precarious condition OF his health.

anything stands n test of fifty years
among discriminating people, it is
pretty good eviden ce that there Is
merit somewhere. Few, ii any, med
icipes have met with such continued
success and popularity as has marked
the progress Of Brandreth's Pills,
which, after trial OF over fifty years,
are conceded to be the safest and most
effcctual blood purifier, tonic and al
terative ever introduce to the puplic
That this is the result of merit, and
that Brandreth's Pills perform all
that is claimed for them, is conclusive
ly proved by the fact that those who
regard them with the greatest favor
are those who have used them the
longest. Brandreth's Pills are sold in
every drug and medicine store, either
plain or surgar-coated.
A CHASTITY FIND.-On Tuesday OF
this week, while Isaac Smith was
plowing corn on farm adjoining the
land of Tillman Ronig, about two
miles west Of Adamsburg, he found
his horses unwilling to go to the fence.
Upon investigation he was horrified
to find the body of dead man lying
in the fence corner. He at once rec
ognized it as the body of Gransom
Camp, q resident of Beavertown,
aged about 30. A revolver was lying
by his side with one chamber empty,
and it is supposed that he committed
suicide, but the bad state of decom-
position prevented a close ".examina.
tion. He was last seen In the vicinity
on Thursday Of last week. Eleven
dollars in money and some due-bills
were found on his person. The au~
thorities OF Beaver township were
notified and the Overseers of the
Poor purchased burial spot OF Mr..
Romig for $50 and paid $25 to two
men to bury him. He was of q vic>
ious disposition and inclined to in
sanity, which Is asserted as the cause
of the suicide.
The credit system as II exists In this
State and the laws which govern 1t, is
the cause Of many an honest man be-
coming dishonest and careless of ray
ing his just debts. What do you
think Of man who is trusted by q
kind hearted butcher, merchant, or
printer for several weeks or months,
and refuses to pay when asked to do
so, just because he thinks or knows,
that he can't be compelled to pay?
Such men are not to be trusted
anywhere. Speaking OF the credit
system, few words to young men will
not be out Of place. Don't put all
you earn and moro upon your back,
for the young lady who is attracted
by fine or stylish clothes is Ia fact not
a very rich discovery, and In all pro-
pability poor housekeeper. II you
have small balance at the end of
the week or month, take second
thought before you pay it out for
luxuries, but whatever you do don't
run In debt. Inthis splendid country
OF ours, there ara fine opportunities
for industrious, economical aud sober
young men, aud he who guards his
honor BY living within his income. r.
