"On the first Tuesday of May next,
conventions of school directors will as
semble at the county seats of the several
counties of this Comsat wealth for the
porpese of electing Coanty Snperin
tendenta of Common Schools, for the
term of three years, commencing on the
first Monday in June. At the same time
there will be held, if the respective
boards of directors so decide, is all cities
and boronghs possessing 7,000 inhabi
tants, special elections for the election of
City and Boroagh Superintendents of
Schools for the same length of term as
that for which County Superintendents
are to be elected.
"There are now serving in the State
81 Comity, City and Borongh Superin
tendents, to be increased probably at the
forthcoming election 85 more. The impor
tance of the interests intrusted to these
officers can scarcely be over-estimated.
Pennsylvania will have 1,000,000 chil
dren to educate in her public schools dur
ing the next three years, and her annual
expenditures fur school purposes will
most likely average full $10,000,000.
Whether these children shall be well
taught aud trained or otherwise ; whether
this vast sum of money shall be judi
ciously or injudiciously expended will de
pend very much upon the men about to
be chosen to fill the office of Superinten
dent, for it will be admitted by all who
reflect upon the subject that as the Super
intendents so the teacheis, as the teachers
so the schools, and as the schools so in a
good measure the social and political con"
dition of the people.
''Pennsylvania has within the last few
years placed herself proudly alongside of
the foremost educational States. She is
taxing herself for educational purposes
as heavily aa any other State of the
Union She is pom ing out her money for
the edncation of her children most gen
erously, and it is the high duty of all
who have to do with the official manage
ment of schools to see that every dollar
thus contributed brings back the greatest
possible return of that for which it is
given. Our people are willing to pay
for the best schools, and we must have
them. Let none but men fully qualified
be placed in the office of Superintendent,
and the rest is guaranteed."

P. Hall & Co., Gentlemen, Please send
me one dozen bottles of yonr Sicilian
Hair Renewer. Onr 'bald and gray do
not want to be oat. My mother is a liv
ing recommendation of the results from
the nse of the Renewer. Being almost
seventy years old, and having worn a
wig over thirty years, it seems a miracle
to those who have known her so long so
bald, and what little hair she had being
perfectly white ; now her wig thrown
aside, her hair grown oat, and a smooth
glossy brown, as in girlhood. Hoping
you may long continue to pour blessings
on the heads of the afflicted, I remain
yours truly."
Such evidence, with tbe indorsement of
the great chemist of New England, Dr.
A. A. Hayes and S. Danna Hayes,

TIIK GREAT DISCOVERT."
KunkcFs Bitter Wine of Iron.
For the cure of weak stomach, general de
bility, indigestion, disease of Ine nervous
system, constipation, acidity of the stomach,
and all cases requiring a tonic.
The wine includes tbe most agreeable and
efficient Salt of Iron we possess ; Citrate of
Magnetic Oxide, combined with the most en
ergetic of vegetable tonics Yellow Peruvian
Bark-
The effect in many eases of debility, loss
ef appetite, and general prostration, of aa
efficient salt of Iron, combined with our val
uable Nerve, is most happy.. It augmeats
the appetite, raises the pulse, takes off mus
cular flabbiness, removes the pallor of de
bility, and gives a florid vigor to the counte
nance. Do yoo want something to strengthen you?
Do you want a good appetite ?
Do you want to build up your constitution ?
Do you want to feel well ?
Do you want to get rid of nervousness ?
Do you want energy ?
Do you want to sleep well ?
Do you want brisk and vigerous feelings ?
" If yon do, try Kunkel's Wine of Iron.
This truly valuable Tonic has been so thor
oughly tested by all classes of the community
that it is now deemed indispensable as a
Tonie medieine. It costs but little, purifies
tbe blood and gives tone to tbe stomach, reno
vates the system and prolongs life.
I now only ask a trial of this valuable
Tonic.
Price $1 per bottle. E. F. Eunkel, Sole
proprietor, N. E corner of Tenth and Chest
nut streets, Philadelphia.
Ask for Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron and
take no other. If your Druggist has it not,
send $1 to my address, and the medicine,
with advice free, will eome by next express
