Heartburn.

When the quantity of food taken
is too large or the quality too rich,
heartburn is likely to follow, and
especially so if the digestion has
been weakened by constipation. Eat
slowly and not too freely of easily
digested food. Masticate the food
thoroughly. Let six hours elapse
between meals and W hen you feel a
fulness of weight in the region of
the stomach after eating, indicating
that you have eaten too much, take
one of Chamberlain Stomach and
Liver Tablets and the heartburn
may be avoided. For sale by w. j

CORRESPONDENCE.
THE BRAKESMAN'S REQUEST.
SSSssSSSSSsSSSSSSS

I've just been thinking of the time,
AS l sit here at home,
When / shall hear the call-boy's
voice,
With orders for me to come
And go out for the last time
On this old troubled sphere
Where l shall have my ups and
downs
I'll sign the book, don't fear
And when l cross the great divide,
And meet some good old friend,
Who's dwelt since many years before
Where sorrows have an end
| wonder if I'll get place
Upon the golden shore.
Where everything runs smoothly
And serving time is DER;
Where they don't have correspon-
dence
About the damaged freight
w here switchmen are all gentlemen
And trains are never late;
Where engineer will wave just so
To the signals they are given ?
| hope, l pray that some sweet day
I'll run a train in heaven,
Where wrecks are something quite
unknown,
And trainmasters are kind
Where conductors don't talk saucy,
| Which down here is hard to find:
Where everything is up-to-date
And none aristocratic;
Where all the cars have Westing
houses,
And couplers automatic;
Where they never double any hills.
Or have to tote that chain,
And don't run any pick-ups,
And there's neither snow nor rain
Where each and all are under One,
And none are on the hummer.
But Of all that | wish for most
In that far distant land,
Is, should l tread the streets of gold
Aud with the angels stand,
That when register on time
And home | start to go,
The wife and kid to greet me,
AS they did on earth below.
So, when the call-boy comes for me
To journey DER the river,
And | AM asked TO give account
By the kind and loving Oliver,
If [ can find the railroad
In that land that knows no pain
l only will have one request
And that-to run a train.
