I've toiled with the men the world has blest, And I've toiled with the men who failed, I've toiled with the men who strove with zest, And I've toiled with men who wailed. And this is the tale my soul will tell, As it drifts over the harbor bar; The sound of a sigh don’t carry well, But the lilt of a laugh rings far. The men who were near the grumbler’s side, 0, they heard not a word he said; The sound of a song rang far and wide, And they harkened to that instead. Its tones were sweet as the tale they tell, ==AS the rise of the Christmas star— The sounds of a sigh don’t carry well, But the lilt of a laugh rings far. The ante-room to heaven is .found in loyal love and in an unsullied home life. The right kind of a man allows the whole world to see by his manner, his expression, and his life when he loves a good woman, but he keeps for her alone those demonstrations of affection which need no audience. Sympathy and encouragement are the spurs to greater deeds. One grain of sympathy can be compared toa grain of mustard seed, but one seed planted and replanted will be enough to finally spread over the largest field. A living seed once fell from a flying bird’s beak into the crevice of a rock. It grew and multiplied until finally it burst the rock in twain This is a scientific fact, a real happening. Be not selfish with your words of encouragement and sym- pathy. There is nothing so cheap, and yet nothing can be more valuable. What this old world needs is more sympathy and more encouragement. Why does a boy consider his mother his best friend? Because he can carry tH her his troubles and feel that she understands and will sympathize with him. Why does this self-same boy grown to be a man seek a mate? More sympathy. The companionship and encouragement of a kindred soul. We sny man (and that includes woman al-o) marries for love, and what is love but sympathy? The way of life is fill- ed with dreary places. To most of us, our pathways are sirewn with bitter disappointment. Our weary feet, in- stead of treading velvet cushions of green sod, stumble over jagged rocks. It is then that we seek an oasis of sympathy. We long to pour into sym- pathetic ears the tale of our troubles, our hopes and our ambitions. It is then the value of human sympathy is appreciated. Millionaire christains who have just plininied a corner on wheat will pau- perize thousands of their brother men, but will swell their own millions into billions, will bow their grey heads rev- erently on the velvet backs of costly pews, and glorify the name of that gentie Being who was born in a manger, and who bade his followers to do unto others as they would be done by. CHEERFULNESS. Every poison has its antidote, and the one that never fails to give relief in emotional poisoning, is laughter Laughter. or rather that pleasurable one of feeling which is an expression of it, is not only an antidote for de- nressing emotions, but itis a most ef- fective preventative of these emotional displays, and is also a far better tonic iu rhe entire body than any pharmacist can compound. The art of being cheerful is one that anyone can cultivate and develop to a most effective degree. It is easy enough to smile when everything looks bright and the world smiles with you, and it is very difficult to be cheerful when undergoing your most severe or- deals. Do not expect too much from your efforts at first. Begin with being caeerful under the more trifling annoy- ances. Control yourself in the lesser vexations, and you will gradually be- come master of yourself in the most severe ordeals. WOMAN IN THE HOME. In the home woman occupies a posi- tion of unlimited power and influence, if she but knew it. Nowhere else can she exert such an influence upon the life of the nation and the world at large. The moment she leaves the home in search of power, she leaves the sphere where her greatest power re- sides. One of the saddest and most menacing signs of the times, to our mind, is the neglect of the home of life, the way in which children are allowed to grow up on the streets, to be out at all hours of the night to seek pleasure away from the home. Today there is a tendency for women to look upon the cares of domestic life as irksome. There is a growing desire to appear in public life. The quiet home life ig too un- eventful, too humdrum. Any movement which tends to weak- en the family tie, to break up the home life, is dangerous in the extreme. In the home, and at the mother’s knee, love for home, love for country, love for righteousness and truth must be in- stilled. In the home, at the mother’s knee, the men who have been the world’s greatest leaders have been trained. In the home, at the mother’s knee, good men, strong men, righteous men, patriotic men, the men upon whom the destinies of the human race depend, in whom lie the strength and enthusiasm of a nation’s life, in the home these men are reared, and no- where else. To meet the crises which may arise at any time in the life of a country like our own, we must always have a vast reserve of loyal patriotism, good citizenship, sound morality and honest statesmanship ready at hand to summon at a moment’s notice. All this we must have to preserve the na- tion’s life. And all this depends almost entirely upon woman’s influence in the home. It is woman who saves and pre- serves the nation’s life. It always must be so in the future as in the past, not by voting, merely, but by patient devotion to her duty in the home and family, by bringing up her children to be trusted, relied upon to do the right thing under any circumstances, at any cost. : 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 rice to numerous worthless counterfeits. Ask for DeWitt’'s—the genuine. Sold by E. H. Miller. 10-1 Where is R. G. Walker? The disappearance of Russell G. Walker, the one-armed merchant at Husband, a small town three miles northwest of Somerset, seems to be quite an enigma. He located at this place some time in March last, and seemed to be doing a thriving business. On the morning of August 22 he told his children that he was going to leave. and after bidding them all farewell, said that he would never come back. His remarks were considered a joke, and never were taken seriously until it was too late. He went to Somerset, since which time he has not been seen. A wife and four small children were left alone to manage the store and the home. It was later learned that he had borrowed money wherever he could get it, contracted debts here and there, all of them being left unpaid, and had overdrawn his balance in bank. The wife of the missing merchant brought suit against him last week for $103, a claim formerly held by her father. A sheriff’s writ was served and the property sold at Sheriff’s sale, last Monday. When about three-fourths of the store goods was sold, the claim of Mrs. Walker had been met. But an- other levy followed. The amount of judgments held far exceeds the value of the property. The creditors who get the full amount of their claims can consider themselves very fortunate. Mrs. Walker is deserving of much sympathy, as she must care for her four small children and herself. Since the sale she has been conducting the store in her own name, and ‘will, no doubt, necquire a large trade, which she justly deserves. Her character and reputation is beyond reproach, and all who know her are aware that the hus- band vamoosed through no fault of his wife.—Berlin Record. — ——— ee Marriage Licenses.

Leora I HOME High Esteem In Which Candidate Plummer Is Held By Neighbors. INSURGENT FLING8 RESENTED Frem the Pulpit and Bench, In the Business World and Among the Wage Earners, Republican Nominee le Commended. Nothing has occurred in the history of local politice in this section during recent years to create such a thor- ough storm of indignation among the people of this locality, says a special from Altoona to the Philadelphia In- quirer, as did the unjust attack made in a speech delivered by O. H. Hewit, of Hollidaysburg, before the meeting of the Lincoln Party committee, held in Philadelphia and aimed directly against his fellow-towngsman, J. Lee Plummer, the Republicanl nominee for state treasurer of Pennsylvania. Mr. Hewit's remarks reflecting upon Mr. Plammer's standing in the com- munity were promptly resented by some of the most prominent men in Blair county, irrespective of their po- litical afiiations. Citizens of Hollidaysburg were par- ticularly incensed at the attack made upen Mr. Plummer and were quick to speak their minds on the subject. Mr. Hewit declares that he was misquoted, but whether he was correctly reported or mot, citizens generally hereabouts Rave taken occasion to vent their in- dignation at the wrong done Mr. Plummer, about whose standing in the eommunity there is but one opinion. It is of the very highest. The esteem in which Mr. Plummer fs held may De gathered from a few public statements made to a represen- tative of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Frem Judge and Pastor. President Judge Martin Bell says: “I have known J. Lee Plummer inti- mately for 25 years. He is a model husband and father, and his private character has been pure and free from: all taint of wrong-doing. His honesty and integrity, both as a citizen and lawyer, are unquestioned in this com- munity.” Rev. George S. Woomer, pastor of the First M. E. Church of Hollidays- burg, where Mr. Plummer attends, is quoted: “For more than two years I have been a resident of Hollidaysburg and the pastor of the First Methodist church located in this town. Hon. J. Lee Plummer is a member of the | church and a regular attendant at the church services. He is one of the trustees of the church, and for nine years has been the secretary and treasurer of the board. He has the confidence and esteem of the church membership and of the community at large. His private life and character are above reproach and his family life ig ideal. He holds my confidence and esteem as a man and as a Christian minister.” John D. Blair, a prominent lawyer, gays: “Mr. Plummer is one of our best citizens. He has always been indus- trious, upright, honest and honorable. A man of the very highest morals. I know of no one to whom I would trust my private affairs more implicitly than to Mr. Plummer. Acquainted with the trials of one who has never lost his close sympathy with the struggling masses, the people of Blair county by repeated ballot have borne testimony of their estimate of his worth. His friends are of the very best people of this community and their ardent sup- port of him is the evidence of their esteem.” Of Unimpeachable Integrity. W. I. Woodcock, a prominent mem- ber of the bar, states: “I have been in- timately aequainted with Mr. Plum- mer. He read law in my office. He is a man of unimpeachable integrity and unassailable moral character. He is strictly temperate, being an active member of the Methodist church.” Rev. P. Verliker, of St. Mark's Catholic church, frankly sald: “He is a gentleman from first to last. He is a good neighbor, a good citizen and con- sidered so by all with whom I have come in contact. Both Republicans and Democrats here hold him in high es- teem. The local citizens generally are willing to give him their support and anxious to see his election to the high office of the state treasurer. He is first among the first gentlemen of this bor- ough and morally as well as otherwige a most respected resident.” J. A. B. Melvin, president of the Al- toona Trust company, has this frank interview: “I have intimately known J. Lee Plummer about 22 years. I have lived a neighbor with him 18 years, nine of which have been on the same lawn, therefore have knowledge of his daily life during all these years. He has been uniformly kind and obliging and in every possible way has been to me a desirable neighbor. He is today and always has been a respected citizen of the town. He has been careful in his daily life. He is a member and offi- cial of the Methodist church, and won his way to present position of promi- nence through native ability, aided by such good qualities as named above.” J. King McLanaghan, Sr., president of the McLanaghan Stone Machine company, has this to say: “I have never heard anything derogatory to Mr. Plum- mer, and always found him to be an honest, upright citizen. I believe he will make an efficient state treasurer, and in my opinfon the people of Holli- daysburg, irrespective of politics, in- tend to vote for him.” “The People Like Mim.” P. W. Snyder, a well-known druggist, says: “Mr. Plummer is an honest, up- right citizen and has the respect of the wesidents of Molildaysdburg. He is a an among men, and socially he ia the ogand of any person known here to my seguaintance. The people of Hollldays- burg ltke him, but, like other men in pablfe life, he has some political ene- mies. I believe he will receive a mag- nificent vote in this town and county.” Frem Wage Earner and Merchant. John A. Filtz, a well-known wage- earner of Hollidaysburg, candidly says: “I believe I am only voicing the sen- timent of the working people when stating that no man is better liked or more popular here than J. Lee Plum- mer. He is friendly and courteous, and well thought of by all.” _ Frank Glessner, a leading merchant, gays: “Mr. Plummer {s a man of good moral character, an excellent citizen and in my opinion the people here can only speak of him in highest terms and respect.” Charles Hartsock, an aged engineer, who is past 72 years, says: “I have known Mr. Plummer for 32 years, and in my estimation there is not a more honest or popular man in Blair eoun- iy.’ John H. Law, a leading merchant and Democrat. is quoted: ‘I consider J. Lee Plummer to be one of the fairest men in the county. His dealings with the people are characterized by truth and honesty. Morally he is one of the eleanest men I ever knew. 1 am a Democrat, but will vote for him be- cause I know he is honest.” These expressions come virtually spontaneously from the people of Hol- lidaysburg, where J. Lee Plummer, the eandidate for state treasurer, re- sides. They form a tribute which em- phasizes his true worth and character. DISGRUNTLED COMBINE Leading Men In Lincoln Party Were Turned Dowa For Office. ARE NOW OUT FOR REVENGE Republican Chairman Andrews Re- ceives Reports That Show Party Wreckers Will Be Routed. [Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia, Sept. 19. There has been a clearing of the po- litical atmosphere in the last few days. The Republican managers have every reason to be elated over recent devel- opments. The substitution of an en- tire new set of 1ocal Republican candi- dates, after the voluntary withdrawal of the original nominees in the interest of party harmony has had a far-reach- ing influence toward cementing and strengthening the Republican forces in this city. The selection of Dr. Neff, a promi- nent member of the Union League and medical director of the Jefferson Hos- pital, for sheriff, the renomination of Coroner Dugan, in response to the re- quest of many citizens, the naming of William Emsley, an ex-department commander of the Grand Army, and Howard A. Chase, another leading member of the Union League for com- missioners, has given the Republicans a ticket of which they may well be proud. Steps will be immediately taken for an aggressive local campaign, and there is no doubt of the election of the entire Republican ticket by a large majority. Disappointed Office-Seekers. From the interior counties Chairman Wesley R. Andrews, of the Republican state committee continues to receive the most gratifying reports. The so-called Lincoln party has been demonstrated to be little more than a combination of office-seekers. Their of- forts to draw votes from the Republican ticket will not have substantial results. An idea of the character of the men in the mov-ment may be formed from the fact that H. C. Niles, of York, who figures as state chairman, was twice defeated for the Republican nomina- tion for superior judge. When he pre- sented resolutions in the York county convention in line with the platform of the Lincoln party he got but three votes in favor of them, and ome of these votes was his own. George E. Mapes, the secretary, has been voting against Republican candidates for years. For- mer Senator Emery, of McKean, was defeated by the Republicans when he ran as an independent candidate for congress, and he has never forgotten or forgiven the leaders of the Republi- can organi~ation who defeated him. He is out for revenge. Charles Heber Clark, of Montgomery, who presided over the Lincoln party convention, is disgruntled because President Roose- velt declined to appoint him to a po- sition in the department of commerce and labor. Clark has been fighting the Republican party for years. He is a pronounced free silverite. Former Con- gressman Brumm, of Schuylkill, an- other conspicuous figure among the Lincolnites, has a record as an original Greenbacker. He was an applicant for position under McKinley and Roosevelt and was turned down. He now, too, wants to reform the Republican party. Former Congressman Threpp, of Bedford county, who was chairman of the committee on resolutions of the Lincoln party, is a disappointed and disgruntled office - seeker. He was turned down for re-election to congress by the Republicans of his district, and he has ever since been working against Republican nominees, but he has no following at home. These are but a few of the men who are running the Lincoln party. Their only hope for recognition in the future line lies in the disruption of the Re- publican party. The loyal Republicans of Pennsylva- nia will not permit them to succeed in their party-wrecking campaign. They will snow them under in am Bvalanche of Republican ballots in No- vember.

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 in it. The pictures have sold like “hot cakes” here, and a limited number have been placed with Tue STAR to supply those at a distance, who may desire 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.

Twenty-third Street is the most pop- ular terminal of the great metropolis because of its convenience to the hotel, theatre and shopping district. In the recent remodeling of the terminal building a glass roofed canopy was constructed fifty feet wide, under which the cross-town cars of 14th, 23rd, 28th and 29th Street lines pass, so that passengers are protected from the weather leaving the ferry house, and also avoid the annoyance of street traffic. All baggage destined to New York City will be delivered to 23rd Street unless distinctly marked “Liberty Street,” or otherwise. A complete electric cab service has also been established for the transpor- tation of passengers and baggage at very reasonable rates. The importance. of 23rd Street is most graphically brougkt to attention in the August number of the “Book of the Royal Blue” published by the Passen- ger Department of the Baltimore & Ohio, under the title “Into the Heart of Gotham.” The interest centers within a mile radius of 23rd Street, Fifth Avenue and Broadway.

At a recent editorial convention ga minister offered the following toast: To save an editor from starvation, take his paper and pay for it promptly. To save him from bankruptcy, adver- tise in his paper liberally. To save him from despair, send him every item of news of which you can get hold. To save him from profanity, write your correspondence plainly on one side of the sheet and send it “in as early as possible. To save him from mistakes, bury him. Dead people are the only ones who never make mistakes. This minister evidently knew a lot of things both in and out of the gospel books. His Christianity is practieal and more nearly perfect than all the | creeds in Christendom, says the Con- nellsville Courier, ¥
