You will waste time If you try to cure
indigestion or dyspepsia by starving
yourself. That only makes it worse
when you do eat heartily. You always
need plenty of good food properly di-
gested. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the
result of years of scientific research for
something that would digest not only
some elements of food but every kind.
And it is the one remedy that will do it.

Blacks Store No Longer Voting
Precinct Now.

At the monthly meeting of the Board
of County Commissioners yesterday it
was decided to consolidate the two vot-
ing precincts of the Twenty Sixth dis
trict by abolishing that at Black s
Store, which for years has been known
as the old Goth voting precinct. In flu
ture the voters of that district will cast
their ballots at The Plains, or new Goth
district, four miles away, where large
majority of them have always voted.
This reduces the county precincts to
eight, or seven outside the city.

cultivate the soil. The stones are also
used for fences.
They have the thickest and the high
est stone fences you ever saw. There
is really no necessity for them, but IT
is good way to get rid of the stones.
In almost every field at certain inter-
walls are piles of stone which have been
gathsEed up to escape the pillow, and the
patieHt farmer has to keep digging
them out and raking them of all the
rest of his life. That is also the most
unsatisfactory job that can be given to
small boys. They would rather do any
thing than pick up the stones, but fate
has decreed that those who have the
honor of being born and bred in the
land of the Vikings shall begin their
careers in that way. / used to know
a very rich man who was born down in
the eastern part of Maine and ran away
from home because his father made
him pick up stones from the different
fields OF the farm and place them in
piles along the roadside. He said that
he considered it the most humiliating
occupation human being could engage
in. His soul rebelled against 1t, and
for that reason he packed his few be-
longings in a pillow case one night,
went to New York upon lumber bagge
as a stowaway and became a million
aire. His fate should be a warning TO
all the small boys in Norway.

Mystuen, Norway, July 12.-Many of

The buildings on some of them are
seven and eight hundred years old.
Anything built within a century or two
is considered modern. The other day
an Englishman who was looking at a
house to rent for the fishing season
complained that it was too old. The
owner was astonished at such pre-

building on the place had been erected
since 1915. But they are built to stay.
At Borgund, a few miles west of this
place, is a church that was built in

not determine the exact date, and II is

diocese as far back as 1860. They are
carefully preserved for all the inter-
