Consider what the hen does when she

“Biddy” is about 50 cents, and the
value of her daily produce 2 cents, or
one twenty-fifth part of her own worth.

enough for her to earn her value many
times over, and that cannot be said of
some in this world who have- great pre-
tensions to usefulness.

Fraser, of Connellsville; Assistant

Zylpha, a young daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Statler, injured herself

an adjoining fence of barb wire. One

There is one preparation known to-
day that will promptly help the stom-
ach. This is Kodol. Kodol digests all
classes of food, and it does it thorough-
ly, so that the use of Kodol for a time
will without doubt kelp anyone who
has stomach disorders or stomach
trouble. Take Kodol today and con-
tinue it for the short time that is neces
sary to give Jou complete relief. Kodol
is sold by E. H. Miller. 8-1
If you are a kicker and see the
shadow of failure in everything that is
proposed to help the town, for heaven’s
sake go into some secluded canyon and
kick your own shadow on the clay
bank, and thus give men who are work-
ing to build up a town a chance. One
long-faced, hollow-eyed, whining kick-
er can do more to keep away business
and capital from a town than all
drouths, short crops, chinch bugs, ey-
clones and blizzards combined.

will make you well. Elk Lick Phar-

Our garments are old, and tattered
and torn; the soles of our shoes are
shockingly worn; the crown and the
rim are gone from our hat; our cup-
board is empty—not even a rat would
stay ‘round the house for fear he wouid
starve, or that we might think him a
good chance to carve; and yet we ask
nothing but what is our due; and if we
but had it—perhaps, sir, from you—in-
stead of this sad tale of woe that we
sing, we'd joyfully shout and live like a
king.
Get my “Book No. 4 For Women.”
It will give weak women many valuable
suggestions of relief—and with strictly
confidential medical advice is entirely
free. Simply write Dr. Shoop, Racine,
Wis. The book No. 4 tells all about
Dr. Shoop’s Night Cure and how these
soothing, healing, antiseptic supposi-
tories can be successfully applied to
correct these weaknesses. Write for

Piles are easily and quickly checked

The tennis girl goes out to play her
nerve-producing game; the flippant
girl goes out larking because her life’s
too tame ; the reading girl betakes her-
self into a world of books; the schem-
ing girl to the seaside goes to fish with
artful hooks; the flirting girl goes any-
where ske thinks there is a man; the
dressy girl goes to Paris to buy a dress
and fan; the beauty goes upon the

the girl that gets the husband stays
right at home and cooks.

blood pressure on the sensitive nerve.

called Pink Pain Tablets—quickly and

from pain. centers. Painful periods

We have been informed that the
which assembled in this town last
week, had delegated several of the
members of that body to furnish re-
ports of the convention to the various
county papers. At the hour of going to
press, however, this paper has not yet
received the report which it was to
have. Well, it doesn’t make much dif-
ference, anyway, because most of the
people interested in' the convention
know all about it, and to the greater
number not interested, a report in the
local paper would be dry reading mat-
ter.
Heat prostrates the nerves. In the
summer one needs a tonic to off-set the
customary hot weather Nerve and
Strength depression. You will feel
better within 48 hours after beginning
to take such a remedy as Dr. Shoop’s
Restorative. Its prompt action in re-
storing weakened nerves is surprising.
Of course, you won’t get entirely strong
in a few days, but each day you can
actually feel the improvement. That
tired, lifeless, spiritless, feeling will
quickly depart when using the Restor-
ative. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative will
sharpen a failing appetite; it aids di-
geston ;
Kidneys and Heart by simply rebuild-
ing the worn-out nerves that these or-
gans depend upon. Test it a few days
and be convinced. Sold by all dealers.
Dr. “Abe” Livengood, the well-known
veterinary surgeon who went from
here to Keyser, W. Va., where he lo-
cated more than a year ago, arrived
here last week with a handsome young
bride, taking her straightway to his old
home to show her to his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Elijah Livengood. We have
not learned to whom he is married, but
“we have taken notice that she is a very
nice-looking lady, and have no doubt
that she is just asgood as good-looking.
We welcome the new bride to the Liv-
engood fraternity, and we extend our
best wishes and most hearty congrat-
ulations to the’ genial doctor and his
handsome bride.
In the northern part of the state, not
long ago, a boy was requested to write
a composition on “The Mouth,” and
this is what he wrote: “The mouth is
the front door to the face. It is the
aperture to the cold storage. of our
anatomy. It is the hot-bed of the
toothache and the bunghole of oratory.
The mouth is the crimson aisle to the
river; it is the fountain of patriotism
and the too!-chest for pie. Without
the mouth the politician would be a
wanderer on the face of the globe, and
go down to a dishonest grave. Itis the
grocer’s friend, the dentist’s hope. It
is the temptation lunch counter when
attached to a pretty girl, and a tobacco
fiend when attached to a man.”
This is what Hon. Jake Moore, State
Warden of Georgia, says of Kodol for
Dyspepsia: “E. C. DeWitt & Co,
Chicago, Ill.—Dear Sirs—I have suf-
fered more than twenty years from in-
digestion. About eighteen months ago
I had grown so much worse that 1
could not digest a crust of corn bread,
and could not retain anything on my
stomach. I lost 25 lbs.; in fact I made
up my mind that I could not live but a
short time, when a friend of mine rec-
ommended Kodol. I'consented to try
it to please him and was better in one
day. I now weigh more than I ever
did in my life, and am in better health
than for many years. Kodol did it. I
keep a bottle constantly, and write this
hoping that humanity may bé benefit-
ed. Yours very truly, Jake C. Moore,
Atlanta, Aug. 10, 1904.” Sold by E. H.

If there were no women, men would
have no object in life ; their mustaches
would cease to interest them; they
would not care a Chinaman whether
their collars wore ironed or not; they
would have nobody to nurse them
when they had the toothache, or to
keep them from believing they were
going to die when an old-fashioned
stomachache had the grip upon them.
There would be nobody to take for ice
cream, and no small edition of flesh and
blood to hug. There would be nobody
to fight against being kissed, and then
take to it as natural as the cat does to
cream. Most important of all, there
would be nobody to write against, to
complain of and to love with all your
heart and soul. Without her, man
would never get to heaven, and with-
out them they would never have a taste
