A rector having a parishioner of
great fluency of speech, and also ad-
dicted to profanity, considered it his
duty to talk to the man about his
fault. The man listened for a while,
respectfully, and then replied, serious-
ly: “I know it is a bad habit, but, you
see, my words flow so rapidly that I
have to throw in a ‘dam’ now and then
to prevent a flood.”

Wm, Schardt, of Meyersdale, was a
welcome caller at Tue Star office, last
Thursday. He used to attend the
school for the deaf, at Edgwood Park,
Pittsburg, Pa., and would have gradu-
ated, had he remained another term.

House, in Meyersdale, but he is think-
ing of taking up another course in a
New York school, soon.
The X-rays have recently shown

Deputy Sheriff G. N. Schrock, of
_Somerset, was a welcome caller at THE
Star office, Tuesday morning. Mr.
Schrock was one of our subscribers,
some years ago, but allowed himself to
drop out of our family of readers.
Like the prodigal son, he returned
howeyer, and asked to have his name
once more placed on our list, and the
subscription price accompanied the re-
quest. “Newt” is a good fellow, and he
acknowledges the fact that THE STAR’
is a good newspaper.

Tablets called Preventics. Druggists

nothing harsh nor sickening. Taken at
the “sneeze stage” Preventics will pre-
vent Pneumonia, Bronchitis, La Grippe,
etc. Hence the name, Preventics.

tics 25 cents. Trial Boxes 5 cts. Sold

Our old friend and neighbor, Mr:
Henry Dersch, was a welcome caller at
Tue Star office, yesterday morning.
Mr. Dersch went into the baking busi-
ness in Hyndman, a couple of years
ago, with Chas. Gibson as a partner.
The business was not profitable for
both, and Mr. Dersch purchased his
partner’s interest during the past year,
since which time he has been doing a
profitable business. Henry Dersch is a
very honorable citizen, and we are
glad to know that he is prospering in
his new location.
Henry- E. Jones, of Tampa, Fla,
writes: “I can thank God for my
present health, due to Foley’s Kidney
Cure. I tried doctors and all kinds of
kidney cures, but nothing done ine
much good till I took Foley’s Kidney
Cure. Four bottles cured me; and I
have no more pain in my back and
shoulders. I am 62 years old, and suf-
fered long, but thanks to Foley’s Kid-
ney Cure I am well and can walk and
enjoy myself. It is a pleasure to re-
commend it to those needing a kidney
medicine.” Sold by all Druggists. 11-1
The large turnip which was brought
to the Democrat office, several months
ago, has developed larger ones all over
the county. In the last issue of the
Somerset Standard an account was
given of a turnip raised in a garden in
Windber that measured thirty-two
inches in circumference, and weighed
nine and three-quarter pounds. This
item hrought J. W. Broucher to town
on Saturday with a turnip that weigh-
ed eighteen pounds, and measured
forty inches in circumference, which he
took out of his cornfield. At the sug-
gestion of the editor-of the Democrat,
he presented the monster to the editor
of the Standard.—Somerset Democrat.

Sam Livengood is thinking of ad-
dressing the farmers’ institute to be
held here in November, on profitable
potato culture. Last spring’he planted
6 bushels of potatoes, for which he paid
$4.50. His plowing, planting, cultivat-
ing and harvesting the crop cost him
about $8.00. making the, total expense
$12.50. He harvested a crop of 8
bushels of fine tubers, the other day,
which he values at $6.00. Ir is just as
clear as mud to Sam that there’s money
in farming if a fellow knows how to
farm. His experience is fully as inter-
esting as the experience John Kann
had a few years ago at raising a fat
hog. The hog grew smaller the longer
he fed it, and the meat supply there-
from was not large, but the porker had
a luxuriant crop of long bristles, and
everybody knows how valuable hog
bristles are.
Thomas A. Edison, the great Ameri-
can inventor, says "Fully eighty per
cent. of the illness of mankind comes
from eating improper food or too much
food ; people are inclined to over-in-
dulge themselves.” This is where in-
digestion finds its beginning in nearly
every case. The stomach can do just
so much work and no more, and when
you overload it, or when you eat the
wrong kind of food, the digestive or-
gans cannot possibly do the work de-
manded of them. It is at such times
that the stomach needs help; it de-
mands help, and warns you by head-
aches, belching, sour stomach, nausea
and indigestion. You should attend to
this at once by taking something that |
will actually do the work for the |
stomach. Kodol will do this. It is a
combination of natural digestants and |
vegetable acids and contains the same |
juices found in a healthy stomach. It |
is pleasant to take. It digests what |
you eat. Sold by¥ 1 E. H. Miller. 11-1

Govey and Taterka’ s beautiful com-
edy drama, “Broken Hearts,” will be |
introduced at Hay’s opera house, on |
Wednesday night, October 16th. The |
play is one of great heart interest, |
reaching the hearts of all, rich in]
comedy and pathos, telling a story you |
will not forget the moment you leave |
the theatre. The scenes are simular to |
those of “Old Homestead” and “Way |
Down East.” The story runs as fol-|
lows: A farmer’s young daughter is]
enticed away by a fashionable city
“gentleman ;’ the true, honest lover |
who is rejected, follows her to the |
great city, disguised as an Italian. A
member of the Black Hand society is
engaged by the fine-clothed ¥gentle- |
man’ to put her out of the way, so he
may be able to obtain her fortune.
very effective scene in the play is the
asylum, showing the brutality of the
keeper and the heroic escape of the
heroine, aided by her little friend and
the country lover.
During the play a number of spec-
ialties will be introduced. Seat tickets |
will be on sale at the Nickelodeon, on |
Monday. and Tuesday evenings, be-
tween 5 and 7 o’clock. Price, 50 cents.
OUT OF SIGHT.
“Out 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 Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.
It’s out of sight, out of mind and out of
existence. ‘Piles too and chilblains dis-
