World -Thrica-a-Week Edition- The Most Widely Read Newspaper in America. Time has demonstrated that the 7irice-a- Week World stands alone in its class. Other papers have im itated its form but not its success. This is because it tells all the news all the time and tells it impartially, whether that news be political or otherwise. It is, in fact, almost a daily at the price of a weekly and you cannot afford to be without it. Republican and Democrat alike can read the Thrice a- Week Worla with absolute confidence in its truth. In addition to news, it publishes first-class serial stories and other features suited to the home and fireside. The Thrice-a-Week World's reg ular subscription price is only $1.00 per year and this pays for 156 pa pers. We offer- this unequalled newspaper and The Columbian together for $1.70. The regular subscription price of the two papers is $2.00. tf Legal advertisements on page 7. A. U.

The idea is certainly a novel one and the method shows off the goods to the best possible advantage, besides economizing room.

A large audience was present in the Opera House on Friday night to witness the Mock Trial. In the way of a money getter for the Y. M. C.

Newton of Massachusetts had much opportunity for rehearsal beforehand. The Colonel makes a business of it and of course was perfectly at home, but no more so than our local talent. Col. J G. Freeze delivered a very interesting address in the Parish House on Tuesday evening before the Brotherhood of St. Paul's, on the history of the Episcopal church.

While under the auspices of the Brother hood, these lectures are open for all persons, men and women, who may desire to attend. There is no ad mission fee and everybody is wel come. . - The "swelledhead" is a popular way of expressing a common and verv frequent ailment. There are victims of it in every locality, Bloomsburg not excepted. It arises from different sources, but the real foundation is a lack of sense Money, a very little of it developes it in some people, a few good clothes give it to others, a little office, if there is any authority connected with it at all, produces the ailment while others get it by having a bet ter job than his associates. The truth is, no sensible person ever gets the "swelled head," and the person who imagines that he is the whole show from success of any kind is weak in the intellectual calibre. Y. M- 0- A- NOTES- The men of Bloomsburg will have the rare privilege of hearing Bishop Stanford, of Chicago, next Sunday at the Men s Meeting. The Bishop is one of the strongest pulpit orators of our day. . He should be greeted with a large audience. Let us crowd the build ing to its utmost capacity.

Notice to Liquor Sellers. On January 20th Judge Little filed the following: "Before licenses are granted the present session, we have a request to make of all licensees to vend intoxi cating liquors, and that is, that they abstain from selling or furnishing, either directly or indirectly, to persons who have become so addicted to the use of intoxicants that it has become a disease with them, and who have tried to extricate themselves from the power of the disease by taking what is called the Keeley Cure. There should be no sales of intoxicating liquors to any such. It will be re garded hereafter as good leason, upon petition presented to this Court, for a rule to issue to show cause why the license of the person so selling or furnishing should not be revoked. When a licensee has received notice from the wife or child, or any person authorized under the Act of Assembly to give notice, not to sell to husband or father or member of the family any intoxicating drink, and such notice afterward is followed up by another notice withdrawing the prohibition of the former notice, the second notice should have no effect whatever upon you. The first notice is the notice to be obeyed, and the Court will not re gard the second notice as of any validity, or as giving you any authori zation whatever to sell to such person concerning whom the notice has been given." .
