Tho peculiar caso of Miss Julia Hepburn, who resides near hero, is attracting the attention of local physicians. She has become possessed with a mania for oat ing, and tho amount of food that she dally devours is astonishing. She has to be fed every hour in the twonty-four, and her appetite is growing. She seems to enjoy perfect health physically, but she has become vory nervous. Her physicians tliluk sho is suffering from a nervous affection of the stomach, and suggested that she bo fed until sho was glutted, nnd that sho bo forced to take food until sho turned sick. This Was trlod, but sho ate all that was placed beforo her without signs ot distress, until the physician gave up the treat ment In despair. A magnetic hoalor from New Haven claimed that he could cure her by hyp notizing her. but he fatted. Then cams a physician from Hartford," who claimed. mai sne was "cranicy," nnu saiu unit, u she was put on a diet ot three meals a day, and not allowed to eat any more, she would come outot the "spell." This treatment was tried, but she became de lirious. Sho seems to have no prefer ence for food. Anything that is edible sho devours ravenously, so long as it is cooked. Miss Hopburn, who is of a roligioua turn of mlud, believes that she Is suf fering from a curse. Last Soptember she turned a tramp away from the door of her fathor's houso ouo morning, re fusing to give, him food. In departing the tramp told the young woman that God would curse her for nor treatment of him. These words preyed upon hor mind so that sho reported tho trampls words to hor parents, who laughed at her. But sho grew moody over the mat ter, and about six weeks ago tho vora cious appetite came upon hor. Since then Bho has got rid of the melancholy fits she had previously. Sho possesses her senses perfectly anil is uble to per form household duties. MARKET OTTIR,- Fresh every other day iiiurnvt. freely, Nice patterns. All 50 ceni up.

Tho society has branches all over tho country with the exception of that city, whero their intoreets havo hitherto been looked after from the headquarters of the society, 488 Adelphi street, Brooklyn.

Even on other days, about tho timo tbo trains aro due, there is always a big crowd. Tho Lehigh has tho "pull" on tho travoling public.

SUNDAYSERYIGES TWO ABLE SERMONS IN THE. M. E. OHUROH. REV. JOHNSON'S ABLE SERMON. In tho Evoninff tho Pastor. Rev, Powiok, Discourses on tho Im portance of tho Work of tho Sunday School Toachor, Kov. Kobert E. Johnson, well known as former resident of this neighborhood, bui now pastor of Bethel circuit, in Mont gomery county, preached a vory oioi llont sormon In tho Methodist Episcopal church yesterday morning on tho contrast betweon Hearers and Doers of tho Word." In tho evening tho church v'hs crowded and a ermon was dolivored by tho pastor os pi cially to Sunday school touchers on tho mportanco of their work. Tho text was from Psalms31.11: "Como yo children, hearkon unto me and I will teach you tbo (ear of tho Lord." Tho term "children" in tho toxt was ono of'on dearmont, as in the toxt "if children then heirs," and includes porsons of all bros Tho Sunday school is not for children only nono are too old to learn. But by lorco of circumstances it deals principally wiih childhood and whatover hR3 to do with childood is important. Early im pressions are lasting and they aro tho most easily mado. Tbon many children receive no othor religious instruction than thoy get at tho Sunday school. This ought not to be. But many parents aro so noglcctful ot this grent duty that thoy givo out tho moral training of their children, as thoy do their mental, to tho teachor without much caro as to how thoy aro trained or whethor they are trained at all. This makOB tho work of tho toachor ono of vast importance and no little difficulty. Then many homes which are moral are not spiritual, lho training consists of thou shalt and thou shall not without the savin truths of tho gospel. Then tho Sunday school toachor of to-day aro sowing th seeds of tho civilization of tho twentieth contury. They have a grip on tho con science and tho habits, tho ballot boxos and tho governments of tho future. Tho hope of tho future lies in tho childhood of the present. Among tho conditions of succoes are, 1 A lofty conception of tho impor tance and dignity of tho work. This is tha secret of enthusiasm without which thoro is no success anywhere. 2 A boundless faith in tho adaptation of tho gospol to tho ncods of childhood and tbo desirability of early conversion. 3 An earnest dosiro for a definite change of hoart this bolng tho focal point of all our labors. Tho neod ol tho church and Sunday school is not moro pooplo of extraordinary parts, but moro in telligent and faithful effort by pr-oplo i f ordinary purls. Whore theso conditions are met teachers will bo regular in their at tendance or in tho ovo t of unavoidable absonco will provide a suitable substitute.

The I'ott.villo Chronicle ot Friday pub lished the following paragriph: "The prospect of s curing a now supply of water, with tho borounh as the corporation to supply it, is not as bright as it was a few weeks ago. Tho joint committee of citi zens and members of tho Borough Coun cil soloctod a stream in the Catawissa Val loy from wh'ch to draw a supply( but whon thoy caino to mako thoir surveys, they dis covered that tho Citizens' Water and Gas Company had hoadod thotn off by securing the prior and exclusivo right of way to convoy water over tho lands of the Olrard Estate and tho lands of Wm.
