The Sure Road to Fame and Fortune.

We take ii to be demonslrable fact that
no discovery or invention worth advertising
at all can be advertised too extensively. The
man whose mental vision is darkened by mi
serly instincts, whose soul lies in his breeches
pocket, cannot understand this {; and if such
an one in his mole-like groupings, should chance
upon some new and useful truth, he would be
afraid to take the sure road to celebriety, which
lies through the columns Of the press, lest he
should be ruined by the tolls. What con-
trast does the brilliant and beneficial career
of Prof, Holloway present to the blind stupid
iiy of such a man. Having perfected, after
many years of laborious research and expert
ment, two remedies which he knew, with pos
tive certainty, were absolute specifics for
nearly every internal and external malady in-
ciden, 10 humanity, he determined at once 10
give them wider publicity than any other
medicine had ever attained. HIS motive was
noble and benevolent. He feltthat he possess
sed the power of mitigating suffering and wa
ging successful war with diseases heretofore
unconquerable, and like good champion he
feeressly entered the lists. Had he been mo-
we'd by avarice instead of philanthropy he
could not have taken surer or shorter path
10 wealth. The plan of advertising prepara-
tions. which actually accomplished all that en-
pirlcism had ever promised or medical oItho-
dOxy attempted, Of course proved self rsnuncrave lie
flooded nation with his advertisements. he perra
ded the whole world with his medicines, and the world
repaid him with shower Of gold weveriy believe that
there is possible Of disseminating information
among that he has not adopted giving notoriety
TO his Pills and Ointment.
The Hon Mahon Dickinson. Of New Jersey satir
ical!y senei the poles to big fagsta and have lit
tie doubt that if they agsafs Holloway would
trive TO hav. bit OF bunting nailed to each with his
name and address inscribed upon it. In fact such is tho
enterprise and irrepresib- energy Of tn. that
should scarcely be surprised 10 hear of the virtues OF his
medicines being inscribed the desert sands OF mid
Africa traced in the eternal that the peaks
Of the Andes. His central Office for this hemisphere Che
maps out his advertising ground by bempheres so Mai
den Lane has only been established about
probably there five hundred adults Of

statistical fact verified by the books OF the

The Apporsionment Bill fingers. One
passed in Senate adds Perry to our Ssna-
torial District: our increase of population
not having kept pace with the rest of the
State, another county is therefore added.
Juniasa and Snyder are put in one district
with one Representative, and Union and
Lycoming is one district with two Repre-.
seutatives. Under the proposed amend.
ments to the Constitution, Union will be
entitled to one Member in her own right ;
and would prefer to enjoy it now, and not
be linked Unnecessarily with a county
stretching away so or 60 miles, with which
she has no business or other interest. Let
every county be independent as possible.
