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.

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.

Drive Rheumatism out of the blood

and see how quickly pain will depart.
Rub-on’s never did reach the ren! dis-

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.

the stomach can’t do it, Kodol does it
for it, and in the meantime the stomach

take. It is sold here by E. H. Miller.

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

This is because the genuine Foloy’s

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

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

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.)

sure-enough knocker for ulcers. A bad
one ok my leg, last summer, but

a few rounds. Not even a scar re

Three Kansas Items.
Jewell county, Kansas, where our
friends Mr. and Mrs. Milton J. 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.
