Union barber shops may be all right in large towns, where all kinds of business places are closed at an early hour. But conditions are dif- ferent in the country, and they always will be. Merchants and other business men in the smaller towns are largely dependent upon the. farmer for their patronage, hence they cannot close their places of business before nine or ten o’clock p. m. Farmers must naces- sarily work later hours than most peo- ple, for they must make the greatest possible use of weather favorable to planting and gathering their crops. “| Then it often happens that they must come to town after doing their day’s work, to purchase articles needed the next day, and as they cannot come THE JEWEL ( OF HONESTY. early, it is necessary for the merchants | There Should be no Statute of Limi- and shopkeepers to make their closing | hours late. The barbers should be as accommodating as the other business men, and they should know that many a man whose time is valuable cannot afford to sit in a. barber shop by the hour, waiting to be shaved before nine o'clock, or be turned away if he arrives one minute after that hour. We know quite a lot of people who used to be the best of barber shop patrons, who now do their own shaving, because the in- convenient and absurd rules of the barbers’ union have forced them to it. The safety razor made shaving cheap and easy for all men who prefer to be shaved smoothly and quickly whenever they feel that they need a shave, and most of the patronage that unionism has driven from the barber shops has beendriven away for all time. The dollar safety razor is filling a long felt want, and its large army of de- lighted users is growing by leaps and bounds. And the barbers’ union is re- sponsible for it all. We believe in the open shop principle in all things, and we don’t care who kr.ows it. About all that the average trades union is good for is to inconvenience the public and put the botch mechanic on an equality with the skilled mechanic. At THE STAR print shop we do work at any hour of the day or night to suit the customer who has the price to pay for it, and we find that it pays us well to do so. We think too much of our per- sonal rights and liberty to knuckle down to the rules of any union on earth. has rr ellie meee QUICK RELIEF FOR ASTHMA" SUFFERERS.

Beale, a United Evangelical min- ister, probably saved a woman from being beaten to death, The Rev. Mr. Beale, who formerly held a pastorate at Somerset, now lives at Braddock. He heard the screams of a woman, and rushed from his home to that of a neighbor. where he found a negro beat- ing his wife. Mr. Beale pointed a re- volver at the negro, and then marched him to the city police station. This re- calls an incident that occurred when Mr. Beale resided at Somerset. When Joe and David Nicely, the Umberger assassins. broke jail and escaped to Oak Ridge, Mr. Beale followed the murderers, as did hundreds of others. The writer and Mr. Beale took a po- sition at the northwestern edge of the grove, to prevent the assassins escap- ing from that place, and while they were standing there, the Nicelys emerged from the woods. Mr. Beale leveled a revolver at the Nicelys, and after commanding them to halt, fired several shots at them, but all of the shots went wide of the mark.—Somer- set Standard. THE STAR is of the opinion that Rev. Beale is too fond of using a gun for a man posing as a sky pilot. He should practice what he preaches, or else quit “shooting off his mouth” for a living, and go to shooting off his revolver in- stead. What business has a preacher got with a revolver, anyway? We think Rev. (?) Beale is after a little cheap notoriety now and then. The chances are that his preaching goes as wide of the mark as his bullets did when he shot at the Nicelys. Anyway, the gospel of Jesus Christ is not a gos- pel of bullets, revolvers and shooting, no matter under what circumstances. ——— WAS IN POOR HEALTH FOR YEARS. Ira W. Kelley, of Mansfield, Pa. writes: “I was in poor health for two years, suffering from kidney and blad- der trouble, and spent considerable money consulting physicians without obtaining any marked benefit, but was cured by Foley’s Kidney Cure. and I desire to add my testimony that it may be the cause of restoring the health of others.” Refuse substitutes.

Dr. Story, the late principal of Glas- gow University, while taking a holiday in the country once, was met by the minister of the district, who remarked: “Hullo, Principal! You here? Why, you must come down and relieve me for a day.” Dr. Story replied: “I don’t promise to relieve. you, but I might relieve your congregation.” tations to Make an Honest Account Uncollectible. Of all the virtues in man, none com- pare with the virtue of honesty. A wise man has truly said that an honest man is the nblest work of God. The man who is honest may have faults in other directions, but as a general thing he averages up far better in most vir- tues than the man who is dishonest. The sins of dishonesty and deception are one and the same, and probably no other sins cause so many countless thousands to mourn. Yea, not only to mourn, but to give up in despair, lose faith in humanity and lead dishonor- able instead of honorable lives. One dishonest man is responsible for many rogues, and there are many instances where one dishonest act has wrecked not only the manly principle in the person resorting to it, but also wrecked it in those who observed that act or were made to suffer by it. Being honest does not only mean that we should pay our debts, but it means that we should be what we pre- tend to be in all things. Of course, paying our debts is a very essential thing in being honest. Probably it is the most essential thing. There should be no statute of limita- tions to make an honest account un- eollectible, and the man who is able to pay his just debts, but refuses to do so just because the statute of limitations relieves him of payment—such a man, we say, is not honest, no matter what his religious pretensions may be, how much he may boast of giving to the | church, how meekly he may wend hig ‘way to the sanctuary,or how religious- 1y he may observe the Sabbath. Every man is entitled to a comfort- able living who is willing. to earn it, and it is well enough to have laws that will prevent a man from being sold out of house and home for debts that he is unable to meet without reducing him or those dependent upon him to the verge of actual want, But the man who is amply able to pay his debts, whether outlawed or not, and fails or refuses to do so, is a parasite and a sponger off of others, and none of the noblest work of God—an honest man. To acquire a fortune without paying your just debts, if you are able to pay them, is acquiring a fortune in a mean and dirty way. We heartily agree with the following from the Success Maggazine: and Transportation Company, Thomas Kell’s Sons Company, the Burlee Dry Dock Company, James Shewan & Sons, Ira 8. Bushey, and McAllister Brothers, - some very large orders having been booked from several of these firms recently. Besides handling ship and dock tim- bers in large quantity, the Billmeyer Company is a heavy shipper of oak car lumber, and has lately been sup- plying two of the largest eastern rail- roads with practically all their require- ments. This company has also a very lucrative trade in chestnut, white and yellow pine, in fact enjoys the confi- dence and respect of the lumber trade in general, and especially of those with whom it has had business relations. ic re meat ee MAXIMS OF ROOSEVELT. No other nation can harm us if only we are true to ourselves. The foundation of our society rests pon the man with the dinner pail Whatever is really for his welfare, for his permanent and ultimate welfare, is for the welfare of the community. It is as un-American to deride and attack the man of means because he is well-to-do, or the man of letters be- cause he has a trained mind, as it would be to attack his poorer brother who has had no chance to win the wealth or learning. Every wealthy corporation that per- petrates or is allowed to perpetrate & wrong helps to produce or influence & condition of angry excitement against all corporations, which in its turn may in the end harm alike the honest and dishonest agents of public service, ané thereby do far-reaching damage to the whole body politic. Any rational attempt to prevent or counteract presenteday evils, by legis- lation or, otherwise, is deserving of hearty support ; but it can not be too deeply impressed upon us that such an attempt can result in permanedt good only in proportion as they are made in a sane and wholesome spirit, as far re- moved as possible from what is hys- terical or revolutionary. Ae WHEN A MAN TELLS YOU it does not pay to advertise, he is simply ad- mitting that he is conducting a busi- ness that is not worth advertising, a business conducted by a man unfit te do business, and a business which should be advertised for sale. tf
