1t is difficult to cure a cough or free
yourself from the dlscomforts of cold
unless you move the bowels. Bees
Laxative Honey and Tar acts on the
bowels and drives all cold out of tue
system. Then comes its soothing eff.
feet and strengthening influence upon
the throat and lungs. For Group, colds.
whocping cough and all lung and bron-
chial affections, no remedy is equal to
the original Laxative Honey and Tar.

Friday evening part of the top story
of Tom Browns new elevator was
blown down by the storm. The frame.
work was braced as it is done ordinarily,
the carpenters expecting to begin work
the following morning where they left
off the evening before, not expecting
high wind in the interval. The damage
done was principally time lost in doing
the work over; the lumber was not
damaged beyond few shattered boards.
From the Journal.

A Teachers Union.

q movement is on among the
schoolteachers of Wood county to or
ganize union. The organization, we
are assured, will be along the lines of
trades, unions with a difference to
meet the exigencies of this particular
calling. 1t is hoped that the Wood
county union will form the nucleus
for an organization which will become
state wide.
Undoubtedly if there is any class of
laborers in West Virginia who receive
small pay in proportion to the work
they do it is the schoolteachers. By
the same token there is no calling
which stands so badly in need Of or
ganization. An organization Of
schoolteachers intelligently directed
could accomplish great deal. Its
most effective weapon would be po-
litical one. The teachers of the coun-
try districts are usually powerful in
politics. The number of them break
ing into the legislature is evidence Of
that. Consequently if they would
present a solid front they might be
able to wiring concessions from the
legislature, which it is now impossi-
BILE for them to get. There is no rea-
son why West Virginia schoolteachers
should not be better paid. That they
are not better paid is because legisla-
tive bodies have no respect for their
strength. We see this in the shame
full extravaganza which has marked
every Legislature for the last 20 years
in overpaying an army of useless and
lazy, sometimes corrupt, ward and dis
trict heelers, politely termed attach
es. Some of the money wasted in this
way would help better conditions for
the school teachers The city Of
Wheeling manages to paw its school
teachers fair wages. There is no lea.
son why the State of West Virginia
should not be able to do the same

1t is said that Cole Younger is pro-
noting trolley line between Kansas
City and Jefferson City, Kan, and
is fast growing rich. 1t is under
stood that the greater portion of the
money to finance the project is being
furnished by United States Senator
Stephen B. Elkins, of West Virginia.
Younger during the civil war, when a
member of Quantrell's band, saved the
life Of Senator Elkins, who had been
captured by the band and sentenced
to be executed. 1t is for this reason,
so it is stated, that the Senator is now
helping the ex.bandit to become

Benefit TO MAN
One OF the Greatest Discoveries of the
Nineteenth Century.

There is nothing in the way Of a dis
covery In the nineteenth century that
has proved of greater benefit TO man
kind than that Of two eminent French
chemists, MOrgues and Gauter by
name, who discovered a way TO separate
the medicinal curative elements, of
which there are about fifty different
kinds in the Gods liver, from the oil,
and give TO modern medicine all the
tonic, bodybuilding and curative prop
critics of that grand old remedy, cod hv-
er oil, unencum bered by The oily,
greasy part, which science had proved
of no value whatever, either as a food
or medicIue. Thus they produced Vi
mol.
Vinol is guaranteed to contain in a
highly concentrated form all the me-
dlcinal elements of cod liver oil actin
allv taken from fleSn Gods livers and
wherever old fashioned cod liver oil
or emuiSions will do good, Ninol will do
far more good-for being without oil, it
is delicious to the taste, easily asSimilat-
ed and won't upset the weakest sto-
mach.
Ninol tones up the digestive organs,
creates hearty appetite, makes rich,
red blood and creates strength for old
people, weak women, puny children and
after sickness, and for all pulmonary
troubles it has no equal.
SO strong is our faith in Ninol that
we freely offer to return money in every
case where it fails to give satisfaction.

Echoes of the Fair.
WASHINGTON, ID. @.

WASHINGTON, ID. @.
Sept. ID, 1905.
EDIroR REGISTER Everybody en-
ioyed the fair. Delightful weather,
and meeting friends of years ago-very
pleasant indeed.
Why was not the exhibits larger?
Farmer Joe Engle took eleven pre-
miums on fowls and ask him if 1T pad
him. He said hardly. Eleven pre-
miumS were So and he paid So 90
entrance fees, only So 30 gain-so
think the management better increase
premiums if they want full exhibits.
The arrangement for drinking water
was the finest ever seen at a fair. At
Rockville, Md, fair we had TO buy lem
onade to quench our thirst, but they
had ten thousand people-near big
CITY.
How good a selection was young
VauMeter for a Judge at the fair His
name carries US back l15 years when
his ancestor, John NanMeter, in 1880,
bought 10 thousand acres in our Valley
and bargained to settle 40 families on it
in payment. When remember, | at
tended this young Van Meters moth
err weddlng-a neighbor. | can truly
say and feel time Is rapidly passing.
Thomas Shepherd, founder of Shop
herdstown married Van Meter, also
daughter of LIST. John. Francis Duke
married a granddaughter of Thomas
Shepherd and this is where we get
Duke street in Shepherdstown. Fran
els Duke and VIM. Shepherd were
killed at the siege of Fort Henry,
Wheeling, W. Va, IN, where his faith
er-in-law, Col. David shepherd was
commandant of OHIO county, Va, and
fought Indians for years around where
the city Of Wheeling now stands and
where he had several thousand acres of
land. The father POUNDS village the
son a city.
1t is grand sight to drive from the
fair grounds south over the ridge road
To see the fine fields of corn and big
apple crops-trees breaking down.
Clerks returning from leave in New
York State report small apple crop there.
A clerk lust returned from Nova SEQ
tia says there is an immense apple crop
there-6OO, 900 barrels shipped TO En-
gland from one province and only cost
81 cents freight clear TO Liverpool.
No scale on trees in this section yet.
All this crop goes to England, as there
is no duty, and they would haze to
pay duty if they shipped TO the United
States.
Mr. Harry Blackford got seed wheat
from Indiana and raised 50 bushels TO
the acre on Il l6-acre field. He has
more application for seed wheat than
he can fill. The farmers wagons load
ed with apples were lined up at Oscar
BlackfordS cider mill. They make
about barrels to a 4-horSe load.
Shenandoah Junction has popula-
ton of 400, and | am glad to hear that
all our Jefferson county towns are BOOM
ing. The Farmers National Bank OF
Charles Town has just bought a lot for
$4,000 and will put up new bank
building opposite the court house.
These, with the new telephone lines
and proposed electric car line from
Winchester to Washington, show our
people to be wide awake and up-to-date.
Respectfully,
JAMES NJ. ENGLE.

WEST VIRGINIA ITEMS.

The B. & o. Railroad is planning
to build a new railroad in Grafton
that will cost probably 100000.
The State of West Virginia has
sold its property at Capon Springs,
consisting of couple of springs, the
pool, bath. houses, and nearly 100

death in a horrible manner.
The refinery of the Standard Oil
Company at Parkersburg was de-
