Howard Reeder, of Northampton. The fiill-timo eehedulo at tho collieries lias put a little brighter look on local business. Although they have not aroused much outward interest, the Republican primaries to bo held in town next Saturday will be very interesting. There is no doubt tliat under the reduced hours of supply arrangement tho borough can be supplied with all tho water required, witli economical nso, until tho much needed rain season arrives. Tho supply is giving excellent satisfaction under the new schedule. The Iiattimcr murderers aro still at large. Tho latest discovery in connection witli tho case is that a large force of detectives aro at work on it. It is surmised that while tho detectives aro watching each other the guilty parties aro carefully covering their tracks. Too many cooks are spoiling the broth. The contractors have almost completed tho water connections and there has been no law suit, injunction, or other liko hitch in con nection with their work. This is so unusual with work done for the borough by contract that many peoplo can hardly realize that the -work is Hearing completion. The public school teachers of Hazleton have requested the School Hoard of that place to allow them the privilege of spending tho tinio allotted for tho county institute in visiting schools at Norristown, West Chester, Philadelphia and Cleveland, Ohio, tho teachers expecting remuneration at the same ratio as when in attendance at tho institute. It is not surprising that tho Board quashed tho proposition. The peoplo who will bo entitled to vote at tho noxt election aro warned against tho error of voting for seven judges. No more serious mistake could bo made. Tho matter is one of great importance and every voter should hear it in mind. The Republicans should not forget that tho minority party must iiavo a representative ou tho Superior Court bench and only six Republicans can bo elected. Governor Hastings, in appointing the judges lo first compose the court, could only name six Republicans. He was compelled to name a Democrat to fill tho seventh place. Tho best advice to follow in order to avoid any mistake is for tho Republicans to vote for tho tix Republican nominees for Judge of the Superior Court, and not attempt to bother with tho candidates of tho other party. Tin; votur who wants to havo a voice in the making of tho Itopublieun county ticket for tho next election can have it by proxy; that is, ho cm cast a ballot at the primaries for the delofjatos. Tho Republican priniarios will bo hold noxt Saturday. The voter who stays away lessens his chances for having his viows expressed at the proper tiutc, and con sequently cannot gracefully complain if tho ticket does not suit him., Tho man who will not tako tho trouble to go to tho priniarios and veto as he would liko to havo tho regular ticket made up, but trusts to the judgment of his neighbor, makes a mistake and is fre quently theone who always growls, no mattor how good the ticket may bo. do to the primary and vote for tho men you considor will tako tlm host courso for tho party's in torttsts. It is impossible to ostimate tho real value of a newspaper. Not a day passes that some substantial evidence of its influence and power doos not como to light, and tho story of how some fireside has Leon cleared of a gloom and made bright and cheerful through the sorvico of some newspaper is daily re peatod. One of tho latest striking casoe has developed in Scrauton. Thirty years ago Sirs, liautz Ackloy, of that place, was scp- arattid from hor hushand and flvo children. An advertisement placed in a newspaper led to information by which the woman traced and located one daughter at Buffalo and threo of her sons and tho husband in California There is to Lo a graud reunion and no doubt JJrs. Ackloy and thoso who wero so long separated from her will appreciate the value of newspapers during the balanco of their Scrofula in the Eyes &b well as hi every other form, is pcrma nontly cured by Hood's Sarsaparllla. "I had scrofula in my eyes end tried sovernl phy sicians but found no cure. My wife persuaded mo to try Hood's Barsa parllla. I bad a choking sensa tion, was troubled with night sweatB, and had dyspep sia in very severs form. After tak ing Hood's Sarsa- parilla two weeks the choking spells and dyspepsia troubled me less. I have now taken several bottles of Hood's Sarsapa- I rilla and find that I am entirely cured." ! William L. Payne, Berryville, Virginia.

Every Joint In His Body Racked by Rheu matism, Could Not Move His Arm and Was in Con stant Pain A Truo Story of a Re-, markable Case. William F. JIaler, No. 18 Park place, Zanesvillc, O., writes: "About a year ago I had to quit work on account of rheumatism. I had the discaso in my hips, Lack and arms in fact, in every joint in my body, Tho pain was intenso, and I sailercd the most ex cruciating agony. My doctor could not do anything for mc, and I tried overy remedy that could bo suggested; node of theirf did me any good, and finally my joints became btiirened and sore. At times I could not move my right arm anfl was in constant pain. I procured- a bottle of Munyon's Rheuma tism Cure and within a short time was. com pletely cured. I am frco from stiil'ucss and pain, and can cheerfully recommend Mun yon's Kcmedy as the best I havo over known." Munyon's Ithouniatism Curo acts almost instantaneously, curing many obstinato cases in a few hours. It is guaranteed to cure rheumatism in nny part of the body. Acuto or muscular rheumatism cured in from ono to five days. It never fails to cure sharp, shooting pains in the arms, leg, side, backer breast, or soreness in any part of the body in from one to threo hours. It promptly cures lameness, stiff and swollen joints and all pains in the hips and lotus, chronic rheu matism, sciatica, lumbago or pain in the back are speedily cured. It seldom falls to give relief after ono or two doses, and almost in' variably cures beforo ono bottlo has been used. Munyon's Homoeopathic Homo Remedy Company, of Philadelphia, put up specifics for nearly every disease, which aro sold by all druggists, mostly for 25 cents a bottle. Ik Effect MARcn 24, 1895.
