B. & o. S-W. improvements.

Superintendent Brimson, Civil Engl-
neer Archer and Supervisor Riggs, of
the B. & o. S. w, have been in the
city during the past two days, arrang-
ing for the completion of the numer-
Gus improvements at the Union Depot
and in that vicinity.
The work of paving the shed is go
ing on and when finished will add
much to the convenience and safety of
passengers and employees about the de-
pot. The paving will extend twenty
feet into the open space west of the
shed and twenty feet south from the
main building, this part to be used as
driveway for vehicles.
A gang of painters arrived at noon
yesterday and will begin at once paint
ing the train shed and depot inside and
out. Offices, waiting rooms and all will
be made to look as nice as fresh paint
can make them look and when finish
ed the whole building will present a
very new appearance
The old track, No. L. is to be remov-
ed from Second street and thus will
be removed the cause of much COM
paint in the past.
The work of filing the unsighty
holes and removing trestle work on
Butler street, and also filling the space
covered by the long trestle from Sec
Second to Third street. will commence
in about week. This is but the COM
pletion of the Goose Run sewer i'm
provement.
The management of the B. & o. S.
w. have several other important pieces
Of work in view for bettering their ia
cillties of handling passenger and
freight traffic in Marietta, but those
that are now under way will probably
be all that will be undertaken this
fall. However, the work now being
done will, when finished, add i'm
mensely to the appearance of things
in Union Depot square.

"DEATH IN
THE POT"

"Death in the pot" That sentence
condenses the story of a tragedy. A
little family gathering. A fine dinner
cooked in the large copper kettle long
disused and the entire family poisoned
by the accumulated verdigris. The story
was told by the newspapers from one
end of the land to the other. But it was
room forgotten. The moral of it is, that
the purest of food, put into foul vessel,
instead of ministering to life may be-
come a minister of death.
If the stomach is diseased it is like the
poisonous kettle, which taints everything
that goes into it. The symptoms are
irregular appetite, undue fullness after
eating, distressed feeling in the stomach,
of huttering and sinking sensations, pal
pitation, dizziness, ringing in ears, sour or
bitter risings and constipation. Not all
these symptoms may be present at the
same time, but any of them shows dis
ease in the digestive or alimentary tract.
The intimate relation of the stomach
to the blood, heart, liver and lungs
makes it a medical maxim in exploring
the causes of obscure diseases to start
with the stomach" 1t is upon this
principle that DIR. Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal Discovery effects so many and such
remarkable cures. 1t cleanses the stom-
ach and the system is cleansed. 1t in
creases the action of the blood making
glands, and the body is enriched by the
purified blood. 1t strengthens the di-
gestive or nutritive organs and these
strengthen the whole body by increasing
the quantity and quality of its nourish
ment. 1t carries off the poisonous, effete
matter. In this way it re-establishe'
health, banishing the bodily aches which
are but symptoms of the stomach''
condition.
All medicine dealers sell "Golder
Medical Discovery" If they try t.
substitute something else, it is becaus,
something else - pays better. Insis

PAINT MANS STORY.
Enough to string Nest

This drummer travels for . paint houss
and as it was up to him he told the fol-
lowing:
II am organizing q new stock company,
and am going to pass up the travelling
business and 60 to clipping coupons for 9
living. / was in Mexico not long ago. I
think it was the trip before last, when ]
the paint line that have ever seen. was
riding through the most forlorn bit of
country that it has ever been my misfor-
tune to be cast into. came to . little
house. It was very peculiar affair, and !
noticed that although it was adorned with
coat Of red paint, the paint seemed 70
have been nailed on. Inside found little
man working with . mortar and pestle.
asked him about the house and most par
ticularly about the paint. He then told me
that he was an inventor; that ten years
before he had invented what he called A.
bestos paint-a paint that would not burn.
He built a house and laid on 4 thick coat
OF his newly found preparation. Shortly
afterward the interior of the house caught
fire and burned up entirely, leaving the
paint standing. After he had cleared away
the debris, he spread big canvas where
the shingled roof had been and lived COM
fortably inside the four walls of paint for
three years. He then accumulated enough
money to build up the house inside the
paint again. He did so and nailed the paint
on to secure the interior of the house from
falling down. L have lived in it a. you
see it ever SINCE he said. How would
you like to buy some slices of stock in my
invention@

shire, Vermont, North Dakota and Michi-
gan and am now organizing my company.

even some territory"
While the remainder Of the company were
looking for their weapons. the paint man
made good his escape.-Detroit Free Press.

Clay Soil for Pears.

1t is universally agreed that heavy
clay soil is best for the pear. There are
various reasons for this, the principal
one being that clay soil is always rich
In mineral fertilizers, while a sandy OF
gravelly soil is deficient in this kind OF
plant food. But the clay soil, though
rich in phosphates and potash, may not
have them in available form. and may
need a dressing in spring of these min
erals in available form. Trees on clay
may need dressings of available potash
and phosphate in the years when the
tree is bearing. On sandy soil the pear
tree always needs these manures. The
pear roots deeply. SO that it is never
affected by droughts, and in clay soils
it doubtless draws mineral fertilizers
from the subsoil below where the roots
of grain and other crops usually grow.
1t is a great mistake to allow the tap
root of a pear tree to be cut OF before
it is Observation-Disclosures Guilt
