For nearly quarter of d century DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy has been acknowl-
edged by the people as positive cure for all
catarrhal affections. Its great popularity
with physicians and patients, together with
its constantly increasing sale, attests, in argu-
ments stronger than words, its healing
power. If there be general or nervous de-
bility and impoverished blood, DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery should be used
in connection with the Catarrh Remedy.
The followng-named parties are among the

We had the pleasure of attending the
Lyceum at Lehighton last Saturday evening,
and we found it well attended and
very interesting. The subject for de-
bate was n national one and was
handled with vigor. Messrs. Horn, Snyder
Bohn, Gable, and Weiss acquitted them
selves with honor-our average Congress-
men do no better, in fact l doubt whether
they are as well read. The Lyceum should
receive the hearty support of the citizens. 1t
is mutual improvement society. Mr.. o.
A. Clauss fills the chair creditably, his rul-
ing are prompt. Great and good results
may be expected if the interest is kept up.
Thomas Weaver has a large contract for
prop timber which will take some time to
fill. He has quite a force employed. There
is no man in this county more deserving Of
success Hard-working, honest, his efforts
should bring a good remuneration.
We hear that our friend Hibbler will
remove to Lehighton again. The increas-
sing sale of his Florida kindler' requires
lager place for the manufacturing, and the
facilities are offered there. We shall be
sorry to part With him.
4 Joseph Horn is home temporarily from
BALTIMORE City, where he is pursuing his
stAdies, and whence he will emerge a full
>1edged NJ. D. Joe is a close student; and
will make his mark IN the professional

Says the Lebanon, Pa, Raiiy Netes Of the
2jth ult.: Every nook and,corner of the
auditorium room of the First Reformed
church was filled with people, eager to hear
the sermon of Rev. A. r. Bartholomew to
the Patriotic Order Sons of America, last
evening Long before the hour announced
for the opening of the doors, crowds of peo-
pie were seen on our streets vending their
way to the church, where already a large
crowd had assembled on the outside, SO that
when the doors were opened the seats were
occupied in very short space of time, and
the deacons were obliged to bring benches
and chairs into the aisles and other vacant
parts OF the room in order TO seat the audi
ence. The order filed into the church in
body, Numbering over 100 men, and occu-
pying over one tier of pews. The delivery
of the Reverend gentleman was one of rare
ability for one so young in years. He held
the entire assemblage spell bound during the
entire sermon, and MI united at the close, in
congratulating the young clergyman on his
able discourse. All were highly interested
and would have been willing 10 sit for half
an hour longer without becoming in the
least iatigued. The order can we'll feel
proud of having in its ranks young man of
such abilities and culture. We feel convinc-
ed that his presence in a Lebanon pulpit
will be long remembered by our citizens who
had the pleasure of hearing him, and hope
that he may before long appear in our midst
again. Rev. Bartholomew, selected his text
from the book of Proverbs, the l4th chapter
and part of the 34th verse, "RIGHTEous-
NESS ExALTETH NATION"
