The protracted meetings still continue with unabated interest, but are likely to close during the coming week as the pastor. ltev. J. S. Nowbart, will leave for confer ence. At no time in the history of the church In this town have the audiences been so large and the seekers after faith so numerous as daring the vast month.

It Is talked of that John Arncr, of Now Mahoning, is likely to go Into the nianu fieuirlnir business at Allentown.

The Assessor of Lehigh ton has reported four hundred and forty-six persons, resi dents of the borough, as capable, of military duty. And the Weatherly Ilerali says that 1b the whole "campoodle only one man Isn't afraid of a bullet or a shot from the mouth of a cannon." It strikes us painfully that our brother pencil-shover handles the truth very carelessly. If you haye sale bills printed at this olTflcs, you will not only save 10 to 20 vet cent, on the cost of the same, but also se cure a notice of the time and place of sale in our "Public Sale Register."

A simple, and the proper method is to make suds of hot water and Ivory Soap, and allow to cool till lukewarm. This solution, while very effective, is perfectly harmless. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many whito soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the ' Ivory' u they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory " Soap and insist upon getting it. Copyright 1880 by Procter t tlambls. IUILTS ! QUILTS ! QUILTS !
