There are different brands of that article. Ragouts have boen quite fash ionable in town this winter.but there should be a limit as to their public recognition, and approval, j Up in Dingman township, the voters apparently had an iconoclas tic temperament, at all events thoy smashod Lon's record as supervisor. The Borough Democrats seems ti bo a little shy in making nomina tions In some respects they have set an excellent example to be shunned. Gentlemen, who are in office as reformers should be exceedingly obliged to friends for valuable as sistanoo in endeavors to aid in re forming them. If the voters of the Borough do their plain duty to themsolves anil the community election day, they will jab ft part of the Democratic ticket with a very Bharp stick. Well, there are people who will not take Mrs. Peachum's advice to her daughter Polly to be " some what nice," as to the number of days necessarily spout, eto. Verily they have their reward. This propensity is said to be ad verse to economy, for the reason that in the pant fifteen years man roads in a certain locality have be come overgrown and so not neces g.iry to work thereby possibly dimin ishing the necessity for a road tax. If they are now reopenod, the bur den will be onerous. Don't Da These. Don't staal another min's gojd name, even if your own is won: out. Don't raise your hand against your husband broomhandles are plenty. Don't pattern after the busy little bee. It's the other follow that eats the honey Don't monopolize one color in your make up. A ruby nose spoils the effoct of ruby lips. Don't bet with your wife, unless you are prepared to lose, whether you win or not. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Sail him for wh:vt you can got and let the other follow look.-. Don't judge a man by the clothes he wears. Form y.jur opinion from the wearing apparel of the wife. Don't bo a clam. If you most Dj anything of that kind, be a turtle. Then you will havo. a little snap about you. Don't take a bull by the horns. Take him by the tail and then you cau lot go without getting some 'one to help you. FRONTIER FORTS. A Shnrt Account of Port Hjndshaw and Surrounding. In 1893 an act was passed autho rl.ing the Governor to appoint five persons to examine and report to the Legislature, as to the advisability of erecting suitable tablets marking the forts erected as a dofensj against the Indians by the early settlors of the Commonwealth. Pursuant to this Act Governor Pat tison appointed commissioners who allotted to each a portion of the State, and this section was confided to Henry M. M. Richards of Read ing. The line of forts between the Susquehanna find Delaware rivers was mainly along the Blue Mountain beginning at Ilarrishurg, which was Fort Harris, and extending in a North Easterly direction to the Delaware above the Water Gap. This line practically marked the limit of actual settlement of the white men and it was along this range that the most direful effects were felt. The lortajstond from ten to fifteen miles apart and were com posed of a stockade of hoavy planks inclosing a space of ground more or less extensive, on which were built blockhouses piercod with loopholes for musketry and occupied as quarters by the soldiers and refugee settlers. None were located within the borders of what is "how Pike county, but one, Fort Hyndshaw, was so near that some account of it taken from the report of the com mission will interest our resident readers. It was situated on the bluff to the eastward of where the Maple Grove House stands in Mon roe county and about 400 foot dis- tant therefrom, and about milo from Bushkill, and was about 70 feet square. It is not known when it was built, but it was doubtless erected by Capt. Van Etten ai.d his Lieutenant, James Hyndshaw no! long after they took charge of the vicinity, which was in 1750. Jan. 12 in that year Benjamin Franklin is sued a letter of instructions from Bethlehem to Capt. Van Etten of the township of upper Smithflold in which he directed him 1 to raise a company of 30 able men to protect the inhabitants of the township while threshing, 2 to post the men, 8 at his own house, 8 at Ilenshaws, 6 with a sergeant" at Fishock, and 6 at or near Henry Cortraohts,and to settle signals. ' 3 every man to be engaged for one month and to furnish his own arms and blankets for which he was to be allowed a dollnr, 4 to furnish the men with provisions, 5 to koep a diary of all transactions, 6 to ac quaint the men that if any.time in ranging, or when attacked by the enemy and they kill any forty dol lars will be allowed and paid for each scalp of an Iudian enemy, 7 to take care of the stores, 8 to send ad vices or any information of the de signs of the enemy, 9 to keep good ordor among the men and prevent drunkeness and immoralities and nt allow them to injure the in habitants, 10 to take good care the men koep their arms clean and their powder dry and 11 to make up a monthly muster roll. The obligation dated the same day was signed by nearly fifty soldiers and is a rather remarkable docu ment. It reads "We, the subscrib ers, do heroby engage to serve as soldiers in his majesty's sorrice un der the command of Captain John Van Jetton, for the Bpaco of one month, and whoever of us shall get drunk, desert or prove cowardly in time of action or disobodiont to our officers, shall forfeit his pay : this agreement we make in consideration of being allowed at the rate of six dollars per month wages, one dollar for the use of a gun and blanket, to each man who shall furnish himself with them, and the provisions and rum mentioned in a papor hereunto annexed. (Continued in next issuo.) Did Not Da Minolta. A little town near Providence boasts a church whose pastor, be sides boing an eloquent preacher, is a man of stalwart proportions. At one of his evening prayer meetings the services were disturbed by two young men, who audibly scoffed at everything they saw or heard Finally the pastor remonstrated with them on their behavior, and asked them why they attended the meeting. "We came expecting' to see mira cles performed," impudently replied one of the rascals. Leaving t o desk and walK'ng quietly down the aisle, the pastor seized one after the other by the collar, and, as they disappeared out of the door, re marked : "We don t perform mira cles here, but we do cast out devils.'

Although Senator Hnnna recover ed from the grip, ho never once lost his grip. It is r nthoritatively stated that Mr. Bryan has not cancelled his sub scription to the New York Journal. ' It is a fact that our poor Uncle Dick Bland, of Missouri, has again re-introduced in the House his for lorn little bill for free silver. Japan still adheres to the gold standard, notwithstanding tho re- ent effjrti of 8):ivfcjr4 Mutlj, Dubois, and Pettigrew to reclaim her. The sockless Simpson declares that he will never give up Mr. Bry an, no, never, not if all the New Vork Journals in the country coldly throw aside the ex-candidate. Mr. Bryan's remark that what he wants "more than anything else is a good rest" is heartily ngreed to by the remaining citizens of the United States in some quiet, secluded spot, Mr. Bryan. There is no longer any shadow of doubt as to tho President's intention to stand by the declarations of the St. Louis platform in their broadest and must comprehensive sense as regards international bimetallism Democratic free-traders who claimed that the enactment of tho Dingley law would rain our market abroad are not saying anything about the official figures showing the exports of 1897 to have boon the largest in the history of the country Th6 Populist Convention recently held in St. Louis vehemently de clared against further fusion with Democrats. Tho leaders attributed all the confusion and loss of strength during the past two years to the on tangling alliance entered into with the Democrats. The leaders declared absolutely against any further com binations of the sort. It is amusing to hear Mr. Bryan talk about giving the American peo ple an American financial system, supposedly a system looking to tho equal use of both gold and silvor.and then see him go to Mexico and bring back glowing accounts of the Mexi can system, under whose operation no coin but silver is seen or used from one year's end to the other. Of course tho calamity howlers who still claim that the times are as hard as over take no apparent amount of the fact that there were 1,737 loss business failures in 1897 than in 1896, and that the aggregate value of tho failures for 1897 was $72,000,000 less than 1898. Calam ity howlors never do take any no count of such unimportant figures as these. "Parson," said the moan man, "times air hard aud groceries high, but sich as it is yer welcome will yer ax a blessing?" "I will," said the Parson and ho did as follows : "Lord make us thank ful for what we are about to receive, and givo your servant strength to get home in time for dinner." FOR SALE.
