My business (wholesale flah dealer) naturally leads me to damp plaoea. I eould not walk, and at night I suffered fearfully; I tried Balsams, Sartaparillas and all kinds of tinctures, but they did rae no good and I was afraid of being a cripple. I finally com. menoed using Brandreth's Pills. I took two every night for ten nights, then I began to improve. I continued taking them for forty day and I got entirely well.

Some time asp the town of Sunbury was terribly workeuup over a report that It con tained many wicked men and threat were made that If the reiorts were not contra dicted trouble would ensue. Tho report have not only remained uncontradicted, hut have also lieen confirmed and nobody has been killed. Now If somebody had started such a report In Shenandoah no one would have been surprised, because It Is a notorious fact that some jmrts of the town are rotten to the core, and a respectable lady cannot walk the street without being grossly insulted by men, young and old, who should know better, or without being brought dangerously close to some trap laid for the unwary. Wo have learned from a most reliablo sourco of some actions which lead to the conclusion that we have in our midst men who do not possess a sjmrk of principle. Parent will do well to keep a strict watch upon their daughter and keep them at homo at nights unlet they are under protection. Poor Dhector Derr has handed me a clipping flora a La Crosse, Wisconsin, pier sent him by his brother, who is a resident of that place. The paer sets forth that the people of La Crosse lenrn from a llazleton, Pa,, dispatch that hundieds of families of Shamoklii, Mt. Caimel, Ashland, QlraidvUle and Ceiitralia are on the verge of starvation and many storekeepers have cIomx! their doors, being forced to tho wall. Mention of the report is .made in these columns only to assuie our western iriends that it is without, foundation and they need not let it worry them. It is true mauy lamllies are suU'eriug more or Ices because the mines havo been working very irregular throughout this legion, but to far as we are able to learn the starvation point is still fcomo distance oil' and we know of no storekeepers going to the wall. Another thing, tho curiospondent writing to papers from llazleton havo de stroyed their reliability by a hunger for sensationalism. Attention has been called to tho daily practice of boys and girls attending tho White street school. At noon thoy assemble at the corner of Whito and Centro streets and unreasonably attack with snow balls people who aro obliged to pass tho comer. Iluns and Poles aro their special target and the townsman who has called attention to tho matter says the attacks aro too 6evere. If they delight in tho sport let tho boys and girls wago war on each other, but let the pudustrians alone, else they may find them bclves in an uucomfortablo situation. Tho merchants aro complaining of tho practice became they find it induces peoplo to stop passing their stores when thoy think tho tormeuters aro about. Speaking of snow-balling reminds mo of an incident of Sunday last, in which Chair man Hairity figured conspicuously. When Mr. Ilariity and tho other Philadelphia capitalists wcro riding along East Centre street in a sleigh they all woru high silk hats. Mr. llnrrity shouted to bomo boys on tho Ftreet that ho would give thtm fifty cents if they would hit the hats. The boys took up tho ofl'er promptly and beforo tho sleigh had gono half a square Mr. Harrity and his fellow visitors had received one of tho warmest snow ballings they experienced since their youth. Tho party enjoyed it, however, and tho snow they carried with them into the privato car they ubed to assail each other on tho journey to Ashland. Tho license nuuounccments mado yester day have led to 110 small amount of discus sion and criticism. To givo all that has been said on all sides would fill an immense vol ume, but the old maxim again presents itself, "thero is no use crying over spilled milk," and I do not inend to dwell upon tho subject here further than to say that much dissatis faction exists because it is though that many of the licenses granted wcro applied lor to enhance the renting or selling value of properties, and not because of public neces sity. The baying of a big bull dog and aury words of two men attracted a crowd to tho corner of Main and Coal strtcts, Tuesday evening. Tho arguments were listened to with elose attention and it was learned that tho fuss arose over claims to ownership of the ugly pup. Finally words failed to bo con vincing and big, hard fists were resorted to and were introduced with somo force to tho respective countenances of the combating couple. The dog, too, was inclined to take a hand, although a leg might havo been more to his taste, but bofore he could become an active participant an amicable settlement was reached and both men walked olf, leaving the dog to.strull behind them. Congress lias at last passed tho car coupler bill and therefore the railway employes and those dependent upon them for gupiort may rejoice. Tho frightful slaughter of these employes, owing to tho neglect of railroad companies to use on freight cars the latest improed appliances fur wiving life, demanded some action by Congress and the step now taken seems to be in tho right direction. While in Harrisburg recently a gentleman of town met a legislator with ideas of men and measures aro somewhat old-fashioned in thoir character, and it seemed that possibly the war of words in the House at times over trifles had made him a little pessimistic. But, however that may be, ho seemed just a little depressed, and eawd his mind by taking our townsman into the cloak room and pour ing forth his soul in words. And the burden of his lament was something to this effect : "It looks to me, judging from somo of the bills pending in the Legislature, as though public spirit and civic pride among the people were yielding to the commercial tendencies of the age. Duties of a public character, services oi party necessity, hitherto performed gratuitously by men interested In .the public weal or animated by party fualty, aro now to be paid fur and reduced to the inure level of work, done for a pecuniary recompute," "Now, as regards paying election watchers World's Fair Holiday Trip ! t EVENING- HERALD CONTEST 8 1 o Days at the World's Fair With accommodations at n flrit-class Chicago hotel, and transporta tion to and from Chicago, Including sleeping berths, all free of cost, To the 2 Most Popular Teachers.

Stroot. continued the lamentor, "is not tho samo thing true? Are thero not three good, sturdy partisans in each election diwrict willing, for tho love of their party aloue to put in one day a year at the polls without pay ' I stood at tho polls tho day Abraham Lincoln was first elected, and I'vo stood thero every olection day since, as havo thousands of others, and never got or wanted a cent fur it. My experience in politics has been that tho best 'workers' aro those who tako a hand through pirty enthusiasm or friendship for a candidate, and not the fellows who have to bo 'fixed' overy tinio. A true partisan works for party fealty and principle, not for $2.50. And I can't help thinking that the use of money in polities has reached a point where it ought to bo curbed, rather than encouraged and author ized by law. Election expanses, legitimate and otherwise., aro continually increasing until it looks as though tho poor man would gradually be crowded out of the race for office. Surely party services should be the spontaneous, gratuitous evldetioeB of the citlaen'a ideas of piiuclple and party duty, and not the mechanical action of a man in spired only by tho almighty dollar." Obb, That old established cough lemedy, Downs Elixir, still more than holds its own In the public estimation, despite sharp and active competition. It is a "home remedy," and in this locality needs no word of praise from us, so well and favorably known Is it. It is tho Btandardtremedy for coughs, colds and all throat troubles,; with great numbers of our people, and their continued use and un solicited recommendation of it speaks vol. nmee in its favor. iurjinfon, Vt., Free Prm, January 20, 1602. lm Fresh Morris Elver Cove Oyster rwelved lflv at Cortfe. -asuf JJIOK COUNTY OUMMISsHlONBR, , JJHNJ.

As to Senator Herring, it is said ho means to appoint his fathor chief deputy if ho should be fortunate onough to succeed Major Penman. Senator Herring seems to bo looming up pretty rapidly on the political horizon for a fledgling. But he comes honestly by his talent for public afiairs. His father, Georgo A. Herring, is a man of good capacity and force of character. He has had something to do with politics all his life, first in Schuylkill and later in Columbia county, and usually bagged what he was after. Ho is an all around able man, standing high among his friends for many flue qualities of both miud nud heart. His sou has received exceptionally good training from him In all directions, social as well as political, and thus his rapid advance ment in statecraft can in a measure readily be accounted for."
