The prospect OF relief from drastic cathartics
for persons troubled with constipation is poor
indeed. True they act upon the bowels, but this
they do with violence, and their operation tends
TO weaken the intestines, and is prejudicial to
the stomach Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Is an

BIunIng the Almighty.

In the department of Castaneras In San
Salvador there has been no rain for nearly
year and the people were brought to such
a pass that they were actually dying of
thirst, to say nothing of the total destruc-
ton of all crops and other agricultural In
dustries. El Pueblo Catoico of San Saliva
dor prints a decree promulgated by the al
cade of the principa! town in that depart
ment- 1t Is as follows:
considering that the Supreme Creator
has not behaved well In this province, as in
the whole of last year only one shower of
rain fell; that In this summer, notwithstand-
Ing all the professions, prayers and praises,
1t has not rained at all, and consequently
the crops of Castaneras which depend
the prosperity of the whole department, are
entirely ruined, 1t is decreed:
"Article LII within the period of eight
days of date of this decree rain does not
fall abundantly, no one will go to mass or
say prayers.
Article H.-If the drought continues eight
days more the churches and chapels shall be
burned. and mtssals, rosarfes and other OBJ
jects of devotion will be destroyed.
ARTICLE III.-If finally. In third period
Of eight days. 1t shall not rain, all the
priests, friars, nuns and saints, male and
female, will be beheaded. And, for the
present. permission is given for the commits
sion of all sorts of sin. in order that the
Supreme Creator may understand with
whom he has to deal"
The most remarkable feature of this nf-
fair Is the fact that four days after the de
cree was promulgated the heaviest rainfall
known for years precipitated on the
burning community.

The Clayton Call yesterdao said:-
There seems to have been some trouble
over the elsction OF George W.Andrews. OF
Haines, Pa. as principal Of the public
schools OF Smyrna, and this all was caused
by the queer conduct, so We are.lnformed.
OF the School Commissioners OF New Cas-
tie. MIR. Andrews wGs elected at SIN yrna
on Monday evening of last week; and the
Secretary Of tho Board. Il. nj. Fowler,
wrote Immediately notifying him OF his
election. MIR. Andrews not being at home
did not receive the letter promptly. On
Tuesday evening the School Commission.
ers OF New Castle met knowing that Mr..
Andrews had been elected to Smyrna.
They elected him principal of their
school. and instructed their secretary to
wire him before he could receive tine no.
tice from Smyrna, which he did and re.
ceivsd reply from Mr.. Andrews stating
that he would accept. Tha Smyrna PEG.
pie received q telegram last Saturday
from the gentleman above referred to
stating that he was sorry, but coald not
accept the position here. This certainly
appears to he very strange proceedings
on the part of the New Castle School
Board and puts them In n very bad light
before the people of the State. The
Smyrna School Board will meet 10 few
days. and elect another principal. We
hardly believe there Is another board in
the State that will treat our Commission
ere 30 dlscourteously.
