AND CHARLEY WHO KILLED JACOB
MARKS.

The murderers of Jacob Marks in
Sullivan county, last month, are being
diligently tracked by detectives, and
no stone will be left unturned to ap-
prehend them. Harris and Charley,
for by this title they operated as a
firm, lost no time in getting back to
New York, and from that point
officers are now tracking them.
Harris is man not over 80 years
of age, FIVE feet seven inches in height,
dark complexion, dark hair, brown
eyes, and weighs about $50 pounds ;
he wears small moustache, and is a
good talker. Charley has reddish hair,
light complexion, rather heavy sandy
moustache, is little taller than his
companion in crime, although about
the same weight and age. Both were
peddlers and natives Of Germany, and
speak somewhat broken English.
A reward of $500 has been offered
for their capture-SI5o of that sum
being offered by the commissioners OF
Sullivan county, $Ioo by the sheriff OF
that county, and $25o by the brothers
of their victim.
1t is thought by some people here
that the New York officers already
have clue, and that the arrest OF the
men is only question of time.

The plague of breaking lamp
chimneys is abroad in the land.
There are two sorts of chin
neys; brittle and tough. Ninety
nine in a hundred are brittle.
The worst are imported from
Germany. The best are Mac
beth's "Pearl-top"& "Pearl-glass." "
Two sorts as to workman
ship; fine and coarse. The
fine are Macbeth's "Pearl-top"
and "Pearl-glass." The coarse
are rough and out of proper
ton; misfits and misshapen ;
they do not make a good
draft they smoke.
Two sorts as to glass trans
parent and gray. "Pearl-top"
and Pearl-glass" are clear, fine
and tough-not tough against
accident-tough against heat.
Call for "Pearl-top" or
"Pearl-glass" chimneys.

Talking of patent medicines-you
Know the old prejudice. And the
Doctors some of them are between
you and us. They would like you to
'nlnk that what's cured thousands
won't cure you, You'd believe in
patent medicines if they didn't profess
10 cure ecerything-and so, between
'he experiments of doctors, and the
experiments of patent medicines that
are sold only because there's money in
,ne stuff" you loose faith in ecerv-
thing.
And, you can't always tell the pres
snphon that cures by what you read in
,ne papers. So, perhaps. there's no
better way to sell a remedy, than to
Tell the truth about it, and take the
