All former citizens of Salisbury and
vicinity who have located in the far
west and elsewhere, should have one
of the large and handsome pictures of
our town that we have for some time
been advertising on the following page,

have a few of these handsome pictures
left, and those who have been buying
them would not take $10 apiece for
them. All purchasers are delighted,
and they marvel greatly at the im-
provement of the old town since they
left here.

W. 8. Easton and Wm. M. Cochrane
were both successful at the last ex-

which was given at Connellsville, re-
cently. Both were granted first class
certificates, for which they deserve
both credit and congratulation.” In a
few days Mr. Easton will go to Ten-
nessee, where he will join his brother
James in manipulating a core drill for
the same New York company that em-
ployed him at a fine salary, last year.
Walter is an expert in handling a core
drill, and he is a handy man at almost
everything useful.
All old-time cough syrups were de-
signed to treat throat, lung and bron-
chial affections without due regard for
the stomach and bowels, hence most of
them produce constipation. Bee's, the
original Laxative Honey and Tar,
gently moves the bowels and cures all
coughs, colds, croup, etc. Bee’s Laxa-
tive Honey and Tar is the original
Laxative Cough Syrup. Look for the

The Freeport Journal says: Minis-
ters of the gospel use their pulpits to
abuse Mr. Rockefeller for accepting re-
bates from railroads, while the minis-
ters themselves ride on half-fare per-
mits and accept a rebate from regular
rates of fifty per cent. in every trans-
action they have with a railroad com-
pany, a much larger rebate than was
ever given Rockefeller. Oh, consis-
tency, what have you done with your
jewelry? This is a queer world in
which we are living, nnd the ministers
of the gospel are just about as queer as
other people.
Some of the farmers out in the Maust
and Durst corner. south of Salisbury,
have been greatly annoyed by sheep-
killing dogs during the past year. Last
fall, in a single night, sixteen of Tru-
man Maust’s sheep were killed by dogs,
and on Tuesday night of this week
seven more of his flock met the same
fate. Others were badly bitten, and as
some are also missing, more than seven
may have been killed. Other farmers
in the vicinity have also suffered loss
of the same kind at various times, and
they have resolved to band themselves
together for mutual protection of their
property. Trespassers and owners of
dogs will be duly notified as to what is
expected of them if they wish to avoid
arrest and heavy fines.
Henry C. Demming, M. E.,, of Har-
risburg, Acting State Geologist of
Pennsylvania, was a recent visitor at
Boswell. Mr. Demming has been re-
quested to prepare an article for the
“Engineering and Mining Journal,” of
New York, on the bituminous coal in-
dustry of Pennsylvania, and has se-
lected the Quemahoning mine of the
Merchants Coal Company, at Boswell,
as the subject of his description of a
model Pennsylvania bituminous coal
mine. Mr. Demming is regarded as
one of the best authorities on geology
in the country, and was selected by the
United States War Department to
make an extended examination and
report on the geological conditions in
the Philippine Islands, but the de-
mands of his private practice compell-
ed him to refuse the assignment, says
the Somerset Herald.
Here is an item from a health jour-
nal’s May issue: “Charlotte Dunning,
of Waterford, Ind., slept outdoors
without a stitch on, near the home of
her uncle at Granada, Col. She would
dig up a little earth, and lie in it, with-
out any clothes on, and found it re-
stored her to health. In the morning,
she rolled in a dewy clover bank, and
then ran through the woods, still in
the Altogether,to a lake where she
took a plunge. She never used a towel,
but let the sun dry ber off. A dog was
her only companion. She had to give
it up when winter came on, but has
begun it again this spring.” The Here
and There Man doesn’t pretend to say
whether or not this will bring roses to
the cheeks if practiced in the vicinity
of Johnstown, like it does in Colorado,
but he has a suspicion that if Miss
Dunning were to try it here she would
have a mighty sight larger audience
than indicated above.—Johnstown
Tribune.
A gay and handsome traveling man
lay on a bed of pain; all hope was past,
his life ebbed fast, he ne’er wouid rise
again. “Have you no sweetheart, fair
and true,” they whispered o’er his bed,
“whom you would tell a last farewell?”
The young man softly said:- “There's
Daisy, back in Burlington, and Millie,
up at Blair; there's Katie, down in
Watertown, and Mary, at Eau Claire;
and at Green Bay there’s Esther, dear,
whom I must surely see, and Annie,
too, at Waterloo; please bring them all
to me.” The watchers stared in wild
surprise, and then they said once more
—*And tell us, pray, without delay. the
girl whom you adore. The girl whom
you have sworn to love and bring both
wealth and fame! Your promised wife
and hope and life—quick let us know
her name.” “There’s Susie, at Berlin,”
he said, “and Mame, at Antigo, there's
Violet, at Marinette, and May, at old
8t. Joe ; there’s Hattie, too, in Baraboo,
and Mabel, at Whitehall.” The young
man sighed, “It’s time I died, I've
sworn to love them all.”—Ex.

NO SECRET ABOUT IT.
It is no secret, that for Cuts, Burns,
Ulcers, Fever Sores, Sore Eyes, Boils,
ete., nothing is so effective as Bucklen’s
Arnica Salve. “It didn’t take long to
cure a bad sore I had, and it is O. K.
for sore eyes,” writes D. L. Gregory, of
Hope, Tex. 25c. at E. H. Miller’s drug
store. 7-1

sylvania, will speak in the Salisbury

QUALITY VS. QUANTITY.
Hard muscles and strong body do
not depend on the quantity of food you
eat, but on its perfect digestion and
proper assimilation. When you take
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure your system
gets all the nourishment out of all the
food you eat. It digests what you eat
regardless of the condition of the stom-
ach and conveys the nutrient proper-
ties to the blood and tissues. This
builds up and strengthens the entire
system. Kodol cures Indigestion, Dys-
pepwia, Belching, Sour Stomach, Weak
Heart, ete. Sold by E. H. Miller. 7-1

Pronouneces The Star a Good Adver-
tising Medium.
The Lindgren Chemical Company, of
Detroit, Mich., last year advertised for
a few months in THE STAR a prepara-
tion with which to annihilate weeds,
The manager of the company recently
wrote to THE Star as follows:
“We are glad to state that we have
received many inquiries from the ad,
in your paper, and are well pleased
with results.”
Further comment is unnecessary,
and the wise will continue to advertise.
It pays to advertise in THE STAR.
To Make You Shiver.
Judge Perry Weimer, speaking Thurs-
day of the cool temperature of the day,
said that on the 18th day of May, 42
years ago, he had to go to Grantsville
through a falling snow which reached
a depth of 13 inches.
Later Davisson Armstrong, president
of the Citizens’ National Bank, stated
that on the 5th day of May, 1859, snow
fell to a depth of 18 inches, and on
June 4th, a month later, there was a
freeze which destroyed all the fruits
and vegetables hereabout.—Frostburg
Journal.
