' Mr tdt Saxtoo MoKlnley, wlfo of
our martyred preelilunt. Wllllaui Mo
Klnley, who wan ansasginated at DuIThIo
during the Pun-American, died at her
Lome in Canton, Ohio, at 1.05 p. m.
Sunday, May 20. Death came to her
without pal 11 or 8ii(Trln(f. She peace
fully ulept away. Mrs. McKlnley had
been an invalid over thirty yearg and
the death of her devoted husband
robbed life of all Its joys and pleasure
for her, and her prayer was that he
might onw8 over into the heavenly land.
Home should be the happiest place
on earth. Full of smiles Instead of
frowns. It should be one blar.H of
sunshine. But it cannot be while
some member of the family circle is
napping, fault-finding and selfish. Do
people ever go more deliberately and
insanely at work to make themselves
miserable than they do when they
deliberately cloud the lights of the
only plaice on earth where they have
any reason to expect anything like
perfect quiet and happiness?
The new law defining the laws and
duties of coroners in the etatfi, provides
that it shall be the duty of the coroner
or deputy coroner In all cases whore
deatb is of a suspicious character to
cause an Investigation of the facts and
an autopsy. In cases of sudden death,
where the cause is not surrounded by
any suspicious circumstances, the body
Of the deceased Bhall be sent linmed
- lately by the police or health author
ities, if death shall occur away from
borne, to the same, or to such relatives
or frtonds as may claim tho body.
These are days when theschomor and
promoter are abroad In the land.
Farmers and others receive circulars
and personal calls from men offering
propositions "sure to make from ten to
a hundrud and fifty f- cent." From
the gold and Bilver minus of the alluring
" west, to rice or rubber plantations in
T-iOutslana or Central America to the
fibre propositions of South America or
the Philippines. Most of them are de
lusions. If they weie paying Invest
ments they would be grabbed up by
monled men, as they are constanly look
ing for profitable, safe Investments.
Such men have means for investigating
and determining upon tho value of
properties. Be careful before you let
go of your money.
Seyeral times mention has been made
In The Star that the cemotery near
Pleasant Avenue, known as tho Reyn
oldsville cemetery, Bhould be given a
name, but the company has not seen fit
yet to give It a name. Now that the
Grand Army Post and Sons of Veterans
bave decided to hold the Decoration
Day ceremonies In that cemetery each
year, and that a large monument is to
be erected therein in honor of our sol
dier dead, we think It is but fitting that
the cemetery be given Borne other name
than the Keynoldsvllle cemetery. Knob
cemetery, Avenue cemetery, or any
other name would be better than Royn
oldBville cemetery, as there are four
cemeteries near town and any one of
them would be a Reynoldsvllle ceme
tery to strangers.
"Quiet Observer" In the Pittsburg
Qazctte-Timea Says: "It so happens
sometimes, and very naturally, too,
flint t.ha Art-eat. anil Innatwu-atlnn ni
a naggy, annoying man brings peace
fulness and cheerfulness to the home,
for there are men, and not a fow, who
are the terrors of their homes rather
than their joys. In a great majority
of instances this could have been avold-
tt .1 t . i. . .
ou ii tuts wuman in tue case naa exer
cised common sense In the selection
of a hubband. Most men contract their
bad habits before marriage, so that
by quiet Inquiry a girl can find out
very nearly the sort of man he is. It
is bad policy to take up with a tippler,
or gambler, or sporting man, with a
view to reforming him. It may bave
been done in a few instances, but they
. are so few that they are not sufficient
to found a rule. You may depend upon
It that j man won't do any more for
you as his wife than he will do for you
as a sweetheart."

There Is no better advertisement for
any community than a good newspaper.
It is an expensive thing to keep a news
paper up to the best possible standard,
but if the merchant takes advantage of
Its advertising columns and advertises
judiciously, It will prove to be one of
the best business Investments they can
possibly make. If the merchants fail
to advertise it is the death blow to
the village. First, the trade of
the village drifts away to other places,
and the large mail order houses; seo-
ond, the newspaper manages to exist
only, and is a poor representative of
the town; third, without a progressive
newspaper the people soon become
antiquated, ossified, almost, and cease
therasolves to be progressive, after
which a process of decay sets In and
it does not take the town long to dry up
and wipe itself from the map. A good
newspaper is of more value to a town
than is generally supposed, but no town
can have a good newspaper unless It
is given proper support. The paper,
however, is always worth a hundred
times more than It costs, and finally
proves to be a large Interest bearing
Investment. Falls Creek Herald.
Wonderful Eczema Cure.
"Our little boy bad eczema for five
years," writes N. A. Adams, Henrietta,
Pa., "two of our home doctors said the
case was hopeless, bis lungs being
effected. We then employed other
doctors but no benefit resulted. By
chance we read about Electric Bitters;
bought a bottle and soon noticed im
provement. We continued this medi
cine until several bottles were used,
when our boy was completely cured.'

While Prof. C. J Scott was in Mead
vllle last wet k he dropped Into the
printing union where the Annual Is
being printed and h.- was Informed
that the job would oh finished in a few
days, so we expect the Annuals at any
time now. All those who have prom
ised to buy one can get them just as
as soon as they arrive. We need to
sell a great many more before we can
cover the expense of having them
printed, and would like fur every
one Interested In the school to buy one
and help the school out. This is the
first thing of its kind ever attempted
at.d we want it to be a success.
The class of 1(107 has stepped down
and out of the limelight and the
class of 1908 will be the actors on next
year's stage. May they equal as near
as possible the achievements of the
class of '07. That Is the best we can
wish for them.
Tbeolass of 1907 has already begun
to scatter away Into different parts.
Aldlo went home to stay for a short
time; John will be the controller of an
iron horse on the B. & O., where he is
working; Blair and Law are in Rldg
way spending their time learning the
tanning business. The rest of the class
are still In town, but If we get scattered
to the four corners of the earth we
will still remember the year of 1907,
with a Bad sigh of recollection.
The school house Is still dolnir
business. Some people are so industrious
though.
