Discovering That She Had Made . Missaks,
 She Apologi.ed.
 In front of Trinity church a stylishly dressed young woman stepped from the sidewalk directly in front of a team of heavy horses attached to a we'll loaded truck. She was endeavoring to catch the eye of cable car gripman and did not see the rapidly moving truck bearing down upon her. Passersby expected to zee her ground to earth, but one of two fashionably appearing young fellows with slightly dudish proolivities rushed to the curb, and lifting the woman by the arms quickly swung her around and landed her out of danger on the side walk.
 She, all unconscious of her dangerous predicament, turned on the young man sharply with an indignant How dare you, sirl' and looked as if she were contemplating an assault on him with her parasol.
 The young fellow looked surprised, and then, taking of his hat, bowed and, with an Excuse me, madam" passed on with his friend.
 She turned toward the street again and for the first time observed the truck, which now stood in her path The driver of this calmly remarkedi ''That dude saved your life, lady. Why don't you scratch his eyes outf"
 The woman, for the first time realiz- ing her narrow escape, hurried after the rapidly disappearing youths. who had nearly reached Rector street by that time Touching her resouer's arm, she quickly apologized for her rudeness and thanked him for his timely act.
 Don't mention it, please. The pleas ure is entirely mine. assure you" was the response. Two hats were doffed, and the blushing woman was left on the sidewalk with humiliating sense of her previous rudeness.
 ''Beastly queer things these girls are. Harvey, " said one to the other as they disappeared in the arcade leading to the L. statinn--New York Advertiser.
 Mir J. A. Scriven, a prominent msnu- fscturer of IS East 18th St, New York city, purchased bottle of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy from druggist H. H. Lane, Peekskill, N Y.

A FEW months ago all the
Republican papers were cry
ing: "Revise the Tariff !" and
''Wait until Congress meets !;
we'll show you how to make a
tariff OF enough revenue to
support the Government. !"
And all the while column edi-
torials kept appearing telling
just how the wonderfully wise
Republicans would fix up the
schedules and bring back
prosperity to a furnishing peo-
pie. Well. we've waited !:
and we've seen prosperity
come Immediately and i'm
pressively. We haven't had
to wait for Republican sche-
dule or a Republican policy
The new tariff and Democrat
tic rule have so revived the in
dustries OF the country that
the Republicans have lest all
their thunder. They've had
to change their tune. The cry
has now become: "Mend it
or end it And in time this
will give way to an awful ST
lence on the part of the advo-
Gates OF McKinleyism The
people will then take a hand,
and set to mending and end
ing some OF the wild vagaries
OF the Republican spell-bind-

We commenced selling furni-
ture long while after we were
fairly launched in selling other
goods-early in 1885 to be
exact. We gathered what
seemed a comprehensive stock
and priced it fairly. 1t was the
best of the several sorts on the
market. But buyers had come
to look to Wanamaker's for
letter esr,Jkfna Of goods. Usual
furniture ss'onldn'f 40, though
fairly priced. Had to start all
over again. Then we got right
furniture, and we haven't had
any other kind since. Made
for endurance; made not to
warp, twist, come apart or fall
down; made artistically.
1t was something new under
the sun.
People liked it, and gave us
a bigger furniture trade than
any other merchant ever
dreamed Of Makers liked the
change-they always like bet
terment when somebody else
is brave enough to stand the
risk.
Then came the August Fur
niture Sales-the dull month of
the year utilized to distribute
vast quantities OF goods. We
could afford to do the store
keeping cheaply, for it was
business and kept the wheels
turning. Everyone concerned
could shade prices to make an
all-the-year-'rou briskness.
Each year finds greater
preparations in readiness for
the constantly increasing de-
mands; finds every price adj
vantage turned your way.

A FEW weeks ago a promi-
nent Republican came into our
office with copy of the Phil
adelphia Press containing an
article about the desertion
from the Prohibition party and
his going over to the Republi-
cans of one Charles w. Sell
ner, of Ohio, and requested
us to publish it. The article
was headed ..Prohibition a
failure,'' and as the MEssEN-
GER could see no objection to
the article we published it.
1t appears that the Philadel-
phia Press has somewhat stir
red up the Prohibitionists by
the article in question and to
counteract the influence of it.
they have secured statements
from leading men OF the Ohio
Prohibition party to the effect
that Selner is an ex-convict
and totally unreliable. 1t APP
pears from the interviews Civ
en- that Selner declared HIM
self a Prohibitionist several
years ago Since which time
he has been convicted OF forg-
cry and served a term in the
penetcntiary at Columbus,
Ohio. Through the efforts of
the Prohibition attorney bis
sentence was committed
some, and in the first cam
paign after he was released
from jail he was given appoint
ments to speak for the Prohi-
bition party of Ohio, and was
employed in similar work in
succeeding campaigns. These
facts are conclusive evidence
that the Prohibition party Of
Ohio is rot a model of perfec-
ton. That it accepted a corrupt
man to champion its cause is
admitted by the mans accUS-
ers, and it makes them appear
rather small potatoes to endea.
vor to advertise the fact from
one end of the earth to the
other that the poor devil was
an ex-convict. They should
have gone to him like Chris
tians and admonished him.
Christ does not teach us TO act
as this mans accusers have
acted. He may have been
guilty of all they claim. we
have no doubt of it, but when
they say they do not 6ciicge
he voted with them, they have
evidently strained the truth
till il snapped into ialsehood.
II that was their belief they
encouraged a hypocrite when
they allowed that man to advo-
cate their principles on the
stump. The MESSENGERS could
90 on further in this matter,
but it has no interest in it ex-
cept to give the truth, and
this in compliance with the in
vitation Of its esteemed con-
temporary to print the truth.

most popular business men in

been a democrat, acting for
the best interests OF his party.
He is an admirer OF President
Cleveland and would have
stood upon no other platform
than that which was presented
TO the convention and unani-
mously adopted by it. He is
known in every city, town and
hamlet Of the State through his
years of business relations with

OF them will bear witness to
his qualifications for the office
