PoTTSVILLK, Dec. 31, 1892.
OSSIDF.lt the old year
JUICWl a tto pomp and mag-
qucrer, and tho purity
and innocence of a
fresh and healthy babe.
Give it a glorious and
hearty welcome. With
new resolutions, new hopes and new ambi
tious let us start over again, and be somebody
among some people, forgetting and forgiving
their offences, past sorrows and past vices.
Upward and onward should bo our watch
word ; to conquer and live our passport.
Tho year just waning has had its victories
and its defeats. What of tho new ono just
dawning? Starting out with new resolutions,
too many Bhould not be made only to bo
broken. Ono well made and well kept Is
worth it hundred contracted iu Billyness and
broken in hastiness and nastiuoss.
We should remember that all of us are too
pioue to err j and wo should resolve to
refurm ourselves in order to reform our
brethren. To that end let us give the public
tho news iu a perfect Bhapo and our criticUins
in a charitable and well-meant style.
ALMSHOUSE MISTAKES.
Down below Schuylkill Haven there is an
institution called tho Almshouse, kept and
maintained by tho taxes collected from the
peoplo for the support of uufortunato paupers
and managed by three directors elected by
tho people. Next ytar tills Board will con
tain Slessrs. Ebling, Bcrgan and Dcnythree
fairly good representati . of tho solid
yeomanry of our county. They aro just now
preparing to select their subalterns and lay
down new rules and regulations. Steward
KmericJc is to be retained bo is tho present
btewanloss; and with tho exception of a
change in tho physicians, ull tho former
incumbents are to hold over. W. F. Shep
herd, Esq., is to bo choeon solicitor again
although George J. Wadlinger, Esq., iaglving
him a lively tusslo for the placo. For our
part wo don't cate who gets it. Tho public
will be still safe and it wont benefit tho
pauper ono bit tho more, whoever wins. Mr.
Shephord has been a good solicitor and
counsellor and Mr. Wadlinger will make just
as good a one, no matter if he is over-ambitious.
Georgo has been a candidate for
many things, a judge, a Wiational position at
tho last Democratic state convention, and a
member of tho county standing committee,
and is now said to aspiro to tho county
Democratic chairmanship as well as poor
house lawyer. All of us havo rights to
aspiro few of us get thero. For goodness
sake, let he who asks,teceivo everything he
wants.
Hut let tho directors make no mistakes
noxt year. It is said every visitor who calls
gets his dinner, a little stlululcnt and a cigar,
if ho wants one. , Yet recently Steward
Emcrich shut down on feeding somo Demo
cratic plumbers who were putting iu some
good work at the llousoaud made thom bring
their own dinners while hundreds of callers
got all they wanted without asking, during
tho past year. Now is a good time to im'
provo on last year's follies. The food sup
piled and paid for by tho people is for the
poor of (the House, andl Steward Emerich
should begin now and turn off the sjiiggot of
his kindness with the taxpayers' supplies.
I'KACE AND ritOSl'EEITV'.
Above all let us strivo for peace, prosperity,
profession and plenty of pertinent pointers to
push us Into prominent positions. These are
noble alms. They will ho the Hkrald's,
your scribe's, and should bo tho readers. All
are gained by attention to details, Tho
Herald for 'ninety-threo will be a paper
which should bo welcomed in evory house
hold, olllee, counting-room, and publio place.
Learning as we age, your scribe will endeavor
to educate and elevaia in his periodical
letters, whilo he will strive to emulate and
allcviali; emulate his superiors in the pro
fession and thereby alleviate the troubles of
the peoplo in their search for truthful news,
by giving everything that is important to
tell and omitting to record all that which
does not entertain and enlighten. Prone to
err a I havo said, all of us are we may
fail, but to try to Improve Is our one new
resolution for the new 'ninety-three. The
reader can aid us materially and thereby
reform himself and herself, anil all his and
her relations. And first of all let everybody
ubscrlbo for the IIuuai.d and resolve to be a
subscriber for life. This should bo a new
resolution by the people who aro not now on
the Herald'b roll of honor. Let them do
their duty and we will do ours.

A'cno lait night had ono of the largest
audiences ever Been In Rabbins' opera houio.
Tho hall was packed to tho door and sovcral
hundreds were turned away. Tho front
seats wero nearly all occupied by ladies.
Owing to tho enormous success Veno has had
and tho increased demand for his remedies
ho will return next Wednesday and will lec-
turo every evening for a short time. A first
class cntcrtnlnment will bo givcu at each
lecture. Vcuo's remarkable remedies have
had a tremendous sale through tho
coal region and miraculous euros aro being
reported every day. Veno is staying
at tho Ferguson House, where his medicines
can be obtained after next Wednesday. They
can also bo obtained every night ut Rohbius'
opera house, where he is lecturing. His cure
for deafness and catanh, cold in tho head and
bronchitis is unsurpassed by any physician in
tho world. Veno obtained the recipe from
Sir Morcll McKenzie, who was looked npon
in Europe as tho greatest authority in the
world for diseases of tho throat, nose, eyes
and ears. This gentleman was knighted by
the Queen of England. Veno Electric Fluid
is a liniment. It is different from any other
because ituiontains tho elements of positive
and negaflvo electricity. Great excitement
was caused in Pottsville, Scranton and other
cities by-.the miraculous cures made upon
cripples for rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago
and stiff joints by this liniment. Veno has
other remedies for dyspepsia, liver complaint,
nervousness, skin diseases, etc. Judging from
what the people and tho American news
papers say wo have every confidence in
reoqmmcnding Veno as ono of the greatest
boa-lino wonder workers of the present age.

Painters and DocoratorB
Interested.
HE local association of
the Master Home
Painters' and Decora
tors' Association o f
Pennsylvania met 1 n
town Wedniaday even
ing. All the painters
of town and nearly all
the painters of the
Mahauoy valley belong to tho local branch.
Titus Berger, of Pittsburg, president of the
itato association, was present at the meeting
and delivered nn address, during which ho
urged the members to exert themselves In
securing the best materials for all kinds of
work they undertake. Mr. Berger also re
ferred to the convention of the state atno-
elation, which will be held in Scranton on
January 10, 11 and 12, next, when several
interesting papers will bo read. John
Beattie, the national president, will bo In
attendance.
After tho meeting a member of tho local
association told a Herald reporter that ono
of the most Important pieces of work the
organization has in hand is to compel man
ufacturers and dealers In oils and paints lo
give quantity and quality as called for by
tho labels on their packages. Many piintcrs
are frequently condemned for their work, he
said, when really tho painters themselves are
deceived and defrauded by tho niauufac
turers aud dealer sfroui whom they purchabo
the materials. At the state convention a bill
introduced in Congress on tho lflth inst., by
Mr. Pugh, will bo discussed. Tho object ol
the bill is to regulato the sale of paints, white
lead, colors aud linseed oil. Tho bill pro
vides that any pcr6ou who shall soil or oiler
for sale auy package of paint
linseed oil bearing a label which
falsely describes tho contents of such
package shall bo guilty of a misdemeanor,
and shall be subject for tho first offence to a
fine not exceeding $100, nor loss than $,,0:
and for a second offenco shall bo subject to a
fine not exceeding $500, nor lesi than $250
or imprisonment for not less than three
months, nor more than one year, both. That
bill provides that any label shall bo held to
falsoly describo the contents of auy package
o( paint or linseed oil if tho actual contents
of such package shall bo found not to cor
respond with tho content as claimed on such
label; and that if any paint shall be found in
the jossession of any dealer In paint it shull
bo deemed prima fa ia evidence that the
samo Is offered for salo.
The bill also provides that tho Secretary of
tho Treasury shall appoint a competent
analytical chemist whose duty it shall be to
aualyzo any paints or linseed oil sent to him
by any purchaser; aud iu tho event of the
labels on such paints or linseed oils being
found to bo false, ho shall deliver to the
District Attorney iu whoso district such
paints were purchased his certificate showing
tlio results of such analysis, aud tho District
Attorney shall proceed to enforce the pen
alties under the act. Tho bill has had a
second reading.
John L. Hassler, of town, and William II
Snyder, of llahanoy City, will represent the
local association at the state convention.

Take it all in all, no article of animal food
contributes more largely to tho support of
life than tho ham. From the handy and
rapid sandwich to tho daintiest of forcomeats,
it is in constant demand. Our cockney
cousins across tho water assure us that of
all delicacies nono la more highly relished
then "a bit o' weal cut with a 'ammy knife,"
and tho flavor of a good ham, we will all
admit, is most appetizing. But there aro
hams and hams, and perhaps ths least satis
factory of all the housewife's purchases Is a
rank, unsavory, ill-cured ham. Now those
who know and they are the large army of
those who never buy any other say that the
famous "Ferris" hams are as near perfection
as anything can bo in this imperfect world.
A baked "Ferris" ham for dinner will
surely cause n genial smile to float all around
the board.
