COMFORTING WORDS.
Many a McConnellsburg Household will
Find Them So.
To have the pains and aches of
a bad back removed to be en
tirely free from annoying, dan
gerous -urinary disorders, is
enough to make any kidney suf
ferer grateful. The following
advice of one who has suffered
will prove comforting words to
hundreds of McConnellsburg
readers.
F. M. Taylor, civil engineer,
Water Street, McConnellsburg,
says: "I suffered from severe
pains in my back and loins. I
had weak kidneys, the action be
ing irregular. Duan's Kidney
Pills gave me great relief. I al
ways take them with me when I
go out of town, because if I
catch cold, I get a slight attack
of the trouble. When this oc
curs, 1 can always depend on
Doan's Kidney Pills for relief."
Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask tor a Sidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills the
same that Mr. Taylor had.

SALUVIA
Ouch! How it bites! The cold!
Last Sunday the temperature
dropped from 40 to zero at 6 a. m.
Willis, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Brad Mason, was seriously ill
with grippe on Monday. He was
recovering from a former attack,
went out too soon, and had a re
lapse. Joseph Sipes, one of our
aged citizens, also had a severe
attack. We hope for their speedy
recovery.
Revival services opened last
Sunday night in Asbury M. E.
church; but since the pastor and
family, and many other near by
families, are suffering from
rippe, announcements were not
:iveu out for a longer time f head
.ban Monday night.
Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Sipes
spent last Thursday visiting J.
A. Stewart and family.
Mrs. Wm. Schooley and family
and Mrs.-. James Harr, visited
Charles W. Schooley and family
last Friday.
Hex Sipes and Harry and Nor
man Scnooley have killed five
foxes so far this winter.
Ross Mellott, of Sipes Mill, re
cently drove up in his auto an i
dehorned E. R. Hendersnot and
L (J. Mann's cattle.
Last week, Chester Ilann re
moved his family to Coles Sum
mit where he has secured em
ployment on the E B. T. R R.
Benjtmiu Deshong is planning
to start two sawmills in the near
future. One of his saws was
badly damaged recently when it
struck a large bed screw imbed
in the log.
Those who have recently trav
eled over this section of the Lin
coln Highway will vouch for our
statement that it is about ready
for a resurface. The road is a
sheet of mud, cut deeply by ruts,
and when frozen, is, in some
places, dangerous to drive over,
especially on west side of Side
lirg Hill where the sand has
turned to mortar. There is no
vse in talking talking, to mane
this road an honorable memorial
to the immortal Lincoln. It
would seem that nothing short of
crushed limestone, bound by as
phalt or cement, will stand the
wear. The State's big motor
trucks should be able to trans
port the necessary material in a
short time.
Notice.
All persons indebted to the as
signed estate of H. L. Gish, Mer
cersburg, Pa. are requested to
make payment on or before Jan.
29, 1916, or I will be at liberty to
place the accounts for collection.
For yonr convenience I will beat

TAKE INTEREST IN SKELETON
Remalni Found In England, Remark'
able for Large 8lze of Head, Have
Aroused Scientist!.
Professor Keith of the British
lloyal College of Surgeons luw been
investigating the history of a skele
ton dating from about 2,000 B. C,
which was recently found during ex
cavationB by J. Reid Moir at the base
of the Eed Crag at Thorington hall,
Wherstead, near Ipswich. It is the
skeleton of a twelve-year-old boy. His
stature must have been much the
same as the average height of a mod
ern boy of the same age, but the large
size of the head is remarkable. Close
to the skeleton was a good vessel for
the use of the boy on his arrival in
the next world. The vessel is of a
type which was only made in the late
neolithic and early bronze periods.
It is decorated all round with marks
pitjeoed by thumb nails, a method of
decoration which is very ancient.
Frofessor Keith aid :
"We are trying to get hold of the
people of every period, going as far
back as we can. We are trying to
follow the English people right
back, beginning with the Roman
period. We shall then be able to de
scribe the people who lived in any
period and the changes that came
over them. So far there has beep
very little change."
COST COUNTRY LARGE SUM
Late 8hih of Persia Had Rare Bauble
6et With Precious Stone!
Worth $500,000.
Among the royal treasures of Per
sia is a pipe- set with diamonds,
rubies and emeralds to the value, it
is estimated, of no less than $500,
000. This pipe was made for the
late shah and is said to be even more
valuable than his famous sword.
In the mntter of swords, rt is said
that the gnekwar of Bnroda, who on
the occasion of the coronation of
George V in India added to his fame
by snnliliing the monarch, possesses
the most precious hlado in existence.
Its hilt and belt are incrusted witb
diamonds, rubies, sapphires and em
eralds, and its value has been put at
$1,000,000.
There are many costly swords in
the treasure rooms of eastern and
European rulers, notably those of the
czar of Russia, the sultan of Turkey
and the king of Sinin, but the sword
of the packwar outshines them all.
The most valuable sword of Europe
is that presented by the Egyptians to
Lord Wolseloy. The hilt re set with
brilliants and the whole saber is es
timated to be worth $10,000.
TRADE IN NEW GUINEA.
There is no country in West Af
rica which is more accessible and
whose government, perhaps, is more
benevolently inclined toward British
enterprise than is the government of
Portuguese Guinea. Such is the
opinion expressed by his majesty'i
consul general at Dakar.
Its area is 23,000 square miles,
and, for its size, he states, the col
ony is probably the richest in west
Africa. None of the foreign firmi
in the colony seem to be able to com
pete with foreign cotton goods, a con
siderable quantity of which are an
nually exported from Manchester.
These goods are popular among ths
natives and are becoming more so.
ALWAYS MOPINO.
"My wife is always afraid of no'
getting her money's worth."
"How now?"
"Look at her moping over that
telephone book. She complains that
there are hundreds of those numbers
which she'll probably never use."
NEARLY AS BAD.
Skids Is he one of those fellows
who are always tickled to death to
get something for nothing?
Skittles Well, not exactly ; but he
always acts as if he was a philanthro
pist when he refuses a transfer.

SOLDIERS LOST TO AUSTRIA
Indignant Females Put 8pokee In
Plana of Reservists Who Would
Plght for Native Land.
Master Cupid shot his arrow into
the lines of the homeward-bound
Austrians in New York city and
John Rzesnik and Romald Ulosin
sky will be temporarily deprived of
the delight of aiding their country.
Both Rzesnik and Ulosinsky were
recently named as defendants in
breach of promise suits in which
Miss Catherine Kobrynowicz of C43
East Eleventh street, demanded $10,
000 damages from Rzesnik, and Miss
Veronika Makowska asked $10,000
of Ulosinsky. The young women,
hearing their erstwhile admirers were
about to sail for Austria to join the
army, obtained orders of arrest.
"You shall not go to war until you
have married me," Miss Kobrynowici
told Rzesnik after he had been ar
rested. "I'd rather go to war and get shot
than marry you," retorted Rzesnik.
Miss Makowska was also at the
sheriff's office when Ulosinsky was
brought in, and Ulosinsky told her
if she would let him go to war he
would marry her when he returned.
"No, sir," shouted the young wom
an. "If you won't marry me now,
I'll let you go to jail and stay there."
Neither man could furnish the re
quired $500 bail and they were
locked up in Ludlow Btreet jail.
SPOILED HIS FLOWERS.
"Confound the luck!" fumed old
Mr. Wasserby.
"What's the matter, dear?" asked
Mrs. Wasserby.
"When young Tompkins came in
here to ufk for Grace's hand I threw
him out of the window and he full
into my favorite bed of tulips."

Give the
Children
their :
Chance
Can't expect the children to stand high in their classes
unless they get their lessons done properly. And they
can't do night study without proper light.
The best light to study by is that which beams from a
Rayo Lamp filled with slow-burning Atlantic Rayolight
Oil. It gleams soft, white and mellow doesn't flicker.
It's a wonderful light for studying. Won't strain the
children's eyes and so they study the better. And they
learn the quicker.
And you'll sew with less effort, and father will enjoy his
paper the more if you keep the house generously lighted
with Rayo Lamps.
Rayo Lamps are handsome add to the appearance of
any room. They're easily cleaned and last a lifetime.
Your dealer can show you a full assortment of Rayo
Lamps priced from $1.50 up. But to get the best light
from a Rayo Lamp, you should burn
ATLANTIC
S
That's the kerosene that neither smokes nor smells, that burns
brightly and yields a ejri-nt heat, but always nt a low cost; use it
in every lamp in the house, in your heaters and in your oil stoves.
Atlnntic Rayolight Oil is the one kerosene you can ask for by name
that never varies in quality. And so it is especially desirable for
domestic purposes for polishing furniture, for keeping away
moths, for removinc rust and the many other uses hundreds of
housewives tell us they have found for it.
