John Murphy, of Pittsburg, accom panied by his wife, son and daughter, where guests of his brother, Michaei Murphy and family last Monday and Tuesday. Mr. Murphy is general manager of Pittsburg Traction Com pany and President of Allegany Light Company; is a busy man and one of the most active men in Allegany county, Stability In Trade. A new task lias been undertaken by the corporations, which, if suc cessful, should entitle them to con siderable credit. In times past the moment trado activity slackened the imperative needs of the factor ies impelled them to cut prices in order to get such business as was going, says the Pittsburg Times. When prices commenced to drop buyers held back from the market least they should load up with goods while competitors profitted later by still lower prices. This process always demoralized the market and business, and the whole country suffered. Now the steel and iron makers are curtail ing production so that the market may be assured of no deluge ol goods at unprofitable figures. The result is that already buyers are coming to the mill in greater num bers than before the restriction was decided on. This gives color to the prospect of a steady market, even if it should not see the same volume of trade, and steadiness is the one thing de sired. In Bteel products prices were held down pretty firmly in the flush period, except in these rare cases of hurry orders, and if the prices can be kept now from going down very far, business will be encouraged. A restricted vol ume of business on safe lines of cost and profit is infinitely better than a greater volume on a fluct uating basis. The steady move ment disarranges nothing. The fluctuation upsets everything from the labor cost of product to the manufacturer's profit or loss, the merchant's gains, and the confi dence of the buyer. The steel and iron trade has not yet suffered a serious decline, nor is such a pros pect likely, if the trade has some assurance that prices are not to be cut to a ruinous base. Cause of Lockjaw. Lockjaw, or tenanus, is caused by a bacillus or germ which exists plentifully in Btreet dirt. It is inactive so long as exposed to the air, but when carried be neath the skin as in the wounds caused by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and when the air is excluded the germ is roused to activity and produces the most virulent poison known. These germs may be destroyed and all danger of lock jaw avoided by applying Chamberlain's Pain Balm freely as soon as the injury is received. Pain Balm is an antiseptic and causes cuts, brusies and like injuries to heal without maturation and in one third the time required by the usual treatment. It is for sale by L. Taggart.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. No one who is acquainted with its good qualities can be surprised at the great popularity of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It not only cures cold« and grip effectually and permanently, but pre vents these diseases from resulting in pheumonia. It is also a certain cure for croupe. Whooping cough is not danger ous when this remedy is given. It con tains no opium or other harmful substance and may be given as confidently to a baby as to an adult. It is also pleasant to take. When all of these facts are taken into consideration it is not surpris ing that people in foreign lands, as well as at home, esteem this remedy very highly and very few are willing to take any other after having once used it.

Here it is: The cheapest thing there is in the way of a good-looking job—say nothing about its being good—is Devoe; the regular thing is Devoe, The reason is; Devoe goes further than anything else. Lead and oil is good looking; don't go so far and costs more. The other paints are more or less short in one way or auother, don't go so far and costs more than Devoe. Devoe costs least of all; you don't mind its lasting longer, do you? We can't help it; a paint that goes further lasts longer; we cau't help it. Yours truly, F. W. DEVOE & Co. P. S. Murry & Coppersmith sell our paint. First Fork. Editor Press: Wm. Bowers, of Costello, was visiting his brother Edward at this place on Saturday.

Better conditions exist for good work in the schools than last year. Severs] large schocls have been divided, though four or five are yet over-crowded. This year's enroll, ment is the largest in the history of the school during the first month. More room will have to be provided if this rate of increase is maintained.
