chase, and the engine will be deliver
ed next week. the road supervisor 8
have heretofore hired an engine, but
the difficulty in securing good ma
chimes at the times they were wanted,
and the expense attached, caused them
to determine to own one one Of their
own. The saving Of the engine hire
and the satisfaction of having it when
needed are ample justification of this
expenditure. Our district road men
now have a fine outfit of improved
machinery, and the work of good road
making will go steadily on.
Road Supervisor L. G. Engle, of
Harper's Ferry district, informs us
that that district has also determined
to purchase a new stone crusher, and
has placed an order for No. 2 eli.
max crusher, which will be delivered
within thirty days. The amount
available for road purposes this year
in Harper's Ferry district is about
$4,000 andit is hoped to macadamize
a considerable amount of the high
ways. 1.-THE new railroad assessment
stands, Harper's Ferry will be the
richest district in the county.

A Straight
Talk on Paint.

To but off painting is UastefHl
negligence.
To use poor PAINTS false ecOnOmy.
Good paint used when needed is
a profitable MVeSfment-not an ex-
pense.
No argument needed on these
points, no investigation-but the
selection of good paint is a prob
lem, and a hard one, too.
Why? Because there is so much
fraud in the paint business. It's
so easy to fool the people on paint.

Ordering Drugs
BY
Tail or Telephone.

We have quite a number of out
of-town patrons who come to
town once in a while, but who
prefer Our prescription work and
general goods so much that they
are frequently ordering by mail.
Then we have quite a few town
customers who, when away for
any length of time, order by mail
of us, in preference to having
prescriptions put up in unknown
stores.
We invite more trade of this
character. We have a special
care in packing for economical
and safe shipping. We make
change by mail just as in the
store. If you send too much
money we return the excess.
This mail order and phone ser
vice is proving satisfactory and a
great convenience to those at a
distance. Try it and see how
nicely it works,
