Opinion of Dr. Mott, Late Gov
ernment Chemist, on All
cock's Porous Piaster.
My investigation of ALLCOCK'd PoROI'S
PI.AHTKR shows it to contain valuable and essen

These ingredients are so perfeclly proportioned
that the Allcock's Porous Plaster will not cause
blisters or excessive irritation, and I find it
superior to and more efficient than any other
plaster.

cess, belongs to the first-class aud must pay

—You may say what you please, but there
is luck in horseshoes. A man nailed one up
on the fence not long since, and a week after
ward his wife, who used to wear out the furni
ture no him, eloped with a friend to whom he
was owing S4O
—A Mercer county woman threw a small
quantity of rough-on-rats into the kitchen
stove and came near paying the penalty with
her life. The fumes so completely filled the
house that for some considerable time it was
deemed unsafe to stay indoors.
—Do not despise the American hen. She is
industrious. She lays every year 9,000,000,000
eggs. She earns the right to cackle. Some of
of these eggs may lie bad. It is not the hen's
fault. She does the best she can. Out of the
9,01X1,000,000 deeds that men do, more or less
of them are bad. A hen's egg is good when
fresh. Men's deeds are not apt to be so.
—Fallen apples should be gathered up and
fed to the pig, horses or cows, for which they
are good in moderation. All these apples con
tain larva: of the codling moth, which, soon
after they fall to the ground with the apple>
leave it and mature in a short time into moths
and these lay eggs on the remaining sound
apples, which become infested with the worm-

somest and best stocked shoe stores in the
State. Everything that a first-class boot and

side of town, on Sunday last and had oue of his
legs very badly broken. Dr. Pillow was called
in and dressed the wounds, which are severe>
u Borne of the bones portruded through the
flesh and skin of the leg.
—We would request all our people who take
an interest in good music to the attend Instru.
mental and Vocal concert to be given under
the auspices of Presbyterian church choir at
the Court House on Friday ewning, August
31, as it promises to be the finest local concert
given; will be assisted by visiting friends. See
programmes for particulars. Admission 50
cents, children 25 cents.
—The S. & A. R. R. is tan on Columbus, 0.,
time, which is 12 minutes slower than our local
time and 31 minutes slower than Philadelphia
time, consequently the train on this road will
arrive here at 2:27 P. M. local time, and go out
at 3:12 P. M. local time. The run from Butler
to Harrisville station will occupy one hour and
twenty-eight minutes; to Mercer, two hours and
fifteen minutes; to Greenville, three hours and
ten minutes.
—A mach-ne for hooping barrels has been
invented. The barrel making for petroleum
alone is enough to cause a revolution in the
cooperage business and to invite the invention
of machinery. During the year 1882 ovec
thirty million barrels of 42 gallons each, of
crude "petroleum were produced, the greater
part of which will, after being refined, reach
the retailer or consumer in barrels. The mak
ing and keeping in order of these barrels is an
important industry.
—lseer drinkers may hereafter know of what
their favorite beverage in made, a.s a law of
Congress went into effect on Thursday last,
requiring each manufacturer to make a sworn
statement once a month, under a penalty of
S3OO for each refusal. The demand can be
made every day, or oftener until acceded to,
and a false statement is, of course, perjury*
The purpose is to enable beer drinkers to
choose that "brand" which, according to the
statement, will prolong life to the greatest ex
tent, or otherwise, as may be desired.
—lt is a mistake to presume too much 0,1
the curiosity that is popularly supposed to
possess all women. This fact was painfully
and pointedly developed a few days ago by the
the Postoffice Department of our beloved laud.
In accordance with a requirement of the absurd
law now existing, they seut a notice to a woman
in Ohio, informing her that a letter addressed
to her was held on account of insufficient post
age. She didn't send the required stamp, how
ever. Instead of that, she sent a note, and
this is "what it said: "When pumpkins are
ripe I will send you one that has more brains
than ever had the man who made this ruling
on postage."
—Two butchers named Young and Humes, I
doing business at Grove City, Mercer county,
were arrested lately for false pretense. They j
gained the confidence of the Messer diocese and
were doing a big business, and within the last
month had purchased over three thousand
dollars worth of cattle, for which they gave
their checks on a bank in Grove city. Upon
presenting the checks it was learned that
Young aud Humes had ceased to have any .
money in the bank aud they themselves had j
skipped. They were followed to Franklin, ar
rested and taken to Mercer for a hearing.
Twelve head of cattle, which they were pastur
ing in Cranberry township, enango county,
were attached and taken to Grove City.
—lt is now but a short time until the Annu
al Agricultural exhibition will be held on the
grounds of the company at Butler, their dates
being Sept. 18, 19, and 20. It ought to be the
aim of every citizen to make this exhibition a
success. This they can do by a very slight ef
fort, viz: by selecting some article in their
possession to place on exhibition. Persons
often complain of the lack of exhibits and are
too apt to reflect on the management for the
scanty show offered. Now it is to the farmers
themselves that these societies look for exhib
i s, and eveiy farmer in the county ought to
feel that he has a special interest in the fair,
and manifest it by adding something to the ex
hibits; all can do this if they only determine
it. Railroads now reacli our county seat from
all quarters; people can come more easily than
ever before, and they ought, and certainly
will avail themselves of the opportunity. The
greeting of friends and acquaintances, and
spending a day on the large and commodious
ground? of the Fair Company at Butler will be
weH worth double its cost. Don't fail to be
there.
—The old McQuistion homestead which over
looks Butler from the soutli is for sale. But
eighteen acres is held with the buildings, but
some sixty more acres adjoining are also for
sale. The house is an eight room brick, the
barn is a large bank-bam in excellent repair,
the ground is good, and the location is all that
could be desired. See advertisement in an- j

Accident on the West Penn.
A wreck occured on the Butler branch of the
.West Penn road, near Monroe Station, on
Tuesday morning of last week. As the market
train was corning down at a rapid rate an
axle of the market car broke, demolishing the
car, scattering milk cans, marketing of all
kinds, killing some calves that were in the
car, and tearing up the track for some distance.
A man had his leg slightly hurt, but 110 one
was seriously injured. The engine had two
coaches, being in front of the break, were cut
loose and came in nearly on time at the Junc
tion. The wreck car was soon on the ground
with a force of men and the road was cleared
that evening.

DEATHS.
BARTLEY.—On Aug. 23,1833, at Brownadale,
Penn twp., this county,.James T. I'artley, in
the 28th year of his age.
Death has again entered our happy circle
and has claimed as its own one that was belov
ed by all ; one who had many friends and few
enemies. Taken away in the vigor of life may
it be a warning to us, srving: "Be ye also
ready." The darkest cloud has its bright spot.
The'darkest night has its dawn, and although
this providence looks dark there is a bright
spot somewhere (although invisible to us.) In
this may we hea." the command, "remember
thy Creator in the days of thy youth." We
tender our heartfelt sympathies and the sym
pathies of the community to the sorrowing
friends. May they have a friend in Him
where friendship is deeper than that of a
brother. J. A. C.
KINSOU—On Aug. 17, 1883, Mrs. Kate
Kinsor, (daughter of the late Capt. Loudon
of Clay twp., this county,) in the 3fth year of
her age.
She had been a hope ul Christian for many
years and her hope grew to confidence as she
neared the valley of death. She had an un
usual acquaintance with the Scriptures, having
memorized perfectly the entire book of Psalms
before she was eleven years of age. A husband
and three children, with many friends, mourn
her death. .L
BCUNSIDE. —At'her residence in Portersville,
nn the 27th of July, 1883, Mrs. Isabella
Gardner, wife of Mr. Robert Burnside, in the

Mrs. IJurnside was a daughter of Mr. James
Gardner of near Portersville. She made a pro
fession of the Faith in the U. P. Church in the
20th year of her age—always conducted herself
ilia becoming manner and has now left toe
church below to join, we trust, that happy and
numerous company that has gone before. '

Wash-day has 110 terrors for the household where DAY'S SOAP is ussd.no unpleasant
and sickening odors to fill your houses, no 'laborious rubbing ou tho waoh-boara, wime tne
washing can be done in one-halt the time necessary by following the old worn-out metnod. .
MADAM —for it is to the ladies w« desire to speak more especially—you are the interested per
son in this matter: you it is that suffers the ills arising from the wash tub and its heavy cares ; you it is
to whom the perplexities and responsibilities ofthe household rightfully belong,, and youi it is that should
interest yourself in a trial of the qualities of this soap, that has always proven itsell to be a boon oi salvation
——■ TO SUFFERiaggg-
We do not come to you with a plausible stoiy calculated to have you try it, simply for the amount
of money such a sale would bring us; we do not come to you as irresponsible parties, who have no rcpu a
tion to suffer calumny, but we do present to you this brand of soap uroon ;»n p.osolute guarantee an
recommendation of a well-known industrial establishment cf Philadelphia, of sixteen years existence.
Do you suppose for a moment it would compensate us to make false statements to you and rum our
well-earned reputation ? No, dear reader ; what we say about DAY'S SOAP is the truth, and ,t is sus
tained by the evidences of thousands of housewives from all over the country, besides whica we stand
ready to endorse it all with ready cash. t/gTDAi'S SOAP is the Original and Only Patented."®*

Wfo eoda no washiner crystals, no lyes are to bo used, but simply supply yourself for the
next wash-day with a bar of DAY'S SOAP, then carefully read tho directions and follow them to
the exact letter, and if you don't say pitch out that old wash-boiler, for lam a wi»e» woman, you
will be the first person we ha\7PVet heard of that has been disappointed. ,
unless you do this you will be disappointed, and then you will scold us and yourself as well. ,
The cost of one enke will convince you that it is tue best and cheapest so.ip ever offered you,
while the smiles that will encircle your brow will do justice to a golden sunset.
Have you confidence in this newspaper ? If so, do you suppose the owner would allow u
to swindle his readers by offering them tempting inducements? He uses it m his own home, and can
c -rtify to its merits. Now you get a cake from your grocer in time for the n-xt wash-day, and become
acquainted with its intrinsic worth. f cllK . tih , t . e nr
Ask your grocer for it, and do not allow him toputyo-i off with anything else for a substitute, for
every dealer can obtain it, and should he refuse you, send direct to
