Mamma, the man is lame l heard
him whisper.
1 don't care If he is. You have paid

the stomach and digestive and
nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are exactly akin to the
churning of butter. Is it not appar-
ent then that if the stomach churn is
"sour" it sours all which is put into
it? The evil of a foul stomach is not
the bad taste in the mouth and the
foul breath caused by 1t, but the cor

TIE MAN WITH A CLAIM.

A Pathetic Figure Who Is Regularly
snubbed at Town Meetings.
The most pathetic figure at town
meeting is the man with claim. The
man who has the claim or grievance
goes to the selectmen each spring and
has them put an article in the warrant
bringing this matter up. Some years
he goes into town meeting himself and
urges his claim. In other years for
the sake of variety he will hire some of
the local lawyers to present the matter
In the best manner possible. Usually
the man is listened to. though the
whole thing is horribly familiar to ev-
cry voter in the town.
Then, when all the oratory has been
spilled into their ears, some long cared
man from the back districts will rise
and will drawl with a grin:
"Move we pass over that article, -
and forthwith the article is passed
over with n whoop. And the man is
around next year as usual. 1t is Curl
Gus thing. but the average town ap-
pears always ready to repudiate these
matters of long standing. l have heard
voters admit that certain claims
against their town were perfectly legit-
innate and perhaps ought to be paid.
but they are of the coterie that regu-
larly votes against granting the ap-
peal of the petitioners.
Why?
Oh. well. it's IAN old matter" and
the town is irritated by the persistence
of the man who keeps coming to claim
his own. When town gets set in that
direction. there is no reputation SO
heartless and so constituencies as that
which marks its action. You see, the
blame is so equally divided. Refusing
to pay honest debts is treated as a
Joke. Even the man who at last with
awakened conscience gets up and urges
his fellow citizens to do the right thing
and pay the bill is smiled away as q
chap that means well, but doesn't
know what he is talking about.-Lew
iston Journal.

Robbed Then Shot.

Mr.. Thompson, who lives near
Purcell. was called up Tuesday
night by two men who asked the
privilege OF staying all night with
him. When told that they could
not stay for lack of room They
requested the privilege of camping
near the house, which was readily
given. They then made a request
for some matches and Mr.. Thomp-
son carried some to them, where
upon they covered him with their
guns, then tied him in the yard,
proceeded to the house and forced
Mrs. Thompson to give them what
money there was in the house.
Not being satisfied with that they
went through every trunk or other
receptacle in the house where
money could be secreted. Failing
to find any more money they pro-
ceeded to where Mr.. Thompson
was in the yard and renewed their
demands for money. On being
informed that there was 20 more
money in the house, they shot Mr..
Thompson through one leg infiict-
ing a serious flesh wound. The
robbers have not been captured.
