A petition TO build road bridge across
the Shenandoah river near EdinburS il
before the county ceurt. Two points
have been suggested, One near Taylor
town and one near the point where The
presen road from the Fort to Edinburg
crosses the river. The latter point, We
would suppose would be tbs more desir'
able for several reasons. 1t would cost
less money to build The bridge and ap-
proaches, there would be less land dam
ages, and it wOnld not give the Valley
Turnpike Co. an opportunity to collect
heavy tolls from people who would travel
but few yards upon tn DIR road.

TO cut ont coon. and in some way lost
his balance and fell to the ground, strik-

lsrce as 10 crush the skull, and our last
account reports him IN a very critical
condition with but slight hopes for re-
covery.

There are still some boys in this place,
Edinbuig Mt. jackson, and probably at
other points III tie Valley, who still pr
sist in the dangerous practice of jumping
on and ,ff moving trains, and stealing
rides on freight trains. Besides the great
danger to life and limb they are liable TO
severe punishment If caught, and as the
railroad meu and police officers are de-
termincd to take them in il possible it Is
OF ~ matter OF time, and probably very
brief time at that, before sone of them
are hauled up and have their eyes opeEed.

We live IN a country of which the prin
cipal scourge is stomach trouble.

disease, AID. very nearly, more danger

One thing that makes it so dsngsrou,
is that it lie 50 little understood.
I.it were better understood, it would
be more feared, more easily cured, less
universal than it IS now.
SO, those who wish to be cured. take
Shaker Digestive Cordial, because 1t goes
to the root of the tropble as no other
medicine does. The pure, harmless, cura-
tive herbs and plants, of which it is COM
posed, are what render it 80 certain and,
at the same time, 90 gentle q cure.

The surveys have been complstted for
a branch road from the railroad at
point . short distance above Narrow
P asssgs, to the contemplated brick works
on the river East of Edinburg, and the
work of building the road will be COM
menced between the LIST and 15tt of o.
tober The road will cross the Valley
pike on a high trestle near the Luray
road and short distance north Of the
old Hoffman place.
The road will be several miles in length.
The new brick plant, We learn, is to be
put in operation a. soon as possible. and
will tnrn out 40, 900 pressed brick daily,
and give employment to at least forty
hands. II the business pays, of which
there can hardly be doubt, the nnmbor
of hands will doubtless be increased, and
the output greatly enlarged.
Such enterprises as this are of grei t
