The following prize composition was
worked out by Michigan youth in
school. The subject was "Man."
"Men are what women marry. They
drink and smoke and swear and have
ever SO many pockets. but they wont go
to church. Perhaps IL they wore bon
nets they would. They are more logical
than women and always more zooIOgi-
cal. Both men and women have sprung
from monkeys. but the women have GER
tainly sprung further than the men,"

Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver
Tablets Better than a Doc

Mr.. J. w. Turner of Truhart, Va,
says that Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets have done him
more good than anything he could
get from the doctor. If any physi-
clan in this country was able to COM
pound n medicine that would produce
such gratifying results in cases of
stomach troubles, biliousness or con-

used in preparing this one medicine.

LAW FOR TRACTION ENGINES.
Its Observance May Prevent Serious
Accidents.

Its Observance May Prevent Serious
Accidents.
At this season of the year when the
threshing of crops is at its height and
with it an almost constant movement
along our highways of traction en-
gines and threshing outfits, it is deem
ed expedient to publish the law gov
erning engines on the roads as follows:
Every traction engine, when pro-
PEELED by steam upon or over any
public road in this state, shall be ac-
companied by at least two men, whose
duty it shall be to so conduct the en-
CINE as to cause little alarm as posi-
BILE to horses, ridden, driven or led up
on such road, and to render at all
times all reasonable assistance to per-
sons so riding, or driving or leading
horses upon such road.
The person in charge of said en-
CINE, at the signal or request of any
person leading a horse, or of any per-
son leading or drying a horse or
horses attached to any vehicle; or at
the indication of such horse or horses
becomingalarmed by said engine, shall
go as far as practicable to the side of
the road, and remain stationary until
the said horse or horses have passed
to safe distance. in the meantime
making as little noise as possible with
the steam.
lone of the men accompanying
such engine shall precede such engine
at least three hundred yards to warn
persons riding or driving upon any
public road, of the approach of said
engine and shall assist such person or
persons in the management of any
horse or horses that may require his
assistance to control the same.
''If any person in charge of any
such engine shall neglect to comply
with the provisions of the three pre-
ceding sections, he shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon
conviction thereof shall be fined not
less than ten dollars, and in default
of the payment of said fine, shall be
committed to jail for not less than
thirty days, or until the fine is paid,
or by both fine and imprisonment in
the discretion of the justice.
''Shall be the duty Of the owner of
such engine to have a copy of the
four preceding sections, and of this
section, posted on said engine, and in
default thereof he shall be subject to
a fine of not less than ten dollars

Assist Prof. McBee.
Miss May Hopkins, of Baltimore, a
graduate of the Woman's College of
that city, and also graduate of the
teachers training school, has been
elected vice principal of the Oakland
Public School to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Mr.. j. 1.
Sollars, who very acceptably filed the
place for two years past.
Miss Hopkins arrived here Satur-
day evening and on Monday assumed
her new duties as assistant to Prof.
j. Frank McBee, the principal.
The school is now thoroughly Or
ganized. Its several departments,
especially in the primary classes, are
very much crowded and to relieve
the congestion in these class rooms it
has been deemed expedient to secure
quarters for portion of the primary
scholars in another building located
in the east end of town. which will
probably be done some time this
week.

Two Homecoming men by the name
of Hohing were arrested at Keyser
last week for hunting in West Vir-

imposed fine with costs of $1,000.
As they had killed only three squir-
rels their hunt proved to be a very
dear one. If the game wardens of
Garrett were as watchful as the Min
eral county authorities, and the fine
imposed as large as Judge Dailey's,
we would soon have a good sized pile
of West Virginia doodle" in our
county treasury.
The first game of Sunday base ball
at Pea Vine Park occurred on last
Sunday afternoon between the High
landers of Piedmont and q picked
nine from Savage and this place. The

game netted the players about $1,000.
