We have not fully learned the nature of the accident, but it is not of a serious nature, though very painful. Read the many business locals in this issue. They will tell you of good goods, good values, good stores and good people to deal with. It always pays to deal with the liberal and up-to- date merchants who advertise, because they have up-to-date goods. The children’s jubilee of good health follows the use of Bee’s Laxative Honey and Tar, the cough syrup that expels all cold from the system by acting as a cathartic on the bowels.

Clind, bleeding, itching and protrud- ing piles are instantly relieved by Man- Zan. This remedy is put up in collap- sible tubes with nozzle attachment, so that the medicine may be applied in- side directly where the trouble origi- nates. ManZan relieves instantly. Sold by Elk Lick Pharmacy. 3-1 A visit to the West Salisbury hotel, last week, eonvinces us that the new proprietor, Mr. Chas. Paschke, is: the right man in the right -place. Every- thing about the place is neat, clean and orderly, and the bar, which is presided over by James Conley, seems to be conducted in a very careful and orderly manner. The liberal, progressive, up-to-date merchants who advertise do not believe in hiding their light under a bushel. Some merchants, however, believe in the bushel act, but most of those who follow the non-advertising, mossback plan of doing business could easily hide all the light under a thimble that they make in a community. A Johnstown preacher ~topped at a farm house and arked for a meal. The farmer understood that the visitor was a Methodist preacher, and called to his son to go and kill a chicken. A mo- ment later the farmer found that the visitor was a Baptist preacher, so he called to his son, “Don’t kiil a chicken; kill a duck.” The mission of “Early Risers” is to clear the way and give Nature full sway. These famous little pills rid the stomach and bowels of all putrid mat- ter, thus removing the causes of head- ache, constipation, sallow complexion, etc. DeWitt’s Little Early Risers never gripe or sicken. A safe, pleasant, per- fect pill. Sold by E. H. Milter. 1-1 A daughter was recently born to a couple by the name of Klock, residing down in Kentucky. A coincidence of the little miss is that her birth oceur- red on the ninth day of the ninth month of 1805, at nine o'clock in the morning, and she weighed nine pounds. An exchange remarks that the young lady should be christened Nino Klock. Business men are continually watch- ing for bright, honest boys, and boys often make a good or bad impression when they do not know théy are being watched. It would be an dasy matter to guess what kind of an impression a boy with a cigarette between his lips would make. The shrewd merchant of today would never choose him, says an exchange: It is a sin to suffer with backache and pains over the Kidneys, when a single dose of Pineules will give re- lief in one night. Suffering women should heed these warnings ere it is too late. Female troubles may result. Pineules will strengthen the Kidneys and bladder, clense the blood and re- lieve the aches and pains of Neuralgia and Rheumatism.

Two cars of lumber loaded by Jennings Bros. were derailed, and while the lumber was much scattered about, the damage was very slight to both cars and contents, and no person was hurt. The wreck was caused by a broken wheel. A man recently went into s Cum- berland restaurant, and after a little deliberation, asked the waiter for “a plate of fly specks.” The waiter ze- ported the request to the proprietor, whereupon the latter approached and informed him that they did not serve fly specks. “Then,” said the man, “why don’t you take them off the bill of fare?” Since then the old summer bills have been laid away. Now is the time to guard the health and strength of the lungs. The best remedy to use for coughs and colds is Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar. The only cough syrup that does not consti- pate the bowels, but which onthe other hand, expels all cold from fhe system by acting as a pleasant laxative. Best for coughs, colds, eroup, whooping cough, ete. Sold by Elk Lick Phar- macy. 3-1 Ex-Burgess Wm. H. Welfley, of Som- erset, was in town over Sunday. He missed the non-electric ac Meyersdale, Saturday evening, and had to pay =a stiff price to a liveryman to bring him to Salisbury. We won’t say that “Ju- linus” swore when he missed the hack, but we’ll bet he felt like the Dutch- man’s boy who was smarting under his father’s whip. He thought “d—n,” at least the father accused the boy of thinking that, and then he whipped him again, A story is told of a school teacher who was trying to give her pupils a definite idea of a volcano. With red chalk she drew on the blackboard fiery flames issuing from a mountain top. When the drawing was done, she turn- ed to the class before her, and said, “Can any of you tell me what that looks like?” Oneboy immediately held up his hand, and the teacher said, “Well, Joey, you may tell us” “It looks like hell, ma’am,” replied Joey, with startling promptness. Don’t throw potato parings into the garbage box, but into the stove, and thereby save yourself the annoyance of having to call out the fire depart- ment to put out a chimney fire. The burning of potato parings prevents the gathering of soot. A man who is keep- ing up a strong fire in his range every day during the winter, says you can never find a trace of soot on the lids, the bottom of kettles, or any part of the stove if potato parings are burned daily.—Lanark (Ill.) Gazette. Our old friend and schoolmate, L. A. Maust, the genial B. & O. station agent of Garrett, Pa., was a welcome caller at Tue Star office, yesterday, in company with his nephew who clerks in Miller’s drug store. Leonard is just recovering from a seige ot typhoid fever, and he came up this way to visit friends and relatives a few days in the Springs set- tlement. We greatly enjoyed talking over the good old days of yore, and our latchstring is always out for our old schoolmates and college chums. Em—— yo —— TORTURE OF A PREACHER. The story of the torture of Rev. O. D. Moore, pastor of the Baptist church, of Harpersville, N. Y., will interest you. He says: “I suffered agonies, because of a persistent cough, resulting from the grip. I had to sleep sitting up in bed. I tried many remedies, without relief, until I took Dr. King’s New Dis- covery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, which entirely cured my cough, and saved me from consumption.” A grand cure for diseased conditions of Throat and Lungs.

The desire of many persons to inspect our new jail has led the County Com- missioners to arrange for such an in- spection to be held after the contract- ors have turned the property over to the county, which will be after Dec. 15, and at that time the building will be thrown open for a couple of days in which the public may call and see the workings of a modern house of con- finement with all the latest locking de- vices. The force of iron and steel workers are working night and day shift in order to have the building complete in good time, and their work is progressing rapidly. —Oakland Jour- nal. Pretty Thanksgiving Wedding. On the evening of Thanksgiving Day, at 6:30 o'clock, Mr. Jacob H. Robinson and Miss Nora Edith Blocher, both of Salisbury, were married at the hothe of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Albert | Blocher, on Union street. The ceremony was performed by Rev. T. 8. Fike, of the German Baptist Brethren church, after which the guosts partook of a bountiful supper. The bride was married in a very pretty tan silk dress, and Mr. Albert Robinson and Miss Bella Alexander acted as “best man” and bridesmaid, respectively. Misses Carrie MeDon- nell, Florence Keim, Helen Alexander and Bessie Meese were waiters. The couple received many handsome and useful presents, and TeHER STAR joins their many friends in extending congratulations and best wishes. Both bride and groom are well and favorably known in Salisbury. They are excellent young people and will make their home here.
