| MIX THIS.
| Prepare it at Home By Shaking In-
gredients Well in a Bottle.
| What-will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from a New York daily paper, giving a
simple prescription, as formulated by a
noted authority, who claims tha¢ he
has found a positive remedy to cure
almost any case of backache or kidney
or bladder derangement, in the follow-
ing simple prescription, if taken before
the stage of Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce ; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well in a bottle and
take. in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime. :
A well-known druggist here at home,
when asked regarding this preserip-
tion, stated that the ingredients are all
harmless, and can be obtained at a
small cost from any good prescription
pharmacy, or the mixture would be put
up if asked to doso. He further stated
that while this prescription is often
prescribed in rheumatic afflictions with
splendid results, he could see no reason
why it-would not be a splendid remedy
for kidney and urinary troubles and
backache, as it has a peculiar action
upon the kidney structure, cleansing
these most important organs and help-
ing them to sift and filter from the
blood the foul acids and waste matter
which cause sickness and suffering,
Those of our readers who suffer can
make no mistake i in giving i arial.

THE two-cent rate is constitutional
in Ohio, but unconstitutional in Penn-
sylvania. But then, the Pennsylvania
railroad has charge of the Pennsyl-
vania constitution.
H. H. RoGEeRs, the Standard Oil mag-
nate, has been ordered by his physician
to “keep quiet for three months.” A
prescription like that would kill Rich-
mond P. Hobson or Wm. Jennings
Bryan.
PENNSYLVANIA makes one-fourth of
the National cigar output, and also
sells and drinks more “booze” than any
other state in the Union. As a result,
her jails, penitentiaries, work houses
and alms houses are also the fullest,
and the same can also be said of her
lunatic asylums. Yet, with all this,
Pennsylvania is, taking it all in all, the
greatest and most useful state in the
Union. If “Uncle Sam” had to part
with one of his numerous states, he
would feel the loss of Pennsylvania far
more than that of any other state.

herself. Not, however, through and by

Two-Cent Railroad Fare Law Now
in Effect.
The railroads of Pennsylvania have
decided to comply with the Two-Cent
Fare law, pending the decision on the
constitutionality of the act in the Su-
preme Court, and began selling tickets
at the two-cent rate on the first day of
this month. |
ouT OF SIGHT.
“Qut of sight, out of mind,” is an old
saying which applies with special force
to a sore, burn or wound that’s been
treated with Buckden’s Arnica Salve.
It’s out of sight, out of mind and out of
existence. Piles too and chilblajns dis-
appear under its healing influence.

A GREAT SPEECH. -
Colonel teliry Watterson made a
speech at the opening of the Bluegrass
Fair, at Lexington, Ky., that would
make him famous, were he not already
famous. Following are some of the
good and true utterances he made in
his speech on the said occasion:
WARNING AGAINST “T8Ms.”
“I protest against that religion which
sands the sugar and waters the milk
before it goes to its prayers. I protest
against that morality which poses as a
saint in public to do as it pleases in
private. As the old woman said of the
old man’s swearing, “If there is any-
thing I do hybominate, it is hypocrisy.”
In my opinion those things which
threaten Kentucky are not the gentle-
manly vices of the race course and the
sideboard, but perfidy and phariseeism
in public and private life.
“I warn our people against the intra-
sion of certain ‘isms’ which describe
themselves as ‘progress,’ and muster
under the standard of what they call
‘God -and morality,” but which, fifty
years ago, went by a very different
name; ‘isms’ which take their spirit
from Cotton Mather, not from Jesus
Christ ; ‘isms’ which, where they can-
not rule, would burn at the stake;
‘isms’ which embrace the sum of all
fanaticism and intolerance.
No ANGELS BY LEGISLATION.
“I refuse to yield to these. Holding
the ministry in reverence as spiritual
advisers, rejecting them as emissaries
of temporal power, I do not intend, if I
can help it, to be compelled to accept a
rule of modern clericalism, which, if it
could have its bent and sway, would
revive for us the priest-ridden systems
of the Middle Ages. Ido not care to
live in a world that is too good to be
genial ; too ascetic to be honest; too
procriptive to be happy. I do not be-
lieve that men can be legislated into
angels, even red-nosed angels.
. “The blue laws of New England, dead
letters for the most part, did more
harm to the people, while they lasted,
than all the other agencies united. TI
would leave them in the cold storage to
which the execration of some and the
neglect of all consigned them long ago,
not embalm and import them to Ken-
tucky to poison the meat and drink
and character of the people. TI shall
leave my home life, my professional
career and my familiar associates to
say whether I do not place, and have
not always placed, the integrity of
man, the purity of woman and the
sanctity of religion above all earthly
things; but I hope never to grow too
old to make merry with my friends
and forget for a little that I am no
longer one and twenty. When the
time arrives for me to go to my ac-
count, I mean to go shouting; to go
with my flag flying.
For OLD KENTUCKY.
“IT want to live yet a little longer to
tell the truth and shame the devil, but
if obscurity and adversity and neglect
shall overtake me, it will be a comfort
even in the valley of the shadow of
death, that from first to last I fought
not for the speckled gospels of the
short-haired women and the long-hair-
ed men of Babylon, but for the simple
manhood and lovely womanhood of
Old Kentucky—never New Kentucky,
but always and forever, Old Kentucky
—vyour birthright and mine.”
A QUICK AND SAFE REMEDY FOR
BOWEL COMPLAINTS.
Twenty years ago Mr. Geo. W. Brock
discovered that Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was a
quick and safe cure for bowel com-
plaints. “During all of these years,”
he says, “I have used it and recom-
mended it many times and the results
have never yet disappointed me.” Mr.
Brock is publisher of the Aberdeen,
Md., Enterprise. For sale at Miller’s

A Hot Time at the Fair.
It is said that not less than 8,000 peo-
ple and over 800 vehicles passed
through the gates at the Meyersdale
Fair and Races, last Thursday. It is
also reported that about 8,888,888
“cuss” words were reeled off over one
of the races. But twas ever thus, and
to be a race starter is like being a base-
ball umpire—destined to be “cussed”
loudly and long, all of which adds to a
man’s prominence and popularity.
A CRIMINAL ATTACK
on an inoffensive citizen is frequently
made in that apparently useless little
tube called the “appendix.” It’s gener-
ally the result of protracted constipa-
tion, following liver torpor. Dr. King’s
New Life Pills regulate the liver, pre-
vent appendicitis, and establish regular
habits of the bowels. 25¢c. at E. H. Mil-

| Track Almost Completed--Cars Will
be Running Soon.
The track of the Pennsylvania &
Maryland Street Railway Company is
almost completed between Salisbury
and Meyersdale. The track- -layers are
now within a very short distance of
the Northern boundary line of Salis-
bury, and it is likely that the last rail
between the two towns will be spiked
down by this evening, except at the
railroad crossings.
‘The poles are nearly all erected, and
most of the wire is strung. Some
track in both boroughs is yet to be
laid, some ballasting to be done along
the line, county road crossings to be
put in good condition, ete., all of which
will be rapidly pushed to completion,
and it now looks as though cars will be
running at an early date, probably by
Nov. 1st or sooner.

Negro Shoots Two Men in Meyers-
dale.
A shooting affray occurred in the bar
room of the American House, in Mey-
ersdale, last Thursday evening, when
Henry Hudson, a negro, shot Joseph:
Eden, another negro, and Robert F.
Rae, a white man.
According to reports, Hudson blamed
Eden for being too intimate with his:
(Hudson’s) wife, and for that reason
opened fire on him with a revolver.
Eden tried to shield himself behind
Rae, an innocent person, and the re-
sult was that two bullets intended for
Eden took effect in Rae’s arm. Anoth-
er bullet entered Eden’s breast, but it
is believed that neither of the shots
will prove fatal. - Hudson is now in
jail.
Rowdies Pull Birgess Welfley’ Ss
Whiskers.
The following news dispatch from
Somerset appeared in Monday's Pitts-
burg Gazette Times:
“When you point the town red you
must pay for your paint.” This edict
Burges W. H. Welfley gave out to
young men when he took office here
nearly 25 years ago, and he has since
stood by it. He is today nursing
bruises and preparing bills for several
alleged “painters.”
Late last night the 75-year-old bur-
gess noticed several intoxicated men
fighting in a street. No policemen
were present, and when the burgess
attempted to make arrests he was
handled roughly. Among the indigni-
ties he suffered while pinned down in
the gutter was the pulling of his whisk-
ers. The men escaped, but Welfley
thinks he knows his assailants,and ar-
rests are likely.
Somerset’s venerable burgess should
follow the style of the Burgess of Salis-
bury, who wears neither whiskers nor
hair on his head. If the above news
item is true, no doubt the Somerses
burgess is of the opinion that there are
worse forms of punishment than hav-
ing one’s leg pulled.
According to late and reliable re-
ports, the above sensational item from
the Gazette Times is far from the
truth, as most Somerset county dis-
patches to the daily papers are, and
some people are beginning to think
that certain correspondents to the city
papers are the most conscienceless and
abandoned liars on this side of hades,
their final home. The latest reports
have it that a drunken man clutches at
and clung to Burgess Welfley’s whis-
kers for a brief period, merely to have
something to hold on to, and not with
any intention to do bodily harm.

A CERTAIN CURE FOR CROUP—
USED FOR TEN YEARS WITH-
OUT A FAILURE.
Mr. W. C. Bott, a Star City, Ind.,
hardware merchant, is enthusiastic in
his praise of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. His children have all been
subject to croup and he has used this
remedy for the past ten years, and
though they much feared the croup,
his wife and he always felt safe upon
retiring wheh a bottle of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy was in the house. His
oldest child was subject to severe at-
tacks of croup, but this remedy never
failed to effect a speedy cure. He has
recommended it to friends and neigh-
bors and all who have used it say that
it is unequaled for croup and whoop-
ing cough. For sale at Miller's Drug
Store. 11-1
