Will ''Curfew" Strike Here?
The "Curfew bell"' is becoming all
the rage. Many towns in the state
are taking up the question and want
an ordinance passed compelling all
young people to be off the streets at
a certain hour. Philipsburg residents
are now advocating the adoption of
the ancient edict.
The residence of Mrs. Clarissa
Peacock at the corner of Fifth and
Centre streets has been improved by
the removal of the fence and repairs.

and is not likely to have. This is as

William Chrisman Esq., whose
nama was announced last week for
Representative, will probably have a
clear field, as up to this time no one
else seems inclined to run for that
office on the north side. He has
faithfully served the party as county
chairman for several years and is
fairly entitled to this reward for his
labor.

The gentle spring time is here ac
cording to the almanac, bringing with
it warm showers, blue skies, fragrant
flowers and some other odors not so
fragrant from filthy streets, alleys and
back yards. Clean up in time or the
board of health will get after you.
Ho Money for Schools.
The school building at Phillipsburg
is too small and the board took a vote
to build an addition, but it resilted in
a tie and the school building will not
be built. The Ledger says the town
can pay $700 for the "Princess Bon
nie" company and keep a show in
town a whole week, but it can"t build
an addition to the school house be
cause it will cost money.
Man's View
Of Marriage.
"S MARRIAGE A
FAILURE?" "
It l not uncommon for men to bewail tna
fact that marriage so seldom means a real
companionship that man and wife are
separated by difference of taste, of mental
outlook, of general interest in life. It is
perhaps even more common to hear women
blamed for what is called breach of contract
in the marriage relation. If the wife be
delicate, run-down, nervous and irritable,
if her smile and her spirits have taken
flight, it worries her husband as well as
herself. Even worse symptoms may fol
low the woman suffers from sleeplessness
and fainting spells, her head is in, a whirl,
her back aches, and she has that awful
CTOwding-down feeling in the abdomen. It
depends on the woman whether she will
Sennit these troubles to continue day by
ay leading to a life of misery.
Thousands have been cured by taking Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and why not
you ? A healthy woman is always interest
ing ; she passes for a beauty because she is
happy, and her good spirits are contagious.
Good nature goes with health ; irritability
and peevishness with sickness.
Those who suffer from the derangements,
disorders and diseases of the sex should re
member that Dr. K.V. Pierce, chief consult
ing physician to the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has, for
over a quarter of a century, made the dis
eases of women a specialty. Send 10 cents
iin stamps) to him, at above address, for
lis medical book on "Women and Her
Diseases," (168 pages profusely illustrated
with wood cuts and colored plutes). It will
be mailed to you securely sealed in a plain
envelope. It contains photographs, names
and addresses of a vast number who have
been cured. You can correspond with
them and learn how they cured themselves
without having to consult a doctor.
