In What Does Woman's Beauty Consist Which So Powerfully Attracts Men It Is Not the Pretty Face Which. Charms, but the Bright Eyes, Glowing Cheeks, Vigorous Vitality and Exuberant Spirits. This Hint to Wise Women is Sufficient. Keauty lies less in tho features than iu tile condition and expression of the face. 'Che Creator has endowed every with beaut v.

and every woman in good health, who is of a cheerful nature, is beautiful a n.l comely to look upon. A clear, fresh, wholesome look is 'the result of the possession of good health, and no woman can bo beautiful and attractive without wood health. The dull, detul.gnawing pain, he of nervousness, weiiknosSjOppression and discouragcment.the tired, listless, languid feeling, tho shooting noiiift, the head, the pain iu the back, all these are symptoms of a disordered! system, and all these are beauty killers, producers of dull, leaden complexions, unnatural flushing's, dark circles under the eyes, bjhk heads, lusweless ey aiid other disfigurements which divest women of their natural gift of beauty. Why be homely when you can be lieatuiful and' attractive' Get good health and with it those looks and attributes which attract please and fascinate. It is within your power to do so, for it is witnin every womans power to be well and strong, and hence look 'her best, if she will use Dr.

Greene's Nervura to give her strong, vigorous nerves, pure, i itib blood, a clear complexion, and thus restore the energies and vitality of sound and perfect health. Read what Dr. Greene's Nervura. does for others. It will do the same for von.

Here is one from1 a Lancaster county paper: "A tombstone the Moravian section of the Milton Grove cemetery bears the following inscription on Mary Hunter: 'The soul of our mother is Gone to the triumph above, Exalted to Jesus and Clasped in the arms of his "Tradition has it that Mrs. Hunter was tortured, and killed by the Indians at the same time when Albert Francis, from Zweibrucken. Holland, met his violent death Juno 26, 1756. while plowing on the Fisher farm, near Swatara, where he was captured, scalped, and cruelly beaten to death by Indians. His remains repose in the same burying round." This attempt at an historical fact is too glaringly false that it must not pass by unnoticed or uncorrected'.

While it is true there is a Moravian grave yard at Milton Grove, which is a few miles northeast of Mt. Joy, as well ono "near the Swatara" Bethel and that Francis Albert, liot Albert Francis, was murdered by the Indians1 at the time mentioned, he was buried in the Bethel grave yard and not the Milton Grove grave yard as the above would have it. It is very doubtful if the tradition of Mrs. Hunter's death is correct, as the two locations are separated by nearly fifty miles, which at that time was a great distance. The chronie'er of events a century and a half ago should be more correct, so that he who reads may read correctly.

Resolutions and engagements proposed to the consideration of the congregation under the care of Rev. iUu Black, Adams Pa.

Rev. John Black was pastor of the Upper Marsh Creek Presbyterian Church from Aug. 15, 1775 to 1794 when he resigned, owing to troubles arising frooi these resolutions. "We the subscribensi. member of the Upper Presbyterian congregation of Marsh Creek, now under the pasltotral care of Rev.

John Blaek, taking into serious consideration the mournfully declined state of religion, in general, and among ourselves in particular, and being we hope through grace, desirous of a reformation, do in order to effect the same in dependence upon divine aid, enter into the following resolutions and engagemente. 1st. as we are well assured that re hgion is a personal thing, that the pnn ciples thereof must be implanted in the souls of individuals before it can be ex ternally exemplified, and that without this all1 attempts for public reformation will be insignificant and fruitless; therefore, we resolve each for himself to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, to bo above all things concerned that we may be born of God and be imitators of him as dear children, to live the life we now live in the flesh iu the daily exercise of repentance towards God, and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and to give all dilligence to make our calling and election s'V'v 2dly. And as we know that it would be both folly and presumption to expect the end without tne means, so we resolve that Wt 'M C'citiously use the means which God hath appointed for the convhe tion and conversion of sinners, and for Ihe edification and comfort of believers frequently reading and studying the holy uigemiy atiienaing on mere in, uiiu otaer means ot instruction, ana not absenting ourselves when we have op iwrtunity and ability; keeping holy the Lord's day, publicly owning our allegiance to Him iu the sacraments, daily worshiping him in our families and in secret, and in one word, endeavoring to walk in the path of duty, that we may become wise salvation, may grow in grace and knowledge and be furnished for every good word and work. "3dJy.

We have reason to lament the prevalence of a base selfishness, and the sad deoay of brotherly love which is the bond of iK rfectness. therefore we resolve, that, we will cultivate this grace in our own souls and expi ess. it in the genuine fruits thereof tow aril all' mankind as we have opportunity, but especially towards one another, not only avoiumg alii vexing and injurious ways of treating otliers, but making them as happy as we can; being tender of each others characters, encouraging others the good ways of the Lord, warning and one anotner in tne spirit ot oekness: a kins in good part each other's admnitons and advices; faithfully watctWng over one another for good, and liehavilts; towards each other as brethren hd sistei ae osta Jp" i Mrs. William Battels, 230 East 87th Street, New York City, says: ltr.

Greene, 35 West 14th New 1 ork City, the most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, can be consulted absolutely free of ciKirge, persona.iy or by letter. "4thly. Notwithstanding we know and thus own that it is our duty to do good unto all men, as we have opportunity, and to perform the offices of good neighbourhood even to the worst of men, yet we also Rnow tnat wnosoever is a mend of the world is an enemy of God, that evil com munications! corrupt good manners, and t.bat our dear Lord has commanded us to mark those thait walk disorderly and not according to me gospel, ana to nave no company with, them. Therefore we resolve that we will shorn the company of the infidel, the scoffer, the profane and disorderly as far as is consistent with the above named duty, that we will not make companions and friends of those who manifest themselves to be the enemies of the cross of Christ, whose god is their belly, whose glory is their shame, and who mind earthly things, but that we will associate with the saint with whom shall be our delight. "othly.

Being convinced that the church and individuals in it under the gospel dis pensa tion ought to perform everv part of religious worship according to the light and fullness of the gospel, and that the king and head of all the church has not confined us ito the psalmody of the Mosaic dispensation, we resolve tliait we wild walk in. the light and liberty wherewith. Christ bath made us free, glorifying God and edifying one another by singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, founded on and containing in them the rich discoveries of tho word of Christ, as well as by using those psalms of the Jewish Church, which are evidently suited to every period of the dispensation of grace. "Othly. As we desire to depart from all iniquity, 'so in a particular manner we wisJa to discount ena nee and abandon those evils which though; unhappy are neither I reckoned shameful nor censurable; there fore we resolve, ttoait we will not practice any kind of gambling such as horse racing, dice, cards, games of lots, wagering, or anything whereby our own or others property would be lost or gained.

7.thJ3r We feso lre ail the di comprehended under the general I wnvnl 1 i.T 1 rr .,1. flesh to fulfil the hist thereof, or fulfilling the desires of the flesh, and such like; that is to say stage plays, fesitival dancing and frolicking, meetings for the purpose of eating and drinking as the chief end, and in a word 'all those indulgences whereby precious time is wasted; idleness and dissipation promoted; the influence of the body oxer the mind strengthened and the concerns of eternity driven from our thoughts. "8thly. We resolve against extravagance and foppery in dress, and engage to confine ourselves and our families to a decent simplicity, taking special care that "iff expense bothi for food and clothing be within the limits of our clear estate, and being more concerned for the adorning of our inward than our outward man. "9thly.

We resolve that we will not make a common, much less a free use of spirituous intoxicating liquors, and that we will guard at all times against drinking so as will in the least disturb our frame, or in anywise injure us in rational or religious exercises. Wc resolve to avoid temptation to the vice of drunkenness, to shun the company of drunkards, to abstain from such places where such liquor is sold except when the pursuits of our lawful business or the duties of good neighborhood oblige us to visit them. Moreover we resolve that we will not give such liquor to such people whom we employ alt harvest, at house raisings or any other gathering for labor, to such a degree as to injure them and at vendues which any of us may make we will! not afford any of it at all. "10th.We are fully persuaded of the unchristian nature and disturbing consequences of the practice of fellow Christians siieing each other at the civil law, which is so prevalent at this time, and therefore we resolve, first," that we will endeavor to the utmost to pay all our just dbts as they become due, and to fulfill our eontracts punctually and thereby prevent the occasion of many suits; and secondly, if any difference of judgment as to the matter of right shall arise between any of us, we will submit to a number of men of our own society mutually chosen by the differing parties, by whose award the matter shall' be determined. And even in ease of common debt if a brother shall fail to pay at the time promised we will not immediately apply to the civil authority, buit will bring the case first before our church session, by way of complaint, provided nevertheless that if any one shall refuise t.ji comply with the judgment of chosen as aforesaid, or disregard the directions of session we do hold ourselves at liberty to resort to the civil law.

Moreover we resolve to endeavor the recovery of debts and settlement of difficulties which' may take place between us and the Christian societies in the same way, and not sue any man until other methods fail and it. lieeomes the last resort. Hth. We acknowledge that it is an awful sin to enslave our fellow men against their consent when they have not forfeited their liberty, and therefore, (1) those of that we will never purchase or keep a slave and (2) those of us who are now possessed of slaves wsnlve t.1,at win never purchase any more, and so long as we keep those we have we will treat them With gentleness and humanity, and endeavor to make their condition as comfortable as circumstances will allow; that we will send to school such children of them as we may be possessed of, that they may be taught to read the Scripture; that we will endeavor to instruct the old and young of them iu the principles of Christianity and afford them also the lilertv to attend on the public means instruc tion that they may finally enjoy the same salvation with ourselves, 12tbi As the LoTi Jo.su, ni.ist tjblished a government in is church, of which He is the Supreme King and head, hath apiointed a ministry to teach and with the aid of subordinate officers to exercise church government; we own that this ministry and government shall be re garued by all those who call themselves Christians as the most sacred on earth. and that every instance of contempt or causeless opposition to them is a virtual renunciation of the authority of Christ.

Therefore we resolve that we will yield all dutiful Tespet't and obedience in the Lord to ouir church officers and government, avoiding to speak anything con temptous or even disrespectful of them, but as our Lord has commanded, to esteem them very highly in love for their works sake, endeavoring in our respective nositions to strengthen their hands in the regular and faithful execution of their i office: humbly submitting to censure when faults expose us to it, and making I known to our church officers when any of fellow members are guilty of any un coimucT. as it is an express ordinance of Christ that they who preach the gospel should lie bv the eosnel. the support of the ministers of reli a debt due to God and the withholding of it a robbery committed against Himse f. we further resolve that we will consecrate the first fruits of our enevgy 'l rain to the purpose of supporting those who labor in word and doctrine, confiding the providence of God that as far ns Tie sees best for He will render double uutOMlft and pour a lWing on our basket and our store. "13th.

We, the pastor and ruling elders of the congregation aforesaid, knowing that it would be very unreasonable to expect a reformation, in the society should we be irregular, unfaithful or wanting on our part, resolve not only to observe the foregoing resolutions, but also that we will endeavor to be examples for every good word and work, making certain of governing our own families well in the first place, knowing that they who do not so are unnt to govern tue cnuren, taitn fully executing our respective offices, neither respecting the person of man in judgment, nor winking at the irregular conduct of any, mailing our business in 1 all prudence to know the real character and behavior of every one over whom we i nreside: instructing the ignorant, strength ening the afflicted, reproving and admonishing the disorderly, warning and exhorting all and honestly making known i to fellow members from time to time, es neciallv when met in session, whatever we ourselves know or may be informed by others respecting the irregular conduct of any members of our society, in order i that sin may not be suffered to rest upon i them, that measures may be taken to recover tlutii out of the snare of satan and renew them to repentance that our communion, may be kept pure. litn. As we will sign these resolutions with our own hands, so we resolve that all those who shall hereafter be admitted to the distinguishing privileges of Christians, as stated members of our society shall engage to observe the same, hereby declaring that a violation of these resolutions, as well as the practice of anything else which is made censurable in the Word of God by any of our memliers. shall, upon conviction, be a sufficient ground for church) censure, and exclusion from Christian privileges until the offender shall manifest repentance and return to his duty. At the same time declaring also that it is not am intention hereby to separate from the general body of Christians to which we at present belong, nor yet to refuse occasional communion to any whom we may ha ve reason to conclude according to the rule of the irosoel to be true Christians, notwithstanding from their local situation they mav not have it in their power to observe some of these resolutions."

E. SWOFE. Newville, Fa. HISTOBICAL SKF TCII BUBO. OF PHILIPS' II.

In addition to the improvements already mentioned, Mr. Philips erected a powerful saw mill, a large and commodious brick hotel, a mansion house for himself, which is now owned by Mrs. Laura Mull; a large residence that was occupied by Richard Plumbe, but is now the property of Mr. O. P.

Jones, cashier of the First National Bank, and likewise started an excellent stock farm, which embraced the great stretch of "Beaver Meadows." on the west side of the Moshannon, through whiohl wide ditches were dug for drainage purposes. The manager of this farm was ohn Matley, some of whose children are yet living in the town and vicinity. Dr. John Plumbe, who was connected with Mr. Philips in some of his business entemrises.

was sent to England in 1820 and brought hither a number of iKrsons. most of whom were to be employed in the dfferent works and others on the stock farm. Though a little out of chronological order, it may as well be stated here that at a later date, probably 12. Dr. Plumbe built a forge on Six mile Run.

a short distance north of the Pbilipsburg ana union vine pike, at a iMwnt where water was abundant and wood, without hauling, could be run on slides down the face of the steep hills, nearly to the forge itself. The pig iron used in it was pro cured at Julian. Martha and Hannah fur naces in Ba.d Eagle alley, and the forg ed iron was fcia tiled to Alexandria and Petersburg, in Huntingdon county, to be shipped elsewhere on the canal. In 1832, the property was purchased by David Adams, the father of our townsman. Oscar and of John M.

Adams, of Clearfield. After conducting the business seven years, Mr. Adams sold a naif inter est to Dr. Ingalls. and for three years longer the forge was run under the management of the new firm.

Dr. Plumbe went west in 1834, aifX at Du buaue. Iowa, where, through his own agency, it is said, he brought his eventful lite to a lamentable end, in the year lo7. Ainonsr the men who accompanied him from England in 1820. was Thomas Lever, for whoan the stone house, since transformed into the Schoonover block, was built.

When the screw factory was nut in operation, he was made its over seer, tie later on married a daughter of John Loraine, who had been in duced to come here from Philadelphia by another son in law, Or. llliam 1'. Dewees. It appears that Dr. Dewees itful made an ineffectual effort to secure the chair of one of the Professors in the University of Pennsylvania, which had become va cant during the period of 1812.

Chagrined at his failure, he came to Pbilipsburg, presumably in 1813, and invested largely in the Philips enterprises. 1 le remained here six or seven years, dwring which time he extended bis practice to Clearfield, or Oldtown, as it was more generally called in those days. Business affairs did not, however, prosper as he had anticipated, and when his means were exhausted, ihe disposed of his interest at a sacrifice, and returned to Philadelphia a poor man. Encouraged by Dr. Chapman and other old friends, he soon gained a competency, eventually suceeeed ing in getting the coveted professorship, and through his superior ability and to medical literature, placed himself at the head of his profession iu this country.

After his departure, Dr. Ingalls. of Half Moon, and physicians form Beliefonte, attended to the ailments of Dcople in this neighborhood until 1S22, when Mr. Philips made an arrangement with Dr. Alex.

McLeod, of PhiladolphSa. to come here. The latter remained until 1830, when he removed to Lewistown, from thence to Pittsburg, and subsequently to Meadville. The loss of his wife and most of his cliildren. changed the current of his thoughts and induced him to prepare for the ministry.

Iiv 1845 he took orders in tlie Episcopal Church, wended his way to Mississippi and Louisiana, followed his new calling there until 1849. returned to Pennsylvania, and a few vears later became the rector of St. Andrew's church in Clearfield. He was an able and zealous minister, held in the highest esteem by all who knew him, and died greatly deplored by the community in which he spent his last days. In 1830 Dr.

Frederick Horner was engaged by Mr. Philips, but left at the end of two vears. when a French doctor, named Rod rigue. took this place. His stay was also short, and he was followed in 1834 by Dr.

Henry Loraine, who remained until 1S37. Dr. Loraine was a little eccentric, but plain in di ess and manners, a skillful, nrudent and attentive physician, and when he died at Clearfield, in 1S59. left a large estate to lie divided among his children. Some of his grandchildren still live here.

Since bin time there has been no lack of phiysiciar.s to minister to the sick of the town, but it would require too much enace to make such mention of them as they deserve and ought to receive. The completion of the Pennsylvania canal, in 1831, nenrly destroyed the iron business of Mr. Philips. Up to that date he had been ahle to compete with the manufacturers in Huntingdon county, and derive some profit from the trade, but mice the canal was opened those haying works along its line enjoyed such advantage over him that he felt constrained to abandon distant markets, and make only what iron was needed to supply he screw factory and an inconsiderable local demand. This had a depressing effect on his business generally, and doubtless influenced to a greater or less1 extent all his sub Ken uent movements.

I lard ma Philips was no ordinary man. He was progressive and enterprising. He bad ideas far in advance of tbe age at that particular iieriod of time. He not onlv contributed largely to the construction of the Philipsburg and Susquehanna turnnike. which formed an inioprtnnt link in the chain of conumini cation with Lake Erie, but as early as 1826 commenced ma kin? surveys, at ihisi own expense, from nis mines neaT Philipsburg, to Bald Eagle creek, and thence to Tyrone forges, with a view of determining the feasibility of building a railway across the Allegheny mountains to connect with canal navigation at the mouth of the Little Juniata.

He applied to the Legislature of the State for an act of and a bill that t'ad been prepare, was fin.i,".lv nased on the 30th day of March. 1S30. He succeeded in getting subscri tions for 600 shares of stock, at $1I0 each, some of the installments paid up. and as lie expressed himelf. had the r.Kul "located in a very mqierior manner lv Moneure Robinson; a competent nxi exierieucel engineer, on a route that is claimed to be.

in. a general way. better than the one chosen aftrwards for the Tyrone and Clearfield railroad. Despite his efforts, the project did not receive the encouragement it deserved, and be therefor offered to hyiiothecate to leading capitalists of Philadelphia the profits of his coal mines to guarantee an interest, of six ner cent, if thev woulI advance the necessary funds. This failing, he triitl to secure aid from the State, in shape of guarantee of five per cent, for twenty four yearn on, $250,000, for the coiii tiletiom of the work, and a bill for this nnrpose was reported in the Legislature but never acted on.

He then undertook to form a stock company, 1000 shares to le siubscrilxil by citizens of the United States, and the rest, to be placed in England: in furtherance of this plan, he had an advertisement inserted in the London Morning Chronicle iu September. 1N35, giving full particulars and soliciting sub Kcrintions from English iiivstors. He had meanwhile asked the Legislature for authority to make it a limited partner shin, which be regarded as an essential to success1, and expressed the fear that without it his career of usefulness wou'd be arrested, the estate in this country ret rogarle to its former condition, his manufacturing establishments ruined, many industrious persons throwa out of eni Tilorroent. and the honie market for neighboring farmf destroyed.

But the fates were against bin. the railroad was not built, and the sequel will show that his predictions were to some extent correct.

The different works at Philipsburg had meanwhi.e been kept in operation. The manufacture of screws was continued during the year 1835, but in either 183 or 1837, this work was suspended. If Mr. Philips had any intention of resuming, he made ho efforts to do so for several years, and then it became in feasible through a circumstance that he could neither forsee nor control. In 1S3G.

General Thomas W. fl.uvey, the father of Hay ward Augustus1 Harvey, inventor of the world renowned Harvey ized armor plate for war vessels, removed to Poughkeepsie, N. Y. A screw manufacturing company was organized there during the same year. The elder Harvey was one of the incorporators, and the p'ant was based on several of his inventions.

These were patented in 1840. The product was the gimlet pointed screw. The improved article, which was probably manufactured, and placed on the market soon after the patent was "applied for," at once superseded the old blunt end screws, and thereafter no attempt was made to again start the Philips factory. Mr. Philips had in the meantime concluded to dispose of all his property in this country, and in 1844 made an agreement for its sale to Daniel1 Ullinan, of New York, and N.

Stanley, of Vermont. These came to Philp'shurg and put the forge in operation, but the iron business proving unremunerative, they were forced at the end of two years to annul the agreement. The estate was afterwards sold to Morgan, Hale who still hold portions of it, and Mr. Philips returned to England, where he died the 5th of December, 1854, in the 71st year of his age. Philipsburg was regarded as a stirring and prosperous town during the time its manufacturing establishments were in operation, 'but once they were permanently closed it became "a dull old place," and continued so until it was livened up hy the wood'suieii while the timber and log jobs lasted'.

Then stagnation again set in, and sustained an additional check through disastrous fire in 185G, which destroyed the equivalent of two squares in the business part of the town, but larger and more commodious buildings were erected on the site of the burned ones, among them Mrs. Foster's block and the spacious stores of V. Gray and the Ilirlinger estate. When the Tyone Cleafield Railroad was completed to this point, and the coal mines in the vicinity were opened, Philipsburg soon gained the reputation of being the liveliest and most progressive inland town of the State. It kept up its business pace until the general depression set in which is yet felt all' over the land.

though our citizens do not believe that existing conditions can continue much i longer. The town has at present a poxmlation about 3,500, not counting the adjoining villages that are separated from it by arbitrary lines only. It has paved streets, electric lights, steam heat, and a superior water supply. The Episcopalians, Metho dists. Presbyterians, Baptists, United Brethren and Roman Catholics have 1 church edifices' of their own.

There are numerous dry goods, clothing, millinery, shoe, grocery and hardware stoi es; two national banks, two planing mills, two machine shops and one large tannery; lawyers, doctors and druggists; good hotels, restaurants, bakers and butchers; liverymen, tailors, shoemakers, undertakers, furniture and other dealers and I tradesmen "too numerous to mention." the centre of a square, surrounded bv umbrageous trees, is the public school building, large, commodious and complete all its appointments. The pupils are in i charge ot an efficient corns of instructors, which comprise one sunerintehdent. one principal, and fifteen female teachers. The present generation, with the educational conveniences it enjoys, can scarcely form correct idea of the difficulties the early inhabitants of the town experienced in getting instruction for their children. For many years the parents had to do the greater part of the teaching, and it really seems strange that such a educated and far seeing man as Mr.

Phillips had omitted to make provision for a school Mrs.MeCloskey.so far as can be learned, taught the first school. The date is not ascertainable, but it is scarce i.v to oe oouDteu. that in 1818 illiam! Kelly taught in the log house that was subsequently used in constructing the old church. He and those who succeeded him, probably confined their teaching to the primary branches, for in the summer Oeorge Schultz John Ayres, John Dale, James Collins, George Rail, John Flee gal. James Kinnear, John Meek, William HaJl, John Plumbe, ltichard Plumlie and Henry Devine, males fifteen in all.

This number does not appear large when compared' with the six to seven hundred pupils now in daily attendance at the Philipsburg graded school, during its nine months' term. On the north side of Perque Isle street, bet ween Sixth and Seven tli, stands an odd looking edifice, which is usually called "the old mud it is rough on the outside, has a square tower at its front, and its architecture lMars traces of the Gothic silyle. In the little adjoining cemetery some of the fore fathers of the hamlet sleep," and few aged oaks and tall green pines ki ep constant vigil oyer the silent graves. Among the touibsiouro. enclosed by an iron tence.

is a tas'ty. wmte mnrble obelisk, with, a bronze plate on one side of its bajje. which bears t'he following in script ion "IN HOC S1GNO VI NOES. In memory of Hardman Philips, the foundorand benefactor of the settlement of Fhililisburg, this cross is erected by bis sorrowing widow. Sopliia Philips.

Near the northwest comer of the same cemetery in a plot enclosed by a neat galvanized iron railing, are several well cared for graves.

On two of the white marble tombstones appear the names of John G. Schultz, one of the original pioneers, and of Rosalie, his wife. From the inscriptions it appears that she died on 7th of 1842, aged 72 years, and he on the 8th of 1844, aged 83 years. His son Frederick is allso buried there, as are likewise some other members 'of the Schultz family. The lot on which the old church is erected was part of the ouitlot that John G.

Schultz received when he first came to Mosihaunontown. As already stated, he had cleared a portion of it, and when the eariy settlers needed a place for burying their dead, he permitted them to use it for that purpose. Afterward, when Mr. Philips wislied to secure a burial ground, he offered to exchange another piece of laud for it, and Mr. Schultz having knowledge of a spring of excellent water in a small grove of sugar maples on the opposite side of the creek, accepted four acres there in lieu of it.

He later on purchased twenty odd acres adjoining, and the two pieces are embraced in the farm now owned by his grandsons, Christopher C. and Frederick A. W. Schultz. It 'cannot be definitery stated when the church edifice was given its present form and apparancej but it was certainly over half a century ago.

Originally it was a log building, chunked and daubed, and had been used as both a school and meet iiig hiouse. When Mr. Philips donated the property to the town, it was placed in the hands of trustees, who are still elected annually. No regular religious services were observed in the building until after it. was reniodele and improved.

Sunday worship was, however, held at tha Philip mansion, or "The Big House," as the people were wonit. call it, under the auspices of Mr. Philips herself. In 1833 or 1834, tho Trinity Episcopal Church was built, mainly through the efforts of that estimable lady, since which time denominations that had no meeting house of their own have been using the old one as occasion required. Around it cluster many interesting memories, and it ought to be carefully preserved as a connecting link between the dead past and the living present, for not a vestige remains of tiie screw mill, forge or other manufacturing plants erected by the enterprising founder of that town.

MANNING GREAT BRITAIN' C0STLMER, On Proper Materials for Spring, House and Street Wear. MODIFIED RUSSIAN BLOUSE Braiding Not Abated New Small Waist Effects Original Skirt and Blouse Designs.

Dublin, Jan. 5. The fin de tsiecle woman no longer appears at the breakfast table in loose gowns and disheveled locks bidden under a coquettish cap but greets the morn like Minerva fully armed and equipped for the busy day's fray and completion of duties and in a gown absolutely "comme il faut," and very much more practical and chic than that of Zenus' brilliant daughter. The morning or house gown should be of exquisite refinement and elegant simplicity, and suitable for every kind of morning occupation, as making and receiving morning calls, shopping and marketing and comfortable enough for light household work, in which the American woman excels far lieyond her English sister. Ladies' cloth, covert or broudcloth, drap d'ete are shown by the manufacturers and in the shops as the proper materials for the morning or house gown and are so various in quality and coloring that they suit every one, and the trimmings are stil.

more adaptable to one's purse and personal' taste. We should say that Fashion dictates only the form of the garmentcolor and trimmings characterize the individual taste of the wearer. Our model of to day is made of fine cloth of a deep shade of green with a running black line through it. The skirt is quite p.ain and made right over the padded hips and extender; but flares considerably and rather suddenly from the knees downward, finishing at the hem by a lwrder of rich black passementerie. The Zouave bodice of the same cloth is lx.rdered with a black satin band beautifully liand ehibroidered in gold and jewels, and opens over a vest of emerald green satin, veiled with fine black "lisse embroidered in gold.

The high collar of folded satin has a full ruche of gold embroiderer! lisse, which also forms a frill around the waist of the sleeve. The folded belt is of black satin. The Bussian blouse will be hardly recognized in thi modified form, as the oaggy effect will be in front, proving verv much more acceptable, as the back will be allowed its graceful concave curvis which are not niy hidden but deformed by the folds of the Russian blouse. Braids and braiding show no abatement in public favor and as women alwavs favor any style which tends to make the waist look smaller, a new design is introduced which promises to le popular on account. The effect is produced by a wide braid down the front, rather in the style of the box plait of last year.

This is connected by narrow braid, arranged in bias stripes from the armholes to the wide centre braid, narrowing on either tside, so as to culminate in a point at the waist. A spider webbing of black silk joins the stripes of braid and gives a lace like appearance to the blouse. The skirt trimming must match the bodice and the pointed effect of the hraiding can be continued in deep yoke like garniture on top of the front and side gores of the skirt. Anoiher blouse is made of silk Hercules braid in a effect, crossed, at the yoke by bands of braid, edged with fluted silk braid. This effective little ruffle also edges either side of the belt which holds the blouse front in "'ace.

One of the most effective and original designs for trimming the bottom of the skirt consists of live rows of narrow braid arranged in form of three sides of an octagon, with a black design at infcerva's. A bowknot design is another handsome trimming for edging skirts and bodicr. The large shots show them made of silk or woolen braid with jet heading orin gold braid embroidered in daintily colored beads and spangles all ready to be ap iqued on the gown. For the evening or demi toilette, fronts of black net covered with gold or silver spangles show that the love for glitter is not outgrown. For matrons a novelty is shown in black net roles, spangled in blue, reilective of the favor which the ombination of black and blue finds in garments for all occasions.

While on the subject of evening wear, we must not forget the invention of a decided novelty which is so effective and unique that it is sure to supply the demand. It is called Point d'Orchid and is an applique of black net orchids embroidered in silk on a ground of white moussel ine de soie or finest white tulle. All indications iKint to the fact that luces will be as much worn in the coming spring and summer as they have during the past seasons. Flounces of iice will lie most popular and some cheap silk laces are finely knife pleated, uts exemplified in a young ladies frock of white satin, the skirt of which was entirely covered with three wide HouiKis of knife pleated white silk lace. The baby blou.

has a yoke of unlined white lace, while the fullness consists of the knife pleated, lace. Two narrow flounces of the samel ace edge the yoke evnd form a full cap on the shoulder of the gathered sleeve of white net. A folded sash of baby blue ribbon encircles the waist. (Alkrkd Dublin.)

The legislative decks are clear, and each house of Congress is settling down to its work. The big committees have divided themselves into sub eommittece, and the process of grinding out bills for the consideration of the House is already in operation. On January 5th, bills and 107 joint resolutions had been referred to the House committees, and bills and 77 joint resolutions to Senate committees. The calendars arc hoppers into which die grist of these committees is thrown. The House has already sent two.

of the great appropriation bills over to the Seuate. They carry $102,000,000. Eleven others are to follow. These aivpropriatiou bills are the essential of legislation. Without them the Government is blocked.

When the differences concerning them have been have been settled by conference committees, and they have passed both bouses and received the signature of the President, Congress will be ready to adjourn. It is evidently the intention of the leaders in the House to scale the general appropriation bills as closely as possible, and to force and adjournment at an early date. Under the rules other bills carrying appropriations can be buried without allowing them to come before the House. An appropriation bill is a privileged measure, and it is frequently used to shunt offensive legislation from the track. It has the right of way at all times, except when confronted by a contested election case or a special order from the Committee on Kules.

An appropriation bill can switch a contested election case from the track at any time by a vote of the House, but it requires unanimous consent to set aside a special order after it has once been sanctioned by the House. CItaucca ot Hawaii and Caba. Bearing this in mind, the question of the annexation of Hawaii becoms interesting. If the Seuate fails to ratify the treaty by a two thirds vote, a bill provid ing for its annexation will undoubtedly pass tnat Doay. it tne leaders of the House are opposed to such a bill they can easily prevent its consideration by the tiouse.

it may oe ounea in tne Committee on Foreign Affairs; and if reported from that committee, there is no wav ia which the House can consider it, except by a special order from the Committee on Rules. In other words, if Seaker Keed favors the bill, it will pass the House; if he is opposed to it the House will have no opportunity to vote on it. This aptly illustrates the eccentricities of purely "representative Government. The Cuban question is iii a similar situation. The House is held up by an ap plication or its own rules.

If turec quar ters of the members favor the recognition of Cuba, they would have no opportunity to vote for it. The Senate resolution is still buned ru the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. If this committee should report it favorably to the House it is in the condition of Lord Lovcll's wife, who jumped into a box that closed with a spring. It could not come up for consideration without the usual special order. Onco on the calendar it might be called up on susjH'nsion day, provided the Speaker wouia consent to recognize a member of the committee for this purpose.

Then a two thirds vote would jwiss it. Haatltrnptcr and Carrency. There is much talk about a bankruptcy bill. The Committee on the Judiciary ha vo reported a bill practically the same at the Torrey bill. General Henderson, of lowa, is tue cnairmau or tue Judiciary Committee.

He is also a member of the Committee on Kules. The bill will pn ably Iks brought before the House by a siiecial order. If this is done the friends of the Nelson bill will offer that as a substitute, unless precluded by the terms of the fjiecial order another spring in the Ihjx. At all events, it seems safe to say that if the House passes any bankruptcy bill whatever this session it will be the bill reported from General Henderson's committee. There is no probability, however, that such a bill will pass the Senate.

It can lie amended in that body so as to make it entirely unacceptable to the leaders in the House. The differences between the two bodies are aitarently so great that they cannot le settled in conference. The same i true of a. financial or a currency bill. Men of experience iu boh Houses agree that there is no probability of the pas sage of any such measure this session.

If necessary, the appropriation bills may be used to send them awry At ail' events there will lie ui Sabine assimilation. The situation was aptly described by Senator Thomas II. Carter, of Montana, who said that to osk the Senate to pass. i financial bill based on the plan of the Monetary Commission would be like "squirting water against the wind." The Coin mi tee on Bi vers and Harbois is already iu session and giving hearings to those interested in such appropriations. It is char that an effort to pass a river and harbor appropriation bill will be made before the end of the sissiou.

Such a bill has the same privilege, under the rules, as the other appropriation bills and is usually so framed that it can pass the House by a two 'tliirds vote, on suspension day. without debate. This was the case in the last House, and this House is equnlly as eager on the question of Internal improvements. Other Important Bill. Another bill of iuiportnace is what is known as tho anti scalping bill.

It was brought liefore the House in the last Congress uilT a s(iecial order from the Committee on Kules. It will undoubtedly come up this session in a similar way. In the Fifty fourth Congress it was put to sleep iu the Seuate. Its opponents had the benefit of a 6hort session, when appropriation bills were crowding each other to the wall. They used th se bills to defeat it.

They will have no such opportunity this session, for it is the long session, and Congress is not compelled to adjourn by the 4th of March. In strong cor 'trast with this, stand what are known a the letter carriers and postal clerks bills. Both have reached the calendars in previous Congresses, bat their friends have never been able to get a special order for their consideration. Another bill attracting considerable nt teu is what is known as the Ixmd bill. It revises the rates for second class matter in the mails, making stringent limitations affecting newspapers and all periodical publications.

Ihi proposition was brought before the house on a special order in the last cession and will probably receive similar treatment this session. Like the anti scalping bill, it came up last year in the short session, and was buried in the Senate. This year, however, it will have a free course, and the Senate will give it due consideration. Another important measure is the immigration bill, better known as the Lodge bill. It iascd the House by a large vote at the short session last year and was lost in conference.

Its fate will be different this year, as each house will have plenty of time for its consideration. The bill has been shorn of some of its objectionable features, and the prosjiects are fair for its passage. Army anil KTf Affair. The army and the navy are especially interested in legislation this session. The Committee on Military Affairs is considering a bill providing for two additional regiments of arti.lery.

The proposition is strongly favored, by the War Department. These regiments are wanted to man the guns in the new fortifications planned and being built for coast defense. If the appropriation for them is placed in the regular army appropriation bill it is liable to be stricken out on a point of order. Should a separate bill for this increase be reported from the committee, it would go on the calendar ami could not be considered without a special order from the Committee on Kules. Its fate, therefore, is primarily in the hands of the leaders ot the House.

Once before this lody, the bill would give rise to sharp discussion and probably pass. Judging from the liberality shown by the Senate in the appropriations for fortifications, it would readily pass that body. There are several vital measur.s lefore the Committee on Naval Affairs. One is the iiersoanel bill. It purtorts to lie a settlement of the long standing differences between the line and the staff, and is strongly urged by the Secretary of the Navy.

It is said that its passage will add at least six hundred thousand dollars yearly to the naval appropriation bill. This increase, even if the bill should le reiwrt ed from the Naval Committee, would undoubtedly lead to a bitter light in the House. Its chaiices are injured by the needs of the navy in other direction. More docks are requred. entailing expense of mil ions.

The armor plate matter is unsettled, ami three ships are now nn the stocks awaiting its settlement before they can 1m? completed. In the estimation of the statesmen of the House, docks and armor plate may be regarded as a greater necessity than a reorganization of the personnel of the navy. There is to day no United States dock in which a lirst clasi battleship can safely le overhauled. The struggV over the armor plate is 1m coining complicated. Members who never took an interest in naval matters are now advocating the construction of a Government plant.

Each seems lo have a district peeu'iarly adapted to the building of such a nl int. Some Hisriot hsve fl great dent of w.iter. ntid oaw Iniee semis of conl nrd iron or. There nr so manr arai'able eiwts for the erection of sneh a plant that it is extremely doubtful whether Government will ever go into the busiiie. of manufacturing armr plate.

Its experience with its gun found THAT RED J'octori Discuss This Most Catarrh The noso is the most prominent of the human features. For beauty or ugliness, much depends oa the nose. A red nose, a crooked nose, a swelled nose, disfigure the face as nothing else can. People who can afford it spend thousands of dollars to have the slightest irregularity of the nose corrected. Doctors frequently discuss this important subject iu public and private.

Dr. llartman has always contended that the most frequent cause for deformed noses is chronic nasal catarrh. Catarrh irritates ami coivgcsts the nose. This leads to frequently blowing the nose, which further irritates it. causing itching, which, is partly reievt by rubbing or scratching.

This is sure to twist the none sligtlt ly to one side or the other, or enlarge it slight'y; producing a nose dsely resembling "rum blossom." The only cure for such a case is a cure for chronic nasal catarrh. Many hundred eases have been cured by Dr. Hart man's free treatment.

The condition of the Naval Academy at Annapolis is another important matter. Some of the buildings have been condemned, and others are extremely unhealthy. Their condition is a disgrace to the nation. For years large appropriations have been asked for for the reconstruction of the academy. In no case have they been granted.

The Xary Department now recommends an appropriation of $430,000 to begin the work. It would probably take three or four mi lions to make the academy what it should be the leading naval school of the It certainly ought to be placed ou a par with the Mi itary Academy at West Point. The needs of the latter are provided iu a separate appropriation bill, known as the Military Academy bill, and reported from the Committee on Military Affairs, which reports the army appropriation bill. The appropriations for the Naval Academy are made in the naval appropriation bill itself, and their importance become apparently insignificant in comparison with the enormous appropriations for the increase of the navy. Uttmt to Farawn.

The Committee on Agriculture has also a problem before it. The florists, nurserymen and eed dealers of the country are aroused. They are deluging members with requests to stop the free circulation of seeds by the Government. There is no probability, however, that this will be done. The seed distribution will be continued, as the country member rule the roost, and the city members1 are iadiffer ent.

The Secretary of Agriculture him se has been a member of Congress, and his relations with members to day are far different from those of his predecessor. tiuch are some of the difficulties confronting the Fifty fifth Congress, aside regular appropriation bills. itn the expenses of the Government running forty millions of dollars behind the receipts in the first six months of the present fiscal year, it seems aafe to Bay that the leaders in the house will confine thcmsMvea In flmnvuipi otmn. i necessary for the siqvport of the Government, and switch aside all other efforts I to deplete the Treasury.
