ns-A DISEASE WITH A THOUSAND SYMr-
ToMs-Dyspepsia is the most perplexing of all
human ailments. It's symptoms are almost inf
mite in their variety, and the forlorn and de-
spondcnt victims of the disease often fancy
themselves the prey, in turn, of every known
maady This is due, in part, to the close SYM
patty which exists between the stomach and the
brain, and in part, also, to the fact that any dis
turbance of the digestive function necessarily
disorders the liver, the bowels and the nervous
system and affects, to some extent the quality
of the blood A medicine that, like Hostctter' :
Bittcrs, not only tones the stomach, but at the
same t me controls the liver, produces reg liar
habit of body, braces the nerves, puritics the
fluids and 'ministcrs to mind discascf," is
therefore the true and only specific for chronic
Indigestion. Such is the operation of this ia
nous vegetable restorative. 1t not only cures
dyspepsia but also Ill concomitants and conSc-
ull, rrcs. Moreover it is invaluable rs a pre-
vcntive of Indigestion. No one who choose to
take half wineglussilll of this agreeable appc-
tizcr and stomacllc h,bitually three times day
will ever be troubled with oppression alter eat
ing, Nausea, sour cructationS, or any other lndl
cations of q want of vigor in the digestive and
ussinilating organs. The debility and ianguor
sufrrInduced by hot weather are Immediately
a~d permanently relieved by the Btters and
persons who are conStitutionally inclined to look
upon life rs through glass, darkly,"' will be
apt TO take II brighter and more hopeful view OF
the situation under the genial influence of this
wholesome medicinal stimulant. aug l9-colw

The exercises of the examination in
the school in District No 3, North Ches-
ter, were concluded Friday afternoon
before large number of the friends of
the school.
The great proficiency shown by the
scholars is convincing proof that they
have been taught by one who is master
of his profession.
Mr. Geo. A. Weston, the teacher, has
labored with great difficulties in his at
tempts to bring order out Of chaos, and
his efforts have been rewarded with sue
cess. He has proved himself the deyot-
ed and faithful teacher working for the
interests of his pupils.
At the close of the exercises a pleas
ant surprise was in store for Mr.. Wes-
ton, when F. H. Hall came forward,
and, in behalf of the pupils, presented
the teacher with a handsomely bound
volume of the ''Great Industries" of the
United States.

"Roll of Honor" viz.

The next morning the further state
ment was made, (and we may as well con-
meet the statements of both night and
morning together, in order to make a
connected account and do injnstice to
no One,) that the residence of Mr..
Adams, on Williams Street, had been
entered by burglars, his bed room also
entered, his pants taken from the room
and into the wood shed or some part of
the house and the pockets rified of their
contents, or at least of the safe key,
with which the safe was undoubtedly
opened. Now the burglars must have
been more bold in Rutland, than they
were in New York For there in a
where a New York officer would hardly
dare 90, this Boston detective confronts
three of them, has scuffle with them,
they drop their satchel (Which a week
after contained the bonds, watches, etc
with fright and run. While here they
after and before 1926 p. m. watch a
man 90 home, wait till the house is still,
rob the house, return to Center Street,
commit the burglary, set the fire, and
get away, and the fire becomes so far
advanced as to be discovered. The
mere statement Of either proposition
seem too absurd to require more than
a mere mention to refute them. Who
believes that burglars carry around with
them, a week after the act, the proceeds
Of their burglary in satchel, especially
i'll New York
Now these are the facts in the case as
reported and all the facts that are
known, excepting that detective has
been here, and after an interview with
parties, departed for New York, and
after few days returns with the bonds,
etc.
Who robbed and fired the store still
remains an open question. 1t remains
to be proved. 1t is a question that
ought to be settled for the benefit of
parties interested as well as the public.
