Debility and Emacfation@
Both result from the lack of ability to con
vert the food into nutriment. How .neces-
sary, then, for those suffering from these
alarming symptoms to immediately resort
to remedy that will strengthen the stom-
ach and digestive organs. For, as soon as
this desirable object has been accomplished
the health improves, and the patient re-
sumes his usual personal appearance. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters have attained a
worldwide popularity in such cases, and
have been proven the estand safest means
of removing constipation, toning the Stcm-
ach, giving energy to the liver, and felievr
ing every symptom of nervousness and de-
preston Of spirits. Its cheering and bene-
fetal effects are highly spoken of by thou
sands, who owe to it their restoration to
health No restorative in the annals of
medicine has attained the same popularity
in the short space of time il has been before
the public or has won the high endorse
ments according to this excellent tonic.
Many other preparations, purPorting to be
eorrectivos and restoratives, have been in
troduced, and have persisted one by one
while the popularity Of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters continues to increase, and is now
recognized as standard household medi-
ciae. The success which attends the use
of the Bitters evinces at once its virtues in
all cases of debility and disease of the stom-
ach. Certificates, almoat without number,
have been published, attesting its truly
miraculous power In removing those painful
and fearful diseases. And at this time it
seems idle to do more than call attention
to the great remedy of the age, IN order to
awaken public attention to its excellence.
1t is the only preparation or the kind that is
reliable in all cases, and it is therefore wor-
thy Of the consideration Of the afflicted.

SYNAGOGUE DEDICATIoN.-Tho ceremonies at

took place on Friday, Sept. Sth. The procession
formed in front of the residence of Mr.. Jacob

net Band Color Bcarers-David Meyer and
Nathan Block; Bearers of Keys-Misses Maicr,
Eyer and Goldsmith Little girls with lights
Misses Cohen and Wiener The Rabbis The
Committee; The choir Twelve boys represent
ing the twelve tribes OF Israel The invited guests
generally. The attendance of citizens was quite
large, and the character of the service was beau
tlfnl In order to prevent the crowding and con-
fusion generally attendant upon such occasions
the prccaution had rocn taken, to issue tickets
for only such number as could be accommodate
ted within the building. The Synagogue is small
but very handsome edlcc. The didicatory
sermon Wa. deliyerd by Rev. DR.. Jastrow, of
Phiiada., nd although he experienced some em-
barrassr Mt in making himself understood in
the En-? sh language, yet the sermon was a re-
markal C production, and the liberal sentiment
expressed was praseworthy. To their credit it
may be said that the Jews have built this neat
and pretty house of worship, without soliciting
a single contribution from members of other de-
minations.-DaiV;HG An,ericGn.

THE AGRICULTURAL FAIR.-Thc managers of
the Agricultural Fair at this place, are actively
engaged in pushing the work forward on the
gron ds Ne to have it completed by the fir {
day of opening. One of the main sheds for the
exhibition of articles has been erected, together
with the Judges stand, and other buildings ne
ccssary.
The expenses attending the preparing of tho
grounds for the Fair have been very heavy on
| account of having to prepare Il new race course,
and erecting new buildings. We hope that in
view of the spirited efforts that have been made
by the managers that the citizens of the county
generally will take measures to make the Fair a
success. Let our rural friends MOI only prepare
TO visit the Fair, but exert themselves to mako it
attractive by preparing to exhibit srock, vcgcta-
blcs, or whatever product they may have of su-
pcrior quality. The ladies should manifest an
interest by preparing some of their handiworl
for exhibition, and our mechanics and manufac-
turcrs by placing on exhibition such articles as
display their ingenuity and skill. The ground is
beautifully located, surrounded by the most mag
nilcent scenery in Pennsylvania. 80 all who
will pay it ii visit will be Goubly paid in viewing
| natures handiworli ms well as the best skill aud
ingenuity of our noble mechanics.
