Box of 48—25¢. Sold by all dealers. 10-1 Hardly had we written the item to be found elsewhere concerning Richard Newman’s big potatoes. when into our sanctum walked uncle Peter J. Liven- good with eight potatoes raised in his garden that tipped the beam at' 11 pounds and 5 ounces. Newman’s tu- bers are therefore beaten by two ounces, and his largest one by a quar- ter of a pound, uncle Peter’s largest one tipping the beam at 13/ pounds. Next ! Kodol will, without doubt, make your stomach strong and will almost instantly relieve you of all the symp- toms of indigestion. It will do this be- cause it is made up of the natural di- gestive juices of the stomach so com- bined that it completely digests the food just as the stomach will do it, so you see Kodol can’t fail to help you and help you promptly. It is sold here by E. H. Miller. 10-1 And here is big potato item No. 3, We have been shown five potatoes raised by Dennis Wagner, which tipped the beam at 8% pounds, the largest one weighing 2 pounds and 7 ounces, This beats the record, so far, and puts our end of town in the lead for big po- tatoes. However, for potatoes both large and handsome, uncle Peter J. Livengood is easily entitled to first prize, so far. But let us hear from others. It’s up to Stewart Simpkins now. Many people suffer a great deal from Kidney and Bladder troubles. Daur- ing the past few years much of this complaint has been made unnecessary by the use of DeWitt’s Kidney and Bladder Pills. They are antiseptic, and are highly recommended for weak back, back-ache, rheumatic pains, in- flammation of the bladder and all other annoyances due to weak kidneys. They are sold by E. H. Miller. 12-1 The October number of The Ladies’ World is without question the best is- sue of that popular monthly that we have yet seen. It is about equally divided between fiction and practical departments, with some excellent special articles thrown in, notably that on The Holy Land of To-day, by Allan Sutherland; The Boy and His Parents, by Priscilla Wakefield. and What Wom- en Can Do to Earn Money, by Laura A. Smith. The short stories are by Har- riet Rowland, B. M. Burrel, Edith Rob- inson and Anna E. Finn, while there are serials by Mary Mears and Albert Bigelow Paine. The [Fashions and Dressmaking department is notably good in this number, and those looking for pretty designs to make up the Autumn wardrobe cannot do better than consult this. The dressmaking hints alone are easily worth the sub- scription price. Taken »il in ail, thi» is a good specimen of a good magazine. —[New York; Fifty Cents a Year] Drive Rheumatism out of the blood with Dr. Shoop’s Rheumatic Remedy and see how quickly pain will depart. Rub-on’s never did reach the ren! dis- ense. Rheumatism isn’t in the <kin. It’s deep down—it’s constitutional. (Getting rid of the pan. is. after all, what counts.

Sold by all deal- 10-1 ers. Unele Jere. J. Livengood, Salishury’s veteran carriage builder, is one of the many brawny and brainy old men to explode the Dr. Osler theory, which would have it that men are fit only to be chloroformed after reaching the age of 60 years. Mr. Livengood is rapidly approaching his 74th birthday anni- versary, yet he continues to make the anvil ring in a manner that would do credit to angi younger son of Vulean. One day last week a man drove into his shop yard and asked to have his buggy equipped with new tires. In the lan- guage of the late Captain Samuel Folk, the quadruped was forthwith extricated from the vehicle, and uncle Jere. fell to work making the tires. In just three hours and 45 minutes the old tires were removed, the new ones made and pat on in a most substantial manner, the horse hitched up and ready to be driven away, and $5.00 earned by the gray-bearded workman. For an old man of nearly 74 years, that is pretty hard to beat, but uncle Jere. equals it every now and then. Kodol will, in a very short time. enable the stomach to do the work it should do, and the work it should do is When the stomach can’t do it, Kodol does it for it, and in the meantime the stomach is getting stronger and able to take up its regular, natural work again. Kodol | digests all “you eat. It makes the stomach sweet and it is pleasant to | take. It is sold here by E. H. Miller. 10-1 Millions of bottles of Foley's Honey) and Tar have been sold without any person ever having experienced any other than beneficial results from its use for coughs, colds and lung trouble. This is because the genuine Foloy’s Honey and Tar in the yellow package contains no opiates or other harmful drugs. Guard your health by refusing any but the genuine. Elk Lick Phar- macy, E. H. Miller, proprietor. 10-1 ee Another Labor Leader for Taft. Ben Chapin, editor of the Railroad Employe, a labor organ, is out for Taft. This will no doubt call for additional explaining from the great Samuel Gompers, who promised to deliver the solid labor vote to William Jennings Bryan.—New Britain Record. When you have a cold you may be sure that if has been caused indirectly by constipaticn, and consequently you must first of all take something to move the bowels. This is what has made Kennedy’s Laxative Cough Syrup so successful and so generally demanded. It does not constipate like most of the old-fashioned cough cures. but on the other hand it gently moves the bowels and at the same time heals irritation and allays inflammation of the throat. Sold by E. H. Miller. 10-1 Sent to Reformatory for Indefinite Period. William Budd Mason Brown, a step son of Scott Brown, (colored) was ar- rested a couple of weeks ago, on 8 charge of larceny. The crime was committed at Mt. Holly, N. J., about three years ago, when the festive Wil- liam Budd Mason robbed another ne- gro of $93.00. He eluded the officers until a short time ago, when he was ar- rested in Meyersdale and taken to New Jersey. where he plead guilty, and on the 17th inst. was sentenced to the State Reformatory, at Rahway, for an indefinite period. Tickling or dry Coughs will quickly loosen when using Dr. Shoop’s Cough Remedy. And it is so thoroughly harmless, that Dr. Shoop tells mothers to use nothing else, even for very young babies. The wholesome green jeaves and tender stems of a lung heal- ing mountainous shrub give the cura- tive properties to Dr. Shoop’s Cough Remedy. It calms the cough, and heals the sensitive bronchial mem- branes. No opium, no chloroform, nothing harsh used to injure or sup- press. Demand Dr. Shoop’s. Accept no other. Sold by all dealers. 10-1 —_—————— Teachers’ Institute.

COMMITTEE. ve It’s a pity when sick ones drug the stomach or stimulate the Heart and Kidneys. That is all wrong! A weak Stomach means weak Stomach nerves, always. And this is also true of the Heart and Kidneys. The weak nerves are instead erying out for help. This explains why Dr. Shoop’s Restorative is promptly helping Stomach, Heart and Kidney ailments. The Restora- tive reaches out for the actual cause of these ailments—the failing “inside nerves.” Anyway. test the Restorative 48 hours. It won’t cure so soon as that, but you will surely know that help is coming. Sold by all dealers. 10-1 integrity”’— HOPELESS. A Congressman has said that Taft is running on and Bryan from his record, which is not gaudy, but neat. As a condensation, it is perfect. As a truths it is unimpeachable. As an epigram, it is susceptible of no improvement, but Mr. Bryan could do worse. In fact, he could do no better. For, the faster he runs from the issues he has taken and dropped, the further he will get away from them, and—too far he cannot get. At the same time, it is worth bearing in mind that one of his present propositions is to bring back calamity by exterminating all the large corporations, which is to say, what he now advocates is as witless as the Silver lunacy. There are hopes for those who change from bad to good, but none for those who go from bad (o worse.— Brooklyn Eagle (Dem.) a WILL INTEREST MANY. Every person should know that good health is impossible if the kidneys are deranged. Foley’s Kidney Remedy will cure kidney and bladder disease in every form, and will build up and strengthen these organs, so they will perform their functions properly. No danger of Bright’s disease or diabetes if Foley’s Kidney Remedy is taken in time. Elk Lick Pharmacy, E. H.

Beachy reside, must be somewhat of a corn county, judging from two of the fol- lowing items taken from the HEsbon Times, their home paper: The Wagner Commission Co., of Chicago, the great corn specialists, in their corn report, this week, place Jewell county at the head of all the corn counties in the United States. The Wagners rank Jewell county at 100, and with it head the list. B. P. Frost brought in a sample of his corn, Tuesday, one stalk of which measured over fourteen feet in height and bore two perfectly developed ears, the lowest one of which was over ten feet from the ground. Now, “By” isn’t a first class farmer, or his corn would have been at least five feet taller, there would have been three ears on each stalk instead of two, and the lowest would have been at least four feet higher up ; but this sample is fully up to the average of the corn grown around Esbon, and we have given it a place in our exhibit. M. J. Beachy was looking after his real estate interests in Sheridan coun- ty, last week. He returned Sunday and gave in some pretty extravagant stories about how he jumped into the farm work for a few days, while out there, but from the absence of tan on his face or blisters on his hands, his friends were reluctant to accept his re- port without some modification. How- ever, we are afraid that they are not inclined to give him full credit for what he might accomplish as a farm roustabout. “The way he looks after keeping his lawn mowed and his resi- dence premises fixed up, leads us to be- lieve that he gained some practical experience at some time or other, on the farm, and if he saw fit to do so could give many of the younger gen- eration some valuable information along agricultural lines.
