Ix Norway saloons close on paydays and savings banks are open until mid- night. That is the law in Norway, and it is a very good law. rt Aree Ir is wonderful how men change. To-day we have the spectacle of Demo- cratic politicians refering to Lincoln and McKinley as the sages of their school. Of course, it is always safe to appeal to the cemeteries. They don’t speak back. But what did Democrats say of these sages when they were alive? Do you recall any of the bou- quets of praises for the policies of these men?—Ex THE poor, old, whining Somerset Herald has the political “jimjams” worse than ever, this week, and it be- rates the Democratic party organiza- tion of Somerset county at an awful rate for refusing to help the Scull ma- chine to pull its individual chestnuts out of the fire. It would be a real nice thing for “Timmie” and “Bobbie” if they could only perzuade the Demo- cratic party to make a catspaw of itself for the benefit of the defunct Seull ma- chine, but the Democratic party has not yet sunk to such a low level as that. It is a sad spectacle to behold the Som- erset Herald, the once proud exponent and beneficiary of Stalwart Republi- canism, pleading and begging for fusion with the Democrats, the enemies of everything that savors of Republican- ism. And oh, how pathetic it is to see the poor old Scull family organ wail, howl and squall because even the Dem- ocrats spurn the overtures of a gang so foul, so corrupt, so rotten! But rumor has it that “Timmie” and “Bobbie” have both been bitten by Col. “Edwise” Wer- ner’s court house anaconda, hence not responsible for their after-election rav- ing. Col. *“Edwie” should keep the monster shut up. A LIQUID COLD CURE.

One of the quickest and surest meth- ods to get a boy into the reform school or penitentiary is for the parents to up- hold him in his deviltry in the school room. Probably no other influence is equal to that of hie parents in helping him from bad to worse. On the other hand, the parents are equally as influ- ential when co-operating with the teacher in bringing about good results. We have in mind two or three cases not a thousand miles from here that bear us out in these statements, says Zibe Landers, of the Ogle County Re- publican. Whenever you hear a person say that the teacher has it in for his chil- dren, and that they were unjustly pun- ished for nothing, you can make up your mind that there is another side of the story. There is no class of people so patient and agreeable as the teach- ers in our schools. They exert every effort, day after day, for the good of the children under their charge, and when they are not successful it is gen- erally due to poisonous influences, in- fluences instilled in their young lives in the home. From ourexperience and observation we believe that whenever a child gets a flogging in the school room it is justly merited, and more, tco. Teachers do not punish their pu- pils for amusement, but do it because their patience has been taxed beyond endurance, and they are driven almost to desperation. If you want to save your boy from ultimate ruin, do not up- hold him in wrong-doing in the school room. To Abolish County. The DuBois Courier is responsible for a story to the effect that there isa strong sentiment in Tionesta and some other places 1n Forest county in favor of abolishing the county organization— in short, permitting the county to be apportioned among its neighbors. The trouble, as explained by the Courier, is the loss of population since the lumber and oil interests have declined. NATURE NEEDS BUT LITTLE. Nature needs only a Little Early Riser now and then to keep the bowels clean, the liver active, and the system free from bile, headaches, constipation, etc. The famous little pills “Early Risers” are pleasant in effect and per- fect in action. They never gripe or sicken, but tone and strengthen the SALISBURY. ELK LICK POSTOFFICE, PA. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16. 1905. THE SIN OF INGRATITUDE. Failed to Use Republican Organiza- tion and Then Had Correspond- ence Published. The Scull gang, which managed the Orphans’ campaign, floundered about grasping at anything, like a drowning ' man would to save himself. This was illustrated many times in the recent campaign, and the following letter printed in Sunday’s North American is a sample. The letter is a reply to Thomas G. Ringler, who circulated a petition to have the terminus of a rural free delivery route from Shade township at Kantner. Other parties were trying to have the terminus at Stoyestown, and Mr. Ringler elicited the aid of J. A. Berkey in the matter. Mr. Berkey assisted in the preparation of the petition, etc., and while he was at work on it he noticed that Mr. Ring- ler had signed the Orphans’ certificate of nomination. He then wrote him as follows: “19th October, 1905. “Dear Sir—I have your letter sent me by Mr. Josiah Specht. . The same day 1 looked over the Orphans’ party nomi- nation papers and found you among its signers. “In this country every man has a right to do as he pleases, but you have attempted to use the influence of the Republican party in Somerset county, through me and others, who are known as taking an interest in the welfare of the Republican party, and you have en- deavored to use the Republican Con- gressman to further your personal in- terests, and, at the same .time, you have had a knife in your hand, attempt- ing to relieve the party of its vitality. “I have no quarrel with you as to what you have done, other than to say that the sin of ingratitude is the blacke est known to mankind. Yours truly, “J. A. BERKEY.” It will be noticed that Mr. Berkey did not deny the right of Mr. Ringler or any other man to support any ticket, and that he told him he had no quar- rel with him for joining the Orphans’ party, but he gave him to understand plainly that he should look to his po- litical friends for any favors.—Somerset Standard. aw Some Election Observations Made By the Somerset Standard. The Orphans will continue to lead the simple life. Werner made a speech at Berlin, and John R. Boose got the majority of votes. If it is able, will the Herald please sit up and take notice of the handsome majorities given the Republican can- didates? The youthful candidate who went over the county falsely telling the voters that ex-Chairman Shafer assess- ed him three hundred dollare to defray the expenses of the last primary elec- tion will have time to reflect. The time has not yet come for Som- erset county voters to put the stamp of approval on bolting nominations and pledge-breaking. Messrs. Ankeny, Wagner, Werner and Walker ran less votes at Tuesday’s election than they did at the primary election. Chairman Lowry, of the Orphans’ party, who has made unsuccessful ef- forts to have the Republican party elect him Prothonotary, District At- torney, Representative to the Assem- bly, and other positions “too numerous to mention,” says his Orphans’ party was forced into the political arena, and that it means to stay. The Orphans’ candidates denounced through the newspapers the use of cards with the slate printed thereon, and the use of beer, boodle and booze. But there is abundant evidence at hand that some, if not all of them were guilty of all these practices. At Con- fluence, circulars destined to injure the Republican ticket were circulated in violation of law, and at other points the Orphans’ slate was freely distrib- uted. The Berlin Gleaner, one of the news- papers that worked under political or- ders and used ready-prepared political matter, tried a little originality in a six-line item and attempted to direct voters how to “cut the Republican ticket” by placing a X after the word Citizens. All persons who did so voted for the Republican candidates on the State ticket, and for no county ticket. EVERY OUNCE YOU EAT. Every ounce of food you eat that fails to digest does a pound of harm.

Two Salisbury Young Men Killed by Gas Explosion. Just as we go to press a message reaches Salisbury telling of the sudden death of George Wagner and Frank Newman, two well known joung men of this town, one the second son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Wagner, the other the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Asa B. Newman. The young men met their death in a gas explosion which occurred yesterday in a shaft at Bentleyville, Washington county, Pa., where they had been work- ing. According to a later report, four other men were injured, and eight in all killed. We ean give no further particulars at this time, but it is likely that the two bodies will arrive here about tomorrow, for burial. BUT FEW ARE FREE. But few people are entirely free from indigestion at this season of the year. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is not only the best remedy to use because it digests what you eat, but because it also enables the digestive apparatus to as- similate and transform all foods into tissue-building ‘blood. Kodol relieves sour stomach, heart burn, belching, and all forms of Indigestion. Sold by E. H. Miller. 12-1 Oh, The B. & 0! We have no special thing to say in favor of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company or against it. The company is in business for business, just like all of us. But some men, as soon ss they bob up for a public position, seem to think that the first thing to do is to oppose the B.& O., as if the B. & O. were some terrible evil passing through the country. Take the B. & O. pay day out of Maryland, and many people would suck dry bones. Where is the sense in all the prejudice against the B. & 0.? True, it is a corporation, but one man can’t conduet such a business. If one man did, the prejudice would be against him.—Cumberland Courier.

Don’t try to flag down the first good-looking stran- ger that gets off the train in your town. If he’s got any sense, he’ll despise you for it. A man never wants to marry a girl that will flirt with him. A man that is worth having won’t marry a girl he has caught at the end of =a handkerchief or other kind of a flirta- tion. Any girl can catch a fool, but it takes a wise, sweet girl to catch a man. When a good-looking. well-dressed man gets off the train or drives into a town, there are always some girls who think they will die if they don’t get ac- quainted with him quick, and are not willing to wait for the proper kind of an acquaintance, but begin to flag him down. and the girl who attracts the at- tention of a stranger by any kind of signs, lowers herself in his estimation, and she will never live long enough to live it down. When a young man be- gins looking for a wife it is not the flirt or “fresh” girl that he wants, for he is sure to find out all the good qualities of the girl that is worth marrying. Be quiet and ladylike, don’t fear, you won’t be overlooked in the grand round-up by the: man who is worthy of a good, pure girl. Fathers and moth- ers, if you don’t want your girl left on your hands like a bunch of excess bag- gage, look to it that she makes the right kind of acquaintances in the right way.—Rochelle Register. MAN’S UNREASONABLENESS iz often as great as woman’s. But Thos. S. Austin, Mgr. of the “Republi- can,” of Leavenworth, Ind., was not un- reasonable, when he refused to allow the doctors to operate on his wife, for female trouble, “Instead,” he says, “we concluded to try Electric Bitters. My wife was then so sick, she could hardly leave her bed, and five (5) physicians had failed to relieve her. After taking Electric Bitters, was perfectly cured, and can now perform all her she perfect digestant. It digests the food regardless of the condition of the | stomach.
