It isn't often that buyers can secure goods at
wholesale prices, but we offer that chance while
they last on an exceptionally good line of pocket
books and purses. This lot comprised the sam
ples of a "drummer" for a large wholesale house
and we bought them two months ago for de
livery June 1st. The important point is that
they were sold to us at pne-third () off the
wholesale price, so that we can sell them at the
price" dealers ordinarily have to pay and still
realize a small profit. They arc going fast.
Don't expect to have one in stock after next
Saturday.

One of the best, and simplest cures for

this substance for ten minutes after retir

person and relax the most overwrought
nerves. Onions contain a form of opium.
This givos them soporific qualities. The
smell after a little while ceases to bo
obnoxious. People who are exceedingly
sensititivo to odors will feel no unpleasant
efforts. It will not induce beadachos or
nausea, as might be supposod. A gentlo

Death of S. S. Towler.
Rarely has the death of any one pro
duced such a gloom over this community
as that of Dr. S. S. Towler which oc
curred lust Monday night, June 13, 1900.
Whilo not a citizen of this place he has
been s widoly and favorably known to
all here that his loss will be almost as
deeply felt as in his own town of Marirn
ville. Since his serious illness a lew
weeks ago, and especially since the
d-ath of his wife, the Doctor's many
frionds havu boen apprehensive as to his
complete recovery, but nouo thought of
the end coming so soon.
On Sabbath evening the Sabbath School
of the Presbyterian church, of which the
Doctor was superintendent, was holding
its annual Children's Day exorcises, and
the Doctor was just about to address the
children when he was strickon with par
alysis and fell to tho floor unconscious.
He was carried home aud the best medi
cal attention was given to him but all in
vain. He lingered till 1:15 a. in. Tues
day whon ho quietly breathed his last
without having regained consciousness.
What a fit place and occasion foi tho
closing of such a life, In the house of
God which ho always loved, aud in the
service of the Sabbath School In which he
was so much interested.
Dr. Samuel S. Towler was tho son of
Rev. William Towler aud was born iu
Manchester, Eng., Juuo 0, 1813. In 1815
tho family came to New York city where
Rev. Towler had charge of a Methodist
church. After the father's death in 1846
tho mother aud children removed to Tor
onto, Cauada. In I860 the Doctor wont
to Cleveland, O., from which place lu 1SG3
ho entered the quarter master's depart
ment at Nashville, Tenn. In 187:i be
graduated from the inodical department
of the Michigau University and began
practico at Reynoldsville, Pa., and after
wards Iu Millerstown, Pa., coining to
Marieuyille in 1878.
As a physician he was wii.ely known
as very successful and conscientious.
making no;difforonce botwecn rich and
poor, uiving to each alike his best ser
vice. He was a member of the State
Medical Association and for a number of
years was chairman of the Committee
ou Scientific Businoss.
In 1800 Dr. Towler was elected by the
Republicans of Forest county to the
Sta'.A legislature and was elected again
in 18!i8. He was faithful in all tho duties
of his office aud gained a reputation all
through the Stato for tho active intorest
he took in all matters that camo belore
that body, and his brilliant speeches in
the house which attracted wide attention.
At homo be was no less faithful in bis
duties as a citizen, taking his place and
using his influence in all local matters to
the best interest of the people.
For many years he was a member of
the Presbytorian church and was an elder
In tho Marienville church since its or
ganization. This church being supplied with
preaching only a small part of tho time
and having no resident pastor tho work
of tho church has largely fallen upon the
Doctor, to whoso wiso, able and energetic
efforts is due in a very large measure the
success of the church. He led the prayer
meetings, which were always well sus
tained, lie was Superintendent of the
Sabbath school for years and taught the
Bible class. He was simply untiring iu
all work that belonged to tho Master's
Kingdom. He had ability aud was pop
ular, every body liked him ; and being
gifted with great energy he was the natu
ral loador in almost every work in which
he engaged. He was in a manner fi lend,
helpor and counselor to most of the peo
plo iu his community. He overlooked
none, and the little children will miss
his kindly face and familiar pat oft the
head, as v!ll the poor whom ho lias
helped, the sorrowing ho has comforted,
tho sick he has visited and the distressed
he has relieved. None wore more char
itablo than he, much of this work being
done In such a quiet manner that but
few knew of it.
Ho was President of the County Sab
bath School Association, since 1895, hav
ing boen reeloctcd at the convention
which met in Tionessalasl month. Tiie
success of the Sabbath Suhool work in
the county is in a good measure due to
the good management of its President.
Here a gap has beou made that will bo
hard to fill as ho was oue of the very
best county presidents in the stale.
The death of such a public spirited,
wide awaKP, energetic, benevolent Chris
tian cannot but bring sadnoss to nianv
hearts. His friends were legiou, and
aro not confined to his own couuty. Iu
tho boreaveuieut that camo to him a few
weeks ago iu (he loss of his wifo, tele
grams of eondolonco and sympathy were
received from many of tho siato officials,
0110 being from Govern r William A.
Stono iu whoso estcom tho Doctor stood
high. Nor was his popularity confined
to his own party, but, however he might
dillor from othors politically.thoy always
respected him as a man, At the Demo
cratic County Convention held in Tiones
ta yesterday tho following resolution was
adopted :
"That we loaru witli profound sorrow

legislature, in whose death the county
has loft 0110 of its most active citizens,
whose death, following so closely that of
his esteemed wife, has cast a deep shad
ow of gloom over the entire community,
and wo extend our syni athy to his be

Dr. Towler was married in 1874 to Miss
Clara B. Hunt, who preceded her hus

which wo published two weeks ago. Two

We noted last week the mysterious
burning of Leonard Aguew's farm barn
near Sigel, Jefferson county. It has
since developed that the fire was un
questionably the work of incindiaries.
After the lire which had burned the barn
had been subdued it was discovered that
an attempt had been made to burn the
dwelling, a fire having been kindled un
der tho stairs of the inside cellar-way,
but which failed to make much headway
owing to the lack of draft in that quarter,
and it was promptly extinguished when
discovered. In the absence of Mr. Ag
new's family some miscreant had gone to
the promis"s evidently bent ou commit
ting a piece of wholesale vandalism. If
tho family has any suspicion as to who
the oncmy is that would burn them out
of house and home they have not let it be
known.

Murderer Major's Nerve
The Meadville Tribune says: For a
man who stands convicted of murder in
tho first degree, Frank Major, alias
Joseph Kennedy, alias Danial J. Kehoo,
displayed a remarkable amount of confi
dence iu his ability to evade the gallows.
Major was seen by a representative of
this paper in his cell at tho jail and he
chatted as pleasantly as though he were
but a thirty day prisioner, instead of
standing in tho shadows of the valley of
death, under a very heavy guard and
four strong locks. The Sheriff compli
mented Major on the tidy condition of
his cell, which caused the prisioner to
smile, and turning to the Tribune man
ho asked If a situation could not be se
cured for him in 0110 of tho Meadville
hotels. Shoriff Seotl states that Major
has never broken down under the great
strain, unless it be when ho has prayed
on two or three occasions, and is to-day
in very good physical condition. He
takes considerable exorcise and feels con
fident that ho will some day walk out of
his cell witli a natural death before him.
Who the "Boxers" Arc.
The "outside barbarians" havo no clear
idea of the society thai is now disrupting
tiie Chinese empire. The Boxers were
originally a law and order league, organ
ized for protection against bandits and
the province of Shan Tung. It was called
"The Society of the Great Sword." As the
society bocamo powerful many dishonest
and designing persons entered it, who di
rected its ell'orts against personal enemies.
Sonio of tlio victims turned to the Chris
tian missionaries for help, pro 'cased con
version, and tho missionaries sought to
protoct them. A serios of outrages fol
lowed until, in October last, the Christian
nations forced the government to send a
force against the Great Swords. Tho so
ciety disappeared, by edict. It simply
took anothor title, "The I-Ho-Tuon," the
I meaning righteousness, the Ho stand
ing for peace aud the Tuon meaning fist.
Honco tho name Boxers, as applied to the
organization. The society is now sup
posod to contain 11.000,000 members. Its
original idea has so much changed that
now its main purposo is tlio lighting and
driving out all foreign influence whether
missionary or otherwise.
