THE foundations Of the new free Public
Library are all laid. out, and a birdseye
view OF them from h edge of the ex-
cavation gives a good idea of the mag
nitude Of the building. When finished, It
will contain about as much floor space as
the City Hall. and it win be as lofty as
that structure, leaving out the towers and
bird cages.
Experts pronounce the work, so far as
it has progressed, the best that has ever
been done in this city. the New Jersey
Title Guarantee and Trust company's
building being the only one of approxi-
mately equal solidity and finish.
The building WIN be finished next May.
and it will cost much less thar half what
the City Hall footed up.

That Common Trouble. Acid
Dyspepsia or Sour Sto mach.
Now Recognized as Cause of Serious
disease.

Acid dyspepsia commonly called
heartburn or sour stomach, is form OF
indigestion resulting from fermentation
of the food. The stomach being too
weak to digest it, the food remains until
fermentation begins, filing the stomach
with gas, and a bitter, sour, burning
taste in the mouth is often present. This
condition soon becomes chronic and be-
ing an every day occurrence is given
but little attention. Because dyspepsia
is not Immediately fatal many people
do nothing for the trouble.
Within a recent period remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and is becoming rapidly used and pre-
scribed as radical cure for every form
of dyspepsia.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
all druggists for 80 cents per package.
1t is prepared by the Il. A. stuart Co.,
Marshall, Mich, and while it promptly
and effectually restores vigorous d.
gestion, at the same time is perfectly
harmless and will not injure the most
delicate stomach, but on the contrary
by giving perfect digestion strengthens
the stomach, improves the appetite and
makes life worth living.

GRASsHoPPERs IN WINTER TIME.

sGRASSHOPPERS IN WINTER TIME.
Thomaston, March 7.-Dr. F. s. Par
son, dentist in Thomaston, in order to
save a long walk to his home, often
goes "cross LOTS through Peases
swamp. On one of his recent trips
through the swamp lot he was amazed
to notice grasshoppers merrily skipping
about on the dead grass of the swamp.
AS it was very unusual occurrence for
these insects to appear at this season of
the year, the doctor mentioned his dis
covery to several of his friends, who
were quite skeptical on the subject and
rather ridiculed the idea, and intimated
that there might have been good rea-
sons why he thought he saw grasshop
pers." AS the doctor is not accustomed
to having his veracity doubted, he cap
tured several of the insects and exhibit
ted them to his skeptical friends who
at once made endeavors to hedge, and
are now convinced that they as we'll as
the doctor, have seen grasshoppers, and
are making various prophecies in con-
mection Herewith.

no PROHIBIT SPRING SHOOTING
An Important Step Agreed Upon by
the Representatives OF Eight States.

an AHpOftuht ssep hErceu cpOh ny
the Representatives OF Eight States.
| Representatives of eight states have
agreed to try for the total prohibition of
spring shooting, for laws against cold
storage of game. and for gun licenses.
Recently a conference was held in Chi
cago where game preservers met from
Minnesota, Michigan, both Dakotas,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa and Ohio.
With unanimous fervor they will re-
commend to their several legislatures to
forbid any kind Of shooting between
January l and September /, closing the
breeding seasons.
The cold storage proposition Is made
because so long as it is legal to keep
game out of season, the game will be
killed and shipped out of season. Once
it is sneaked into cold storage there Is
no Identifying it. But IL it was unlaw-
full to have it in possession anywhere,
the sale could be as good as prevented.
1t is said that the cold storage business
amounts to little in Minnesota in the
prejudice of the game laws, but that in
Chicago there is large capital invested
in this temptation in infraction of the
law, affecting every state. The gun IL
6ense, one dollar for residents and tWen-
ty-five dollars for visitors from other
states, is already on the books in seve-
raj states. 1t was pointed out at this
conference that it would result in game
preservation where there is little game.
Sportsmen in Illinois would rather de-
vote their money to propagation of
game near home than to spend it for IL
cense to look for game in a neighboring
state.
Especially the game license offsets the
objection that the game laws favor the
rural city sportsman.
1t was further agreed that ali the
game wardens should work in concert
and that laws should be sought by
which a warden in any of the states
should be agent for them all, so that
game from Minnesota, for instance, in
Illinois, should be subject to seizure by
the Illinois wardens.
An attempt will be made to have part
of October and November closed on the
great lakes. as that is the spawning
season for deep water fish. 1t is hoped
that the above propositions will become
fixed laws
