Robbed the Grave
A starling incident of which Mr.
John Oliver, of Philadelphia, was
the'subject, is narrated as follows:
was in a most dreadful conition.
Myjskin was almost yellow, eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain con-
tinmually in back i and sides, no
appetite kept on gradually grow
ing weaker day by day. Three
pbysiciana had given me up. For
tunately, a friend advised trying
'Electric Bitters,' and to my great
joy and surprise,, the first bottle
made a decided improvement, I
continued their use for three weeks,
and am now a well man. I know
they saved my life, and robbed the
other victim," No one errouid fail
to try them. Only 50 cents per bot
tle at P B Fetzer's Drug Store.

Sontewliat of a Coincident.
A day or two ago two young Dur
hamites went out hunting, and look
ine at the matter closely reveals a
singular string of facts. Both of
these men were twenty-four years of
age: they drove a hone twenty-four
years old; hunted with a dog four
years old, aod each one killed four
birdi. There are a good many 4's
in this item, which is said to be
tru in every particular in tact
more than we ever heard of be-4.

S: B Nickum, the inventor of a
new light which he claims will rev
olu ionize the process of illumina
tion, made the following statement
to-day: "The light is contained in
a round glass globe, in which so
called, gravitation is cut off. It can
be made of almost any brilliancy
and when the globes are once made
and sealed remains constant there
ofter, fl There are no wires and no elec
tric current, but the light never
goe? out, and when not in use can
be placed in a bureau drawer or any
convenient place until needed. The
globe is cold, there being no loss of
heat or movement from x the inte
rior to the outside.
sphere is no possibility of a fire
resulting from the use of the light,
for he instant there is a crack in the
glofee the light will be extinguished.
Thy can be broken j in a keg of
gunpowder, without the slightest
danger of an explosior.
"pght is a high period of moving
atoms to and from a centre, the cen
tre atoms being made to vibrate so
rapidly that the eye is made inser -sible
to such movement. In this is
involved the principle of the new
light." Ivogansport, Ind., . Dispatch.
