AS A CLEANSER of the blood, nothing sweeps as clean a Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. It purifies the blood as well as en riches it. The truth is, an em ulsion of Cod liver oil is good for building un fat no doubt about it. But ugh ! a weak stomach loathes it. Fortunately, there's a tissue builder, that's even better for making healthy flesh. Pleasant in taste effect . ive in result. That's tho "Dis covery." It goes to work in tho right way, by regulating, cleansing, and repairing all the organs of the rjoay. When the germs of disease are round about us we do not all get them. Why? Some of us are in too good a condition. The germs of Consumntion. Grinne. ' Malaria. and all the infectious diseases, pass you by if you aro strong to resist 1 X n weir attack. Itenaer yourself germ proofs by putting your blood and liver in a healthy state. In all blood-taints and diseases, if the "Discovery" fails to benefit or eure, your money is returned. No other medicine of its kind can bo sold so. Bishop Hainan of the minority fac tion of the Evangelical church is ex' pectcd to preach here next Monday evening. , Tho youn.'r folks are taking a.lvant ace of the snow and the inclined planes made by the hills, to their hearts content in coasting.

Mr. John Emery Eves, of Millville, is teaching singing school at this place, and he also has quite a large class at Divide.

Mr. Gideon Shultz, the teacher at this place being to Bloom last week the school was closed except on Mon day. There has been right good sleigh ing here for the past week, so that a great deal of hauling has been done to and from Benton on the sleds. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.

Smith, of Towanda, Pa., whose constitution was completely broken down, Is cured by Ayer'a Sarsaparilla. He writes: " For eight years, I was, most of the time, a great sufferer from constipa tion, kidney trouble, and Indiges tion, bo tli at my roiistltutlon deemed to 1m completely broken down. I wa Induced to try Ayer' Sarsaparilla, and took nenrly seven bottles, with such excellent results thnt my Rtomnch, bowels, and kidneys are In perfoct con dition, and, In nil their functions, aa regular as clock-work. At the time I began taking Ayer'a Sarsnparilla, my weight was only 129 pounds j I now can brag of 159 pounds, and was never in so good health. If you could see mo be fore and after using, you would want mo for a traveling advertisement. I believe this preparation of Sarsaparilla to be the best In tho market to-day."

Shamokin has an ordinance requir ing physicians to report alt cases of contagious diseases to the board of health. The ordinance has been dis regarded, and recently Dr. D. S. Hal lonback, county treasurer elect, has been sued for failing to report a case of scarlet fever. This may seem hard upon the physician, but it is often times necessary to take extreme meas ures to have an ordinance enforced. An epidemic can only be averted by early precaution. Bloomsburg has a similar ordinance imposing a fine of twenty-five dollars for the failure of a physician to report any case of con tagion. Some of our physicians are prompt in making their report to the board ot health ; others are a little negligent, and if the ordinance were enforced in Bloomsburg they might be obliged to pay the fine imposed. The last day for filing applications for liquor license is December 23. Have Tour Deeds Eecorded. There has always been ignorant carelessness in having deeds recorded as evidence that a property has changed hands, by which negligence much im position has been practiced by former owners, who secured credit on the faith that they still had an interest in such real estate. This practice was often as much the result of mean par simony, on the part of purchasers of property, who sought thereby to evade the immediate payment of the fees for recording these deeds, hoping in the meantime to sell the property and thus escape that expense altogether. Under an act of the legislature of 1893, deeds after being signed and witnessed not recorded in ninety days thereafter are considered fraudulent and void against any subsequent pur chaser or mortgages. The terms of this law not being generally under stood are, as is usually the case with acts of the legislature of this class, tne cause of much trouble. The chances are that much harassing litigation may grow out of it until the people are cor rectly informed ot its requirements. The true course now should be to have a deed recorded as soon as it is signed and witnessed. Cambridge teacher's Bibles at Hess Bros.

Judge Sadler of Cumberland county thus address-d the constables in ref erence to carrying concealed weapons: 'You constables can do nothing better than arresting men and young men who carry loaded pistols in their pockets ready to whip out on the slightest provocation and perhaps shoot nerfectlv innocent people. A man has no constitutional or moral richt to carry concealed deadly weap ons on all occasions: and I say to you, whether or not I be criticised, that if you do your duty in arresting boys and men carrying revolvers we will see that no costs are imposed upon you."

A very high authority speaking of small pox cases says : "I am willing to stake my reputation as a public man if the worst cases of small pox cannot be cured in three days simply by cream of tartar. I his is the sure cure and never failing remedy : One ounce of cream of tartar dissolved in a pint of boiling water, to be drank when cold, at Intervals. It can be taken at any time and is a preventa tive as well as a curative. It is known to have cured 100,000 cases without a failure. I have myself restored hun dreds by this means. It never leaves a mark, never causes blindness and prevents tedious lingering." It's all the same, a slicht cold, con gested lungs or severe cough. One Minute uougn uure Danishes tnem. W. S.
