The Crusade Against Rum.

CHESTER, November 25.-The temper
ance people of Chester have begun a
campaign against rum, which they think
will have the effect of reducing the
number of gin shops in Delaware coun-
ty. 1t is the intention to get up petit
ton to Judge Clayton, asking him to
grant only half as many licenses for next
year rs he did this. Colonel Tbeo. Hy-
att, of the Penn Military Academy,
thinks the temperance people Will be
succe ssful if the churches take hold of
the matter. He SAID "Trinity and
M Madison Street Methodist Episcopal
Church put Judge Clayton where he is
He received the vote of the church and
temperance people of the city" There
are over one hundred grog shops in and
around Chester. DR.. Jewett, the Con,
necticut temperance orator, delivered
his fifth lecture in Chester this evening
He had an audience of 800 persons last

Ehinrgtng the Sphere of the
GPeenhnclx

Secretary Sherman's remarks IN the
Baltimore bank presidents have excited
crineism IN some quarters which has the
appearance Of beirg captious, but the
general Impression made upon nercan-
Iiie communities il favorable. The Sec
retary evidently expects to a'd in main
tahlng the parity of greenbacks with
coiD by increasing their uses and enlar.-
ingtheir sphere of action. Thus, although
he dld not expressly state the fact, IT is
apparent that he expects greenback
which is at par with gold and is also re-
ceivable for customs. to take the place.
since 1t Is capable of performing all the
duties OF a clearinghouse or coin certifi-
cate. The New York Bulletin calls at
tenflon also to the important circum-
stance that this new use of greenbaeks
"wlll vastly diminish the occasion for
making distinctions between silver and
other currencies." "In other words. - IL
says, "the greenback will do all the work
or gold and silver, excepting only the
settlement of foreign balances" AS
these balances are now all in our favor,
when resumption is effected there will
be practically no object to be attained by
the conversion or notes. into coin, and
the supply OF gold and silver will bo am
PIE for all purposes of banking reserve
That supply is stated by Comptroller
Knox, from data furnished by DR.. Lin
dsrman, dir, ctor of the mint, to be as
follows:

1t will be seen from these figures that

of increase should be maintained up to

Something for the New Year.

The world renowned success of Hos- tetter's Bitters, and their continued popularity for a quarter of q century as stomachic, is scarcely more wonderful than .he welcome that greets the annual appearance of Hostetter's Almanac. This valuable medical treatise is pub lished by Hostetter X Smith, Plttsburg, Pa, under their own immediate super vision, employing 80 hands in that de- pertinent. Ten cylinder printing pres ses, s folding machines, job presses, &c., are running about eleven months in the year on this work, and the issue of same for 1879 will be not less than
 ten millions. printed in the English, German French, Welsh, Norwegian, Swedish, Holland, Bohemian and Span ish languages. Refer to a copy of it for valuable and interesting reading concerning health, and numerous tes- timonials as to the efficacy of Hostetter's s Bitters, amusement, varied information, astronomical calculations and chrono- logical items, &c., which can be de- pended on for correctness. The Alma nae for 1879 can be obtained free of cost, from druggists and general coun- try dealers in all parts of the country.

Female Suicides.

Poor, frail woman How sad the life and how terrible the death of many. The midnight plunge, the lovers leap, the bloody dagger, the poison's venom
 are all brought into acquisition to shor-
 ten life. And yet another mode of self distraction is more frequent than all others combined. While mother and daughter are guilty the father smiles
 an assent. Females are absolutely hur- rying themselves to the premature graves by refusing to cure the ills of fe- male --diseases that constantly afllict them. Some become pale, feeble and
 emaciated while others suffer with
 monthly troubles of chronic nature duplicating the whole system. Young girls have become unfit for life and
 mothers drag miserable existence. You can be cured of all this suffering and why hesitate? Dr. Dromgoole's s English Female Bitters has cured thous- ands and will cure you. It is.a powerful permanent tonic and female regulator

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.
Hot Springs to be Illuminated by
 Electric Light.

We were shown on last Saturday the drawings specifications and dis cription of an application for q pa- tent. by DrJ, L Gebhart of this city by which all the hot water in the bed of the creek and on the bank too tow for practical use for bathing purpos. es can be raised to the desired height by small portion of it's heat alone as the motive force.
 Wonderful as it may appear there is nothing new in any of the devices; all have been in practical operation for several years past, the novelty consists entirely of combination of old and we'll known.devices and prin- ciples, and there is no doubt whatev- CT of it's practiabillty. The cost when once the apparatus is erected will be nothing at all. except the wear and tear, waste and fabrication of the ma chine, the wonder however is not so great when it is considered that heat is we'll known alreacy the great motor for ali mechanical purposes, but that hot water should be made to lift it. self up by small portion of it's nat ural heat, is in the abstract never theless wonderful achievement in science.
 After this apparatus IS once set upthe water being constant in supply and heat will be practically a perpetual motor.
 But the most wonderful part Of the story remains yet to be told. In addi- tion to the above the doctor informs us that by the use of this machine he is enabled to use the electricity that is in this hot water naturally so as to light up Valley street with light equal to five thousand candle power and since the government manage ment of these hot spings seems to be determlnd to waste the electricity in these waters as curative agent he thinks it ought to be utilized for ligh ting up the street, inasmuch as nature furnishes it here with such lavish hand. He says there IS enough of electricity constantly wasting here to make Valley street as bright as day light every night the year round and dispence with the expensive gaslight at no further cost than keeping the apparatus in order. The papers are now on the their way to Washington D. c.
 
 attainmentss, as the discovery of the active properties of these waters he has already made and published clearly proves. We say to him go ahead and we will stand by you; in- vestigate and work on. Labor is the price of progress.-Hot Springs Tele- graph.

ANOTHER LIBERAL OFFER. A Good Paper Twelve Months

We arc thoroughly in earnest in the desire to get all our people to do more reading and thinking for themselves.

It is the only way in which they can retain and secure their liber- ties ito read and think for themselves. But what, says one, would you have us read? We would have you read FIRST, YOUR OWN HOME PAPER. It is your home paper that feels for your interests, and that furnishes you such fnforma- ton as most intimately effects your in- terests. But, says our ordinary fault finder, you don't give us reading matter enough. Don't we? We'll, we give you far more than you can get ou. of any book which costs you the same sum of money. We give you far more than we could possibly give you if all men supported the press just as you do. But we are not going to find fault, for we have had very good support ill dear old Pope county. We are now going to make you an offer to meet this objection of not enough reading. It is this

Public Manners.

Nothing more surely marks gen. tlcman than his public manners. It is, for instance, impossible to feel that a man who arrives at hotel late at night, and !goes noisily, talk ing and laughing, along the corridor to bls room, flinging his boots down heavily and slamming the door, though an upright and excellent per son, possesses the finer qualities of the gentleman. The essence of cour- tesy is moral. It is a sympathetic regard for the feelings of others which spares them unnecessary an noyance. When it is instinctive, it is called tact But it is, at bottom, humanity. So when a public man vituperates another, however smart" the abuse may be, there is an in stant perception of the want of the true gentlemanly feeling. However DullSucu luc lnNcNtifc, IL iS HotHii-S more than the style of the stews. When q member of the public assem- bly, had been berated by an opponent with every kind of an offensive epi thet, and was asked to reply, he said, But there IS no reply to a slop pail" fla guest disturbed from rest by the noisy conner that we mentioned should open his door, and, by way of reprisal, "shy his boot jack at the door of his noisy neighbor when he had fallen asleep, it might be what was called, when one scientific man spat in the face of another who had questioned his assertion, "the wild justice of approximations" but it would not be gentlemanly.
 Perhaps, then, it is better some times not to be gentlemanly? That is undoubtedly the practical conclu- sion of those who feel uncomfortable when they have been covered with mud, until they can throw mud iD return. But the seif-restraint which good manners imposes is always better than "letting yourself go." Mephistopheles is never good coun- selor and largely because he is not a gentleman. The real Sephardic may or may not trace continuous gentle blood through interminable generations of ancestry. But do net slam their boots nor thelr doors, nor hustle In late at concerts and talk during the performance, nor occupy more seats iu Q railroad car than they pay for, nor keep their seats in street ear, compelling a woman to stand. They may, indeed, reprove and rebukc, but without heat or per sonality, like Thomas, when he fear ed that the music interrupted the conversation, or like that true gentle man whom the older Berkshire knew, and who said to the young woman to whom he had given hls place in the car, and who asked him what he was waiting for, "Ouly to hear you say
 thank you, my deal"

Too Much Physic.

Yes, many people are killing them selves with strong medicines. They are making miniature drug shops of theil stomachs. Pills, calomel add blue mass are taken in quantities for constipation billousness and headache. The vital organs become oyerpowered and para. lyzed by the use of strong drugs, the designs of nature become frustrated and disease is the result. Constipation cannot be cured by the use of drastic purgatives-it may give relief to-day but the complaint will return to-nor. low. Mild and pleasant remedies ar, best for constipation, billiousness, dys. pepsia, etc., and for this purpose, moth. ing equals Bailey's Saline Aperient. Il acts speedily and effectually, is cooling pleasant and sparkling, and can hardly be called a medicine. Large bottles o( cents.
