embarrassed in securing suitable tenements,
there seeming to be a greater demand for

much sickness among both old and young.
Don't be too ready to lay aside the wraps ;
better stick to them and be a little too

which may eud in something more serious.

According to tbe Meyeradale OmmereM.
tbe contractor for the Stoyestown bridge
" was to get $1,084 for the job. The view
ers assessed $684,000 damages, leaving him
but $400 for material and services." It is
now in order for the Co turner daT $ lightning
calculator to demonstrate, to its own satis
faction, tbat by this marvelous statement it
has saved at least five thousand and eighty
four dollars to the county. A reproduction
of the " funny story " entitled " He Made
the Riffle," which baa been going the rounds
of our exchanges for the past two years,
would be appreciated at this juncture.
Plants, in bedrooms, as a learned writer
now declares, far from keing hurtful, are
beneficial, inasmuch as they exhale a cer
tain amount of ozone and vapor, which
maintain a healthy dampness in the sir. and
besides tbat are destructive of tne microbes
which promote consumptive tendencies in
human beings. It is only flowers, and not
the plants which bear them, that do tbe
damage. Ferns are innocuous ; roses and
suu flowers are pernicious, at least during
the interesting period while they are in
bloom.
Next to the love of her husband, nothing
so crowns a woman's life with honor as the
devotion of a son to her. We never knew a
boy to turn out badly wbo began by falling
in love with his mother. Any man may
fall in love with a fresh-faced girl, and the
man who is gallant to the girl may neglect
the poor, weary wile in after years. But
the big boy who is a lover of bis mother at
middle age. is a true knight wbo will love
bis wife in sere leaf autumn as bedid in the
daaiet spring. There is nothing so beauti
fully chivalrous ss the love of a big boy fT
bis mother. CaWue Herald.

Tax RnLLia SxATxCaAXt The Pittsburg
Tuna would like to know if there is any
body so forehanded with knowledge as to
settle why it is that the roller ekate lonacy
overcame the public mind so suddenly and
sorecentlv? Why, for instance, didn't it
develop a year, or two years, or five years
ago, when roller skaters and roller skating
were as meritorious and amusing as at any
time since. This is one of those intensely
psychological problems that come unex
pectedly and all of a heap to bother tbe in
quiring spirit of mankind. In some places
it is remarked that this sort of recreation
bas become so virulent as to occupy not
only the minds and time of the population,
but to have so straining effect on personal
fiscal affairs as to threaten a mild epidemic
of bankruptcy. Boarding bouse and store
keepers feel the infliction to tbe utmost; they
say their bills remsin unsettled from week
to week, all the spare change tbat their pa
trons secure jier.g to the enterprising rink
projectors, and that nothing short of a gen
eral mobbing of the cause of this distressful
condition can adequately meet tbe emer
gency.

From Out Regular Correspondent.
There hare been several very lively and
exciting scenes in tbe House this week, al
though scarcely an thing bas been done. On
Monday evening tbe Governor's veto of tbe '
first House bill, establishing fcrar additional
Magistrate's Courts in the city of Philadel-;
phia was read, and then the fun began. !
which lasted until tbe time fot adjuurn-
sJment. Filibustering and political strategy
PWre resorted to by the friends and enemies
ef the bill, and the veto message u mt dis-
posed of until Thursday, when tbe b;U was
finally lost for want of twelve votes to give
it tbe necessary two-thirds. Mr. Fauute, ao
old Democratic member from Philadelphia,
and Sneaker of tbe last noose, made the
most powerful and eloquent appeal for the
bill. He said it was not a question for pub
lic opinion and newspapers to determine,
for the Constitution of tbe State has deter
mined it, and it is only necessary for mem
bers to consider whether they will act in
acoordanos with the oath they had taken to
I uphold, defend and obey tbe Constitution
fof Pennsylvania, or to follow with the mob
wbo despised the mandates of tbe Constitu
tion, and were crying as of old, "Crucify
Him, crucify Him."
Immediately after the natural gas explo
sion in Pittsburgh, every member from the
Allegheny delegation seemed to bsve a '"nat-
oral gas" bill to Introduced Of course they
want a liberal appropriation in every bill,
and to impress tbe necessity of such a tbing
upon tbe minds of the unsophisticated
members from tbe country districts, the
balls and aisles are filled with smiling, en-
ergetic, omniscient " bill-pullers " It is al -
most time for Pennsylvanu to stop the un
necessary appropriations that every two
years she is called upon to make. While I
do not think it good policy for the legisla
ture to promiscuously grant appropriations
to every public or private institution, nei
ther would it be wise to go to the other ex
treme, and refuse -aid to all; but every ef
fort should be made to find out what insti
tutions are worthy and give them a fair
and just appropriation, hut not one tbat
will fill the pockets and make ricn the dif
ferent officers.
The only bills tbat have passed the House
this week were bills making appropriations
to pay the Judges in Philadelphia, Berks,
t'ambria and Clearfield counties, as these
were cat eut in tbe general appropriation of
1883.
A caucus of tbe Republican Senators was
held last Wednesday night to determine
upon a bill for the Senatorial apportion
ment.
Evervthimr moved alm hsrm.mi-
cveryuiing movetl along narm.Hii-
ously, and tbe current of opinion iavured
and tbe current of opinion iavured
a ratio to be determined by dividing the
population outside of the eight districts of
Pmladelpbia by forty -two. The Philadel
phia Republican delegation of the House
have agreed upon a representative appor
tionment for Philadelphia, which gives
thirty-two Republican and seven Democrat
ic districts, and this it is believed the gener
al caucus will accept.
Tbe Senate has done very little this week,
except pass three or iotir insignificant meas
ures. It cannot get properly down to wurk
until the House quiets itself, as it has been
quarreling and wrangling for nearly four
days over the veto messae-
A bill bas been favorably reported (and it
looks as though it would go through) which
prohibits the employment of school teachers
under 18 years of age. This will be disas
trous to a great many young teachers. I pre
sume, in yourcounty, ss I think the average
age of your teachers is scarcely IB.
Pittsburgh's handsome statesman, Chris
Magee, has been here several days this week,
moving around among the Legislators and
Senators in his usual genial and affable
manner. It is singular to watch how the
reporters and newspaper men follow around
after bim and constantly watch bim, as if
be were a dynamiter.
Tim O'Leary. the big. fat. Democratic
ward politician, has been here In the inter
est of tbe natural gas companies.
All tbe talk now seems to be in regard to
the different apportionment bills. Tbe ire
of Hon. A. J. Colborn was aroused the other
day, when one of tbe Senators sai d they
were going to make a Congressional district
out of Somerset, Fayette and Westmoreland
counties. He told tbe Senator he would
fight such a bill to the bitter end, and he
knew "the frosty sons of thunder" would
stand by bim. Westmoreland is overly
tnxious to be tacked on to some Republican
district so she can forever throw off democ
racy,, and ber Senator and Representatives
seem to tbiak Somerset, with ber 3.000 Re
publican majority, n the best county to be
hitched to.
The general sentiment among Republic
ans, so far as I have tested it, is tbat it will
be true wisdom for the Republican majority
to claim neither more nor less than they de
manded during the former sessions, when
the Democrats controlled the House of Rep
resentatives. Petitions are still rolling in,
and so rapidly snd lengthy do they come
that the genial, smiling face of the gd
natured transcriber George VonBonhorst
is forced to wear a frown.
On Friday morning a special train took
the appropriation committees of both Senate
and House to Huntingdon, to inspect the
reformatory there.
Our statesmen have most all gone home,

This vicinity bad quite a grand wedding
last week, and of course, as a general thing
faanariallv in thia nart i if Itumnntrv mwmrw
.. , kw "
tbc crowd, wentro serenade tbe couple with
anything they could get hold of in tbe "rat
tling' line. After arriving at tbe place and
getting permission of tbe old gentleman, we
gave them several rounds of mnsic and ev-
erything went on as merrily as a "marriage
bell." But behold, indeed of the couple
making their appearance tbe groom came
oat in a great rage and said. "What in the
b I do you want here?" We said we want
to see the bride and something to dnnk.
He said, "X don't have to bring her out, and
as to drinking, you may drink water Of
, coarse we ent home sadly disappointed.

ent grades of goods lower than
ever known in Western Penn'a.
We need but quote prices of
two grades to convince the pub
lic. Tapestry Brussels. 50 cts. a yard.
Body Brussels, 1.00 a yard.
These prices are without prec
edent and the goods are the best

advantage of the low prices now,
to recarpet your dwellings.
