NEW TELEPHONE SERVICE.

The Spy man was informed on good
authority tonight that a telephone sys-
tenn by which the conductor of any car
on the lire will be enabled to call up
the main office, will be installed on the
Worcester & Suburban in the near flu

that the Suburban was considering suGll
step and it Will soon be an accomp-
lished fact. The telephones by which
the conductor can ask for instructions
will be located in the vestibule of his
car and will not necessitate any ad-
rational exposure to the weather.

at the ROchdale engine house this after

PECULIAR POISONS
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN eoDY
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.

Every living thing, plant or animal, con-
tains within itself the germs of certain
decay and death.
In the human body these germs of dis
ease and death Called by scientists pto-
maines), are usually the result of imper-
feet digestion of food, the result of indi-
gestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness,
does not promptly and thoroughly digest
the food. The result is a heavy, sodden
mass, which ferments (the first process
OF decay, poisoning the blood, making it
thin' weak and lacking in red corpuscles;
poisoning the brain, causing headaches
and pain in the eyes.
BAD digestion irritates the heart, caus-
ing palpitation and finally bringing on
disease of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing Brights disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ,
every nerve, depends upon the stomach
alone for nourishment and renewal, and
weak digestion shows itself not only in
loss of appetite and flesh, but in weak
nerves and muddy complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley,
said the best start in life is a sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fair to digest
food properly, because they lack the pro-

hydroohloric) and peptogenic products;

GOOD WORK
Spencer Samaritan
Equipment
WAS MUCH USED.
DR.. f. R. Wheeler Submits
His Annual Report.

Spencer, Feb. .1S.-Dr. E. r. Wheeler
gives the following report of the Sa-
marian rooms for the year 1928. The
whole number of articles loaned dur
ing the year of 1898 was 100. The
number of different families to whom
articles were loaned was ninety-two.
After giving his report, the doctor ex-
pressed himself as follows regarding the
good work of Spencer citizens for the
sick who are unable to be cared for
properly.
How much good was done, how
much unnecessary distress was pre-
vented and how much suffering
relieved or rendered bearable, can
only be conjectured, never computed.
Nearly every physician in town has
awaited himself more or less frequently
of the resources of the rooms, and can
testify to their helpful aid and comfort
to the sick! During the year several
new articles have been acquired by pur-
chase and by gifts of our citizens.
Among the latter is a reclining chair
given by A. r. Kingsley, which was
very much needed

and to contribute as they are disposed
DR. Wheeler then spoke as follows
In regard to another matter regarding
the securing of an ambulance:
There is another matter not in any
way connected with this work, yet
closely allied to it, to which l called
the attention of the citizens a yeal
ago. / mean the need of an ambu.
lance. This want fortunately does mo-
come very often, so that it would no

Recent inquiries have convinced me
that II some charitably disposed person
would contribute the necessary fitting,
and furnishings for that purpose, g

purpose admirably. It's use would moi
