TIE CHRISTMAS DINNER.

In spite of the fact that the word
dyspepsia means literally bad cook, 1t
will not be fair for many to lay the
blame on the cook II they begin the
Christmas dinner with little appetite and
end It with distress or nausea. 1t my

disease dyspepsia indicates bad stom-
ach, that Is weak stomach, rather than
a bad cook, and for weak stomach
there is nothing else equal to Hoods

tite, and makes eating the pleasure it

On Sunday, Rev. T. ]. Ramsdell, pas
tor of the South Paris Baptist church,
read the following letter of resignation:
To the members of the South Paris Bap-
fist Church,
Dear Frisnds:-More than twelve
years ago, in obedience to what l be-
lieved to be the leading of the Lord, l
accepted your invitation to become your
pastor. To-day, in obedience to what l
believe to be the same divine leading, l
wish to surrender again to you the trust
then committed to my charge. Accord
ingly hereby tender to you my resigna-
ton as pastor of this church. The years
that have spent here have been among
the pleasantest of my life. The memory
of YOUR kindness to me and mine will
remain with me as long as life lasts. 1t
is with regret too, that part from the
people of this goodly town, without re-
gard to UNCONVENTIONAL lines, among
whom have made my home for so long.
shall miss too, the fellowship which l
have SO much enjoyed with the other
pastors and churches Of the Oxford As
sociation. May the Lord abundantly
prosper them and the churches OF other
denominations round about, in their
efforts to build up the Kingdom OF
Christ.
But, as is natural, my thoughts go out
especially to the future of this church
Our losses by death and removal during
the past few years, have been keenly
felt; but there still remains good mum
Der of earnest, faithful disciples OF the
Lord Jesus. There is a grand oppor
tunity for work before you. ! believt
that Gods blessing will rest richly upoI
this church in the coming years, ano
that you will grid yourselves anew 10
the work appointed to you by thu
church's Head and Lord. l desire thai
my resignation shall take effect the las
Sunday of the present month.
| Your pastor and friend,
| THOMAS j. RAMsDELL.
Mr.. Ramsdell will spend the winter Will

afternoon. As everybody knows, the
street below that point is narrow, and II
the track is plOwed out the snow must
be hauled off; even then the street for a
short distance is in none too good shape
for travel by team. There was some OPP
position to having his piece of track
powed out, and it was decided that the
ear would stop at Church Street for the
rest of the winter. A little later the
desire of most of the people to have the
track opened to the square manifested
itself in petition which was circulated
here and generally signed. The response
was prompt, and on Friday Superintend
ent Jones put crew at work clearing
the track. The car now runs down tf

A good number of the voters in thu
village corporation assembled Tuesday
evening as requested to hear what Hon
George Z. Macomber of the Oxfort
Light Co. had to present for their con
sheraton. The substance of Mr.. Ma
eOmber's remarks was that there Is nc
money in running the lighting plant TO
the two towns at present prices. Whei
the company took hold Of it, they sup
posed there was an ample supply
water, but shortage of water had oblige'
them TO put in a steam plant, and to rul
ii a portion of the time at large expense
The company had never paid dividend
nor had the officers received any COM
pensation for their services. He wishe
to be fair with the people, but it seemed
considering the low price at whic
lights had been furnished, that II tn
company was to continue lighting tn
streets larger price should be paid. d
suggested that a committee of the cit
zens should be chosen to investigate tn
cost Of lighting in other places, and NAL
report later. A few questions wei
asked Mr.. Macomber relative to tn
matter, but no disposition to pay an II
4 creased price or to choose q committe
was manifested, and no action OF an
sort was taken.
