THERE was sudden change in the
weather ON Saturday, reminding us that
although we are having summer wealth
er ia winter menth, it's continuance
ia not assured. Until about S p. NJ. 81
that day it was really intentionally
warm in the sun, but all of q sudden the
wind veered around to the north and
By night it was freezing. The next
morning ponds gegs frozen over and
furry Of snow made things look 4neom-

and since then our usual beautiful wealth

The Goodrich Line is losing none of
its popularity among the people, on the
west shore route at least, as the follow
ing item, clipped from the Eveai'lg
Wisconsin, will show
All of the steamers and propellers of
the deservedly popular Goodrich line
have been put in first-class shape for the
seasons business. and will take their
places upon the routes assigned to them
in rapid succession from this time out.
During the winter the steamer Sheboy-
gan, Of the West Shore line, received
new arches and other improvements that
will render her more staunch end sea
worthy than ever before. The work of
renovation and painting has extended
to every boat in the line, and all will
without, while affording all of the com
forts of home within. The popularity
attained by these steamers is largely due
to the officers in command and the ex
cellent discipline which chatacterizes the
management of the affairs of the line.
The best proof of the popularity of the
line, on this shore especially, was afford
ed yesterday, when the Chicago hauled
down to her dock at Manitowoc, for the
purpose of making her first trip of the
season. All day long the boat was
thronged with visitors, mainly citizens
of the place, who came for the double
purpose of inspection, and cOngratula-
tioh of the officers, who had to pass
through the ordeal of hand shaking until
their arms grew tired. The Chicago
left ManitowOc at P. NJ, and at o'clock
reached her dock in the harbor at She
boygan. Here large number of lead
ing citizens were also in waiting with a
brass band, which treated the officers
and passengers to delightful serenade.
A number of the leading citizens of both
places accompanied the Chicago on her
trip to Milwaukee, for the purpose of
honoring the formal opening of the
season of passenger travel along the
West Shore with their presence. The
trip throughout was continuous ova-
ton, and the officers of the steamer are
naturally proud of the reception that
was given them.

TDTES

DIR. SCHENK'S STANDARD REM
EDIES.
The standard remedies for ali diseases of the
lungs are SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP,
SCHENCK's SEA WEED TONIC, and SCHENCk s
MANDRAKE Pills, and If taken be. ore the
lungs are destroyed, a speedy cure is effected
To these three medicines DIR. j. H. Schenck
of Philadelphia, owes mis- unriyalied success IN
the treatment of pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the MORBID
matter in the lungs; nature throws it on by an
easy expectoration. for when the phiegm or
matter is ripe slight cough will throw 1t on,
the patient has rest and the lungs begin to
heal.
To enable the pumonic syrup to do this.
Schenck'S Mandrake Pills and Schenck'S Sea
Weed Tonic must be freely used TO cleanse the
stomach and liver, SchenckS Mandrake Pills
act on the liver. removing all Instructions,
relax the gail bladder, the bile starts freely,
and the liver is soon relieved.
SchencI6's Sea Weed Tonic is q gentle stimu-
liant and alternative; the allSali of which it is
composed mixes with the food and prevents
souring 1t assists the digestion by tOning up
the stomach TO a healthy condition. so that the
food and the Pulmonie Syrup viii make good
blood; then the lungs heal, and the patient
will suIaiy ket well If care is taken to prevent
fresh cold.
All WHIP wish to consult DIR. Schenck, either
personally or by letter, do at his princi-
pal office, corner of sixth and Arch Sts., Phila-
delphla, every Monday Schencks medicines
are sold by all druggists throughout the country

THERE is a certain line between
enough and too much In the salary of
public officials which is sometimes hard
to establish, and while the efforts of the
Board of Aldermen to economic are to
be commended, we believe that those
officers who perform their duties faith
fully should be paid sufficient to reward
them, especially when by strict atten.
ton to business they can and do save
the city hundreds or thousands of dol
lars. In this belief We append below
what seems to us pretty good argu-
ment against the reduction of the salary
of the City Attorney. During the last
two years no costs have been paid by
the city except the necessary costs of
the police court. We do not wish to be
understood as charging neglect to former
city attorneys. Business was done in a
loose way by the board, without consult
ing with, or asking the opinion of their
legal adviser.

In IS14-case of Clafiin VS.. city of Mani
towoc-tax lost, $2O4. /; costs, SSO.36. 2s2. 81
Total losses paid. ............ 81, 1s4.2
The above is only partial list of the
losses sustained by the city. Hundreds
of dollars in taxes have been lost in adj
dition to the foregoing. The city should
elect honest, capable men, should pay
them fair price for their services and
hold them officially responsible for any
mistakes in conducting the business of
their respective offices. Whether the
city attorney can afford to do that for
$3.50 per year is a question which the
Board should answer. We are of the
opinion that he can not.
THE ticket put in nomination by the
Republicans this spring is one which
should command the support of at least
every member of that party. In Hon.
John Schuette, the nominee for Mayor,
our citizens recognize gentleman whose
reputation for integrity and adherence
to strict business principles in all his
dealings is as widespread as his reputa-
ton as business man, and we believe
he will exert himself to have the affairs
of the city conducted in the same way.
What the Mayor can do to run the mum
icipal machinery intelligently and econ
omically. will be done by Mr.. Schuette,
and we regard his nomination as cred
table piece of work on the part of the
delegates. For Treasurer, the nomina-
ton made is equally good. Mr.. Kos
and oldest business men and will bring
to the Office knowledge of book-keep-
ing which will insure a strict, systematic
method of keeping the public funds, and
deserves IN election The candidates
for Aldermen are all taxpayers and
comprise an intelligent body, and we
may reasonably hope for an economical
administration at their hands. The
candidates for Justices are all we'll and
favorably known, and the Constables,
men who will attend strictly to their
business. AS whole the ticket is
worthy of the support of the party, and
should receive it.

to be a maid,
For we quite agreed in doubling whether
matrimony paid,
Beside, we had our higher loves; fair science
ruled my heart
And she said her young affections were all
bound up in art.
So we laughed at those wise men who say
that friendship cannot live
'Twixt man and woman, unless each has
something more to give.
We would be friends, and friends as true as
eer were man and m4n-

We scorned all sentimental trash-voWs,
kisses, tears and sighs;
High friendship, such as ours, might well
such childish arts despise.
We liked each other-that was all, quite all
there was TO say,
So we just shook hands uponit in business
sort of way.
We shared our secrets and our joys, together
hoped and feared,
With a common purpose sought the goal
that young ambition reared;
We dreamed together ofthe days-the dream

We were strictly confidential. and we called
each other "chum."

To run in with their waterfalls and groves
and summer skies,
And many quiet evening, in hours Of full
release,
We loated on the river, or; loafed beneath
the trees,
And talked in long gradations, from the
poets to the weather,
While the western skies and my cigar burned
slowly out together.
Yet, through it all no whispered word, no
tell-tale glance or sigh
Told aught of warmer feeling than friendly
sympathy
We talked of love as coldly as we talked Of
nebula.
And we thought no more of being one than
We did Of being three.

tory in manner to the walters at the
club, no doubt had once some romance
some absorbing love or crushing sor-
row that has caused them to remain
single But men know we'll enough
that the mere act of metaphorically
shaking ones self, and doggedly set
ting to at any task that is available,
cures the heart-cche, and is the hest
mode of turning tribulation into re-
joicing.
There is a place for everything in
Nature. Women are gradually them
selves finding scope for their faculties,
and fresh outlets for their activity.
If single men are not unhappy, why
should single women be so? The
mind absorbed in its own infnitesimal
perplexities and affairs, forgets that
the same sun shines over all the earth;
that the same impulses and passions
and desires nerve all mankind that
history repeats itself, and is but one
continued record of failures, disap-
pointments, and desperate struggles
after right. From the serene heights
of looker-on the single soul may
share the pains and comfort the sor
rows of the weary, the heart-stricken,
and the erring. Independence, too,
has a great charm. The single person
may roam where he lists, may range
to the end of the earth without fear of
having his heart strings tugged at, or
feeling himsef dragged back by fam
lily ties and duties. For him there
are no narrowing death-beads, no Bit /
ter watchings and anxieties, no ago
nizing fear of ruin for the sake of those
cherished ones dependent on him.
Calm and confident, he knows that
fate can not harm him; for it is only
through our affections that we are

peace of contentment,
