forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that SO many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a c~onstipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupo of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes Internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. tits therefore

On Wednesday afternoon the
Junior Epworth League of St. Paul's
M. E. church was treated to a de-
llghtful entertainment.
The genial gentleman and emf
nent physician, DR.. Henry W. Nc
Comas, kindly brought his phono-
graph into the League, and for an
hour or more highly entertained
the boys and girls, together with
their teachers. The machine repro
duced many choice selections OF
vocal, instrumental and band mu-
sic. The entertainment and in
teresting remarks of the Doctor IN
explaining the mysterious workings
of the phonograph, and introducing
the various selections, served to
increase the enjoyableness Of the
occasion.

return It's thanks to its generous
benefactor and will be delighted to
have him come again.

A Railroad up Bear Creek.


We were informed by gentleman
residing in the community of tn e
Cove that one day last week the rails
for a narrow gauge railroad up Bear
Creek to the large track of pine tim :
Der land known as 1.-The Rights of
Man, had been received in Friends =
vile and that the work of grading
and laying the track would be COM
menced Immediately.
The work is to be done by the
owners of the track of land who will
put a large lumber plant at Friends
vile on Browns Bottom, where
they will manufacture the lum Der
into sash, doors, etc.
This enterprise will be quite
boom for that section of Garrett
county and we hope that it will be
pushed to completion as speedily as
possible.

Mrs. Belle Freeland. of Terra

the Illinois penitentiarY for passing
raised money during the World S
Fair, was arrested IN Clarksburg,
W. Va, few days ago on the same
charge and taken to Parkersburg to
await the action of the United
States Court. Mrs. Freeland came
down to Oakland some time ago
and passed a raised 500 bill on Mr..
M. Boyle. This bill Mr.. Boyle
had changed by Messrs. Hamill g.
Little, who did not discover it was
spurious until it was taken to the
bank for deposit, where it was
detected. She also operated in
Piedmont and Cumberland. Her
husband, Judson Freeland, is still
IN the penitentlary in Illinois, he
having received a longer term than
his wife.

The new dynamos at the electric
station have been placed in position
4 and tested, working very satisfactor-
lily to those interested. The street
lamps were turned on Friday night
retaining the 1900 candle power
lamps. The 1000 candle power
lamps will be put up and used April
lst, the date upon which the new
| contract with the council will take
effect. In this connection it may be
well to- state that new lamps will be
placed as follows: One at the head
of Second street; one at the corner
Of Liberty and Proctor streets; one
I vt the corner of Second and Alder
streetss; one at the corner of Third
and Oak streets; one at the south
end of the Youghiougheny bridge
on Third street; one at the corner
of Green and Sixth streets. With
the lamps distributed as above and
with a few changes as decided upon
by the council the town will be very
we'll lighted up.
Isaac A. Rinker desires to call
the attention of the Dublic
to the advertisement to be
found in another column of this
paper under the caption "We Loan
Money" The Mutual Guar lantee
Building and Loan Association
which he is representing is one of
the strongest new financial institu-
tions IN the country and the largest
new Building and Loan Association
in the east. Its improved methods
and business-like management is
developing it very fast. Its assets
have already reached over $2,000.-
900, which proves it to be positively
reliable IN every respect. The men
that carry it on are responsible
and we'll known gentlemen. This
is good association for the in
yestor as well as for borrower. 1t
has life insurance policy connected
with it which beats anything in
any other association. 1t is good
for both young and old and espe-
cially for the young man, as this
policy natures in Z years, the
others in 8 years. So anyone wish
ing to make and save money rapidly
will do well to invest in this associ-
alton. Those desiring to borrow
or invest will find it to their inter.
est to call upon or write Mr.. Rinker
for full particulars.

Hardware and implements

1896 finds us in our new store
building better prepared than ever
to supply the trade with hardware,
farm implements, stoves, ranges,
tinware, oils, paints, etc., etc. The
greatest possible care has been taken
IN investigating and selectlag these
goods, not, however, to find a low
grade of goods, but to get the very
best at the lowest possible price.
Nearly ali our goods are bought
from manufacturers direct. While
we do not profess to do what others
in the same business cannot, yet we
do propose to give man as much
value for his money as he can get
anywhere. First quality of goods
is generally sold at less profit than
the inferior, but the customer is
always best pleased with the good.
Our wagons, plows, nails, wire,
harrows, sewer pipe, cultivators,
ETC., are shipped IN car loads from
factory so as to save freights and
benefit the customer. We have
now on hand the best line of shovel
plows and cultivators we ever han
died. In mowers the new Cham
pion, also the new Ideal roller and
ball bearing Deering machine; the
latest improved Pennsylvania grain
drill, and three grades of hay rakes.
We can offer to the trade good steel
frame spring tooth harrows at
greatly reduced prices. 1t will
afford US much pleasure to show
goods and quote prices to persons
in need of anything In our line.
Many persons are deceived by send
ing for goods they see advertised at
lower prices than good articles are
worth in the market. The tend
ency of the age is to cheaper goods
rather than increase durability,
hence the necessity of careful ex-
animation before purchasing.
Yours,
SIS j. M. DAVIS & Son.

ENTHUSIASM FOR MISSIONS.
Over One Hundred Thousand Doilars
Raised at Old Orchard.

Over One Hundred Thousand Dollars
Raised at Old Orchard.
Old Orchard, Me-, Aug. 11.-Rev. DR..
A. b. Simpson and his co-workers OF
the Christian alliance prayed all night
for liberal collection Sunday for the
Chinese and African missions. TheiI
prayers, apparently, were answered,
for at the big gathc,ing in the grove
a collection amounting to 500, 500 was
taken up. DR.. Simpson started the en-
thusiasm, DR.. Wilson of New York and
Missionary Lelacheur assisted, and
hundreds in that vast audience depos-
tied on the platform all their posses
sions. One poor woman, rejoicing over
being treated by the laying on of
hands, gave her only dollar, saved by
doing without her meals for two days.
Scores gave $500, hundreds gave SIS, q
dozen $1,000 and few $1,000. One man
gave 100 shares of stock worth today
$4,000, and another turned over his
whole estate, worth $25 600 and agreed
to go TO China as a missionary. A doz-
en- women gave their sons as mission
aries, and in all 100 young men agreed
to go into the missionary field. Watch
es, chains, rings and gold eye glasses
were cast into the big baskets, 10 be
dumped on the platform and the pile
rose several feet high. Among the
western gifts was $500 from Mrs. Charl-
.cn Edholme Of Chicago and $500 from
the Denver alliance.
