This is worth repeating and remembering
Coal tar lacks many of tho qualities which
characterize furls Green, tho now so unt ver

anil familiar use are great, ami with more
use and a growing carelessness tho result
will bo every year worse, probably, until th
use of it will have to bo mado a matter

stop this sort of tiling is to remember that
coal tar water will kill tho potato bugs, and
it is not an engine of death lo the human

Tho Bethlehem correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Ledger, writing under the dato of
tho Dili inst., says: Tho Lehigh Valley
Railroad officials hero aro not a littlo sur
prised at the persistence displayed by some
of tho Philadelphia papers in building tho
new line from that city to Bethlehem, in
competition to the P. Sc R. leased road. Mr,
Sayro says the easiest thing to do in the
world is to build a railroad on paper, and in
newspaper. Acting President Hartshorno
on Mouday asked Mr. Sayre, Superintend
ent and Engineerof tho Lehigh Valley Rail
road home todiue. En routo Mr. Hartshorno
pointed out to Mr. Sayro tho line tho Tcnii
sylvania Railroad Company proposes to build
tap Gcrmantown and Chestnut Hill.
This is all the foundation the papersof Tues
day evening and this morning had for the
lengthy accounts in reference to tho new
line. No engineers havo been placed on
tho route, and the Lehigh Valley directors
at their meeting Tuesday, neither discussed
nor voted on the subject. Tho lino the
Pennsylvania Company ore now surveying
lias become necessary to keep their sharo of
tho travel from thoso sections, and has no
meaning beyond that, at least not so far as
tho Lehigh Valley Company is concerned,
