THE SPREAD OF LOCAL OPTION.
Without doubt the greatest move-
ment for civic righteousness and moral
reform inaugurated in recent years is
local option. Like a giant ocean wave
it is sweeping over the country. Where
adopted it has awakened the people to
the fact of its wonderful influence for
uplifting the brotherhood of man and
bettering his ~ condition materially,
morally and spiritually. Although a
sporting town at the head of the
column, the sentiment in Windber is
growing like a vine, and it has come to
stay. Many of the best citizens of our
town are looking forward to the time
when such a law will be placed on the
statute books of the state. When the
citizens of a township, town or county,
instead of the state, shall say whether
licensed houses shall exist in such
towns and districts. —Windber Era.
Handed Him a Proper One.
Said the speaker at a lawyer's din-
ner: “We lawyers couldn’t do better
than to resolve in the new year to be
gentler in our cross-examinations.
Rudeness in cross-examinations never
pays. This is a truth that I once saw
proved in a damage suit. In this suit
a cross-examining lawyer shouted at a
witness in overalls: ‘You,there, in the
overalls, how much are you paid for
telling untruths? ”
“ ‘Less than you are,’ the witness re-
torted, ‘or you’d be in overalls, too.” ”

SUFFERING & DOLLARS SAVED
MIXED OFTEN.
This Simple Home-Made Mixture.
Some remarkable stories are being!
told about town and among the coun-
try people coming in of this simple
home-made mixiure curing Rheuma-
tism and Kidney trouble. Here is the
recipe and directions for taking: Mix
by shaking well in a bottle one-half
ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
ounce Compound Kargon, three ounces
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla. Take.
as a dose one teaspoonful after meals
and at bedtime.
No change need be made in your
usual diet, but drink plenty of good
water.
This mixture, writes one authority
in a leading Philadelphia newspaper,
has a peculiar tonic effect upon the
kidneys; cleansing the clogged up
pores of the eliminative tissues, forc-
ing the kidneys to sift and strain from
thie blood the uric acid and other poi-
sonous waste matter,overcoming Rheu-
matism, Bladder and Urinary troubles
in a short while.
A New York .druggist who has had
hundreds of calls for these ingredients
since the first announcement in the
newspapers last October, stated that
the people who once tried it “swear by
it,” especially those who have Urinary
and Kidney trouble and suffer with
Rheumatism.
The druggists in. this neighborhood
say they can supply the ingreodents,
which are easily mixed at home. There
is said to be no better blood-cleansing
agent or system tonic known, and cer-
tainly none more harmless or simple
to use.
Loeal Option i in Somerset County.
Tbe Anti-Saloon League has begun
active work in this county. A conven-
tion will be held in the Assembly room
of the court house, in Somerset, on
Thursday, Feb. 20,1908. Two sessions
have been arranged, one at 2 p. m. and
another at 7:30 p. m. State Superin-
tendent 8. E. Nicholson, of Harrisburg,
will deliver an address. as well as
other noted state workers. It promises
to be a great convention. The purpose
of this convention is organization and
co-operation in securing the nomina-
tion of Assemblymen from this county
pledged for local option. This move-
ment is rapidly gaining ground, and it
is believed many friends of local option
will be in attendance” at this conven-
tion to hear these noted speakers and
plan for aggressive work before the
primary election.

Prohibition’s Growth.
Not since the days of Abolition has
any great ethical principle made such
a fight for recognition by our political
system as Prohibition has within the
last few years. Like the Abolition
movement, the struggle for Prohibition
had an insignificant local beginning,
and was, at first, a vital principle only
to women’s societies and unimportant
men, who were led by a isingle individ-
ual of extraordinary power. But after
Garrison came Wendell Phillips, Lucy
Larcom, Harriet Beecher Stowe and
others, whose eloquence made new
converts to:their cause every day,
and in due time set the whole country
afire with it. Likewise, Prohibition
took the mantle of Neal Dow and cast
it over the shoulders of John B. Gough,
and after him came a score of others,
with the late Francis Murphy among
them. Abolition lived half a century,
then reached its zenith and expired
amid the blood and smoke of a great
war which it had stirred up. But that
war was its creation and its servant,
doing its work, and died only because
its work was done. Prohibition has ex-
isted half a century now, and perhaps
has not arrived at its zenith, but it has
reached a tremendous height and is
spreading all over the country in leaps
and bounds greater than those of Abo-
lition, except in its later days. Its
issue will not be left to the sword, as
was that of its greater forerunner, but
it will put its trust in the ballot and in
the war of ballots and there will surely
come a Gettysburg.—Washington Post.

Druggists Iear Much Praise for |
Horrisle Accident to LeviCochramm,
The people of Salisbury and vicinlgy
| were greatly grieved, Tuesday ev ening,
to learn of a most distressing accidast
jibat befell Levi Cochrane, Tuésdgy
afternoon, the particulars of which am
about as follows:
Some mining ears were being rum
down the tramway that leads from tise
Sechler opening to the tipple at Mam
chants mine No. 2. and Levi was em
one of the cars, The descent beigg
quite rapid, the cars usually run ste
high speed over part of the tramwag,
and Levi became alarmed and though®
the man in charge of the trip had lest
control of the cars. He therefess
jumped off, thinking thereby to aveall
death or serious injury. But just as
he jumped, the cars entered a vesp
narrow cut, and he was caught be-
tween the cars and a bank of earth
He was rolled and dragged for a coe-
siderable distance, which resultedam
dislocating one of his hips, and alse
breaking the bone near the hip joint.
His injuries are of sucl a serious ne
ture that he had to be sent to Pitts
burg, where the most skiliful of hes
pital and surgical treatment is to We
had.
The unfortunate young man is a ses
of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Cochrane, whe
seem to be having more than their
share of misfortune with their sone
Charles, the eldest of their boys, lost =
leg some time ago as the result of &
mine accident, and Levi, who is about
20 years of age, will be fortunate im
deed if he escapes death or being e
cripple for life as a result of Tues
day’s accident.

How the Lawyer Cleared his Client.
A lawyer was defending a man ac-
cused of house-breaking, and said te
the court:
“Your Honor, I submit that my cli-
ent did not break into the house at all.
He found the parlor window open and
merely inserted his right arm and re-
moved a few trifling articles. Now.
my client’s arm is not himself,and [
fail to see how you can punish the
whole individual for an offense:com-
mitted by only one of his limbs.”
“That argument,” said the judge, “ie
very well put. Following it logically.
I sentence the defendent’s arm to one
year’s imprisonment. He can accom
pany it or not, as he chooses.”
The defandant smiled, and withthix
lawyer’s assistace unscrewed his cork
arm, and, leaving it in the dock, walk
ed out.
