Bitters Known. BITTERS EUREK CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BITTERS No other medicine known so effecta. Ally purges the blood of deep seated diseases. Millions bear testimony to its wondorful curative effects. It is a purely Vegetable Preparation, made from tho native herbs and roots of Callfornia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the nee of Alcohol, It removes the cause of disonse, and the patient secovers his health.

XE in the great Blood Purifier and Life-giving Principle; a Gentle Purgative and Tonic; perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded lug the power of VINEGAR BiTTERS in healing the sick of every disease man is heir to. The Alterative, Aperient, Diaphoretio, Carminative, Nutritions, Laxative, Sedative. Counter-Irritant, Sudorifc, Anti-Billous, Solvent, Diuretic and Toule properties of VINEGAR BITTERS enceed those of any other medicine in the world. No person can tako the BITTERS according to diroctiona and remain long unwell, provitheir bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means, and the vital organs wasted beyond the point of repair.

Bilious, Remittent, Intermittent and Malarial Fevers, Are prevalent throughout the United States, particularly in the valleys of our great rivers and their vast tributaries during the Summer and Autumn, especially during seasons of anusual heat and dryness. These Fevers are Invariably accompanied by extensive derangements of the stomach, liver and bowels, In their treatment, a purgative, exerting powerful influence upon these organs, is abeolately nocessary. There cathartie for the purpose equal to Dr. J. VINEGAR BITTERS, as it will speedily remove the dark-colored viacid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs.

Fortify tho body against discase by purifying all its fuids with VINEGAR BITTERS. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus forearmed. It invigorates the Stomach and stimulates the torpid Liver and Bowels, oleansing the blood of all impurities, imparting life and vigor to the frame, and carrying off without the aid of Calomel, or other minerals, all poisonous matter from the system. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Headache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Pneumonia, Dizziness, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitasion of the Heart, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are at once relieved by VINEGAR BITTERS. For Inflammatory and Chronie Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, the Bitters have no equal.

In these, as in all constitutional Diseases, WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS has shown its great curative powers in the snort obstinate and intractable cases. Mechanical Persons gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type setters, Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life. are subject to Paralysis of the Bowels. To guard against this, take occasional doses of VINEGAR BITTERS. Skin Diseases, Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Ticers, Swellings, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ring-worms, Scald-head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations, Humors and diseases of the Skin, of whatever narge or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system- in a short time by the tase of the Bitters.

Pin, Tape and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelmintics, will free the system from worms like VINEGAR BITTERS. Measles, Scarlet Fever, Mumps, Whooping Cough, and all children's diseases may be made less severe by keeping the bowels open with mild doses of the Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood, or the turn of life, this Bitters has no equal. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when Its impurities burst through the skin in Eruptions or Sores; cleanse it when obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul your feelings will tell you when, and the health of the system will follow.

In conclusion: Givo the Bitters a trial. It will speak for itself. One bottle is a better guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertisement. Around each bottle are full directions printed in different languages. R.

On Tuesday evening, of this week, a strange young man called at the drug store of T. D. Thomas, on Bank street, and asked for two ounces of laudanum. Mr. Thomas mistrusted the man and gave him instead some harmless drug.

The stranger after looking at the drug handed it back, saying "this ain't what I want' and asking for any thing that would kill him, saying he wanted to die, on account of the unlucky termination of a love affair. When he saw that it was impossible to procure any thing with which to execute his design he offered Mr. Thomas $20 if he would give him something wherein he might find peace of soul and mind.

On the early morning train last Sunday, a Rev. McBride, of Brooklyn, N. was returning to Philadelphia with his demented brother in charge, who had recently escaped from the Pennsylvania Hospital and had been captured in Buffalo, N. Y. Some where between this place and Bowman's the crazy man sprang from the cars, and gaining his feet he threw off his coat and plunged into the river.

After he was missed from the train, it was for a time impossible to judge where he left the cars. In this sad plight, after his cold bath, he wandered across the mountains and turned up at Chas. Lentz's, in NisHollow. Here he was given some old clothes and taken to the Parryville station. He had cropped his long beard with a pair of small scissors, and by his fall had scratched and bruised his face and injured his leg.

His brother on the 4 p. m. train was anxiously inquiring for him, and hardly recognized his tramp-like looking brother when he found him. The Coal Trade. Last Monday's Philadelphia Ledger says: If anxious inquiry, activedemand and larger orders for coal than can le conveniently filled at present are any indications of a there is a small one on for the anthracite coal trade now.

During the past week numerous good sized orders for anthracite coal have been placed in this city, and we are intormed that New York operators and dealers have been similarly favored. Prices have been generally advanced within the past week or two, and the actual figures obtained for anthracite range from five to fifteen cents per ton higher than have been ruling heretofore. This favorable change in the condition of the antbracite coal trade, judging from present indications, promises to continue throughout this month, and it is the opinion of several conservative and well informed coal operators that the crisis of the season of 1885 has been safely passed over, though long impending danger was narrowly escaped.

We are always glad to see the patrons and friends of the school, and glad to swell the list to a hundred if we could. Parents and friends by visiting the schools and taking an interest in the pupils, thus encourage the teachers in their work, and often little misunderstandings between the parent and teacher would be much more amicably settled than they usually are. Assuming charge of the schools as I did, an entire stranger to both teachers and pupils, it necessarily took some time to get things to move along smoothly, but surrounded as I am by an able corps of assistants, who, as far as I can judge, are doing all they can to further the interests of the pupils in their respective rooms.

Mangled almost out of all buman resemblance Nathan George, the night engineer, lay dead between two cog-wheels. To keep the mines going it is necessary to run the pumps night and day so that the laborers can work on 2 dry surface. George was required to be on duty on Sunday as well as other nights.

Sunday evening he left his wife and five children happy home that was the last they saw of him until Monday morning, when his mutilated remains were taken home.
