If you are suffering from
impure blood, thin blood, de-
bility, nervousness, exhaus-
tion, you should begin at once
with Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, the
Sarsaparilla you have known
all your life. Your doctor
knowsit,too. Askhimaboutit.
You must look well after the condition of
your liver and bowels. Unless there is dally
action of the bowels, poisonous products are
absorbed, causing headache, biliousnéss, nau-
sea, dyspepsia, and thus preventing the Sar-
om doing its best work. Ay:

Mr. E. D. Miller, who has been men-
tioned in these columns as a candidate
for representative in Congress from
this district, was in town Monday
greeting his old friends and making
many new ones. Mr. Miller is proving
a most formidable candidate, and
everything looks most promising for
his hearty indorsement by the Repub-
lican primaries May 26.—Quemahon-
ing Sentinel.
This is the last week of the Republi-
can primary campaign, and THE STAR
is heartjly glad of it. The candidates
drew liberally on our space during the
past few weeks to advertise their can-
didacy, but next week we can once
more drop politics and devote more
space to local and general news, and
restore some valuable features of the
“Twinkler” that we had to abandon
during the campaign.
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. 6-1
A water plant will be one of Stoyes-
town’s improvements, this summer,
and the company putting it in recently
struck a strong stream of water by
drilling at a point about 150 feet above
the center of the town. The company
and the town are both in great luck.
Now, let Salisbury get a move on and
put in a water plant. Old Meadow
Mountain is so full of water that it is
almost a mountain of water. There is
little doubt that a well drilled almost
anywhere on top of Meadow Mountain
would bring forth a stream of water
large enough to water a town twice as
big as Salisbury.
A GOOD COMPLEXION.
A good complexion is impossible
with the stomach out of order. If
pasty, sallow people would pay more at-
tention to their stomachs and less to
the skin on their faces, they would have
better complexions. KODOL FOR
DYSPEPSIA will digest what you eat
and put your stomach back in right
shape to do its own work. Kodol re-
lieves palpitation of the heart, flatu
lence, sour stomach, heart burn, etc

Another Pipe Line Heading This
Rights of way are being bought
through this locality for anorher pipe
line. It isn’t the Standard Oil Co.. this
time, but a company known as the Su-
perior Oil Company, we are informed.
The new line will parallel the Standard
line, and when the time comes for the
trenching and laying of pipe, it will
bring much activity and money into
Salisbury and vicinity.
Kendalls Acquire Big Timber Tract
in Garrett County, Md.
The Mackie Lumber Co., incorporat-
ed, of Piedment. W. Va., recently closed
a sale to the Kendall Lumber Co., of
Pittsburg, Pa., now the largest opera-
tors in Garretc county, of the timber
rights only to 800 acres of land situated
on “Yough” river, about seven miles
from Oakland, between Oakland and
Kendall, in Garrett county, for $10,000.
The Mackie Lumber Co., reserved
the surface rights, as well as the miner-
al rights to this land, which is under-
laid with three veins of excellent coal.
There is no doubt that a railroad will
be constructed in the near future up
“Yough” river to connect with the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad at Oakland,
Md. This land was formerly the prop-
eriy of Taylor and John Sinee, and is
covered with excellent timber, mostly
hardwood, and the Kendall railroad, a
narrow gauge branch of the Confluence
& Oakland, extends nearly to the tract.
POSTMASTER ROBBED.
G. W. Fouts, Postmaster at Riverton,
Ia., nearly lost his life and was robbed
of all comfort, according to his letter,
which says: “For 20 years I had
chronic liver complaint, which led to
such a severe case of jaundice that
even my finger nails turned yellow;
when my doctor prescribed Electric
Bitters ; which cured me and have kept
me well for eleven years.” Sure cure
for Biliousness, Neuralgia, Weakness
and all Stomach, Liver, Kidney and
Bladder derangements. A wonderful
Tonic. At E. H. Miller's drug store.

Of Importance to Fruit Growers.
Prof. H. A. Surface, State Economic
Zoologist, in referring to the probable
appearance of the seventeen-year lo-
cust in Pennsylvania, this year, says
they will be particularly destructive to
young trees. He further says: As
prevention in this case is very much
better than remedy, it is best not to
trim trees until after the locusts depos-
it their eggs in June, and prospective
planters should refrain from planting
trees, this spring, on soil where trees or
bushes were growing seventeen years
ago, or which adjoins land that is now
in forest or was covered with woodland
in 1889. Choice trees or shrubs should
be covered with netting to prevent ipn-
jury by the female locust.

Another Big Lumber Deal.
This seems to be the age of big lum-
ber deals. Several of our exchanges
give the following as one of the recent
big deals:
The Anderson Lumber Company,
which has been operating a large tract
of timber land in Black, Elk Lick and
Addison townships, last week secured
an additional six thousand acres. ad-
joining the Somerset county tract and
extending into Garrett county, Mary-
land.
The principal stockholders of this
company are W. B. Dibert of Johns-
town, H. T. Newell of Pittsburg, and
James B. Anderson of Somerset. The
company has a five-year contract with
the Westinghouse Company, of Pitts-
burg, to furnish 25,000 feet of lumber
daily, and it has been operating a large
mill at Pinkerton for more than a year.
They expect to peel one thousand cords
of bark next summer.
The new tract acquired by this com-
pany consists of hemlock, pine and oak,
and work in cutting it will start im-
mediately. It has been decided to
operate four mills, and employment
will be given to a large force of men.
A BAD BURN.
For a painful burn there is nothing
like DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. There
are a host of imitations of DeWitt’s
Witch Hazel Salve on the market—see
that you get the genuine. Ask for De-
Witt’s. Good, too, for sunburn, cuts,
bruises, and especially recommended
for piles. The name E. C. DeWitt &
Co., Chicago, is on every box. Sold by
E. H. Miller. 6-1
The Innocent Bystander.
When a riot is suppressed by officers
of the peace using any extreme meas-
ures the resistance of rioters makes
necessary, complaint is always heard
that some “innocent bystander” has
been shot. At a riot there are no “in-
nocent bystanders” in the eye of the
law. This is the declaration of the
courts of this State, made more than
sixty years ago. Said the Supreme
Court of this State at a period when
riot endangered the peace of the Com-
conwealth :(—
“In case of a riot, all who are present
and not actively engaged in its sup-
pression are, in contemplation of law,
participants ; passive conduct may be
construed as an acquiescence in the
offense, if not an approbation of it and
a presumption of guilt may be drawn
if not explained by other circum-
stances.”
When a riot comes the good citizen
who stays ceases to be a good citizen
unless he is suppressing the riot. He
cannot be an “innocent bystander.”
He must aid thelaw in suppressing riot
or separate himself from those who are
rioters. If he stays and is shot, he has
only himself to thank.—Philadelphia
Press.
A LAZY LIVER.
A torpid, inactive liver can produce
more bodily ills than almost any thing
else. [Itis good to clean the system
out occasionally. Stir the liver up, and
get into shape generally. The best re-
sults are derived from the use of De-
Witt’s Little Early Rirers. Reliable,
effective, pleasant pills with a reputa-
sion, Never gripe. Sold by E. HM

MEMORIAL DAY DESECRATION.
It is snd, but true, that Memorial day
has lost its significance in most of the
towns and villages of our great country.
The G. A. R. is protesting, and justly,
too, against the way Memorial day is
observed in most places. In an able
article on this subject, the Detroit
News gets off the following, which
should set people to thinking and cause
them to govern themselves accordingly
on Memorial day:
May not the heroes, battle-slain; or
from their wounds of service, dead ; or,
from long marches, or disease, have
met in ghostly campfire on the other
side and delegated some to visit earth,
and in the silent midnight watches,
say:
“Qld comrades, do it not again! For
sake of blood we shed, and wounds we
bore, and legs we left on fields of strife ;
for armless sleeves we wore on earth
in after years; yea, for the sake of God
and native land, or land of our adop-
tion, forbear the celebration! Memor-
ial day! What isit now? A day of
games, cockfights and ball; of booze
and brawl and Bacchanalian mirth; a
day when we are most forgot by those
who most should have us in their
thought—the generation born and blest
since we fought and died—and died for
them.
“In God’s name let us rest!
“Let living comrades, with sweet
flowers, limp to our graves and strew
us o’er, and drop a tear. Brave boys
were they—soon to join us! Ah, griz-
zled heroes—see how they grow old!
“But make no gaudy day of loud dis-
play ; of speeches grand, and blare of
band, with marshal, aids, flags and a
long procession.
“Not Cicero, Demosthenes; not Wil-
liam Pitt nor Henry Clay; not ‘Hank’
nor William Alden Smith; nor Hamil-
ton, nor Townsend; not Gardner nor
even Loud, could tell our merits to the
crowd, ere half—nay, full three-fourths
—would race to reach the grand or
bleachers’ stand to note the game and
yell ‘good eye!’ or otherwise to view or
referee a fist fight, dog fight or a fowl
dispute. Mock not our shades with
crowds who care not why we fought, or
how, or when we died.
“A flower, a tear from comrades dear
who knew us best; then let us rest!”

ever came to town, at Hay’s Depart-
ment Store. Prices, 50c., 75¢. and $1.00.

Fine Testimonial from Boswell for
Hon. E. D. Miller.
The Sentinel hails with delight the
opportunity to support a man of excel- |g
lent ability, high character and ample
preciating his past excellent services
and superior qualifications, are plainly
the fact that he is not a resident of the
County-seat nor a ring politician. We
brought to bear upon Mr. E. D. Miller
by the plain people who knew him be-
fore he gave consent to become a can-
for represenlatiye in Cougress from
earnest, almost imperative.

public trust not to be doled out to pol-
upon it, but ought to find and fall upon

servant, that another, untried, shall
and share the honors only?
men’s souls, as was spoken in the crises
of desperate, bloody war, but surely
these are'times when the consciences
of men are being aroused to a sense of
the necessity of electing honest, capable
men to office, and especially to great
legislative positions, when mighty re-
forms must be planned and executed,
if we are long to preserve our National
honor and existence. In Mr. Ephraim
D. Miller. of Rockwood, we find this
high ideal of a candidate, and we shall
make no mistake when we cast our
votes for him for representative in
Congress, at the Republican primaries
on May 26, 1906.—Quemahoning Senti-

THE LINCOLN PARTY.
The ambition of the Lincoln party,
composed of a coterie of would-be
bosses posing as reformers, to nomi-
nate as their candidate Judge John
Stewart and compel the regular organ-
ization to accept him in order to avoid
a split in the party and the possibility
of defeat, has come to grief by reason
of the refusal of Judge Stewart to play
the part of the stalking horse.
Now there is talk of fusion between
the Lincolnites and the Democrats.
The cloven foot is revealed. The mot-
to of the Lincoln party seems to be
anything to beat the Republican party.
Colonel Guffey has declared against
any fusion that does not include a
Democrat at the head of the ticket.
Will the Lincoln party leaders enter
into a Democratic coalition on such
terms?
If they do, they will be politically
damned, now and forever, says the
Connellsville Courier, and every word
of it is true.

BRYDON RESIGNS.
Supt. Brydon of Somerset and Con-
solidation Coal Companies Ac-
cepts Position With the Davis
Coal and Coke Co.
Mr. J. C. Brydon the popular, and ef-
ficient general superintendent of the
Somerset and Consolidation Coal com-
panies, has resigned his position to ac-
cept the position of general manager of
the Davis Coal and Coke Co., of West
Virginia, and expects to take charge of
his new position about July 1st, next.
His headquarters will be at Cumber-
| land, Md.
Mr. Brydon is one of the shrewdest,
most energetic and honorable men we
ever knew, and it is with much regret
that those associated with him in the
coal fields of Somerset county will bid
him adieu.
Mr. F. R. Lyon is prominently men-
tioned as Mr. Brydon’s successor with
the Somerset Coal Co., for he, too, is a
man of signal ability in mining mat-
ters, and, furthermore, is a gentleman
of great popularity. Mr. Lyon is at
present assistant general superintend-
ent of the Somerset Coal Company.
