Flying Ship In 1709.
In the Eveuiug Post, a London news
paper published in the reign of Queen
A.nne, bearing date the 20-22 Decem
ber, 1709, there is a curious descrip

description. The inventor claimed that
he could travel 200 miles in 24 hours.

ABE YOU WRETCHED IX BAD
WEATHER?
Keeping the Kidneys Well Has Kept ;
Hany Martinsburg People Well.
Many Martinsburg people find that
bad weather brings on a dull pain in
the back, or rheumatic aching, neu
ralgia, nervousness, irritability and
weakness, if, when you get wet or
take cold it -'settles on the kidneys,”
and there is a shivery, chilly sensa
I tion in the back, it shows kidney weak
ness, which is often the beginning of
disease. Deans Kidney Pliis should
: be used persistently until tue cuilly
feeling is gone, and the tiow of urine
is natural. Doan’s Kidney Pills have
I saved Martinsburg people much suf
I fering.
R. S. Gregory .living at 418 E. Race
I street, Martinsburg, W. Va., says: ”1
' suffered with kidney complaint and
backache for over two years. I had
| constant dull pains across my back
! which at times became so severe that
I was unable to work. If I attempt
ed to stoop or lift anything, or any
. quick movement would cause sharp
pains to shoot through my back right
up to my shoulders. I was so weak
at times as to he almost helpless and
if the weather was damp my back
would ache more than usual. The se
cretions were very irregular In pas
sage and of unnatural color. I doctor
ed and used much medicine but ob
tained little or no relief. I finally
procurred Doan’s Kidney Pills at the
drug store now in charge of E. C.
Shepherd and they seemed to go right
to the root of the trouble and cured j
me in a very short time. I made a j
statement at that time recommending
1 Doan’s Kidney Pills and I have hac’
no reason since to change my hig^
[ opinion of this wonderful remedy as
I have not had the slightest symp
tom of kidney trouble since.”

The Farm Labor Situation.
This question has been discussed
pretty freely in most of the agricul
tural papers of late, and various rea
sons have been given for the scarcity
of farm help. While some of the rea
sons have been well put, others have
certainly missed the mark. One very
potent reason why farm labor is so
hard to hold, is that most of the farm
ers discharge their help in the fall
as soon as they are through with the
outdoor work. Unless we try to make
some provision for keeping hired help
on the farm during the winter as well
as during the summer, this question
is in a poor way to be solved. No
man, or any set of men can be ex
i pected to continue to work very long
it any one calling, unless they are
pretty sure of finding employment
here the year through. Many farm
laborers find themselves placed in
his position. At the beginning of win
der the farmer tells them that he has
no more work for them until the fol
lowing spring; consequently they must
seek employment elsewhere through
the winter months, and in th city this
is pritty hard to find, unless one is
willing to stay for at least a year.
This question will never be put on
r proper basis until a change is made
;n this respect. We must not only
provide more permanent work for our
’arm hands, but also a more suitable
place for them to live. A small, but j
comfortable house should be provided |

Do You Expect Your
Share of The Holiday Trade?
a
Expecting and getting are two dif
ferent things.
That you have laid in a,supply of
useful and pretty Holiday goods, at
prices that compare favorably with tiiose
of our rival cities, we, who are on the
inside, are well aware, but, YOU must
CONVINCE the buying public.
Every newspaper and magazine that
enters the homes of our city has many
and varied common sense, straightfor
ward bids for their Holiday trade.
And they convince.
Ask the bearer of the “noxious"
mail order envelope “why not buy the
things you have ordered from your
Home Merchant and save the frieght?”
and hear his answer; “Why, he hasn’t
them, and if he has, will he save me
freight ?”
Will you ?
You have your candle lighted, why
place it under a bushel ?

WORK 0> BRIDGE PIER.
Government Representative on Hand to
See It Done Right.
Ground has been broken on the Mary
land side of the river, opposite Shep
•herdstown, for one of the piers of the
new Norfolk & Western bridge at that
place, and a connection with the main
line of the road on the Maryland side
will also be made. A representative
of the war department was there from
Washington a few days ago to see that
the work is being done in accordance
with the special act of congress.
“PIfT Raff Pouf.”
“Piff Paff Pouf,” B. C. Whitney’s
cocktail is among the bookings sched
uled for the Central Opera House in
i the near future. The piece is said
' to be replete with good music, numer
| ous song hits, witty dialogue, and ar
i fistic dances and ensemble numbers.
It has also a typical Whitney scenic
| environment.

ind if employment. is giveli (luring the
entire year, tiiere is then more en
jouragement for a better grade of men
to do this class of work. The objec
ion raised, that farmers could not go
o the expense of hireing help in the
winter, may have some force as an
argument, but in the great majority
of cases, work of a modified character
could be provided during the whole
year. Every farmer who keeps any
considerable amount of live stock
must have hired help during the whole
year. By raising more stock, work
will he provided which will generally
prove more profitable than some kinds
of summer work, and it will certainly
tend to keep good men on the farms
who would otherwise abandon that
line of work.
