" I tell you par<l," said old Jimmy
Gannon, a guide, " the west has lost its
romance. Only a little while ago, it
seems to me, where ouce there was
nothing but the whoop of the Indian
and the soug of the six-shooter, now
there are railroads and churches, and
commercia 1 men, and high schools, and
three-card monte men, and lecturers,
aud daily newspapers, and, every little
while, a natural death. Why, withiu
two mouths, if the blasted papers tell
the truth, several men have died in

wait for lingering disease to snuff us

" So A. got away with $100,000 ?"
said a reporter to the president of the

cash ?" No sir," retorted the president;
" the villain got away with my daugh

Christiana, Sept. 25.—Things an*
going on about aa usual. Some of our
g(*od people are not a little annoyed by
the report that tuod (logs are about.—
One dav last week Mr. Seott killed a
dog, which wjim supposed to bo rabid,
though it ie to be hoped it did not bite
any other dogs before it was shot down.
I am told mat week before last an A 1*
derney cow, belonging
Appleby, was taken wl
and became furiously wicked before she
was killed. I understand that Mr. A.
had lately been offered $100 for the cow,
so it. is quite a loss to him. The tramp*
are not quite so numerous, but now and
then one stops to ask for food. The far
mers are busy now cutting off corn and
getting the ground in order for the gold
en grain. We have quite a number ol
very independent farmers near here,
among them Mr. Win. McBride is om
of the first. Your correspondent was
out to bis place to-day. I saw some of
the largest corn that ever grew ou
stalks. He also has tine cattle and ev
erything of the first order. There is a
fair sample of farms and tanners in
neighborhood.

the post master, for they at small offices
get but small pay, auyhow. The con
gregations at the M. K. church are im
proving. The pastor on last Sabbath
morning threw some (class-meeting)
dynamite in among his people, and it
exploded, but nobody fatally wounded.
I understand that Mr. A. J. Williams
expect
brick
to the M. E. church. This old board
walk is dangerous,as some of the boards
are broken and several persons have been
hurt badly on it. Indeed, it is a dis
grace to the place. Come,Mr. Williams,
come without delay, and tear up the old
boards and put down a brick walk, and
all men and womeu, young aud old,
will ever remember you with grateful
hearts. The frosts have already tinged
the abundant vegetation, aud it is hoped
that heavy frosts will come early so as
to keep down the malaria. The doctors
have been very busy, but not many
people have died in this neighborhood

TO THE PUBLIC:
Especially of the states of Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware.
1
We have the pleasure to announce that our arrangements for the business of the
present season, long considered and most carefully made, are now complete, and we
respectfully invite the people from far and near to call on us, and inspect our
enlarged facilities for doing business and the superb Stock we are prepared to
exhibit In every department.
The increase in our business, which has been large and constant for years, has
been greater than ever during the past twelve months, and we have, therefore, felt
justified in making extraordinary and unprecedented preparations for the coming
season, not only in the magnitude of the stock, but in the facilities for its distribution,
as well as arrangements for the most prompt and careful service of our patrons in
every way.
During the Summer we have added another building on Eighth Street to our store
rooms, and this alteration, just completed, while it adds considerably, though not
largely to our space, enables us to make certain changes in the disposition of stocks,
which economizes room and in other ways adds largely to the comfort and convenience
of our patrons.
All our buildings have been renovated and freshened during the Summer, and
now, with the above alterations completed and our arrangements consummated, in
cluding the receipt of the most magnificent stock it has ever been our prit ilege to
gather, we invite the public to call and inspect the buildings and examine the stock,
which in the aggregate and detail will, we believe, compare favorably with any that has
ever been placed on sale under one roof in America. This huge stock, approximating
TWO MILLIONS OF DOLLARS in value in DRY GOODS ALONE, has been most care
fully selected by a large corps of skilful buyers in the best markets of the world, and It
is needless to add has been purchased EXCLUSIVELY FOR CAt H. Every advantage
that experience, skill and abundant cap tal can secure has. we t elieve, been secured
for our patrons this season, and coupled with these advantages is a determination to
serve them in such a way as to receive their constant and abiding pr.tronage.
It is our aim, as it is the aim of all business men, to make money, and yet net so
much to nutke money as to do business in the best way; to be successful in the highest
sense; to render the most efficient service to the largest number; to adhere rigidly to
and to lead in our own special business: to do the largest and the best and the most
generously conducted retail dry goods business in the United States; to lay the
foundation of that business broad and deep and sure,
the city of homes, with its million of population, surrounded by a country
unsurpassed, if equalled anywhere for fertility and cultivation, and populated by other
millions of thrifty and intelligent people, here we conceive is the place to build up
such a business—a business that truly serves the people and with every increase in
Its size and facilities only more widely and efficiently renders tha*- service to a greater
number.
i
Here, in * hiladelphia,
We believe no large and permanent success can be achieved on any other basis
than that we have indicated, of rendering better service than can be had elsewhere; of
deserving success by reason of rendering this service faithfully; of making it a cardinal
principle to give at least as much as is received; to ensure and to be satisfied with
nothing less than a mutuality of benefit between the house and its great constituency
the country over. This is our aim and purpose. We ask the people to join with us in
establishing such a business, and we ask for patronage on no other grounds.
Respectfully submitting our claims to a discerning public, we hereby extend a gen
eral invitation to call on us from this date, to view the buildings and inspect the
business methods of 1883.
