Our New Rulers.
A peep in at our new borough board of
officers, sworn in Monday night, convinced
the casual observer that our borough has
a warden and board Of burgcsscs composed
of honest. capable, level-headed business
men, whose ambition is to unselfislily
serve the people to the best of their ability.
A unique and somewhat gorgeous basket
of exquisite rare buds and other choice
cut flowers stood in front of the new
warden. Dr. Gregory, the gift Of his fellow
associates in office, the burgesscs, as an
expression of their confidence and esteem
for their new Ofiicial head. Their duties
and responsibilities for the current year
are to be great, severe and arderous, but
we know they will receive, as they will'
merit, the gratitude of the best portion of
our citizens. Too much cannot be said
in praise of the retiring board. They
labored hard and anxiously for the ch~
fare and health of our borough, and are
entitled to the unmeasured gratitude Of
our people.

A Press Prize Won by a. School Girl.
The Pittsburg Press offered a $20 gold
piece as a first prize for a New Year‘s
story, written by a grammar-school or
high-school scholar. The Press reports
that“it has been awarded to a bright-
cyed little pupil of the Liberty School,
Miss Charlotte Keith, who came to reside
in this city but three months ago. Her
father is A. H. Keith, of the Carbon Iron
Company. Although she is but four
months past her fourteenth birthday, this
pretty little story is not the only literary
effort in which Miss Keith has disting—
nished herself. A sketch entitled “The
Story of a Red-blood Capsule,” which she
wrote some time ago for the Rutland (Ver-
mont) Herald attracted considerable at-
tention, and was copied into several medi-
cal journals. Miss Keith attended school
at 'Norwalk, Conn., before coming to
Pittsburw. She was sick in bed when the
announcement of the prize was made, and
entered into the competition at. the request
of her teacher with “A New Year’s Inci-
dent.” Miss Keith was apupii of Mrs.
Arthur Bissel, whose sister and assistant,
Miss Etta Sliettou, was married to Co].
Keith not many months ago. Miss Keith’s
mother was a daughter Of our fellow
citizen, Mr. C. F. Raymond.

The Chocolate Girl.
Possibly the most of the people who
are familiar with the picture of the choc.
olate girl, used for so long as an adver-
tisement, think it a creation of some ar-
tist’s fancy. On the contrary, it is a por-
trait, the portrait of a very pretty Vien-
nese woman, and has a romantic story
attached to it. It seems that some years
ago a. young German student of noble
birth fell in love with the pretty chocolate
girl who served him with this delicious
beverage in‘a French cafe. She was a rc-'
spec-table girl and he an honorable gentle-
man, and he married he. He felt proud
of her humble origin, and had her por-
trait paintcd by a famous German atrist in
the picturesque costume she wore when
he first saw her, and this portrait is now
among the most valued art treasures of
the government.

The sensational story about the clearing

Novelties in House Furniture.
A large assortment of fine artistic furni-
ture is shown at Degraaf &. Taylor’s, No.
47 West Fourteenth St., New York. Bed-
room furniture still shows the influence of
Eastlakc, though manufacturers have
managed to put. more graceinto the au-
gles of their recent furniture than the
English critic dictated in his somewhat
indefinite works on the art of furnishing.
Quartered oak sets made by sawing the
wood obliquely are especially handsome.
Bureau mirrors are seen in all shapes,
squaie, oblong, landscape style or round
Tudor. Ladies' desks areexhibited inn
great variety of woods, in old English
style, in French patterns of the time of
Marie Antoinette, and, oftener than in
any other, in old Jacobiu style with brass
mountings, claw feet, and deep grotesque
carvings. Cabinet book cases are arrang-
ed with the cabinets at the top, with and
without beveled mirrors and in a variety
of shapes. Centre tables show the influ-
ence of Chinese art. Many are patterned
with irregular shelves and finished with
sides in fretwork design. Other tables are
elaborately carved and ornamented with
flambeau knots. A large number Of old. .
fashioned stand with drawers such as
were common fifty years ago are shown
in mahogany and cherry.
Library and parlor furniture occupy a
large section of the spacious building of
the firm, and the beautiful and novel de-
signs to be seen in all qualities of their
goods will well repay inspection.—Nezo

Women In Business. 1
In this age of extreme activity and won-
derful developmént, it is a noteworthy
fact that many women have made their
own way in mercantile life, and success-
fully compete with men in many lines Of
business. Women, whether they labor in
the household or in the store, are all liable
to suffer from functional dcrangements
and the cares of maternity. For all troub-
les known I uder the category of “female
weaknesses," Dr. Piercc’s Favorite Pref
scription is a.tonic. and tried specific. It
relieves the greatest sufferers, and restores
the patientto vigorous licalth'and strength.
It. is the only medicine for women, sold by
druggists, under a positive guarantee, from
the manufacturers, that it will give satis-
faction in. evciy case, or money will be re-
funded. This guarautce has been printed
OII the bottle—wrapper and faithfully car-
ried out for many years.

Advice to Mothers.
—Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing S app, for
children teething, is the prescription of
one of the best female nurses and phy-
sicians in the United States, and has been
used for forty years with never-failing
success by millions of mothers for their
children. During the process of teething
its value is incalculablc. It relieves the
child from pain, cures c'yscutery and
diarliozia, griping in the bmveis and wind-
colic. By giving health to the child
it rests the mother. Price 25 cents a

Deafness Can’t be Cured
By local applications as they can not
reach the diseased portion of the car.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an
condition of the mucus lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result,.and unless
the inflammation be taken out an] this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition~of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrli)
that we cannot cure by taking Hall’s
Catarrh CIIre. Send for circular free.

a fact which attestslts rapid rise and firm hold on
the public favor. It almslo be clean and whole-
some, and resents all the legitimate news In
readable, spicy and terse shape. Its subscription
price Is sufficiently low to enable anybody to have
It without discarding any other of their favorite
journals, and It prospers without encroaching
upon the prosperity of any of Its excellent and
esteemed local contemporaries. as Is shown by
the fact that It enjoys and appreciates the hearty
good will of all—the GAZETTE, Hour, Sentinel,

INCREASE YOUR PENSION.
Many pensioners borne on the rolls are entitled
to a much higher rate of opensIon than they now
receive. In a great maj Ity of cases In which
pension was granted for dIsease, the pensioner is
I entitled to an Increase of rate, and In most cases
where It was granted for wounds or Injuries the
dlsabIllty Increases each year. As tIme passes the
disability-of all classes naturally Increases. Many
were at first rated too low. and It often occurs
that pensioners are unjustly or erroneously re-
duced by examlnlng, surgeons. A pensioner ls
entitled to Increase on a dIsabIlin not set forth In
his original declaration. The pensIon laws are
more liberal than formerly, and - better rating can
be had for many dls bllitIes. I make a special;
