THE Proprietors of the old established Line have
thoroughly recruited nod renewed their stock,
and are well prepared to forward Produce and Met
chnndise on the opening of navigation.
The long experience of the Ptoprietors in the car
rying business, with their watchful attention to the in
terests of customers, induces them to hope that the
patronage heretofore extended to "Bingham's Lino"
will be continued and inerenaed.
Deeming the usual self-glorifying style of advertis
ing too absurd for imitation, and believin. that ‘‘ ith
termer customers we need no self-commendation, we
would merely invite such as have not heretofore
patronised our Line, to give us a trial.
Our rates of freight shall at all times be as low ns
the lowest that arc charged by other responsible Lines.
Produce and Merchandise will be received and for
warded without any charge for advertising, Storage

HATHAWAY'S
Patent Hot Air Cooking Stoves
V FINE subscriber having entered into the stove busi
mess in Pittsburgh, respectfully informs the pub
lie that he intends carrying it on in its various branches
at the warehouse No. 124 WOOD STREET, above
Fifth street, where lie will be prepared to supply
purchasers with any articles in his line. In addition
to other Stoves which he will have on land, he has
obtained the right to manufacture and sell Hathaway's
Patent Hot Air Cooking Stoves. This stove is pro
nounced superior to any other now in use in the United
States; it is more durable in its construction, and bet
ter adapted to the use of baking, roasting and cooking,
as it is heated very regularly by confining the air in
the stove; and it is a great saving of fuel as well as
labor. I will keep on hand a sufficient number to sup
plc demands if possible; T hove five different sizes,
and will sell them on reasonable terms, according to
sizes. I have now in use upwards of fifty in and about
this city; all pat in use within six months. Being a
ware that the People of Western Pennsylvania have
been imposed upon by the int roduction of new and high
ly recommended Stoves which were badly constructed,
end hayir g soon failed and become TISeIeSSI. I will grant
to persons wishing to procure the Hot Ali Stove, the
privilege of using. it a sufficient length of time to prove
its superior quality before I ask them to purchase.
Persons notifying me from n distance by letter, can
have stoves itnt np nt any time, as I have wagons to
carry them out; T therefore invite Farmers and allzper
sons to come and jtilge for themselves; also to u y them
and prove that it is to your advantage to have one.
All orders will be promptly attended to by the subscri
ber. ROBERT DONAVAN.

Miller's lifausien Ifouse,Sepl, 19, 1844
Mr. R. Dos Avs N—Sir: I have in use one of (lath
nwav's Ilot Air Cooking Stoves, which I got from you
last Spring. It affords me much pleasure to recom
mend it for its excellence. So far as my knowledge
extends, I have no hesitation in saying it is the best
stove now in use. I need not particularize its merits,
but would advise all disposed to possess an article of
the kind, to adopt the best method of satisfying them
selves. that is, to try it; and I doubt not they will be
satisfied. D. R. MILLER.
Washington Temperance House,
Pittsburgh, Sept. 19, 1894. 5
Mr. R. Dos Avom—Sir..—l have had in use for five
months, one of Hathaway's, Hot Air Cooking Stoves,
and I have no hesitation in saying it is the best stove
now in use. The vat-ions kinds of cooking it is calcu
lated to do at the same time, and the small quantity
of fuel tequired, snakes it an object worthy the atten
tion ()fall aho desire a good stove.
UR?' I embrace this opporturity to recommend the
Ilot Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you put
up for me constantly all summer, and I must say it is
a grand article. I belie Ye it is superior to any other
stove now in use in this city. The oven hakes well,
and is large enough to hake four large loaves of bread
at one time; it also cooks very speedily, and it requires
very little coal. I think them worthy the attention of all
who wish a gotal stove; to such I would say, try them
and prove what they are.

THOMAS VARNER
DOCTOR EDMUND LANDIS'S
PATENT DOUBLE SPRING TRUSS.
For the Melioration and Cure of Hernia.
HUMANITY is deeply indebted to the ingenuity
and pie MeV Mine° of Dr Flamtnzd Landis, II citi
zen of Lancaster, Pennsylvania,for a valuable improve
ment in the construction of the Truss for the meliora
tion of Hernia or Rupture, which, after being careful
ly tested by application to a number of patients, has
never failed to give relief, and in most cases bas.proved
successful in effecting a 'permanent .eure.
This improved Truss has been submitted to the must
emi rent members of the medical profession, who, cll . -
ter fair trial and examination, have concurred in pro
nouncing it an important discovery, fatticularly as it
admits of perfect adjustment to the seat of the com
plaint, and of bearing with certainty upon the paint
where the pressure is required. without admitting of a
chance of change or of shifting by any action of the
muscles, hip or body,—the outer spring, which is very
elastic, only giving,hy which arrangement every move
ment is accommodated.
The suffering and imminent danger to life conse
quent upon that most distressing of all complaints,
Strangulated Hernia, need never he apprehended by
persons who wear this impro‘ed 'I runs, and the patient
mlycherish a confident hope, dint in consequence of
theintestine or omentum never being permitted to
protrude in the slightest degree, that the distended
ring or opening will gradually contract, and a perma
nent cure be effected, when the Truss moy be dispens
ed with altogether.
This Truss may be very properly termed, Dr LAN
DIS' COMPOUND SPRING TRUSS; the springs
being 2 in number, the inner and the outer, the latter
ying ovrr the former. The exterior spring is three
times the length of the interior, upon the end of the
latter the compress or elipt ice] pad or block is fasten
ed, which rests upon the affected part. There is
small adjusting sctew, which passes through the octet
spring, immediately over the pad or block, and is
formed to bear upon any port of the block, so that the
pressure can be made to act immediately upon or over
the rupture with the degree of force or weight which
the case may require. The whole apparatus is so ad
justed as to fit any peculiarity of form, at the same
time so flexible as to occasion neither inconvenience
nor uneasiness to the wearer,while following his usual
avocations.
The following distinguished members of the Med
ical profession have borne ample and unqualified testi
mony to the palliative and curative value and impor
tance of Dr Landis' discovery: George B Kerfoot, M
D., and John L Atlee, M D., of Lancaster; Geo M'•

have used them in said Church about two vein's. I
have found them to give perfect sitisfaction. The

TAKES Fire, Marine and Inland Transportation
risks, at the usual rates of other Offices in this
city; but these who arc or become Stockholders. may
insure Fire Risks on the mutual system, which is to
par half idle premium in cash, and in lieu of the other
half to give an obligation for five times the amount
paid in cash, liable to rateable contribution during the
term of the policy; in case it should be required.
Stockholders have thus n chance to save one-half of
the premium, and are besides entitled to a full share
of Ii vide ncl. Charter perpetual.
The mutual tisk lessens in proportion to the amount
of insurances. If ten men insure tiny given sum, each
one incurs a risk of 10 per cent.; hut 500 men would
only incur the tisk of o le fifth of one per cent.
The Company bas been in operation since 1840.
Capital subscribed, $lOO,OOO, on which 20 per cent.
have been paid in, which amount, with about 20 per
cent. more, is safely invested in mortgages and other
socoritios.
There is a considerable amount of bonds on hands,
to be resorted to in case of losges, before any capital
subscribed ran be used. This is the great security,
and this principle of mutual insurances has given great
smisfaction.

THIS plensant and certain cure fur
coughs and colds goes ahead 'of all the
preparations now or ever offered to'
the public. The use of it is so great that the proprie
tor has some difficulty in keeping a supply for the in
creasing demand. Medical agencies, groceries, drug
gists,coffee-houses, and even bars on steamboats keep
a supply on hand. It is called for every where, and
will sell in any place. The reason is this: every one
who has n cough or cold by eating a few sticks fled
themselves cured, as it were, by magic. Persons at
a distance, by remitting the money, post paid, to the
subscriber, will be attended tn. Fur sale by the stick,
