March came in like a lamb, this year,
and it also went out like a lamb. The
fleece for it was furnished in liberal
quantities on Tuesday, but it wasn’t
very warm fleece.

If you have backache and urinary
troubles you should take Foley’s Kid-

1y, as a serious kidney trouble may de-
velop. Elk Lick Pharmecy, E. H. Mil-
ler, Proprietor. 5-1
The W. H. Dill residence property,

As a certain minister sat down toa
dinner, he looked at the fried poultry
and helped himself, saying, “heres
where that chicken enters the minis-
try.” “Hope it will do better than
while in the ‘lay’ work,” said the lady
of the house. Then they all cackled.—
Ex.
Mr. Frederick Wagner, the fourth

in extending congratulations and best
wishes to them.
Foley’s Honey and Tar is a safeguard
against serious results from spring
colds, which inflame the lungs and de-
velop into pneumonia. Avoid counter-
feits by insisting upon having the gen-
uine Foley’s Honey and Tar, which con-
tains no harmful drugs. Elk Lick
Pharmacy. E. H. Miller, Prop. 5-1
J. H. P. Long, one >f Salisbury’s best
citizens, moved his family and house-
hold effects to Coal Run, last week.
We understand he is sorry that he
made the move, and we are sorry that
Salisbury has lost him as a citizen.
James Long is a very fine man, and we
hope to see him return to Salisbury
again.
Harry Anderson and wife bave
moved into a portion of the C. B. Dick-
ey residence, on Mr. Dickey’s farm ad-
joining town. Harry will assist Mr.
Dickey on the farm when not other-
wise employed. That ought to mean
steady employment to him, and that’s
what good citizens like Haery general-
ly aim for.
Children: especially like Kennedy’s
Laxative Cough Syrup, as it tastes
nearly as good as maple sugar. It not
only heals irritation and allays inflam-
mation, thereby stopping the cough,
but it also moves the bowels gently
and in that way drives the cold from
the system. It contains no opiates.
Sold by E. H. Miller. 5-1¢3
W. T. Hoffman, who was deputy
county treasurer during the incum-
bency of his father, Ex-County Treas-
urer Peter Hoffman, made his first
visit to Salisbury one evening Blast
week. We trust he will come again,
for he is one of the best fellows we
know of, and Salisbury always wel-
comes good fellows.
Last Saturday the editor and two of
his sons, William and Theodore, were
treated to a fine mess of maple taffy at
the S. A. Beachy camp, which is being
‘operated this year by John W. Ringler]
and “Zach” Wagner. Our thanks are
due to both the operators of the camp
and the owner, for all had invited us,
and they certainly treated us fine.
Last Friday night about 28 young
people gathered at the home of Chas.
Crossen and family and spent the eve-
ning in general merry-making. It was
a social party in honor of the Misses
Zelma and Blanche Crossen, who de-
parted for Ohio, yesterday, with their
parents, who have decided to make
their residence there for a year at
least.
Yesterday Elijah Livengood, the
maple sugar king, was a business caller
at Tae Star office. When asked how
much sugar his two camps produced
this year, we were informed that tle
crop would total up to about 30,000
pounds. That’s not so bad when we
gtop ta consider that Elijah opened his
camps rather late. Besides, he isn’t
done yet.
Mrs. Forsythe, a sister of Wm. Frye,
died at the home of her brother,on Ord
street, at an early hour last Friday
morning. Deceased was aged 23 years,
and is survived by two little children.
The children have been adopted by
Edward Engle and John Burkhard.
The funeral of the mother took place
Saturday afternoon. Death was caused
by tuberculosis.
We often wonder how any person
can be persuaded into taking anything
but Foley’s Honey and Tar for coughs,
colds and lung trouble. Do not be
fooled into accepting ‘own make” or
other substitutes. The genuine con-
tains no harmful drugs, and isin a yel-
low package. Elk Lick Pharmacy, E.
H. Miller, Proprietor. 5-1
Samuel A. Philson, one of the oldest
and best known citizens of Berlin, died
at his residence in that town, last
Saturday evening, aged 78 years. Mr.
Philson was a director of the Berlin
branch of the B. & O. railroad, and at
one time was a leading Berlin mer-
chant. He is survived by two sons, John
A. Philson, a traveling salesman, and
W. F. Philson, a Berlin merchant.
James Gaghagen, of Somerset, ar-
rived in town yesterday evening to
look after his property interests here.
He has rented a farm near Somerset,
and will do some farming during the
coming summer, but will also continue
to supply the people of Somerset with
coal. May more and more prosperity
be his, for he is a good fellow and has
the regular Andrew Jackson quality of
backbone.
Yesterday Chas. Crossen and family
left for Talmage,
Akron. They will locate ona farm
near Talmage, where Mr. Crossen will
follow tilling the soil. We wish the
Ohio, a town near |
family much success in their new lo-
cation, but regret that they are no
longer residents of Elk Lick. Mr. Cros-
sen has not sold his Elk Lick home,
however, and some time we hope to see
the family return.
C. W. Shanaberger, erecting electric-
al engineer for the Pennsylvania &
Maryland Street Railway Company,
recently returned from Mt. Vernon, N.
Y., where he went to purchase several
cars for the P. & M. Mr. Shanaberger
succeeded in securing two of the latest
style cars, and one of them is now at
Boynton. As the P.& M. is to be ex-
tended northward, the coming sum-
mer, moré cars will be needed.
We have on file, for publication, a
very interesting article from the able
pen of Dr. T. F. Livengood, of Eliza-
beth, N. J., concerning the two grand
old educators, Profs. Jost J. and Joseph
J. Stutzman, two men to whom Somer-
set county owes a large debt of grati-
tude. The article will
soon as we have the available space re-
quired for its publication. Our read-
ers will find it intensely interesting.
During the spring every one would
be benefited by taking Foley's Kidney
Remedy. It furnishes a needed tonic
to the kidneys after the extra strain of
winter, and it purifies the blood by
stimulating the kidneys, and causing
them to eleminate the impurities from
it. Foley’s Kidney Remedy imparts
new life and vigor. Pleasant to take.

prietor. 5-1
Last Saturday the following named
persons, all applicants for the position
of rural delivery mail carrier on R. F,
D. No. 1, to be established at Elk Lick
ou May lst, went to Somerset to take
the required Civil Service examination:
A. L. Lowry, Robt. H. Johnston, Stan-
ley Boucher, Fred Harris, 8. 0. Wiley,
Burtin Blough, Alfred Ringler, Wm. E.
Haning, Stanley Livengood, Elmer E.
Folk and Wm. Short. No appointment
has yet been made.
A very enthusiastic Methodist re-
vival recently came to a close at Jen-
nings, Md. It was conducted by Rev.
D. A. Friend, of Grantsville, who an-
nounces that 67 converts were made.
Others should come running and re-
pent also, for after a while the gang
plank of the Gospel ship will be pulled
in, and then only the fire works will be
open. A new M. E. church is to be
erected at Jennings, and over $700 has
been subscribed towards paying for
the same.
You should not delay under any cir-
cumstances in case of Kidney and
Bladder trouble. You should take
something promptly that you know is
reliable, something like DeWitt’s Kid-
ney and Bladder Pills. They are un-
equaled for weak back, backache, in-
flammation of the bladder, rheumatic
pains, ete. When you ask for DeWitt’s
Kidney and Bladder Pills, be sure you
get them. They are antiseptic. Aec-
cept no substitutes; insist upon get-
ting the right kind. Sold by E. H.
Miller. 5-1
The mutual fire insurance company
in process of formation at this place is
making rapid progress. L. A. Maust,
soliciting for the company, reports in-
surance written up to the amount of
$125,000, with the promise of $25,000
more in a few days. The remaining
$50,000 necessary before a charter can
be secured, will be had, it is expected,
in a few weeks. Efforts are being put
forth to have everything ready for
business by May 1, as will likely be
the case. There is certainly nothing
slow about this company. While they
will seek business wherever possible,
their aim will be to thoroughly work
the Southern part of the county, par-
ticularly Garrett, Meyersdale, Salis-
bury and the surrounding localities.—
