DELAYS ARE DANGEROUs.-1fthis

DELAYS ARE DANGEROUS.-Ifth this
axiom is true respecting the ordinary affairs
of life, still more obviously so as regards the
exigencies Of approaching disease Undues-
tonably! Yet how many neglect to pFactf-
cally recognize this plain truth when health
is in the balance. Of the many premonitorv
symptoms of disease, a hacking cough is the
most prophetic of peril. Arrest it at the out
set with DR.. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial
and so avoid Consumption, Bronchitis, IN
fiammatiOn of the Lungs, Coughs Colds, and
indeed, ala affections of the RespitOry Organs
are entirely cured by this sovereign remedy
which also eradioates Dyspepsia, Gravel
Piles, Nervous Debility, Torpidity of the Liv-
er, Urinary Difficulties, Constipation, Palpi-
tatiOn OF the Heart, Scrofulous Affections, and
the infirmities peculiar to the gentler sex.
The Cordial derives its virtues from the veg
etable kingdom, infinitely to be preferred,
both an account of its superior efficacy and
freedom from nauseOus and injurious proper
ties to the Off1cinal drugs so often admins
tered with no other effect than TO offend the
palate and disorder the stomach. The Pine
Tree Tar Cordial can always be relied on to
do what is claimed for it. Sold by all drug
gists. Principal Depot No. GIG Filbert Street,

Shop Lifting.

Last Monday afternoon a woman entered
the store of Collins Bros. while the Junior
member, who was alone, was waiting on a an
other customer. She examined some shawls
and soon went out. Mr.. Collins noticed
an unnatural development about one of
her shoulders and suspected she had stolen
a shawl. He followed her to the Ashtabu-
La Store where he was convinced that she
had taken some Of his goods. She soon
left this store and disappeared in an alley
which leads to the rear of Morrison's store,
where she was followed and accused of the
THEFT which she strongly denied. She was
taken to Collins store where an examine
tion Of her skirts revealed the stolen
shawl. Among her things in basket she
carried was pair Of stockings and anoth-
er shawl, the first being stolen from the
Erie Store and the other from Moore &
Bro. Ugon the promise to make clean
breast Of her thiefts, and give her name she
was permitted to go. She gave her name
as Mrs. James Costren Of the Harbor.

TWENTY BARRELS OF FLOUR

To be Given 20 the Ladies Relief SOeie-
Iy-PrOsPeet Of Fen More.
We are selling the well known brand Of
Buckeye" Flour, Messrs. Faulkner & Son
are selling brand called Peerless,
They procured a sack ot Buckeye flour,
placed it in front of their store marked one
cent below our prices. To meet this trick,
we challenged the quality of flour and Of
fered to wager ten barrels of Buckeye"
-four, against ten barrels of their "Peer-
less" that our Buckeye flour was superior
in quality, the ten barrels so won to be
given to the Ladies Relief Society. Read
their answer:
A CARD.-We notice in this weeks issue
of the '.Nelcs," certain parties claim,
Buckeye -four to be superior to the peer
less" Peerless flour stands on its Own
merits and no challenging to prove it. But
if the parties-wish to show their liberality
to the poor, we will agree to present to the
flour, if they will present 10 bbl. Buck
eye. free gratis. Now gentlemen carry
out your good intentions to the poor.
j. Nj. FAULKNER & Son.
Does that decide the quality of the flour?
All grades Of -four have to stand on their
own merits. We would have preferred that
a quality as good as Buckeye flour had been
offered, but our kind feeling for the poor
will not permit us to allow so magnanimous
an offer for their relief to go unheeded.
If the Ladies Relief Society can obtain ten
barrels of Peerless flour from ]. NJ Faulk-
ner & Son on the above offer, they can
call on us for an equal amount of Buckeye
-four, and their order will be promptly
filled free gratis.
Another chance for ten barrels of -four
for the Ladies relief Society. We repeat
our former challenge, as to the superior
quality of our -four. Lower prices on

"GArH" ON CANT MEEIINGs.- progress of
love in the church is much facilitated by calling
miss sister and 'Mr." brother. The young
man seeking grace has just got up from wrestl-
ing in the straw, and feels relief and Joy when
plump young woman comforts him across the
table by saying: Brother Tompkins. will you
have some of the cheese?" He bushes and gets
out the sweet utterance, eyes, Sister Todd"
1t seems to be so we'll received, that after
pause, to catch his BREATH ne says, "Sister,
believe I shall battle after dinner, Do you
bathe?" Brother Tompkins," she says, II
think it's just old splendid. After refreshing
sermon it seems to be just as necessary as u
congregational hymn, to get right in and kick
upl' SISTER" he says demurely, "We'll both
bathe!" Then the young man reflects how agree
able is this religion. You are called Brother"
right after you get it. Then everybody has con-
fidence in you. You go bathing with the very
elect. And the younger elect are more comely
than the worldly. How beautifully Sister Todd
pronounces "cheesel" The old heads of the
Church, too, encourage the fun and courtship
as soon as worship is over. Every tendril of
that great vne the Church Society, is thrown
around the convert. Sir Giles Overreacll could
not have been more anxious for his daughter to
kiss close" than these bishops and elders to
marry their converts together. 1t strengthens
our church, and il, besides, marriage fee. So
Sister Todd and Brother Tompkins dip together.
swim together, dive together, and feel aglow
together. Confidence Ia begotten Of their mu-
tual faith in the great over-arching protective
Society into which they are initiated. Not an
eye is taken from them; everlasting vigilance
keeps hem in; the angels bear them up, lest at
any time they dash their feet against stone.
In year or two Tompkins has cottage at
Asbury Park; young Tompkins appears to be
baptized.
