The laws of health are taught in our
schools; but not in way to be of much prac-
tical benefit and are never illustrated by liv-
ing examples, which in many cases could
easily be done. If some scholar, who had
contracted a cold was brought before the
school, so that all could hear the dry loud
cough, and know its significance; see the thin
white coating on the tongue and later, as the
cold developes, see the profuse watery ex
pectoration and thin watery discharge from
the nose, not one of them would ever forget
what the first symptoms of cold were. The
scholar should be given Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy freely, that all might see that
even severe cold could be cured in one or
two days, or at least greatly mitigated, when
properly treated as soon as the first symptoms
appear. For sale by G. NJ. Chenery.

tude Of Sources.
stephen Heberman, hungarian,
bookkeeper for Gottheb Heubner, a
rich Bethlehem drover, has embe2zled
$4,000 from his employer. Haberman
kept two sets of books, one for his pri-
vate use and one for his employers in
spection. The defalcation was discov-
cred Monday. An examination of the
books showed that he had started the
first day Heubner employed him, eight
months ago. A warrant is out for the
embezzler, but he has disappeared.
A fatal railroad accident occurred
Monday morning at Oakville. David
Rough, an aged farmer, while attempt
ing to cross the track, was struck by
the Atlantic express and instantly
killed. He was thrown forty feet. The
Coroner was sent for, but held no in-
quest. No blame is attached to the
railroad company.
The typhoid fever epidemic, which
broke out at Cressona about a month
AGO. has now spread to Schuylkill
Haven and through the Cressons Val
ley. Several cases have been reported
from Branchdale, and fears are enter
tained that the epidemic will sweep
over the county. The disease is con-
stantly spreading. The first victim at
Branchdale was Miss Amy Gotteschal,
aged IS, who died Monday. Two of her
sisters are lying i'll with the disease.
They may not recover.
BENJAMIN Heckert, merchant Of
Sunbury, was swindled Monday by u
man who gave his name as Rowan. He
represented that he had just moved
there and desired to purchase furni-
ture, in payment for which a check of
s41, drawn by a man named Shatta, was
rendered. MIR. Heckert cashed the
check, giving the man several dollars
in change. Afterward several checks
reached one of the banks in the city,
ostensibly signed by Mr.. Heckert, who
Immediately pronounced them forger-
les. Nothing has since been heard of
the swindler.
Rattlesnakes ahd copperheads are
more numerous around Reading and
It's vicinity this year than ever before.
Within week two people have been
killed by the venemous reptiles, and
two others were bitten, but are likely
to recover. Frank Leddy, of Port Gin.
ton, and Edgar Smith, of Yeagerstown,
both died. The former was bitten by
copperhead and the latter by rattler.
There have been 10 large copperheads,
which are poisonous as rattlesnaks,
killed in the valley during the past
week.
John Kossock, a Hungarian living
at Sugar Notch, Luzerne county, COM
mitted suicide Sunday by hanging
himself at his boarding house. He was
married and had large family in the
old country and inability to make
money enough to bring them here was
the cause of his act.
Adjutant General Greenland stated
that the troops will remain at Home
stead for some time yet, as the trouble
has not yet subsided, and that the ex-
pense to the State will be something

Schenberger & Company, of Pitts

The Tide of Immigration Shows a Big In
crease.
The Treasury Department returns
for the last month show no abatement
in the torrent of immigration. The
arrivals of July were 1876 against 49,
O9l last year. For the seven months
ending July 81, the arrivals were 4O3,-
l47 against 371, 1893 for the same period
of last year.
The composition of this immense
river of humanity pouring into this
country from Europe deserves study.
Il used to be that Ireland was the
chief source, but for the period stated
it furnished only 3s,045 immigrants,
while there were 46,340 from Italy and
SO, ,792 from Austria Hungary. The i'm
migration from Northern Europe is OF
people who are of race stocks cognate
with our own; such is not the case with
the population of Southern Europe.
Grouping the immigration on this basis
of direction, the figures are as follows;
Northern Europe, 209,39i; Southern
Europe, l93,753. Northern Europe is
swelled by including in it all the Ger
man immigration, which amounted to
80 s26. In the Southern Europe classi-
f,cation is included Poland-22, 1893, and
Russia, A, ,46S.
Existing laws screen to some extent
this immigration, SO as to exclude pau
pers and criminals. Our naturali@a-
ton laws are, however, so lax that
aliens may be admitted to citizenship
and take part in administering the
Government before they can use the
language in which its Constitution and
laws are written.
