How TO MAKE BEDFORD COUNTY PROS
rsaous.—We have often heard young men
and old complain of the poverty of Bedford
County and the general lack ol enterprise and
improvement. But. we have never beard
them assign a reason for the poverty of which
they complain. After . careful observation
and inquiry, we believe we have discovered
the chief cause of the ills complained of.
Young men get discontented at home and go
West. It matters not what business or em
ployment the tathers may be engaged in,
their sons being in the West, every dollar of
money that can be gathered from the business
of the farm or shop, is sent to the sons in the
West to help them along. What is more
natural than that the sons should be flourish
:ng and enterprising in their new homes as
long as they CM draw indefinitely on the
bank at the old home ? We have seen farms
worn down, the buildings dilapidated and the
fences decayed around many a once prosper
ous homestead, all, because everything the
farm produced was sent to the sons in the
West, and nothing kept at home to keep
things in repair, much less improve them.
The same stoty may be told with truth of al
most every other calling in our community.
Now the remedy must be patent to every one.
We grow rich, not by wbat we c-arn and spend,
but by what we earn and save. The true way
to make Bedford county rich, prosperous and
enterprising, is to keep our young men with
us, to expend our money here in improving
farms, erecting manufactures, opening mines
and building railroads. Our young men may
be as prosperous here as incite West, and if
they are supplied as liberally with funds they
will be equally enterprising. The prosperity
of the West is in great part due to the large
influx and natural activity of youDg men, and
the continuous supply of funds which they
draw from the old States. Any community
that continues to keep its young people and
its capital at home will soon become prosper
ous. Bedford county has sent enough ycung
men and capital to the far West to have lined
the banks of oar streams with mills, factories
and furnaces, to have put improved buildings
and fences on every farm, to have brought
every acre of arable land in the county to a
high and profitable degree of cultivation and
to have bailt railroads and turnpikes wher
ever the necessities of the people might have
required them. It is no use lamenting the
past. But we have it in our power to im
prove the future. Shall we not begin at once?
Let us not oniy encourage the young and en
terprising of our own community to stay with
us, but invite others from abroad by present
ing tbem profitable fields for the investment,
of capital and enterprise, whether in farming,
manufacturing or mercantile pursuits. The
work once begun, onr facilities will increase
from year to year. No better beginning can
be made than by every or.e investing what
he is able in the building of the railroad from
Mt. Dallas to Bridgeport. This road will do
more than any dozen other enterprises for
onr prosperity; it will make business and
bring in capital. This is but one of a thou
sand ways in which the good work mav be
begun. Once entered upon it will be the sure
road to prosperity.
OUGHT TO BE STOPPED. —We see a number
of limbs on the trees in the Union School
Campus have been broken by the scholars
or sortie other vendals. Dead, broken and
dangling limbs give an unsightly appearance
to the otherwise attractive school campus and
they should be carefully removed and meas
ures taken to prevent future mischief. It
should be made the special duty of the teach
ers to see that the trees, shrubbery, fences Ac.,
of the grounds are well cared for, and both
scholars and teachers should take pride in
preserving them. We hope the school board
will give the matter their prompt attention.
A small reward for the detection of the crim
inals and the vigorous enforcement 5f the
law. by fining and imprisoning the offenders
would soon put a stop to the mischief. The
mutilation and destruction of shade and or
namental trees on onr streets and the public
squares is becoming quite too common. The
prompt punishment of some of the offenders
would soon remedy the evil.

1 E&RIBLE ACCIDEST.—A terrible accident
occurred in the I.anagan ore bank, Franks
town township, last Thursday. Two miners,
named Silas Geesy and Wm. Young, were in
the act of ''charging a hole," when a spark
from the lamp of one of them accidently fell
in a keg containing some six or seven pounds
of powder, and exploded it. Young, who
was sitting immediately over the keg, was
thrown a considerable distance by the force
of the explosion and terribly burned and in
jured. At first is was thought he could not
snrvive his injuries, but we learn that he is
slowly recovering, though he will probably be
maimed and disfigured for life. Geesey, who
was standing immediately behind Yoang
when the explosion occurred, fortunately
escaped with a few slight bums and bruises.

"MORE than a year ar. a half ago a
daughter of Gale Heslop of Johnstown, aged
nearly ten years, while sitting at-her desk in
school with a shawl pin in her mouth, was
playfully struck on the back by a schoolmate.
The action caused the pin to elip into ber
throat, and sbe exclaimed that she bad
swallowed it. The pin was an ordinary
metaliic pin, with a round black head as large
as a pea—the whole measuring an inch and a
quarter in length. The child experienced no
serious inconvenience, but in a short time an
annoying congh commenced to afflict her dai
ly and almost hourly. She became somewhat
thinner in flesh, but could eat and play like
other children. Occasionally she had slight
hemorrhages. Last week she canghed up
the pin 1 Evidently it had lodged in some of
the passages near the upper part of the
chest."

FROM the Army Hospital ; the bloody bat
tle-field the mansion of the rich and the bum

from every nook and corner of the civilized
world, is pouring in the evidence of the as
tonishing effects of DRAKE'S PLANTATION BIT
TERS. Thousands opon thousands of letters
like the following may be seen at our office.

pital for fourteen months, speechless and
nearly dead. At Alton, 111., they gave me
a bottle of Plantation Bitters. Three bottles

THERE are many reasons why the Alisma
should be used instead of any other hair re
newer. It will do all the proprietors claim
for it; it is a larger bottle, nicely pnt up, and
can be used constantly without injuring or de
stroying the hair. Many preparations are
liked for a while, but eventually injure, if not
destroy the hair entirely. If yon would have
a luxuriant head of bair, use the Alisma.

THE Citers.—The report of the Agricultur
al Department for May and Jane is very
favorable. Wheat is doing its very best all
over the country. Rye, (which might rot,
for all we care, as it generally goes into the
still,] barley, and other grains are in fine
condition. The equine population (and their
owners) will rejoice at the good prospects of
plenty of oats. Corn is not so forward,
owing to the rains, but there is reason to ex
pect a fully average crop.
A SCHEME is on foot among the Democrats
to boy out Isaac Earnest, an independent
candidate for Sheriff in that party. They
played some sharp triers in order to euchre
him out of the nomination. Now they resort
to money. They say every fellow has his
price, and the great question is, what is the
least amount of money for which Earnest
will sell his principles?

Nature is the Great Physician.
This is now admitted, by the medical pro
fession as a fundamental principal of healing
science. It is wisely provided by the human
economy that whenever anything is wrong
in the physical system the natural forces of
the body are brought to bear to expel the
disease. The great aim, therefore, is to
strengthen the natural powers. This has
been kept in view by the skilful compounders
of HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS,
which operates to give fresh vitality to all
the organs of the body. JThe effect of this
medicine upon the stomach, the liver and the
kidneys, is prompt and decisive. The pa
tient, who is wise enough to quit, drugging
and try the bitters, soon feels as if he had
taken a new lease of life, and as he continues
the use of the article, he is overjoyed to find
the streams of health conrsing through bis
frame. It is prepared with great care, and
its component parts are entirely vegetable.
It is free from the objections so often urged
against preparations of the kind. As a MED
ICAL. AGENT it has no equal, while its pleas
ing flavor and healthful effects have made it
a general favorite. It is free from all prop
erties ralcnlated to impair the system, and
iLs operations are at once mild, soothine and
efficient. AH who have used HOSTETTEK's
STOMACH BITTERS attest its virtues and
comforts.
Even those who are in the enjoyment of
perfect health frequently have need to have
recourse to tonics as preventives of disease.
\\ e are never too well armed against the
assaults of "the ills that flesh is heir to." In
health or sickness this tonic cannot be 'taken
regularly without giving vitality and elas
ticity to the system.

BEDFORD, May 8, 1884. I take great pleasure

For tc = months previous to
Feb. zodi, last, I was suffering intensely with pain
so severe, that during all that time I had not one
night of comfortable sleep. I could not put mv
hands to my faee, could not comb my own hair,
nor feed myself: but after having the Pain Cure
applied once, I found relief enough to give me
comfortable sleep, and with itasteady use, I con
tinued to gat better, and now at tho end of ten
weeks from its first application, I have compara
tively free use of pjy hands, sleep well and n
attend to business. It has done me more good
than all other medicines I have ever used put
together, and I cheerfully give this certificate of
its value. ELI M. FISHER.
BEDFORD, April 14, 1889. Mr. W. W. Middle

matism, in my right shoulder, oi the evening of
the sth inst., so that I was unable to raise my
hand to my face. I got some of your Pain Cure
and applied it twice, and was entirely relieved.
I would recommend to every one who snffers with
Rheumatism to give it a trial and be cored.

£E CAREFUL
WHAT MEDICINES
YOU TAKE.
When you are exhausted by over-work of head
or hand, and feci the need of something invigor
ating, don't drink whiskey nor any intoxicating
thing, whether under the name of Ilittcrs or other
wise. Such articles give just as much strength
to your weary body and mind as the whip gives
to the jaded horse, and no more. Alcoholic stim
ulants are injurious to Nerve-health, and are
ALWAYS followed bv DEPRESSING REAC
TION.
DODD'RF NERVINE K INVIGORATOR
is a T O N I C and G E NT L E STIMULANT
which is NOT attended by REACTION. What
it gains for yon it maintains. When it refreshes
body or mind, it refreshes with natural strength
that ?omes to stay. We are not recommending
teetotalism in the interest of any faction; but long
and extended observation teaches us that he who
resorts to the bottle for rest or recuperation, will
find, as be keeps at it. that he is kindling a fire
in his bones which will consume like the flames
of perdition. Turn from it. Take a tonic that
will refresh and not destroy. Dodd's Nervine is
for sale by all Druggists. Price One Dollar. See
book of certificates that accompanies each bottle.
