NEW MAIL SCHEDULE.
Elk Lick Mails Arrive Earlier and
Office Will Close Earlier.
Beginning on Monday, Sept. 4th, a
new mail schedule went into effect on
the route between the Meyersdale and
Elk Lick postoffices. Under the old
schedule, the carriers left Meyersdale
at 1:00 p. m. and 6:00 p. m., arriving at
Elk Lick at 3:00 p. m. and 8:00 p. m.
Under the new schedule, the first
hack must leave Meyersdale promptly
on receipt of the mail from trains No.
15 and 6, but not later than 1:00 p. m.
if trains are not on time. The second
hack must leave promptly on receipt of
mail from trains No. 5 and 14, but not
later than 6:00 p. m if trains are late.
The change means considerable to
the patrons of the Elk Lick office. It
means that when the trains are on
time, (and they are seldom more than
15 minutes late) that our first mail will
arrive here at least an hour earlier
than under the old schedule, while the
second mail will arrive at least a half-
hour earlier than under the old ar-
rangement. And when trains are very
much late, under no circumstances
will the Elk Lick mails be any later
than they were under the old schedule.
When trains are on time, the Elk
Lick office will close at 8:00 p. m., in-
stead of 8:30 p. m. as heretofore. This
will be quite a relief to the Elk Lick
postoffice employes, who have all along
been obliged to work much longer days
than the employes of any other office
in the county, and at the same time
the patrons of the office get their mails
much earlier than heretofore.
Application has also been made to
change the Grantsville carrier’s leav-
ing time, which will give the people of
that town, West Salisbury and Springs
the benefit of earlier mail.
Judging from the many expressions
we have already heard from the pa-
trons of the Elk Lick office, the new
schedule pleases the people very much.

LOGGED-OFF LAND.
Howard H. Keim Tells How it Can
be Made Very Profitable.
Following we reproduce an interest-
ing article which appeared in the Seat-
tle Post-Intelligencer, July 30th, 1905.
Elder Howard H. Keim, the gentle-
man quoted by the newspaper afore-
said, needs no introduction to the peo-
ple of this locality, and it seems to us
that the following article ought to be
of great interest to those who own the
vast tracts of logged-off lands in this
vicinity.
“Put sheep and goats on your logged-
off lands and you will very materially
increase the wealth of your state,” said
Elder Howard H. Keim, of the Wild
Rose Sheep farm, Ladoga, Ind., yester-
day, after a tour of investigation of
Puget Sound lands.
“The sheep will eat much of the grass
and a little of the brush ; the goats will
eat much brush and a little grass. The
two species of animale will wax and
grow fat side by side and give a mighty
increase to the hushandman” continu-
ed Elder Keim, who is reputed to be
one of the best authorities on the live
stock industry in the country.
Elder Keim has done more to intro-
duce and improve the Cheviot sheep in
the United States than any otherliving
mean, and his stock farm at Ladoga.
Ind. is the home of many of the finest
thoroughbreds in America. His cham-
pion ram, Victor, took the gold medal
at the Louisiana Purchase exposition,
and the Wild Rose herds contain many
noble specimens of mutton and wool
producers.
Besides being a farmer and stock
raiser, Elder Keim is a man of broad
culture and is a frequent contributor
to the liye stock journals and a lectur-
er at farmers’ institutes. His title of
“Elder” is due to the fact that he is a
reacher in the Dunkard or German
aptist church, a seet similar to the
Quakers in plainness of garb and
simple living. In his elerical suit of
drab, with his flowing beard and six
feet of sturdy manhood, Elder Keim is
a striking figure. He has just con-
cluded a tour of the Northwest, includ-
ing a visit to the Lewis and Clark ex-
position. with a view to acquiring land
in Oregon or Washington for stock-
raising purposes and making this sec-
tion of -the country his permanent
home.
Elder Keim, in an interview with &
Post-Intelligencer representative yes-
terday, stated that while he has made
farming pay in Indiana, land values
are so high there now that it will be
profitable to sell and buy cheap lands
in the Pacific Northwest, which he con-
siders peculiarly adapted to fine stock-
raising, and where the climate con-
ditions are a great deal more congenial
and the conditions of life easier than
in the middle West.
He was particularly impressed with
the adaptability of logged-off lands for
sheep and goat raising, and gave the
opinion that finely bred sheep and An-
gora goats on these lands would be a
money-making proposition.
Elder Keim’s stay in Seattle was cut
short by receipt of a telegram stating
that one of his children was ill. With-
out concluding his investigation here
he left hurriedly yesterday afternoon,
via the Canadian Pacific, for his home
in Indiana.
NUMEROUS AND WORTHLESS.
Everything is in the name when it
comes to Witch Hazel Salve. E.C. De-
Witt & Co. of Chicago discovered some
years ago how to make a salve from
Witch Hazel that is a specific for
Piles. For blind, bleeding, itching and |
protruding Piles, eczema, cuts, burns,
bruises and all skin diseases DeWitt’s
Salve has no equal. This has given rise
to numerous worthless counterfeits.

As to Hunters’ License.
It is not true, as many have been led
to believe, that the new game laws of
Pennsylvania require all hunters to
procure license. The license is requir-
ed only of non-residents and unnatur-
alized inhabitants who desire to hunt
in the state of Pennsylvania.
The Trolley.
Mr. W."W. Staub and son, of Pitts-
burg, visited here during the week.
He says they are no longer hampered
with other work, a portion of that work
now being in running order, and that
therefore, they will be able to pay all
their attention to this end of the line,
What were adverse conditions have suc-
cessfully been overcome. Besides, they
have a good portion of the money in
hand and more coming, some of it from
this section, and also have the promise
of New York contractors to take hold
of the road and complete it from Mey-
ersdale to Salisbury this fall and early
winter. “It is likely work will begin,”
he says, “within a month.” Well, it
will be a big paying scheme to the men
that put it down, says the Meyersdale
Commercial.

That Meyersdale Livery Stable
Scandal.
Eva Crosby, the girl of the livery
stable incident, was hauled before Jus~
tice Hay, Monday evening, and made a
clean brest of it. We thought she
would talk if the proper effort was
made. We do not propose to relate
particulars, but we do not think the
people of Meyersdale would have al-
lowed the matter to rest. There is an
awakening here as to the mcrals of the:
town, and it would be well if some peo-
ple who think they can do as they will
would take note of it. The Crosby girl,
who is an adopted daughter, has im-
plicated a score of men, most of them
married men, and as her father means
to push the matter to the limit there is
lots of trouble in sight for them at both
ends of the line. It is said the girl is
incorrigible. Perhaps she is. But that
does not excuse the parties who helped
to make her so. She can be easily sent
to the home for this class of people,
and the state will make an effort to re-
form her, but how about the men, mar-
ried and single, who helped destroy her
character and maidenly virtue? Are
they to go free to do the same for some
other poor, ignorant maiden? Take
this question home and ponder over it..
Her father says, no. Meyersdale,
which has awakened from its sleep,
too, says no. Hence there is trouble:
ahead, and the only wonder is that it
did not come long ago.—Meyersdale:
Commercial.
Give it to the men in the muss, Lou,
and spare them not. Expose the names.
of every mother’s son of them as freely
as you have exposed the name of the:
girl. Treat them all alike ; to do other-
wise is to be unjust, even though some
of them may belong to the Meyersdale
snobocracy. The girl, bad as she may
be, is an angel in comparison to the
men mixed up in the scandal.
Beware of Goldenrod.
It ie « common thing to see people
gathering goldenrod for bouquets and
decorating purposes at this season of
the year, but it is not generally known
that the goldenrod is a dangerous plant
to handle when it is in bloom. The
fine yellow pollen from its flowers is a
great producer of hay fever, one of the
most distressing and aggravating ail-
ments that humanity has ever suffered
with. As a producer of hay fever and
asthma, goldenrod is even worse than
ragweed. Many a case of the dread
malady has been contracted by per-
sons gathering bouquets of goldenrod,.
while the vietim of the disease never
for a moment suspected it.
There should be a law passed for the
compulsory destruction of goldenrod,
and it should be more stringent than
the Canadian thistle law, Hay fever,
when once contracted, returns annual-
ly thereafter to torment its victim, and
many other diseases grow out of it that
frequently terminate fatally. We
know by bitter experience that it is
next to impossible to cure hay fever,
and to avoid as much human suffering
as possible, we warn our readers to
avoid goldenrod as much as possible.
For Conviets’ Families.
The following from the Johnstown
Tribune is one of the most sensible
ideas we have seen in print for a long
time:
“The new Commissioner of Charities
and Corrections for the State of New
Jersey, who was a preacher before he
got his present’ job, has started an
agitation for the improvement of the
convict labor laws of his state. One of
the suggestions he offers is that when
aman of family is imprisoned, the
work he does in the penitentiary shall
go to the support of his family.
This is good sense, and if put into
practice would result in a better dis-
tribution of punishment when a man
goes to prison. Under the existing or-
der of things in Pennsylvania and
elsewhere, the family of a convict is
often punished a great deal more than
he is. Frequently the husband is of
a callous nature, and the disgrace of
imprisonment makes little or no im-
pression upon him, while the labor may
not be as severe as that he was ac-
customed to do outside, his wife and
children in the meantime suffering al-
most untold hardships, and frequently
becoming a burden upon the public.
Another good effect of the practice
would be to keep the convicted man in
touch with his family, Very often
these relations are gradually broken:
off, even where a wife does not exer-
cise her right to secure a divorce, and
the man never returns to his home.
But if the husband and father knew
that the products of his labor went to
support wife and children, and the wife
and children knew that a regular week-
ly or monthly remittance had been
earned by the labor of husband and
father, such knowledge ought surely to
keep alive the affection for each other,
even if not more than a spark existed,
and perhaps would result §in the re-
establishment of a home at the expira-
tion of the prison term.
The New Jersey Charities Commis-
sioner’s plan seems worth trying, at
any rate.”
NO UNPLEASANT EFFECTS.
If you ever took DeWitt’s Little
Early Risers for biliousness or consti
pation you know what pill pleasure is.
These famous little pills cleanse the
liver and rid the system of all bile
without producing unpleasant effeets.
