ONE OF THE VERY BEST of the new
hotels in Philadelphia is the Grand Expo
sition Hotel, corner Lancaster and
Girard avenues, location very near
the centennial grounds, and yet in a
very pleasant and quiet neighborhood. 1t
is supplied with all improved appliances,
such, for instance, es those admirable
earth commodes made by the
Wakefield Co., of n. Y. Hence danger
from malarie, from sewer gas, etc, is
much reouced. During the hot months,
such points are of great note. The hotel
also has most efficient manager in NJ.

THE MERRY DAYS OF OLD.-In reading
of the middle ages one is struck by the
the life actors Of those times. The suits
of armor worn, would certainly indicate
than is developed by men in these latter
days. What wrought the change? Men
lived in the merry days more outdoor
life than this advanced civilization of ours
can afford. There is greater consumption
of brain matter,and that increased demand
on mental and physical power necessitates
the use of a pure vegetable, stimulant
tonic, such as the Home Stomach Bltters.

Repudiates it's Own Administration.
The Rock Island Uaasoa of this morning
repudiates the Republican administration.
Under the heading, Slaughter of the
Faithful, it says:
I'm the whole course of mis- official career
President Grant has put no deeper stain
upon his administration nor offered a
greater and more defiant insult to the
honest masses of the country than when
he began the work of driving out of his
cabinet its ablest members, the only ones
thoroughly committed to reform and the
only ones who still gave his administration
degree of standing and character with
the people. He has himself furnished the
proof for the most damaging charges and
suspicious against his administration; he
has shaken the confidence Of his warmest
friends among the people, and has paved
the way for an exit from the White House
as inglorious as his entry was glorious.
II And this from president
pledged to civil service reform and to an
honest administration of the government.
by the platform on which he was elected.
We congratulate the amiable and gen.
| tlemanly proprietors of that paper or
arriving at a conclusion which the vast
majority of the people arrived at long ago.

will manage things better than the Repub
licans have done.
