You are cordially and earnestly in
vited to enroll your name as a member

ing and the annual dues ate very light.
The objects of the Grand Army of the
Republic are thus defined:
I—To preserve and strengthen those
kind and fraternal feelings which bind
together the soldiers, sailors and mar
ines who united to suppress the lute
rebellion, and to perpetuate the mem
ory and history of the dead.

in arms as need help and protection,
ami to extend needful aid to the wid
ows and orphans of those who have

,'3.—To maintain true, allegiance to

other manner impairs the efficiency
and permanency of our free institu
tions, (and to encourage the spread of
universal liberty, equal rights and
justice to all men.)
Its ranks arc recruited from only
loyal men, as witness this extract
from our laws proscribing.
ELIGIBILITY TO MEMBERSHIP.
Soldiers and sailors of tii»«. United
States .VririVj Navy or Marine Corps
who s>rved between April 12, 1861, and
April i), isr,."i, in the war for the sup
pression fif the Rebellion, and those
having been honorably discharged
therefrom after such service, (and of
such State regiments as were called

orders of the United States general

again quote from the law :
POLITICS.
No officer or comrade of the Grand
Army of the Republic shall in any
manner use this organization for
partisan purposes and no discussion of
partisan questions shall be permitted
at any of its meetings, nor shall any

THE DUTY OF SOLDIERS AND
SAILORS.
Having thus presented the objects,
defined its purposes and explained the
qualifications necessary to member
ship, we extend a personal and frater
nal invitation to you as a comrade,
who worthily worn the blue and stood
where men only dared to stand in the
hour of our country's peril, to enroll
your name upon the Roster of Post 22.
THE MEMORIES OF '(JI TO '65. |
You need not bo reminded of obliga
tions voluntarily assumed, by which
the soldiers and sailors promised be
fore (rod and man, to forever keep
sacred the comradeship of '6l and '65,
nor ot how we pledged ourselves to
each other to stand by those depend
ing upon brave hearts and strong aims
for protection and a livelihood, if the
issues of War should require the sacri
fice of health and strength and life.
By tlve memories of camps, the march
and the battlefield, as you value your
integrity as a soldier and a citizen,
by the fullness of your hope of reward
for duty well performed, we appeal to
you to discharge a duty common to all
who saw service in the armies and
navies of the Union.
Our ranks are being thinned day by
day, and the number of disabled com
rades is constantly growing larger,
but the Grand Army, while it finds
its chiefest joy in it* charities, cul
tivates otic r objects. Within our Post
rooms the fraternities ot the past are
kept green and fresh ; a spirit of loyal
ty is inculcated,and the awful penalty
of treason (aught by form - and cere
monies, at once beautiful and impres
sive. lis object is not to keep alive
the prejudice and bitterness ot the
war, or promote the selfish purposes
of any man. We have loftier aims
than these, and this appeal is address
ed to the old soldiers and sailors not
affiliated with our order to enroll
themselves under the banner of the
Grand Army of the Republic. We ad
dress you in the full knowledge that
you must have observed and appreciat
ed the value of the Grand Army as a
commanding and potent force—in all
that pertains to the highest interests
of the nation, to urge upon you the
duty of sending in your application
to the Post. May wo ask that you
will act on this suggestion at your
earliest convenience? Any informa
tion desired will be cheerfully fur
nished upon application to any mem
ber of Post 22 or to
Very Cordially Yours in F. C. and L.

AMUSEMENTS.
A HEAVY SCENIC PRODUCTION.
"Clear stage, wo carry all our own
- scenery," is the notice received from
the "Millionaire Tramp" company.
Exchanges say that tho setting of the
Holy Cross Church in the second act
is ono of the most beautiful realistic
stage pictures they ever witnessed.
The third act contains a novel setting,
, tho exterior of an Opera House,chang
ing to tho interior with tho audience
j. seated and tlie performance in progress,
j In this scene theatre-goers will have
the unique experience of watching an
' other audience watch another play, or
in other words, an audience that is to
itself an audience will to tho real au
• dience become actors. "A Millionaire
1 Tramp" will appear in Danville to
night.
"THE TWO SISTERS."
Denman Thompson has played his
"Old Homestead" in every important
city on this continent and has achiev
ed a national reputation not equalled
by any actor in theatrical records.
' More than this, he has personally en
' deared himself to tho general public
j and tho announcement of his appear -
| auco in any city is sure to awaken en
! thusiasm and attract overflowing and
. delighted audiences—composed of the
| best people, regular orthodox church
i attendants as well as the usual theatre
patrons. This statement is made in
• view of the announcements made of
the early appearance here of"The
Two Sisters," a companion piece to
the "Old Homestead"—written by
, Denman Thompson and his jolly lit
erary co-worker, George Ryer. Their
names are an assurance of its unusual
merit and in tho very few places where
Denman Thompson has not personally
appeared "The Two Sisters"'will be
welcomed as a representative of the
best work of our beloved comedian.
This glorious play is announced for
presentation in this city on Saturday
night, February 7th.
"TWO LITTLE WAIFS."
"Two Little Waifs", Lincoln .ij
Carter's latest triumph is conceded to
! be the prettiest scenic accomplish
ment,and greatest dramatic effort that
has ever emanated from that versatile
author's brain. The story is interest
ing from tho rise to the fall of the
curtain without a single dull moment.
Tho cast is probably tho best that has
ever been under Mr. Carter's manage
ment, including many well known act
ors and actresses engaged especially
for their individual ability. Promi
nent in tho production are the tiny
Lamb children, who have gained an
enviable reputation throughout the
I entire country,and give a swoet, del
-1 icate touch of nature to their parts.
, , Tho scenery and accessories are the
( best and most complete equipment
, ; ever handled with an attraction of this
kind. "Two Little Waifs" will ap
pear in our city at the Opera House on
Tuesday night, February 10th.
The Young Men's Christian As

for himself a position among the most
brilliant platform orators of the coun
try. He was a student in Amherst
I College, class of 'B2, and has served
his State with distinction in the State
Senate and as Lieutenant-Governor.
His political life has fitted him pecu
liarly for the line of subjects ho has
chosen, and no one can treat of them
; more interestingly nor more eloquent
i ly. No lecturer receives more flatter

There is more Catarrh in t ins section of the
country than all other diseases put together
and until the last few years was supposed to
i be incurable.oFor a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
1 cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
curable. Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
' Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. It is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon fill. It, acts

FOR THE PROTEC
TION OF CHILDREN
Senator Charles E. Quail,of Schuyl
kill, will present in tho Sonate this
week a bill to amend the factory laws
to protect children.
Tiio act of May 29, I'.KH, is first
quoted. It fixes 13 years as tho ago
limit below which no child may be
employed, and permits night labor by
children. These amendments are then
recited:
That no minor, male or female, or
adult woman, shall bo employed at
labor or detained in any manufactur
ing establishment, mercantile indus
try, laundry, workshop, renovating
works or printing office for a longer
period than twelve hours in any day,
nor for a longer period than sixty
hours in any week,and no such minor
under the age of 18 years shall be em
ployed at labor or detained in any
factory, manufacturing establishment,
mercantile industry, laundry, work
shop, renovating works or printing
office between the hours of 7 p. m. or
6 a. m.
No child under 10 years of age shall
be employed in any factory, manu
facturing or mercantile industry,laun
dry, workshop, renovating works, or
printing office within this State.
It shall be unlawful for any factory,
manufacturing or mercantile indus
try. laundry workshop, renovating
works or printing office to hire or em
ploy any child under the age of 16
years, and that before the hiring or
employment of any minor there shall
he first provided and placed on file an
affidavit made by the parents or guard
ian of such minor stating the ago,
date and place of birth of said child
and establishing the fact that such
child is upward of 16 years of age. If
said child has no parent or guardian,
then such affidavit shall be made by
the child,which affidavit shall be kept
on filo by the employer, and shall be
returned to the child when emplty
raeut ceases.
All persons authorized to administ
er oaths must examine all children as
to their ability to read and write the
English language. After a careful ex
amination, if a child is found unable
to read and write the English langu
age, or has not attended school as re
quired by law, or is under 16 years of
ago; it will be unlawful to issue a
certificate; and in no case shall the
officer who executes-certificates charge
more than twenty-five cents for ad
ministering the oath and issuing the
certificate.
Tho amendments were prepared by
Kellog Durland, of counsel for the
mine workers, after a conference with
John Mitchell. They were reviseil by
J. B. Kerr and .T. E. Burr, of counsel
for the New York, Ontario and West
ern railroad, and by Justice Alfred
Hand and Simon P. Wolverton, rep
resenting the operators.
They aro not all that the mine work
ers desired, but they aro accepted as
an earnest of better laws to come.
TO DOUBT THIS.
So to Disbelieve the evidence of Your own
Senses.
It's Danville proof for Danville peo
ple.
It's local endorsement for local read
ers.
It will stand the most rigid investiga
tion.
Mr. Jos. Hooker, baker, of 10 i North
Spruce Street" says:"l was for a long
time afllicted with lameness in my back,
and a pain over my kidney. I had a
great deal of nervousness, restlessness;
did not sleep well, bad bad dreams, and
was continuelly tossing from side
to side striving to get a comfortable
position. The kidney secretions were
not normal. I was tired all the time
and often had a dull aching in the back
of my neck. I read account of Doan's
Kidney Pills curing people. The de
scription of their symptoms tallied
almost exactly with mine and induced
me to try the remedy. On using them
a short time the whole trouble disap
peared. "

fund to be drawn on for tho use of des
titute families of minors killed at
work. If the plan is carried out SISOO
to $3009 will be given to the widow.

with tho proposed enterprise. It is
likely similar funds will bo created
throughout tiie entire coal region.

HEAVY FOG
AND LIGHTNING
Yesterday furnished quite a variety
of weather. Rain and sunshine during
the day weie li.llowid uiac evening by
a dense fog, which hid even near-by
objects from view. About dark, th •
fog suddenly lifted revealing a clear
sky overhead. It suddenly became
colder with a high wind blowing out
of the west, while in the east there
was quite a display of lightning, which
for nearly an hour played among the
heavy clouds which lay above tho
horizon, suggesting a summer thunder
shower.
Colder weather is welcome. Mild,
> damp, weather in winter, such as we
havt been having is hound to prove
unhealthy. Seldom has there been so
much sickness as exists about town at
present. What is needed to arrest the
progress of disease is clear cold weath
er. Our only hope is that such may
fall to our lot during at least the pre
sent month. Otherwise we may ex
pect the same unhealthy conditions
to continue and probably grow worse.

What to Do.
There is comfort In the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled togo often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. andsl. sizes.

Tendency of the Times.
The tendency of medical science is
towards preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. It is easier and better to
prevent than to cure. It has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that medical
men have to contend with, can be pre- j
vented by the use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always
results from a cold or from an attack of
influenza (grip), and if, has been observ
ed that this remedy counteracts any
tendency of these diseases toward pneu
monia. This has 1 > *en fully proven in
many thousands of cases in which t his
remedy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with im
plicit confidence. Pneumonia often re
sults from a slight cold when no danger
is apprehended until it is smhb nly dis
covered that there is fever and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the chest,then
it is announced that the patient has
pneumonia. Be on the safe side and
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as
soon as the cold is contracted. It al
ways cures. For sale by Panles & Co.

Americans are known as a dyspeptic
people. The extent of this disease may
be inferred from the multitude of so
c tiled "medicines" offered as a remedy.
They are often in tablet form and have
n » value except as palliatives of the im
mediate effects of dyspepsia.. The man
who used tbem m-ty feci better but is
surely getting worse. They do not
touch the real cause of the disease. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a
medicine specially prepared to cure dis
eases of the stomach and organs of di
gestion and nutrition. It is not made
to give temporary relief but to effect
permanent cure. In ninety-eight cases
out of every hundred it cures perfect
ly and permanently.
It has cost Dr. Pierce $25,000 to give
away in the last year the copies of his

On Wednesday morning the 2:! in-t ■
I found that one of my valuable mate >1 j
bay horses had iieen kicked in the- hock
by the other one, some time dnring the
previous night. I found him in a most
deplorable condition. Hi- hock was
swollen as tight as the --kin wonld hold.
The joint wan three or fonr times its
normal size. The horse con Id not I tear
a single pound of weight on it.
I applied MOVER'S WHITE LINI.MI »T
freely to the affected part at once. By
evening the swelling was reduced nne
half. I batheil it again and on Thnr
day morning tl» swelling had entirely;
disappeared. He could now stand
firmly on the injured leg again and by
Thursday night no sign of lameiies
could be seen.
This Friday morning he i* working in
the team as well as ever.
The value of such a liniment on the J
farm and in the stable i- lncalcuahb-.
I think the knowledge of its merits
should l>e spread broadcast a~ rapidly
and us thotoughly as printer s ink can
make it known.
