The township of Burlington is about TO
make legal demand upon the city of
Burlington for share of the Stacy fund,
which was left to the town of Burlington
long before the Revolutionary War, for
the education of youth. The fund con-
ssts of revenue from Matinnacunk Island,
which was left to the city in trust for that
purpose. The township claims that at
the time the Stacy bequest was made the
city was not incorporated, and that the
township and city comprised the town
of Burlington" which is alleged to be the
phraseology of the will. On these grounds
the township will make the appeal, but
the claim will be a difficult one to estab-
lish, because the records directly apper-
tanning to the matter have worn away
with age or been mislaid.

peafness CANNOT be- Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rambling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by cstarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

The usual time for the forest fires to

it was finally saved Mr.. Patterson's house

The Mount Lebanon Shakers recently
performed great deed of charity, al
though it was not designed as a charity,
being nothing more nor less than an ad-
vertising scheme. 1t however resulted In
great good just the same. They gave away
1000 bottles of their Digestive Cordial to
those suffering from stomach derange-
ments.
1t was so effective in curing those who
used the remedy that they we're loud in
their praises of it and in consequence a
large demand for the Cordial was at once
created.
The druggists of this town have little
books that tell all about it. Digestive
Cordial creates an appetite, aids digestion
and brings about rapid increase in flesh
a1d strength.
