CHEAPEST, BRIGHTEST, FRESHEST
AND BEST,
The Most Complete Newspaper Pub
lished in Philadelphia.

The Times is the most widely read news
paper published in Pennsylvania. Its
readers are among the more intelligent,
progressive people of every faith. 1t is
emphatically an independent newspaper
in everything; neutral In
nothing" Its discussion of public men
and public measures is always fearless and
in the interest of public integrity, honest
government and prosperous industry, and
it knows no party or personal allegiance
in treating public issues. In the broadest
and best sense family and general news
paper. n,t
The News of the tJnight's houie Times
has all the facilities of Ter. :. l1urnal-
ism for gathering news from all quarters
of the Globe, in addition to that of the
Associated Press, now covering the whole
world in its scope, making it the perfec-
ton of newspaper, with everything care
fully edited to occupy the smallest space.
The Coming Year will be one Of uni
versal public interest in the United States.
Party organs will perform their duties as
party interests shall demand, but the rap
idly growing intelligence and independ-
ence of the age calls for the independent
newspaper when great political conflicts
are to be met. Grave problems of reve-
nue., of finance, of commerce, OF industry,
of science, of art and of every phase of
enlightened progress are in constant
course of solution by the people of the
Union, and the progressive newspaper is
ever in the lead in every struggle for adj
Vancement.
The Times is a one-cent paper only in
price. 1t aims TO have the largest circula-
ton by deserving it, and claims that it is
unsurpassed in all the essentials of a great
Metropolitan newspaper.

Jail Delivery.

Sheriff Sawyer's three boarders bid
him adieu last evening without any
particular "fuss or feathers" About
eight in the evening the discovery was
made that the birds had flown, and
pursuit followed until morning but
without avail. The boarders we're
Aquilla Mong, Calvin Canoe, and
Chas. M. Kelly, confined for selling
liquor without license. Their escape
was quite an easy matter after it is
seen how il was done. The iron bolt
which passes through the wall and
forms the latch by which the cell door
is fastened or locked, is secured on the
inside by a piece of iron through
which it passes forming +, to which
it is fastened by q nut which has a
thread and is somewhat battered or
rivited. The ends of the I are fasten.
ed by wrought nails. They had cut
the wood from around these nails and
fled them off with new three. corner.
ed file Then the iron was easily un.
screwed, or rather, formed lever by
which the nut was unscrewed, the bolt
pushed through the wall, and the cell
door swung open, letting the prisoners
into the corridors. As has been Gus.
tomary with former Sheriffs one of the
cells was used as a pantry, and during
the day the door entering the corridor
is seldom locked. This door is usually
locked right after snpper, but last eve.
ming for the FIRST time, was not locked
Immediately, and Mrs. Sawyer had
only just stepped out for a few mo.
ments, during which the gentlemen
took their leave, doubtless having had
everything in readiness, and were only
waiting to take advantage of the first
opportunity.
They were tracked some distance
out of town, but the trail was finally
lost. The Sheriff feels considerably
bored over the affair, but when the
case is examined it is readily seen how
simple and easy the escape could be
made, and no blame be attached to
Mr.. Sawyer, who is unusually vigilant
and careful. The county will be saved
the expense of boarding the men for
the next three months, but they will
most likely be recaptured.

in different individuals 20 some extent.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at any time; if it is not white
and furred, IL is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order aud Diarrhea or Constipation may
be a symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often hemOrrhOids or even loss
of blood, There may be giddiness and
often headache and acidity or hatulenee
and tenderness in the pit OF the stomach.
To correct all this if not effect a cure try
Green's August Flower, it costs but tri-
tle and thousands attest its efficacy.

Ecuador's Ancient Civilization.

Here in these mountains, until the
Spaniards came, in 1884. existed a civil
cation that was old when Christ was cru
citied-acivilization whose arts were equal
to those of Egypt, wi ich had temples four
times the size of the Capitol at Washing
ton, from a single one of which the Span
iards drew %, 900 ounces of solid silver
nails, and whose rulers had palaces from
which the Spaniards gathered an 7unmeas-
ured quantity of silver and gold. Here
was an empire stretching from the equa
tor to the antarctic circle, walled in by
the grandest groups of mountains in the
world, whose people knew all the arts of
their time but that of war, and were con-
quered by 2l3 men under the leadership
of a Spanish swineherd, who could neither
read nor write American Magazine.

One of the most curious of the many
curious superstitions of women you can
have daily illustrated by taking a walk on
any crowded street. Wherever you find
two women walking together, should they
happen to stray apart 30 that another
person could pass between them, and
should such a person attempt to do so,
you will see them give a start of conster-
nation and draw together 50 as to prevent
this passage. 1t is, | believe, considered
the worst of bad luck, worse, even, than
passing under a ladder, to have a stranger
pass between two friends. The ladies, 1
believe, consider that there is only one
more deadly peril held in store for them
by chance. This is TO present your hus-
band or sweetheart with a pair of slippers,
an act which, | am told, will inevitably
lead to his walking away with your af-
fections.-Alfred Tumble in New York
News.

The common sense view of the subject
must be that whatever envy or u~npopularity
the great prehensile geniuses of finance may
attract, and however weighty their business
cares and responsibilities may be, the intel
lectuaI and physical stress TO which they are
subjected is not necessarily more intense or
tissue consuming thai that which falls to
the lot of many men with no income but
their salaries or wages. In times of extern
sive business reverses, thousands of such per-
sons are thrown out of employment. Or take
the case Of the average small business man
and employer of labor. He is much more
likely to fail than to succeed, for in every
business and profession the percentage of
failures far exceeds the percentage of sue
cesses. Thousands of these unsuccessful bust
ness men try their luck again and again until
their credit Is exhausted, and they straggle
into the always crowded ranks of the seekers
for work.
And too many of the displacers and the
displaced in the ever shifting world of labor
and business have small means and largo
families. The anxieties about making pro-
vision for their families must alone be a
mental and physical strain of the severest.
Now the sitters on the front bench of the
princes of finance after they have once
accumulated a sufficient reserve fund are
free from this sort of anxiety. The Astors
and the Goelets, for instance, don't have to
chatter, as some of their tenants may, over
the price of mutton or the size of a pint of
milk. Nor do the fluctuations in the COM
mercial world give them much concern.
They take care of their capital, which takes
care of them and lets them enjoy themselves.
