Snyder would say if he could come back
and see the wonderful change that has
taken place at his once familiar haunts.
Forty years ago his old grist mill was the
scene of the neighborhood activities, and
the waters of the Scrabble run were am
pie to turn the wheels that ground the
grain and made the flour for the surround
ing country. Mr.. Snyder was himself an
inventor OF no mean ability, but probably
in his most fanciful visions he never
dreamed of seeing massive plant gen.
Grating the unseen yet powerful essence
that is now so mighty. The gossips that
gathered at his mill could not predict such
a revolution as has now taken place, for
when the old mill was carried away in
the great flood some twenty years ago
electricity was scarcely more than in its
infancy and no one thought of harness
ing the rivers as men are doing today.
II Elisha Snyder's spirit still haunts the
scenes where he was once the central
figure it is indeed pity that his impress
sions could not be recorded.

ACTUAL STARVATION.
Remnants Pharmacy Gives Facts Re-
garding Dyspepsia.

Although indigestion and dyspepsia are
so prevalent, most people do not thor
oughIy understand their cause and how
to obtain relief There is no reason why
people should not eat anything they de-
sire-if they will only chew it carefully
and thoroughly. Many actually starve
themselves into sickness through fear of
eating every good-looking, good-Smell-
ing and good-tasting food, because ii does
not agree with them.
Dieting cannot cure dyspepsia. If we
refuse every article of food that disagrees
with us, before long we have nothing
left, and find ourselves chronic dyspep-
tics.
We are so confident that we can furnish
relief for indigestion and dyspepsia that
we promise to supply the medicine free
of all cost to everyone who uses it &C
cording to directions who is not perfectly
satisfied with results. We exact no
promises and put no one under any obi
CATION whatever. Surely nothing could
be fairer. We are located right here
where you live, and Our reputation should
be sufficient assurance OF the genulneneSS
of Our offer. =,
We want everyone who is troubled
with indigestion or dyspepsia in any form
to come to our store and get box OF
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. Take them
home, and give them a reasonable trial,
according to directions. They are very
pleasant to take; they soothe the irritable
stomach, strengthen and invigorate the
digestive organs, promote healthy and
natural bowel action, almost Immediately
relieve nausea and stomach irritation,
produce healthy digestion and assimila-
ton, and promote nutrition.
A 25-cent package of Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets furnishes IS days treatment. In
ordinary cases this is sufficient to produce
complete relief. In more chronic cases,
a longer treatment, OF course, is neces-
sary, and depends upon the severity OF
the trouble. For such cases we have two
larger sizes, so cents and $l.00. Remem-
Der you can obtain Rexall Remedies in

tailed statement alleging fraud, and de-
cIaring that the recent election returns

A noise like someone stealing chickens
was heard few mornings since by Rev.
]. D. Hamaker, of Strasburg, Va, and
upon hurriedly donning sufficient cloth
ing to venture out into the frosty night
air he found man near the parsonage
chicken-coop receiving choice fowls from
one on the inside. As the pastor ap-
preached, the outside partner OF the in
inside intruder fled, but, equal to the Sit
uation, Rev. Mr.. Hamaker took the place
of the man who had scaled fence with
several chickens under his arm and con-
tinued to receive the hens and ROSTERS
as they were passed out until his carrying
capacity was taxed to its utmost. AS a
large Plymouth Rock made its appear
ance through the aperture the minister
quietly asked:
Don't you think you have about
enough? can't carry any more"
Recognizing if as the voice OF the pas
tor, the thief made dash through the
door and escaped.

and part he placed directly with COM

S2.S5 per barrelfor the entire crop, and at
this price picks, barrels and delivers the
fruit {. o. b. at Shepherdstown. This is
tine price, and is considerably more than
the average price paid in Jefferson county,
There is good deal of complaint among
the fruit growers of this section at the
methods of some OF the dealers, who not
only beat the growers down in price, but
take advantage of them after a bargain is
made. There will probably be a different
method of selling apples by the time the
next crop natures.
During the past summer persons in
this neighborhood have taken from the
Potomac river large and luscious looking
clans, and though there seemed to be no
doubt that they were the real thing, those
who profeSSed to know most about such
shellfish declared that it was not possible
| that clans could be found in the Poto-
mac. Dispute waxed warm over the
question, both sides holding to their opin-
ions tenaciously. The mystery has now
been solved-they were clans all right.
| 1t transpires that few years ago dealer
at Hancock dumped into the river Several
barrels of clans that were supposed at
the time to have all spoiled. There
were some good ones among the number,
however, and they lived and have in
creased to surprising extent. 1t is said
that considerable number have been
taken from the river in the vicinity OF
Hancock, and we are informed that there
are several good banks of them between
Shepherdstown and Dam No. 4. The
Potomac is becoming an up-to-date
stream.
