trade essay entitled "Petroleum vs. Protec

after "having made a mash on that sedate and

—All the diphtheria patients in this town
have recovered. The disease in some cases, is
supposed to have orginated from the water of a
well near the Witherspoon Institute, which fhe
children used, and it may be that the hydrant
water in the lower part of the town is not as
pure as it should be. We arc of the opinion
that all drinking water, excepting that used
directly from a clear spring, should be boiled
or filtered. A good filter costs less than ten
dollars, lasts four or five years, and in that
time may save ten times its cost in doctor bills,
orsaye lifo—the one priceless thing on earth.

Seel and abused both him and his old wife, and
then to the house of Mrs. Catharine Sherar, in
Oakland township, where they badly mis-be
haved themselves. Informations were made
against them next day before both Esq. Flan
ufgau,of St. Joe, and Esfl. Kcok, of Butler.
Constable MoCuudless arrested them 011 Thurs
day aud took them before Esq. Flaunigan, who
bound them over for court.
—The boys, Benuinger ami Hewitt, now in
jail 011 a charge of horse by
Mr. Halderman, are said to have confessed to
having stolen the horses and to having receiv
ed five dollars each fortheir work. The horses
were delivered to Wilson, who in also in jail,
and were discovered hitched iu a thicket of
underbrush, 011 the Fletcher farm, near Mar
tinsburg. The following letter, supposed to
having been written by Wilson and to be a
ruse ou his part to make it appear that he hac|
jjf?yered all connection with the boys before
the theft was perpetrated, was found on Ben
ninger's person: "Billie Benuinger. I hear
there is some trouble in Petrolia about us meet
me where we was this morning i will be there
Mr. Wilson discharged me this morning he
heard some talk about us while he was in Pe
trolia to-day. DARRELL HEWITT.

But some folks are slow to learn," added the
old physician, swallowing the cup of steaming
tea which his wife had just poured for him.
Doctor E was right, yet people do learn,
even though slowly. Thy rapidly increasing
