There is no doubt that man is a fine
mechanism, but like every other machine
he wears out by friction. 1t is said that he
is born again every two or three years.
His body is virtually re-made from food.
To retsrd this making over is radically
wrong, as a man loses so much vitality in
the delayed process that it takes a long
time to recuperate. The process of making
anew is so accelerated by purging with
Brandreth's Pills that a new man, as it
were, may be made in two or three months,
and the change in the mechanism is such
that the worn out part is replaced by the
new without the usual running down of
the entire machine. You don't have to
stop for repairs. Purge away with Bran
dreth's Pills, the old, diseased and worn
out body. They are purely vegetable,
absolutely harmless, and safe to take at
any time.

proposed new building. After considerable
discussion a majority of the board decided
that the plans we're not suitable and the
architect will be requested to prepare other
plans.
The board proposes replacing the present
structure with a two story frame building,
which will be IA feet running north and
south, and Y feet east and west. There
will be a wide hallway running east and
west and a tower in the front of the build
ing will be made suitable for a town clock.
Some members of the board are very
much displessed over the delay in the work.
They say the Democratic members are only
quibbling with a view to putting off the
work until after the board ~reorgsnizes in
June, when the majority power now held
by the Republicans will be turned over tt
the Democratic eide.
However this may be, the people are be.
coming impatient and many fear that
unless the board is more energetic in the
future the opening of the new building will
not take place at the beginning of the next
school term.

Schoppe Orchestra.

Last week the Schoppe Bros orchestra,
of town, furnished the music for the Sum.
NIT Hill Arbutus Club, at their annual hop,
and this is what the Hazleton Plain Speaker
says of their playing; Each selection
was generously spplauded by the Assem-.
blage. Their qusdrille music is simply
inspiring; but when they play a waltz a
sensation of delicious intoxication takes
possession of everybody, pervades every
thing envelops the world. To hear them
play a waltz is to waltz, whether you will
or not-whether your feet is still or stirring
the swing is irresistible, and you are
seized and whirled away in spite of fatigue
or remonstrance.
