The old year was triumphantly uMieted out and has departed with ben ediction?, for Its career has been mark ed with better suceesn than the few years preceding, and now wo begin 1S98 with u. beautiful and spotless man tle and thankful hearts for the promise of a successful future. Hut this suc ciss can only be achieved by the citi zens working In harmony and patroniz ing home merchants. The New Year promises is electric lights, which means higher taxes, but this dltllculty can be nllevlated by making the town a deslr nble plac-p to nettle and thus build up the unsettled portions. Mrs. Catelln, of London, the well known levlvallst, will begin revival services In the Primitive Methodist church tomorrow morning. Devotions will bo held every evening during her stay In Avocn. Miss Lizzie Murphy will enter on Monday as a student In St. Cecelia's academy. A. J.

A reception was ten dered the immediate relatives of the wedded couple at the home of the bride's parents, after which Mr. and Mrs. Fadden left for Newport News, where they will reside.

Two or moro pairs of wings, arranged tandem fashion, are found to be better than a single pair a result fully in accordance with the conclusions formed by other observers. Major Moore considers It quite possible to construct a machine of this type capablo of raising a man. PROF. COLES FOR JANUARY. The New Year, 1S9S. opens up with bright and promising prospects for the United States of America. She will be free from .the shadow of the sun's eclipse, and from the evil Influence of evil planets, which will make America the most prosperous nation on the earth; while the old country will bo terribly nllllcted 'by wars, pestilence, famine, earthquakes, tidal waves, dreadful massacres, unprecedented changes in the forms of government and assassination of rulers. The finan cial, social and political influencing planets will all bo In position this year to cast their greatest influence on America, and her Industries: therefore let us nil be up and doing the Jump Into tho river of success while It is at High Flood. While the old country Is being afflicted with pestilence, etc., America will be terribly storm beaten by the storm elements. THE STORMS AND SIGNS. Tho sea of gaseous matter no-v pass ing over the face of the sun has so In creased in bulk during the past four weeks that It can now be seen through a smoked glass with the naked eye. It throws the electric currents out of their natural channel and causes the mag netic currents to run southward: and If they nre suddenly reversed an awful eyclone will sweep over land and sea and produce tldai waves or earth quakes. Should these currents reverse, suddenly, any time during this month, or the month of February, our own state, which has been so favorably exempt from the storm elements dur ing the past year, will 'be right In the storm path. Watch out for tho elements and be prepared for storms, as no man can tell what a day will bring forth so long us these huge sum spots nre pass ing between us and the sun. These sun spots will harm us In no other way but by the storms that they produce. A full account and cause of these sun spots will be sent to any address for postage. THE ECLIPSES. There will be two eclipses during the present month. The first, a partial eclipse of the moon, on tho 7th visible In most parts of the globe. It will be gin at C.B7 p. m. and end nt 8.27 in the Eastern States. The second, a total eclipse of the sun on the 22d, not visible in America. It will be seen In most parts of the old country, and Its dark path will be near the equator through Africa, India and China; this will be the means of sending thousands of Chinamen to America, and unless Americans can lead and heed the signs In the eclipse and take action at once, America will have a plague of China men before the 20th century dawns. America will be the "Klondike" of the whole woild. AVntch the awful afflic tions that will fnll upon China, India and Africa during the year 189S. EPIDEMICS. The new and fatal epidemic that we predicted last month, would fall upon swine and cattle Is now raging in many parts of this country. The planets are now In a position to produce fevers, small-pox and skin diseases. The whole atmosphere seems to be tilled with small and hideous appearing microbes. What their mission Is we do not know, but we snould pity the man or beast upon whom they make an attack. Those tormenting microbes (Flcsh Eaters) that made their appearance last win ter In many sections of the country and caused so much suffering will ap pear again this month. They group into companies, and staking out their claims on human bodies, they at once begin to dig Into the flesh, and soon cause i volcanic flesh eruption, similar to a boll. Miners should be on their guard and watch for "cave-ins" this month, as the electric and magnetic currents are aw fully unbalanced on account of the sun's rays being thrown out of their natural channel by huge "sun spots." Just notice the Increase of crimes this month. During the middle and tho latter part of the month watch out for hard storms, floods, high gales and blizzards. Our "Sign Planting" Instructions begin again next month. Professor C. Coles. Editor Storms and Signs. Kingston, Pa.; U. S. A., Dec. 23, 1897. New Virl Live stuck. New York. Doc. 31.

Today s market for stocks was very dull and i ct changes for tho most part are trivial and .ire divided amongst gains and losses, without much semblance of consistency or order.
