We handle the choicest and purest of country produce, and deliver goods promptly. West Salisbury Feed Co. zen of Garrett, Pa., was in our town last Saturday, looking up insurance for a new company to be known as the Garrett Mutual Fire Insurance Com- pany. Mr. Maust says the proposed company has thus far met with excel- lent success, and that he anticipates no trouble in writing enough policies to reach the sum of $200,000, the amount required in order to be able to get a charter for the concern. . The writing paper used by a business house has just as much to do with get- ting orders as prices or the quality of goods. Many a house is judged alto- gether upon the appearance of its cor- respondence. Your writing paper should be conservative, dignified and substantial, if that is the kind of busi- ness you are doing.

Prynn, of the State Police force, who died in a hospital at Shenandoah, Pa., Tuesday night, the 8th inst. At this writing we are unable to give full particulars of his death, nor have we learned anything of the funeral ar- rangement. Sergeant Prynn was shot in the arm, about two weeks ago, by the accidental discharge of a gun in the hands of one of his comrades, as noted in last week’s Star. On the 2nd inst. he sent a postal card to the editor, stating that about half of the bullet had been removed, and that he was about.to undergo an X Ray examination to aid in having the other half removed. He stated further that he was getting along as well as could be expected,and that he expected to be in Salisbury soon, among his friends and relatives. That was good news, and it was promptly announced to many of Ser- geant Prynn’s friends. But on Tues- day afternoon, this week, several messages were sent to his Salisbury relatives (Mr. and Mrs. John Meager and Mr. and Mrs. Geo. James), stating a fire which might have wiped out the entire business section of Meyersdale: “Fire broke out yesterday evening in the basement of the home of George Donges, and for a time threatened the Donges theater, only the good work of the volunteer firemen saving it. Wind blowing at the time threatened to spread the fire, and it is stated that had a higher wind been blowing, the entire town might have been wiped out. “The fire is supposed to have been caused by an overheated furnace in the basement of the Donges’ home, the flames gaining rapid headway. The fire department was called out and prevented the flames spreading to the Donges theater, owned by Mr. Donges, which adjoins the home. Prompt work by the firemen saved the theatre, but the flames did considerable damage to the house. The loss is placed at $1,000.” Addison township reports three sets of twins born within the past few weeks. If you need a pill, take DeWitt’s Lit- tle Early Risers.
