C. B. Dickey has moved onto the M.
J. Beachy farm, which he purchased
recently from John M. Wright. One of
the first things he did after coming

Tre STAr’s subscription list, and that’s
what about all good citizens do. Mr.
Dickey seems to be a very nice man,
and we're glad to have him for a neigh-
bor.
Several typographical errors appear-
ed in the advertisements of Hay’s De-
partment Store, H. C. Shaw and 8. P,
Young, last week. They are all cor-
rected in this issue, but as our atten-
tion was called to them by nearly
every person we met during the past
few days, it is very plain that the peo-
ple read the advertisements in Tue
STAR.
“Mistah Edgah Showaltah” and fami-
ly moved to Meyersdale or that vicin-
ity, Tuesday. “Mistah Edgar” is very
absent-minded, or rather very minus-
minded, and, of course, he forgot to
settle what he owes at Tue STAR office
and numerous other places about town,
before leaving. “Mistah Edgah” is a
first rate man for all people to deal
with on a strictly cash basis.
Living indoors so much during the

and give the blood a chance to purify
itself. They relieve headache, sallow

This is a secret intended for employ-
ing farmers and not to be told to the
“hands” under any circumstances. Out
at Youngstown, Ohio, a farmer noticed
that one of his men was getting a “jag”
with great regularity, and finally the
farmer laid a scheme to learn where tke
liquor came from. He then learned
that the farm hand had been drawing
the juice from the ensilage prepared
for the cattle, which is said to give the
same effect as that produced by high-
macy. 6-1
balls, says an exchange.
A portion of Salisbury presented an
appearance about like the smoke dis-
trict in Pittsburg, Monday afternoon.
Coming up Ord street while we were
wide awake and perfectly sober, we
couldn’t see more than about 100 feet.
We couldn’t imagine what caused all
the smoke until we walked far enough
to recognize the dim outlines of our old
friend and college chum, John Pacer
Vogel, enjoying a quiet smoke with a
pipe of massive proportions filled with
toboceco of the strength of Samson.
A liquid cold cure for children that is
pleasant. and effective is
Bee’s Laxative Honey and Tar. Super-
ior to all other cough syrups or cold
remedies because it acts on the bowels.
An ideal remedy for Coughs, Colds,
Croup, Whooping Cough and all curable
lung and bronchial affections in child
or adult. Pleasant to take. Sold by
Elk Lick Pharmacy. 8-1
Last Thursday evening Albert Lowry
was surprised by the gathering of a
large number of his friends at his home
on Gay street. It was a birthday sur-
prise in honor of his 47th anniversary,
Friends to the number of several dozen
were present, and Mr. Lowry was the
recipient of some useful presents. It
is needless to say that the guests were
splendidly entertained, and all depart-
ed wishing the host many more years
of happiness and usefulness. It was a
very pleasant affair, and was greatly
enjoyed by all persons concerned.
The tar that is contained in Bee’s
Laxative Honey and Tar is harmless.
It is not coal tar, but is obtained from
the pine trees of our own native forests.
Bee’s Laxative Honey and Tar is the
best remedy for colds because it acts
on the bowels—thus expelling all colds
from the system. Bee’s is the original
Laxative Honey and Tar, and is best
for coughs, colds, croup, whooping
cough, lung and bronchial affections.

Last Thursday the editor of this pa-
per was agreeably surprised by James
Mahaffey, of Salmon, Idaho, who step-
ped into THE Star office and asked for
work. We didn’t recognize Mr. Ma-
haffey at first, but felt sure that he
wasn’t looking for a job, for he didn’t
have the appearance of a tramp printer.
When he asked whether we ever knew
“Jim” Mabaffey, we recognized him at
once as a former employe who used to
work for us on the Carleton (Neb.)
Times. That settled it, and to keep
from getting a good “licking” if he re-
fused, James consented to remain over
Sunday. It was a source of great
pleasure and much satisfaction to talk
over old times and scenes in the west,
and we enjoyed the visit very much.
So much, in fact, that we could hardly
keep the tears back when we bade our
old friend and employe goodbye. Mr.
Mahaffey is interested in a group of
gold mines in Idaho, and he came east
recently to confer with other interested
persons who reside in Philadelphia.
He is prospering nicely in the far west,
but was much pleased with our town
and state. He returns thanks to S. A.
Beachy and James Maust for courtasies
extended at their sugar camps, and to
John Rees for showing him through
Tub Mill mines. Now he knows how
Klk Lick coal is mined, also how maple
sugar is made. He took 50 pounds of
the latter with him. Here’s hoping
we'll meet again, “Jimmie.”
harmless,
A dose of Pine-ules at bed time will
usually relieve backache, before morn-
ing. These beautiful little globules are
soft gelatine coated, and when moisten-
ed and placed in the mouth you can’t
keep from swallowing them. Pine=ules
contain neither sugar nor alcohol—just
gums and resins obtained from our own
native pine forests, combined with
other well known bladder, kidney,
blood and backache remedies. Sold by
Elk Lick Pharmacy. = = Ga}
