The Young Man and the Church
Fair.

Z ttlIs
Mr.. Stanley Huntley of the Brooklyn Ea-
gle--the writer of the Spoopendyke sketches
-enliyens a late number of that journal
with satirical romance founded on the
reality of the church-fair. The satire, which
we reprint, is lively and good na.ured, and
the hits made in it are palpable. No per-
sons, we suppose, will laugh more heartily
over it, or higher appreciate its badinage
than those fishers ofmen, the merry girls who
get up charity fairs and like enterprises and
find their prey in visitors. of the male persua-
sion
Yet the church fair is good thing always
for the objects of charity, and frequently for
the victims of extortion. Young men can go
farther and fare much worse. He who can
spare few dollars without injuring his own
or wronging his creditors viii do well to
drop them into the laps of these good and
pretty girls instead of into the laps of WON
en- who are pretty but not good. 1t is better
to spend dime at Rebekahs well than a
dollar in treating the boys at some bar. 1t
is better to take chance in the grab bag or
the fish pond than at the faro table or the
dice box. The price of basket of flowers at
the flower stand may be exorbitant, but the
money ID better invested than In basket Of
wine at saloon. 1t is better to guess on
ring-cake than on a ring-fght, to have ones
fortune told at a charity-bazar than to tempt
it in lottery. We -trust that young men
who are given to grumbling at the church
fairs and other enterprises whose objects
are laudable even if their methods are some
times questionable, will consider these
things. If the pleasure they get there is
sometimes almost pain, it never brings a
headache in the morning, or sense OF
shame and self-desradation. We are ad-
dressing ourselves, of course, to those who
have money to spend. Others would do
well to avoid the wiles of the fair church tax

THE New York Tribune characterizes as
a most dangerous and wicked form of prac-
tical treason the attempt of South Carolina
to nullify the National election laws. No
Republican, no Democratic politician, it
says, could hold up his head for a week in
any city of the North, justifying such crimes
as have been perpetrated in that State.
The Portland daily press., 1882-04-01

THE Democratic party is never without a
sacrifice. 1t is said that within a few months
powerful organization will be effected to
secure Pendleton's nomination in 1884 by
the Democrats, and that Pendeton is will
ing to spend as much money as Tllden was
reported TO have done.

Mr.. Alexander Fl. Stephens, says the

that room. Mr.. Stephens has some curious

AN INTERESTING ACCOUNT !!
Stone in the Bladder Expelled by Usins
DR. Kennedy's .sFavorife Remedy

Mr.. S. w. Hicks, of Pleasant Valley, Dutchess
Co.. N Y, the son of Mr.. E. s. Hicks, whose name
may have appeared in this journal In connection
with an article similar to his was like his father
afflicted with Stone in the Bladder, only that his
case was more serious than his father's On the
appearance of the disease the father advised the
son to write to Dr. David Kennedy, Of Rondout,
N Y, who, he said, would tell him what to do DIR.
Kennedy replied, suggesting the use Of "Kennedy's
Fayorite Remedy" which had worked SO success
fully in the fathers case. Mr.. Hicks, who had been
assured by the local physicians that they could do
nothing more for him, tried "Favorite Remedy at
a venture. After two weeks use of it he passed
stone 81 of an inch long and of the thickness OF
pipe-stem. Since then he has had no symptoms OF
the return of the trouble. Here is sick man
healed. What better results could have been ex-
pected? What greater benefit could medical science
confer? The end was gained thatis surely enough.
DIR. Kennedy assures the public by reputation
which he cannot afford to forfeit or imperil, that
the "Fayorite Remedy" does invigorate the Blood,
cures Liver, Kidney and Bladder complaints, as
well as all those diseases and weaknesses peculiar

NEW YORK Herald: There are Jews COM
ing to the United States from Russia, Irish
men from Munster and Ulster, cordially de-
testing one another; republicans and Bona
partists from France; German socialists and
imperialists; Italians, some of whom believe
that the Pope has been cruelty wronged,
and others that he should be driven from
Italy. To assimilate all these and blend
them into harmonious homogeneous po-
litical society is task which no other coun-
try in the world could successfully under
take.

IT is proposed to supply New York city
with water brought two hundred and twen-
ty-five miles from Lake George. Notwith-
standing enormous engineering difficulties,
the cost of constructing the conduit and
other necessary works is estimated at little
less than $5O,oOO,oOO, only twice the cost of
the Croton system. The scheme contem-
plates also the supplying of Brooklyn, Jer-
sey City and Newark, and any towns along
the line that may desire to come in.

SENATOR PENDLETONs bill vests in the
people the power of electing postmasters,
marshals, district-attorneys, clerks of court
and other minor officers. The measure has
not added to Mr.. Pendleton's popularity in
Ohio. The Enquirer says: ''The Exeeu
tive branch of the General Government is
held responsible for the proper discharge of
its duties, and it must therefore have not
only the control of its own servants but the

 This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is posi- tive proof that the remedy inaitoted is of the highest value.
 As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imita- tions sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and people of the country had express ed the merits of H. B., and in every way trying to induce suffer- ing invalids to use their stuff in stead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B.
 \ Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to II. B., with variously cunningly devised names in which the word "Hop" or s'Hops" were used in way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word 'sHop" or ''Hops' in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are ini- tations or counterfeits.
 Beware of them. Touch none of them, but: Use nothing but genuine Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white label. Trust nothing else. Druggists and dealers are warned against dealing in mutations or counterfeits. fD

ments. The Keystone State means that there is an irrepressibie conflict between tyr -ianny and freedom, and one or the other must succumb. So there is between health and disease Every force that fights success fully against disease should be heartily wei comed. Such force-a host in itself-is Hunts Remedy, and it's special line of attack is against kidney and liver diseases, over which it achieves a wonderful triumph. If you have bodily weakness, aching back, a general sense of weariness CT inertia, or dropsical symptoms; if the kidneys or liver are deranged, there is no such medicine as Hunts Remedy. It gives notice to all such diseases to quit. Pennsylvania is right /; both Hunts Remedy and these diseases can't survive, and it is they that are conquered.
