many women in the country earn a
little pin money by knitting woolen
socks for sale during tho long win
ter evenings or at other leisure
times. This suggestion 10 made to
them in the belief that IL acted on
it will make their product more in
demand and also bring a better
price. For reasons Of health and
comfort everybody should be cloth
ed in soft woolen underwear from
head to feet in winter. There 10
no other clothing that affords such
protection to the body from sudden
changes of temperature. In tact,
some eminent authorities advise
the use of wooden clothing at all
seasons, it being equally a protsc-
ton against extreme heat and ex-
treme cold from its property Of be-
ing a non-conductor of heat. Light,
soft wooden summer underwear is
coming more into use all the time.
The suggestion is this: At sheep
shearing time, which is at hand
now, retain for carding and home
spinning the colored heeces, for
which, for some unaceountable rea.
son, local wool buyers generally
will not pay 40 much 40 for white

7 OBITUARY. In loving remem-
brance Of Elizabeth Garrard, who
departed this life April oath. She
was rs years and 8 months old.
She was a consistent member Of
the Christian church. She bore
her atfliction patiently, being re-
signed to Gods will. She called
her children to her and, like Jacob
of old, invoked Gods blessings upon
them, telling them to meet her in
Heaven, and passed away quietly.
She leaves ten children-3 boys
and Z girls-and q host of friends
to mourn their loss. After funeral
services at the house by Rev. G. E.
Boots her RENAME were laid to rest
In the Estill burying ground. Her
children will be lonely here with
out her, but may God comfort them
with the thought: "Mother is at
home with Jesus"
Rest, our loving mother rest
Sweetly on the Savior's breast;
Soon we'll meet on Heavens shore
There to weep and part no more.

however, were very difficult chances.
Williams led the local team in
batting, securing two base hits out
of four times at bat, also walking
once.
Gilligan and Allamang were also
in the game with their sticks, each
securing a two base hit and a

Hahn did not seem to exert him

of some very tough places.

VIII Contain Important Changes
ON Ohio River Railroad.
A number of important changes
may be made in the winter time
card on the o. r. r. The through
train service from Kenova to Pitts
burg and return, which WAS estab-
lished at the last change of time,
has proven SO eminently satisfac-
tory that it will be continued with
a number of added improvements.
Among the probabilities is a
through sleeper from Perkersburg
to New York via Pittsburg, and
which, if it is instituted, will Sc
cure for the o. r. r., a great in
crease in the through eastern bus
mess. 1t will be put on the train
leaving this city in the afternoon
and will arrive in New York early
the next morning.
Beside this great improvement,
through service will be established
to Cincinnati via Kenova. This
will prove a big drawing card and
willgreatly increase the Parkers-
burg Cincinnati BUSINESS. This
route will be the shortest and cheap
est and delightful daylight ride
along the Ohio river. General

Make n Good One.

Mr.. l.. e. Smith, the popular
and we'll liked proprietor of the
Blennerhaeset Hotel, at Parkers-
burg, is being extensively doomed
by his friends for the Democratic
nomination for State Auditor. Our
exchanges speak highly of Mr..
Smith in connection with this po-
sition. He is we'll known all over
the State, and his many warm per
sonal friends will make determine
ed fight for his nomination. Be-

Mr.. L. e. Smith.
MIR. Bryan and the Philippine
Question.
The old enemies of Mr.. Bryan
are having their hands full these
days. Their object is to put him
in false light and it is uphill
work. just now they are busily
at work in the effort to mark him
ms endeavoring to embarrass the
Government in it's foreign policy.
Now, although these people Glove
darkness rather than light" the
truth is what ordinary people pre-
fer and the truth is simply this:
Mr.. Bryan, as abundantly appears
by his recent speeches in the West
is not in favor of withdrawing our
forces from the Philippines, for the
simple and sufficient reason that
the United States is at present re-
sponsible to the world for keeping
order in the Philippines. We
have gone too far to withdraw now.
But Mr.. Bryan also says that he
would Eat once declare our purpose
in unequivocal terms SO positive
that the Filipinos cannot doubt it,
to grant them full and complete in
dependence the very moment they
have established stable govern
ment." Mr.. Bryan further declares
his belief that if we should make
such an announcement right now
the war would cease in very short
time. This is Mr.. Bryan's posi-
ton as shown by his recent
speeches and no lover of truth will
justify the classifying of that po-
sition.

states Future.

1t is becoming moro and moro
apparent that men of means all
over the country are looking toward
the advantages offered by the State
of West Virginia as place for in
vestment. Coal and timber lands
are being purchased and developed,
railroads are being projected and
built; oil lands are being leased
and purchased, in fact, capital is
being invested all over the state in
projects of one kind and another
which will bring about such de-
velopment of the states natural re-
sources as>has until recently been
almost unthought of. That West
Virginia has great future is an
assured fact, and that lands can not
always be purchased at the low
price at which they are now held is
very evident.
