jpaurille |jufclliflenm Established In 1828. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to he incurable. For a great n any years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with loc.-il treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science lias proven catarrh to be a con stitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured bv F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu tional cure on the market. It is taken internally in di.ses from 10 drops to a teaspoon'ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. .Send for circulars and testi monials. Address: 1\ J.

The hot weather seems to have passed for this season. A few farmers have begun husking corn but the majority are en gaged in other work, gathering apples, making cider and boiling the winter's supply of apple butter. Wheat fields are looking extra well, and if the prospects are as good next harvest there will be a very good crop. The apple crop is proving to be better than was thought it would be. Many were allowed to rot for lack of a market for them. Mr. and Mrs. John M. Smith visited the latter's mother at Muncy on Sunday. A very pleasant party for the young people of this vicinity was given by Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Bortz on last Friday night. It was well at tended and a general good time given the youngsters.

TER CONTRA [Original.] , "I have always intended," said C!er aldino—she was standing beside mo in I tlie garden with a lose In her hand— "to test the man I marry. If yon stand the tost my answer .will be 'Yes;* If not It will be 'No.' "In what respect am 1 to be tested—. Integrity, amiability, bravery or appro* elation?" "Appreciation of what?" "Your good qualities." "That thrust Is unkind and uncalled for." "Don't spoil that rose. You are pulU lug it to pieces as though It had offend ed. But this tost—l suppose I am not to know anything about it before hand." "Of course not; forewarned, fore armed." "And I must remain In suspeiise tiir "Oh, I shall not keep you waiting long. Perhaps I'll get an opportu nity"— "Don't give it any; I shall have to wait all the longer." Dinner was announced and wo loft tho garden. Guests had been invited for the evening, and by 9 o'clock we were in the ballroom. "May I have this dance?" I asked of Geraldine. "Certainly not As liostoss it is ray part to look after ray guests. I shall dance with no one tonight" She hurried away. I was surprised j at her abruptness, but I was more sur prised later to 800 her sail by me in a \ waltz with the only man I feared as a j rival. Had the little minx not looked j up at me, a plain question on her ex- j presshe face as to how I Would bear | her test, I might not have known I was being tested. So It Is forbearance she wishes in the man she marries. I will be amia bility itself. Seating myself beside an old friend, I spent most of the evening with her. Since I could not dance with Geraldine I did not care to dance at all, and my companion was an entertaining woman who did not dance. I saw no reason to change my scat. Geraldine danced the cotillon and so plastered my rival with "favors" that he looked like a Spanish captain general. I bore her slights with excellent good nature, congratu lating myself that 1 was winning the coveted "Yes." At last the dancing ceased and the guests departed. I approached Gerald ine and begged that she would give I me a short walk on the piazza. "Thank you, no." she said curtly. "I j am going to bed." Disappointed, lat thinking this a i continuation of the test, I acquiesced without a murmur. "Good night," I said. "A rest will Im> beneficial after the responsibility of en tertaining guests." "There are more trying things than entertaining guests." "Such as?'' "Being disappointed in the man one"-- "What? You have been testing mo? And I have failed?" "Oh. you stood the test well enough; too well. People do not really love who are proof against jealousy." "But that's what I was to do—bear it with equanimity, wasn't It?" "Do you call It equanimity to sit all the evening with one woman, a mar ried woman at that?" We both stood still, Geraldine with Hashing eye and heaving bosom, I an noyed at the turn the affair had taken. "Come," I said kindly. "The lights are- being put out, and we must soon part. Tell me, sweetheart"— "It would not be safe to marry a man who flirts with every married woman he meets." "You were not testing me for that were you?" "No; you showed your natural pro clivity without a test. Heaven knows what you would do with a Delilah Bung at you." Iler mother was In the hall waiting for her togo upstairs. Considering her dissatisfaction with me, I expected her to do so. Instead she went to a sofa and sat down. I took a seat be side her. "Let us sift this matter," I said. "In order to learn If you may depend upon my not showing Jealousy without muse ) ou decline to dunce with me and dance several times with another man." "It didn't seem to trouble you much." "Did you wish me to show Jeulousy?" "1 certainly did not wish you to show indifference." "Very well. I think I see what you mean. Now, per contra, supposing that in sitting so long beside my old friend I had been testing your forbearance. How would you have stood ray test?" "Admirably. I'm supremely indiffer ent to your 'old friend.' I don't caro that for her." And she snapped her lingers viciously. "To sum up, I stood the test as to equanimity, but failed by showing an indifference wliich was all apparent It only remains for me to prove that I am not indifferent by a lifelong devo tion." This defense moved her. She sat turning the matter over in her mind and finally came to the conclusion that the case was not so desperate after all. "Altogether," she said, "I think you have stood my test tolerably well. In deed if you had tested me In the same way I don't know that I could have done much better." I took her hand and begged her to re ward me with tho word I so much wished to hear, and it was not long be fore she whispered it on ray shoulder.

Easton, Oct. I.—After having Buf fered a long time with what his at tending physicians pronounced neur itis, Prof. Francis A. March, Jr., Mayor of Easton and a member of the faculty of Lafayette College, dis covered that all his pains and torture have been occarionedby a steel needle that has been traveling about his body. Little more than a year ago Pro fessor March had severe pain in his right shoulder and was treated for a sprain that he had no recollection of having sustained. A month or so ago his right leg began to bother him. Sharp, shooting pains troubled him, especially when he was walking. While bathing the sore leg today the Mayor found a lump a short dis -1 tauce above the knee. A little later it was discovered that something sharp was protruding from the skin. It was found to be a needle, little more than an inch in length. The needle was removed and the Mayor was re lieved of his pains.

PRESH CHAPTER OP DETAILS j Shied frcm Eveiything That Might j Make Socs Martin Think Him Too | Aggressive to be a Docile Mayor. SPECIAL FEAR OF RAILROADS On Nearly All Important Corporate Issues the Journals Record Penrose's Nominee as Abaant or Not Voting. Edwiu S. Stuart, head of the Mc- Nichol-Martin-Penrose state ticket, is making a few fine promises of what he would do in Harrisburg if elected gov ernor. Unfortunately for Mr. Stuart., nature never intended that he should bo a public officer, aud he.after five years' experience as a select council' man in Philadelphia and four as mayor, ought to be as well convinced as all well-informed people in that city are that he has been utterly unable tc make the slightest improvement upon nature in his essaying the performance of public duties. In private life Mr. Stuart is amiable, honorable, and in all his dealings between man and man perfectly trustworthy. But he was not born to fight, and he won't do it. il? has never done it. He can't do it if he tries. Being as gentle as a refined woman and utterly devoid of aggres siveness, it would be as reasonable to set a dandy lap-dog against a ferocio;i3 bandit as to expect Stuart, in a giib< r natorial clash with the public-plunder bosses, to get the best, of them. A fresh chapter of pointers from the Journals of the Philadelphia select council ought to convince any doubters in this mat ter. It is a fair conclusion that a meinb?r of select council who, throughout the five years preceding his election as mayor, was a chronic dodger from the most important of the votes during that period, Is not the warrior wanted In ! the executive cliair at Harrisburg in these times. In this particular the con trast with the life-long, constantly active foe of law-defying corporations and monopolies, Lowis Emery, Jr.. ig an th* penny dip to the unclouded noon-day sun. Mr. Stuart's incapacity for dealing with the capitol looters and the whole outfit of public plunderers would be sufficiently demonstrated by his refusing the urgent requests from his fellow-citizens to help them -.'.gainst ! the gas-works robbers and franchise ! thieves In Philadelphia, last year, when ho was put upon record as declining to permit Ills name to be used In connec tion with the non-partisan town meet ings of protest against the attempted steals. But. there are more unanswer able arraignments than that against him in the select council journals. | No Other Member Dodged So Often. A general idea of this voluminous in i dlctment was given in many newspa j pers of the state a week ago. Now let I some parts of his record as to select council votes on railroad and street I railway bills be inspected by an impar j tial public. Some of these bills, o! themselves, have little interest for the "country," but they were momentous for the city, and either to the rural or ! the urban citizen, Stuart's attitude toward them proved him to bo, in pub -1 lie matters,"afraid of his r.wn shadow." On May 19, 1887, he d te on the Rapid Transit resolution, passed by 14 to 12, urging the governor to approve the Rapid 'I ran <it : which the people of the city were clf.moring. He was present but "not voting" when the relative strength of the friends anil foes of rapid transit was tested on sev eral occasions in the summer of that year. The details would take too much space in this paper, but any citizen wanting particulars can get them in the public libraries of the city, as well as in tho offices of the clerks of coun cils. Some votes that he ventured to cast upon those rapid transit questions were to place upon the projects restrictions which had the effect of delaying for 20 years the relief for the congestion of passenger traffic In Philadelphia. On a "great railroad day"in tho chamber, December 13, 1888, as on 25 other very important occasions during his term, Stuart, according to the official record was absent. On that particular day : there came up the bill for the construc tion of the Schuylkill River East Side railroad, which, with Stuart not pros- | ent, passed finally: and the German town passenger railway extension meas- ! ure, which caused a very hot fight while the non-combatant gubernatorial ! candidate was away. He was present on February 21, 18S9, but is not record- ; ed as voting on the bill to extend the tracks of the Union Passenger railway j on many important streets. Nor did hr j vote on the next following measure, ' the Callowhill Street wharf lease, which might have been made a wholesome precedent for preventing the presenl disgraceful handicapping of the city's commerce by the railway corporations hogging of the most important wharves along the Delaware. Impeded Grade-Crossing Abolition. But, behold! When these two bills | had been disposed of, Stuart was nol j afraid te vote on the subsequent in- I nocuous measures. At a later session i there was in the house at Harrisburg a bill for the abolition of steam rail road grade crossings. Ever since thai year, 1889, that question has grown with intensity of popular indignation over the large number of persons killed annually at those grade crossings. A resolution in select council, on Aprii 18, urged passage of the bill pending In the legislature. Stuart, breaking his rule to be absent or a dodger, when such vital measures came up, voted tc refer the resolution to a committee I Next he voted for indefinite postpone ment, which would have killed the res olution, an extremely moderate meas- j ure, as It merely indorsed the leglsla- j tive bill's declaration that, there should j 1 be no additional grade crossings except where "avoidance of them was not rea sonably practicable." Stuart, in thret different votes on that day. stubbornly set himself against that modest provl- ! sion for the prevention of the great los« , of life that has since resulted from the corporation control of councils and the legislature. This Is one of the mosl loudly-crying evils In Philadelphia to day. Extremely Timid on Big Issues. A select councilman might plead sickness or unavoidable absence for a number of apparent delinquencies, bill , how Is the Republican candidate for , governor going to explain away the fncl that his presence and voting upon mat • ters that the whole people wen- watch i tngj. or that would involve him in some 1 A., | Bears tho " 11318 j '' v c ~ ''* j intwomou.

THE MUSSULMAN. 1 (Hr IK'votl'ju In Inteimc and 1I« la Proud of 12Ih Religion. A traveler In Africa writes: "This is u land of religion. Tho Mussulman's devotion in Intense, over present and all pervading, being not an accessory tacked on, as it Wfcre, to his life to be practiced more or less surijaptltiousiy, but an essential part, wherewith and wherein he lives at all times. A Mus sulman prays openly and publicly, in nowise afraid to be seen. Every man wears bis string of beads whereon ho records the number of his daily pray* ! era. Notwithstanding its, to us, un inviting appearance, the religion has | made and still 1» making great strides j in Africa, and one can only attribute this to the fact that here at last is a religion of which its adherents are in I no way ashamed. It offers to tho faithful absolute assurance of salva tion and engenders Unit blind, unhesi tating l'alth therein which is so com forting to the native mind. "Seeing a crowd of pilgrims bound for Mecca patiently—nay, with pleasure enduring the worst treatment that ono could Imagine meted out to herds of driven slaves, one envies the excess of faith that can engender such a de position. Though robbed, slain, starv ed, herded wltli pestilence and sub jected to countless hardships aud an noyances, yet year after year they come from far and near thousands and tons of thousands strong on tills the most wonderful and far reaching of lat» ter day pilgrimages. "At Jedila one sees pilgrims from all corners of the globe—Dutch sub jects from Java, Chinese from Peking, shiploads from India and Farther In dla, Russian subjects from all parts of the great empire, French subjects from Algiers, from Morocco, and dusky negroes who have tramped for mouths from the western shores of Africa. Through many lands aud midst many tongues they come, all to meet at this thronged center of the maelstrom of the Mussulman faith." GREEK ATHLETES. Tho Wu>• They Hun nml tlie Style o 1 Trade Tliey I'Hcd. "In tho foot races of tho ancient Greeks," says a writer, "the shape of the stadium caused a great difference, since it was not circular, but long and narrow, with one or both ends semiclr culirr. Consequently the runners had to take a sharp turn at the end of each ■ lap, while except at the turn they were j running a straight course. Evidently this turn needed much practice, for the I pictures on the old vases show athletes practicing this one part of the race as | a kind of drill, taking each movement separately. "In early times, when all the runners turned round the same post, tho turn gave opportunities for foul play, and stories of one competitor trip ping another irt the post or selziug him by the hair to prevent his winning. But later, in the shorter distances at least, each runner had his own track and post to turn round, and probably the separate courses were roped off In much the same way as they are now In sprint races. For the start elaborate arrangements were made end at Olym pla the stone slabs are still to be seen. With the grooves at regular intervals that had to be toed at starting "Greek long distance men ran in the most approved style of the present day Rut the sprinters apparently em ployed a considerable amount of arm action and took very long steps, rising well onto the toes. Then there was the race in armor, an event highly praised by several of the Greek writers as a valuable preparation for war and which is supposed to explain the fa mous running charge of the Athenians it Marathon." THE HIGH CLASS KOREAN. DelnK u Druwinn: Iloora (iontloiunn, He IN ti Sluve to Dress. The Korean is above everything else a man of the drawing room, and all bis instincts move along tho leisurely ways of life. Anything like haste or "on pressement" is unknown to the j eternal laws that govern him. Thif ' characteristic of his Is evident in all ! his actions at all times and under all j conceivable circumstances. Being a drawing room gentleman, dress is the , great ambition of his life.

No atom of dust 01 fly speck shall mar them.

Not only has he a headband, a top knot and a hat on his head, but ha buys a pair of spectacles and adds them to already overcharged head pear, and thus rigged, with a ring on his linger and a fan in his hand, he goes forth to make his way through this troubled world.—North China Her- | aid.

No Time to Hesitate. "As I have little Kste for politics and do not aspire to office, I might shrink from entering into this contest with all that it implies, but when I contemplate the situation; when I view the oppressed people, and visions of graft and illegal practices in politics and in office come up before me, I resolve it is no time to hesi tate, especially when that hesitation might cause delay and disarrange plans that have been laid for the purpose of pushing the work along with dispatch. Apalled by Liquor Traffic. "Especially am I impelled in this course when I reflect that one hundred thousand human beings annually are prepared for eternal destruction by the evil Iwfore us, and believing the worst enemy of souls the world has ever known, namely, the liquor traffic of this nation, is in the midst of this conviction, awed by the evil before us, and believing that help will come from God, that I feel constrained to enter upon the contest for the high office in which so much in fluence centers. Not in it for Spot's. "In the midst of silent contemplation I am ready to cry out: 'My God advance me onto the great work and invest me with power that will enable me to dis-j charge every duty.'
