George Livengood, alias “Hawney,” caught 33 trout in Tub Mill run, one day last week. “Hawney” says Tub Mill has lots of trout in it yet, but most of them are too small to take a hook, and “Hawney” seldom brings a trout home under two feet long.

Prominent citizens of Frostburg of Welsh birth have been advised of a visit to this country not later than Sep- tember of a male chorus of probably 40 voices from Rhondda Valley, Wales. All are artists, traveling in Eurpe under leadership of Vocal Director, William Thomas. They have enjoyed the honor of appearing before King Edward four times, three at his invitation. Their United States itinerary will include Frostburg.—Frostburg Journal.

Mr. McPherson had been put to considerable’ loss by chicken thieves, and gave out that the canine was a terror. On Sunday night the thieves visited his farm and stole all of the chickens they had previously overlooked, and stole the dog besides.— Oil City Derrick. E3Bob Burdette says that the good things in this world are always the cheapest. Spring wheat costs less than corn whiskey ; a box of cigars costs as much as two or three bibles; a gallon of old brandy costs more than a barrel of flour; a full hand in poker costs a man in twenty seconds more than his church subscription amounts to in three years; a town election costs more than a revival of religion ; people sleep half an hour in church free, but a nap on a Pullman costs $1.50 to $2.00. You can see the poison Pine-ules clears out of the kidneys and bladder. A single dose at bedtime will show you more poison upon rising the next morn- ing than can be expelled from the sys- tem in any other way. Pine-ules dis- solve the impurities, lubricate the kid- neys, cleanse the bladder, relieve pain and do away with back-ache speedily, pleasantly, permanently. Sold by Elk Lick Pharmacy. 9-1 Mrs. Wm. C. Livengood died of cancer of the stomach, last Saturday, at her home near Springs postoffice, Elk Lick township. Deceased was aged 64 years, and she was a daughter of the late Peter Wagner, who is yet well remem- bered by most of our older citizens. Mrs. Livengood is survived by her hus- band and a number of children, also by several brothers and sisters. * The fu- neral service was held at the Springs Mennonite church, last Sunday after- noon, Rev. G. D. Miller officiating. We have received a copy of a Home- stead paper with some articles by Cy- clone Kirkland marked. In one of them he claims to have foretold the San Francisco disaster. If he would do a little foretellin’ on our crops it would interest us more. We would like to know if the corn will have two ears to the stalk. and whether we will beat Alf. Atkinson and John Gibson with the first ripe tomato. If Cy. Kirk. will solve these problems we’ll support his ticket, all right.—Freeport Journal. A hundred years ago the best phy- gician would give you a medicine for your heart without stopping to consider whet effect it might have on the liver. Even to this good day cough. and cold medicines invariably bind the bowels. This is wrong. Bee’s Laxative Cough Syrup with Honey and Tar acts on the bowels—drives out the cold—clears the head, relieves all coughs, cleanses and strengthens the mucous membranes of the throat, chest, lungs and bronchial tubes.

Beerits, of Somerset, was recently announced at a special dinner given by Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Brydon, at their beautiful home in Frostburg, Md., to Miss Beerits and a number of her Frostburg and Somerset friends. The betrothed are among the most popular and highly esteemed young people in Somerset, and the hap- PY event that will make them man and wife will be a fall event. George Rees and Frank Hartline, who enlisted in the U. 8. marine ser- vice several years ago, returned home last week on a 15-day furlough. Young Reese informed us that he has about all of the Marine service he cares for, and that as soon as his term of enlist- ment expires he will know better than to enlist again. Aside from seeing a big lot of the world, most young men are not much in love with the life of a marine. Rees says he was in the Phil- ippines 81 months, and if you ask him he will tell you that those islands are no Ged’ country like this. The cabin in which Abraham Lincoln was born, passed through Johnstown, Saturday afternoon, on its way back to Kentucky, to take its place on the very site it stood when the martyred presi- dent first blinked his baby eyes at the light of day. The cabin was recently purchased from the hands of specula- tors by the Lincoln Farm Association, which some time ago bought the old Lincoln farm at public sale, and is con- verting it into a park. A special car, elaborately decorated, is carrying the cabin, and everywhere it is being re- ceived with great interest.—Johnstown Democrat. “Go home and take those bathing suits off. This is no bathing resort.” Rev. George M. Schoener, pastor of St. Cecelia’s Catholic church, Rochester, Pa., roared this from the pulpit at many of his fair hearers, recently, and the fashionable suburb of Pittsburg is in spasms over it. Father Schoener was speaking of the “Peekaboo” shirtwaists which many of the fashionable ladies of the congregation were wearing that warm day. “The church of God is no place for an unseemly display of gayety clothing and those queer shirtwaists,” continued the man of God, and the women left the church hurriedly after the service was concluded. Abraham Peck, a well known citizen of Somerset county, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Geo. E. Reitz, near Listie, Pa.,, on the 9th inst. He was a son of the late John Peck, who for years resided in Addison township, about a mile from the famous “Big Spring.” Abraham Peck, like all the other members of the John Peck family, was a person of true worth and ster- ling integrity, respected by all who knew him. For a number of years prior to his death he suffered with a complication of ailments, and at the time of his death he was in his 63d year. He issurvived by his wife and one daughter. Deceased was a faithful and consistent member of the German Baptist Brethren church. Meat ~ dima... Market! me. SETHE.
