taking fright at some object on the

While the binder in common use
on brides prevents the horse from
seeing objects on either side, there
is nothing to shut out the view of any
thing approaching which might tend
to brighten the animal, and it can also
turn it's head if it hears a noise: but
with this new device the driver or
rider has only to pull cord lying
parallel to the reins and a bellows
like curtain is drawn over both eyes
to shut out the sight completely. In
this condition the animal can only

The Law of Gravitation.

Newton's law of universal gravita-
ton announces that two bodies attract
each other with force inversely
proportional to the square of their
distance (their masses being equaD.
Half the distance-the force is in.
creased four times; increase it ten
fold-the force is diminished 100
times. AS the positions of heavenly
bodies become known with greater &C.
curacy the test that can be put upon
this law becomes more severe. Prof.
E. W. Brown of Haverford college, an
authority on the theory Ct the moons
motion, announces that his calcula.
tons show that Newton's law repre-.
sents the motion of our satellite to
within one ohe-millionth of one per
cent. and that no other physical law
has been expressed with anything like
the precision of it's simple statement.

TO WHICH CLASS?

The Democrat collector is making calls on subscribers this week, and 1t is hoped that readers of the paper will be ready for him, and thus save him the trouble of making a second or third
 call. Collecting subscriptions is the most difficult part of the whole news
 paper business. Subscribers are di- vided into several classes. The kind that every paper likes best are those that pay in advance. By so doing they get a ten per cent discount at the Democrat office. A number of this kind call monthly, quarterly or yearly, just as regular as the day comes round and pay up. Another class pay when called upon, but rarely ever come to the office. If they would only get into the way of calling in they too could save the price of q cigar or a box of candy for the children. Another kind, and they are the ones that give the most trouble, must be called on from one to ten times before they make the col lector happy. We have sstill another Kind, although we are happy to say they are scarce, and that is the kind that never pay. Our advice to all is to join the ranks of those who pay in advance. It saves you money. It saves us time, labor and money and enables us to devote more time to giv- Ing you better paper. Have your back subscription ready when the col- lector calls this week.

IS a drink which Is used all over this wide world; its effect on our system Is far more beneficial than all the medicine you could buy in a drug store. There are hundreds of thou sands of eminent physicians who claim that tea, yes, and coffee, is one of the very best tonics and stimulants which you can use, provided you get the good quality and have it brewed properly. Of course the trash which you are liable to get at some stores is enough to set your mind against ever drinking another cup or tea or coffee. But you must remem- Der the quality we sell is the nice tasting and health-braoing kind; it will not only taste good, but its after effect will bring happiness which will stay with you as long as you continue using the quality we sell. You may say, how in the Dickens is it that the kind we sell Is better than what the other fellows sell? Well, that's an easy question. We know the differ ence in teas and coffees when we are buying and we will not buy the cheap stuff at any price; that's good common sense, isn't 1t? You may also say, how Is 1t we've been selling the best butter in the city for 2Sc per pound all winter? Why, it's because we know our business and the reason our 3Sc coffee is the best in the city is because we're bound to have it so at

Painters Say the JOurnymen can
Remain on Strike as Long as
They Choose.
MATTER is DISCUSSED.
Meeting of the Bosses was Held Recently
and all Agreed to Stand as Long as the
IOurneymen hold out = One Of the
Bosses Talks on the SubIect-Are now
at Work.

At the last regular meeting OF the
boss painters, held in their rooms on
Smith street, the trouble with the
journeyfnen painters came up and the
question as to whether to agree to the
mems demands or not was discussed.
After lengthy discourse the bosses
decided that they would ignore the
strike entirely. If the painters de-
cided that they want to stay for a
year they can do so as far as the boss
es are concerned. When boss paint
er was seen by News reporter this
morning he said:
"Do think that the trouble with
the painters will soon be settled? No,
I do not, for as far as the bosses are
concerned they will never ask for a
meeting with the painters, and 1t is
up to the painters to come to us and
ask for work which, at the present
time, they DON'T seem inclined to do.
They don't feel the trouble now, but
every boss in town is accepting as
much work as he himself can do with
in three months, and we are only
taking this on condition that the
people wait patiently until we finish
one job, before we take the next.
When the cold weather sets in and Q
price of FOOD and clothing is high then
the painters will find out how foolish
they have been. +"
The painters seem not to be worry
ing much about the strike. They
claim that they have plenty of work,
and that most of them have been work
ing SO hard of late that they are now
enjoying a few days vacation to rest.

TO REGISTER
ALL THE DOGS.
Mayor Seaman has Issued Pro-
CIamatiOn Concerning Can
ines Must Obey the Law.
POLICE WILL SHOOT.

There is prospects of a general
slaughter of dogs in Perth Amboy.
Mayor Seaman recently issued a pro-
cIamation concerning the animals and
these were distributed by City Clerk
Rielley yesterday. The proclamation
warns all dog owners that unless their
CANNES are registered according to
law they are liable to be shot on sight
by the policemen.
The Board of Aldermen recently
took action in this matter and were
unanimous in abating the dog nuis-
ance in this city. There is a law
compelling all dogs to be registered
and this can be done at the city clerk s
office. Hundreds of CANNES now
prowl about the streets getting into
everyone's way and are a nuisance
generally. The police will be in
struoted to shoot these animals. 1t is
easy to distinguish the registered dogs,
for the law requires that they wear a
collar bearing the dogs name, the
owners name, and. the number of
their register.
Many of the dogs running about the
city belong to no one and are simply
tramps. There will be general re-
ioicing if the mayors proclamation is
strictly carried out.
