The "Tippecanoe" Voters.

We had thought that our last issue
would close out the list Of the old
Tippecanoe voters yet living in the

until all arc heard from. We add Is
this week, and it ia said that there
are few back. Slipperyrock twp,

that twp, still in the lead, with Slip
peryrock now a close second. In on
ly two twps., Venango and Clear
field, are there none reported. The
whole number now on the list is 225,
Could we add those now outside the
county, but in it in lS4O, the list
would still be increased, but the rule
we started out on prevents US from
inserting their names.

Hon. WILLIAM l.. ScoTT, the no.
ted Democrat who succeeded by his
money in getting twice elected to
Congress from the Erie district Of this
state, now declines to again be a
candidate. He evidently snuffed de-
feat in the breeze and concluded that
discretion is the better part of valor.
The Republicans intend now to re-
deem that district and Mr.. Scott evil
dently thought to make his escape
from defeat in time. The redemption
of that district, and this one also, by
leaving Mr.. Norman Hall at home,
will make two of a change in the
Pennsylvania delegation alone, and
count four of difference in the next
Congress. Similar changes over the
country will make the next House OF
Congress strongly Republican.

nana Of Hope Re.opentng.

The Woodstown Band Of Hope will re-
open fer the season on Sunday afternoon
next, Oct. 7th. al quarter before four
o'clock in the w, G.. T. U. room and will
close promptly at q quarter before five.
Most of you Will notice the change from
Saturday TO Sunday. After carefully con
sidering this matter and looking at it in
different lights, ! have thought this change
would be advantageous. On Saturday
most of the young people are engaged so
that their presence is impossible. The
children are encouraged when they have
older ones in attendance. It is right after
Sunday-school and so many of our young
men are members of different schools and
| am hoping to nave them drift right in
here to help this good work on, Boys at a
certain age consider themselves too large
for the Band of Hope, consequently drift
from us. II the older young men Will
come in to visit us I have hopes that these
lost ones will be reclaimed. Then | am
sure Of the support of our young ladies
who cannot attend on Saturdays. For a
few months at least it would be impossible
for ne to have charge of this on Saturday,
and as there seemed to be no one else to
take it have made the change. We all
have enough to do on Sunday, but we are
willing to add this and work a little
harder. Now will you do your part? VIII
you urge your children to come? They
are already dressed for sunday-school-a
reason ! have often had given me why
children don't come on Saturday, you
have not time to dress them. If it con-
fficts a little with your tea, the lesson they
learn there is more good to them than the
inconvenience is to you of waiting. We
will close promptly. Parents should con-
slider it a duty they owe to their children
to send them to this place. Many of your
boys whom you know not of are seen on
these streets smoking cigarettes, which
harms them almost as much as rum. We
use the triple pledge, Intoxicating
liquors, tobacco and profanity. VIII
you help us save your little ones?

endeavored to keep from the public that
the sale of bulbs might not be diminished
thereby.

and trying in every Christian like way to
reach the great mass outside the church.
They were reorganized and endorsed by
the General Conference at their session of
May, 1888. Il is a labor of love, as they
work without salary, content with a bare
support. The motto they have adopted Is
"For Jesus Sake" and they are doing a
good work for the sake of Him who died
upon the cross. W. j. SMITH.

ssDOCTORING OLD TIME
"A striking PIctuPe-A Revival of OLE
Time SEnEpIicIfies.

In one of %lIarper's issues is given a very
fine illustration of Roberts celebrated
painting, known as "Doctoring Old Time
1t represents a typical old-timer. with his
bellows, blowing the dust from an ancient
clock, with its cords and weights carefully
secured. One of these clocks in this gen
Grafton is appreciated only as a rare relic.
The suggestive name, "Doctoring Old
Time brings to our mind another version
of the title, used for another purpose
"Old Time Doctoring."
We learn, through a reliable source, that
one of the enterprIsing proprietary medi-
cine firms of the country, has been for
years investigating the formulas and med
ical preparations used in the beginning OF
this century, and even before, with a view
of as~certaining why people in our great
grandfathers' time enjoyed a health and
physical vigor SO seldom found in the
present generation. They now think they
have secured the secret or secrets. They
find that the prevailing opinion that then
existed, that Mature has a remedy for
every existing disorder" was true, and
acting under this belief, our grandparents
used the common herbs and plants. Con-
tinual trespass upon the forest domain, has
made these herbs less abundant and has
driven them further from civilization, I'M
til they have been discarded, as remedial
agents because of the difficulty of obtain
ing them.
II. III. Warner, proprietor of Warner
safe cure and founder of the Warmers OBJ
servatory, Rochester, N. Y, has been
pressing Investigations in this direction,
into the annals of old family histories, I'M
til he has secured some very valuable for
mulas, from which his firm is now prepar-
ing medicines, to be sold by all druggists.
They will, we learn, be known under the
general title of 'sWarner's Log Cabin rem
edies." Among these medicines will be a
"sarsaparilla, " for the blood and liver,
"Log Cabin hops and buchu remedy" for
the stomach, etc., Log Cabin cough and
consumption remedy" Log Cabin hair
tonic, LOG Cabin extract" for internal
and external use, and an old valuable dis
eoyery for eatarrh, called "Log Cabin rose
cream" Among the list is also a clog
Cabin plaster and a clog Cabin liver
pill"
From the number Of remedies, it will be
seen that they do not propose to cure all
diseases with one preparation. 1t is be-
lieved by many that with these remedies 4
new era is to dawn upon suffering human
ity and that the close of the nineteenth
century will see these roots and herbs, as
compounded under the title of Warmers
Log Cabin remedies, as popular as they
were at its beginning. Although they
come in the form of proprietary medicines,
yet they will be none the less welcome,
for suffering humanity has become tired Of
modern doctorlng and the public. has great
confidence in any remedies put up by the
firm of which II. III. Warner is the head,

Comptroller p. T. Quinn was one of the
judges who at River Edge, this State, last
week decided q novel wager. Il. S.. Car
man, editor Of the R&raI beU Yorker,
last winter bet that he would raise
potatoes this season on a part of his
special lot of ground at the rate of more
than 700 bushels to the acre. Wilmer
Atkinson, of Philadelphia, accepted the
wager, the loser to pay the money 10 some
charity to be named by the judges. The
potatoes were planted by the French sys-
tenn in ten trenches fifteen inches wide and
six inches deep and three feet apart, meas
uring from middle to middle. Potato fer
t~ilizer, at the rate Of $50 pounds to the
acre, was strewn in tho bottom of the
trenches, about two inches deep of loose
soil drawn in over this, and all mixed to-
gether by drawing a Hexamer hoe along
in the trench. The potato sets were then
planted a foot apart. Two inches deep of
soil was drawn in overthe sets, and potato
fertilizer, at the rate of $50 pounds to the
acre, strewn over this and mixed as before.
Also powdered sulphur, at the rate Of 440
pounds to the acre, was sown in the
trenches, which were then filled up level.
The sulphur was used as a prevention
against wire worm. One row yielded at
the enormous rate of 1,076 bushels per
acre, one row at the rate of 298, one at 253
bushels, one at 693 and the last at the rate
of Cos bushels per acre, or all five rows
combined at the rate of 593 bushels of po-
tatoes per acre. So Mr.. Carman lost his

At the Opera House.

Tomorrow evening, Oct. 9th, will be
presented at the New Opera House the
great English mclo-drama Thrown upon
the World" We append an opinion from
the Baltimore American regarding the
same company and scenery rs will appear
in its production here: Thrown upon the
World a play founded on Charles Reade's
novel, Never too late to Mend, was pre-
sented at Kelly's Front Street Theatre
last night to an appreciatiyc audience.
This play, with its wonderful scenic eff
fects, makes it one of the most realistic
ever produced here. The great prison
scene where the horrors of the punishment
post are faithfully pictured, and the burn
ing hut are real and life-like. Mr.. Rufus
Scott was the star, and he does a clever
piece of work as Tom Shackford. The
characters by the rest of the company are
good, and come in for a share of the APP
plause."

The Record Broken

C. It. Stratton, of Bridgeton, had a pail
of homing pigeons liberated at Bellaire,
Ohio, on Friday, and they made the quick
est longest trip on record. One bird was
freed at SIT A. NJ, and the other at S.2e
A. NJ, on Friday. The first bird arrived
in Bridgeton at 5.24 that afternoon, max
ing the 450 miles in about 0 hours, or 14GG
yards per minute. The second pigeon ar
rived in Bridgeton at 9.04 A. NJ. Saturday.
The best time heretofore made in this
country by a pigeon was by the Golden
bird, who made 1904 yards per minute in
a 2O5 miles fly, but Mr.. STATIONS bird
went over twice the distance, and Travelled
nearly as many yards per minute.
