Among other such ( features was the maximum and minimum clause and so efficacious was this new feature of our tariff law and so diplomatic has been our President and Department that it is quite likethat the maximum rates will not be ' applied to a single country. More than 1 one hundred proclamations have been signed by President Taft granting the < minimum rates to various countries, 1 including all tbe important commercial nations. 1 I THE "PURE FOOD LAW" IS designed by tbe Government to protect I , public from injurious ingredients in i both foods and drugs. It is beneficial both to the public and to the conscien- E tious manufacturer. Ely's Cream a successful remedy for cold in | the bead, nasal catarrh, hay fever, etc., containing no injurious drugs, meets £ fuliy the requirements of the new law, and that fact is prominently 1 stated on every package. It con- c tains none of the injurious drugs which are required by the law to be ; mentioned on the laiel. Hence you 1 can use it safely. f This result is a distinct victory for 1 and a vindication of the wisdom of tbe Republican leaders who framed the \ tariff bill and has secured for this t country the best possible rates for our exports into foreign countries and at f the same time has not in a eignle in- t stancg brought on a commercial war \ with any. of those countries. It make c stronger than ever the statement made by President Taft and repeated by c other Republican leaders, that the i present tariff bill is the best law we t had. For ^not only has the new e been eminently successful, c tbe two greatest reasons r"->r a pro- ' tective tariff, namely revinti" and I c protection have both come to us in sur- 1 prising degrees. e V t People who "take notice" must have observed a growing sentiment in this v countrv in favor of using only put-up «, and medicines of kuown composition.

Reiiy has secured the agency for laun-ry 0f the Troy Hand Laundry f wi" every Wednesday to be returned on Saturday. As for the revenue it tan be judged how successful tbe new law has been by the returns up to yesterday. A year ago at this tiuie the receipts trom all sources for the nine months ending ( March 31, were about $430,000,000, while this year they are about $480,000.000, showing an increase of about $50,000,000. A year ago the deficit • was over $70,000,000, while at present ' il '• considerably under $20,000,000, | and there aeema to be no doubt what- ' ever that it will be wiped out al- ; together by the end of tbe fiaoal year, j and that, too, without considering the receipts from the corporation tsv, : which it estimated will .be from $25,J 0O0.000 to $30,000,000. In fact as.a revenue measure there has probably . never been a tariff law on our statute books that has adjusted itself ao readily and ao perfectly 10 our expenditures. It will be admitted that a large surplus is never desirable, and of course we should not have a deficit, but to have the expenditures and receipts run along about together is just the desirable attainment that should be reached in a tariff law, and ia the result under tne law which we are now operating.— Camden Post-Telegram. 6KEEN CREEK.

Our people were very sorry to hear of Frank Bate, of Fishing Creek, loshis barn and stock on Monday by fire. We sympathize with them. Mrs. Joseph James and son Belmar, who have been with Captain James in New tork the past ten days on board of Schooner Lotta Kuasel, came on the vessel the Captain anchored along shore Saturday morning and Mrs. Herbert James and Miss Alina and-. James went aboard and sailed with the Captain for Chester thence to where he will load. Mra. Lizzie Foster spent two days last week at her home here returning Goshen on Thursday. Having received three chain letters n five days with a prayer to be copied nine time we feel like saying they are nuisance. We think if tbe time that takes to write the nine letters were spent in prayer to our heavenly father and the money it takes to buy the and stamps used for some good it would do far more good besides conferring a favor on poetoffice employees. We believe there has been received in our family abcut ten letwbich if tbey bad been copied times would reach near the 100 mark. What a waste of time !
