A perfect Sarsaparilla is just such a medicine; a Sarsaparilla that contains the choicest and most valuable in gredients; a Sarsaparilla accurately and carefully made, and one that experience has shown is perfect in every way.

Similar communications, which havo al ready been inado public, wero submitted from tho cltv treaailrer. comntrollir nnil clerk. Accompanying tho treasurer's claim j was a showing of tho gratifying amount of ! personal taxes gathered In by tho collectors provisionally employed. Hnucall advocated granting tho omclnls sums sufficient to run their departments on a businesslike basis. IIo held that such ex penditures would bo In tho furtherance of final economy. Other councllmen resented tho action of their predecessors in fixing the different allowances, an act nnturally per taining to tho new incumbents, and wero Inclined to endorse Ilascall's view. A reso lution rearranging the allotment will be In troduced at tho regular meeting tomorrow night. J. W. Klneald proposed a plnn for pla carding the city streets.

Ono nchemo which tho engineering department has advanced Is to construct a sower for somo dlstnnco along tho valley emptying Into disposal works. Hero It Is proposed to rcmovo all solid matter allowing the liquid to flow Into tho I'applo. Tho principal problem Is that of cct, tho sum of $30,000 being rather moro than tho community could comfortnbly raise by a specinl tax. No oflort was mado to come to a deflnito agreement owing to tho small representation present. i1 J. I. Carson, Prothonotary.

For thirty years I have been the confidential adviser of thou ands of sufferers in all parts of the world.

I have made a life study of electro therapeutic appliances and have restored over .1 hundred thou sand men and women to physical strength and vigor with my world renowned Dr, SANDEN ELECTRIC BELT The use of Galvanic Electricity, ', COPYRIGHTED as applied under my personal di rection, has become universal for the cure ot nerve, glandular, or ganic weaknesses, rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, varicocele, etc. Nature demands a certain sup ply of natural Electricity, and if this supply is reduced by excesses, overwork, exposure, etc., weak ness and debility are the results. To repair this weakness, nature must be paid. I pay nature by returning to her storehouse that which has been wasted and dis sipatedthis is electricity which is the very essence of life itself. Electric Suspensory for Men; with all Belts. Why should suffering ones hesitate to try this cure by natural means ? a cure based on nature's laws.

U,JS:.-X&T ! 4 -AMUSEMENTS... j "The Mttle .Milliliter" It must bo counted n fortunate circum stance that a novelist possessing so thorough a knowledge of human naturo, as it is ex hlblted In Scotland, and bo keen an Insight Into tho unconscious humor ot tho bounx. Scot upon his nntlvo heath as J. M. Darrlo has "evinced In his works of fiction, should also bo able to uso effectively tho dramatic medium for telling a story. It happens but rarely that tho succe&nful novelist can master tho limitations of tho stage, where whola pages of his tnlo must often be conprcssed into a fow sentences, and, as a result, most writers of fiction nro obliged to entrust to other hands tho transforming of their novels Into tho dramatic form. Mr. Darrle, how over, ha9 succeeded whero so many others hnvo failed, and so quick has bo been to perceivo the opportunities nnd advantages of tho dramatic form of expression that ho hJ not hesitated to depart radically from ths original story of "Tho Llttlo Minister" whonever it seomed either necefsary or ad visable. Ab a rfnult of his perspicacity tho play la a charming success; It is even moro it Is a delightful Idyl, n comedy of Scdtsli village life with the hallmark of genius and truth indelibly stamped upon It. Its humor In as unconscious and nalvo as that ot a child, and without a traco of bigotry or satlro In it. It is truo that Harrle's people nro often narrow-minded, but, as drawn by his loving hand, wo like them nono tho less, In truth, many of tholr humorously absurd traits of character havo their origin In their constrlctod Ideas, which nro never allowed to nbscuro their human quality. Mr. Darrlo in equally successful In de pleting tho characters of his women and men. The austere ciders of tho kirk, clad In habiliments of sober black, tho patient, hard-working, Ood-fearlng young mlnlstor, tho reclaimed vlllago drunkard in whom a touch of tho old Adnm still lingers, tho bluff, complacent lord of tho manor nnd tho English captain all thoso nro well limned characters and truly differentiated. Hut they aro not ono whit moro so thnn tho roguish and warm-hearted Dabble, or dear, garrulous old Nannlo, with her harmless vanities, or tho prim servant of tho mnnse. Dut tho play Is moro than a delineation of character. It is a gllmpso Into tho real llfo of Thrums. Its action la spirited, Its dia logue bright and crisp, nnd Its atmosphere genuine. Tho broad dialect of tho natlvo has been softened and Anglicized somewhnt to mako it Intelligible to American ears, but enough Is retained to give it an nlr of verity. Dut Mr. Darrle's genius would have counted for but llttlo had ho been unablo to find the right kind of peoplo to interpret bis play; and ho Is to bo congratulated that fate, or providence, brought him In contact with Miss Maudo Adams. She is the Ideal Dabble, roguish, winsome, graceful and piquant, a child of nature unfettered by the conventionalities of what wo are pleased to term society. Tho stern, forbidding aspect of the men nnd women among whom she moves makes u rare background for lior win some, sunny naturo, and she shines amid Its austerity llko a bright star through tho rifts of an angry storm-cloud. Miss Adams Is much moro than satisfactory as Dabble she Is n delight and a triumph.
