STAMP Your GooDs.-1t is said that
not only druggists have lately been
brushing up and overhauling their
stocks to see what articles require
stamping, but that grocery men have
also discovered that they have not been
complying with the law in this respect,
For the information of the latter class
who desire to fully cover the law, we
publish the following from the latest
schedule of stamp duties:

every can, bottle or other single package,

mustard, jams or jellies, contained
therein, and packed or sealed, made,

tional part thereof, lc.

on. A. NJ. BALL.-The preparations
for the ball to be given by Ben Franklin

ments are in the hands OF a committee o.
gentlemen Of great experience and pop
ularity. and the prospect is that the

TRUTH WILL PREvAlL.-The contln-
ual rush to the store of Messrs EN-
sheimer & Blum is conclusive evidence
that the goods offered at their closing
out sale must prove beyond the expec-
tations of their visitors. The firm will
offer this morning as specially large
variety of all wool Cloth Skirts from
$3.50 upwards; a splendid stock OF
Striped and Plain Shawls; five sets OF
$4,000 Furs at $500. Velvet and
Braided Sacks, Flannels and all kinds
of wooden goods, which they will sell

WHERE to buy the handsomest,
cheapest and best Organs has been
answered by many who have purchased
the Eureka Organs, either on the rental
plan or otherwise, at Shelbs Music
Store. They have Book Closets, Lamp
Brackets and many other artistic con
venieuces, beautiful tone and great
durability, besides being sold at far
lower prices than any other organs.
Go to Sheibs Monroe street, and see
them.

THE FLEXIBLE SroNE.-Mr. Holiday
informs us that crowds OF people still
visit the planning mill to see 1.-THE tiexl-
BILE stone" and he estimates the number
who have been there at not less than
fifteen hundred. The stone is really a
great curiosity and has puzzled all who
have examined it. 1t was originally q
slab of white marble used as a hearth
stone in the Female Seminary building
at Moundsville which was burned about
three years ago. 1t remained buried
in the rubbish until recently when 1t
| was excavated and brought to this city
When leaning against the wall at an
angle Of As degrees, it bends down In
the middle about one inch from a
straight line. 1t bends either way,
forward or backward, and when shaken
by the corner will culver with a wave
like movement. The structure Of the
stone seems somewhat soItened by the
fire and from broken edge it may be
rubbed away something like hard NOR
tar. We don't know that the expert.
ment of dipping it in water was. ever
tried, but we think it likely that itwould
be soltened still further by that process.
At all events, it still remains quite a
wonder and we heard on yesterday that
Mr.. Holiday had been offered $500 for
it by some enthusiastic Snowman, but
refused to sell it for that purpose.

Visiting Schools.

Perhaps there is no duty so generally,
if not entirely neglected by parents
and guardians as to visit the schools
where their children attend.
Every man, woman and child have,
and should manifest a direct and per-
sonal interestin the progress and pros
perity of our public schools; and should
do all in their power to make them
efficient. Parents ought to know
perfectly the standing and condition Of
the school where their children attend.
How can such knowledge be gained
except by frequent and personal visits
to the school room? Yes. good people,
visit the public schools. From personal
experience, we know you will always
be welcome. We urge you to try the
experiment and witness how much
sunshine and cheerfulness your presence
will bring to both teacher and pupils.
Visit the schools to witness the deport
ment of your children and listen to their
Rotations. Ifgood, it will awaken in
your heart sensations that have long
slumbered. If bad, you can by your
kind offices materially assist and Tighten
the burden of teacher.
How many, many teachers are o,day
anxious to have parents visit their
schools that they may know the truth
of their efforts and faithfulness. Some
of our schools may not rate as high as
desired, but still it is believed by the
writer that the Superintendent, Prln'
cipal and all the teachers in the city
are faithful, and, under all the clrcum-
stances, doing the best they can.
Parents and guardians, the public
schools are yours Will you not then
visit them2 The safety OF the family,
the church and the nation, institutions
that God hath given US, rests on the
thorough education of all the children.
Do not leave all this important work
for school officers and teachers, but let
us each do our respective duty, trusting
that God will 30 guide and bless us that
the children for many generations Will
perpetuate and visit the schools.

THE Observation-Disclosures can
boast Of her many fine hotels, but none
are better fitted up or more tastefully
furnished than the Washington. There
is an air Of neatuess and coziness which
strikes the guest as soon as he enters
within the walls ofthe house, while the
rooms are elegantly furnished and the
tables supplied with every luxury the
market affords. The veteran in the
hotel business, Mr.. Henry Krogman, is
superintendent Of the hotel, who, to
gether with Messrs. John Potter, E. L.
Meter and R. II. Thompson, fill the
office and anticipate the wants OF guests.

dred and sixty-fve prominent English
physicians and surgeons have signed a
memorandum certifying that alcohol in
whatever form should be prescribed
with as much care as any powerful
drug, and that the directions for its use
should be 30 framed as rot to be inter,
preted as q sanction for excess or for
the continuance OF its use when the
occasion had passed. The signers ex-
press the firm conviction that the large
amount Of drinking Of alcoholic liquors
in Great Britain is one of the most
hurtful evils Of the day, destroying, more
than anything else, the health, happi-
ness and welfare Of the working classes.
