License Facts.

The Voice collects and collates nu-
merous statistics bearing on the liquor
traffic. 1t is the only paper in the
country which expends time and
money in this business and the dark
objects brought to light by these re-
searches into the hidden ways of the
trade" are often startling. In the
issue of December 26th a table of 70
high license and low license cities is
given. The following is a summary of
the result:
Forty-One high license cities having
an aggregate population of 4,756, 900
with an average license fee of $665, bad
1926 saloons. 3S low license cities
with a population of 1857 900, with an
average license fee of 1922 have 25,783
saloons, about double as many saloons
to the population. The arrests for dis
orderly conduct in the high license
cities were 121 ,877, and in the low H.
cense cities 122,17O, difference of only
3O2 in aseries of years covered by the
table.

Presbyterian Revision.

Ofthe Presbyteries which have voted
on Revision thus far, twenty have ex-
pressed their approval, and twelve
have voted in the negative. The
former include those of the cities of
New York, Brooklyn, Buffalo, Roches-
ter, Baltimore, and Cincinnati. Alle-
gheny and Pittsburg have voted in the
negative, and at a subsequent meeting
OF Plttsburg, majority voted to re-
consider, but was prevented by the
rule requiring twO-thirds for that pur-
pose. This sufficiently indicates the
strong drift of feeling in the Presbyte-
rian Church in favor of a shorter and
less scholastic confession than that de-
vised by the divines at Westminster.
And it is notable that some of those
who opposed revision long after the
question had been started by the gen
eral assembly, are now among its most
strenuous supporters. ThHs DR.. J, T.
smith, of Baltimore, published several
articles against the proposal, but after
further consideration helped to carry
his own presbytery to its support.
There has been no instance of such a
change in the opposite direction.
NNe3S OANNO VI w 0SuluSbOus Il BYD6
OF the ultra conservatives falls back on
the Adopting Act of 1889 as putting
an end to all chances of revision, since
1t declares that two thirds of the Pres
byteries must agree before any change
can be made. NJ. Henry Day of New
York, characterizes this provision of
the Adopting Act just as we did some
weeks ago.-as an attempt of one leg.
islature to tie the hands of its success
sors,-and shows from eminent legal
authorities that such action is entirely
ultra Uires. He also shows that the
Adopting Act does not form a part of
the recognized Constitution of the
Church, which provides for alterations
to be approved by a simple majority of
presbyteries, as was done in striking
out the clause of the confession which
forbade marriage with a deceased wife's
sister.-American

Have You Read
The Philadelphia Times
this Morning?

The Times is the most extensively cir
culated and widely read newspaper pub
lished in Pennsylvania Its discussion
of public men and public measures is in
the interest of public integrity, honest
government and prosperous industry,
and it knows no party or personal allegi-
ance in treating public issues. In the
broadest and best sense family and gen.
eral newspaper.

Five Strong Points of S. S. S.

First. 1t is entirely vegetable, con-
tains no minerals or poison of any
kind, and builds up the system from
the first dose.
Second. It cures Cancer Ofthe Skin.
No other remedy or treatment has
ever cured it.
Third. 1t cures Hereditary Blood
Taint, even in the third and fourth
generation. No other remedy has
ever done it.
Fourth. 1t has never failed to Grad
icate Scrofula from the system.
Fifth. 1t cures contagious Blood
Poison in all its stages by eliminating
the horrible virus from the system,
thus giving relief from all the conse-
quences of this bane of the human
family.
S. S. S. builds up the general health
of the patient, instead of pulling it
down, as is the case with the Mercury,
Potash, aud old Sarsaparilla mixtures.
1t is harmless to the most delicate
woman or child, yet such is its healing
power that it searches out the poison
in the blood and roots it out entirely,
thus giving nature an opportunity to
assert itself, and as a consequence the
general health is rapidly improved,
and the cure is effected.

Another black eye for Governor
Hill. Mr.. Russell, the democratic
candidate for Governor of Massachu-
setts last fall, and son-in-law of Mr..
Bayard has written letter to Senator
Chase,Of Albany, testifying that the
BallOt-Reform law worked admirably
in that State in 1889. "It was a COM
plete and wonderful success" says
Mr.. Russell; "This is so far as l know,
is the;universal judgement" The let
ter is long one, but the Governor
will not find word in it in opposition
to the exclusive official ballot.

Better Times at Milford.

With four vessels to be built and
the new building enterprises now un-
der way, Milford mechanics have
rather an encouraging outlook for
1890. The few weeks of dry weather
has enabled farmers to cut and haul
logs to our saw mills, and this has
caused a general enliving of trade.
The farmer markets raw material and
gets cash for it, the mills employ labor
to work the logs into lumber, and this
circulates money in many channels.
If the weather will just lose its "grip"
the good folks of the country will be
happy ChrOUicLe.

The Ladies Delighted.

The pleasant effect and the perfect
safety with which ladies may use the
liquid fruit laxative, Syrup of Figs
under all conditions make it their
favOrite remedy. 1t is pleasing to the
eye and to the taste, gentle, yet effect
ual in acting on the kidneys, liver
and bowels.

As family medicine we cannot too
highly recommend Laxador the famous
household remedy, It should always
be kept on hand.
It regulates the bowels, cures diar-
rh@a, dysentery and wind collie; in

Strawbridge & Clothier's S
Monthly, Jan. 1890.

The ninth volume of this periodic ical
begins with this number, which give ev-
idence that it is fulfilling its mission as
a magazine for women. The frontis-
piece is a reproduction of a photograph
of the architects drawing of the City
Hall, Philadelphia; which is the larg-
est building in the United States.
There is the usual choice miscellany of
fashion, needlewOrk designs, house
keepers hints. and similar matters,
written by ladies especially versed in
the various subjects treated. The lit
erary articles conclude with new piece
of music for the piano. Following the
foregoing is monthly bulletin of dry
goods, described and priced; which
will be useful as a guide to shopping
by mail, when purchases cannot be
made in person. The Monthly is pub
lished at 80 cents a year, by Straw
bridge & ClOthier, Philadelphia.
