At the Burgettstown fair " yeater
day we noticed a novel, 'newly in
vented patent coal stove, from the well
known and extensive foundry of Messrs.
Joseph H. Greer dr Bro., Bridgewater,
(Rochester,) Pa.. excited much commer.t
among the visitors. It is circular in
shape, occupying but little room, and is
supplied with seven plates. The heat is
regulated by a damper, so that it can in
an instant be transferred either to the
plates or thrown to the oven in any de
sired intensity—advantages which will
be duly appreciated by housekeep
ers. The oven is suppled with a
movable rack which can be readily
changed into any desired position. The
stove is supplied with registers, and
throughout is as pretty a piece of work
manship as we have ever seen.'all the
parts being smoothly finished and put
together in a neat fitting manner. It sells
for from twenty-five to twenty-nine dol
lars including outfit. There are many
special merits in this stove which must
combine to make it a great favorite when
once known. We hear that the Messrs.
Greer propose to manufacture them
largely for sale, and any of our friends
, contemplating purchasing a stove should
not fail to award them proper attention
and corusideration.'

The cheapness, durability and high lin
ish-of-the'Keystone ware is its greatest
recommendation. and ghat'. which has
made It heretofore so popular. House
keepers in need of anything in this line
cannot do better than by nurchasing from

The Daly of the Press. -
There have beezi few greater benefao
,
tors of trunakind than the maz who Vain
the first light house.- What a source of
comfort it his been to the toilers of the
sea—like a good conecience forever giv
ing warning of the rocks and breakers,
and pointing always to the smooth
waterearid the safe harbors. , The press
is,,or'should be, the light house of soci
ety,
sed not only should never cease to
warebf errors, but should constantly
point the way which is for the 'pub
lic advantage. To a certain extent- it
does—that is in all matters of trade and
commerce—where men's pockets are
concerned. No trouble is too great, no
pains are spared, that the Merchant may
have the latest information that may
enable him to make a good bargain. To
this end the land is covered with the tel
egraph wires, and all our papers bristle
with long columns of figures,' the pro
duct el long and patient toil.
But how is it in the more important
concern of the physical well-being of
society? From the reticence of the press
on this subject one would suppose it was
a minor matter. No word of warning
is uttered while Quacks unnumbered
ply their dabgeroue arts—no suggestion
is offered as to where the afflicted may
safely go that they may be healed. Now
we do not feel that we can discharge our
duty faithfully to the public and keep si
lent; we therefore mean from time to
time to caution the public from dangers
threatening them, and likewise to com
mend to them practitioners upon whom
them they may depend. At the present
time we mean to warn the public against
Dental Quacks—for they are numerous,
and far from being harmless. Go to none
of them under any circumstances. Do
not be enticed by promises of cheapness,
or misled by the customary clan-trap.
Such affairs are too important to incur
any risk. Take our advice and go to Dr.
G. W. Spencer, of 254 Penn street, and
you can trust him implicitly; he is mas
ter of his profession.
Defied k4m.
Two eminent members of the bar
quarreled the other day, and from
words came to blows. The stronger of
the two, a powerful man—at the
,
fists—knocked his adversary down twice,
exclaiming with vehemence, "You
scoundrel and villain I'll make you
behave yourself like a gentlemen," to
this the other, unconquerable and un
dismayed, as indignantly replied; "You
can't do it, no sir. I defy you. I defy
von." Mr. Joseph Leiber N 0.104 Wood
street the popular and enterprising trunk
manufacturer, has on hand at his estab
lishment one the largest and finest
assortment of goods in his line ever seen
in Pittsburgh, and with which, in price,
style or quality, he defies competition.
Mr. Lieber is a practical manufacturer,
and hence his great success. Parties in
need of trunks, valises, traveling
satchels, or anything of that character,
should call at once, at No. 104 Wood
street. They cannot get suited better
anywhere in the city for material while
the prices are absolutely below anything
conceivable by those who have heretofore
been paying exorbitant rates..
Business Sults.
Mr. W. Hespenheid, merchant tailor,
No. 60 Sixth street, is now making up
suits for business men from materials
just received from the East, and of new
and beautiful patterns. Every garment
manufactured at this establishment is
warranted in quality, exactly as repre
sented, so that customers may rely upon.
receiving a full equivalent for thbir
money. Another special feature of Mr.
Hespentield's work consists in the fact
that no article is sent away from his care
unless it tits to the perfect satisfaction of
the purchaser. None but the best hands
are employed, whether in the cutting
or making up of the clothing, and for
'this reason Mr. Hespenheid's house has
an enviable reputation for the satisfac
tion which is always rendered to its pa
trons. Just now special attention is
called to these business suits, adapted
for fall and winterear, wear, and which have
become very popular. ' Whether in ma
terial, price or style, they cannot be ex
celled.

An Excellent Idea.
If you wish to ask a favor of a man
never do so.unless you are , certain he is
not at the time in a condition of hunger,
To make sure of this a good plan would
be to take him to the Continental. Fifth
avenue, next door below the rostoffice,
and allow him to satiate his appetite on
the appetising fare for which the institu
tion is so famous, and after that, _ten
chances to one, you wilt have no diffi
culty in getting him to-grant the favor
asked, if it be in his power. The exper
iment is well worth a trial by those in

Marvin's Crackers have no superior in

their manufacture, and as a consequence,
the best article, is. produced. They
should be on hand in every house, as no
Labligs complete without such articles.
Mr. John Megraw has on hand at his
tobacco establishment, No. 45 Hand
street, one of the largest and finest as-.
sortments of goods in that line ever
brought to the city, to which he Invites
the attention of purchasers, wholesale
and retail. The longstanding and busi
ness reputation of this house is a gliaraii
tee that every article on hand la of the
seated.arac, and all that it is repro.
Wholesale purchasers will Lind
it of special advantage to deal with this
house.
The assortment comprises every
thing in the line of tobacco, cigars and
snuff, together with a selected stock of
pipes, pouches,meerschaums and
smoker's appara tus, all of which is of
fered at prices much below the usual
cost. Mr. Megraw being an extensive
purchaser from first hands, and con
stantly receiving new goods, is enabled
to offer special inducements to his pa
trons.
In the retail trade, also. he is specially
prepared. His stock in this direction has
been carefully selected, and will be found
full and complete. In the line of cigars,
gentlemen will find a rare assortment for
evening parties or clubs. One particu
larly line lot of Plantation brand sell as
high as 11120'per thousand, but these are
an exception, the general prices being
much more favorable. For integrity in
transaction, excellence and completeness

To.day a superb dinner will be placed
on the board at the Continental, next
door below the Postalice. Fifth avenue.
Those who have heretofore tested the
bility of Mr. Holtzheimer as a caterer
to the public tastes, will understand this
announcement to mean something pecu
liarly attractive. Well prepared, served
up in clean, neat style, and by attentive
and polite waiters, the entertainments at
the “Continental" are always of a first
class character.
.gAllsma.”—lt is not often that we havo
the time to spare, or the inclination, to
notice any of the thousand and one pre
parations sold throughout the country,
each, as it is claimed, being a sovereign
cure for one or more of the ills that flesh
is heir to. Indeed, we, have froquently
wondered that people ver died at all, or
grew old even, when, by a small outlay
they could furnish themselves with
something which would keep disease at
bay, and defy the assault of time!
Concerning the efficacy of one of these
remedial preparations—and one which
has become celebrated of late—we can
speak from personal experience, and con
scientiously say it is good. We refer to

The Burdett Organ
Our friend, Mr..H. Kiebsr, has just re•
turned from Chicago, where he bas
se
lected at the factory some fifty of the -
famous Burdett Organs. The rise and
progress in public favor of the "Burdett"
is something wonderful. The wonder,
however, ceases when you haVe heard
the music it makes. Such softness,
sweetness and delicacy of tone, and such
volume power, and variety of sound,
have never before been joined in , any one
instrument. Mr. Btirdett, Ifl the proud
consciousness of the superiority of his
organs, has not spent one dollar in adver
tising, where others have spent thou
sands, and yet he is always behind his:
orders. To be good, an instrument must
talk for itself, so go to Kleber's and hear
and be convinced.
