CHICKENS Took RIDE,--Last
Friday night one of Mr.. Paul
Carrots wagons was sent to town
and the driver was somewhat
startled to find that lot of
chickens were Jumping on the
wheels and body of the wagon
when the vehicle stopped in
front of one of our we'll known
business houses. 1t appears
that the chickens are in the
habit of roosting on the axles of
the wagons and they came all
the way to town before they
began to manifest their presence.
The driver had a lively tim e
catching the fowls, but he
finally succeeded in gathering
them in and carried them all
safely back to Chockayotte.-

years with throwing up food, often two

boxes of the tablets from my druggist

Rev. G. D. Brown. Mondovi, Wis. :
The effects of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab

dinner of boiled beefsteak causes no

Over six thousand people in the State

An Amazed Briton.

The Hon. J. Henniker Heaton is a
distinguished member of the British
Parliament He is known worldwide
because of his able and persistent ad-
yocacy of cheaper international post
age. in the study of which question the
methods employed by foreign nations
to extend their commerce and their
shipping, through postal grants, have
been under his critical and keen re-
view. A few years ago he discussed
the subject of postal reform in the col
umns of the North American Review, y
during the course of which he made
this remarkable statement:
"As a consequence of refusing
S5.OOO,OOO a year in subsidies to native
ship owners, or $50, 100000. the United
States had to pay in the same period
SO, 900, 100000 for freights, while their
mercantile marine dwindled into in
significance
This well-posted statesman knew
very well indeed that his own Govern
ment would never let such an oppor-
tunity to build up a great steam ship
ping of the first class go by, and he
was paying only proper heed to an
amazing exhibition Of American neglect
when he made the frank outburst
which we have quoted.
1t is now said that the amount that
Americans have paid to foreign ship
owners since the Civil War exceeds
twice over, the total cost Of that war
and the amount credited to foreign
shipowners by the most we'll Informed
American experts. is, nowadays, three
hundred million dollars annually-abou1
as much as the total customs and in
ternal revenue receipts of the Unitel
States Government. We need q few

and his ability to graphically express

REMoDELING THE ARMY.
General Miles VIII Urge the Pas
sage of the Bill.

WASHINGTON. Dec 8. - General
Miles expects to appear before the
House Military Committee in a few
days to set out personally the reasons
why he thinks his army bill should
be passed. The most urgent is the
fact that Immediately upon the formal
announcement of peace between the
United States and Spain, the United
States army may be suddenly reduced
almost a third, and at a time when
the need of troops for garrison pur-
poses is still pressing.
This statement does not apply TO
volunteer troops. AS stated by the
President in his message, they, having
enlisted for the war, must all be dis
charged. But when the War Depart
ment, acting under the authority con-
ferred by Congress at the last session,
sought to recruit the regular army to
a war footing, to stimulate enlistments
it pledged itself in a formal order to
discharge, upon his own application,
any recruit who wished to leave the
service upon the conclusion of peace,
although the nominal term of enlist
ment was for three years.
General Miles will refer to the
present prospect of a conclusion of the
negotiations at Paris, and the sigma
ture Of this treaty Of peace as an eyi-
dence Of the necessity for speedy ac-
ton.
He will also urge that provision be
made for the fortifcation of Manila.
