This, of course, was to be expected ; but the effect has been to demonstrate the superior mcV 'ts of Dr. Ayer's preparation by a con stantly increasing demand for it. Powder Lawlessness Leads to Murder- Lawlessness the violent interfer ence with the rights of others, in )i berty, in property, in life has had its natural outcome in assassination The labor leaders at Homestead and Pittsburg will eagerly denounce the shooting of Mr. Frick, and it is not doubtid that they sineerely regret, at this moment, the mad act of an lr responsible follower ; nevertheless, they will be unable to separate it, in the public mind, from the anarchistic doc trines they have been proclaiming and the rtotous revolt against Uw an safety that they have encouraged or defended. It was not an American who did this thins. It was an alien to our whole system of liberty and order, And it is quite time for all Americans to take pause and consider to what this foreign system of socialistic mad ness, of armed revolt and of govern ment by committees inevitably leads. It leads to murder and to ararchy. Times. The following letters are held at the BloomsDurg, Pa,, post office and will be sent to the dead letter office Aug ust 9, 1892. Mr. P.

The standard of Female loveliness varies greatly m ditterent countries and with individual tastes. Some pre fer the plump and buxom type: some admire the slender and sylph-like, and some the tall and queenly maiden. But among all people of the Caucasian race, one point of beauty is always ad mired a pure, clear and spotless com plexionwhether the female be of the blonde, brunette, or hazel eyed type. This first great requisite of loveliness can be assured only by a pure state of blood, active liver, good appetite and digestion, all of which are secured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi cal Discovery. It is guaranteed to ac complish all that is claimed for it, or money refunded. If you would have a clear, lovely complexion, free from eruptions, moth patches, spots and blemishes, use the "Golden Medical Discovery." Two Harvest Excursions- VIA THE CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE & ST.

Where the grasses are kissed by the wand'ring breeze, And the fields are rich with the golden grain ; Where the schooner ploughs through the prairie seas, To its destined port on the western plain ; Where homes may never be sought in vain, And hope is the thriftiest plant that grows ; Where man may ever his rights main tain, The land is as free as the wind that blows.

The chairman stated that if the dele gates were apportioned in accordance with the last Governor's vote there would be eighty-six delegates in the conven tion, which is one or more than is al lowed under the rules of the party, and suggested that the township having the lowest approximate vote lose the dele gate. Upon examination, it was dis covered that at the last gubernatorial election Briarcreek township had cast 161 Democratic votes and Centre 165. After some discussion, ormotion one delegate was taken from the rep resentation of Briarcreek. On mo tion of B. J. Doyle, of N. Conyngham, and seconded by Chas. Fruit, of Mad ison, it was resolved to recommend to the next County Convention the advis ability of revising the rules of the Democratic party of Columbia Coun ty, relative to the representation of election districts, to meet the require ments of the increased number of the same.

"Near Found du Lac, Wis., there used to be a farm house that was reputed to be haunted," said Chris Booth at the Laclede. "It was an old, deserted, tumble-down affair, in which a pack peddler was once found with his throat cut. One night a party of eight or ten wild young fellows went out to the house deter mined to capture his ghostship. After spending a couple of hours at the lonely place, and finding no ghost, we started home. We were walking down the railroad tract through a large cornfield, when sud denly a white object sprang out of the corn and rushed toward us, uttering shrieks evidently intended to be appalling. Did we run? Not much. We were out hunting ghosts, and were overjoyed to have one rush up to us. We advanced upon it, and it changed its mind and made good time in the other direction. We captured it and tied it to a telegraph pole. It protested that it was no ghost, but only a Fond du Lac clerk, who had come out to have a little fun with us, and that its hunger for hilarity was now satisfied; but we didn't believe it. We tied it up securely and went on, supposing that another party, some distance behind us, would tie it loose. Instead of that they shot at it a couple of times, then came in and alarmed the town. Four big police men went out on a handcar and brought it in. It was a terribly cool ehost. A white shirt and a pair of low cut shoes made rather a scant toilet for a November night in Wis consin. The young man was fur nished with a second hand pair of pants and permanently, retired from the ghost ousiness." Children Cry for Pitcher's Castorla. THE KING'S DAUGHTERS nitidis AN (I (JR('.AM.:A I ION K Will, KNOWN OKPKK. I 111' As there is an organization of the King's Daughters in Bloomsburg. the following article from the Philadel phia TimcH will be read with interest: King's Daughters in a democratic country, where the stars and stripes wave supreme? Yes. hundreds of them, too, in all the States and nearly every city from the Golden Gate to Plymouth Rock, from the Peninsular State to the farthest north. A Mal tese cross, a knot of royal purple rib bon, perhaps a tiny silver ring or the pretty violet stationery are about the only outward insignia of the royalty, for the Kings Daughters are to be all glorious within, not dwellers in palaces, but simply a sisterhood of service The name "King's Daughters" has come to have finite a familiar sound to it, but a large majority of people, including many intelligent church goers are entirely ignorant of the origin of the society and the character and scope of its work. ORIGIN OF THE ORDER, On the back of the little cross which is the seal of the order is en grave "1886," which marks the year of its organization. Sixteen years ago, one winter day there met at the residence of Mrs Margaret Bottome a little band of earnest Christian women prompted by the feeling that they could best glorify God by benefitting their fellow creatures. Long and earnest was tlu debate on "What shall we do?" "How shall it be done?' "Where shall we begin?" perplexing questions answered one by one after -. , . i.rTM I fl iimeiy consideration. 1 ney oounu themselves together bv a triple cord, whose stands were Faith, Hope and Charity, and decided to organize into an order or sisterhood of service, hoping by this closer union to in crease their usefulness manifold." Such is the simple story of the origin of the order of Christian ser vice, called the King.s Daughters. From this little circ e of ten women who believed that much was to be gained by taking hold of hands has grown a socie.y numbering many thousand. Little by little around the primary "circle,' now known as the "Central Council," others have formed until the whole world is encircled. Across in merry England and sunny France, in central South America is worn the Maltese cross. Even in Calcutta a King's Daughter labors from day to day with 1,400 little Hindoo children AN UNSECTARIAN ORDER. The non-sectarian character of the order necessarily multiplies its op portunities and enlarges the sphere of its usefulness. It does not attempt to define any creed nor lay down any denominational tenets. Article 11 1 of the constitution specifically de clares that "any person may become a member of this order whose pur poses and lims are in accord with its object(that she will endeavor to de velop spiritual life and Chiistian activity in herself and others), and who holds herself responsible to the King, our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. The largest liberality is allowed in the choice of a field of labor; and it is not a Methodist, Presbyterian or Baptist heart that beats under the little silver cross, but one longing to do some good "in His name." FORMED INTO TENS AND CIRCLES. According to the original plan, the various societies as they were formed came to be known by the name ol "tens;" but as the work advanced the formation of bands of "tens" gave way to "circles" numbering many more, and sometimes less then ten. The membership fee in ten cents, to be paid annually to the treasurer of the order. The badge of member ship is the purple ribbon, or the Mal tese cross engraved with the letters I. H. N. bearing the date 1886 on the reverse side, but the wearing of the badge is not obligatory. Indeed there are daughters of the King, poor but precious in His eyes, who cannot afford to buy a cross. The various mottoes, "Look Up and Not Down" "Look Forward and Not Back" "Look Out and Not In," and since "to look upward is to trust, to look forward is to hope, and to look outward is to feel the woes of others, forgetting our own, and to !nd a hand is only love inaction," suggest the great idea of helpfulness which is the inspiration of King's daughters work. This "helpfulness" has been shown in as many ways as there are circles ot young and old, rich and poor, strong anil weak King's Daughters. Indeed the "shut ins," as the invalid sisters are known, help as much in their own way as the more active members. WORKS Ol' CHARITY. A "Helping Ten" adopts as its special work ministering to the sick, clothing the naked, feeding the hungry, perhaps giving a cup of cold water to a little one, for no service should be too great nor yet too small for a King's Daughter. The "Missionary Ten" visits the poor, sinys in the long hos pital ward or carries there a bunch of Children Cryfoi Pitcher's Castorla.. DR.KILMER'3 ir nr n Tl n I r Kidney Liver and Bladder Cure.

With the children fairs, flower missions, fresh air funds, and doll societies are the most popular, but some wear the cross for "nasty tem pers," or as another little girl express ed it : "This is to help me mind my mamma." Thtse are a few out of many ex amples ; but they serve to illustrate the mission of the King's Daughters to attain higher life and to do all things "in his name." Children Cry for Pitcher's Castorla.

From t ln Pittsburg Post. Governor Pattison has met every emergency of this disheartening busi ness. Neither life, person nor pro perty has suffered since the matter was subject to his action, while the disturbing elements have calmed down and are open to reason and authority. Go back to 1877 and compare the needless and reckless way disorganized and inefficient troops where thrown into the disturbed dis trict, with the killing and destruction ot property that followed compare these well-remembered events, we say, with the well-considered, well-ordered and self-possessed action of Governor Pattison in the movement now culmi nating with an efficiency that promises the best results without riot or blood shed, and we see the advantage of having a man like Pattison at the head of affairs. A Little Oirla Experience in a Lighthouse, Mr. and Mrs. Loren Trescott are keepers of the Gov. Lien '.house at Sand Beach, Mich, and are blessed with a daughter, four years old. Last winter she was taken down with Measles, followed with a dreadful Cough and turning into a Fever. Doc-tors at home and .it Detroit treated her, but in train, she grew worse rapidly, until she was a mere "hand ful of bones". Then she tried Dr. King's New Discovery and after the use of two and a half bottles, was completely cured. They say Dr. King's New Discovery is worth its weight in gold, yet you may get a trial bottle tree at C. A. Klcim's Drugstore. BUSINESS LOCALS. BBISTOR is a young stallion, two years old, owned by C.
