Years written by the greatest physicians Of
europe. as well as America, whicn gives
nun opportunities to see what the greatest
doctors Of the world use for different trou-
Dies. With this knowledge Mr.. Haag has
combined a mixture of the best known med
icines TO be used for the grip. II is a COM

which he has been selling the past four years,
and mat usually cures the grip in a day.
This medicine is put up in capsule form and

Haag is the druggist who has created such
a sensation by the new liver pill that he
originally made for his mother. who had
been troubled with chronic Indigestion ard
constipation, and was completely cured by
the use of this pill. Mr.. Haag and his clerks
were all very busy with the sale OF his now
famous liver pill, Anti-Grip Capsule and fill
ing prescriptions. One man is kept busy fill
ing orders from a distance. He remarked
that many druggists are now Offering to
the public cheap limitations Of his prepara-
TORS, but this did not interfere with the
sale Of his medicines, as the public was
quite familiar with the high grade Of all
his DreDa ra tiOuS.

Let IT be said of the medical profession
that it has kept step with the progressive

important discoveries for the betterment of
the human race have been made in any
department OF knowledge than have been
made BY our physicians. The sanitary leg

largely the work OF this intelligent profess

a few drugs were all the remedies the doc

Then there were no legal barriers in the
way TO prevent the merest quack and pre-
tender from the practice OF medicine. Any
body could move to n new and strange
place and put out his single as a doctor
without any previous training or learning.

NO PAY FOR OONsTABLEs.

On Monday, Judge Ikeler made an
order directing the County Commiss-
toner's to allow no pay for the day to
constables making their returns to
court, but to allow them ten cents
mileage. Heretofore they have drawn
$3.50 and mileage.
This order is in conformity with the
fee bill of 1898, in which no provision
is made for the pay of constables. 1t
is no doubt a hardship to compel con-
stables to attend court and bear their
own expenses, but it is the fault of the
law, and not of the court. The con-
stables are indignant, and many of
them threaten to resign. We would
advise them not to be hasty in the
matter, as the legislature will convene
next January; and then no doubt this
defect in the law will be remedied.

A FATAL RAILROAD WRECK.
The Engineer Dsobeyed Orders and, With
His Fireman, Lost His Life.

A freight wreck occurred between
Mooresburg and Mausdale, on the
Catawissa branch of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad, early Sunday
morning, in which two men lost their
lives, another had leg broken and
three young men of Milton, who were

far as Danville, but Engineer Mitchell
ran ahead, hoping to reach the siding
at Mooresburg and there rest until
train "a had passed.
Engineer Mitchell and Fireman
Kelly, Of the pusher, were both killed.
Mitchell was buried beneath the
wreck and his body was recovered

DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
Band Parade and Address at Evans Hall.

The Democrats of Bloomsbury,
held an enthusiastic meeting in the
interest of Bryan and Sewell and
silver at Evans Hall on Friday night
last.
Previous to the meeting the Band
paraded the streets and when they
marched up to the Club room large
crowd had already gathered. Just
before the meeting was called to
order the alarm of fire was given and
this made the meeting somewhat late.
At $500 the meeting was called to
order by T. c. Harter, President of
the club who spoke few words to
the club. County Chairman Chrisman
then took the floor. He bid every
body welcome to the hall and asked
all the democrats to stand by their
colors at the approaching election.
He told of the many republicans, who
are daily deserting their party and
coming over to the peoples party for
Bryan and Sewell and Silver.
Mr.. Harter then introduced the
speaker of the evening, Mr.. w. c.
Lawrence, of Luzerne County. He
talked very torcibly for some time and
used arguments and figures which
were convincing. He is an orator of
commanding presence, and his many
telling comparisons of the ruinous
effects of the gold standard were
received with great applause. The
meeting closed with three rousing
cheers for Bryan and Sewell and free
silver.

scenery that has done duty for twenty
years, with an entire new lot,
