WHAT WE KNOW.

That winter is rapidly approaching.
That the first snow has arrived.
That there are some mud holes on
the streets.
That we missed spicy, newsy, little
Lot in last week s issue of the Herald.
That in some places broken rock is
many inches thick on the street rail
way
That the fear of the tariff manage
ment by TIE Democratic party will be
the beginning of wisdom to some in
days to come.
That the Herald is advancing in pat
ronage, full of news and choice. read
ing matter, and should be in every
household, and if by chance its CORE
spondents could improve its condition
they should surely do it.
Mr. S. L. Dodd, the representative
of Tuscarora Lodge, l. o. of o. F., to
the Grand Lodge which convened at
Wheeling recently, has returned with
considerable honors conferred upon him
having been elected by a flattering
majority to the Office of Grandchildren.
This is the first step on the winding
path to the office of Grand Master.
We hope he may be successful to the
end, as he is one who will greatly as
sist in making Odd Fellowship pro-
gressive in its character. Its member
ship in West Virginia numbers 1865
and is far in the lead in number of
any other secret organization in the
State.
Sometime in the future l will be
prepared to give statement of the
amount of money paid out for reliefin
the State during the past year.
We regret to note the long and con-
tinued illness of Mr.. Charles Brookey.
For four months past he has been un
able to do any labor it is hoped, how
ever, that he will soon be able to take
his old position at the throttle of the
locomotive.
We agree exactly with one of Old
Erin's sons. When he said, there is
nothing like good health particularly
when you are sick.
A very interesting revival has start

Tuesday night the Democratic Dele
gates in the Third Assembly District
will meet in the hall of the Tumllty AS
ISOLATION on Monmouth street. and will
renominate by reclamation Michael
Hennessey for Freebooter. Mr..
Hennessey has been a member
of the Board of Freeholders several
years and his record there and as Chair
man of some Of the most important COM
mittees has been an enviable one. He is
at present Chairman of the Asylum Com
mittee and since he has filed that posi-
ton the asylum has been put into a bet
ter condition than it eve was before. He
has built an extension to 1t aud caused to
be made many improvements which a.
greatly added to the comfort of the IN
fortunate inmates of the institution.
The probabilities are that Freebooter
Hennessey will have but little difficulty
in being reelected. The Republicans in
the district are searching almost vainly
for the candidate, and every pressure
possible is being brought to bear on AS
semblyman Holmes to induce him to be a
candidate. So far Mr.. Holmes has stead
lastly refused to allow his name to be
used. and it is doubtful IL he will accept
n nomination.

A PunctiIious Judge FINDS Eaut0 With
His Pronunciation.
Judge Blodget tells of an occasion when
he was down at Springfield that Abra-
ham Lincoln appeared before the Supreme
Court in a case in which the spoint of is
sue was a certain lien upon a piece OF
property. Mr.. Lincoln's client owned
the property. The presiding Judge was
noted as being somewhat pedontic. In
the course of Mr.. Lincoln's remarks he
had occasion to speak Of the Iiep referred
to, and iovariabiy pronounced It 'leen,"
long and fiat. as the word Is used In COM
mon conversation This vislbly affected
the Judge.

moDstrated.
"Very WELL" said the future President
Of the United States, hardly needing the
interruption. Pretty soon Uncle Abe"
warmed up TO the ~exigencies of his case,
and. forgetting all about the Judge's ad.
monitton, came out with another ~'laen,"
as close to the vernacuIar as ever.
"Li-en," Mr.. Lincoln" the Court
again took occasion to observe.
"As you please" was Lincoln's some
what nettled rejoinder.
mot as l please" came from the bench.
'.That is the pronunciation favored by
Webster end Worcester. 1t so obtains as
Westminster Hall, and also at our own
Supreme Court at Washington"
During this exordium on the amenities
of legal pronunciation Lincoln had re-
covered his proverbial good humor, aud,
as a twinkle appeared In his eye, he bowed
TO the Court n remarked:-"Certainlv

say that If my client had known there

'Since my recovery, over which L
feel so1 rejoiced, I have had oppor-
tunities to see much of the effects OF
this wonderful Safe Cure, in many OF
my friends and acquaintance. L
know there are many women who do
not realize their danger ven at all
conditions of life. The yonng woman
is In peril even when on, the threshold
of womanhood. The wife has legion
of dangers threatening to overcome
her at any time. The mother is~beset
by peril, as a horde of troubles con
sequent upon maternity continually
menace her. When, after passing
through all these dangers. a woman
arrives at time when change .of
life occurs, she is again beset
by ~theseverest of all trials,
and, indeed, through all her
life a woman needs a friend upon
which she can lean, on which she can
depend. / believe that friend, the best
friend known to woman, is Warmers
Safe Cure. I know little concerning
it except what it has done for me and
what I have seen it has done for
others, but I do know that it
saved my life, that it has made me
happy, and that wherever it has been
used l have seen the same grand, BEN
eficiai results.
II make the above statement frank
1y and freely, and from desire that
others may be benefited as I have
been. If suffering, and the danger
which surrounds every woman's life
can be avoided, or even softened, the
happiness of life can be increased and
the world made vastly better"
