Death OF Samuel Luck.

The Posr regrets to record the
sudden death of Samuel Luck of
Penn Township. Mr.. Luck was
born in Penn Township about fifty
five years ago and belonged to n
large and well known Snyder county
family of eleven children, six boys
and five girls.
His father, Isaac Luck, had at
tanned to the remarkablea age of nine
ty four years when he died in the
spring of lSSS, having enjoyed n
bhssfull married life with his excel.
lent wife for period of over sixty
SIX years. Samuel was the fourth
son OF the family aud Was noted for
his excessive energy, earnest apnli.
cation to work and his quiet unpre.
tentious demeanor. He was n most
skilfull carpenter, a quiet, peaceable
citizen who never had aught to say
against friend or foe. He came
fv0:n . stl,ek notna'fo .hei.. rh,-a;u..i
hardihood and great vigor and they
did great deal to improve the then
uninhabitated wilderness. His sud
den death is serious blow to his
family, and great loss to the com
munity which he served for u quar-.
ter of century in the undertaking
business.

A Novel Idea.
wars.

1t is free, and deeply interests
everybody who has aches or pains,
or who is weak and sickly. Anyone
can learn the surest and quickest
means to get strong and well by ac-
cepting that splendid free offer of
the great specialist in curing ner-
vous and chronic diseases, DR..
Greene, of 35 West l4th ST., New
York City. He has established n
system of letter correspondence
through which nil sick and suffer
ing people can learn exactly what
ails them, and how to get well, with
out expense and without leaving
their homes. All they have to do is
to write to the Doctor, stating each
symptom from which thoy are suf-
fering, and he will answer their let
ter, explaining their case thorough
ly, telling Just what the trouble is
and what to do to be cured. He
gives the greatest care and atten-
ton to every letter, and tells the
cause of each symptom SO plainly
that patients understand instantly
just what ails them. And all this
costs nothing. 1t is splendid op-
portunity for those who cannot af-
ford the time or expense to go to
the city. DIR. Greene makes II
specially of curing patients through
letter correspondence. He is the
most successful specialist in curing
nervous and chronic diseases, and is
the discoverer of that wonderful
medicine, DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy. Those
who write to him get cured.

there is a scarcity of tubing. There

entire output for the season. The
shortage OF tubing will therefore
prevent any cut in the price of
wheels next year.

Death Of Johnnie GraybiIl.

There is rarely so much public
sympathy aroused for the death of
SO young child as that of John
Russell, II son of Clarence and Mag
gle Graybill of Swineford. The
child suffered great deal for more
than month and finally succumbed
last Thursday at noon. All that the
kind and careful attention OF loving
hands could do was of no avail to
spare the young child who died at
the early age of years, 8 months
and 7 days.
The funeral service took place on
Sunday morning at ten o'clock in
the Lutheran church. The sermon
was preached by Rev. ID. Il. McLain,
the family pastor. Appropriate re
marks were made by Rev. Hertz.

Argentina has Ieen making great
strides in the shipment Of live cattle to
Great Britain. In 1891 20 live beeves
were shipped from the South American
republic to England. For the first five
months Of 1896 the number has been
0,795, besides 1874, 5S1 sheep. An aver
age profit per head Of certainly not more
than IS is realized on these animals,
owing to cost Of freight and feed and at
tendance during the long voyage It has
been claimed by Americans that the
South American beef is not fit to eat at
all, but Argentina seems able to dispose
of her cattle in England. The meat is
not nearly so good as that from the
United States. 1t is soft and fabby,
which some butchers believe is owing
to the animals having been fed on al
falfa. But North American beef is fed
on alfalfa toe.

It is rough indeed for Legislators who
have been elected to their places on an
issue Of reform to have a designing mo-
nopoly invade their sacred halls and
under the sacred name Of reform cause
to be railroaded through a law that,
when carefully scanned, gives to the
monopoly greater privileges than it had
under the old regime. The story runs
that even thus the Chicago Gas and
Electric Lighting companies invaded
the Illinois legislature and won for
themselves perpetual monopoly of the
Illuminating business in the city by
the lake.

1S63-'Old Rosy' and his army of the
Cumberland, who had been following
Bragg from Murfreesboro since the
preceding January, were treated to a
surprise on the banks of Chickamauga
Creek. Resecrans knew that his
enemy, who had evacuated Chat
tanooga in haste, was somewhere in
the hilly country to the south, and
planned to fall upon him from several
directions and compel a surrender of
the whole rebel army. What Rose
Grams did not know was that Long
streets corp of veterans from Virginia
were already reinforcing Bragg, and
when he found it out the Union army
was making good time away from a
lost field. Had it not been for Pap
Thomas" and the Fourteen Corps our
boys might not have stopped at Chat
tanooga that night. Many are yet liv-
ing who were among the visiting tour
lists there then, though most of the
leaders have passed away. This
month there will be a great gathering
of ex-soldiers at Chattanooga to assist
in the dedication of monuments on the
Chickamaga battle field. The most
distinguished of the old soldiers on
both sides will be there. A low rate
