Winter, of Baltimore, is having much trouble with a leg that he broke some time age, and which, for some reason does not want to heal. Mr. Winter is well known in Salisbury, where he hns many friends who hope for his complete recovery. Backache is never known to those persons who take an occasional dose of Pineules. The value of the resin ob- tained from the Pine tree has long been recognized in the treatment of diseases of the bladder and kidneys. One dose of Pineules will give relief, and one bottle will cure.

A little Salisbury tot of seven, whose parents had decided to move to Mey- ersdule, was saying her prayers on the evening before their departure. After putting in a few extras, as she thought the occasion demanded, she wound up by saying: “And now, goodbye, God, for tomorrow we are going to move to Meyersdale, where nobody knows you. Geo. K.

Mr. Walker sends kind regards to the editor and family, and he can rely on it that we return the compliment and wish the Walker family happiness and prosperity wher- ever they may reside. A Kansas preacher tells the follow- ing story: “I had occasion onetime to hold Christmas services in alittle town not far from Topeka. The choir was composed of two old maids and two bachelors. When the chorus of the of- ficial Christmas hymn was reached, the old maids alone sang, ‘Unto us a child has been born, and the old bachelors followed up with *‘W-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l, w-0-n-d-e-f-u-1”” Then some wag in the front seat snickered. In New York City, recently, a rich man gave a hundred thousaud dollar dinner, while about the same time a poor boy, who had done all he could to keep his mother from starving, starved to death. Will anyone, after hearing of such events in the same city, doubt that an allwise Creator has prepared a hell for people who deserve to be in such a place? Hell is necessary. If such men would zo to heaven it would spoil the place, says an exchange It is difficult to cure a cough or free yourself from the discomforts of a cold unless you move the bowels. Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar acts on the bowels and drives all cold out of the system. Then comes its soothing effect and strengthening influence upon the throat and lungs. For Croup, Whoop- ing Cough, Colds, and all Lung and Bronchial affections, no remedy is equal to the original Laxative Honey and Tar. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 6-1 While in Somerset, last week, we dropped in to see our genial and hust- ling friend, Harry Kifer, who is in the restaurant business in that town. We sampled one of the meals for which his restaurant is famous, and we were more than pleased with the “lay-out.” The cooking was done by John Trent, a young man from Boynton, who engag- ed with Saylor & Kifer with but little or no experience. John, however, was both willing and quick to learn and to-day he is a restaurant cook that is hard to beat. While in Somerset, last Saturday, we accepted an invitation to take dinner with two of our best friends, Mr. and Mrs. F. O. Livengood. Itreally seemed like getting back home, for it’s many a day’s work we did for those two kind and valued friends on their farm near Boynton, when they resided there years ago. The dinner was fit for a king, and that’s the only kind of a meal Mrs. Livengood has ever been known to prepare. Yes, we felt very much at home, we did the dinner justice and enjoyed a good, long talk with the host and hostess. We found them well and [ happy, nnd we trust that their deelin- ing years may be very happy ones, and tree from aches, pains and sorrow. Druggist E. H. Miller and his brother Willard have decided to add a finely equipped drug store to the business concerns of Berlin. In speaking of the new store, the Berlin Gleaner has the following to say: “Mr. W. H. Miller, of the drug firm of Miller & Miller, is here this week having the fine new room in the Garman building arranged to receive the fixtures and a stock of drugs that will in every sense surpass anything of this nature that has yet been put in Berlin. The members of this firm are both competent and skill- ed druggists. They will have an open- ing day, which will be announced later. Owing to the misshipment of some of | the fixtures, it will be nearly two weeks | until the doors will be open to the | public.” Notice is hereby served upon two old fools in this town that we have now bleeding, itching and protruding piles. | stood about all of their slander that Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 6-1 we're going to stand without striking back. We have never harmed the old fools we have in mind, and we have always treated them on the square. One of the old rams is probably “huffy” because we refused to reprint for him some copies of n most hideously filthy and obscene poem that he had been carrying around, thus making himself liable to a term in the penitentiary. We told him that we were not running a bawdy house print shop, and we also told him what we thought of a married man of his age guilty of carrying about and showing such obscene litera- ture to others. The old ram is liable to a thorough expose at any time, and the other old ram had also better keep his mouth hut about others, or several people we know of will go before the proper officer and swear to some very scandalous stories that he has repeat- ediy told on himself and certain women at places where he worked at various times. Now, gentlemen, (?) if you get your medicine in doses large enough to get you into serious trouble, don’t blame us. You have been snapping at our heels without cause about long enough, and the time for retaliation has arrived. Keep your eyes on THE STAR. Croup is quickly relieved, and Whooping Cough will not “run its course” if you use the original Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar. This Cough Syrup is different from all others be- cause it acts on the bowels. You can not cure Croup and Whooping Cough until you rid the system of all conges- tion, by working off the cold through a copious action of the bowels. Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar does this, and cures all Coughs, Croup, Whooping Cough, ete. No opiates. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 6-1 A MAIL CAR BURNED. The U. 8S. mail coach on west bound B. & O. passenger train No. 9 was dis- covered to be on fire when approach- ing Hyndman at 2.30 o’clock, Wednes- day of last week. The train was stop- ped at the water tank just south of the town, and heroic efforts were put forth by the train’s crew, mail clerks and passengers to save the burning car after it was removed from the train. The work was fruitless, and the car with its entire contents, consisting of 17,000 lbs. of mail matter, among which was a lot of currency and much regis- tered matter, were all destroyed. The fire was caused by a hot box on one of the car trucks. THE COLONEL’S WATERLOO. Colonel John M. Fuller, of Honey Grove, Texas, nearly met his Waterloo, from Liver and Kidney trouble. In a recent letter, he says: “I was nearly dead, of these complaints, and, although I tried my family doctor, he did me no good; so I got a 50c. bottle of your great Electric Bitters, which cured me. I consider them the best medicine on earth, and thank God who gave you the knowledge to make them.” * Sold, and guaranteed to cure, Dyspepsia. Biliousness and Kidney Disease, by E. H. Miller, druggist, at 50c. a bottle. 4-1 WONDERFUL STREET CAR BRAKE, A Clever Invention by a Former Salisbhry Man. Henry Fresh, a former resident of Salisbury, is the inventor of a streel car brake that promise: rich returns for the time and labor devoted to the invention. Mr. Fresh studied out the invention during his residence in Salis- bury, and his many friends here will read the following from the Cumber- land Daily News with much interest: “The Emergency Car Brake Com- pany. of this city. made a practical test of their emergency car brake on the Grant street grade, Frostburg, Satur- day morning, with great success. Car number 20, which is equipped with the brakes, was let loose at Main street and run to the heaviest grade without any brake resistance, and was stopped with the emergency brakes alone in 50 to 680 feet on the 12 per eent. grade, in the presence of a large crowd of spec- tators. There were a dozen or more runs made with the same results. The car was manned by Supt. Miller, and the brakes were applied by Henry Fresh, president and manager of the brake company. So great a confidence was obtained by the bystanders in the brake, after one or two applications of the brake, that a car was loaded to its capacity with spectators to ride down the grade when the test was made. The brakeshoes are operated under the wheels on the rails employing wool felt friction, which is the distinctive feature of the brake. The wool felt comes in contact with the rail and makes a sure stop on a slippery rail. The brake brings a car to stop from high speed in a short distance, without derailing the car or throwing the pas- sengers from their seats. It is auto- matie in its operation, independent of power, and under the control of the motorman at all times. Another test will be made in a short time, which will be announced through this paper, Another test was recently made on the same grade in the presence of Judge Koch and other officials of the | road. The former was well pleased with the working of the invention.” tlm. Foley’s Honey aad Tar | heals lungs and stops the cough.
