Tiik sensationalism, untrustwiirthiness and
general lack of decency in certain newspa
pers is provoking sharp criticisms from the
pulpit, from the religious press and from
secular periodicals of the highest class. The
gentle, retiring Society of Friends not long
ago sent out an appeal to editors requesting
them to give lees prominence to criino and
scandal, and otherwise to labor in the in
terests of pure journalism. From this w o in
fer that Schuylkill county Is not tho only
community that is suffering from tho "new"
journalism. For this much wo may be
thankful.
The editor of the Herald has made it n
rulo to ignore entirely tho personal attacks
of tho Coal ttreot publication, uudin pursuiug
this course we have been complimented by
tho good people of Shenandoah. lint in
justice to School Director T. R. L'd wards and
his friends, who appears to bo the spocial
target of the Coal street editor, wo will say
the gentleman has never written, dictated
nor inspired an article appearing in these
columns, and the aforesaid editor knew lie
was lying when lie made tho charge. We
mako this statement only injustice to Mr.
Edwards.
The question of increasing the indebted
ness of tho school district, which will ho
voted upon at the borough election on Tuoi
diiy, has been apparently overlooked, and
hence Is the subject of very little discussion
by the taxpayers. Every resident of the
borough, whether he owns property or not,
bus a direct interest iu the question. Tho
Finance Committee of tho School Board, in
another column of to-day's iuo, presents a
statement of tho financial, condition of tho
school district, and the reasons given for tho
increased indebtedness are such that cairy
conviction with them. Viewed from any
standpoint, it seems that consideration should

Many men engage in business with the
idea that advertising will bring them success;
and because those who have succeeded in
business, mainly through judicious use of
printers' ink, the generality of the people
have come to believe that it is true. But
great danger and frequent disaster result
from this idea, much the same as it does
when people have learned that a stimulent
is necessary to tone up the system, and they
take "medicine" as some take advertising
without knowing the good from the bad.
The result is sick men bad business. Adver
tising pays if you get it good ; If you get it
otherwise it is a useless expenditure of
money. The Ujcbald is the recognized
medium through which to reach the buyers
I n fact, there is none better. Advertisements
inserted in other publications ben is merely
a charitable donation without any idea of de
riving benefit therefrom. We publish "all
the news that's St to print," and hence reach
the buyers.
The recent destruction of thecapltol build

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common wafer glass witti
nrlnr and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling Indicates a diseased con
dition of the kidnoys. When urine stains
lincti It Is positive evidence of kidney
trouble. Too freqnoiit desire to urinate or
pain in the hack, is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There Is comfort in the knowledge so often
expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Itoot,
the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish
in relieving pain in the ltack, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of the urinary pas
sages. It corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain In passing it, or bad ell'icte fol
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
utght to urinate. The mild and the ex
traordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its wonder
ful enres of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists price fifty cents and
one dollar. For a sample bottle and pamph
let, both sent free by mail, mention Eveninq

Tours tn Florida.
No district in America presents, during the
Winterseason, so many varied attractions as
the State nf Florida. Besides its delightful
climate, which to one osinp'ng from the cold
and unhealthful changes ot the North seems
almost ethereal, it is pre-eminently a land of
sport and pleiisura, Along Its eleven hundred
miles of salt-water coast and in it twelve
Imjidred fresh-water lakes are fish of almost
every conceivable variety, from the migra
tory tribes common to Northern waters to the
tarpon, pompnno, iiud others of a more
tropical character. Nowhere in all our broad
land can the angler find a greater variety of
aanie or better sport.
Here also the most enthusiastic hunter
finds satiety. Deer, turkeys, bears, panthers,
and wild rate roam at large through the more
spar-ply settled regions, while birds of all
kinds may be found in abundance through
out the State. The more novel sport of al
ligator and manatee hunting may also be in
duleed in liv the more adventurous tourist.
With its matchless climate, its orange
groves, its rivers ana lakes, its boating and
bathing, its fishing ami hunting, and its
extensive forests, Florida meson Is unrivaled
attractions for the valetudinarian, tho lover
of nature, the spnrtamau and the explorer.

Tours to California.
California has been most fittingly termed
the "Italy of America." All tho delicious
lialm, tho cloudless sky, and the rich ver
dure of tho great European peninsula are
duplicated in this sunny land of the Pacific.
Iloru nature basks iu the sunshine of her own
beauty; and here she has established her
own sanitarium, where oternal spring in
spires everlasting youtlw With tlio suow-
mantlcd peaks of the Sierras upon the one
band, the calm Pacific with its soft breezes
upon tho other, and a veritable paradise of
flowers, fruits and plants between, man can
find and needs no lovelier land. To visit
such a country is a privilege, a blessing.
The Pennsylvania Itailroad Company,
recogiiizfiis the need of a more comfortable
sud pleasant way of crossing the continent,
inaugurated a series of annual tours to Cali
fornia, running a through train of Pullman
palace cars from New York to tlio Pacific
Coast, and stopping at tho principal points of
interett en route. The great popularity of
these tours demonstrates the wisdom of the
movement.
For tho season of 1807 three tours have
been arranged to leave New York, Philadel
phia, and Pittsburg, January 27, February
24, aud Mareh 27.
The first tour will ruu direct to San Diego
via St. Louis and the Santa Fe Route, and re
turn from San Francisco via Salt Lake City,
Denver, and Chicago, allowing five weeks in
California.
The second tour will run via the Mammoth
Cave and New Orleans to San Diego, stopping
at the "Crescent City" during the Mardl
Gras Carnival. This tour will return via
Salt Lake City, Denver, Omaha, and Chicago,
allowing four weeks in California.
The third tour will run via Chieago.Denver,
aud Salt Lake City, allowing passengers to re
turn by regular trains via different routes
within nlue months,
All of these tours, either going or return

Slan to Keep Bodies Tor n Time In a
Glass Vnnlt.
Mr. William Culver of Washington In
about to take stops to urge on the leglsla-
lures of the different states a measuro to
do away with any possibility of persons
being burled whllo in truneo. He nlso In
tends to embody n resolution for tho oreo
ilon of morgues in this country similar to
ones used in some of tho cities In Europe
nnd lias added an improvement of his own
by which I lie bodies may be preserved In a
natural stale Indefinitely,
He advocates tiie erection in every place
near a cemetery of n niorgnb in wlilau all
ladles will bo placed prior to burial. Tills
deadhouao Is to have a large room, whone
walls nro of glass, so that nil within oan
ho seen by an attendant, who will be sta
tioned in nn adjoining npartmont. Here
all oorpsos will bo placed with a string .
attached to tho wrist, so that any move
ment will ring n boll in the guard's room. I
They will lie hero until decomposition has I
proved that It is impossible that any life
oxlsta. Disinfectants could keep the place t
perfectly healthy. A morgue similar to
this is now in use in someBuropean towns.
Another idea of Mr. Cnlver Is tbnt the
liodles lie desiccated. It is n well known
lacr, Hint in ino ury air oi
never spoils, but keeps sweet Indefinitely
avan It. ivnniiriar. nlln.nrn. n fnir. Wntnll
even in the wannest climate, o fact which
is borne out by the statements of traveler
in our own deserts of the west Mr. Calver
would so arrange tliat when the proof of
death has settled forever any question of
life existing tho corpse be placed Inn large
chamber and subject for days to a very dry
and Intense heat. If the process is slow,
the result will be that the body will shriv
el, but It will preserve Its natural look as
long ns tho nlr remains dry. By arranging
tho dead in gloss oolflns, through which
dry, hot, clean air constantly flows, tho
men who dlo today oan be kept for years.
