OF going without the COM
forts and luxuries of life-these
are the things that go far
toward making your life worth
living-when these comforts
and iuxuries, and necessities,
too, can be obtained with so
little exertion, so small an out
lay of money, and on such
easy terms.
The firm of P. /. Walsh &
Co, with their immense stores
and warehouses in Philadel-
phia and Wilmington filled to
overhowing with everything in
the line of Furniture, Carpets,
Stoves, Housefurnishing Goods
and Wearing Apparel, and
everything heart could wish for,
are the pioneers in the credit
business and have established
a reputation for good goods
and fair dealing which cannot
be discounted.
They buy in large quanti-
tiles, for cash, and thereby
securing heavy discounts are
able to sell on credit to the
.consumer as low as other
houses sell for cash, and in
many instances much lower.
1t is one of their rules of busi-
ness to satisfy their patrons,
and any one purchasing goods
from them can return the
goods and get the money back
if they are not just as repre-
sented.
Now, we ask again, What's
the use of going without the
comforts of life, when, with
the small payment of one dol
lar on a bill of ten dollars and
one dollar a week you can get
almost anything you want, and
get it and use it at once. Give

Daniel and his wife, Sarah w. Daniel, have
filed separate answers to the bill in equity
recently filed in the common pleas by the
Rev. Isaac L. Nicholson, d. d., and the
Rev. Robert Ritchie, trustees for St. Chry-
sostom's Protestant Episcopal mission, ia
which the Rev. Daniel is charged with hav-
ing collected money for the mission which
he had not accounted for, and that he had
made improper conveyances of real estate
TO his wife, etc. Mr.. Daniels denies all this
and says that when he took charge OF the
mission he agreed 70 live on the offerings
of the people In earlier years his income
had been as low as s4O0 per year, but as his
work became better known his support was
liberal, and in ten years he received $4,000.
The wife denies that her husband has CON
veyed any property 10 her.

Enos, a Washington inventor, who wants
20 supply the house with an electrical ap-
paratus for recording the votes OF MEM

hy the adoption and nse Of this invention
a great deal Of time might be saved that
is now lost In the slow and tedious opera
tion Of calling the roll. Thus far during
this session the roll has been called three
hundred times. occupying at least half an
hour for each call, or thirty average work
ing legislative days OF five hours each.
Fiye-sixths Of this time, or twenty-five
days, Mr.. Enos claimed might have been
saved had his invention been ia use. He
estimated the cost OF putting his system
in operation in the house at about $50 900,
and asked for a small appropriation to
construct a small working model with
which TO demonstrate the practical utility
Of the system. The committee has taken
the matter under consideration.
