An exchange very trnthfuily remarks
that nine times out Of ten when man
whines about being too poor to take
his county paper he can he sized up
about thus: He is ignorant, lazy, and
unthrifty; without influence or credit
in his neighborhood, and keeps pack
of half starved dogs and no hogs; let's
his wife chop wood, and let's bis chill
dren stay away from school. In mary
cases he spends more for whisky IN q
year than would pay for halt dozen
newspapers. This looks bad, but it is
pretty much the trutL, Argus.

Philip Buck and William brennan
of Beverly, went over to Riverside last
Sunday, and becoming intoxicated, had
a wrangle with some of the young men
of that place. The Dutchmen being
too large a crowd for the Beverly boys,
the latter took their heels and ran over
the bridge, into Delanco, their pursuers
being short distance behind. In front
of Harry Kriner's, Buck was overtaken
and was badly beaten. Mr.. Kriner
succeeded in getting Buck inside the
yard and stood guard over him with a
double-barreled gun. brennan took
refuge in the house of Mr.. Edwards
and the enemy were held in check by
a revolver being pointed at them. In
a short time number of the Delanco
young men put in an appearance when
the Riverside boys went to their homes.

A PERMANENT
EXHIBITION!

We have at our store 2 ears of
corn that contain 1900 and 400
grains respectively. An egg that is
the production of the vegetable and
not the animal kingdom, being the
exact size and shape of the egg of
the hen or Gallus Banckiva. A sweet
potato grown by Albert Hatcher of
Charleston, weighing 4 lbs. Nam
moth Rose potatoes grown by Chas.
Sewers of Charleston, that outstrip
anything we saw at the air. Our
windows are always ready to receive
anything our friends would like to
exhibit, and we have now commenc-
ed to make a permanent collection OF
unperishable goods which will al
ways be open to the public. 1t will
pay to come and see the above won
ders, and also examine our stock of
Fine Stationery as we can unhesitat-
ingly say there is no better writing
paper &C., anywhere in town.
-MEDAI.-
we don't want to NEEDLE with other
peoples affairs but we wish to an
nounce that at the Mount Holly
Fair we carried off the Medal as a
special premium for the Finest Fla
oring Extracts, Spice and Medicine
Cabinet. Everybody has firmly set
tied the fact beyond a doubt that the
"Ellsworth" Extracts are unexcelled
by any manufactured in this country.
Geo. Anthony, grocer in Burlington,
remarks those are reliable goods and
sell right along. Mr.. J. I. Evans,
grocer in Moorestown remarks, those
1avors give my customers entire sat
isfaction and prove a leading article.
Put up in 2oz, 4oz, lib, lib and
gallon bottles. Confectioners get
sample and quotations on these goods
before buying!
HOT! HOT! HOT! HOT!
We have instituted a practical re-
form in our native town by offering
to our fellow citizens a substitute for
Alcoholic drink. On the Sth. inst,
we started our Soda Fountain under
steam pressure and can now furnish
Hot Oh ocolate, Hot Coffee, Hot Gin
ger, Hot Lemonade, Hot Phosphate
and Hot Beef Tea, during the cold
season. The prudence of this move
can readily be seen. The compost
ton of these drinks are heathful in
being nourishing, stimulating and
palatable, of course we were the first
to start it but we heartily congratu-
late our brethren on initiating so
good an idea, it would undoubtedly
be better for our town if every drink
dealer would unfurl a temperance
banner and offer to our people that
which nourishes the system and not
that destructive to both body and
soul.

CIVIL SERVICE.
President Cleveland's Difficulties In
ReOrganizing the Commission.

WASHINGTON, October 2S.-An intimate,
personal friend OF the president, who talked
with him on the subject, to-day says he is ex-
periencing much difficulty i'll his effort to reor-
ganiZe the civil service commission He IS
aiming to secure for that service three men
who are well known to the country, and whose
names would be received as al ernest OF his
purpose TO give such character to the COM
mission as will give confidence to the friends
of the movement That he regards the reform
IN the civil service as one of the most impor-
tant features of his administration. At the
same time the president is seeking men whose
appointment will satisfy the people, whether
friendly 70 the movement or not, that
it is in the hands OF practical
reas ming men who are not
dOctrinaries, and who will consider and
suggest needed notifications to patron re
the reform in the execution of the law, without
| impairing its benefits. The salary of the po-
sit1on is only So 500, and few men OF proml-
nence, who possess the qualifications named,
are willing to make the sacrifice. The reason
why some of the many persons whose names
| suggest themselves 10 the public in connection
| with the place, are not appointed, is because
| they have already decllnei. No appoint
| ment has yet been determined on. Among
| those who have declined appointm mt Oh the

sides and merchandise about two and
a half miles south of the city, on the

them. The unbroken horse became
frightened at something and ran and
plunged furiously. The wagon was
overturned and Captain Cater thrown
