The attention of all election boards in the county is called to the fact that the law requires tliern to send two returns to the Prothonotary of the County—one seale,t State on the Ist of Oct ober. It requires that the marriage no tices shall be filed with city or town olerk, who shall enter on a book kept for that purpose the nama of oach party, place of residence, time an~ place of marriage, and name and official station ol the person signing the crtificate. This service re quires a 25 cont fee. —The effort to show that tho Licycle is immoral revives the proposition that im morality is the result ol bad persons rathei than bad vehicles or bad anything else. There are bad church members; wherefore should we abolish the church f There is immorality in some schools; must we therefore abolish education T And thero are wimen who ache for notoriety; must we therefore banish from the road all modest women who use the wheel for pleasure or exercise!—' Thero is a tendency in opposing some new things to raise the ory of immorality. To the puro all things are pure.—lmmorality comes from tho heart, not from using any of the good gifts of nature, art or invention. —Young men who prepose practicine throwing a ball all winter in the bam shall heed the warning of an eminent phy •ioian regarding the "Oat Carve." He says th»> the effort to put (hat particular twist on the ball strains the poctoralist major and the coraco-brach (a small at tachment of the muscular process operat ing the acapnia or shoulder blade, in giv ing the arm the wide swing this curve re quires), the infraspinatus (muscles lying beneath the thorny protrusions of the lat ter bono and affected by a necessary twist of the full ;srm) and the ulnir (muscla which operates the under and larger of the two bones of the forearm) in its special application to this effective delivery.
