Publish the Laws.

Representative Reitmeyer. Of Ly.
coming county, has introduced in the
House bill providing for the publ.
cation Of the Acts of Assembly from
session 80 session in q sufficient mum
Der OF newspapers in each county. For
years there has been discussion of the
necessity of such q measure. Every
Two years large number of import
ADt laws are passed and with the ex.
ception OF a comparatively favored
GLASS these acts are unknown to the
people. AS q result there are many
violations of law through ignorance of
these ensctments, especially such acts
rs those regulating the sale of foods,
the hunting of game aud fish. and
similar measuTes
There has been much hardship az a
result Of legislation of this class and
the proposed law is one that will com.
mend itself TO the people of the Com
monw wealth. While ignorance OF the
law Is no excuse under our system of
Jurisprudence the fact that new laws
are unknown TO the people ought to be
a mitigation of the otfeuses frequently
charged against them. About ali that
many persons know of the new Acts Of
Assembly is what they see in a frag-
mentary way from time to time dur
ing the consideration Of the bills by
the Legislature. Mr.. Reitmeyer has
the right idea. As New York has been
publishing the laws of that State in
the newspapers for many years there
ought to be no opposition to the bill.

MINOR MATTERS
On INTEREST

DR. J. J. Kline of Allentown, who
is at present sojourning in Danville
tells a story of his well-knOwn English
Setter, Dave. that will be enjoyed
by all lovers of dogs. When DR., Kline
lived In Danville Dave was the faith
fol watch dog of his stables. He was
a noble animal, kind and companion
able, and yet stern and faithful
guardian of his masters property.
There were few persons who knew the
doctor who didn't know Dave. "
When the veterinarian removed tO
Allentown Dave went along. The
doctor says the dog is getting on III
years and he prooured a younger dog,
90 that while Dave still had welcome
home. he WAS no longer an indispens-
able commodity.
Some time ago Dave formed AL at.
tachment for a lady friend OF the fam
lily, who lives in Trenton. n J.. one
hundred miles from Allentown. She
expressed wish 10 own the dog,
which was granted. Dave very willing
ly accompanied the lady 10 her distant
home ani news came back that he was
doing we'll.
Another letter followed after some
weeks stating that the dog had disap.
peaIei Dave had not turned up in
Allentown, but day or so later, as
the Doctor was looking down the
street he was greteed with the famil.
lar sight of Dave slowly trotting along.
The kindly doctor was very much af.
tected by his old dogs return, while
Dave capered around and wagged his
tail as hard as he could TO tell how
glad he was to get back to his old
home again. Dave left Trenton one
Wednesday, travelling the one hundred
miles in ten days. The veterinarian
thinks it probable that his dog made
the journey in easy stages, probably
forming acquaintsnoes among the
farmers on the way and resting sever
al days at n time. The dog was taken
away in the cars and the rare in
stinCt that enabled the homesick amin
al to find his way back over the strange
country is nice thing to reflect upon.

GRIP QUICKLY KNOCKED OUT

"Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and
myself contracted severe colds which
speedily developed :nto the worst
kind of la grippe with all its miserable
symptoms says Mr.. ]. s. Egleston
of Maple Landing, Iowa. "Knees and
Joints aching, muscles sore, head
stopped up, eyes and nose running,
with alternate spells OF chills and
fever, We began using Chamberlain
Cough Remedy, aiding the same with
a dose of Chamberlain Stomach and
Liber Tablets and by its liberal use
soon comsletely knock1d out the grip"
1t is a good plan to take dose OF
the Tablets when you have cold.
They promote a healthy action of the
bowels liver and kidneys which is
always beneficial when the system is
congested by cold or attack OF the
grip. For sale by all druggists.
