to know where to get the best of everything. She knows that,
especially in drugs, medicines, toilet articles and stationery, there’s
never anything gained, and frequently much lost by using some-
thing cheap and inferior.
We have quite a crowd around our place, but there’s always
room for one more, and our clerks are of the spry kind. They
don’t keep a customer hanging around half a day before being
waited upon.

THE GREATEST THING IN LIFE
Health being the greatest thing in life, it is astonishing that the one necessary reference work
has not long ago been written,. especially, since the last generation has seen such revolutions in medi-
cine, surgery and sanitation that no layman, and scarcely any one physician, can keep up with them. .
As a supplement to the physician’s work, as a resource when a physician cannot be had, as an
educator in the art of living, the Home Library of Medicine has received the most enthusiastic recep-
tion ever accorded a special encyclopedia. .

Before this physicians have discouraged such works, and
rightly. "Now that a really standard household medical library
is at hand to aid in the work of showing intelligent people how to
live vigorously and happily, the best physicians are welcoming it
with the hizhest praise. It is written so that any man, any
woman and any household can understand and use it. Associated
with Dr. Kenelm Winslow, a former Harvard Professor, in this
work, is a notable board of 23 eminent specialists—landmarks in
the medical profession. tet
EVERYBODY CAN UNDERSTAND and USE IT
Every important illness, small and great, is described as
clearly and concisely 4s possible, and under each disease the reader”
is instructed what to'do, whether to consult a physician, what to
do until the physician comes, and what to do if a physician cannot
be had. The renfedies and treatment resulting from: the very

TROLLEY MAGNATES MEET.
P. & M. Trolley Service to be Great-
ly Improved.
To-day a meeting of stockholders
of the Pa. & Md. Street Railway Com-
pany was held at the Frst National
Bank of Salisbury. The principal
.| stockholders—C. H. Jennings, of Jen-
ningston, W. Va., Hon. Geo. W. Kipp,
Geo. R. Hill and E. F, Kizer, of Towan-
da, Pa., were all in attendance, as were
also the local members of the company
Maust, J. 1.
Among other business transacted, it
was decided that cars must run twelve
roand trips per day between Salisbury
and Meyersdale, instead of seven, as
heretofore. Other improvements in
the service were also decided upon, and
Mr. Jennings said to the editor of Tue
STAR: “You may say in your paper
that cars on the P. & M. must and will
be run on schedule time. regardless of
snow or any other kind of weather, re-
gardless of expense or the number of
people traveling. The service must be.
such that it can be relied upon.”
Mr. Jennings further stated while
here that the schedule must be well
advertised, for he knows the. value of
printers’ ink, as all men of large busi-
ness affairs do, and he said printed
schedules of the P. & M. must be scat-
tered broadcast all over such territory
as the road can be expected to draw
traffic from.
This is indeed good news fer every-
body concerned, and we can vouch for
it that Mr. Jennings never talks through
his hat. He is a man of few words, but
his words are invariably to the point,
and he always says what he means and
means what he says. The new order
of things is to go into effect at the
earliest possible moment.
SIMPLE REMEDY FOR LA GRIPPE.
La grippe coughs are dangerous, as
they frequently develop into pneu-
monia. Foley’s Honey and Tar not
only steps the cough, but heals and
strengthéws the lungs so that no ser-
ious results need be feared. - The gen-
uine Foley’s Honey and Tar contains
no harmful drugs and is in a yellow
package. Refuse substitutes. Sold by

New Postofice.
We forgot to mention in our issue of
last week that Postmaster Lowry
moved his office equipment from the
Silas A. Wagner building into the build-
ing lately occupied by Albert Hasel-
barth, the denist. The building in
which the postoffice is now located has
been enlarged and specially fitted up
for its present purpose, and the loca-
tion is nearer the business center of
the town than the place where the of-
fice was formerly conducted.
The move was made upon the recom-
mendation of a postoffice inspector,and _
Postmaster Lowry surely has a snug
office now, one in which the office force,
as well as the patrons of the office have
plenty of room.
"Postmaster Lowry is giving the pa-
trons of his office very satisfactory ser-
vice, and he is to be commended for
trying to break up the habit some peo-
ple have of smoking in the postoffice
true gentleman will not

right to compel others to inhale the

the lungs of the users and then exhaled
| into the air others must breathe, the
offense becomes almost as unbearable
