experiment while disease Is steadily be-

A REVOLUTION IN CORSETS.

Those respectable and dyspectable Oil
bachelors WHO used to insist that ladies
ought to dress for the street in Grecian
gowns and to eschew for ever such vani-
ties as ornaments and devices for making
themselves more beautiful have been
pretty well sat down upon In these times
of practical common sense. 1t is an &C
cepted doctrine nowadays that lady's
duty is to appear to the very best advan-
tage possible. In order to do this she
must be we'll dressed, in the modern sense
of the word. Ladies know far better
than newspaper men can tell them how
much the fit and graceful appearance of a
dress depend upon the corsets she wears.
1t has always been more or less difficult
to get perfectly satisfactory corsets, how
ever. As nearly all are made over one
model, ladies with prominent hips or full
forms have had much trouble in getting a
corset to fit them or one that will not
break over the hips. Another great OBJ
lection to the ld-fashioned corset has
been the breaking of the steels and the
'horror" of all ladies has been the "break-
Corset Company, however, has overcome
these difficulties by inventing their Balls
Coiled Spring Elastic Section Corset.
These corsets are made in a large number
of styles, in all qualities, and are sold
with the remarkable guarantee from the
manufacturers that If, after three weeks
wear, they do not prove perfectly salts
factory IN every respect the price paid will
rafnnda6 al
only ones that the manufacturer has ever
dared to guarantee in this way. The
particular advantages claimed for these
over other corsets are that they need no
''breaking in" that invalids can wear
them with ease and comfort, and owing
to their peculiar construction they will
last twice as long as an ordinary corset.
They have had the unqualified indorse
ment of every physician who has examin-
ed them, as well as the most prominent
ladies who have been induced to try them,
the universal verdict being ave will
never wear any other make" Nine. Patti
first wore the Health Preserving Corset"
in the opera of "Faust," in Chicago last
April, and the next day she wrote to the
manufacturers that they were just what
she wanted, but never could obtain be-
fore. Although only introduced in New
York last January they have already met
with marvellous success, and are sold in
all the principal dry goods stores.
Young ladies to whom the coming of
summer means a prolonged season of gay
ETY. and exercise either at the seaside or
among the mountains will need all the
support and freedom of movement that
the best corset can give them, and it is
particularly to this class that Balls
Health Preserving Corsets recommend
themselves.
As all popular and extensively adver-
tised articles are initiated by unscrupu-
lous manufacturers, Balls corsets are not
an exception. Insist on purchasing one
with the name Ball on the box if you de-
sire perfect satisfaction .-New York
Times.

Colonel feeling unwell, proceeded to the
mountains to recuperate, but instead, he
returned home to die. Malaria had crept
into his system. Typhoid set in. The
fever got the better of the best medical
skill within reach, and on Saturday morn
ing, at O'Clock, Aug. 90, 1885, he de-
parted this life. The news was received
as shock all over the city, as but few
had known of his sudden attack of serious
illness. OF his moral record we refer to
the old church with which he was closely
affiliated-to the First Presbyterian. He
was her child, her servant and one of her
chief officers, and to the interests of this
church, he devoted much of his time. 1t
is said that he was not member of the
church, but regular attendant; however
in this capacity he was Secretary of the
Board of Trustees aud Vice Collector of
pew rents. His sympathies were such
with the church, that his views were in
harmony with the spiritual as we'll as
The funeral of the deceased took place
at the family mansion, on Brunswick
Avenue, on Wednesday, Aug. Goth. A
very large assemblage was present. The
officers of the Seventh Regiment were
present in uniform. Speaker Armstrong
of the House of the Assembly was pres
ent, as we'll as several members of the
House and of the Senate. Judges Nixon
and Scudder, and other notabiities of the
legal class were present. Rev. DIR. John
Hall offered prayer, and Rev. DR.. Dixon
rendered feeling and sympathetic adj
dress. Rev. Mr.. Barbour, Rector of the
Trinity P. e. Church, at the request of
the parents, officiated at the grave. The
day was beautiful, and the cortage long
The interment was about three miles in
the country.
Thus closes the life of one of the most
promising and active young men in our
city. A man of activity, of progress and
of local ambition, but few could hold such
large acquaintanceship without single
blemish of enmity. Deserving of all the
honors that he had received we part with
him with that feeling of reluctance, akin
to grief; and although his remains
have returned to the mother earth and
his mortal frame now rests beneath the
beautiful green of Ewing Cemetery, still
we feel assured that the immortal spirit
of Benjamin f. Chambers will find refuge
on that evergreen shore, in the land be-

The following items about "old
times have been furnished by Mr.. D. B
Kirkpatrick, of Ringoes, an aged and
highly esteemed citizen of Ringoes
In the year 1889, the Fall preceding tn e
election of William Henry Harrison, Hon.
Samuel L. Southland delivered a lecture at
a political meeting in our village. South
ard is well remembered by many in this
section.
Fifty years ago there were no peach
orchards within five miles of Ringoes. 1t
would be safe to say, there are now over
100000 trees.
About sixty years ago farms in this vi
entity sold for $40 per acre fifty years
ago they sold for $50 per acre ; twenty
years ago they sold for over 800 per
acre.
In a deed for land at Ringoes, dated
August 25th, 1726, the Old York Road
was called the "King's Highway
Fifty years ago Ringoes was the tho
roughfare through which people from the
lower part of the state, passed on their
way to Schooleys Mountain Springs, then
a popular resort. Bonaparte, who lived in
princely style at Bordentown, N. j., used
to stop over here for the night. He was
attended by several servants, out he car
ried his eatables with him and did his own
cooking, as he was afraid of being poison
ed at this period. Major Lowe kept the
hotel here at that time. -H
Some sixty years ago there was what
people called the Pass. storm. 1t was a
snow accompanied by very heavy winds,
uprooting hundreds of trees in this vi
cinity. recollect of it having blown down
an English walnut tree on the property of
Samuel Summers, that was full Of nuts.
The tree measured one foot in diameter.

A meeting is to be held in Fleming ton,
September 18th, at 80 P. M. for the
purpose of forming Historical Society,
in and for the county of Hunterdon. In
this all should feel an interest. The re-
cent county history was too hastily got

history of our county, and there is no bet

ty take hold of the matter as they should,
no doubt one of the early quarterly meet
ings will be held in this vicinity.

In New York, on Tuesday, "Tom" Da.
Wis had James 7. Holland, Texas real
estate dealer, and John p. Johnson, of
Mulchell county, Texas, in his Office at
IS Reade street, to sell them $4,000 of
counterfeit money for $500. The money
was counted out and put in sachel on a
desk near a partition where "Tom's"
brother Theodore was on the other side
to change the money for bundles of paper
done up like it. After paying out his
$500 Holland saw the move to defraud
him, and, pulling out his revolver, fired
two balls into "Tom" Davis, killing him,
and fired into the partition after Theodore
who was not hit.

The Elizabeth Journal Is of opinion
that the population of the State is rush

crowding them. The only final support
of any community is in the ground. The
rapid multiplication of mere exchangers

NEW HOPE AND BUCKS COUNTY, PA,

The water is still absent from the
canal. When the water will be let into
it we do not know at present.
The pleasant change in the weather
during the past few days, has given quite
an impetus to business, and we note quito
an improvement in our business circles
here and in our vicinity.
Mrs. A. J. Beaumont was taken seri-
ously i'll, last Thursday evening, and for
time was in critical condition, but I'M
der the care of her physician, DR.. Geo. r.
Parry, she is in fair way for recovery.
There have been several cases of Sc
we're illness in our neighborhood, so Sc
we're that we can guess what would be the

especially. "a
We paid visit to the Trout Hatch
ing and Poultry Establishments of our
friends, the Messrs. Thompson, of Sole
bury, yesterday Tuesday, and were kind
ly shown around. The main features of
the business are quickly apparent to the
observing eye, as Mr.. T. has such an ad-
mirable system for conducting his opera
lions, that everything seems open to the
view. No complicated rules of proceed
ing, and no secrets; all plain, common
sense methods, in all matters pertaining
thereto. In the egg Matching poultry de-
pariment, we saw four 'Incubators, :" in
which by means of heat from warm water
and by aid of electricity, the chicks are
Matched. There are several houses in which
the various broods are reared. In some
of these we found magnificent specimens
of rare and valuable fowls, full grown and
very pretty in their appearance. We
were informed by the proprietor that he
had on hand at present, eight hundred
fowls, requiring two bushels of feed to
be given them every day. This is the
season when the poultry breeding bust
ness is at its height and as the season de-
clines somewhat, Mr.. T. will again re-
sumo his wonted activity in trout hatch
ing, in conjunction with the present valu-
able addition to his business. We also
observed quite an interesting and new
method of working the "Thompsonian
Creamery" which must be seen to be ap-
preciated. mo ice reqnired.) Many
other things we observed, but we cannot
do them any justice in short notice.

The Hunterdon county Bible society.


The Hunterdon Co. Bible Society met in
tie Reformed Church at White House, on
Tuesday, 25th ult. On account of the incle-
mency of the weather the attendance was
not extra large. The meeting was open
ed with prayer by the President, Rev. Mr..
Krechting, of the Lutheran Church, New
Germantown. The hymn, "Crown Him
Lord of All" being sung, Rev. E. S.
Jamison, of the Mechanicsville Methodist
Church, read the Scriptures, and Rev.
John Scarlet, led in prayer.
Rev. W. E. Davis, of Lebanon, preach
ed powerful sermon from Deut. 30; 30,
"Secret things belong unto the Lord our
God; but those things which are revealed,
belong unto us and to our children for
ever, that we may do all the words of this
law" He spoke briefly of Gods power,
and of His reserved power; then argued,
first, as to His revealed power in nature
and our surroundings. He said that the
revelation of truth is ours, not only to
keep intact, but bequeathed to us as a
legacy to hand down to our children and
children's children.
The names of the delegates being called
and the minutes of the last meeting read
the session adjourned for dinner. There
the ministers and delegates did their
duty with earnestness. The congregation
had supplies enough to feed all that came
and large quantities over. The collation.
furnished nearly $50 with dinner.
The afternoon exercises were opened
with singing, when the Rev. Adm.
Thompson of New York city, led in
prayer. Reports of the various COM
mites were next heard. The treasurer
reported $451 50 balance in the treasury.
Suitable resolutions were adopted relative
to the death of Hon. F. T. Frelinghuysen,
late secretary of the American Bible So
ciety, and J. Higgins, of this Society.
Rev. Mr.. Blattenberger, who was to de-
liver the afternoon address, being absent
on account of the funeral of his brother
in-law, Rev. Abram Thompson, Rev. J.
N. Stigers, of New York, and s. F. Allen,
of South Bend, Ind, made short ad-
dresses.

and Rev. Marion T. Conklin and Rev.
John Scarlet, vice-presidents. Rev. Geo.
s. Mott was retained as correspondinp
