CANCER CURED

DIR. JAMES BRADEN, who lives on Bridge
street, in the First ward, New Castle, Pa, Las
devoted his attention to the study OF medicine
for the last thirtythrce years, and las been sue
ce-sluly treating Cancers for eighteen years
past. His first cancer treatment he learned
from old Indian doctor, with whom he was
associated from 1917 to 1850. The next method
OF treatment for the cure of cancer he learned
from noted doctor who lived in Winchester,
Indiana. He was afte-ward associated with n
cancer doctor from Scotland, and still later with
one from South America. All these doctors
used plasters of one kind or another, and their
treatment was more or less severe. But DIR.
Braden has another and still better method of
treatment Last autumn, when George Ferrard,
better known AS the 'Old Mountaincer Doctor,
visited Young gstown, o Dir. b. went there also,
aud not only succeeded in purchasing from the
old doctor the secret of his successful treatment,
but accompanied him 20 Akron, assisting in the
meantime To put the old doctors treatment in.
to practice. While ut Youngstown they rcnov-
ed twenty-six cancers. BY this treatment The
cancer Is removed in from ten To fifteen days,
without knife or plaster, and with less pain
than any other treatment. 1he cancer is who'll
ly removed and the cure rapid and radical. DR..
Braden also treats successfully all Chronic Dis
eases and old sores OF every description. He
charges nothing for consultation.

there were in the country about 10000 bales of

maintain that there are not over 5000 bales in

This latest railroad slaupbter

This latest railroad slaughter IS
even more atrocious and inexcusable than usual.
Two excursion trains leave seaside resort with
in few minutes of each other. The engineer
of the second follows the first SO closely and at
such rate Of speed that when the latter slows
up to get on a siding out of the way Of an ex-
press train he finds himself unable to stop. The
brakes do not work properly, and his engine
crashes into the rear of the forward train, kill
ing some of the excursionists and scalding many
more. What possible palliation can be found
for such and accident as this

The meat canning business is
growing to vast proportions in the country,
especially in Chicago, which now has in opera
ton more canning factories than the whole of
the rest of the country. Prices at the factory
are 20 cents pound for cooked beef and 25
cents pound for cooked and pressed tongues,
the canned goods, of course, consisting entirely
of good, nonrishing food. This kind of food
should be used in many more households than
1T is at present. In country places where the
butchers cart is seldom seen what greater con-
venience can there be than that which enables
the housewife at moments notice to place on
the table the best of beef, tongue, ham, bacon,
chicken or turkey.

One of the most noticeable chang
es in agriculture in Pennsylvania during the
last few years is the great increase in the
growth Of tobacco, especially in Lancaster,
York and Berks counties. Wiley reports that
the total amount in internal revenue collected
within his district has increased over 3S per
cent. within the last four years, the total hav-
ing grown from $770, 500 80 for the fiscal year
ending June 30th, 1876, to "a ,06l ,64257 for the
year which closed with last month. Five
years ago the tobacco crop of Lancaster county
did not probably exceed S250,0O0 in value, and
that Of York $4,000; now the value of the
crop in each county rises in the millions.

The newest feature in Westerr

life has been the exhibition of the alleged but
doubtful Bender family, in a Kansas Comic
Theatre, under the auspieces of the Sheriff
who has them in charge, at twenty-five cents a
head admittance. Selling reserved seats for
hangings has long been among Sherifls' per-
quisites. In Camden, n. j., not long ago, an
enterprising official peddled pieces of the rope.
But the Kansas experiment opens new vistas
of business for Sheriff 3, and also, perhaps, for
detectives and constables sent to arrest Illus
trious criminals and convey them from one
place to another. By an arrangement with
their charges for sharing the net profits of ex-
hibitions, they could star in all the prominent

The apportionment of members of

The apportionment of members of
the Federal House of Representatives under
the census of 1870 was made by the act of Feb
ruary 2, 1872, and provided that that body
should be composed of 291 members. The re-
apportionment was made to apply first to the
Forty-third Congress, which began March 4,
1873. The same act provided that members of
the Forty-fifth and of succeeding Congresses
should be voted for on the Tuesday following
the first Monday of November in every alternate
year, commencing with 1876. 1t is probable
that the new apportionment of Representative
to be made under the census of 1850 will first
apply to the Forty-eighth Congress, which will
commence its term March 4, 1888. The number
of members is not likely to be extended much,
if. any, beyond 300. The Eastern and Southern
States, it is thought will lose relatively, while
the West will gain. Enough data, however,
calculation in this respect The basis of repre-
sentation is changed as the growth of popula-
ton from time to time requires. In 1879 it was
10000. Under the last allotment it was 49,
425. The basis will probably be raised to some-
thing like 175,000 under the present census.

the watering of rum, which used to be ascribed
perhaps uncharitably, to pious New England
deacons who kept grocery stores, have at length
become obsolete, and while no complaints are
now heard of white oak hams and nutmegs
made out of hemlock bark, the bad industry of
food adulteration is by no means extinct. In
stead of the bald and simple swindlers formerly
in vogue, later years have brought with them
new and adroit and not easily detected pro-
cesses of fraud in the manipulation of what We
eat and drink. The appliances of science are
invoked to supply continually new methods of
imposture. A system of development of these
sinisters practices is seemingly in operation
that daily evolves some fresh assault upon our
stomaches and our pockets. What with oleo-
margarine, glucose, bogus coffee, condiments
and spices, adulterated teas, flour, &C., the
situation is melancholy one, and the pros
pect is far from encouraging. 1t may be true
that he who is robbed and knows it not is not
robbed at all but it requires a good deal of
philanthropy to admit that
