BEATTY'S PIANOS AND ORGANS.
Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great Organ and
Piano manufacturer, is building and shipping
more Organs and Pianos than ever, In 1870 Mr.
Beatty left home a penniless plow-bo¥, and by
his indomitable will he has worked his way up
80 as to sell so far, nearly 100,000 of Beatty's Or-
gans and Pianos since 1870. Nothing seems to
dishearten him; obstacleslaid in his wav, that
would have wrecked any ordindry man forever,
he turns to an advertisement and comes out of it
brighter than ever. His instruments, as is well
knowu, are very popular and are to be found in
all parts of the world. We are informed that
during the next ten years he intends to sell
200,000 more of his make. that means a business
of $20,000,000 if we average them at $100 each.
It is already the largest business of the kind in
existence—Send to, Daniel F. Beatty, Washing-
ton; New Jersey, for Catalogue.

Presiding Elder Domer, of the Evangelical

Pleasant Union, where they are holding a bush

but joy cometh in the morning.”
Two ladies, while out buggy-riding hetween
the place of the bush meeting and Pleasant

Aug. 10th, 1892,
During the epidemic of flux in this
county, in 1888, I had hard work to keep
a supply of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy on hand. People
often came ten or twelve miles in the
night to get a bottle of the remedy. 1
bave been selling patent medicines for
the past ten years and find that it has
given better satisfaction in cases of diar-
rheea and flux than any other medicine I
have ever handled.—J. H. Brnuawm,
Drugeist, Golconda, Pope Co., 111. Over
five hundred bottles of this Remedy were
sold irr that county during’ the epidemic
referred to. It was a perfect success and
was the only remedy that did cure the
worst cases. Dozens of persons there
will certify that it saved their lives. In
four other epidemics of bowel complaint
this remedy has been equally successtul,

A Gala Day In the Forest.
It was on Thursday, Aug. 4, thata
company consisting of Misses Emma
Johnson, of Uniontown, Marv Keim,
Carrie Smith, Allie Smith, Ida Beachy,
Lucy Beachy. Alice Beal, Olive Liven-
good, of Salisbury, and Messrs. Ellet
Smith, of Allegheny, 8. McClure, of Me-
Keesport, Rev. Kribhs, Ed Haselbarth.
Jno. Beachy, Jno. Barchus, Harvey
Keim and C. E. Dickey, of Salisbniy,
visited Peck’s Spring.
Promptly at 8 o'clock A. M. the pro-
cession began to move slowly, but not
silently, toward the hallowed spot in the
mountains. ~ At about 11 o'clock the com-
pany arrived at the home of Mr.
Hoffmyer, who cheerfully opened his
stables for the comfort of the horses.
After the horses were cared for, natural
ly, a short debate followed. Question:
*‘Resolved that we eat here.”
Of course the gentlemen affirmed. but
lost. The command to shoulder goods
was promptly obeyed and soon all were
seen’ measuring the distance by single
paces. After walking perhaps a mile
over a smooth road. we turned abruptly
into the forest. All signs of habitation
vanished, and we were left at the mercy
of all manner of wild beasts and venom-
ous reptiles. At first there was profound
silence, not even the chirp of a bird could
be heard. But alas! we were not com-
pelled to take our journev alone. Our
voices echoed and re-echoed through the
dense hemlocks and were answered only
by the bewailing cries of thousands of
hungry mosquitos. They were company,
however, and made it quite interesting
before the journey was completed.
Quite a number betrayed their aesthet-
ic culture by going off into raptures over
the scenery that was exhibited along the
way. The climax, however was reached
when tie spring was discovered. A feel-
ing of admiration went through the en-
tire company as they beheld the large
body of pure, clear, sparkling water be-
fore them; and far was it from produc:
ing a different ‘effect when they cooled
their parched tongues with the same.
Only a few minutes were spent in this
kind of foolishness. The gentlemen had
not forgotten the heavy burdens that ne-
ocenpied their attention during the walk
and were desirous of putting them to use-
ful service. The ladies comprehended,
and in a short time the entire company
sat around a table not made with hands
and smiled a smile that was indicative of
general satisfaction. This effort clearly
demonstrated that ‘Life without woman
would be a failure.”
To say the dinner was enjoyed, would
be expressing it very mildly. The bal-
ance of the day was spent in shooting
mark, shooting snakes, exploring, fish-
ing, ete. | This spring is about 60 teet in
diameter and to us seenied hottomless.
It has an underground ontlet and is as
clear as crystal. It is located about eley-
en miles from Salisbury and easily
reached. Why not go often?
Well, we left this spring, but not until
we again paid our respects to the basket,
Five o ‘clock’ found us again at Mr, Hoff-
myer’s. He opened wide the doors of
bis parlors and for quite a while all were
| highly entertained by Mr. McClure, who
operated upon the organ. By this time
effecting us and we resumed our journey
towards home, which we reached by 9
o'clock. All express themselves as en-
joying the trip very much.
Who will be the next? ;
