THE PASSAIC AS AN OPEN
SEWER.

From the Newark Evening News
s.As an engineer said Rudolph Herring,
at the meeting of the Board of street
and Water Commissioners. last night, 1T
is my duty to recommend to any city
that it would not be advisable to di-
rect sewage to tidal stream that runs
along such city. 1t is bad principle and
you will regret it, perhaps not at once,
but fifty years from now. We can DO
things right now and it is to your credit
to handle the sewage question properly
and get credit in the future"
This is a statement Of a well demon-
strated fact to wn1Gn lad tne attention rhe @

We are not prepared to believe the pub
lished story that Vice Chancellor Pitney
elected an unoffending newspaper re-
porter from his court at Newark and
forbid him to print word about the
case Judge Pitney is one of the most
conscientious and industrious jurists on
the bench of the State and we have
reason to know from personal experience
that he holds the newspaper men in
high appreciation and is thoroughly
cognizant of the power and value of the

The Keystone of the Arch

In the ediice of health is vigor, which means not
only muscular energy, but an active discharge
of the various functions of the body, such as
digestion, secretion of the bile the action of the
bowels. the circulation Of the blood. Nothing
more actively and thoroughly contributes to the
united performance of these functions than the
renowned tonic and regulator, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. The result of its use is a
speedy gain In strength, together with the agr rec
able consciousness that the tenure of life Is
being strengthened-tha one is laying up store
of vitality against the unavoidable draughts
which old age makes upon the system. The
terrifying influence of the BitterS constitute 1t
reliable safeguard against malaria, rheumatism
and kidney trouble Appetite and sleep improve
through its use, and it protects the system from
the effects of cold and damp.
