A Cure For Paralysis.
Frank Cornelius, of Purcell, Ind. Ter.,
says: ‘I induced Mr, Pinsun, whose
wife had paralysis in the face, to buy a
* bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. To
their great surprise before the bottle bad
all been used she was a great deal better.
Her face had been drawn to one side;
but the Pain Balm relieved all pain and
soreness and the mouth assumed its nat-
ural shape.” It is also a certain cure for
rheumatism, lame back, sprains, swell-
ings and lameness. 50 cent bottles for
sale by Copland, the Druggist, Meyers-
dale, Pa.
BEATTY'S PIANOS AND ORGANS.
Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great Organ and
Piano , is building and shipp
more Organs and Pianos than ever. In 1870 Mr.
Beatty left home a penniless plow-boy, and by
his indomitable will he has worked his way up
£0 as to sell so far, nearly 100,000 of Beatty's Or-
gans and Pianos since 1870. Nothing seems to
dishearten him; obstacles laid in his way, that
wold have wrecked any ordinary man forever,
he turns to an advertisement and comes out of it
brighter than ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to be found in
all parts of the world. We are informed that
during the next ten years he intends to sell
200,000 more of his make, that means a business
of $20,000,000 if we average them at $100 each.
It is already the largest business of the kind in
existence—Send to Daniel F. Beatty, Washing-
ton, New Jersey, for Catalogue. :

good qualities of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. Having used it in my tamily
for the past eight years I can safely say
it has no equal for either colds or croup.”

Mrs. Harrison's Grea: Painting.
Tur ONLY Picture EvER PAINTED BY A PrEsi-
DENT's Wirs To Be Presgnren To THE PusLic.
It may not be known to everyone that Mrs, Ben-
jamin Harrison is one of the best of American
fluwer-painters. Since she has occupied her po-
sition of lady of the White House, however, her
public duties have largely prevented the exer-
cise of her artistic genius; but in that period she
has found leisure to paint one of the loveliest
representations of flower-life that ever came from
an artist's brush,—a magnificent group of orchids
on a porcelain panel. With that broad and kind-
ly spirit which has marked her career, she has
presented this single production of her scant lei-
sure to the public, and DexoresT's MAcAZINE has
the honor of being the medinm through which
this painting is offered to the mothers, wives and
danghters of America, to whom it is lovingly
dedicated. There is no taint of politics in it; it
is simply the tribute of a good woman's love for
the women of her nation, superbly expressed in
color and form, —the foremost woman ‘of the Re .
public cementing, by means of her art, her sister-
hood with all others of her sex in the land.
Mrs. Harrison’s painting has been reproduced
in the highest style of art, of the same size as the
original (11x15 inches), and is an absolutely per-
fect counterpart, in every particular, to the faint-
est tint of color, even to the peculiar texture of
porcelain, ,
One of these wonderful reproductions of “A
WHITE HOUSE ORCHID,” PAINTED BY THE
PRESIDENT'S WIFE, in the White House, from
an orchid grown in the White House, is to be pre-
sented FREE with each copy of DemMoRresr’s Fau-
LY Magazine for October, which can be pur-
chased of any of our local newsdealers; or send

REPUBLICAN MEETING AT SOMERSET.
Special to THE STAR.
The opening of the Republican cam-
paign, at Somerset, on Saturday night,
Sept. 17th, was a big success. It is sel-
dom that it is the privilege of the people
of a county numerically so small as Som-
erset to have in their midst so distin-
guished a speaker as Gov. McKinley, of
Ohio. Our court house, commodious as
it is, was literally packed with people,
representing all parties.
The applause that greeted the most
able exponent of American tariff showed
the admiration in which the author of
the McKinley Bill is held.
He began his matchless argument by
stating that the platforms of the respect-
ive parties represented fheir views and
pledges. He then referred to the promise
of the Democratic party to repeal the ten-
per cent. tax law on State banks, passed
in 1863, and spoke of the absurdity of
flooding the country with worthless mon-
ey-—money that as soon as it passed out
of the connty in which it was issued sank
away dawn below par value. He refer-
red to our want of credit under this sys-
tem and the fact that almost all business
was carried on by barter of goods for
goods, etc.
He then took up the subject of tariff.
The audience became mute and demon-
strated by turns. ‘We will not attempt
to portray the unanswerable arguments
used to sustain our present system of tar-
iff, its benefits the proofs of which are
the superiority of the American wage
earner.
Truly he is a great man and the Repub-
lican party a great party. Its mission is
the freedom, the equality, the prosperity
and the happiness of sixty-three millions
of Americans. Vote the Republican
ticket as an evidence of your intelligence.
J. D. Hicks, of Altoona, Andrey Stew-
art, of Fayette county, and -Gen Koontz
also addressed the meeting, following
Gov. McKinley.

To ScneoL DIRECTORS, SUPERINTEND
ENTS AND TEACHERS oF PuBLic ScHOOLS:
—The President of the United States and
the Governor of this commonwealth have
recommended the celebration, in a fitting
manner, of Friday, October 21st, of this
year, the four hundredth anniversary of
the discovery of America.
Appropriate exercises by the schools
should be made a prominent feature of
this celebration. This will not, there-
fore, be regarded as a legal school holiday.
The schools should open as usual. They
may afterward unite in any of or all the
exercises of the day. In addition’ to the
exercises by the pupils, addresses by
prominent citizens and choral and orches-
tral music will be appropriate.
A uniform program bas been announced
by the Executive Committee of the Na-
‘tional Educational Association, It will
contain 8 song, set to a well-known tun
celebration, by some of the
iéan writers. This program in a com
plete form will be sent to all
who address the Chairman of the Execn-
tive Committee, Francie Bellamy, of The
Youth's Companion, Boston, Mass., and | ones
will be published throughout the country.
TREE PLANTING.
A prominent feature of the day should
be the planting of Columbus trees,

sirable. Where it is possible, let groves
Columbian Anniversary. No fall Arbor
Day has compared in interest with this,
let it be fully improved. The schools of
Pittsburg have already arranged to plant

OTHER EXERCISES,
It is hoped that where there isa cele-
bration hy the general public it will be
for the afternoon and that the schools
may be recognized therein.
The educational value of the day can-
not be over estimated. ‘The memories re-
vived, the information gained, the ideas
presented, the achievements considered,
wiil all nnite 10 extend the mental hori-
zon, to stimulate thought and ennoble
character.
You are earnestly requested to so ob-
serve the day, that pupils of schools of
Pennsylvania may pay their homage to
the hero, and to the spirit of enterprise
commemorated. Let the day be observed
everywhere througliout the state in such
a spirit as to impress upon the minds of
the children of this commonwealth, les-
sons of patriotism and loyalty, love of
home and country that will insure to fu-
ture generations the privileges and bless-
ings which we now enjoy and ‘awaken
gratitude to God and a deep and lasting
reverence for America and American in-
stitutions.
D. J. WALLER, Jr,
Superintendent of Public Instruction.
A rerparkable story comes from Ohio-
pyle regarding General Braddock’s defeat
and death. David Williams, an old sol:
dier, who lives about a mile from there.
has interesting reminiscences of Brad-
dock’s defeat, which he obtained from
Thomas Fawcett, a soldier who was in
that fight. Fawcett, lived in that neigh-
borhood for years before he aied and his
grave is on a little hill about a mile south
of the falls. Fawcett told Williams that
he himself shot Braddock; that when the
Indian attack took place and the Ameri-
can riflemen took to cover to fight the
Indiads in frontier style, Braddock was
furious, and with his sword cut down one
of Fuwcett's friends who got behind a
tree. Fawcett said that hie was so infu-
riated that be at once fired on Braddock,
mortally wounding him.
