The Bowman Family Be-Vmon.
There assembled at tho old homestead in
Bowmanstown, this county, on Thursday,
the 30th day of June, A. D., 18S7, tho des
con jants of Juhn Bowman.a sturdy pioneer
who settled upon the banks of the Lehigh
river and established tho village, which now
bears his name. When John Bowman
first made his appearance upon the theatre
of events In this section tho surrounding
country was almost an unbroken wilder
ness, impassablo by man or teams. For
seme years he plowed his land and-worked
his sawmills, fully carrying out the divine
njunctlou "In the sweat of thy brow shalt
thou eat bread." The descendants of this
man arc many, all of whom are prominent
ly identified in tho busy world of enter
prise. The day was delightfully passed in
uilrth-maklug and general good feeling and
will long be remembered by all the partlcl
pants. A year agoat'tho first family re
union an organization was perfected which
will bo a pteaus of keeping together by
kindred ties this family, the descendants of
one of Carbon county's first settlers, The
Advocate extends congratulations and
best wishes for a continuation of the happy
family re-unions in tho years which arc

We hayc frequently been asked why
e did not pubbllsh In the "Labor World,"
articles furthering the Ideas of Henry
George and Dr. McGlynn. We do not be
lieve In attempting to further a cause which
we look upon as pernicious to the laboring
classes In Its effects. It Is our purposo to
matcrally better the condition of all classes
of men but In no way could our purpose
be more retarded than by expounding the
theories of an extremist who finds his
strength only In tha flouting masses of cities
and largo towns. No man will advecate'
the George land theories if he be the ownor
of his own homo. To adopt tho tax valuo "

Federal constitution would bo necessary.
Ground rent must necessarily be a tax, If
taken in any other way, the federal con
stitution demands that full compensation
be made therefore. If Individuals shall be
permitted to continue their exclusive oc
cupation on paying the whola ground rent
as tax, they cannot possibly be benefitted
unless a percentage of the surplus tax be
returned to thorn, this would be Impossible
and In direct opposition to the law. This
being the case we fall to see how any class
of people will be materially or financially
benefited by the proposed "ground rent"
form of government.

PURE UNFERME.NTED GRAPE JUICE!
n account of the superior excellence of this article I nmacnirt
prompted to bring it before the
by thu sick nnd the well when all other foods, solid or liquidt nro
loathed. The composition of Grape Jiice is nearer to that of
Milk than is that of any other orgauic fluid. It will build up tho.
nervous system, enrich tho blood and contribute, in every to,
the restoration of perfect health. Tho best element in tho food is,
that tho sick relish it, long for it, drink i't with pronounced gustov
and in short, demonstrato that it meets the sPeqifi,c want of the,
organism in debilitated conditions. Why, this excellence 1 a3ks,
one. Everybody knows what Grape Juice is; so docs everybody
know the Castor Ojl Vlant and many other I,Ierbs nnd lapt$ and;
Fruits, but where is there a more excellent purgativp than, Castor.
Oil which, in spite of the s.mall boy's verdict, is. s.uper-.excUclit
but this LiquiiLFood is pjcasant to, take as. well as. effective. Tha
article we have is prepared without boiling and without any,
clienteles or other substance, to, prevent fermentation. On t,hi
account it is entitled to tho first rnuk as i Liquid Food. Tt is a.b-.
solutely clean and pnret made (rom, '.'bagged"- grapes. The pro
cess of "baggingv grapes should be better known, than it is bo-,
cause by it soveral important results are attained. As soon asjha
fruit is set a manilla paper bag is slipped, over each well formed,
cluster and fastened above it with iron pins. Thus projected, the
fruit does not rot, is kepi (ree lrom the sppres nnd the iryfusipria
floating in the atmosphere, and ulso is protected from the cxore-i
meut of the thrip and other insects, which often, insfest vinayards,
roiideriug the fruit unclean, and the juice unfit for nsp. Th.p grapes,
so protected como to a greater perfection, a,nd when gathered are,
full bodied and have in perfection that rich purple bloom which is,
the crowning glory of this, noble fruit. It is from such Royal
Fruit that our Pare ITnfermeutcd Graje Juice is made, ol a deep,
rich garnet color verging on nurple a product of nature. Its.
t'boquet" is rich and fruity, reminding one of the "abundance of
autumn" and its flavor is cxccllenlusiinus. There are several
other brands on the market and though we hayc examined a, gopd
many ot them, we have found nono ol them lit to use. Some are
held from fermentation by saliailio acid, some 25 to 40 grains,
used to a gallon of juice ; some are heavily charged with sulphur
ous acidi and others develop a metallic taste in the mouth after
drinking, showing that the juice has been in contact with a me
tal surlaco Ol some eoit, anq is in
as unpleasant to tho taste. The
is specially prepared lor the Homeopathic Pnarmacy which, has;
