Rev. IrI r. Hicks 1908 Almanac.

To say that this splendid work of
science and art is finer and better
than ever, is stating it mildly. The
demand for it is far beyond all pre-
vious years. To say that such results.
reaching through thirty years, are
not based upon sound sense and use
fulness, is an insult to the intelligence
of the millions. Prof Hicks, through
this great Almanac, and his famous
family and scientific journal, Word
and Works, is doing a work for the
whole people not approached by any
other man or publication. A fair test
will prove this to any reasonable per.
son. Added to the most luminous
course in astronomy for 1908, forecasts
of storms and weather are given, as
never before for every day in the year
all charmingly illustrated with near
ly two hundred engrayings. The price
of single Almanac, including postage
and mailing, is thirty cents. Word
and Works with the Almanac is $I.OO
a year. Write to Word and Works
Publishing Company, 22O1 Locust
Street, st. Louis, Mo-, and prove to
yourself their great value. 3Stf

JOHNSONS.


Jacob Mckenzie is building new
barn.
William Robson is cutting the tim
Der on George McKenzie's property.
The new Fire Clay Company is
working three eight hour shifts on
their opening near Finzel.
Thomas J. johnson one of our best
farmers recently purchased a corn
husking machine.
Misses Margaret and Alice Finzel.
Sarah Mckenzie and Ida Brown Wis
tied the Misses Burkey, of Cumber-
land.
The schools in No. under the man
agement of Mr.. Smouse, Miss Finzel
and Miss Weimer are progressing very
nicely. Miss Weimer's school being
very large, almost sixty pupils, en-
tirely too many for both pupils and
teacher.
William Mckenzie, of Pennsylvania,
has taken up his residence in Mary
land, occupying the house formerly
occupied by Mrs. Machin.
Our neighborhood was pleasantly
surprised a short time ago by the mar
riage of Frederick Warner, Sr., and
Miss Margaret Nickle, of Frostburg.
Last week the marriage bells rang
out the tidings that Mr.. John Fadely,
one of our enterprising and industri-
Gus young tired of single life conclud-
ed to marry the handsome and ac-
complished widow of Charles Cation
and thus another happy couple starts
on their new pathway of life.
A little daughter of John Groves
fell from a chair Thursday and it was
hurt so badly it died Friday morning.
Charles johnson is preparing to
move his mill on the tract of timber
belonging to Mr.. Wilson.
l recently noticed in one of the Oak
land papers that the B. s. O. would
build its road from Friendsville to
Oakland to avoid the Sand Patch
Tunnel and grade. That would be
jumping out of one trouble to get in
to worse. If the B. & O. wants a
nice route that will eliminate all the
mountains why not build from Sails
bury, Pa, up Piney run to the place
where Woodsides mill used to stand
and then in southern course past
the farm of Mr.. Thomas johnson
down Savage River and join the road
of the Dubois and Bond Bros, there
by eliminating all the mountains on
the main stem of the B. & o. and the
Pittsburg division of the B. & O.
would make an ideal grade, save
double crews and engines on every
hand, it being along the route laid
out by Ex-Governor Thomas only a
much lower grade and could be built
with but very little grading. 1t would
develop a country and would open up
the coal fields of the Casstleman Val
ley, giving a splendid outlet for the
coal.
Messrs. Wright and Frost recently
sold four thousand four hundred and
forty-two acres of land which brought
from six dollars to seventeen cents an
acre. This is splendid land. Mr..
johnson who is familiar with the land
says much of it is worth twenty dol
lars an acre, it has splendid soil and
is well natured and will make good
homes for settlers. Hon G. w. Blocher
purchased five hundred and fifty acres
which he says he will sell on fair and
reasonable terms and as he has a
pretty farm and comfortable home it
will be splendid opportunity for our
young men to secure homes.

The Mobile, jackson and Kansas
City railroad will reach this city

ing of the steel is now only short
distance from this city and the work
will be completed within the next
few weeks. There has been a great
hue and cry about the road, that is
the main line, going to Laurel and
from thence TO Memphis. A great
deal of this is simply rot. If the
road is ever constructed further
north it win be by some other COM
pany, very probably by the Illinois
Central. But there is not the least
probability at present that it will be
constructed any further than Hat

of the Clarion-Ledger. Wilson is

hundred went to heaven by the

the negro problem beats the excur-
sion way on the Southern road.

Talking about twisting the cows

of.the governor beats everything IN
that line that we ever heard of. He
won't blate until be has first consult
ed the republican referee and Hi
Henry. The Vicksbnrg Herald is
trying to induce the governor to do
his own blating and if he does not it
will not be the fault of that paper.
It is noticed that the governor al
ways tries to fortify himself behind
straw breastworks. For instance
he first wanted to consult the legis-
lators regarding therepeal of the val
ued policy clause, and when he found
that it was. not popular he pretended
at a later date to appeal to the BUSH
ness people of the state. He ignored
in this appeal of course the bankers
and the compress people who con-
stitute the business people OF the
state and all of whom advocated the
extra session.

Talking about the natural develop
ments that are going on in this state
reminds us that this development is
not confined to any one industry, but
to all. For instance some counties
are building cotton factories, some
oil mills, and others are establishing
banks with considerable capital. But
it is noticed, that while these indus
tries are being established, the fact
that several counties in the state are
not unaware of the important fact
that they have "a charge to keep"
and therefore are building new and
substantial jails. Jails are very nee
essary. Some people had rather live
in jail than with their wives, and be-
sides there are so many nice little
boys going around smoking cigarettes
and naturally stealing, because the
smoking of cigarettes makes them
steal, that some place has to be pro-
vided for them to keep them out of
the weather and off the streets at
night. 1t is really encouraging to
see that the several boards of super
vIsors of the state are making ar
rangements to build new Jails for the
accommodation of all who may ap-

has gathered together a large crowd

Brother Sullens of the Clarion
Ledge comes out in several columns
of his paper giving his reasons why,
the picture of Adelbert Ames, the
carpet-bag governor of the state,
should not adorn the walls of the
new state capitol building along with
the other governors of the state. We
d id not read the article-being en-
gagged at the time reading the bible
but must say that as Mr.. Ames was q
medicine we had to take at the time
there is no reason why his picture
should not adorn the walls. To COM

mean that he would not make q good

send him to congress or retain him
