If such HhoWH v 111 come to l'eyuoldsvilie, it would be a pood act for tho town council to pass an ordinance to forbid tho posting of such "loud" announee mentti as these Hhowg usually have spread on tho hill boards. The crusade against women wearing hats and bonnets in theatres has reach ed Pennsylvania. A theatre hat bill was Introduced Into tho house last week making it unlawful for any owner or mauuger of any theatre or public build ing where entertainments are hold, to which an admission fee is charged, to permit uny person to wear any hat, bonnet or covering for tho head, which will obstruct the view of ttie perform ance or entertainment. The theatrical manager is authorised to compel tho the roniovul of tho hat or eject tho person from the building. Tho bill makes it obligatory also for theatre managers to provide a toilet room in which ladies can leave their head cover ings. Senator James G. Mitchell, of this county, introduced two Important bills in the senate last week, Tho ono authorizes tho governor to appoint a . commission to adopt or edit and compile a uniform series of text books, to bo used in the public schools, and provid ing the method of acquiring tho right to Issue and sell the same, and the manner and time of introducing the same in said schools and regulating the printing and publishing thoreof. Tho other bill authorizes and directs oounty commissioners to take, maintain and ass -mo control of township bridges over thirty feet In length, providing for the rebuilding of any bridges which may be destroyed, and the building of new bridges. If all the liars had died as soon after prevaricating as did Ananias and Sap phi ra, some, two thousand years ago, there would not be such a vast multitude meandering this .mundane sphere as there are to-day who handle the truth carelessly. And some of this class of people to-day will be found making the christian profession, as did Anaufas and his wire. The sage of the Punxsutaw ney Spirit says: "One of the greatest vices of this age is lying. It is not con fined to business and professional affairs, but finds its way into politics. Lies have been told on the stump, right in the midst of an exciting political cam paign. Mirablle diotu! It Is not an uncommon thing, In fact, to resort to downright deception in order to secure votes. Legislation is often promised which the promisor knows would be not only Impracticable but vlolous, beoauso he has not the courage to tell the truth. Then, when the time comes for the fulfillment of these prom ises, the people to whom they were made oonclude that there are some aw ful liar abroad. Lying does not pay In the long run. It Is much more expen sive in the round-up than the truth. A lie will never fit in properly. It is a troublesome thing to have round, for it will invariably come home to roost."

It Is mind that is to come off victorious and It is for pivetsely that reason that force is the woi'i-i of all weaMiiis.

When tho limit of sharp attention and lively interest is readied, you have reached tho limit of profitable study.

A Hohinson Gem. Now It is useless to read more than can ho assimilated. Rarely is a mind to bo found capable of volumlous reading. A few book of tho very best, patiently read and thorough ly absorbed, arc more helpful than cords of books read In a trivial manner and for unworthy reasons. It wcro worth more to have originated ono thought than to have read ten books that suggest nono. In fact If a wholesome balance of observation and thinking Is not maintained one would bettor not road ut all, but pause a while and find out what he thinks. Whon we earnest ly wish to know tho truth, though it shatter our most cherished prejudices, wo are in condition to make observa tions. Those in time should crystallizo Into facts, which in their turn yield new data for a more extended outlook. As it is given to no one to see the whole, man must be contented If ho but get wider and wider glimpses which show In a truer proportion and relation things fairly In sight. So we may approach cultivation, which is not an acquisition that we can store away In youth with our diplomas, but a state of mind in which thought can germinate and grow. He is tho most cultivated who has the deepest knowledge of nature's laws, the perception of the meanings of the universe, and can see all things In their truest relative proportion. The Citizen's Gem. Pupils should be taught to realize that they owe a debt to the State for their education, which they are bound in honor to repay by, at the first, diligently learning, and, sub sequently, well and faithfully perform ing their clvlo duties.

That after discharging the duty above mentioned. In accordance with the directions of the Court, we Ivur leave to report that wo have examined the county jail and find that the condition of the same Is net good. Tin) plumbing throughout tho jail is in poor condition. f'Vers on first or lower row of cells do not work properly: water-closets and cells also t 1 renovating. On investigating tlie e.-eupe i f .li'M'ph Alello. the nnilllerer, we round that the jail Is not as secure us it should be.

We ulso liiul that sou e of the bins aie snweil oft', nnd we siie;-j.'.-st tlr.t they be examined by an ex pert ami if found lo he of poor quality that in w bars b" procured. We siig-ge.-it also that the sheriff's rooms in the jail building need some repairing done to tlm plastering, paper and plumbing: also the sherill's olllee needs some ncv furniture, a desk with more room for filing pain rs and more chairs. We also examined the Court house and recom mend the following repairs; a new floor in lower jury room; the water closet ad joining said room needs immediate re pairs; we also recommend that a water cloet for the use of ladles attending Court be put In where most convenient: that the plaster ill several places needs repairing. In the investigation of tho escape of Ihe prisoner, Joseph Aelllo, we find nothing to censure the sheriff or other county ollieers, but we recom mend that, the method for caring for prisoners suggested by the Court 111 your charge to us be followed by tho sheriff. The attention of the jury was also called by one of their number to the attempt on the part of N. U.

Wo desire to thank tho Honorable the Judge of the Court, District Attor ney, lYothouotary, Sheriff, Register and Recorder, Commissioners, Tip stulYs uud (Joust uhle lii illhurt, who had churgo of the Grand Jury, for courtesies shown us during our session.
