A healthier, heartier, happier man than John J. Neill, of 2437 North 9th St., Phl!a- delphia, could not be found in days search: The fact that he is still alive is a constant wonder to his friends.
 Several years ago he began to suffer 1n- describable miseries from stone in the blad- der. An eminent physician in Philadelphla told him that surgical operation was nec- essary. So much did he dread the result for if unsuccessful it meant death, that he put off the evil day as long as possible. While in this frame of mind, he heard of

A FOUR DAYS SALE. REMARKABLY LOW PRICES ON SUITS AT MEIGS < COMPANY

What with the carpenters busy with alterations and the imminence or semi-annual inventory, stocks must De moved quickly. So four-days' sale has been inaugurated, in which such prices are named on all the suits and overcoats in the store that ready and eager buying will achieve the result aimed at. The entire range of mems suits and fall overcoats are covered by three small prices, while two extreme ly low prices will work the expulsion of the entire stock of youths suits
 It is quite needless to say that buying is brisk at Meigs & Co.'S in spite of the litter and noise made by the busy carpenters and the general disarrange- ment of things generally: All the other departments contribute their quota of unusual bargains to this four days movement. As the sale ends next Tuesday there is little time for hesitation on the part of those who covet a smart Meigs & Go. suit or over coat at a merely nominal price. Buy ing in haste never means repent1ng at leisure when the purchase is made at Meigs & Co.'s big store.1~

The growth of the Regal business from one store and small mail order business 15 years ago to chain of lO2 stores and many special agencies such as Davis & Savard of Bridgeport, to- day is evidence of the dependable Qual- ity of Regal shoes. For long time this has been the largest retail shoe business in the world and there is no reason why this rapid extension of business should not continue at the same rate as it has in the past. The Regal Go. was the first and only shoe manufacturers to adopt the making of quarter sizes and it has given them an advantage in fitting that no other make has. Davis & Savard, shoe agents.

Thomas Lewis, retired, of 615 Mill

former statement made in 1896 about
Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me
eight years ago and the cure then
made has been lasting and | have had
no return of my old trouble. Before
using them | was greatly troubled with

mended but got no relief. The lame
ness over the kidneys and the terrible
aching continued i'll spite of every
thing that | did and there seemed to
be no relief for me- | learned about
Doan's Kidney Pills and read the state
ments made by people who had used
them, and concluded to try them. They
not only removed the lameness and
backache but they benefited my health

nUST NAME
SPECIFIC TERRI
For Which Respective Candidates
for Supervisors Are NOmi-
mated.

Considerable trouble is being caused
in many parts of the State under the
new township road law by the fact
that many of the township caucuses
fail to designate the term for which
the new supervisors are nominated.
Under the law there are three to be
elected. one for one year, one for two
years, and one for three years. The
nomination is not legal unless the term
of the office for which the nomination
is named is noted with the name of
the candidate This is governed by
the present laws, and occurs likewise
when school directors, councllmen and
other such officers are TO be elected for
full or unexpired terms. 4 correspon-
dent wants to know how the law is to
be clearly carried out, suggesting that
three men nominated for short terms
might have the highest number of
votes. aud thus have none elected for
the full term of three years. This Is
easily explained in the light of the
above statements. When a man is
nominated for supervisor, he must be
nominated. if at all for one OF the
three terms-One. two, or three years,
and ii must be definitely stated. Once
nominated for a one year-term he can
not be elected to the office for any 9th,
er term at that election. For instance,
man nominated for oneyear term
might secure more votes than any OF
the three-year or two-year nominees
vet fail of election in case he did no
get more votes than the other One-yea
| nominees
In cases where nominations have
been made and the term of the nomi
nees for supervisor have not been Civ
en-, the papers are returned to the otfic
erS that the terms may be set out.
