Valuable Lives and Considerable
Money Saved.
Few of the annoyances of our life are more
serious in character than those that follow
in the train of Catarrh of the nose and
throat. By a strange fatality, we fail to
realize that the chronic affection of the
bronchial mucous membrane is so often the
precursor of pulmonary phthisis, or con-
sumption, and that energetic means are
to arrest its onslaughts. We
waste our money and imperil our lives by
amusing ourselves with cough drops and
sickly syrups. A radical cure can be effect-
ed by using the American Catarrh Cure,the
invention of Dr. Washington B. Jones, No.

liver it to any address upon receipt of $1.00.

A slight mistake occurred in the
make-up of our paper, last week. In
publishing a list ‘of the weddings, our
paragraph of congratulations was in-

it appear that Tne Star excluded one

Ntions. This, however, was not the

The Somerset Herald informs the
public that Sheriff Saylor served a
sumptuous Christmas dinner to the in-
mates of the county jail. Wonder if
the Sheriff didn’t also manage to get a
rich hand-out to Milt Sheets, the es-
caped murderer, and Joe Polinkosh,the
desperate Windber criminal that was
allowed to deliberately walk out of
the court room and make his escape |
while being tried for murder? “Slick
Jim” is much admired by criminals,
but that is no benefit -to the cause of
justice.
People who hitch their horses on our
streets where the cold winds blow past
them should show enough human feel-
ing to see that they have a blanket
thrown over them. And as an exchange
remarks, it is difficult to imagine how
a man can have a faithful horse to suf-
fer the cold, while in the buggy are
blankets enough to keep it perfectly
comfortable, the only effort that is re-
quired being to place the blankets
upon the horse. Probably if it had not
been for the horse you would not have
had the money to purchase the blank-
ets.
The most soothing, healing and anti-
septic application ever devised is De-
under its 5 présent management is soted
for its vulgarity, blackguardism and
general incompetency, and its tone
plainly indicates that it is edited by a
brainless nonenity that is a disgrace to
the profession. It is simply a case
where a jackass has in some way got-
ten out of his proper element and wan-
dered into the editorial sanctum of a
paper in a live and hustling town.
How long the people of Windber will
tolerate the journalistic nondescript of
the Era to disgrace the newspaper pro-
fession in their town remains to be
seen.
The Paris (Ky.) Beacon tells of a
curiosity that went through the post-
office of that city. It was in the shape
of a postal card, to one side of which
was attached a ten-dollar bill by a
knot of ribbon. On the reverse side
was the address of the person to whom
it was being sent. A more striking ex-
ample of faith in the integrity of Uncle
Sam’s mail employes is seldom witness-
ed. The bill was mailed in Louisville,
Ky., and was delivered safely to the
party to whom it was addressed in
Paris.
Pepsin preparations often fail to re-
lieve indigestion because they can di-
gest only albuminous foods. There is
one preparation that digests all classes
of food, and that is Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure. it cures the worst cases of indi-
gestion and gives instant relief, for it
digests what you eat. Miller & Shaler.
A swindle is reported from various
parts of the country of which farmers
will do well to beware. The agents
offer a churn which they claim will
largely increase the yield of butter
from any quantity of milk and they
offer to prove this assertion. Chemi-
cals, it appears, are slipped into the
milk and cream when the purchaser’s
back is turned, and the butter comes
more quickly and in greater volume
than it usually does on the premises
invaded. Of course the resultant mass
is not pure butter, but the agent col-
lects his money and departs before the
fraud is biscovered.
The Messrs. Coffroth & Ruppel, of
Somerset,attornerys for J.C.Begley late
editor and proprietor of the Windber
Journal, have brought suit against the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company for
$30,000 damages in behalf of Mr. Beg-
ley, who, it will be remembered, was so
severely injured in the horrible rail-
road accident at the Johnstown station
in July last. Mr. Begley has not vet
recovered from the injuries he receiv-
ed in that accident, and it is feared by
himself and friends he never will be
fully restored to health. The same at-
torneys will shortly bring a similar
suit against the Pennsylvania railroad
for Mrs. Annie Begley, wife of Mr. Beg-
ley, for $30,000, who lost a leg, and one
for their young child that was killed in
the same accident for $20,000. The
suits will be tried in the cgurts of Som-
erset county.
This season there is a large death
rate among children from croup and
lung troubles. Prompt action will save
the little ones from these terrible dis-
eases. We know of nothing so certain
to give instant relief as One Minute
Cough Cure. It can also be relied upon
in grippe and all throat and lung
troubles of adults. Pleasant to take.

There is a drayman in an Illinois
town who secured a home of hisown in
a novel way. For years he had work-
ed hard and never got ahead. Ore day
he made a bargain with himself that
every time a dime came into his hands
he would put it in a little tin box he
had in his house. For two years this
box never opened. The bargain
was faithfully kept, and every time any
one paid him a dime, into the box it
went as soon as he got home. At the

Somerset has the kind of a police-
man every town of 500 or more inhabi-
tants ought to have. He is a quiet,
gentlemanly fellow who used to do
duty on the Johnstown police force,and
the most careless observer will notice
that he understands his business. He
does not court trouble, but when any
disturber of the peace causes any, the
aforesaid officer stops it on short order.
If the disturber peacefully goes with
the officer when arrest is attempted,all
is well; but if the slightest resistance
is offered, the officer’s mace gets in its
work quickly and effectively. There is
no “chewing the rag,” which most of-
ficers tolerate and indulge in them-
selves, and when a policeman follows
the Somerset officer’s plan, professional

old employes and our citizens in gen-
eral were all pleased to again have an
opportunity to shake hands and con-
verse with him, for he stands high in
the estimation of our people, and we
are all sorry to learn that the big fac-
tory will not be rebuilt. We miss the
sound of the factory whistle, and the
burning of the works is a loss to the
community that will be felt and de-
plored.
When threatened by pneumonia or
any other lung trouble, prompt relief
is necessary, as it is dangerous to de-
lay. We would suggest that One Min-
ute Cough Cure be taken as soon as
indications of having taken cold are
noticed. It cures quickly and its early
use prevents consumption. Miller &
Shaler.
Some time ago the Windber Journal
and the Windrer Era agreed on a
schedule of prices for advertising and
job printing, and the arrangement was
made upon the solicitation of the edi-
tor of the Era. The Journal has been
sticking to schedule prices, as per
agreement, but its editor recently dis-
covered that the Era has been solicit-
ing work at from one-third to less than
one-fourth the prices agreed upon, and
accordingly the Journal man last week
exposed the Era’s treachery and black-
leg business methods, citing the public
to several incidents to prove its asser-
tions. While the difficulty is no affair
of ours, we nevertheless cannot refrain
from expressing our condemnation of
time ago, after which he will again re- |

Persons who suffer from indigestion
can not expect to live long, because
they cannot eat the food required to
nourish the body and the products of
the undigested foods they do eat poison

digestion as soon as possible, and the
Lest method of doing this is to use the

Mr. Henry Fresh, the genial and
popular head clerk of the Elk Lick
Supply Company’s large department
store, informs Tur Star that their
trade among people not engaged in
mining shows an increase for the year
1600 of 140 per cent. over the year
1899. This is most gratifying indeed,
and there are several reasons for
such a phenomenal increase. In the
first place, this firm has a store that
would be a credit to a city of 50,-
000 inhabitants. Secondly, Mr. Fresh
is the right man in the right place, and
every clerk about the store is accom-
modating and courteous. Third, the
Elk Lick Supply Company does not
have its shelves filled with old goods
bought *“befo’ de wah.” Nothing but
the best and freshest goods are sold at
this store, and the firm is not afraid to
advertise. The management does not
the Era’s dirty tactics. That paper
believe in keeping mum and allowing
Spiders to spin eSowels across the docr.
This firm changes its advertisements fre
quently, and people have learned to
look for new announcements in the
local paper as fast as they are made,
because they have found that it pays
them to do so. Besides, people
like to see a firm wide awake, always
striving for more business, and they
have learned that such firms are al-
ways the most liberal and desirable to
deal with. Old methods of doing busi-
nass are no longer in fayor with the
people, and a fossil in charge of a store
is not often sought, even by relic hunt-
ers. More power and business to the
Elk Lick Supply Company or any other
firm that merits the same.
An exchange says: Some time ago a
cranky sort of a man came into this
office as mad as a hornet and stopped
his paper. We have frequently met
him on the square since that time,and
it is very amusing to note the look of
amazement on his face that we are still
in existence, despite the fact that he
stopped his paper. Some day, and it
won’t be long either, that poor fellow
will turn up his toes. His spiteful
heart will be stilled forever. Neigh-
bors and relatives will follow his life-
less clay out to the silent city on the
hill and lay it to rest beneath the shad-
ows of the cedars. An obituary will
appear in these columns, telling what a
kind father, good neighbor and benevo-
lent citizen he was—which the record-
ing angel will kindly overlook for
charity’s sake—and in a short time he
will be forgotten. As he lies out there
in the cold grave yard wrapped in the
silent slumber, he will never know the
last kind word ever spoken of him was
by this paper which, while on earth he

a Popular Hotel.
For a small town, West Salisbury
has a very up-to-date hotel. We often
hear people who from time to time put
up at the West Salisbury hotel, prais-
ing the house and its genial proprietor,
Mr. J. F. Klare. The accommodations
are all that could be desired, and we
have often heard guests remark that
Mr. Klare is none of the men that run
a public house simply to sell liquor.
Tie Star man has dined there himself,
and we have always found the West
Salisbury house an orderly, well regu-
lated and up-to-date public house. This
is more than can be said of many hotels
located in small mining towns. We
congratulate Landlord Klare on his
success in the hotel business, and we
believe the West Salisbury people ap-
preciate the excellent hotel service he
is giving them.
Another Word to >the Ladies,
We understand there are still a few
ladies in Salisbury and vicinty who
did not take advantage of our recent
offer to send an elegant silver-plated
sugar shell absolutely free of charge to
any married’ lady who would simply
ask for it, so we will renew the offer for
a short time only. We sell these shells
regularly at forty cents each. Retail
jewelers ask fifty to seventy-five cents
for such goods. They are exquisitely
beautiful ereations in high-grade silver
plate. To further advertise our ware
we will send one, postpaid, to every
married lady who has not received one.
This announcement should be cut out
and returned to us with your request.
