Teachers Examinations.

County superintendent Ed A.
Browning conducted examinations
here ON Friday and Saturday last for
teachers taking first and second grade
certificates. Eighty applicants for
certificates were examined. OF this
number twentythree took the first
grade examination which includes all
the higher studies. As none of the
papers of those taking the examina-
ton have yet been passed upon by
the board the averages cannot at this
time be given, although indications
point toward success for many of the
applicants.

An Immense Range.

Recently the well known hardware
merchants and stove dealers of Oak
land, Messrs j. NJ. Davis and Sons. in
stalled in the Loeb Lynn Heights Ho-
tel a mammoth Born Steel French
range with all the modern appliances
and fixtures, including a carving
table, steam table. cabinet ovens,
charcoal broiler, coffee and tea urns,
laundry stove and kitchen supplies
generally. The range is probably
the largest in the county. At all
events it is the most complete. The
contract price received by the
Messrs. Davis for the range and fix
lures amounted to nearly $500. The
range is giving excellent satisfaction
and is quite an advertisement for our
home people.

Col. CaSteeI Passed.

Col. d. t. E. Casteel has heard
from the examination which he took,

making very good grade. Nothing
has been heard from the department
in reference to it or to the assignment
which he is to get. This will be
heard within the next week or so
however. He will go into the army
as first lieutenant and be the only
one from this state who has had the

GrantSVille Booming.

Grantsville, Garrett county, is en-
joying a decided boom. Town lots
have doubled in price and are being
sold rapidly and lands in that section
are being eagerly sought by specu-
lators and investors. The prime
cause of the boom is the undeveloped
coal, mineral and timber lands in
that part of the county which will be
opened to the markets of the world
through the building of the Jennings
Bros. railroad up the Casselman riv-
er.-Meyersdale Commercial.

the Fourth of July celebrations held

Extensive Improvements at Stone House
Farm.

Farm.
Mrs. David F. Kuydendall returned
yesterday from a weeks outing at
the Stone House farm, where she with
party of friends, had gone to inspect
the improvements lately made to the
old homestead and outbuildings of
this noted farm. Aside from the fer
tility of the soil and the very valua-
able minerals underlying it, this is
one of the most delightful places in
Western Maryland, situated upon
the National pike II miles above
Frostburg, and high upon the crest
of the Allegheny mountains, contain
ing about 1900 acres of land. This
farm has long been noted as resort
in summer. Pure mountain water
and balmy air, with cool breezes at
night, make it one of the most de-
lightful spots to pass the heated term.
Recently some very extensive improy-
ments and repairs have been made to
the residence and outbuildings. The
interior of the dwelling has been fit
ted up to accommodate few friends
who may be so fortunate as to be the
guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Kuykendall.
Wide porches supported by massive
columns run the full length of the
house.-Cumberlan Times.

PLAIN TALK
To Catarrh Sufferers

Every person suffering from ca
tarrh in it's many forms knows that
the common lotions, salves and
douches, do not cure. 1t is needless
to argue this point or to cite cases of
failure, because every victim of ca
tarrhal trouble knows it for himself
il he has tried them.
A local application, if it does any
thing at ali, simply gives temporary
relief wash, lotion, sa!ve or pow
der cannot reach the seat of the dis
case which is the blood.
The mucous membrane seeks to re-
lieve the blood of catarrhal poison by
secreting large quantities of mucous.
the discharge sometimes closing up
the nostrils descending to the throat
and larynx, causing an irritating
cough, continual clearing OF the
throat. deafness, indigestion and
many other disagreeable and persist
ent symptoms.
A remedy to really cure catarrh
must be an internal treatment; a
remedy which will gradually cleanse
the system from catarrhal poison al d
remove the fever and congestion al
ways present in the mucous men,
hraDe.
The best remedies for this purpose
are eucalyptol, sanguinaria and by =
drastin. but the dilli ,ulty has always
been to get these valuable curatives
combined in one Palatable, convenient
and efficient form.
Recently this has been accomplished
aud The preparation put on the mar
ket under the name OF Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets; they are large pleasant
tasting IozeDges, so that they may be
slowly dissolved in the mouth. thus
reaching every part of the mucous
membrane and finally the stomach
and intestines.
An advantage TO be considered also
il that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets con-
tain no cocaine, morphine or poison
Q Is narcotics, so often found in ca
tarrh powders, and the use of which
of en- entails habit more dangerous
than the disease.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold
by druggists at SO cents for full sized
package and are probably the safest
and most effectual catarrh cure on the
market.
