FOR THE BLOOD IS THE LIFE See
Deuteronomy, xii:23. The blood being the
source from which the system il built up,

that il should he kept pure. III it contain
vile, fostering poison., all organic functions
become enfeebied. Settling upon important
organs, as the lungs. liver, and kidneys, the
effect is most disastrous. Hence il behooves
all tn keep their blood in perfectly healthy
condition, aud more especially does this a p
ply at this particular season of the year than
At any other. No matter what the exciting
caus. may be, the real cause of a large pro-
portion OF all disease. is bad blood. Now
DIR. Pierce does not wish to place his Golden
Medical Discovery in the ca aiogue of quAc X
patent nostruns, by recommending il TO
cure every disease, nor does he recommend
it; the contrary, there are hundreds of
diseases that he acknowledges it will not
cure; but what he does claim is this that
there is but one form OF blood disease that it
will not curc, and that disease is cancer. He
does not recommend his Discovery for that
disease, yet he knows it to be the most
searching blood cleanser yet discovered, and
that it will free the blood and system OF all
other blood -pnisoGs, be they animal, vegeta-
BILE, or mineral. The Golden Medical Dis
covery is ,Cd1runtcd by him 20 cure the worst
forms of Skin Diseases, as all forms of
Blo,ches, Pi,nples, and Eruptions; also all
Glandular Swcllings, and the worst form of
Scrofulous aud liberated Sore. Of the Neck,

A rather ludicrous mishap occurred to
Commissioner McClellan6 on Wednesday
evening last, while on his way from this
place to his home in Johnstown. Presuming
that every thing was lovely, the gentleman
named got on the rear car of the Mail west
at Cresson, and comfortably eusconcing him
self in one of the cushioned seats very con-
tentedly awaited the departure of the train.
In due time the train did move off, but much
to the chagrin of Mr.. McClellaud the rear car
didn't move with it. In fact, to cut long
story short, the car in which our friend had
seated himself contained a party OF pleasure
seekers from Altoona on their way to this 9
place, and the detaching of said car from this
Mail for the purpose of coupling it on to our
Branch train is what did the mischief. Ac-
cepting the situation with his usual equi-
nimity. Mr.. McClelland returned to town
and took fresh start for home next morn
ing.
To insure the success of the FREEMAN
and Justify Us in continuing az its editor
and publisher it is imperatively necessary
that cash in advance from all it's patrons
should henchforth be tho rule and not the
exception, ard unless there is a very general
disposition manifested to comply with these
terms we will certainly have TO pull up
stakes and seek our fortunes elsewhere.
We are vain enough to believe that our pa
per is worthy of a generous support, and we
know from long experience that the only
way to support a newspaper properly is
to pay for it in advance. We want no
body to pay us now for the coming year.
but we do want everybody who wishes
us to remain to signify within the next
six weeks that they are willing to toe the
mark. We are heartily sick of the credit
business, and unless we can establish the
cash in advance system we have fully made
up our mind to establish ourself elsewhere
$50 you pays your money Cor otherwise)

and he kept open for a week or two more.
The ladies and gentleman who have been

men named appeal to their friends far and
near to send them any article that will add
70 the display or contrihute even. the small
est mite towards the object aimed at, which
is indeed a very worthy and r very urgent
one just now. To our own friends through
out This and other counties We make a per-
sonal appeal to the same end, aud shall give
proper credit through these columns 10 all
who desire it. whether the contributions are
sent 10 ourself or to any one else interested
in the enterprise.
One of the most attractive features Of the
fair will be n grand shooting tournament
during the holidays, open TO all the world
"and the rest of mankind, the prizes for
which will consist of n fat hog, barrel of
flour, and various other valuable articles.
Marksmen everywhere are respectfully in
vited TO grid up their loins and prepare for
the contest. a Martha Washington tea
party, grand oyster supper. and other de-
lightful festivities at Belmont, are also on
the programme for the holidays; and taking
it all in all, there can be no: doubt but what
the fair throughout will be the most en- joy
able ever held in this place.
