nsked tho superintendent If ho had n per.
son nt the Institution qualified as maid of
all work on a farm. Tho superintendent,
n a locular vein, said ho had no such per-
son there, but there was an inmate who
would mako him an excellent wife. Tho
farmer nsked to sco her. Her appearance
leased him, nnd tlio two soon struck up a

HouorH to tlic Dead,
Last Saturday .illcruooii nil that was
mortal of General Grant wns consigned lo
tho tomb. All over this broad land, North,
South, East nnd West, tho day was solemn
ly observed, nnd memorial services held.
In this town tho ceremonies wcro conduct-
od by Knt Post, G. A. It. All places of
business closed at 12 o'clock, and at 2 p.
tho Court Houso and church bells wcro
tolled. A largo amllenco gathered nt tho
Opera House whera tho services began at
45. 1 ho stage was occupied by members
t tho post, numbering nbont 100, and tho
clergy of the town. Tho exercises opened
1th a hymn by the choir, Miss Nuss pre-
Idlng nt thu organ. A portion of the G.
It. ritual wns then read, n prayer oilcred
by Rev. N. Spear, a hymn followed, a
chapter of scripture was read by Rev. A.
Iirlttain, nnd the addresses were made by
Reys. Waller, Tusthi, Zahner, Monroe,
Siewart and Straycr. Tho closing portion
of the ritual was then read, after which
tho audience was dismissed with tho bene
diction by Rev. Mr. Bridcnbaugh.
Tho hall was appropriately draped, and
n portrait of tho dead hero hung from the
centre of tho stage, with a wreath of roses
surrounding It. A vacant chair, heavily
draped, stood at tho front of tho stage, in
token of the death of a comrade.
flic addresses wcro all of an appropri
ate and Interesting character, and the sol
emnity of tho occasion seemed to bo felt
and appreciated by the largo congregation.
No American citizen has over received
greater homage, living or dead, than was
paid to General Graut, and his memory
will go down to coming generations ns ono
of tho grentcst soldiers of tho world.
Wasliliiir ncrrlcH.
Mrs. Emma P. Ewlng, in a very good ar
ticle about bcrrlcs.published in the Woman's
3ragtuinet makes sensible reply to tho fre
quently repeated asseveration that it qullo
ruins berries to wasli them. She says:
A great deal of nonsense is talked and
written about destroying thu fino flavor of
articles of food by washing them, when,
ns a matter of fact, the flavor Is seldom iu-
jured in the slightest degree, but In nino
cases out of ten is materially imptoved by
the Judicious use of clear water. Most
plain, practical people, who have given
tho subject any thought, prefer dispensing
with flavors which exist only In the imagl
nation of esthetic culinary critics, for the
sake of gcting rid of the sand, dust, bac
teria worms, bug legs, etc., that are in'
separable from fruit on sale in the market.
without a righteous baptism of pure water,
And the coat of tho stomach of tho aver
ago citizen is in far more danger from this
organic and Inorganic nastlness than from
properly washed berries. And for people
who conscientiously believe that "cleanli
ness is next to godliness," strawberries,
raspberries and all small fruits arc im.
proved by being properly rinsed, drained
and sprinkled lightly witli granulated su
gar ten or fifteen minutes before they are
crved. A common, but very slovenly
way of washing berries, and ono well cal
culated to ruin them, is to throw the her-
ries Into n quantity of wntor before the
stems are removed, and let them lie soak
inc while being picked out singly and
hulled or stemmed. The correct method
of washing all kinds of berries is to caro
fully stem aud pick them over; a few mm
utc3 before they arc needed placo in a basin
or bowl of cold water, tumble about gently
and quickly Willi the hands, rcmovo
sprinkle lightly with tine granulated sugar
and serve."

Tlic Court House Deluded,
Last week, Thursday afternoon, the old
roof was entirely removed from the Court
House, preparatory to putting on n new
slato roof. It was Icft-ln this unprotected
condition, and on Friday It rained hard all
day, nnd the water poured down through
the ceilings into tho court room and law
library, and on down Into tho ofllccs on the
first floor. Tlio paper on tho celling of the
Sheriff's office was completely washed off,
and wns moro or less Injured in the other
ofllccs. At ono time It looked as though
all tlio books in the library would have to
bu removed, but bv nnttlntt hnnnlQ nlmvn
tho cases tho water was turned off. so that
no damage was dono beyond soiling the
covers of a few books.
An examination of the ceilings has I
shown that tho plaster is solid nnd will I
not havo to bo taken off, aud it will require
but a few dollars to repair all damages.
Tlie HolUlers' Home.
The efforts made by tho citizens of this
town towards securing the location of a
Soldiers' Home here aro commendable, but
tho prospect of success in tho movement is
not brilliant. Tho commission met at Erie
last week.
Officers were received from Gettysburg.
Valley Forge, Lewisburg, Pittsburg, Now
Brighton, Conncllsvllle, Kiskimlnctas
Springs, Summit, In Cambria, Kimbcrton,
in Chester, Dubois and Mcchnnlcsburg.
Those present were evenly divided on tho
acceptance of thu Erio property. Tho Gov
ernor, General Beaver, Major Brown, and
Auditor-Gcnerul Nilcs are in favor of Erie,
whilo Generals Wagner, Bcnth, Vander-
slice and Stewart aro favorable to locating
tho homo In tho Eastern part ot Pennsylvn-
nla.
The commission cannot purc.iaso grounds
or buildings, so any locality that docs not
offer grounds free or on lease will stand no
chance of securing the Home. If Blooms.
burg is in earnest in tho matter, it must bo
prepared to offer tho commission n site
that will cost the Stale nothing. Other
places arc doing this, and wc must do as
much, If wo expect to havo our claims con-
sidercd.

denounco him ns a parasitical nuisance.

M. L. Blair, Alderman 5th ward, Scran

Dr. Thomas' Eclcctrlc Oil for sprains, burns,
cuts, bruises nnd rhumatlsm. Cured every
time.
The best doctors ueo Hunt's Kidney
Remedy among their most valued prescrip
tions. 'The ladles especially go Into ecstaclcs
over Parker's Hair Balsam," writes Mr. J.
11. Decker, druggist of Findlay, Ohio.
"They say It Is tho most elegant dressing
they ever used." Stops falling hair, res
tores color, promotes growth.
Hunt's Remedy cures headache, costlv
ucss, dyspcpslu, diseases of the liver and
kidneys.
Side by side In tho drug store stand Vin
egar Bitters and the hcnltli-blastlng prepar
ations fired up with bad rum. 'lako your
choice between the vital elixir and the
deadly poisons. The one cures every dis
ease of thu stomach, ooweis, liver auu
nerves, thu others nccrnvnte all human ail
ments. Vinegar Bitters strengthens, the
others weaken.
Dip ono ond of n sponge in water and tho
whole will soon bo saturated. So a disease
in ono part of the body affects other parts.
You have noticed this yourself. Kidney
and liver troubles, unless checked, will
induce constipation, piles rheumatism nnd
gravel. A timely use of Dr. Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy will prevent tneso ic
! I
eulls. It. Is pleasant to the taste and may
bo taken freely by children nnd delicate
females. It gives the elasticity, life and
cheeks with roses on them.
Ayur's Snrsuparllla Is designed fr those
who need a medicine- to purify their blood,
build them up, tncrenso their appetite, nnu
rejuvenate their whole system. No other
preparation so well meets this want. It
touches the exact snot. Its record of forty
years is one or constant triumph over dis
ease.
VllCSlI COMPLEXIONS.
Ifyou have humois nnd pimples, boils and
eruptions on face, hands or skin, it is be-
cause the system needs tning anu pimiy.
Ing. Nothing will give you such good
. ouiuuwi nuu imu ciiu ifcui
ous feeling ns Simmons, Uver Regulator,
purely vegetable and not unpleasant to the
taste. Tako tho Regulator to stimulate
tho liver, to cleanse the eyes and skin of
yellowness, to improve digestion nnu to
mnko the breath puro and sweet.
"It fairlv wearies mo to think of the mul
titude of tilings advertised to cure disease,"
you say. No wonder. But in tho mount
ains of chaff their are grains of golden
wheat. Wo may llnd it difficult to induce
you to test tho merits of Dr. Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy, but when you navc.dono
so, our work is ended. Aftcrwnjkjs you
