C. Lowry has returned from Markleton Sanitarium, where he had taken a week’s treatment for his ling- ering ailment. He was somewhat ben- efited, but will not return. Miss Nellie VanVliet and Dr. A. L. Haselbarth, who have spent a pleasant visit for a month at the home of C. R. Haselbarth, returned to their home _at Pella, Iowa, on Monday last.

Pretty good for one day’s -sport.—Meyersdale Republican. F. P. Beachy, Geo. Dull and Ross Lichty returned home, Monday morn- ing, from their Assiniboia trip. The Carleton people were so well pleased with that country that they invested in Canada land.—Carleton (Neb.) Lead- er. Dr. Parkhurst says solemnly that the drunkard’s path leads to the hearse and to the grave. He might as well have added that the sober man’s path leads in the same direction. It’sa sure “pop” for both, sagely remarks the Cumberland Courier. Last week our Methodist {friends elevated a fine new bell to the belfry of their new church spire, on Ord street. The new bell has a remarkably elear and pleasing tone. The whole church has been overhauled and remodeled, avhich adds much to its good appear- ance. The original is always the best—imi- stations are cheap. Bee’s Laxative Honey and Tar is the original Laxative Cough Syrup. It is different from all others—it is better than all others—it is better than all others, because it cures all coughs and colds and leaves the system stronger than before. The letter B in red is on every package. The Chicago strike is off, practically. and the striking teamsters are hunting new jobs, as they will not be taken by the old employers. Serves them right. If a full grown wan does not know when he has a good thing he ought not to depend on a walking delegate to make him wise, says the Lanark (Ill) Gazette. Hugh C. McKenrick who is here in the interest of the International Cor- respondence Schools, of Scranton, Pa., has a very fine exhibit in the window of Schramms’ grocery. There are many young men in this vicinity who should see Mr. McKenrick and learn of the great advantages he has to offer along the line of useful education. One dose of Pineules taken at bed- time will entirely relieve the most ob- stinate case of backache before morn- ing. Pineulesis a certain cure for all kidney and bladder troubles.

Instead of passing ordinances to keep the chil- dren off the streets, they propose to go after the gadding mothers, arguing that if they stay at home and attend to their duties the children will remain there, too, and they're about right. Word was received here this morn- ing to the effect that Mrs George Letchworth, formerly Miss Mary Easton, is ill beyond recovery, at her home, which we believe is in Bedford county. This is distressing news to that lady’s many Salisbury friends. Her sister, Mrs. George Fogle, has hastened to her bedside, we under- stand. A farmer has discovered that he can obtain soft water from hard water by the use of his cream separator. He pours the water into the machine just as he would milk, first running a high rate of speed. Soft water comes out of the milk spout while the rest comes out of the cream spout. It seems al- most incredulous that this should be so. Maybe it isn’t; try it. We are in receipt of a copy of the Thunder Mountain News, published at Roosevelt, Idaho, and bearing date of July 22nd. 1905. By perusing its col- umns we notice that potatoes were selling at Roosevelt, during July, at 15 cents per pound or $9.00 per bushel. Our friend Sam Kimmel is located there, and in spite of high prices of eatables, he is prosperous, hearty and happy. William Lambert, one of our old schoolmates of the days of 1874 to 1877, was in town last Sunday visiting his brother Edward. He is a resident of McKeesport, Pa., where he is following contracting in the cementing and plastering lines. It was his first visit to Salisbury in 22 years, and, naturally, he beheld many changes. “Billy” is looking well, and he is the same genial, humorous chap as of yore. Here is the latest tribute to the “kicker,” by one who has evidently been around a bit: “If there was an ice-cold lemonade spring in every gar- dén, if bread grew on sunflower stalks, and if every blade of grass was tipped with $10 bills, a certain class of cranks would kick because there are no siraws in the lemonade, no butter or preserves on the bread, and because the grass didn’t produce $20 instead of $10 on the blades. All old-time cough syrups were de- signed to treat throat, lung and bron- chial affections withoutidue 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, ete. Bee’s Laxa- tive Honey and Tar is the original Laxative Cough Syrup.

Stewart, of Wilkes Barre, Pa., is gathering data in this town and vicinity for the very extensive and com- plete History of Somerset County now being compiled by Wm. H. Welfley, under the editorship of Gen. W. H Koontz. Everybody he interviews should give him as much reliable data as possible, and everybody who can af- ford it should subscribe for a copy of the history, which will be a magnificent work in three volumes. selling at $18.00. Susan Diehl Daniels, wife of John Daniels, of West Salisbury, Pa., died on the 7th inst., aged 53 years, 5 months and 25 days. She died of cancer of the stomach, of which dreadful malady she suffered a long time. Mrs. Daniels was a good woman and was greatly esteem- ed by those who knew her. She was a member of the Lutheran church, and the funeral was conducted yesterday, by her pastor, Rev. E. 8. Johnston, D. D. Deceased is survived by a husband and several children. Dr. T. F. Livengood, of Elizabeth, N. J., spent Monday and Tuesday in this, his native town, accompanied by his aged mother, who for the past year has been residing with her daughter, Mrs. W. H. Dill, of Meyersdale. The doctor is looking hale and hearty, and he seems to improve with age, in every way. His numerous Salisbury friends were sorry indeed that he could not remain with us longer, this trip. The editor and family enjoyed a short, but pleasant visit from him, and are under obligations to him for some presents delivered for our youngest son, the Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 9-1 doctor's namesake.

In the meantime his nose got no better, but instead began to assume gigantic proportions. At last he con- sulted his wife about it and asked her advice. She asked him what he had been doing for it, and he said that he had been using that liniment in the pantry. “What liniment?” sbe asked. He got the bottle and showed her. “Well, of all the fools, you beat alll” screamed the wife. “That ain’t lini- ment ; that’s a bottle of ‘bust develop- er’ that Mary Ann sent to Frostburg for.

A broken rail caused the train to leave the track, turning the coaches down an embank- ment.
