But, ah, yes ! but men must needs continue to adorn their beauti fully formed lower extremities with pan taloons so tight that to sit down means to endanger tho collusiveness of their several constituent parts. Now, the kind Lewin, proprietor of the Philadelphia Branch, whose clothing has been tendered compli ment after compliment, sells will not rip. Try a pair Wilson, McFarlane & Co., call atten tion to the only reliable lteady Mixed Paint in tho market.

The guarantee is not only good for replacing tho paint but it will be put on if it should crack or peel within tho time specified. It will be to your interest to call and see Wilson, Mc- Farlane Si Co., before purchasing either white lead or any other Beady Mixed Paint. —Wedotire on behalf of Messrs. 8. S: A.

The meeting was called to perfect some of the details of the organization, which being completed, now puts our Association in excellent working order. A committee, com|oscd of Dr. T. H. Hayes, chairman, Prof. John Hamilton and D. 8. Keller, Esq , was appointed, whose duly it will be to superintend the establishment of branch es in every borough and township in the county, and, we are informed, they mean to give the matter their personal attention, commencing at onco to fulfill the obliga tions imposed upon them, and will not be satisfied until every voting district is the seat of a healthy, united, interested branch of the County Association. As wo understand it, and we have every reason to vouch for the absolute truth of the assertion, a strenuous effort will be made to exclude entirely all political and denominational features. The success of the movement can only beacerlainty with the unanimous and combined asaistance of all temperance workers, and the impor tance of the total abolition of the liquor traffic Is of sufficient interest to the fathers, mothers, wives and property owners of our county to command the hearty support of all. On behalf of the committee, and its work, we recommend that they be received with open arms, and their action supple mented by tho unstinted help of all who desire to free car people from the various evils arising out of the Indiscriminate tale of intoxicating drinks. We shall be pleased to publish reports, giving neress of officers, place of meeting, number of members, etc., of all branch associations, organised, in order to, in this way, keap the public posted. —The eighteenth annual convention of the Fenna, Mute 8. 8.
