REMEDY FOR SMALL-PDX
A correspondent of the Pittston Gazette
writes as follows respecting a remedy for
this terrible scourge of the human race :
When / jEtiNEIL discovere:: cowpox in
England, the world of science hurled an
avalanche of fame upon his head, but
When the most scientific school -of medi
cine • in the world,that of Paris—pub
fished the: recipe which I herewith ap
pend, as a panacea for small-pox, it pass ,
ed unheeded. If countries would coin
pel their physicians to use this remedy
there would be no need of pest houses.
Those who value advice and experience
will use it for that terrible disease. It
bas beet; / ' used, to my knowledge, in bun
dreds of cases, and is as unfailing as fate,
conquering in every instance ; is barinless
when taken by a well person, - and r, will
event cure - the small-pox though the
pitiings are filling, It will also cUre.!scar
let fever. • .
• Here is the recipe as I have, used it and
exited small•pox, when learned physicians
said. the patient must die : --
"Sulphate of zinc one grain; fox glove
(digitalis) ones grain ; half teaspoonful of
sugar, mixed with two tablespoonfuls of
water. Take-,a spoonful every hoar. For .
a child, smaller doses, according to age.
Either disease' will disapper in twelve
hours."

Thanksgiving was appropriately oh
-served by our community. Union services
were held in the Presbyterian Church
where Rev. J.
Barton freneh preache: i d
one of his most able sermons to a large.
audience. His discourse.was one of the
best we ever beard upon such an occa
sion. , The points taken as, especially
worthy of thantrAgiving, were first, Chris
tian homes; second, schools . ; third,
prosperity dna growth of the chinch;
fourth, .rational prosperity; fifth, - business
integrity; and lastly that God rules and
.is reverenced more and more each year
'by the people. 'The discourse was rich In
thought and also contained: some ideati
upon matters not wally treated aslhey
should be. ' The speaker referred to the
bad character of some of the Sunday
papers that are sold'so generally and cau
tioned people lest they should polsonthe
minds of children by placing such low and .
sensational reading matter,in their hands.
He ditinet'denounce all such publications
as bad, but, thought . great care should be

MRS. JOHN STIHTON, OF RlDtaitillY.
Seldom is , a community so shocked 'as
Was the one in whfch Mrs. Stirton resided,
at the sad intalikence that she was dead.'
Stricken down in the full vigor of life and
that with only a few hours' sickness, not
giving time fol.:her, most intimate frhinds
to comfort and consolelier, wa3 a blow
the severity of which this community has
not experienced for years, if ever. Mrs.
Stirton filled a place in her home and in
the affections of the 'people that will be
difficult' to replace. Everybo* has lost
a friend, from herdevoted husband down
to the beggar asking for a erust'of bread
or a Abelter front - the cold aad storm. She
was kind and reverential to the„aged pil
grims tottering along life's . uneven path
way, as Well, as 'motherly and loving to
the children of a few summers she might
chance'; to meet on the bigrpay or gath
ered about her own; pleasant and quiet
home. In her home she was seen in her
greatness. Devotedl to' her husband as
fel women are, the home was the place
1 to adorn and to beautify, to comfort and
to • please her everloving companion.
Bu r t her home was nut alone for him; her
friends must share her ' hospitalitiesas
well ; andthese were numerous; for they
existed wherever she was known. Her,
life abotrZi all else was adorned with' a'
quiet Christian spirit. Sitting as she did
daily at her Master's feet, she bad sub.
mitted herself irito.His hands and was led
.by'His spirit and walked in His footsteps.
She was ono of the constituent members
of the Ridgbury Baptist Church, - baptized

TROY ITEMS
borne was a perfect model of neatness and
refinement, and met the highest apprecia
tion of all who were fortunate enough to
cross its threshold. it was also truly the
Prophet's home, and never will the writer
of this article forget the• kindness and
hospitality shown him when weary, and
'disheartened, tired and discouraged, he
found a true- oasis in this home of bus-
4
band and wre. And nothing could pos.
sibly show the very high position she held
in the community, and the very tender'
love friends and neighbors bad for her,
than the throngs of people who offered
their serviees during the hrief sickness,
and the very large gathering at her funer
al.• The funeral services took place on
Sunday afternoon from. the Ridgbury
Baptist' church, at two o'clock P. u. The
sermon'was preached by her pastor, P. S.
Everett, from the text, "Blessed are the
dead who die in the Lord." The church
was crowded in every part with a sympa
thizing people, who came to mourn the
death of Mrs. Stirt.nt and to console the
bereft husband. The singing was by the '
choir of the 'Wellsburg Baptist church,'
and was especially fine, consisting of Mrs.,
J. H. Wells as organist, Mrs. Helen Baily
and Miss Alice Herman soprano, Mr. Ste
phen Brown tenor, and C..E. Vaußuskirk
bass.. The church_was trimmed in a most
beautiful and becoming manner, indicat
ing the high position she occupied. Thus
one of Ridgbury's best and purest lights
has gone out, but not until everything
was done that could be done, and then all
that loving hearts and willing hearts could
do was done to scow respect for the dead
and comfort the lonely companion.

Minden) resides in
,this place. The fune
ral was .lield'at the church at ,Luther's
Mills, on Monday afternoon, where many
friends joined in offering the List sad rites.
The bereaVement of Mr. Gustin seems
peculiarly trying, as after many years of
patient toil he had lately built •and re
moved his- - fainily to a handsome new tesi
dence,convenieUtly arranged and tastefully
furnished, where ho had • hoped to enjoy
the long-denied rest his sySterii required
and which: his now thrifty circumstances
would hake admitted of.- But the death
angel. I -
has changed his joy to bitter pain.
He will miss the cheerful voice, the will
ing mind . &el. -, ready to aid and support
the companion of his youth, the devoted
mother of Iris children. He will have the
sympathy of many who will miss his wife
as a kind neighboi and a loving, Christian

It gives me. much pleasure to testify to the
merits of the DAVIS VERTICAL. FEED S'ENV
MACHINE. We have used them for the
past ten years iMallbranches of dressmaking, and
they have not only given perfect satisfaction hut
have proved themselves far tuimrior to any other
sewing machines in the • market for general pur
poses. j The machine we got of yob three ;years ago
last June bas been a used almost constantly since
that time, and the face-plate was removed a short
time since, for the first time, ti' (dean tits itiachlne.
tad I was surprised to see how little It was worn.
It has not, cost us one cent for repairs since we
