Pocket book Lost. On Wednesday,
Dec 5th, Ilenry Albert, of Woodland, lost
his pocket-book, in this borough, contain
ing between $130 and $140. The finder
will be liberally rewarded. See advertise
ment. HorseThieves About. On Wednesday
night, Dec 5th, a fine dark bay iiorse was
stolen from the stable of J. & J. Holden,
in Pite township, this county. A reward
u( j0 is offered for the return of the Iiorse,
jnd an additional $25 for the apprehension
of the thief. '
Store Robbed. We learn that, one
night last week, the store ot John Fergu
son, in Lumber-city, was entered by some
unknown persons, and goods valued at $700
stolen therefrom. About $500 worth of the
goods have since been found secreted under
the Methodist church. Suspicions are en
tertained against one or two persons, but no
arrests have been made so tar as we could
ascertain.
Tire Weather, During last week, the
atmosphere was quite mild and spring-like,
in this region. Some rain also fell, which
had the effect of making our roads very
muddy, and in some places almost impassa
ble. Oa Sunday night, however, old Boreas
.swept down over us again, and on Monday
morning the ground was froze quite firm
and white with snow, and cold and high
winds have prevailed since then.
The President's Message. -There seems
to be considerable difference of opinion, by
the newspapers throughout the country, re
specting the Presidents Message some al
ledging that he had said too much, whilst
others contend that he said too little. But
the people of Clearfield are of the opinion
that he should have closed it with the fol
lowing most important announcement :
"Mossop sells the cheapest goods in Clear
field county. Buy all your goods at Mos
op's!" Is Tins So? In the Brookville Repub
lican of Dec 5th, we find the following
item of "news
"We learn that the bones of a man were
recently fourid near Luthersburg branch of
the Sandy Lick Creek, Clearfield county,
Mipposed by some to be those of a man nani
1 Himes, who suddenly disappeared in that
neighborhood some six or seven years ago.
It is the opinion of many that Himes was
foully dealt with, on account of his money,
or by reason of serious difficulties between
him and some of his neighbors. His friends
are suppoed to live in the vicinity of Wil
liamsport. Pa."
And the Bellefonte Press, of Dec 7th,
contains the following:
"The people of Osceola were considerably
startled on Saturday- last by the finding of a
human skeleton, about two miles from that
place. From appearances it is supposed
the body had been there for a period of five
or six years. The bone of one leg still re
mained in the boot, which had been gnawed
by wild animals as the marks of their teeth
were plainly visible in the leather. There
have been various surmises as to the identi
ty of the body, none of them however prove
satisfactory. This is the second or third
human skeleton which has been found in
that locality within the past three years."
Will not some one of our Luthersburg
and Osceola friends inform ns whether the
foregoing are facts? .If the statements are
correct, they prove conclusively that "to
get news you must go abroad." ;
As Item for Ale-Drinkers. Not long
ago the spigot of a large vat in one the large
breweries in one of our large cities, where
they make the celebrated "XXX Ale," be
came obstructed. It was therefore necessa
ry to draw off the ale in the vat, either by
a siphon or some other means, in order that
the cause of the obstruction might be as
certained and got rid of. The bottom of the
at being laid bare, the cause was at once
discovered. There were about four bushels
f deceased rats, in various stages of de
composition. The unfortunate creatures
had fallen into the vat, and had become
"drowned rats."

CONSUMPTION CURABLE BY DR.
SCHENCK'S MEDICINES.
' To cure consumption, the system must be pre
pared so that the lungs will heal. To aocompliah
thia tbe liver and stomach must first be cleansed
and an appetite ereated tor good wholesome food,
whioh, by these medicines will be digested prop-,
erly, and good healthy blood made; thus build
ing up the constitution. Sehenek'a Mandrake
fins cleanse the stomacb of all billions or mueu-
ous accumulations; and. by using the Sea Weed
Tonie in connection, the appetite is restored.
Bcnencg's ruimonie syrap la nutrteioiis as wen
as medicinal, and, by using the three remedies,
all impurities are expelled from she system, and
good, wholesome blood made, which will repel all
disease. If patients will take these medicines
according to directions, consumption very fre
quently In its last stage yields readily to their ac
tion. Take the Pills frequently, to eleanse the
liver and stomach. It does not follow that beoause
the bowels are aot costive they are not required,
tor sometimes in diarrhea they are aeeoessary.
The stomach must be kept healthy, and as appe
tite ereated to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act
on the respiratory organs properly and allay aa
irritation. Then all that is required to perform
a permanent cure ia, to prevent taking cold. Ex
ercise about the rooms as mueh as possible, eat all
the richest foul fat meat, game, and, in fact,
anything tbe appetite oraves ; bat be particular
aad masticate well. - Oct 17, 18A6
