The liberal limit of the tickets,the wide rauge of popular resorts from which a choice could be made, and the exceptional facilities tor reaching the shore have left nothing to be desired. The last of the series will be run on Thursday, August 23d. This date covers the high water mark oi the sea - shore season. All the resorts will be iu their best feather, and the cool, fresh breezes which may be enjoyed there during the tor rid heat ol the dog days would be sufficient justiGcaliou for going, even if the bathiug were not at its best, the fishing fiue, aud the other attractions numberless. The tickets as heretofore embrace Cape May, Atlantic City, Sea Isle City or Ocean City. They will be good for ten days, aud will be sold from Pittsburg at $lO aud at the rates quoted below from other poiuts. The K|>ecial train on the main line connecting by regular trains from the branches w.ll run on following schedule:— Train Rate. leaves Pittsburg $lO 00 8.55 A M Butler lu 00 6.30 " Philadelphia, Ar 7.50 P.«l. The party wili rest in Philadelphia the uight ot the 23rd and proceed to the seashore by any regular tram of the succeeding day. The tickets will be good to return by auv regular train within ten days, except New. York and Chicago Limited. --It is perhaps not generally known, but nevertheless it is a fact, that the law forbids any pensioner bargaining, promising or selling his quarterly peusion before it comes due; and on the other band, all persous are forbidden to accept the same in auy manner, as security or otherwise, The fine is fixed at SIOO for any vio lation of the act. and is equal upon the soldier and dealer.

YUI K ATTKSTIOS TO A FEW KACTS If you desire to do the best work and command the highest position in ! your calling, it would be well for you Ito pay close attention to the facts connected with your business. Never before have your customers been so exacting or hard to please as they have been during the past sea son and next season the case will be i worse, instead of better. This is caused by a morn general intelligence and broader education on the part of the people, and by a lack ot corresponding progress upon the part of the dressmakers. Requesting you to carefully read the following, we are, very respectful ly. PITTOCK. & LAVKRY, Gen. Agents. Dressmaking in the Future From tbe National Union] All arts or trades are rapidly chang ing and improving under the careful paiustaking ideas of this practical age. Yet there is one art that has failed to advance in a general way with tbe others. We refer to the art of dressmaking, and especially of dress cutting. But few people realize the import ance ot the above statement; yet within tbe uext few years changes in ideas aud opinions jwill force a tidal wave over this country that will swamp everything before it. Like all radical changes there are many who will oppose it, yet their opposi tion will be carried away with a strength and rush that will make it ap pear as if there was no opposition, while others will be wise enough to see the tide that leads to fortune, and quick enough to take it at its flow. A f«w years ago a lady that wanted to be well dressed patronized French dressmakers, not through force of fashion, but for the best reasons, the English and American dressmakers were not able to produce the fit and style as were French dressmakers. This was on account of lack ot sys tematic methods used in thoir work We know full well that many will take issue with us upon this question, jet an examination of the fact* will warrant the statement here made and would even admit of stronger argu meat. This question should not be ignor ed by any one, and should especially be heeded by the young ladies and dressmakers of America. Ideas are constantly changing and every day brings out new styles and combinations which must be under stood in order to satisfy, and no dress maker is capable of doing the work demanded of her and for which cus tomers pay unless she keeps up with these changes. Is the average dressmaker ablo to meet the demands brought to her by her best customers at this time? No, she is not; and why not? In order to answer this question intelligently it is necessary to examine the plan of training the young dressmakers, and then see the methods afterwards fol lowed, The first thing that occurs, a young woman concludes she wants to work at the trade, and goes and sews three or four months with some one who is conducting the business. She is taught but very little of any thing but the plain sewing and but tonhole making, seeing but little of the cutting and basting of the dress es that are made in the establishments. She is taught nothing of scientific principles, not even knowing such things exist, and as to the beauty of outline in form and geometric propor tion of lines, she has never heard of such a thing and if her teacher knows anything more about it than she does herself, it is a rare occurence. No one, after sober reflection, will say that the training thus received is beneficial to any great degree, and in most cases everything done has a tendency to unfiit the worker for good practical work. About the last week they are engaged in their apprentice ship, they are given a few lessons in some antiquated system, which in its day of glory had neither fit nor style in its catalogue of good qualities With this kind of training or none at all, the dressmaker sticks out her shingle and goes to work as a "first-class" dressmaker. Now, the wonder is not thst they fail in turn ing out good work, but that they can do anything. There are a few worthy exceptions that go to prove the rule, and all such deserve great praise when the trials thev must have encountered are con sidered. The French 9ressmaker learned some time ago the need of a radical change in such methods, and a few enterprising far-sighted men went to work to remove the evil in their own case, and did so to such an extent that they were able to produce sty lish, good fitting dresses upon scien tific principles of cutting and making The results were that they had more than they could do at fabulous prices The knowledge of such work having been done extended over England and America, bearing with it a desire on the part of the ladies to have their dressmakt.rs produce for them the same kind of work. This demand aroused a spirit of emulation upon the part of the oest city dressmakers in both countries with a resnlt that is beneficial and is helping to forward the revolution above referred to. But the knowledge upon the part of the people that there was something better among the possibilities has led to this uprising, until it has become a universal feeling on the part of the people. This demand must be gratified, and woe unto the dressmaker who tries to dam up such a torrent, and great pro fit will be gained by those who are shrewd enough to get in the grand procession. It would be profitable to know the cause of such a change in public sentiment, but it is often difficult to understand why a certain wave of sen timent passes over a country at a cer tain time, yet it is a known fact that such things often do occur, but the greatest factor at work in this case is the effort being put forth by the National Garment Cutter Compauy and to that company is due great credit. Messrs. Pittock k Laverv, repre senting the company in the State of Pennsylvania, have opened instruc tion rooms on Main street; where they will instruct all desiring it in the art of cutting by the most approved methods. Those desiring to lead in their pro fession should certainly see these gen tlemen and investigate for them selves. They come among us highly rec ommended by press and people, aud will call upon you at your place of business or homes. They have opened an office over Renno Bros., 47 South Main Street, Butler, Pa. All are invited to call and see their work. Their rooms will be opened for the present on Monday, Wednesday, Fri day, and Saturdays from 1 p. m. to 9 p. m. —Send for catalogue of Sunbury Academy.
