Nine COmDrehensiy Rules.

Seldom has there been better advice
for the conduct of the human family
than is boiled down in nine compre-
hensive antitheses: Drink less, breathe
more; eat less, chew more; ride less,
walk more; clothe less, battle more;
worry less, work more; waste less, give
more; write less, read more; talk less,
think more; preach less, practice
more. To follow these is to strike for
better health, further popularity and
greater success.

means an easy task for the architect
to take advantage of the small space
at his disposal, and yet design build

beauty, and at the same time not bring
out too forcibly the sharp angle Of the

Letter to w. III. CTamer.
Emporium, Pa.

Dear Sir: tits your business to know
what materials to put into house as
well as to plan it. Ofcourse, you know
the effect of zinc on lead in paint
toughens it. Do you also know the
greater effect of zinc ground in?
For a painter can't grind; he can
only mix. Devoe lead and zinc is
thoroughly ground in oil. The result
is an intimate mixture.
Your painter can only mix; he can't
grind; there's no need of grinding by
hand. He should buy lead and zinc
ground together in oil.
Devoe lead and zinc is that; the pro-
portions are right besides. 1t outlasts
lead and oil two to one, and costs no
more-even less; for hand-work can't
compete with machine work.
Yours truly,
16 +. w. DEvoE & Co.

many come from Batavia, Samarang and

They are all so dark as to be taken for
negroes, but their features are Caucasian
and their hair is straight, stiff and wiry.
They are peaceable and orderly up to a

control and generally resort to the knife
The number varies from fifty to four and
five hundred. They are inveterate smok-

Editor Press
The Buffalo & Susquehanna railroad is
now connected with the p. & f., at this
place, and after some ballasting and lining
up is done, will be ready for business. I
have been reliably informed that the first
regular train, mixed one, will be placed
in service about Jan. 1st. This road will
be of more benefit and Importance to this
place than may at first appear. Not only
will it open up more convenient avenue
of trade and communication between
Cameron and Potter counties but will also
be OF much importance from commercial
standpoint. Our mills will no longer be
compelled to depend on rain and snow for
supply of logs, but they can be brought
here by rail-a convenience to the parties
interested. Besides this the lumber
market of western New York will be
more accessible to the Sinnamahoning
valley, the benefits of which is at present
somewhat speculative and must be solved
by future developments, but in all events
our people have just cause for being elated
over the adveut of this new railroad.
Barclay Bros. new bridge, crossing the
First Fork, which was partly built and
damaged by the recent food is being rap
