A .it kv of Germans In Milwaukee has decided that a bag-pipe is not u miixlcitl instrument. That is not so MirprisiliK as it seems to be.

His Kxcolloncy would bo an improvement on the silent Don, and if the (iovernor appoints many more Quay Mippoiters to olllce the Heaver statesman may be induced to "wink the other eye." Tin: recent past has shown how much and how little all our professions of friendship with the mother country moan in reality. We talk about blood being thicker than water, of our ties of kinship, and of language, and much more of the same sort, but let a sharp dispute arise between the two ountrios and all these are forgotten and every man is found ready to war with Kng land to the death.. All else sinks out of sight over night. The authorities in l.uzerno county appear to have unearthed a band of bandits that rival the Italian Mafia, If our dispatch from Jlazleton, published yesterday, presents the truo state of all'airs. The lower end of that county has been the scene of many crimes recently that has placed a blot upon the fair name of Luzerne. It is to bo hoped that with tho capture of l'assarella, the leader, the despenito gang has been broken up, and that the recording of crimo by tho press of that county will bo a thing of the past. Tiik enforcement of the resolution debarr ing all children from attendance at school who are not vaccinated, has caused a decrease in certain grades that should not be. The action of tho School Hoard was right and proper, as is generally acknowledged, and in enforcing tho resolution tho members only carried out instructions from tho State Hoard of Health. It is to bo regretted .that so many parents allow their children to remain at home because of a failure to bo vaccinated, and thus deprive them of tho education tliey are entitled to. Gukat interest was excited in ollicial circles at Washington by tlio publication in the Washington Post of a statement to the effect that tho Russian government has ofl'ercd to lend the United States any amount of gold up to $ 100,000,000, one-half of its total possessions in this specie, in order to main tain its credit against assaults from tho great money powers of other European nations, and that, learning of this tender, tho lioths chillis, through Messrs. Uolinout and Morgan, have made overtures to let tlio United States hac any amount of gold needed. The tender was not influenced, It is said, by the Venezuelan coHiplicHtioiiK, but tho offer was made two years ago, and it still, holds good. Tin: local business men havo had a succqsl I'ul holiday season so far, and tho indications point to a continuance of the brisk trade until the new year is ushered In. No effort appears to have been spared on their part to meet the want of their customers, and never liefore has such a varied display of holiday novelties and seasonable wares lieeu dis played in Shenandoah. The columns of the IIkk.w.d have played an Important part in the brisk trade, and the fact has lieen fre quently commented ujion that our advertii- ing space was never so eagerly sought after i and takon advantage of. Tho local holiday lnido demonstrates very ferolbly that it pays to advertUe, and especially through the Hkkalii columns. WiBB pulling fur tho itoslHons of delegate to the National Republican convention is now going on quietly, but some ell'ectlve work Is being done It is the usual custom to concede one uVU gate to the two sections of the comity, north and south of the mountain.

Dyspepsia or ordinary indigestion is seldom regarded as a dangerous disease, yet doctors now realize that any disturbance of the digestive function is but a stepping stone to the most dangerous and fatal of all diseases dread consumption. This appears very clear when wo consider that consumption, as the name implies, is; hut n consuming of the body's substance. Weakness and emaciation naturally result. The body of a person who does not prop erly digest food undergoes wasting, a nil you may safely assume that every pale, thin person ot your acquaintance is nofproperly digesting and absorbing food. In other words, the substanco of the lnidy Is being consumed and when tho cough puts in an appearanco they will bo regarded as con sumptives. k Tho synptoius of consumption and thoso arising from certain forms of indigestion aro practical identical. Therefore don't despair even It you timiK your lungs may neauecteil. First try to repair your stomach and put itin order. This is best dono by a very harmless though very ingenious remedy the Shaker Digestive Cordial. This product, prepared by tho Shakers of jnounc jCuaiKiu, urns mo uigosuon oi loon in tho stomach, and when food is onco digested, it is quickly absorbed. If you are dyspeptic, don't wait until somo more dangerous diseaso bus appeared. Cor rect the troublo at once. A single 10 cent bottle of tho Shaker Digostive Cordial will bo sufllciciit to con vince you of its merit, and its continuod use is almost certain to ell'ect a cure.
