THERE WAS A SPIDER ON HIS HEAD.

Old Mr.. Colamore is very deaf lhe
other Sunday, in the midst of the services,
Mr.. Hoff, who sits Immediately behind Mr..
Collamore, saw large spider travelling over
the latter's bald head His first impulse was
to nudge him, and tell him all about it, but
he remembered that Mr.. Collamore was deaf,
SO he lifted up his hat, and brushed the spider
off. Hoff didn't aim quite hig n enough, and
consequently, in his nervousness, he hit old
Collamore quite severe blow. The old gen.
tleman turned around, in rage, to see who
dared take such liberty with him, and Hoh
began to explain with gestures, the cause of
the occurrence. But Collamore, in loud
voice, demanded what it meant. 1t was very
painful to Hoff. The eyes of the congrega-
ton were upon him, and he grew red in the
face, and said : "There was spider on your
head" "a white place on my head, hey !?
Suppose there is, what's that to you 2" said
Collamore you'll know what it is to be bald
headed, yourself, some day" ut was spi
DER" shrieked Hoff, while the congregation
smiled and the perspiration began to roll off
his face. "Certainly it's wider" said Cola
more "and got more in it than yours. But
let it alone-do you mind? You may let my
neaQ alone III CnuTcn. WI. Ooiiatnoio,
shrieked Hof, "there was bug on your head
and l brushed him off this way" and Hof
made another gesture at Collamore's head.
The old man thought he was going to 6ght
him then and there, and, hurling a hymn book
at HoF, he seized the kneeliDg stool on the
floor of the pew and was about to bang Mr..
Hoff, when the sexton interfered. An expla-
nation was written on the fy-leaf Of the
hymn book, whereupon Mr.. Collamore apol-
ogized in boisterous voice, and resumed his
seat Then the services proceeded. They
think of asking Mr. Collamore to worship
elsewhere.

thought the stranger was making game Of
him "it goes to-day yesterday, the week after
next" "You didn't understand" persisted
the stranger; II want to 60 to Morrow" ,"
Systematically don't you wait till to.mor-

day to Morrow" Brakeman-"Not exactly
it will 60 to-day, and come back tomorrow" :"
AS the gentleman who wanted to 60 to Nor

employe, who knew the station alluded to,
came along and gave the desired information.

sPIKING THE DEMOCRATIC GUNS.

For six years the Democratic party
has made its campaigns in this State
on the cry of fraud in the Treasury.
Six years ago General Hartranft and
r. w. Mackey were bounded and be-
labored by cries and accusations that
they were the authors of gigantic
frauds in the accounting and disburs.
ing offices of the commonwealth. The
specific statement was made that the
vaults of the Treasury contained the
evidence of malfeasance in that the
public moneys were loaned to people
who did not repay them that all the
State had in lieu of the money thus
misapplied were mass of worthless
due bills and notes of hand. Auditor
General Temple won his election by
this cry, and yet he did not show sin.
gle instance of fraud having been com.
mitted by his predecessors. He was
for three years in Office, yet failed to
enlighten the public from the records
IN his possession of any malfeasance.
Senator Wallace owes his election to
the United States Senate by a Legis.
iature which was voted into power to
reveal tie frauds alleged to exist by
the organs of his party. That Legis.
lature instituted an inquiry which it
prosecuted and abandoned, failing to
find any evidence of wrong, and igno.
miniously declNing to admit the facts.
Again, last year the same cry of fraud
was used by the Democracy, and they
carried the election of the accounting
and disbursing officers of the state, be-
cause the people believed that wrong
perpetrated by Republicans in Office
was covered up in the vaults of the
Stste Treasury. On Monday the pub
lie was for the first time enlightened
on = subject which has perhaps elected
more clamor and produced more bad
feeling than any which has ever enter
ed into Pennsylvania politics. State

The BroOkville Republican says :
In Greenback meeting at Chautau-
qua Lake, Mr.. S. R. Mason, the Ma.
tional candidate for Governor of Penn
sylvania, said that he never expected
to see the bonds paid he did not want
them paid but wished the Govern
ment to reduce the interest to 81 per
cent. as in England. He thought it
might be well enough to renew the
bonds for forty years, but he believed
they would never be paid, and that
was the right way. What followed
these declarations is described in the

Hardly had Mr.. Mason uttered
those sentiments ere a gentleman in
the audience jumped from his chair

Il Must Lie Down and Die.n

The following is an extract from a letter
dated July 81, 1877, to the discoverer of
Bethesda Water. The writer is the Rev.
T. b. Fuller, ID. D., d. G. L., Rector of st.
Gregory's Church, Toronto, Archdeacon of
of Niagara, etc., etc. The writer, at the
age of go years was victim of Sdccharinc
Diabetes. His physician said Ito use DR..
FulleI's words) che could do no more for
me than he had done: that my disease was
incurable, and that must lie down and
die" We should state here, e,, parcntke-
sis, that our townsman, Joseph Fleming,
ESQ.,, is the sole and only authorised agent
for this wonderful water for this State, as
well as for Ohio and West Virginia.l To
return to DR.. Fuller: "In four days" he
writes, ''after taking the Water, 1 obtained
relief, and since that time have taken no
medicine, consulted no medical man, and
presume, if conld give myself reasonable
rest, would be quite we'll"
Such testimony, from such a source,
should indeed have convincing weight.
