Mrs. Samuel Stamm, of Loganton, Pa, bore
her thrty-four years of suffering with courage
and fOrtitude. Her trouble was rheumatism
in the knee. In consequence her limb had be-
come so stiff that she could hardly walk. Mr.
Stamm is well-to-do merchant, and had spar
ed no pains or expense to relieve her, but with
little success, until one night when it grew Sc
painful that she could hardly endure it, he
persuaded her to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
The effect was magical. The first application
relieved the pain, and its continued use has re-
moved all stiffness and given her the free use
of her limb once more. If you have friends
who are troubled with rheumatism insist on
their giving this remedy trial. You can do
them no greater favor, il is sure to give
prompt relief, and if they are n little patient it
will effect a cure. For sale at 25 and 80 cents

MCCANN.-In loving remembrance Of oul
dear uncle, Rev. WILLIAM f. MCCANN who
died six years ago, March %, 1891.
Loved in life, in death remembered"
He was firm i'll his faith,
He was true to his God,
When life's cares were heavy,
He kissd the stern rod.
He lived for the right
And Stunned evil ways,
And gave to his Master
The best of his days.
He was true in the work
OF his Master and Lord,
His good deeds were many,
He now reaps his reward.
He never turned deaf ear
To the cry of distress;
The dear Lord WAS with him
To comfort and bless.
His friends they were many,
His enemies few;
In all of his dealings
He had heaven in view.
He had many dear ties
To bind him to life,
Seven dear children
And a dear loving wife.
The warfare is ended,
His spirit has iled,
The form of our loved one
Now sleeps with the dead.
He has passed through the valley
And shadow of death,
And we know that his spirit
Is forever ut rest.
By his neice,

out OF prison on that day, Moore has lived
the life of a convict for fifteen years, and his
conduct has been so exemplary that an effort
is now being made to have him pardoned, in
order to save his citizenship before his term
expires. Governor Lowndes advertised the
fact that he would take up the case for final
decision on Wednesday, and invited ali

to be enemies, but still continued to work on
the vessel. Shortly before Christmas, 1882, the
vessel left Havre de Grace with cargo for
Baltimore, and while in the bay the men start
ed to quarrel, and nearly came to blows. On
December rs, while the vessel was lying al
Canton Hollow, Captain Smith, SO Moore said
recently, came aboard the vessel, very mucl
under the influence OF liquor. Moore asked
him If he would have some supper, and
Smith replied that he would not eat until h,
