The Value

OF Hoods Sarsaparilla as remedy for catarrh is
| daily becoming better known, as people recog-
niZe In its use the commonsense method of
treating this disease. Local applications can do
but little good. Catarrh is constitutional In
character and therefore requires constitutional
remedy. Hoods Sarsaparilla attacks the dis
ease at its foundation by eliminating the i'm
purties In the blood which cause and feed it, and
by restoring the affected membrane to healthy
condition. A book containing full information
will be sent free to all who wish 1t.

The Reporter-Journol and the
Ioaoamda Repu6Iican both, give
some very strong reasons in their
last weeks issue, why the Republi-
cans of Bradford county should
vote for their regular nominees. For
our part we can not perceive how
men with spark of republican
principles IN their souls can vote the
dictations of that sheet called the
4rgus, which has during its ex-
Stence degraded the Republican
PARTY of Bradford county to its ut
most extent. 1t is to be hoped by
the believers of republicanism that
there is no truth in the predictions
Of the Argus that good portion OF
the Republican party of Bradford
county, will vote the fusion ticket.
We have every reason to believe that
the Cheney clement of both North
Orwell and East Smith6eld will
stand firm for the regular nominees
Of the good old Republican party.

protect the boys that fought to save
this country, ought not to be called
citizen, nor owned by the Almighty.
He is traitor to his country, and

breathes. Your man Pattison has
done nothing but insult the soldiers.
Say, just read his record, he will
read his own record by the light of

Where the wood pecker pecks, and the

And the stradde bug straddles around.

A Cold Winter Predicted.

The mean tempature ofSeptember
was below normal this year and there
are signs, meteroloeists tell US. that
the coming winter is not to have the
ethereal mildness Of the last. DIR.
M. A. Veeder, who has made speci-
atty of sun spots, auroras and mag
netic storms. is convinced that a
winter of some severity is in store
for America. He bases his passage
upon the slight increase Of auroras
noticeable this autumn. It has
been observed that these electric
discharges in the upper air coincide
with disturbances of our atmosphere
that invariably produce cold. The
appearance of Northern Lights at
this season has been followed in
many previous years by cold wealth
er, and the prediction of severe
winter may be taken as reasonable
A winter of uniform frosty weather
would be a welcome novelty.-Eg.

A VERDICT OF $1,000 RENDERED


A law suit that is of interest to
Ievery borough in the State has just
been decided in the Supreme Court
of Pennsylvania against the town of
Shamokin. 1t would he we'll for the
authorities of LaPorte to take heed
and warning by the result. In 1885
Mrs. Robinson, who lives on Shamo-
kin street, ,neShamokin. wanted to
put down new sidewalk in front OF
her property. She applied to the
Council, and the borough regulator
gave her grade and down went the
pavement. Her next door neighbor.
John Weir, had his pavement down
and after Mrs. Robinson's was in
place it was nine inches higher than
Weir's. This made high step and
the Council notified Weir to raise
his side walk. Weir paid no atten-
tion to the notice and Council did
not move in the matter after notify
ing him. In May, few weeks
after Weir had been notified,
Mrs. Mary Reddy came walking
along Mrs. Robinson's side walk one
dark and gloomy night. and when
she reached the end where the step
of nine inches dropped her to Wejr's
sidewalk she fell and broke her
right arm. Her husband employed
two attorneys, Messrs. Ryon and
Mahan to bring two suits against the
town of Shamokin. One for the i'm
juries she had received from the
broken arm, and the other from the
loss he had sustained by reason Of
losing her service while the arm was
getting well. Messrs. Boyer. of
Sunbury, and Gillespie, of Shamo-
kin. appeared for the borough. In
March, 1889, the suit for damages
the wife had sustained, was tried be-
fore Judge Rockefeller, and after
stubborn contest the jury rendered
verdict of 81 .207 in favor of Mrs
Reddy. In May following the hus-
bands suit came up for damages he
had sustained through the loss of
her services and Mr.. Reddy got a
verdict of 1912. The case was then
taken to the Supreme Court l,y
Messrs. Boyer and Gillespie and
argued there in full. The court of
last resort rendered their decision
on Monday, sustaining Judge Rookie
teller and the borough will have to
pay. The whole sum with the costs
amount to $4,000. The ground taken
by the Supreme Court was that
after the council had given Weir
notice to fix his sidewalk and he did
not do it, it was their duty to make
him do so at once, and their falling
to do this made them liable for the
damages.

Bradford the home of Emery the Y.
Y. and H., man last week and was
greeted by one of the largest politi-
cal gatherings ever gazed upon in

made by Emery and was cheered in
the extreme By the enthusiastic
crowd. When Emery's name was
mentioned it was Kissed, which in
ferred that he is q reptile of the
lowest type. Poor Emery.

him materially.
