WRONG and RIGHT EATING.
ONE MAKES US WEAK THE OTHER
MAKES Us STRONG.

Wrong eating makes us weak, because it
doesn't noursh us. 1t poisons us, because it
sets up poisonous fermentation in our stomach
and the poisons go into our blood
Wrong eating is eating indigestible food, OR
eating more than our stomach is able to digest.
Right eating is eating digestible food, food
that the stomach is able to digest, food that will
no,lrish you when it is digested.
Right eating strengthens and invigorates the
body, gives endurance, increases weight and re
stores health
Wrong eating can be made right by taking the
Shaker Digestive Cordial. This preparation,
made by the Shakers from simple herbs, roots
and wine, is delicious, refreshing, and strength
ening to the body. 1t is a powerful aid to di-
gestion.
1t does not act by strongly stimulating the
stomach, but with its own digestive ferments
acts on the food in the stomach, and reduces,
instead of increasing, the work which the stom-
ach has to do.
This is why it increases your strength, why IL
will cure you of all the bad effects of indigestion
and of insufficient nourishment, and purihes
your system of all dangerous indigestlve polsons
when nothing else has been found tOrelleVe you.
At druggists. Ten cents for a trial Dottle. -

A Chicago despatch to the New York
Post says: ssThe Grand Trunk has taken
$50, 600 bushels of wheat to Boston for Lei
ter. The nominal rate is 20 cents per 100
pounds. This is not an open rate, the
agents maintainingssthe tariff, but it is
understood that there is an arrangement
by which thesshipper is granted5 a rebate
of 2 1-2 cents The Grand Trunk has al
ways claimed-a differential of PIP cents,
and while not standing out forsit openly
it has way of securing it to its Gown
satisfaction.

BATES COLLEGE.

Under the direction of the physical in
struotor, W. W. Bolster, Jr., the college
gymnasium has been thoroughly repaired
and refurnished. The old bowling ALLEYS
have been rebuilt with new equipments,
several development appliances have been
added, also new furnishings for track
team, practice. The regular work of the
winter term began on Monday of this
week and is required OF the three lower
classes but is optional for the seniors.
Each man on entering college is given
physical examination, for strength test,
as it is sometimes gcalled. The men are
then placed in divisions according to the
results of this test. After the annual in
door exhibition a man may take second
test for the purpose1of changing hisadivis-
ion. The3 freshmen are learning club
swinging.for their2class drill but take a
large partssof s.theirsswork upon the differ
emit development appliances under the
direction of Prof. Bolster The sopho-
mores are using dumb bells, and the
juniors single sticks and broadswords.
On Wednesday and Saturday the work Is
optional, the time being spent in the
various indoor games, basket ball, hand
polo and bowling.
The work for the ladies Is similar to
that for the men. The freshmen take
marching, free hand movements and
club swinging, the sophomores and
juniors fencing and dumb bell exercises.
Special attention is given TO the use of
development. Appliances. Various games
are introduced with work for recreation.
