Here is a minister who appreciates
the editor: At a recent editorial con-

To save'an editor from starvation, take
his paper and pay for it promptly. To
save him from bankruptey, advertise in
his paper. To save him from profanity,
write plainly on one side of sheet and
send in as early as possible. To save
him from mistakes, bury him. Dead
printers are the only ones who never
make mistakes.
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.

Robt. H. Johnston, who had been ap-
pointed. as rural mail carrier on Route
No. 1, to be established at Elk Lick
postoffice, May 1st, resigned the ap-
pointment, and Wm. E. Haning has
been appointed in his place. Mr,
Johnston would have made an excel-
lent carrier, as he is an intelligent,
painstaking, courteous gentleman, and
the same can be said of Mr.. Haning.
No better man could have been se-
lected than either of them.

Rev. George Lobingier, formerly of
Bedford county, Pa., died at Lincoln,
Neb., on the 12th inst. He was aged
| nearly 78 years. Deceased went to
Nebraska in 1878, and served several
terms as County Judge of Thayer
county. He is survived by his wife,
who is a sister of the late Mrs. Henry
F. Schell, of Somerset, and. is also sur-
vived by one daughter and two sons, one
of them United States Judge at Manila,
P.1. The editor of THE STAR was well
acquainted with the Rev. George Lo-
binger when the latter served as Coun-
ty Judge of Thayer county, Neb., in
1887, and esteemed him very highly.
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-
flammatior. of the biadder, rheumatie
pains, etc. When you ask for DeWitt’s
Kidney and Bladder Pills, be sure you
get them. They are antiseptic. Aec-

ting the right kind. Sold by E. H

. Married, Tuesday evening, April 20th,
at the Reformed parsonage in Meyers
dale, Pa., by the Rev. Dr, Truxal, Mr.
Homer O. Anderson, of Salisbury, Pa,
and Miss Ida Weible, of Holsopple, Pa.
The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs,
Luther B. Anderson, of this place, and
he is a young man of estimable quali-
ties. He is engaged in the baking bus-
iness at Holsopple. The bride is un-
known to us, but is reporied to be a
very estimable young woman, The
marriage was celebrated at the groom’s
home, on Ord street, soon after the
nuptial knot was tied, and a number of
the friends and relatives participated
in the happy event. A sumpfuous sup-
per was served, which was greatly en
joyed by all present. THE Stair joins
the numerous friends of the newly
married couple in extending best
wishes and congratulations.
Jacob Brown, Esq., the oldest lawyer
of the Allegany County Bar Associa-
tion, was recently highly honored by
his fellow barristers, at Cumberland,
Md., who celebrated the 85th anniver-
sary of Mr. Brown’s birth by “calling a
special meeting at which the venerable
nestor of the aforesaid associantion was
present. Appropriate speeches were
made, and Mr. Brown was presented a
purse containing a fine .assortment of
gold coins. The aged lawyer respond-
ed in a speech that expressed joy and
gratitude mingled with pathos. He
was admitted to the bar in 1849, and is
still an active practitioner. Of the 23
lawyers that composed the Allegany
County Bar Association when Mr.
Brown was admitted to it, he is the
only one now living. Jacob Brown isa
man of fine ability, strict integrity, and
a generous, whole-gsouled, kind-hearted
disposition. He is a native of Garrett
county, Md.,, and is probably better
posted on the early history of Garrett
county than any other man now living.
Some years ago he published a book
called *“Brown’s Miscellaneous Writ-
ings,” which contains much interest-
ing matter, principally of a historical
nature, and the work is highly prized
by all native sons of old Garrett county.
The venerable lawyer is a brother of
the late Hansen Brown, a well known
resident of Garrett county who died
nearly 30 years ago. May the remain-
ing days of the venerable Cumberland
lawyer be serene and happy ones.

CURES INDIGESTION.
All Distress from Stomach and In-
digestion Vanishes in Five Minutes.
Take your sour stomach—or maybe
you eall it Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas-
tritis or Catarrh of Stomach ; it doesn’t
matter—take your stomach trouble
right with you to your Pharmacist and
ask him to open a 50-cent case of
Pape’s Diapepsin and let you eat one
22-grain Triangule and see if within
five minutes there is left any trace of
your stomach misery.
The correct name for your trouble is
Food Fermentation—food souring; the
Digestive organs become weak, there
is lack of ‘gastric juice; your food is
only half digested, and you become af-
fected with loss of appetite, pressure
and fullness after eating, vomiting,
nausea, heartburn, griping in bowels,
tenderness in the pit of stomach, bad
taste in mouth, constipation, pain in
limbs, sleeplessness, belching of gas,
biliousness, sick headache, nervous-
ness, dizziness and many other similar
symptoms.
If your appetite is fickle, and noth-
ing tempts you, or you belch gas, or if
you feel bloated after eating, or your
food lies like a lump of lead on your
stomach, you can make up your mind
that at the bottom of all this there is
but one cause—fermentation of undi-
gested food.
Prove to yourself, after your next
meal, that your stomach is as good as
any; that there is nothing really
wrong. Stop that fermentation and
begin eating what you want without
fear of discomfort or misery.
Almost instant relief is waiting for
you. It is merely a matter of how
soon you take a little Diapepsin.

The Latest Ideas For Shirt-Waists.
With the shirt-waists for summer
both standing and Dutch collars will
be very much worn, and although the
latter are certainly the cooler, they are
not always becoming. Wear the style
that suits you best.
Embroidery of every sort is more
popular than ever before. The Wal-
lachian embroidery still retains great
favor with the woman whose time is
limited. The centers of the flowers
and the dots may be worked solid or
e.elet, or in the regular Wallachian
stitch. The embroidery is efféetive,
deveioped in white or color, as best
suited to the costume.
Cotion crepe and checked dimities
are nmong the rew foundations for
embroidered waists this vear. It is
particulary necessary that all work
on crepe should be padded, as the ma-
terial stretches when working. French
knots make the centers of the daises.
The scallops on the Duteh collars are
padded nnd buttonholed. The design
may then be worked either solid or in
eyelet.
The jabots are the new plaited ones,
and may be worn either with or with-
out the collars designed for them.—

Words of Wisdom.
In fact a good bit of
Love is sweet.
it is taffy.
Some men outlive their usefulness,
and others never have any.
Some things go without saying, but a
woman isn’t one of them.
A man must marry before he can
fully realize how many faults he has.
Tell a woman you can read her like a
book, and she immediately gets red.
A little push will generally outlast a
strong pull.
Marriage is a contract, but there are
lots of contract jumpers.
The trouble with the upstart is that
