THE BOARD OF HEALTH. At its meeting last night there was almost a complete shake-up of ollicials, and two of the three positions were tilled by tho election of now applicants. Mr. John Curtin being elected to succeed Mr. Thomas M. Sainlan tin secretary and Hon. l'atriek Coiiry to succeed IMward Miles as Health Oflicer. Dr. Spald ing succeeds himself as president of the Hoard for tho second time and enters upon his third successive year as pre siding olliccr. Ho can bo expected to per form tho duties of tho ollico conscientiously and without fear .or favor, which has been his record for the past two years. Mr. Curtin, tho new secretary, is a young man who very favorably known to our citizens and has filled a responsible clerkship in the freight department of the Lehigh Valley depot for several years with so much satisfaction to the companyand its patrons that there is no room for doubt as to his epualifkatlons for the ollico to which he has been elected. Mr. Conry, the new Health Otliccr, is as well, if not better, known to tho citizens of tho town as Messrs. Spalding and Curtin, Laving been a member of tho Legis lature and served many years on tho School Hoard, of which he is still a member. Whilo such ho has frequently displayed admirable executive ability, especially whilo president of tho Hoard, and he should make an excellent guardian of the public health. One of his characteristics is independence and fidelity to tho convictions of his best judgment. Experience of the past two years has shown that just such a man Is required for the ollico of Health Ollicer. As to the retiring olllcers we feel justified in saying that they have performed their duties well and In accordance with their honest convictions. There may have been timos when they, especially the Health (lllicer, Incurred the displeasure of somo people, but such instances undoubtedly arose from fidelity to duty in cases where the ex igencies of the law aud health regulations allowed no alternative. To leave olllce satisfied that one lias performed his duty as TllK publishers of tho Hr.KAM) arc greatly indebted to Messrs. Hew liros., of the Xews ltudget, for courtesies extended during the past few days. It will always he a pleasure to reciprocate should tho occasion present itself. Our thanks arc also duo tho many other kind friends who have rendered us similar favors. Arrested on a l'OTRery UllnrgA Lancaster, Ph., Aug. C G. C.

For more than a hundred years the Mount Lclmnon Shakers hove Sdudi'il tho cultiva tion of a medicinal plants and sought to ox tract from them their healing essences. Their labor has not been spent in vain. They have made a dlscojery that will prove a blessing to mankind. It consists of a cordial that causes immediate relief in cases of indigestion. The importance of this dis covery will be apparent when wo realize that nearly nitio-tontlis of our BUlfering are caused by dyspepsia or indigestion. Nearly every person you meet has this dljjostivo trouble in somo of its varied forms sick headache, disttess after eating, pain and full ness In tho chest after eating, palpitation of tho heart, etc., aro but symptoms of Indiges tion. To relieve these sufferings has been the study of the Shakers, and they have succeeded. Tho reason the Shaker Digestivo Cordial has such an immediate and salutary effect is that it causes the food eaten to ho digested, for it is undigested food that caues the distress. The Cordial causes the food to he digested before there Is time for it to fer ment and sour on the stomach. When tho food Is so digested it gives strength and vigor to the feeble body, makes one feel bright and cheerful, and makes ono gain in flesh. The Digestivo Cordial is so prompt in its action that tho very first dce will have a perceptibly favorable result. It gives 1m mndhilp relief. Ecry druggist has been sent a supply of our handsome UniiKcy ruz.io hooks, aim a copy mny he had for the asking. It tells all about the Cordial as well as Laxol, the new custoroil. Try a twenty-five cent bottle of Digestive Cordial and sec what it will do for you. Voluntarily Adrnuco Wages. Cleveland, Aug. 0.

When tho l'oUsvillo Hepublioan has no other argument to put forth against Senator Quay it trots out tho Heading Company as a bugaboo to frighten the timid. Its manner of doing this is thoroughly demagogic, hut its continued cry of "Wolf!" scares no one and is very amusing to people who under stand the motive behind it. The Heading Company and its methods aro pretty well known in Schuylkill county and it needs no defense from us, but we are in a position to say that no orders havo been issued up this way to turn in for any one. Shenandoah has more Heading employes among It people tlian any other town in tho county, and if orders luul been given anywhere It is natural to assume it would he doue bore, where Us employe are a power. This, however, will not 'make much ditftsr- m W our misguided contemporary, as it motive is not so much to make people believe the Heading management is in polities a it li Ui detract attention from the actions of tho Pennsylvania railroad whlch.it Is well known, Is doing all in it iower in Philadelphia to assist lloss Martiu, its paid lobbyist, to defeat Senator Quay, and of this our good brother is well aware. Hutthocry of "Wolf!" serves th nurMwo to liide this factor out of sight.
