THE late Judge Black had power
full ear for music. His dsughter Becky
used to play something that pleased
him. 1t was "Lucy Neal" It soon
became his favorite. Whenever Becky
would be playing for visitors the Judge
would say: "Now, Becky, give US my
faverits, Lucy Neal,'" and Becky,
slyly winking at the guests, would
play "Old Dan Tucker" or "Old
Hundred" As she concluded, the
Judge would tip back his chair and
exclaim, "That's my favorite," and
couldn't. understand. what the people
were laughing at"

My wife was at the brink of the

by three of Allegheny City's best ply

Worthy of Praise,

AS q rule we do not recommend
Patent Medicines, but when we know
ofone that really is public benefactor,
and does positively cure, then we con-
slider it our duty to impart that inform
alton to all. Electric Bitters are truly
most valuable medicine, and will
surely cure BilIiousness, Fever and
Ague, Stomach, Liver and Kidney
Complaints, even when all other rem
edies fail. We know whereof we speak
and can freely recommend them to all.

Influence of the Soil on Health

The influence of the soil on the
health of those who. live upon it, is
brought out very plainly during the
prevalence of epidemic diseases. That
malarfal diseases Qike intermittent
fevers) originate from the soil, is al
ready accepted and recent investiga-
tions show pretty conclusively that
the germs of Cholera, abdominal Ty-
phus, YelIew Fever, and the plague
are III some way connected with the
sell, which is daily corroborated by
letters from all parts OF the country.
stating the marvellous effect PERUNA
has on those diseases, and in their
cOnvalescent state, JOHN E. COURTNEY
of Cory, Pa, says: " I am still get
ting better, thanks to your Peruna."

over the matter of the circulation OF

for each others scalps at furious rate.
They are offering to bet big money

to be relied upon, and the perfect aban-

THE legislative committee, which has
been considering the work of the geolog
ical commission, reports that "upon the
whole the work is we'll dcne and is a
credit to the state, and it will compare
favorably with any geological work in
this country or abroad" To which we
have to say that if this opinion is cor
rest geology is q very resultless science.
This commission has been hammering
away at Pennsylvania rocks for some
thing like ten years, more or less, and we
arc not impressed with the conviction
that any one is much thewiser concerning
them because of the geologists' labors.
Perhaps there was nothing new to tell !;
and that would be a good reason why
the best geologists on earth can tell us
nothing new. But we observe that
practical men, who have been delving in
the earth all thistime, have yearly made
valuable discoveries therein, which were
q new to the geologists as to anybody.
We respectfully suggest that Pennsylva-
sta has had enough Of the very excellent
geological work of biologists who make
- discoveries.

His excessive courtesy and bland estheti.
cism of hatred are something new to our

He said to me, in speaking of Blaine and
Garfield Good Lawd, shall We never
hear the end of Gyarfleld? Only last night
I went to take Turkish ba-a tn, for pur-
poses of recuperation after labor. When
I had flushed bathing, and was lying
wrapped up in my blanket, on the
sofa, enjoying the repose which
comes 80 naturally to the overstrained
nerves of gentleman, heard two
young men in the next apartment convers
ing together. One of them asked the other
if he had yet named his infant child. He
replied that he had done 80, after q pro.
lOnged family fued. His wife wanted one
name-ke wanted another-and they had
at last compromised by calling the poor,
helpless young one, James A. Gyarfield.

say that his company has no line to
York. Judge Black made no complaint

that coal is carried past York to Balti

than it is dropped at York as an exam
pie of the sort of freight discrimination
which he wants TIE state TO put an end

from the Reading road as York suffers
from the Pennsylvania. He will, no

year to the city (; and when the Reading
line now being surveyed to York, shall
have been built, Judge Black will warm
himself and the fires of his neighbors'
furnaces will be fed with fuel at least
q dollar per ton cheaper than it is now
furnished them.
