Well, Hayes is inaugurated at last, and we have nothing to do but quietly take a back seat and there ponder upon the many incidents of the past, present and fature. Long ago e ‘shouted for McClellan, hooted for Seymour, threw our cap in the air for O’Connor, and now we have voted for Tilden, with the same result. Yet it makes one feel good to know he has done his duty. L We attended the play entitled, “Ten Nights in a Bar Room,” last Saturday evening. We think the participants in the play did their duties well enough, and the entertainment would have been pleasant, but for the “boysterous” noise kept up by some small hoys made large by thought, and some large boys imake small by act. Wedo not blame the boys, n'oxf do we advise them; but, parents, do you know that all such gatherings are made hideous by the. shouts, thumping and shrill whistlitgs of those you have in charge? Such things, it seems, might be remedied if the application is made at the right time and place. And to prove that this could be done, we need only cite you. to the churghes, where they have been taught,to’respect the reople. . . hd B o However cold, the ground hog is safe. i B

Last Sunday while in the midst of most rapturous enjoyment, having a big time as it were, thinking, you know, that our country was without government, our joys. were suddenly blasted by the arrival of a newspaper announcement that Hayes was inaugurated at 12 o’clock, and we again became law-abiding.

WAWAKA INKLINGS ™S ;

" Last Sunday morning early up went the stars and stripes at mast head. What for? Why, for one vote. Last night our cogitations were sadly disturbed by the booming of a little canon, brought here for the one-vote occasion, -Tennie Clafilin predicted that one of our presidential ‘candidates would die before the fourth day of March, but Miss Tennie 1s a false prophet. To-day is inauguration day, and the great-ordeal has already pass—i ed.” A plucky littie woman'in Wawaka said the gther day: “Well, if my new silk dress was made up, I would like to attend the inauguration party, and interview his royal highness and his wife (Mr. Hayes and wife) in re‘gard to those poor Mormon women, out in Utah, who arelivingin heathenish darkness, worshiping men who claim to be Apostles sent from God, and educating their sons and daughters in the faith of Brigham Young.” And these very people are breathing the free air of ouf American Republic. If one vote will make a President ‘and allow five hundred dollars for-re-ceptions, and one hundred dollars for dresses and outfits to match, with pearls and diamonds sparkling from Golconda’s shores, surely they ought to exert § good influence for the purifying of our nation in proportion to all this expgense. That is my logic. The question now is who is the President’s wife? not who is President? If we could once have aPresident’s wife like Mrs. VanCott, or like the Mis. Cady Stanton type, who would intercede with husband on thepresent issues of the day, such as temperance, morality, and a high-toned re-% gard for truth and honesty, then that soul-killing polygamy in Utah might be abolished. We guess that lady has been reading- Mrs. Stenhouse’s new book entitled “Tell it All, or Woman’s Life in Utah.” Well, we claim to belong to the Anglo Saxon heretics, and feel radical, too, for right, and since the one vote system is becoming so popular perhaps we may yet be sent as Missionary to Utah, or to the Fegee ‘lslands, and patiently await the event. - .

But about the smallest position we ever knew an individual to occupy was demonstrated I&; our town a few days'ago. The position alluded to was that of “pimp” for a “soiled dove.”. This man played his| vocation as unblushingly as if he co“h-' sidered it both honorable and lucrative. The ¢ouple tarried here but a short time and then departed southward, from whence they came. Had our town had the proper authority, this beautiful pair of fowls would no doubt have been caged.. , H Our advice is generally Zg_dod, but fis' not always received. 'We gave notice some time ago that one saloon inßome' was amply sufficient. It seems now that we are surely’ going to have one or two more. And now we are perfectly willing that they shall all starve and go to the d——l together. Moreover we will state® another fact to which we will defy contradiction: No saloon can live in this town, or ajny other town in the State, under the existing laws, if prosecuted for tueir violations of the law, for none of them follow the business without violating the law. Then, if the tanatical temperance people of our town will oply’ give the matter a small portion of their a:‘ttent‘ion our saloons will soon e numbered with the things of the past. : ‘

GCATARRH.

Twelve Years of Suffering.

Qentlemen:—About twelve years nﬁd' while traveling with Father Kem%’s oOld Folks Concert Troupe as a tenor singer, I took a severe cold and was laid up at Newark, N. J. ' This cold brought on a severe attack of J Catarrh, which I battled with every known remedy for four weeks without avail, and was finally obliged to give up a most desirable I‘posit,ion and return home nnable to sing a note. For three years sfrerwaWa unable tol sing at all.- The first attack™of Catarrh had left my nasal organs and throat so senmsitive that the slightest cold would bring{on a fresh attac& leaving me grostrat.ed. In this way I continu to suffer. The last attack, the severest 1 ever had, was terrible. I suffered the most excruciating pain in my head, was solhoarse as to be gcarcely able to spesak, and conghed incessantly. Itho’t I was going into quick consumption, and I firmly believe that had these symptoms continued without relief they would have rendered me an eas vietim. When in this distressing condition, { commenced the use of SAxrorp’s RapioaL Cuee For CATARRH, Very geluctantlg_. I confess, as I had tried all the adyertised remedies without benefit. The first dose of this wonderful medicine gave me the greatest relief. It is hardly possible for ene whose head aches, eyes ache, who can scarcely articnlate distinctly on account of the chokin accumulations in his throat, to realize how mucﬁ relief I obtained from the first application of SanrorD's Rapicar Core. Under its infinence, both internal and external, I rapidly recovered, and by an occasional use of the remedy since have been entirely free from Catarrh, for the first time in twelve years. Respectfully yours, - ; i) GEO, W. HOLBROOK. Warruanm, Mass., Jan, 8, 1876.

DR SCHENCK'’S STANDARD : REMEDIES.

‘The standard remedies for all diseases of the langs are ScHENOK’S PULMONIO SYRUP, SOHENOK'S Ses WEEp Tonio, and ScHENOK'S MANDRAKE Piuis, and if taken before the lungs are destroyed, a speedy cure is effected. ! ; To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treatment of pulmonary diseases. ! '

Tge Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in thie lungs; nature throws it off by an easy expectoration, for when the phlegm. or matter is ripe a slight cough will throw it off, the patient has rest and theé lungs begin to heal. To- enable. the Pulmonic Syrup to do this, Dr. Schenck’s Mandrake Pills and Shenck’s Sea Weed Tonic must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck’s Mandrake Pillsact on theliver,removing all obstructions,relax the gall bladder the bile starts freely and the liver is soon relieved. Schenck’s-Sea Weed Tonic isa gentie stimulant and alterative; the alkili of which it is composed mixes with the food and prevents souring. It assists the digestion by tening up the stomach to:a healthy condition, ‘so:that the food and the Palmonic Syrup will make good blood ; then the Jungs heal, and tbe patient will surely get well-if care i taken to prevent fresh cold. * Sl

All.:who wish to consult Dr. Schenck, either personally or by letter, can do so at his principal o}ﬂcq corner of Sixth & Arch Sts., Phil,, every Monday. Schenck’s medicines are sold by all druggists throughout the country. : : march

S CLEVELAND, d.; Dec. 26th, 1876, Gentlemen—l desire tomake! a statement regaﬁing the effect of your Curative upon me. I suffere intensely for two months with Sciatic Rheumatism, and naturally tried all the remedies I could hear of, the Curative among the others, but found no relief, and cameto the conclusion there was no cure for it. I was persuaded finally to give your Curativea thorough trial, by one who had been‘pured. 1 again commenced applying the Curative in'earnest, under his direction, and in a week’s time I was free from pain apd well. I firmly believe everycase of Rheu: matism will yield to Lawson’s Curative, but it must be used freely and persistently as you direct. i JAMES H, BROWN.

- The importance of the thorough use of the medicine cannot be too strongly impressed on the patients. , It will cure every time when used as we direct. See circulars around each bottle.
