ring establishments there by the

people. Point Pleasant is said to be
the center of an immense natural
gas field. A little enterprise would

Sitting on the Safety Valve.

at the story of the green steamboat
fireman who sat on the safety valve
to prevent it leaking. Yes thousands
are repeating his folly every day.
They are troubled with blotches,
pimples, eruptions, salt rheum, boils
carbuncles, ulcers and old sores, and
are contenting themselves with sup

moving the cause. They sit on
these safety valves Dy which nature
is driving out blood impurities, in
stead of using DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, which cures by
removing the cause, which is in the
blood. 1t is wonderful blood pu-
rifier and invigorating tonic.

that the remedy will absolutely and

at the Sixth street Pennsylvaaia rail
way station to see him by alighting
at Ninth street and Maryland avenue.
This point is some three blocks south of

family were enabled, by taking carriages, to
go direct to the Arlington Hotel without
coming in contact with the multitude, which
filed all of the most prominent thorough
fares.
At 2:3O o'clock there were two or three
hundred people waiting in the vicinity Of
the hotel in expectation of General Harrison's
arrival.
At $50 o'clock the crowd cried: Here
they are" and there was a movement TO the
front, which the police promptly checked.
The first carriage stopped and the door was
instantly opened by an officer: Chairman
Britton emerged first followed ny Mrs. Har-
rison. Mr.. Britton then handed out BABY

murmur Of greeting
General Harrison next stepped out and for
a moment the crowd hesitated; then cheer
went up. The debarkation Of the remainder
Of the party was quickly accomplished ana
the crowd soon dispersed.
