Ever Inward. Ever Onward.

In fifteen short months DR.. E. Grewer,
the Philadelphia specialist, has taken a
deeper hold on the confidence of the people
of Scranton than any physician at present
in the city. The reason for this is not
hard to seek. The Doctor is all that he
claims to be, and couples with his remark
able medical and surgical attainments all
the energy and push of the successful
business man. The results of this are seen
in his large and handsome new offices in
the old Postoflice building, corner Penn
avenue and Spruce street, where between
office, reception rooms, laboratory, etc,
he occupies tioorage amounting to over
LOCO square feet.
The appointments in the new establish
ment are complete in every detail, and
will fully meet the requirements of prac-
tice which had far outgrown the limited
space in the old Offices. ~

mated George NJ. Watson. In placing
Mr.. Watson's name before the conven-
ton he said, in substance: "As none
but lawyer can fill the office of dis.
trict attorney and as one who is not

this templn Of Justice. While
he had no affluenee, influence or power
he had ambition and having been en-
eouraged to follow the legal profession
he took it up, passed an honorable ex-

appropriate and eloquent speech. He
laid stress upon the zeal with which
Mr. Colborn had served the Republican
party, how he had devoted his time and
talents to the cause OF Republicanism
and the justice OF rewarding this de-
votion. In concluding MIR. Thomas
said: IF the mantle Of Jack Colborn's
