December viii be Mild.

In the western part Of Rockland county,
New York, lives a man about GO years of
age whose predictions about the weather,
he says, have never failed. During the
past thirty days he has been engaged in
making q forecast of the weather for Oeto-
Der, November and December, and says he
is willing to forfeit his reputation for We
raeity If his predictions are not verified to
the letter. The first week OF October, he
says, will be cool and cloudy, but no rain
will fall that week. On Sunday, October
z, a warm rain will set in, which will last
until the following Tuesday, when the
weather will clear off and be cooler.
There viii, he says, be plenty of frost in
the last half of October, but November
viii come in mild and dry. There will be
light snow twice in November, but it will
not in either instance remain on the ground
more than twelve hours. In the middle of
that month there will be a cold snap, last
ing two or three days, when it will get
much warmer. Thanksgiving day, he says,
will be cool and blustery in the morning,
threatening to storm, but at noon it will
clear away and be as pleasant as a Septem-
Der day. The first part of December, this
weather prophet says, will be cold and
windy, but this weather will not last more
than four or five days. The weather will
then moderate, and December as a whole
will be a very mild month for the season.
The man is making his forecast for .Janu-
airy, February and March, 1889.

Rough on .sQuart,, places.

The following clipping from the Atlantic
Journal, referring to a case in the Atlantic
County Courts last week, will show what
Judge Reed thinks about closing quart
places when complaint is made and sus-
tanned that drinking is carried an ''about
the premises
Tie case of Charles INLAND, indicted for
keeping a disorderly rouse at Pleasant
vile. was next tried. On the trial it was
proven that INLAND sold beer that was
drank on and about the premises. which
under the law passed last winter made
him guilty Of keeping a disorderly house
Judge Reed said this was the first case that
had been tried under the new law and adj
vised the jury to pay particular attention
to the fact that it was not necessary for the
beer to be drank upon the premises, but
about the promises. Ii the defendant
knew that the persons purchasing intend
ed to drink it about the promises, the de-
PENDANT was guilty as charged. The jury
acquitted the defendant. Judge Reed GEN.
sured the jury for bringing in such a YER
dict in the face Of such evidence and dis
charged them for the term.

Log Cabin Success.


What ails the young men!
Robert CARROTS father left him a for
time of twenty millions. He was from
childhood reared in luxury; he received a
splendid education with an especial train
ing into a thorough knowledge of railroad
management and was expected to succeed
his father as a railroad king.
Within three years after the RESPONSE
bilities which his fathers death threw
upon him were assumed, he is reported a
broken down man, with mind and health
permanently shattered.
George Law is another young man left
with millions of money, who is reported
among the f'wrecks." His father. bred a
stone mason, was of gigantic size and
strength, with commensurate brain power,
so he became a great contractor, then a
railroad king and left half a dozen millions
for his son to d~issipate. The young man
is a success as a dissipator.
The founders of both of these great es-
tates were born in the most humble walks
CT life, grew strong, mentally and physi-
cally, by simple living and honest labor
and developed into financial giants. Their
sons were reared in the lap of luxury and
developed into intellectual pigmies.
The great men of our country have not,
as a rule, come from the elegant mansions
of the cities, but from the Log Cabins of
the rural districts. Simple ways of living,
freedom from dissipation and enervating
pleasures, simple remedies for disease, eff
fective and which leave no poison in the
system, develop brawny, brainy men, who
compel the world to recognize their
strength and power.
The wholesome, old.fashioned Log Cabin
remedies are the safest and surest for
family use. Our grandmothers knew how
to prepare the teas and syrups of roots,
herbs and balsams which drive disease out
of the system by natural methods and
leave no after i'll effects. The most potent
of these old-time remedies were, after long
and searching investigation, secured by
II. II. Warner of safe cure fame, and are
now put out for the ''healing of the ma
tons" in the Warmers Log Cabin RENE
dies.
Regulate the regulator with Warmers
Log Cabin %Sarsaparilla and with pure
blood giving health, strength, mental and
bodily vigor, you may hope to cope sue
cessfully with the most gigantic financial
problems of the age, without wrecking
health and manhood.

Natures

Mrs. Joseph Taylor, living on Green
street, has in her yard two curiosities in
the shape of flowers. One is a dahlia
which by some freak of nature is bearing
upon one branch two different colored
flowers, one a pure white and the other a
yellow. The other flower is about five
feet high, we'll set with branches and leaves
till within about eighteen inches of the top
when the blossom puts forth, which is a
bright red color and consists of several
branches. It's size and color attracts a
great deal of attention, and it is called red
top for want of a more proper name.
Edward Eastlack, of Swedesboro, has
growing in his yard a plant resembling an
eggplant in every particular except the
fruit it bears, which is about the size and
shape of a tomato, and the color of which
is red when ripe. This somewhat remark
able freak of nature was the result of egg
plants and tomato plants being set out in
the same patch and the two mixing.

Hundreds of farmers who never kept al
account, would kill every ''pesky hen" OF
the Mrm, # it was not for the ''womer
folks.N The women intuitively know that
the hens do not ''eat their heads off every
six months" but properly kept, pay better
than anyother farm animals.
This IS true. 4 record, simple to keep,
so it would be used and show thc facts in
detail, wouldprove that every hen paid
profit. They aould be made to pay, from
ono to three dollars each. Mr. James l..
Burgess, NashuaaN. H., reported to the
Nashua telegraph that his wife made a
clean net profit last year of $50. 80 for eggs
alone, from only sixteen hens. He thinks
her success was largely due to using Sher-

rho p,Yn,s of pharmacists.

Cortlandt Parker, in q recent opinion 10
the State Pharmacists, thinks the new Law
does not alter their right to sell liquor as a
medicine, without a license. He says;
Whether or not the act will be held to
allow the right of pharmacists to sell with
out license, other than for the purpose Of
drink, after a prohibition election, it can
hardly be doubted that before sueh elec-
ton their rights are not at all changed by
the act of 1888. The laws prohibiting the
sale of intoxicants are penal and must be
strictly construed. They will be interpret
ed according to their intent only, at any
rate unless their language simply and clear
ly forbids particular acts. No statute in
New Jersey so far prohibits the sale or use
of liquor, having the property Of %intoxiea-
ton, as medicine or for any of the
arts of life. The object of our laws is to
advance morals, not to iniure health or TO
retard human progress. Tho honest and
prudent pharmacist will have no difficulty
in obeying them.
