Tim annual report of l'rovost
Charles C. Harrison to tho trustees
of the University of Pennsylvania,
for the year ending August 81, 1807,
has just been published, and the
HmtAl.li has been favored with a
copy. It dhows clearly that the year
was onu of advancement, extentioii
and general improvement in nearly
every department. The Provost
carefully outlines the needs of each
department, offers many htigcetions
to the Guard ; eo'-iiiin-ntiiij; especially
upon the fa"t that during the year
the university -rave aid to Wit students
involving over 150,000.
Just at this time, when the holiday
rush has become a ineinorv and
spring trade is yet an anticipation
many merchants are apt to permit a
relaxation of vigor in the conduct of
their advertising campaigns This
however, is poor policy. lletween
season advertising properlv con
ducted is of vast importance to every
branch of trade, for it is then that
the purchasing public lays its plans
for future operations. To wait until
the harvest-time arrives before sew
ing the seed is not productive of
Iar;e crops, and the merchant who
waits until the rush commences be
fore advertising should not feel dis
appcinted if his wiser competitor
geti the bulk of trade.
TriK Philadelphia Press is author
ity for the statement that Congress
man Ilruinin has entered into an
agreement with Senator Quay to se
cure the former's reiiomiuatiou for
Congress, and in return Mr. liniinin
lias pledged the delegates from this
county to the state convention to the
Senior Senator. To accomplish this
the gentleman from Mincrsville will
become a quasi-candidatu for Gov
ernor, and in that way expects that
the Schuylkill delegates will bo in
structed for himself and thus lie in a
position to throw the delegation to
whoevor Quay may demand. U is
safe to guy that Mr. Hriimm will
realize that the stutesman from
Uoavor cannot dictate the Congres
sional nomination in this county, and
that if it bo true, us tho Press inti
mates, that Quay has entered into
snoh a ieal it is nine chances to one
that the delegates from Schuylkill
will be anti-Quay. Stranger things
have happened.

The orKnnlgatlon of the Live Stock as
sociation of the United States was com
pleted by the selection of an exceiithe
committee. The other cattle centers of
the country, in consideration of the
splendid effoits of Denver In making
the present convention a success,
waived their claims upon next year's

that it should asrain come to Denver.

IT IS EASY TO TELL.
People who fail to look after their health
are like the carpenter who neglects lo sharpen
his tools. People are not apt lo get anxious
about their health soon enough. If jou are
"not quite well" or "half sick" have you
ever thought that your Kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness ?
It is easy to tell by setting aside your urine
for twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is
evidence of kidney trcuhlc. Too fieiment
desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull
ache in the back Is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
There is satitfaction in knowing that the
great remedy Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Moot, ful
fills every well in relieving weak or diseased
kidneys anil all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp-Koot give
new life and activity to the kidneys the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts
as a tonic for the entire constitution. If you
need a medicine take Swainp-Koot it cutes.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents mid one
dollar, or by sending your address and the
name of this laper to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,
Hingliamtdh, N. Y., you may have a sample
bottle of this great discovery sent to you free

Frederick, and the Gorman princes, in
cluding the ktngs of Saxony and AVur

CATARRlfoinrTlE STOMACH.
A PLEASANT SIMP1.K, HUT SAFK UFFKCrtlAL
cuiin roit it.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been con
sldeicd the next thing to incurable,
Tho usual symptoms aro a full or bloating
sensation after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery-risings, a forma
tion of gases, causing pressuro on tho heart
and lungs and dllllcult breathing ; headache,
fickle appetite, nervousness and a geuoral
played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul tasto
coated tongue, and If tho
stomach could he scn it
in tho mouth,
interior uf tho
would show a
slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common aud obstinate
trouble is found In a treatment which causes
tho food Who readily, thoroughly digested
before it has time to ferment and irritato thu
dclieuto mucous surfaces of the stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy digestion
is the one necessary thing to do, and when
normal digestion Is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Ilurlausnu tho safest and
best treatment is to use after each meal it
Uhlet, composed of Diastase, Aseptic l'cp
in, a littlo Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids
Theso tablets can now be found at all drug
stores uuder the naino of Stuart's Dyspopsia
Tablets, and, uot being a patent medicine
can be used with porfect safety audssiuranco
that healthy appetite and thorough digestion
will follow their regular use after meals.
Mr. N.J. lloohcr, of U710 Dearborn St.,
Chicago, III,, writes : "Catarrh is a local
condition lusultiug from a neglected cold lu
the head, whereby thu lining membrane of
the nose hecomos lullamed and the poisonous
dischargo therefrom, passing huckward Into
tho throat, reaches tho stomach, thus pro
ducing catarrh of the stomach, Medical au
thorities preserlbtd fur mo for three years for
catarrh of tho stomach without cure, hut to
day I am the happiest of men after using
only one box uf Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I
cannot Ibid appropriate words lo express my

I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest
from their use.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is tho safest

LEITER OWNS ALL THE WHEAT.
Ills I'lii'tnei' Deolures This Country
Will Need All oil llllllll.
Chicago, Jan. 28. "Basing our esti
mates on the government figures, we
think we now own every bushel ef stir
Iilus wheat In thin country." George
13. French, the active manager of the
j big wheat combination, was speaking
for himself and Joseph Letter, who is
the visible head of the "clique."
He said: "According to the m'St re
liable estimates obtainable we thlni
there is not more than 15,000,000 bushels
of wheat unaccounted for. Scattered
over different sections of the country
wo have holdings of at least that
amount, so wo can safely claim to have
possession of all the surplus."
Added to the government estimate oi
530,000,000 bushels for last year's crop
the 30,000 btidiels carried over from the
crop of 189C gave Mr. French his basis
of 500,000,000 bushels as the original
supply.
"The situation Is simply this," de
clared Mr. French, "everything goes to
show that this country has sent abroad
more than its exportable surplus. We
think wheat has been overexporlcd to
the extent of 15,000,000 or 20.000,000 bush
els, and that the United States is the
country In which to sell."
