men, now extinct, and antedating the advent
of the Indian. Scientific men call them the

tails. Dir. Graves Heart Regulator was not
known so far back as the time Of these
mound builders. or sun worshipers. as they
are often called, the remedy is, however,
more than 30 years old, and, better still, It
is the only cure for heart disease ever dis
covered. Star.

IpRGl4AND, Cct. Id.
To the Rev. Henry s. Burrage:

Dear Sir:-l entirely agree with you as
TO the evil results Of such excursions, and
have reason 10 know that The recent rapid
increase has heen largely due to the de-
mands made on railroad managers by those
having campmeetings, temperance gather
ings and so-called sacred concerts in charge.
and not to any disposition on the part of
railroad officials to become ,iolators of the
law.
am glad TO have one of the largest and
most influential of oar religious organiza-
tons express It's views in 50 kindly spirit
and cheerGully accept the suggestions made
as 20 the discontinuance Of such trains.
There will. accordingly, hereafter be no cx-
curslon trains run on the Maine Central
Railroad so long as the pr,>en, officials are
in charge.
