of our best people as to its merits:
81 have tried Dobbins' Electric Soap,
made by I. L. Cragin & Co., Phil'a,

facturers claim it to be. 1t is the wo-
mems friend, because it saves ne-half
the labor. Mrs. J. L. CRAIG"
"Dobbins' Electric Soap is the best
[ have ever used. l can heartily rec
ommcnd it. 1t is charm in the wash
tub. Mrs. ID. S. KNOX"
81 take pleasure in recommending
Dobbins' Electric Soap. 1t is a supe,
rior article, in fact the King of Soaps.
Mrs. w. r. RECK."
We desire all our friends and Gus.
toners to give this soap one trial, so
they may know just how good the best
soap in the U. S. is.

On Sunday morning last it was
discovered that during the previous
night channel from twenty to twen-
tyfive feet in width had been cut
through the ice bridge here, which was
recently constructed with considerable
trouble and some expense. Of course
the parties who constructed the ice
bridge had no hesitation about where
to place the instigation of the job, and
express themselves to the effect that
"the end is not yet" Another piece
Of ice was swung on Monday, and the
connection again made. We believe
teams are crossing this morning. If
this matter goes any further we sup.
pose our courts will have tho final set
tlement Of the affair.
The Derrick Of Monday gives "the
rumor for what it is worth, that Ty.
lersburg, Clarion county, has an or.
ganized band Of outlaws, the members
Of which are oath. bound, and the lives
and property of the law-abiding citi.
zens Of the city are greatly endan-
gered."
We don't believe the rumor is worth
much. The citizens of Tylersburg are
law abiding race, and as far as we
have been able to learn, have never. as
a community, been guilty of anything
worse than debating society. Oh,
no they manufacture slaves out there,
and are 0. X. We expect, however,
to see the stave.hauers' heads oath
bound all around with blue rings of
profanity, when they come in here and
find that the ice-bridge has been "scut-
tied"
