When asked why the roosters are for sale, Tom said: “The blamed things won’t erow.” : The Republican victory of last Tues- day is all the more glorious because the G. O. P. trounced the Democratic, Lin- coln, Commonwealth, Referendum, Un- ion Labor fusion aggregation all at once, and then didn’t need to do its best.

We have had very little time to devote to the paper, and as a result much important news and timely edito- rial comment must be held over until next week. Here is our condensed opinion of the Original Laxative Cough Syrup: “Near- ly all other cough syrups are constipat- ing, especially those containing opiates. Kennedy’s Laxative (containing) Honey and Tar moves the bowels. Con- tains no opiates. Conforms to the Na- tional Pure Food and Drug Law. Sold by E. H. Miller. 12-1 A local paper tells of a bolt of light- ning that struck a barn, ran down where a man was milking a cow, and tore his rubber boots off his feet with- out injury to man or cow. The ’phone girls do not answer calls in a thunder storm. They are afraid it might run along the wire and knock the rubber- necks off the line. Preventics, as the name implies, pre- vent all Colds and Grippe when “taken at the sneeze stage.” Preventics are toothsome candy tablets. Preventics dissipate all colds quickly, and taken early, when you first feel that a cold is coming, they check and prevent them. Preventics are thoroughly safe for children, and as effectual for adults. Sold and recommended in 5 cent and 25 cent boxes by Elk Lick Pharmacy. L. E.

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. Dry, cracked and colorless lips mean feverishness, and are as well ill appear- ing. To have beautiful, pink, velvet- like lips, apply at bedtime a coating of Dr. Shoop’s Green Salve. 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. Elk Lick Pharmacy. 12-1 Jer. B. Keim and family moved into their fine new residence in this bor- ough, recently, thus adding one more excellent family to our citizenship. For years Mr. Keim was one of the leading farmers of Elk Lick township, but has now retired and turned his fine farm over to his son Clarence, who will operate the same. Chas. R. Snyder, who resides on the Wm. Stanton farm, near Grantsville. Md.;will have a public sale on Satur- day, Nov. 17th. He willsell a large lot of farming implements, some live stock, ete., and right here we wish to mention that he will sell four very nice yearling heifers that are not mentioned on his bills. The sale should draw a large crowd. It will begin at 1 p. m. The best treatment for indigestion and troubles of the stomach is to rest the stomach. It can be rested by star- vation or by the use ot a good digestant which will digest the food eaten, thus taking the work off the stomach. At the proper temperature, a single tea- spoonful of Kodol will wholly digest 3,000 grains of food. It relieves the present annoyance, puts the stomach in shape to satisfactorily perform its functions. Good for indigestion, sour stomach, flatulence, palpitation of the heart and dyspepsia. Kodol is made in strict conformity with the National | Pure Food and Drug Law. Sold by E. i H. Miller. 12-1 Harry Bepler received a telegram the first of the week announcing the death of his father, Wm. Bepler, which occurred at Schigo, Cal. last Sunday. Deceased was aged about 58 years. He is survived by his wife, who was for- merly Lydia Chapman, of Grantsville, Md. He is also survived by several grown children. Mr. Bepler’s remains will be interred at Pittsburg. It is said that Oscar Wagner and Scott Johns cried so much over the re- sult of the late election that their tears rolled down Gravel Hill in such tor- rents as to drown all of Barney Krausse’s chickens, down on Gay street. How about it, Barney? They should have done like Oliver Boyer, set out and give vent to their feelings by ston- ing the dogs on the street. The town can spare a few dogs. The first news after the election was to the effect that the Fusion move- ment swept everything before it, and then the Democrats and “Lincomites” howled and bawled for joy. The chief rejoicers in Salisbury seemed to be “Tissie” Lichliter, Roscoe Welfley: But when the news changed, it knocked the false | beard off of Johns and caused the | whole bunch to sneak away like a pack | of coyotes. Died From Injuries. August Durst, a prominent farmer of New Germany, this county, a Denthery of “ex-County Commissioner Lloyd Durst, of Lonaconing, met with an ac- | cident at his home at New Germany, last Thursday, that resulted in his | death. He was mending his roof, and ! while carrying a bale of shingles, ac- cidentally slipped, and the shingles fell on him, striking him on the head and inflicting a wound that resulted in his death. He fell seventeen feet. Mr. Durst was a widower ith six children. —OQsakland Journal. ee “THE KING BEE.” “The King Bee,” the new musical comedy by Chas. Gramlich, was played at Donges Theater, Tuesday, and made the biggest hit of any show seen in Meyersdale in years. The Speck Bros, as “The Katzen- jammer Kids,” kept the audience in screams of laughter all through the piece. The company consists of thirty peo- ple, handsome girls and funny come- dians. The people of Meyersdale were so pleased with the production that Man- ager Allen has arranged for a return date, Saturday, Nov. 10, 1908. “The King Bee” will be given here in Salisbury, at Hay’s Opera House, this Friday evening, Nov. 9th, 1908. Don’t miss it. Everybody should see such a good production, and “The Katzen- jammer Kids.” Dr. Perry Sells Out. Dr. E. H. Perry has sold his hand- some Grant street residence to Dr. Peter L. Swank, who has also purchas- ed Dr. Perry's practice, taking charge of it on Monday last. Dr. Swank comes here well recom- mended, having practiced his profes- gion eleven years at Davidsville, this county, and seven years at Conemaugh, Cambria county, Pa., where his family now resides, but will move to Salisbury about the last of this month. Dr. Perry thinks he will locate in New Castle, Pa. He located here a little over three years ago, and easily stood at the head of his profession in this community from the start. Dr. Perry made many friends while here, and all of them will regret to see him depart from our town. However, his successor is no doubt worthy and com- petent enough in every respect to fill his place, and we welcome him to our community. Cases Set for Trial at Special Term of Court. The trial of the following civil cases will commence on the first day of the special term of court, Monday, Nov. 19th : John A. Weaver against the Berwind- White Coal Mining Company. This is last of the famous coal cases, and if it goes to trial it will consume the great- er part of the week. Five cases against the Coronet Coal Company, in which James Hunter, David Griffith, Thomas Lynch and Rodger Cardwell are the plaintiffs. Pittsburg Commercial Exchange vs. E. C. Murphy. Sarah A. Burkhart vs. B. & O. Rail- road Company. Thomas Kenny vs. Dr. Bruce Lichty. Stanton B. Cole vs. G. W. Kemp. Isabel Custer vs. John H. Shaffer. Sarah Jane Thomas vs. John H. Shaf- fer.

Weimer, Bruce Blubaugh, Fisher & Co, and Straus & Co. are the plaintiffs. Justice Volk vs. A. K. Beatty. NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. PEPSIKOLA MUST CURE INDIGESTION OR IT IS FREE. E. H. Miller, Elk Lick, continues to sell people with the understanding it must positively cure dyspepsia and in- digestion or it will not cost a penny. Experience has proven that Pepsikola Tablets cure dyspepsia in forty-nine cases out of fifty. That is a remarkable statement, but the facts in the case can easily be verified. There is every reason to have confi- dence, for Mr. Miller will hand back your 25 cents without hesitation should you fail of being cured. All kinds of food can be eaten freely —it is more easily digested, there is no fullness or distress after eating, and by aiding the stomack to assimilate and digest, Pepsikola Tablets make more rich, red blood to strengthen the body. They are just the thing if you feel run down, nervous, tired and debilitat- ed and need something to give you new life and new energy. Don’t hesitate a minute, but go right to Mr. Miller and try Pepsikola Tablets with the understanding that you must | ee | § ST NATIONAL + FROSTBURG, MD.
