Livengood recently dis- covered a second crop of ripe raspber- ries on a bush in her garden. An Oec- tober crop of raspberries is somewhat of a rarity in this locality. Mrs. S. R. McKinley went to Pitts- burg, last week, to visit friends. Mrs. John W. Ringler and daughter Carmin accompanied her, and they also went to visit friends in the Smoky City. The first snowflakes of the season, in this locality, were noticed last Sunday, and yesterday enough snow fell to whiten the sidewalks. But we opine that we'll have lots of nice weather yet. Wm. Kretchman, who was seriously injured in a runaway accident, in Mil- ford township, recently, mention of which was made in last week’s STAR, is now believed to stand a fair show to recover.

C J. Lichty, of Davenport, Neb., was n caller at Tue Star office, Friday evening, accompanied by 8. P. Young.

Any camel will work seven days without drinking, while many’s the man who drinks seven days with- out working. If there’s anything in evolution, man descended from a goat, for he is the only creature who chews tobacco, eats anything, wears whiskers and butts in. When a horse is so overworked it lies down and in other ways declares its inability to go further, you would con- sider it criminal to use force. Many a man of humane impulses, who would not willingly harm a kitten, is guilty of cruelty where his own stomach is con- cerned.

Miller. 11-1 Henry Kidner, who was stricken with paralysis at the home of his sister, Mrs. Henry Kiester, near Somerset, last March, was brought to his home in Salisbury, last Sunday. His condition has improved considerably, but he is still quite helpless. He is glad to be at home again, and his many old-time friends are glad that he was able to stand the trip so well, and that it is now convenient for them to call to see him occasionally. When the tip of a dog’s nose is cold and moist, that dog is not sick. A fe- verish, dry nose means sickness with a dog. And so with the human lips.

It will soften and heal any skin ailment. Get a free. trial box, at our store, and be convine- ed. Large nickel capped glass jars, 25 cents.

My fee is $28.” Here he turned off the cur- rent and told the patient the examina- tion was over. “It’s all right, doctor,” said the patient, “but it seems to me that you have neglected an opportu- nity to secure ten cents and the other things you mentioned.” The new Pure Food and Drug Law will mark it on the label of every Cough Cure containing Opium, Chloro- form, or any other stupifying or poi- .sonous drug. But it passes Dr. Shoop’s Cough Cure as made for 20 years, en- tirely free. Dr. Shoop all along has bitterly opposed the use of all opiates or narcotics. Dr. Shoop’s Cough Cure is absolutely safe, even for the youngest babe—and it cures, it does not simply suppress. Get a safe and reliable Cough Cure, by simply insisting on having Dr. Shoop’s.

The bridge is on a pri- vate road, near the Pennsylvania and Maryland line, but wholly on the Mary- land side. It must be built by private subscriptions, and THE Star is glad to announce that the Standard Oil Com- pany has contributed $500 for its share towards a new bridge. The bridge is near the company’s pipe line, hence a great convenience to the company at times. at the sneeze stage.” Can you win?
