the patronage of all the young ladies in the

toileites in any part of the house without

myself nor walk without sticks. took
everything that could hear of, but got no
better, and began to get discouraged.
Mr.. Good, the druggist, advised me to take
Phelps Rheumatic Elixir. l did so, and
after having taken the first bottle | felt sat
isfied that it was helping me. When had
taken three bottles l was entirely cured. l
feel very grateful for what your medicine

mend it to those afflicted with Rheuma-

in behalf of your Elixir.
Yours, with many thanks,

Adjourned meeting of council was held
on Monday November 10Th.
Mr.. Hartman on behalf of the committee
on the sale of the town park reported hav-
ing seen Mr., Waller and the latter thought
it would be Il mistake for the town to sell
the park But, if the town council, citi-
zens and taxpayers thought best to sell it,
he would take it at the proposed two
thousand dollars but that he would like
to have some time forreflection on the mat
ter.
In the matter of sewerage, county survey
or Neyhard submitted report, in which he
states that the pipes should be from to 10
inches, of Terra Gotta slip glazed vitriied
pipe All laterals to be inches, except
hotels which might be 8 inches. The pro-
posed route to be from Normal School
down to Market st. Down Market to 9th,
out 9th to Iron and from thence to the Sus-
quehanna river. The estimated cost to be
about $4,000.
The president appointed Messrs. Meyer
and Hartman as committee to procure right
of way on sewer under canal, Also l.. Il.
Waller and VIM. Rabb to procure right of
way from canal to the river,
Secretary instructed to correspond with
parties to procure prices of different sizes
of Terra Gotta pipe.
The following resolution was unanimous
adopted
Resolved, That the town engineer be au-
thorized to take the levels of the streets OF
the town to find its topography for lateral
sewers in connection with the main.sewer, the
location of which has already been adopted
and that not less than $500 be devoted an
