Attempted Suicide.
A Clay Twp. man came to Butler a week
or so ago, stopped at one of our hotels, got
on a batter and stayed on it till all his
money was gone, then got some morphine
pills and went to his room and took them
all.
Wednesday morning his room door was
locked, and nobody paid any particular at
tention to the fact, but bye and bye Joe
came ont and called for help. He was
unable to dress himself, his room was iu
a terrible plight, he having vomiti-d all
over it, and he acknowledged to Laving at
tempted suicide, but the dose was too big
aud only made him sick.
He had written to his wife telling her of
bis intention, and had the hotel man
telegraph her of the fail-re, which he
regretted, saying that his life was insured
aud it would havo been hotter for all if he
bad succeeded.
Thei e is said to be another woman, and
some jealousy iu the case.

Everybody Eats Crackers.
Everybody eats crackers, and consequently
anything relating to tlielr manufacture and
sale Is o( general in*erest. There was a ttme
in the history of the business when erackers
were all about the same. One brand was Just
about as good aA auot her, and none a tempta
tion to a delicate stomach- That time has
passed. It was a good many years ago. The
crackers of the prevent da} and generation are
as different as rtav Irom night. Tuere ate good
crackers and bad crackers; IresU crackers and
stale crackers, and of the whole lot, stale
crackers are the worst.
'lhere are some grocers in Hie eountry who
sell stale, unpalatable i rackers because they
can get them cheap ami make a big profit on
them. They think tl elr customers don't know
the dlflercnee, aud by and by when their crack
er trade is ail gone and tie y don't sell a box In
a week, I hey look surprised and say : "Funny
how people's tastes change. They don't care lor
crackers any more."
IJon't they, though? People don't care for
stale, unwholesome crackers, that's true, but
they do care for a craeker that Is pure and
fresh. and altogether delightful as an arttcle ot
food. The Marvin factory, on Liberty street.
Pittsburg, is scarcely able to nil Its orders. It
Is turning out more crackers to-day than It ever
(lid lit-rore, and the trade is still growing. Why
Is It? It's simple enough. Marvin's crackers are
the best that are made. People who use them
once Invariably want them again, and tlie
groctir who sell* theiu alv.ay Buds that they
not only prove a good source of revenue to him.
but make his store popular with the people.
Marvin's crackers are made by skilled bikers
of the very pure-t and best materials obtain
able; they are scut out from the factory fresh
from the ovens, and are never rendered un
wholesome and unpalatable a well by being
stored In a warehouse Tor a month of two wait
lug for orders. The ordeis are always waittng
tor tlie crackers. Always af-k for Marvin's
Crackers at your Grocer's. If you are not al
ready familiar with them,try ttiem and be con
vinced of the truth (.1 all that has been said
about them. Vou'llnever regret it.—The Penn
sylvania Grocer.
