A man talks about owning his business.
But, as a matter of fact his business owns
him. His whole life s regarded by the de-
mands of the business The time at which
he rises, his breakfast hour, the time given
to meals, are all determined by business
obligations. He rushes through lunch be
cause he cant spare the time from bust
ness to eat leisurely He won't take a
rest because he is needed at the store or
Office He is in fact an absolute slave to
business. The results which follow this
slavery are to be seen on every hand. Men
dyspeptic, irritable, nervous, with drawn
faces, and hollow eyes, sit at the desk or
stand behind the counter until they collapse
In fit of sickness, or are taken away by
heart failure. Those who cannot escape the
eXactions Of business will find a friend in
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
strengthens the stomach, increases the
action of the blood making glands, increas-
ing the vitality and physical vigor. 1t
makes men strong and prevents those bust
ness break downs which so often terminate
fatally.

Kitty Knight, in whose honor the steamer
was named, was famous beauty of
Georgetown, who had danced with General
Washington in Philadelphia, and had been
the reigning toast Of the Eastern Shore for
several seasons. In 1913, the British,
under Admiral Cock burn, burned George
town and Frederioktown, inflicting damage
to the amount Of many thousands of dol.
lars. OF the old settlement OF Georgetown,
the only houses now standing are those Of
the Knight family. The story goes that
when the British threw iirebrands into
these houses, Kittie Knight threw them
out again, and that finally, young officer,
much impressed by her courage, as we'll as
her beauty, ordered that those houses be not
molested Tradition has it that this officer
expressed hope that when the war should
end he might return to court the fearless
Maryland belle. She, however, was too
patriotic to think Of marrying any but an
American. Kittie Knight, it should be
added, was the great aunt Of Mr.. William
Knight, Of Baltimore, formerly of Cecil
county.

GracehaMl Items.

On Sunday, Sept 18th, the remains of Mrs.
Amanda Eyler Harbaugh of Eylers Valley,
were inferred in our cemetery on The Eyler
famry lot. She was one of the Moravian s
Oldest and consistent members. being mem-
ber of this congregation for sixty years,
This morning (Tuesday) our town was
again stirred by the cry OF fire, which was only
too true The frame part of small brick
and frame building and one OF GracehaH's
old land marks, on the property OF Mr. VIM
Winebrenncr at the west end of the town,
was destroyed by fl re, it having started in an
old and detective flue. The building was
used as a summer house. The loss was not
large in money value, yet it was hard fight
against greater loss of property, but the vic.
tory was to the fighters, it proved our need
of some organized assistance and modern
impliments that could be adyantageously
used where there is no water supply.
1t scarcely seems possible that the summer
is nearly passed, Graceham has had a fair
quota Of summer visitors and boarders whom
we can believe have all enjoyed their stay
among our people and the pleasing natural
scenes of our locality All have gone with
the verdict that they haye had a good time
ticularly desired On the other hand some
of our home people and friends have gone
elsewhere and the changed scenes have been
equally enjoyed and beneficial.
We suggest solution to the question
which route, Thurmont or Rocky Ridge tor
the Frederick 'Thurmont and Northern Elec.
trIc railroad, come to Thurmont, thence by
Graceham to Rocky Ridge. thus both con-
tending points pacified and De too, with
probable extra bonus in stock contributed
