Something that Ought {toilnterest Salisbury People Who;Have Located Elsewhere. THE STAR has for sale a limited num- ber of very fine pictures of Salisbury, size 22x32 inches, printed on extra heavy, smooth paper, from a very fine engraving. The sketching was done by T. M. Fowler, of Morrisville, Pa., who is an expert in his line and has been following his business in many differ- ent states of the Union. The picture is very clear and dis- tinct, showing all the streets plainly marked, and those familiar with the town can plainly recognize every build- ing init The pictures have sold like “hot cakes” here, and a limited number have been placed with THE STAR to supply those at a distance, who may désire them. Every former citizen of Salisbury ought to have one of these fine engrav- ings, as they show the progress the old town has been making, which has been very great in recent years. But we cannot supply them all, and those who apply first will get them. The picture includes West Salisbury, the surround- ing landscape and some of the farm houses in the immediate vicinity, also a large number of the principal build- ings printed around the margin of the engraving, from special drawings. Price, $1.50 per copy, plus 7 cents to pay postage. Address THE STAR, Elk Lick, Pa. tf PIANO LESSONS !|—Pupils taken by-Miss Linna M. Perry, graduate in music. Theory and harmony taught.

Every day is a fresh beginning; Every morn is the world made new, You who are weary of sorrow and sin- ning, Here is a beautiful hope for you, A hope for me and hope for you. All the past things are past and over, The tasks are done and the tears are shed, Yesterday’s errors let yesterday cover; Yesterday's wounds, which smart and bled, Are healed with the healing which night has shed. God placed Adam at the head of the household, but he created Adam and Eve equal, and true happiness can only come in the married life through the manhood of the man being equal to the womanhood of the woman. Our habits are formed under the mouldering power of home. The ten- der twig is there bent, the spirit shap- ed, principles implanted, and the whole character is formed until it becomes a habit. Goodness or evil are there “re- solved into necessity.” Who does not feel this influence of home upon all his habits of life? The gray-haired father who wails in his second infancy, feels the traces of his childhood home in his desires and habits. Bad company is like a nail driven into a post, which after the first or second blow can be drawn out with little difficulty ; but being once driven in up to the head, the pinchers connot take hold to draw it out, whieh can only be done by the destruction of the wood. You may be ever so pure, you cannot agsociate with bad companions without falling into bad order. From impure air we take diseases; from bad company vice and imperfection. Parents do wrong in keeping their children hanging around home in idle- ness and sheltered and enervated by parental indulgence. The eagle does better. It stires up its nest when the young eagles are able to fly. They are | compelled to shift for themselves, for the old eagle literally turns them out and at the same time tears all the down and feathers from the nest. ’Tis this rude and rough experience that makes the king of birds so fearless in his flight and so expert in his pursuit of prey. It is a.misfortune to be born with a silver spoon in your mouth. Riches often hang like a millstone about the necks of ambitious young people. When Garfield was inaugurated pres- ident of the United States on the 4th of March, 1881, after he had taken the oath of office in the presence of many thousands of people, he kissed the holy bible and then turned and kissed his aged mother and his wife. No artist can do justice to that event. He knew how proud his mother was to see him installed in the highest office in the gift of the American people, and in that hour of exaltation his heart turn- ed to his mother. How different this beautiful example left by our President to that of the average “Young Ameri- can” who never fails to speak of his mother as “the old woman.” YOUNG MEN WANTED, Every young man in Salisbury is wanted. Wanted from the street cor- ners, from the loafing rendezvous, from the idler’s promenade ; turn your steps into the highway of noble aim and earnest work. There are prizes enough for every successful worker, crowns enough for every honorable head that goes through the smoke of conflict to victory. There is within the young man an upspringing of lofty sentiment, which though there are obstacles to be sur- mounted and difficulties to be van- quished, yet with truth for his watch- word, and leaning on his own noble purposes and exertions, he may crown his brow with honors. He may never wear the warrior’s crimson wreath, the poet’s chaplet of bays, or the states- man’s laurels ; though no grand univer- sal truth may at his bidding be confess- ed to the world, though it may never be his to bring to a successful issue a great political resolution—to be the founder of a republic whose name shall be “a distinguished star in the constel- lation of nations,”—yea, more though his name may never be heard beyond the limits of bis own neighborhood, yet is his mission none the less a high and holy one. But why do so few young men of early promise, whose wise hopes, pur- poses, and resolves were radiant as the colors of the rainbow, fail to distin- guish themselves? The answer is obvious. They are not willing to de- vote themselves to the toilsome culture which is the price of success. What- ever aptitude for particular pursuits nature may donate to her favorite children, she conducts none but the la- borious and the studious to distine- tion. A TOUCHING STORY is the saving from death, of the baby girl of Geo. A. Eyler, Cumberland, Md. He writes: “At the age of 11 months, our little girl was in declining health, with serious Throat Trouble, and two physicians gave her up. We were al- most in despair, when we resolved to try Dr. King's New Discovery for Con- sumption, Coughs and Colds. The first bottle gave relief; after taking four bottles she was cured, and is now in perfect health.” Never fails to relieve and cure a cough or cold. At E. H.

A large number of the difficult acts seen with the Great Sells & Downs Show are in danger of not being ap- preciated because of the ease with which they are performed. One of the chief difficuities that confronts a man- ager of a big circus like the Sells & Downs Shows, is the scarcity of acro- batic equestriennes. The way to the pinnacle of fame in a circus ring is difficult and discourag- ing. Of the girls who essay the feats of a clevar rider not one in a thousand succeed, and only one in a hundred of those who succeed ever attain promi- nence. Prominent in the coterie of equestrienne celebrities with the Great Sells & Downs Shows is Miss Lulu Davenport. In point of poise, grace, dash and daring agility her riding sim- ply defies all description. Nothing she does looks difficult, nor appears, indeed to require effort. She is secure and as much at home in her unstable position on the heaving, bounding back of a galloping horse, as is a society belle on a ball-room floor. The cleverness of Miss Davenport deceives the publie, and makes it look easy. Any specta- tor who attempts to imitate the work of this celebrity will soon have such a delusion dispelled from their mind. The same thing may be said of all the hundreds of performers with the Great Sells & Downs Show. Every act is so cleverly, carefully and quickly execut- ed that the danger of the act is not ap- parent, and this fact overcomes the sensational tendency which is distaste- ful to many. The only fault with the Great Sells & Downs Shows is that it has too much going on at the same time, but the ar- rangement of the apparatus, parapher- palia and seats is such that every one can see a great deal more and get more satisfaction out of its perform- ance than out of the ordinary show. The Great Sells & Downs Shows will exhibit for one day only in Meyersdale, Saturday, Aug. 5th. SOOTHING AND COOLING. The salve that heals without a scar is DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. No rem- edy effects such speedy relief. It draws out inflammation, soothes, cools and heals all cuts, burns and bruises. A sure cure for Piles and skin diseases. DeWitt’s is the only genuine Witch Hazel Salve. Beware of counterfeits, they are dangerous. Sold by E. H. Miller. 9-1 Merger in Coal Land Rumored. The presence in the city last night, says a recent copy of the Johnstown Democrat, of two very prominent coal magnates, has given rise to many ru- mors among coal operators and dealers in coal options regarding the signifi- cance of their visit. The two visiting operators are Thomas Boswell, of Bal- timore, president of the Merchants Coal Company, and J. H. Jones, of Pittsburg. Mr. Boswell is at the head of the company which has such extensive op- erations in the vicinity, of Boswell, Somerset county, and Mr. Jones is at the head of or interested in 18 or 20 op- erations in the Pittsburg distriet. The meeting of these two gentlemen here at this time means, according to reliable information received, that im- portant developments in the coal situ- ation may be looked for. It was said that Mr. Jones has secured options on a great amount of territory in Somer- set county, and that he intends pooling his interests with Mr. Boswell and the Merchants Coal Company, so that all of the coal lands not now controlled by ‘| some other concern will be brought under one direction.
