What Rev. A. VsnCamp snys of
Dr. Willits, "He Is known allover the
United States from California to Maine.
He is a fine speaker. At Chautauqua,
last season, his lecture on "Sunshine"
won the applause of the thousands
who attended that popular resort set k
'nK opportunity for recreation and
pleasure.
Improve the opportunity, go and
hear him."
At a regular Meeting of the Tem
perance Union in the M. 15. Church,
tin Puturdny evening, Major Scott
addressed a large and attentive audi
nice composed largely of his fii rids.
When the invitation was given by the

couragement to Major Scott that ull
those who had taken the plediroshould
rise to their feet, nearly the entire
audience arose.
A new disease called "scurvy leg."'
which attacks poultry. Is described by
nn exchange as follows: "It is caused
by a gathering of Infinitesimal paras
ites which comes impreeeptilily at list,
111 the crevices between the edges of
the legs scales, and rapidly increase,
piling upon themselves and apparently
funning grayish-white warts or rought
bunches. There are millions of them
in one hunch. Kerosene oil will des
tmy them and remove the bunches.
Lhpior dealers can not use too much
precaution to whom they sell. They
are oftentimes deceived into selling
liquor to minors 011 the representation
of the youmj men that they are of age.
These young men may not know it.
hut at the lastsessiou of the Legislature
t here was an act passed making it a
misdemeanor, punisl'iablc hy a tine or
imprisonment, for any person under
age attempting to ouy liquor by falsely
representing that they are twenty-one
years old.
William II. Vanderl.ilt says th t
he cannot afford to gamble, smoke r
drink liquor; that such hahits would
unfit him for business, and prevent
his using mind and body In pursuits
that demand hisattentioii. If it Is to
expensive for him with his millions,
should not young men, depending upon
their hands and brains, ignore such
evil habits and practices? There are
young men in Ridgway who should
, consider that these hahits were too ex
pensive, and, like Vandcibilt, refuse
to cultivate them.
For diphtheria tlie following re
Cclpe is furnished from an excellent
source: "A teaspoouful of flour of
sulphur stired in a wine glass of water,
to be used us a gargle. Within ten
minutes, it is said, the patient will be
relieved. Should tho fungus have
grown so that gurgling is precluded,
blow dry sulphur down with a quill or
any small tube. The fungus will con
tract so that the patient can gurgle
Another way is to put the sulphuron
live coals and let thepatient inhale the
fumes. It will kill the fungus. This
is recommended for colds and asthma,
also. Lcwinburg Journal.

Tobacco.
A HA KA III,): CUT FKO.M A CA 1.1
KOHXIA HAI'KK.
Then shall the kingdom of Satiu be
likened to a gruln of tobacco seed;
which, though exceedingly small, be
ing cast into the ground grew, and be
came a great plant, and spread it
leaves rank and hroud, so that, huge
and vile worms formed a habitation
thereon. And it came to puss, iu the
course of time, that the son of man
looked upon it, and thought it beauti
ful to hiok upon, and much to be des
ired to make luds look big and
manly. So they put forth their hands
and did chew thereof. And some it
made sick, and others to vomit most
tilthily. And if father came to pass
that those who chewed it became
weak and unmanly, and said we are
enslaved, and can't cease from chew
ing It. And the mouths of all that
were enslaved, became foul; and they
were seized with a violent spitting;
and tbey did spit, even in ladies par
lors, and in the house of the Lord of
Hosts. And the Saints of the most
High were greutly plagued thereby.
And In the course of time it came also
to pass that others snuffed it; and
they were taken suddenly with fits,
and they did sneeze with a great and
mighty sneeze, insomuch that their
eyes filled with tears, aud they did
look exceedingly silly. And jetotbers
cunningly wrought the leaves thereof
into rolls, and did set tire to one end
thereof, and did suck vehemently at
the other end thereof, aud did look
very grave and calf-like; aud the
smoke of their tormetit ascended
forever aud forever. And the culti
vation thereof became a great and
mighty business in the earth; and the
merchantmen wuxed rich by the com
merce thereof and it came to pass that
the taint of the Most High defiled
themselves therewith; even tlie poor
who could neither buy shoes, nor bread,
nor books for their little ones, spent
their money for It. And the Lord was
greatly displeased therewith, and said;
Wherefore thismust; and why do these
little ones lack for bread and shoes
aud books. Turn now your fields into
corn and wheat; and put this evil
thing far from you; and separate, and
defile uot yourselves auy more; and
I will blew you and cause my face
to shine oh you."

Eldred' Sensation.
A FAMILY BOW PARENTS STEALING
THEIR OWN CHILDREN.
Eld red, Feb. 11. The Eagle of to
night publishes the following: Con
siderable excitement Was occasioned on
Main Street, Wednesday evenlug, by
a man running down town with a little
boy In lils arms, aud close behind him
a big crowd followed, bended by a
woman who kept up the cry, "He has
stole my child!" Upoh investigation
of the case It was found that the parties
Interested were Mr. and Mrs P.
Algulre. It will be remembered that
about a year ago Algulre left Eldred
very suddenly under a dark cloud, aud
was subsequently brought back by the
Dodd Bros, for whom he had worked.
After settling the difficulty, he took
his boy to Dunkirk, at which place the
lad was left with its grandmother,
Mrs. Algulre The Junior Mrs. A.
then went west to Fredona, where Bhe
found work, and was in the habit of
going ouce a week to see her offspring.
About one week ago she went to
Dunkirk aud getting possession of the
child at once set out for Eldred, her
parents residing In this place.
Algulre returned some time ago and
lias been employed by the Messrs.
Dodd until Tuesday morning last,
when lie left for Dunkirk to see the
boy, who, unknown to him, had been
spirited away and was in Eldred with
his mother. On arriving at the lake
city, and learning that the child was
not there, the father instituted adilll
geut search, whicn brought him to
Eldred, on the 6:14 express. He pro
ceeded at once to the Davidson block,
iu tlie basement of which Mrs. A's.
parents reside, and taking his boy In
his fatherly arms, starting down
street, where we first saw him. A
carriage was in walling, and it was
only the work of a moment for the
father and son to get comfortably
seateil and leave the town at a rapid
pace, going toward the State Line.
The Hlghett IS ridge in thclVorld.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Record, in referring to this immense
structure, say: "The Kinzua creek
flows at the bottom of a ravine between
Bradford and Alton, Pa., over three
hundred feet deep and 2,50 feet wide.
This chasm has for years prevented a
ra'.lroad connection between that region
aud Pittsburg. The Erie railroad Is
now spanning the ravine witli a bridge,
to make long-desired connection by ex
tending its Bradford branch to John
sonburg, Pa., which will be tho highest
railroad bridge in the world 303 feet.
This is 6') feet higher than the Niagara
suspension bridge, 1T0 feet higher than
the great bridge across the Ohio at
Cincinnati, 189 feet above high bridge,
New York. 170 feet higher than Enst
river bridge over the Genesee river.
The Klnzuu structure will consume
0,tVi0,0(H) pounds of iron. It will re
quire 80,000 yards of masonry. The
cost will be over $500,000. The
Bradford branch will connect with the
Low tirade division of tlie Allegheny
Valley railroad, mid make a short
through route between New York and
rittsburg.''
The Oil Fire Loss.

haki:i:i,s hkstkoykd.
Bradford, Pa. February 13. The
feelings of danger from the three burn
ing tanks at Oleau were relieved at 1
o'clock to day. The total amount of oil
destroyed was 105,000 barrels involving
u pecuniary loss of l 15,000. Tlie loss
on the oil will be borne by a general
average assessment on all persons hav
ing the use of the United pipe lines.
The overflows from which the greatest
danger was apprehended occurred at 3
o'clock this morning, but sufficient of
the oil had been drawn off by a can
non bombardment of the burning
tanks so that the overflow did not puss
over theditches and trendies prepared
during the night. A force of three
hundred men was on the ground during
the night and day. The experiment
by the chemical tire extinguisher on
the burning oil could not be made, be
cause of the engines being disabled be
fore the work commenced. The three
tanks are still burning, but the danger
is passed.

Washington, - February 10. The
house committee on banking aud cur
rency to day took up for consideration
the bill Introduced in the house by
Representative .Marsh, of Illinois,
authorizing the taxation by the slates
of the legal tender notes of the United
States. The bill provides "that the
treasury notes of tlie United States,
known as tlie legal tender notes, shall
be liable to state taxation on an equal
ity with good and silver coin during
the time they continue to be redeem
able in coin by the treasury, and no
longer." Mr. Marsh appearsed before
tliecommitteeand presented an exhaus
tive argument in support of the
measure. He thoughtTon general priuic
pies that all property should be liable to
state taxation Several members of
the committee say it Is probable that
the measure will be modified to a
certain extent before It Is reported to
the house.
