Ashlon's factory filled Dairy is most

Thirdly Parties should be careful and
pack butter uniform in color, and - should
iiarticularly remember the tact thai streak
ed lots no matter how sweet and choice
cannot be brought in competition with
lots uniform in color; the latter always
commanding t much quicker sale at a fair
p:einium,and in every way compensating
dealers for their extra labar and care.
Fourthly Jars and pail should be
avoided for packing purges as much as
possible, ttie lormer costing mure ireigui,
besides being a pcclagc not easily han
dled. In handling at the stations and ex
press ollices, and tven in forwarding Jars
and pails are often placed on top of each
other, and as there are no covers lor pro
tection, the quality is materially damaged
by defacement, and the price is considera
bly lessened. However, jars should be
abolished as they are never taken by ship
pers, but entirely await the call ol local
consumers and retailers, for whom they al
ways arrive in excess, nnd mast be placed
asiiie for a more favorable opportunity;
perhaps to be taken by parties engaged in
repacking, who, however, will nut buy
them except at a large discount. Tubs
and firkins should be used exclusively,
but in tabs some discrimination is made.
The Eastern ash and spruce labs are taken
in preference to Others, on account of their
neater appearance, though some panics
use home-made tubs, which they cUitn
answer their purpose. Another icasjn
why these tubs are becoming more in fa
vor on the part of dealers is the fact that
they sell woro readily to shippers, and
parlies can also more readily agree on tare,
if a certain make of tub it used to w hich
they aieaccustumed. Tlicretoro, tubs and
firkins are recommended to be the most
desirable, and, in the end, the most eco

Sweet Sixteen We dou't hear near

"sweet sixteen," says an exchange, but
the sentimental infatuation about it stiil
exists to a certain extent American girl
at sixteen, csecially in the North, are not
usually attractive to men. 1 hey are neith
er one thing nor the other. They lack the
ingenuousness, freshness and freedom of
girls, and they are without the grace,
tact, and charm of women. They arc
very prone to be awkward, indefinite, Bil
ly, and they are very rarely pretty, how
ever much promise they may give of prct
tiness. Their thin features, uncouth man
ncis, extreme self-consciousness and un
conquerable tendency to giggle will ren
der them prosaic enough. If he will
wail two or three years he will see into
what a splendid butterfly the poor, plain

Last Saturday Dr. W. F. Fundcnl-erg,
the well know n oculist and aurist of this
city, assisted by Drs. i li. 1 arsons and
Geo. B. Fundenberg, operated upon Miss
I .aura Michaels, of Morgan county West
a., lor tiie removal ol ner leltcye. hen
quite young Miss M. was so unfortunate
as to lose the sight of her eye from some
lye being thrown into it Recently the
sight of the other one began to get dim.
which nccessilatect the removal ot the in
jured one to save the sound one. The op
eration was entirely successful, the patient
returning home to-day. In a few weeks
an artificial eye can be inserted. In con
nection with the above, we might say that
Dr. F. has performed a large number of
similar operations lately and has been al
ways perfectly successful.
The Stepping Stosh to ITkaltu.
The acquisition of vital energy is the stepp
ing stone to health. When the system
lacks vitality, the various organs flaj in
their duty, become chronicatiy irregular,
and disease is eventually instituted. To
prevent this unhappy state of things, the
debilitated system should be built up by
the use of that inimitable tonic, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters which invigorates the di
gestive organs, and insure the thorough
conversion of food into biood ol a nourish
ing quality, from whence every muscle,
nerve and fibre acquire unwonted sup
plies of vigor, an! the whole system ex
periences ihe beneticial effect Appetite
returns, the system is refreshed by health
ful slumber, the nerves grow strong and
calm, the despondency begotten of chron
ic indigestion and an uncertain state of
healtli disappears, and that sallow appear
ance of the skin peculiar to habitual inva
lids, and persons deficient in vital energy,
is replaced by a more becoming tinge.

took off the rim of his bat, through which
his hair protruded like a I'rince-of-Wales

of paper, bearing the date "M-vy 8, 1 two

"is the next eclipse or the son. Shall sell

with an enterprising air, he resumed his

doubtedly the greatest modern discovery
in medicine is DaCosta's Radical Cure for
dysiepsia, sick headache, sour stomach,
cosiiveness, biliousness, distress alter eat
ing, aud all disorder! caused by indiges
tion or a deranged liver. Its Results
are astonishing, and sure relief is
guaranteed in every case where it is faith
fully used. It tones up the stomach, regu
lates the liver, restores the natural appe
tite, strengthens the delicate and expels all
morbid humors from the system. Ty
phoid and bilious fever might, in alm'rst
every case, be prevented by its timely use.

An Astonishing Fact. A large pro
portion of the American people are to day
dying from the effects of DyspepsU or dis
ordered liver. The result of these dis
eases upon the masses of intelligent and
valuable people is most alarming, making
life actually a burden instead of a pleasant
existence of en jovment and usefulness as
it ought to be. 1 here is no good reason
for this, if you will only throw aside pre
judice and skepticism, take the advice of
Druggists and yonr triends, and try one
bottle or Green s August Flower. l our
speedy relief is certain. Millions of bot
tles ot Ibis medicine have been given
away to try its virtues, with satisfactory
results in every case. Vou can buy a
samp. e bottle for 10 cents to try. Three
doses w ill relieve the worst case. Posi

had a very bid season ia the summer,
and was forced to dote, but will
hope do beier this fail. This theater
kept to popular prices when the
others all changed from one to two
dollars for admission aad I think had
much to do wilh pulling down all the
prices.
There was a sort cf combination
performance at lie Academy of Mu
sic Saturday, wherein many ot our
greatest stars played. It was in aid
of the Actors' Order of Friendship,
and the bouse was jammed
The Chestnut theater is not yet
0D?n. bat it is expected that their
season will bo very brilliant, aa they
have eino cf the best h'ozk. companies
extant, and tho pttfe.'taad admirable
manner in which thev mount their
play, and the exactness and conscious
ness of every person connected with
the theater in the performance of
their duties, and the esmiiske music
which they always furnish, makes
this theater the best liked by all
classes cf any in Philadelphia.
There are a number of minor
theaters here, but they are all cf the
variety cla? s, and do not merit special
mention.
Lectures ore promised by the score,
and other intellectual entertainments,
so that the people here will not lack
for amusements.
If all ihe enterprises ia the ' weild
that are gottea op atid carried on
simply and solely for people's amuse
ment, were completely suppressed
simultaneously, what aa awfully dull
old world this would seem, and how
many persons would be impoverish
ed, thrown out of employment and
made criminals throagh necessity,
and what a stagnation to a long list
of industries, supported entirely upon
the demands made by these very
places, that the ultra religionists
abuse so. And would the money
that is invented in the amusement
bdsiotfa, with all its ramifications, do
any more good if.it were put into
churches aud relig'ous books than it
doeB now ?
1 think as the mat .er stands ia the
l:h century, the theaters do just as
much good as the churches, aad secu
lar books as tench as religious ones.
Comparatively few go to church, and
almost all go to the theater; few
care for religious work?, and nearly
everybody likes novels, poetry, etc.
Therefore a good play, which teach
es a good, moral lesson, (and few
do not) or a book, wherein vice is
wrecked and virtue triumphant,
which is largely read, will really do
the most good according to my ideas.
At any rate, theater going and book
loving people are j'ast aa good aa
those who don't do either, as far as
my observation goes. If anybody
can make ont clearly what I wanted
to say, by reading the above para
graph, they will do better than I
can.
I think I mentioned a short time
since that the great dry goods es

that it "is almost finished, and I sup

Laa so much plot end under plot that
it leaves no chance for critieiaai until
the test word is rend. And even
then you don't care to critirisa much
when you Lave provea conclusively
the worth of the book, for a book is

the proof of the pudding is in the eat-

reading. I was tempted to outline

body wants to sbirc the pleasure 1 1
reading it with me, they won't hava

the tuber book called, Saveli's Ex

said t boa French lady, and trans
lated from the French by Mary Neal
Sherwood. I hardly know to whom
to award the most, credit for this
beautifully written story ; the writer
or the translator, for it is rarely that
a translator so comprehends her sub
ject as to be ablo to reproduce it in
another tongue so that it shall read
frco from that atiHaesa which char
acterizes so many traoslationa.
