That is the only time you need to take Kodol. Just when you need it ; then you will not be troubled with sour stomach, belching, gas on the stomach, bloating, dyspepsia and indi- gestion. Sold by E. H. Miller. 9-1 He Voted for “Honest Pete,” Says a Fellow Mine Workmen. In a letter recently received from John P. Vogel, one of our old school- mates who is now employed in the mines at Jerome, Pa, the following in- formation is imparted to us, all of which we duly appreciate: “The panic struck Berlin rather hard, so I came up here to work, but still reside at Berlin. The mines I worked in are still shut down. There are lots of Salisbury people up here. Let the paper go to Berlin, as dear old mother likes to read it so well, as I do also, but I do not wish to take it from her, and I can see the papers when I go home every few weeks. My best respects to you and all inquiring friends.” John further informs us that he is proud to say that he voted for the editor for Legislative nomination, last spring, or as he puts it, “cast my vote for honest Pete” John P. Vogel was one of our fellow workmen at Tubmill mines, back in 1885, when we weighed coal (here, which we have recently been accused of weighing falsely by an irresponsible and lying socialist seribbler in the paper which shouid be called “Appeal to Treason,” published at Girard, Kan. So far as we know, not a single man that we ever weizhed coal for has ever accused us of weighing fal-ely, and most of them are among our staunch friends and patrons. All that our, assailant in “Appeal to Treason” is after is to gain the ap- plause of the ignorant and vicious classes, and pose as a hero before them, but the hogwash and idiotic drivel of bis venomous pen will only recoil upon his own head. The little attacks of stomach trouble and stomach disorders will undoubledly lead to chronic dyspepsia unless you take something for a sufficient time to strengthen the stomach and give it a chance to get well. Ifyou take Kodol in the beginning, the bad attacks of Dyspepsia will be avoided, but if you allow these little attacks to go unheed- ed it will take Kodol a longer time to put your stomach in good condition again. Get a bottle of Kodol today. Sold by E. H. Miller. 9-1 Ir the donkey is to be retired as the emblem of the Democratic party, why not give the parrot a trial?

Wagner's Livery Barn and Office Building go Up in Smoke. On Monday evening at about 9:45 o'clock, fire was discovered in the hay- mow of Frank Wagner's large livery barn, located on the rear end of his residence lot on North Grant street, and although any quantity of help ar- rived immedialely after the alarm was raised, the flames spread so rapidly that it was apparent from the start that the building could not be saved. The horses were immediately released from their stalls, and were gotten out of the burning building just in the nick of time to save them. The buggies, carriages and wagons were also saved» but several sleighs, a big lot of harness, hay, straw, etc, were consumed. Another building which stood near the barn, and was used jointly for an office and storage place, also took fire and was conpletely destroyed. Mr. Wagner’s loss is about $2,500, and there was no insurance on the build- ings or contents, we are Sorry to say, which means that the loss is a very severe blow to the owner. Aside from Mr. Wagner's loss, Ed. Brydon and Lawrence Wagner are grieved over the destruction of their fine gardens, which were practically destroyed by the heat and footfalls of the surging crowd of fire-fighters. By valliant work, the flames were kept confined to the two buildings mentioned. Otherwise, a half-dozen residences or more might also have gone up in smoke. The origin of the fire is unknown, unless it is perhaps known to some worthless livery stable loafer, of which Salisbury has a num- ber. ——— ee August time tells on the nerves. But that spiritless, no ambition feeling can be easily and quickly altered by taking what is known by druggists everywhere as Dr. Shoop’s Restorative. Within 48 hours after beginning to use the Restorative, improvement will be noticed. Of course, full health will not immediately return. The gain, how- ever, will surely follow. And best of all, you will realize and feel your strength and ambition as it is return- ing. Outside influences depress first the “inside nerves,” then the stomach, Heart, and Kidneys will usually fail. Strengthen these failing nerves with Dr. Shoop’s Restorative and see how quickly health will be yours again. Sold by all dealers. 9-1 WHICH BILL? A Campaign Poem by John P. Vogel. In this year of Nineteen Eight, The electors will choose a chief magis- trate. They will select one of two. Consider well which one will do. There’s “Big Bill” and “Windy Bill,” ~Conservative Bill” and “Radical Bill,” “Practical Bill” and “Theoretical Bill.” Which one will best fill the bill? History and tradition are very good guide— A study of both may help you decide. Panic! panic! is the Democratic ery, But do they tell, really, why? The panic. already knocked sky high, Was brought upon our country dear. They do not tell the truth, I fear. To arrest “Honest Teddy’s” reforms 0 grand, Wall Street brought it upon our land. To my undecided friend I'll say: Remember Grover Cleveland’s day. What is the record of the G. O. P.? Refer to history and see. 1t freed the slaves, the Union preserv- ed. From duty’s path it never swerved, Gave us sound money, and so forth, And made us great upon the earth. Bryan’s platform appeals to class, Whilst Taft’s is'adapted to the mass. The conflict will be fiercely waged, With stump and press both engaged. When the smoke of battle clears away, May our dear Taft have gained the day. CURED HAY FEVER AND SUM- MER COLD. A. S. Nusbaum, Batesville, Indiana, writes: “Last year I suffered for three months with a summer cold so distress- ing that it interfered with my business. 1 had many of the symptoms of hay fever, and a doctor’s prescription did not reach my case, and I took several medicines which seemed only to aggra- vate it. Fortunately I insisted upon having Foley’s Honey and Tar. It quickly cured me. My wife has since used Foley’s Honey and Tar with the same success.” Sold by Elk Lick Phar- macy, E. H. Miller proprietor. 9-1 Ir would be interesting to know whether that St. Louis girl who suc- ceeded in swimming 26 miles at a stretch ever complains of overwork when she has to help mother with the house work. The footprints of Dyspepsia have been directly traced to the Stomach nerves. When these “inside nerves” must surely result. For this, drug- gists everywhere are supplying a pre- scription known as Dr. Shoop’s Re- storative. First, these tiny inside Stomach, Heart, and Kidney nerves fail. Then gas, belching, Heart palpi- tation, or failing Kidneys follow. Don’t drug the Stomach, or stimulate the Heart or Kidneys. That is wrong. Strengthen these failing nerves with Dr. Shoop’s Restorative. It is the { for help. Within 48 hours ing the Restorative, you the gain. A test will tell.
