. in favor of old jail lot. The minutes show that Herner anJ Sands accepted the deed for Waller lot for county purposes. The jail question was brought up.whereupon I moved the building of the jail be postponed until the first Monday of February, 1878. No one seconding the motion it was lost. After I was convinced they were de termined to build a jail I favored a plan sub mitted by John Sterner that would havo cost twenty thousand dollars less than the present one. Every motion I made failed lo bo secoudid, every motion that carried was made by Mr. Sands and acquiesced in by Mr. Herner. If I was in sympathy with them in their proposed plan why should one of them say"whoever is in here" opposed lo building Ihe jail ihe sooner he gets out of here the heller." In conclusion I uill say: If any one wi-hes to have fiirtlierexplttna- lion if they will come in Ihe office nnd examine the minutes they can satisfy thcnis-dvcs. Silah W. MellL'.NiiY. CAUSES OK SUDORS' HEATH. Very few of the sudden deaths which are said to ariso from diseases of Ihe heart do real ly arise from that cause. To ascertain Ihe rea origin of sudden deaths, experiments have been tried in Kurojie and reported to a scientific con gress at Strasbourg. Sixlyscven cases of sud den death were mado the subject of a thorongli post mortem examination. In these only two were found who had died of disease of the heart Nine out of sixty-six had dial of apoplexy while they were forty-six cases of congestion o: the lungs that is the lungs were so full blood that they could not work, there not I ing room enough for a sufficient quantity of air to enter to support life, The causes that pro duce congestion of the lungs are cold feel, tight clothing, costive bowels, silling still, chilled af ter being .warmed with labor or rapid walking, going too suddenly from close, heated rooms In to Ihe cold air, especially after speaking, and sudden depressing news operating on tho blood The causes of sud len death being known, an avoidence of them may serve to lengthen many valuable lives which would otherwise bo lost under tue verdict "heart complaint," This dis ease is supposed to bo inevitable and incurable hence many do not take the pains they shouh to avoid sudden death. If they knew it lay in their power. ClIANUK IN THE NAME OK A RaILIIOAII, The old I). II. & W.

R. to build up tho riv. er, are disposed to defer Iho work as long us possible, and that Mr. Waller is really playing into their bauds in holding oil for better terms and by so doing giving them a better excuse for not proceeding wilh the work of construe tion.

Unpleasant Perspiration. The unpleas ant odor produced by perspiration Is frequently tho source of vexation lo persons who are sub ject lo it. Nothing Is simpler than to remove Ibis odor much more eflectuslly than by the ap plication of such costly unguents and perfumes as are In use. It Is first of all necessary to pro cure some of the compound spirits of ammonia, and place about two tablespoonfuls In a basin of water. Washing the face, hands nnd arms with Ibis leaves the skin as clean, sweet and fresh as one could wl-h. The waitli Is perfectly harm less and very cheap. Tin: Eclipse ov the Sun. Tho telegrams, show that excellent observations of tho eclipse) were obtained along Iho lino of totality at var ious places in Wyoming, Colorado, New Mex ico, Texas, Louisiana nnd Mississippi, Tho dispatches state that tho coiona was visible for sotuo distance from the sun, and vvns full of detail. So far no infoiuinlion has been receiv ed ol tho discovery of an intrainercurial plan et. East of tho Mississippi Iho sky was over cast with clouds, and no observations were ob tained ofanv scientific value. The eclipse was only partially isiblo in the cast, mid in many places it was not seen at all. The notes tnkrn by tho astronomers in Colorado were of an in teresting character. WATEItlNO PLACE MATCHES; Matches made at watering places are not al ways safe, and guardians and parents will be l-e to keep a watchful eye on their chargea and to inquire into the character nnd antece- enls of Ihe nice young men with whom wanl r daughter scrapes acquaintance In the ball room on the surf.

Gam blers and forlune hunters have no cloven foot which cannot be hidden by the conventional utcnt leather boots, and accidents have hap- iciied in well-regulated families. Because a man waltr.es well, shall he, without oilier pass- iort, dance with our daughters? Shall Mr. Smith's introduction suffice for Mr. Jones, when all we know of Mr. Smith is that ho wears a good coat, hoards at a good hotel, and drives a pretty team ? If an ounce of prevention is ever qual to a pound of cure, it is in such matters. Ml the snap in the universe cannot cleanse snuw once sullkd, and no woman (uu afijrd to in- iltilge in promiscuous flirtations. As for the men, they can lake care of themselves, and usually do It. It might be a convenience if Ihe custom common among some German peasants were intr duced with us the custom of Intlica ing the dowry of each maiden by tiie stripes on her bodice ; but possibly that is too much to ask of Congress in a land where heiresses are in the minorit. So the deserving young man who wishes to endow a fortune wilh her heart and and must take his chances, and when the biler s bit, Mr. and Mrs. 'Lamiuie have no cause to complain 'f they do not receive much sympa- lliy. Ex.

PfeilTer, who is about tweuty-five years of age, left homo sonic two and a half years ago, since which time ho lias assumed the role of an ad uenturer. After traveling through different parts of tho West, gullitig landlords oud oth ers, according to his own story in tho Inqui rer, ho brought up in Cincinnati, whero ho met a young, innocent and unsuspecting bru nette of eighteen summer, named Jessie I'y- att, whose mother is dead, and who had charge of her father's liouso and younger chil dren. PfeilTer, who was known to the Pyatt'a as Harry St. Clair, won tho affections of Miss Jessie against tho protest of her father who had 110 'particular liking for the fellow, and was not aware of his daughter's eiueere love in tint direction. Having business in thu South, -Mr. l'yatt left his family, with the greatest confidence that all would go right i his absence, m charge ol Jessie. Pleilter ta kin; advantago of the absence of the father, induced the daughter to run away and get married. Tho eouple.after having been joined in the holy bouds of wedlock, proceeded to boarding liouso in a different part of the city from where they had formerly lived Mr, Pyatt was summoned homo by a telegram fioui a young son conveying the startling intelligence that Jessio was about to run nway and be married to Hurry St. Clair. Tho parent has tened homo to find that his daughter had left anil was enjoying the title of Mrs. Jessie St, Clair. As soon as tho whereabouts of tho pair was established, ho sworo out a warrant against St.Clair, charging him with perjury, which charge was based on the grounds that when St. Clair took out tho marriage lieenso he sworo falely regarding tho girl. The war rant was placed in tho hands of an officer of the law, and Harry St. Clair was arrested and lodged in tho Central Station, and the wife removed to her father's stricken home. After remaining in custody for several hours the young man was interviewed by an Inquirer re porter to whom he acknowledged that ho had deceived the young lady, and also stated that his real namo was Fred, Pfeiffer, and that lus homo was m Ceiitraha.
