1t is remarked that there is very little
discussion over the last injunction the
water company secured against the bor-
ough and joint committee 1t is true that
there has not been much public discussion.
1t is al under cover, so far as the public
water works people are concerned. They
are nervous and really do not seem to
know how to take the matter. Some of
them have admitted that they expect to be
defeated in the Pottsville court, but they
qualify the admission with the statement
that the borough of Shenandoah cannot
win case at Pottsvil'e aud that when tho
Supreme Court is reached the matter will
be decided in their favor. l fear this hope
will not avail much. One thing is certain
if all matters surrounding this water farce
could get tefore the courts the water COM
pany would knock out the boomers in the
tribunal of appeal, as we'll as in the lower
court as easy as rolling of a log A
reputable citizen complains that he was
duped into voting for the increase of debt.
He says that when asked to vote for the in
crease he plainly told the party who made
the solicitation that he would not vote that
way if a taxation of any kind would be
put on the people, He was assured that
this would not be done. Now that levy
of s per cent has been made the aforesaid
reputable citizen is like maddened bull
! The revulsion of feeling is not limited tc
one case, and when the boomers again ask
the people for their votes they will find a
hornets about their heads.

attained the age OF about seventy years, her
hair turned pure white. This was expected;
but about year ago her hair began
dsrkening and is now as black as jet.
There is no doubt about tho change, nor
was any artificial means used to produce it,
SO that the case is certainly one of the most
remarkable recorded in the annals Of
medical history. The lady was not con-
scious of any change in diet or in her
physical condition that would justify the
curious phenomenon, SO it is absolutely
inexplainable on any known hypothesis.

Canned fruits have become so common
and have come into such general use that it
s not surprising to hear of poisonings
from their use. No serious cases have yet
occurred in our midst from this cause, but
several per-ons have been made quite sick
from the effects of eating canned fruits put
up in tin cans. The acid in can of pine
apples nearly killed two people at Consho-
hocken the other day, and quite number
of cases of poisonings are reported from
elsewhere. These poisonings occur only
where the article eaten is put up in tin cans.

glass but there is positive safety in canned
fruits put up in glass vessels.

the most important of which is the pro-

aged, can spend their spare moments
proftably in reading such literature as the
