The Accepted Time.

Very wisely the Piedmont CIV. Va
hd,p,ndcm says
\ city or town =, after all. what we make
it, l. it prosperous? Then is tins spirit due
to the enterprise that prcdominates and
which makes constantly for local develop
mcnt along all lines
If each citizen of Frostburg would feel
it his paramount patriotic duty to make
his town the best i'll the country, it
would not be long before his aspiration
would be realized.
In war great results are achieved by
organized numbers working harmonious
ly, Systematically and aggressively to
the same purpose.
In peace very nearly the same char
acter of effort is necessary, for peace
hath its victories no less renowned than
war;
When, however, some are pull ny one
way, some another, and the welfare of
the whole in many other instances is
subordinated to that of the corporation
or individual there is little prospect for
that town to grow into home for any
body to be proud of.
When Il pole-raising corporation is
given "the freedom of the city," and
when the greatest of all issues i'll an
election turns upon the question of who
shall collect the bailiff's salary, there
isn't room for much hope for that town.
This is good year to begin to do
better.
Let us begin next Monday.

PEELED the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an.
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however,
good your food may be, its nutrl"
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,

TUNNEL UNDER DELAWARE RIVER.
A Great Scheme Advanced 10 Philadelphia by
lntercity Link Railroad.

Philadelphia, Pa, (SpeciaD. A
company which may be OF iar-reachlng
importance has been formed in this
city for the purpose of constructing
a tunnel under the Delaware River,
between Philadelphia and Camden.
1t is proposed to operate steam
railway through the tunnel. Such is
the assertion OF Clarence Wolf, of
Wolf Brothers & Co, president OF
the Intcrcity Link Railroad, a new
corporation
A charter has already been secured
in New Jersey. The company was
incorporated in Camden this after
noon Mr.. Wolf says that the surveys
have been filed and the road marked
in that state. Application was also
made today at Harrisburg for a char
ter in this state. This action seems
necessary because the proposed rail
road in crossing under the river would
cross the boundary line of each state.
The Camden incorporation permits
the construction of the tunnel be-
tween that city and the middle of the
Delaware River. For the Pennsyl-
vania side a permit will have to be
obtained from councils here, the city
holding riparian rights along the river
front.
MANY brokers, together with street
railway men, wondered how the new
corporation proposed to fight the
Pennsylvania, it being generally agreed
that fight" is a matter of course
under the circumstances. A few men
are inclined to hazard guess that the
Pennsylvania, either is on the inside
or expected to buy OUT the new
company in the future.
