Marriage is only beautiful, moral or holy while love rivets two. hearts and peace and harmony broods over the hearthstone. The majority of women do not re- quire extravagant pleasures to keep them happy. All they want is a little attention and considerable thought. There are many sad wives all over the land who could be made happy by knowing that one evening each week was certain to bring them companion- ship of their husbands, and some little pleasant outing. The rough experience of the roaring, toiling, stormy world may blot out all other things from the mind, but the picture of our early home must hang forever on the walls of memory, until the “silver cord be loosened or the golden bowl be broken.” A man may be riech in this world’s goods, influential through worldly power, great in the world’s magnifi- cence ; but there is no possession which anyone can call “my own” which can compare with that priceless of all prec- ious possessions, “my mother.” We wonder how many parents real- ize that their child is a book of blank paper in which shall be recorded the record of their own lives. Be careful, therefore, what you have written theres for the world will read it. All your secret thoughts the child will try to write. Not infrequently we see mothers who mentally and physically antago- nize their daughters, but there is a spiritual law, as well as the law of good taste, which should compel a daughter to be respectful and polite to her moth- er, even if she cannot give her love or admiration. There would be more business in- tegrity and truer success if our young men would carry in their pockets and study the book of Proverbs. “He be- cometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand, but the hand of the dilligent maketh rich.” “A false balance is abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is his delight.” Some of us, especially the strictly orthodox Christians, are likely to meet with great surprises in the world to come. Each soul like each railroad engine must follow its own headlight. There are many tracks, but the Great Station awaits us all if we follow the headlight of our conscience and live close to the Golden Rule. As king over the stalwart oak and lofty pine, the fig-tree would have been a dead failure, and as much out of place as some of our politicians are in Congress ; but for bearing figs the oak and pine are its inferiors. Bearing figs is the grandest thing in the world for a fig tree. It shines in its own sphere; but, stripped of its fig-bearing power, it has no excuse for existence. Some- times a mother, who reigns a majestic queen in her own household, forsakes her quiet sweetness of home rule for a noisy, rough, public career, for which she has not the slightest qualification. Of course there are no such mothers who are readers of this paper, but we have seen them, and so have you. The proper education of our girls is one of the important questions of the present century. It is something more than a social problem, and is deserving of our best thoughts. It is a civil and political, a moral and religious problem. The presence of women constitutes one of the chief charms and benefits of so- ciety. It is she who far more than man gives character to society. Into her care have been entrusted the na- tion’s future statesmen, those who soon are to be clothed with authority and to make laws for the greatest na- tion on the globe, as her education be- comes a civil and political problem. Her gentle presence as she bends over the cradle, and the silent influence of her daily life are shaping the entire moral character of the coming genera- tion, and thus her education becomes a moral problem. 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.

In the last days of the trout fishing a couple of our well-known citizens drove over on the Negro mountain and spent the day in luring these shy fish from their lair, and they were fairly successful, and returned home with several good stories to tell of their trip. But there was a sequel that they were not looking for, and that was when an irate farmer put in an appearance here one day last week with a bill for dam- ages to an oat field that his sheep had destroyed. Thoy had passed through his pasture, and left one of the lower bars down, and about fifty head of sheep tackled the farmer’s oat field, and made it look as though the Japo- Russia army had passed over it. They settled with the farmer by paying him his claim.—Meyersdale Republican. DANGEROUS'AND UNCERTAIN. For sunburn, tetter and all skin and scalp diseases, DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve hag no equal.

Under this head Tae Star will from week to week expose some of the fraud- ulent advertising schemes by which shrewd charlatans in various cities and towns gather in the hard-earned coin of unsuspecting persons who are usual- ly on the lookout to get something of considerable value for a trifling con- sideration, or who are looking for easy employment at good wages. Read this column closely, as it may save you from being a “sucker” and foolishly parting with your money. THE MATRIMONIAL LURE. Some philosopher, or cynic (accord- ing to one’s way of thinking) once said that a man marries because he is tired ; a woman because she is curious. How- ever that may be, there are a great many men and women who wish to marry, and the fake matrimonial “ad” is designed for such as these. One of the latest frauds of this class to be snuffed out by the Postoffice Depart- ment operated fiom South Bend, In- diana. The postoffice inspector who investigated this case states that the proprietor of this matrimonial agency formerly kept a disreputable resort near the outskirts of South Bend. This man’s advertisements signed “Walter” and “May” appeared until recently in the personal columns of many leading Sunday papers throughout the country, and he received on an average 1,400 letters a week, many of them contain- ing money orders. Here are the ads: A REFINED American girl, attractive, , well educated and very wealthy, would like kind, honest husband. No ebjection to oor man. Address MAY, 156 Main St. outh Bend, Ind. A MI1IDDLE-AGED bachelor in comfort- able circumstances would like cheerful, home-loving wife. No objection to poor woman. Address WALTER, 138 Main St. South Bend, Ind. Persons answering either of these advertisements were required to pure chase a membership ticket in the matri- monial agency as a necessary prelimi- pary to meeting his, or her, affinity. It cost men five dollars to be introduced to “May,” and women two dollars to be introduced to “Walter.” After parting with their money, the would-be brides and grooms found it difficult to obtain satisfactory replies from the agency. and in most cases gave up in despair, and, as a rule, in silence. Some of the disappointed ones, however, braved publicity by complaining to the postal authorities with the result that fraud orders were issued against “Walter” at 138 Main street and against “May” at 156 Main street, who, strange to say, seem never to have met. THE ONLY WAY. There is no way to maintain the health and strength of mind and body except by nourishment. There is no way to nourish except through the stomach. The stomach must be kept healthy, pure and sweet, or the strength will let down and disease will set up} No appetite, loss of strength, nervous- ness, headache, constipation, bad breath, sour risings, rifting, indiges- tion, dyspepsia and all stomach troub- les that are curable are quickly cured by the use of Kodol Dyspepria Cure. Kodol digests what you eat and strengthens the whole digestive appar- atus. Sold by E. H. Miller. 9-1 Two from the Rockwood Gazette. Mr. E. D. Miller, whose serious ill- ness has been mentioned, suffered a re- lapse Sunday, which, for a time, threat- ened to prove serious, but his robust constitution asserted itself,and he is again on the road to recovery. Last Saturday was a bad day for baseball in Somerset county. Rock- wood’s aggregation went to Berlin and got done up by a score of 6to1l. Som- erset played the West Newton club on the former’s ground and lost by a score of 1 to 0, and then wanted to whip the umpire, Milt Black, who was taken off the ground by the sheriff to save him. Meyersdale and Ursina-Humbert alsc played a seven-innings game Saturday, which appears to have ended in a fight. Umpire Davis, of Ursina, according to reports, was knocked down by whom it is not stated, and Editor G. E. Bishop, of the Meyersdale Republican, the same authority states, struck two men. The county seat and the metropolis are surely adepts at baseball bulldoz- ing, and other teams of the county should for the sake of decency, decline to play them. The Kansas Corn Liar Heard From. Topeka, Aug. 9.—The Kansas Corn Stalk Waterpipe Company was granted a charter by the State Charter Board yesterday. The company has a capital stock of $7,000,000 and will build a fac- tory at Salina to manufacture corn stalk water pipes, which experiments have shown are stronger than cast iron. All sizes from twelve to forty-eight inch in diameter will be made. Small- er sizes may be made later for oil lines. There is no demand for larger than forty-eight inch sizes, though one twenty-foot section of ninety-eight inch pipe has been placed on exhibition at the State House. J. H. Thomas, of Tribune, Greeley county, who has 34,- 000 acres in corn, is President of the concern. D&F™ The Pittsburg Daily Times and THE STAR, both one year for only $3.75 cash in advance.
