Woman's Face.

"What furniture can give such finish to
room, as tender wsman's face" asks
George Elliott. Not any, we are happy
to answer, provided the glow of health
tempers the tender expression. The
pale, anxious, bloodless face of the con-
sumptive, or the evident sufferings Of the
dyspeptic, induce feelings of sorrow and
grief on our part and compel Us to tell
them of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery" the sovereign remedy for
consumption and other diseases of the
respiratory system as well as dyspepsia
and other digestive troubles. sold every

The book has many other productions,
some of which are really funny and many

the most laughaole hits in the volume
are the sentences, "Oh, that were
dead !" and Oh, how suffer |" from the
Office boys of Puck and The ARKANsAw

with the advice from an unknown:
Honor and fame from no condition rise;

Invitation.

Friends, and enemies too,
if we have them, passing
through Philadelphia, are
invited to make a con-
venience of the Big Store.
1t is between the Broad
street station of the Penn
sylvania r. r. and every
where else, and is on the
way from almost every
station.
1t would be old news to
tell you what the store is
here for. Well skip that
For our present purpose it
is here TO be walked through,
looked at, get rested in, and
TO hold your baggage while
you run about town. AS
you enter the door, any door
almost, you see a place to
leave your bag. Leave a
dozen parcels there, if you
like; no charge. Go all over
the store, upstairs and down;
ask for a guide, if you need
one; go alone, if you like
that better. After you have
walked a few miles and
climbed a pyramid or two,
it may be lunch-time. In the
basement is a place to get a
bite; and that's the only part
of the entertainment you pay
for. We'd like to have that
free, too, if we could. We
fear the wrong people would
come.
In a sense we do not pay
much attention to visitors,
We do not invite them in so
often as we would, if the
newspapers didn't make US
pay for every hospitable
word. When they come,
one or ten-thousand at a
time, we simply let them
alone, unless they ask for
help. We have our hands
full any way; besides, we
don't want people to think
that we ask them here to
drawthem into buying things.
What we really do want
is that everybody every
where should have a pretty
accurate notion Of what is
going on here; and that's
the whole Of 1t.

Rehoboth Letter.

The teachers are having splendid
weather for their trip, and are com
bining business with pleasure in a
very happy manner. Their sessions,
held in the chapel, are conducted in
a manner to expand their minds.
Subjects Of interest are well dissect-
ed, with an occasional new idea to
startle the more sober and staid,
who would still plod along in the
old beaten tracks. The ringing of
the chapel bell is looked for and
heard with pleasure, announcing as
1t does another session-another
feast of the good things which de-
light their hearts and enlarges their
minds. There is continuous sue
cession of entertainments rendered
them. Burton led off with a COM
phmentary hop at the Douglass on
Tuesday night. Antisdal followed
with varied entertainment, consist
ing of readings and Rotations by
Miss Dexter of Troy. A hop fol-
lowed in which the elite Of the
Beach were well represented. DIR.
Thompson of the Bright rendered
them a grand ball on Thursday
night, on which occasion Superin-
tendent Brown of the Maryland and
Delaware Railroad, ran an excursion
from Georgetown, which brought

BUTLER'S PLAN.

Buffers plans for getting his forces
into the Electoral college is not very
practical for a practical man. He
proposes that his followers shall vote
with the minority in each state, but
which is the minority in the "doubt-
full states?" Are the Democrats who
voted for Hancock or the Republi-
cans who voted for Folger in New
York state the minority? This is a
poser to Buffers followers, which
they will be compelled to comprehend
before November or perchance they
will find themselves voting with the
wrong crowd. Then the cheap plan
of organizing sin workshops" hiring
no halls, avoiding brass bands as
blare-makers of the Evil One, and
torchlight PROFESSIONS as the DEATH
lights of freemen, does not promise
well. Now, Ben is rich, and should
open his bar'l. He should not leave
his supporters to starve for a bugle
blast, or pine for a torch, examining
them meanwhile with the east wind
of his own trugality. No, bold Ben;
be q candidate with a flowing bar'l
and do not force your followers to
pay for the pleasure of electing you

"A OANARD.

Commenting upon the recent al
legged offer of Mrs. Parnell, the New
York Truth says: 1.-THE absurd
story from Boston with respect to
the transfer of the Irish vote in this
country to one or the other of the
two political parties in consideration
of certain tariff favors to ireland
proves, as we predicted, to have been
manufactured out of the whole cloth.
Mr.. Parnell thoroughly understands
American politics. No one knows
better than he that it would be fatal
to the cause he has SO much at heart
to PROJECT the Irish question into the
politics OF this country. He also
knows that it would be ridiculous to
attempt TO hand over the Irish vote
to either party on the superstition or
theory that it would result in some
benefit to his country. Irish dollars
are one thing; Irish-American votes
are something entirely differen."
And still the Associated Press news
gatherer wired the news over the
whole county as facts. If Mrs. Par
nell did not make the proposition as
cribed to her some one has done her
and the cause she espouses q very
great injury.

WELL SAID.

Speaking of the foolish and futile
attempt of a campaign clergyman
and q matchmaking sheet in Buffalo
to besmirch the life of Governor
Cleveland, the Missouri Republican
we'll says: But this fact is not with
out immense significance. It is not
to be supposed that 10000 Republic
cans of New York would vote for q
Democrat Of depraved personal hab-
its for the mere object of condemning
the nomination of as exemplary
q public man IS Secretary Folger.
The people of New York knew Gro
yer Cleveland as we'll two years ago
as they know him now; if they did
not, it is because what they have
learned about him since it is.to his
credit and honor as q statesman. The
detestable calumny started in q little
Buffalo paper goes back several years
before his election as governor, and
was used against him in that cam
paign, as it is in the present one. But
in Erie county (Buffalo) where
Cleveland lives and is better known
than anywhere else in the world, the
vote stood: For Cleveland, q, 748;
for Folger, 16.4O8. And in the state
the vote stood: For Cleveland, $685.
3l8; for Folger, 342, asa. So that we
have a majority for Cleveland over
Folger of 1910 in the Republican
county of Erie, and 1o2,854 in. the

Miss Martlneau and the Country
Doctor.

When Miss Harriet Ma1tineau
visited this country, about forty
years ago, she came in the true Brit
lsh nal Udmirari spirit, and of course
wrote q Retrospect of Western
Travel," long dead defunct and for
gotten. The following neat little
story in connection with it deserves
TO be embalmed. She wrote. "'coun-
try doctors are not unlike with conn
cry judges. Being obliged to cali in
the aid of a village doctor to nv COM

a fine specimen of the class. I was
glad of this afterwards, but much
annoyed at the time by the impossl-
b'llty. of extracting from him
the slightest information as to nv
friends state. J detained him in
conversation day after day to no pur-
pose, and varied my questions with
as much American ingenuity as I
could command, but in vain. He
would neither tell me what was the
matter with her, whether her illness
was serious or trifing, or whether it
was likely to be long or short. All
that he would say was, Hope your
friend will be better" "Will make
her better if we can," "Must try to
improve her health and so on. I
was informed that this was all 1

other pocket, spilled some at random

MOn the authority OF Lieutenant
Greeley it is announced that there
was no. such division into hostile
parties among the little starving
band at Cape Sabine as the byena
press insists there was. With the
decency of q gentleman he kept all
the horrors that he could from the
public eye; with the discipline of a
soldier he told the facts to his super
iors. Returning a broker-down man
physically, he will be believed when
he says, that ne has suffered more
mentally since his return than he
did bodily in that ICY hell Of the
north. There are some thin g about
which self-respecting men keepsilent.
There are moments when the most
hardened turn their backs. But the
hyens, give him a grave and he will
tear and tear by day or dark until he
has dragged out and revelled In the
last secrets of decency. Out upon
the animals! 49,:
