Just why some horse owners persist
in punishing their dumb animals by
reining them up so that their heads
point out like finger boards and their
eyes stand up to be blinded by the sun,
is beyond comprehension. How can a
horse travel and the clods and
holes and stones with its gaze forced
towards the sky, how obey a driver
when made half crazy from the severity
of a cutt ing bit? What have some peo-

An Old Document.
While cleaning up his office a short
time ago, Register and Recorder Ed-
gar R. llorne, of Bedford, discovered a
very old document that attracted con-
siderable attention. It is an immense
sheet of heavy linen paper and was ex-
ecuted at Canterbury, England, March
30, 1791, and filed May 14,1796. It is
beautifully penned in old English, and
is headed, “Certificate from the Arch

mate of all England and Metroplitan of

An editor who died of starvation was

“May I look at the other place before

“Certainly,” said the angel.
So they went below ard skirmished
around, taking in the sights. The an-

around Hades to hunt him up. He
found him sitting by a furnace, fanning
himself and gazing with rapture upon
a lot of people who were in the fire.
There was a sign on the furnace which

Postaze Stain: in Book Form.
Postmaster-General Smith and Third
Assistant Postmaster-General Madden
have been perfecting a plan to sell
postage stamps in book form. It is
proposed to offer for sale two-cent
stamps in books of twelve stamps at a
cost of 25 cents each. The books will
be of a size convenient to slip into the
with wax paper between
and with the division of
mail matters into classes, the rates of
postage and other kindred information
printed on the outside. The one cent
charged for the binding and wax paper
will net the Government a profit of $6
for each 1,060 books soid. 1fone eighth
of the two-cent stamps used are sold in
such books, the net profit to the De-
partment would be not less than $230,-
000 annually.

The New York World,
Thrice-a-Week Edition.
ALMOST A DAILY—AT THE PRICE
OF A BeeReyY yY
The most widely crentnt “weekl
newspaper in America is the Thrice-a-
Week edition of The New Yerk World,
and with the Presidential campaign
now at hand you cannot do without it.
Here are some of the reasons why it is
easily the leader in dollar a year jour-
nalism. :
It is issued every other day, and is to
all purposes a daily.
Every week each subscriber receives
18 pages, and often during the “busy”
season pages each week.
The price is onl; 00 per year.
It is virtually a daily at tlie price of
a weekly.
Its news covers every known part of
the world. No weekly newspaper could
stand alone and furnish such service.
The Thrice-a-Week World has at its
disposal all of the resources of the
greatest newspaper ii: existence—the
wonder of modern journalism—“Amer-
ica’s Greatest. Newspaper,” as it has
been justly termed—The New York
World.
Its political news is absolutely im-
partial. This fact will be of especial
value in the Presidential campaign
coming on.
The best of current
in its columns.
These are only some of the reasons;
there are others. Read it and see them
all.
We offer this unequaled Joos per
and THE SOMERSET COUNTY STAR
together, one year for $1.90.
The regular subscription price of the
two papers is $2.50. >
