Most persons will agree with our
esteemed evening neighbor, the Truth,
when, in speaking of the Sunday clos
ing movement, it says: In this as In
all things else reason must rule. The
drug stores, for instance, are n neces-
aity in every large. city. Indeed we
Dhould consider it q crime against the
community TO compel them to be closed
any day in the week, since the saving
of human life frequently depends on
The promptness with which medicine
may be obtained" We concur with the
same excellent journal in its belief thar
y certain amount OF Sunday travel is
necessary under modern conditions.
The safe way to get at the regulation
Of these things is to separate such labor

The majority Of sensible men. from that
which is wanton and supeitluous; per-
nit the free performances Of one class
and rigidly suppress the other. This
should be done, not in order to compel

sense so claims. 1t should be done rs a

ality.
The Truth regards the sale Of soda
water on Sunday as n work Of necessity
or mercy. Certain other persons do
not. Let us submit the question to the
courts. II they decide hat such a sale
is hostile to the intent Of the present
,aw, it will become the duty of good
citizens to obey the courts. They may
still advocate the laws amendment or
repeal, in orderly manner, through
legislative enactment. But no good
citizen will individually anticipate
what he hopes will be the action of the
legislature by defying tue law ~ it
now stands. That would, as Mr.. Dick
son has ably pointed out, he equivalent
in effect to an attempted notification
Of law, to which the Truth would be
among the frat to enter objection.
We fear lest our evening neighbor
5hould underestimate the intention
which is behind this present move
ment because Of certain minor details
in which there is room for an honest
difference Of opinion, That intention,
as we believe, is not narrow nor perse-
cutive in any sense. 1t does not wish

ions. 1t simply holds that law, in it's
plain and vital behests, should and
shall be obeyed. The moral suasion
comes first; but il it disclo3oa the ex-
lstencs of a rebellious spirit, there will
be abundant reserve strength TO meet
all such emergencies.

The QUESTION Of law observance is
rot a question of intolerance 1t is q
question Of civic loyalty. Law is not
made to govern mems opinions. 1t is
made to impose necessary restraints
upon their actions. The employer who

law and will get little sympathy in his

THE

The prevalence Of colds at the season
Of the year when sneezing and cough
ing should be almost unknown has
aroused much speculation as to the
causes of these disagreeable epidemics
which make existence miserable during
their periodical v~isitatious. The aver
age sufferer philosophically terms the
summer cold an epidemic that's going
the rounds. and doses regularly with
compounds Of cure without giving a
thought as to what might constitute
the ounce OF prevention. A lumber
mar of this city who in years past has
spent many winters in the logging
CAMPS gives his opinion that colds are
brought on by lack of fresh air, eXer-
else and sleep. The lum6erman states
that in the logging season he has ex-
listed for many II day on salt pork and
slept sweetly on hemlock boughs when
tho thermometer ranged about zero
and the tempest howled about his
cabin door. During the Tina any
thing of the nature of a cold was I'M
known.

Cold water enthusiasts advocate fire.
quent bathing as a preventive for
colds. The cold water sponge bath
upon rising certainly is an aid toward
good health, but unless followed by
exercise and fresh air Is not the cure
all for disease. In fact too much
water has in some instances caused the
death of the bather. Professional vo
cRlists are usually the most fortunate
people in the world in the matter OF
colds and throat trouble. Their good
health is undoubtedly produced by
diet and breathing exercises nece' sary
in training the voice aud expanding
the chest. There are hundreds of
people about rs who problbly do
not fill their lungs with mir
twelve times q year on an average;
aud yet they are at a loss TO know why
their organs are 80 susceptible to every
epidemic. A sarcastic writer once TO
marked tina: many people died annually
because they were too lazy TO breathe.
This statement ia undoubtedly true.
But many readers will probably still
prefer to take medicine for the evils
that might DO banished by main
strength. Although the afflicted m "
never be converted, still the weight o.
opinion based upon ex perience, observ-
alton and common sense seems to b.
unanimous that good health can best
be promoted by plenty of out door ex
%ercise; regular hours of sleep and the
absence OF rich ~puddings, pie and cake
from the daily bill Of fare.

From the exchange list it is observed
that people throughout the country are
enjoying Jason Of summer opera OF
popular prices, and 1T is evident that
this style Of summer amusement il
gaining ground each year. The exper
iment of producing operas during tho
heated months at popular prices was
first tried in western cities where the
scheme met with favor at once aud the
pioneers rsaped large profits from the
venture. During the last two
or three years many managers
have been successfully engaged in
summer opera ventur, s. AT the close
Of the regular amusement season some
of the very best talent can be procured
at reduced sslarisS, as nearly all are
willing to pass the greater part of the
heated term at work ever at n low rate
of compensation, rather than depend
upon their winters earnings to pay
expenses Of the entire year. On this
account managers are enabled to select
the best soloists and chorus singers
from the army Of the unemployed and
the entertainments given by these COM
panies at popular prices are often su-
perior to those presented by high priced
combinations during the regular dram
attic season.
Scranton has not been bshind other
cities this year in the matter Of sum-
mer opera. The excellent company
that has been secured for 4 season Of
several weeks at the Frothingham, will
give all an opportunity to enjoy rem
ditions Of the favorite operas at prices
much below those OF the winter enter
tainments. From the enthusiastic
manner in which the troupe has been
received in this city, and the liberal
