MEDICINAL
More Harmful
Than Alcohol
Overeating Worst Form
of IntemperanCe.

Ifyour food is undigested, you are IN.
tjerfed, no matter how much you eat.
And the underfed man Is, to the extent
of the undertaking, crippled for the
battle of life. On the other hand,
there is such a thing as overeating.
The harm done by Indigestion caused
by overloaded stomachs exceeds that
from the increased heart beats caused
by the use Of alcohol or whiskey.
Eat as much good food as you need
but don't overload the stomach. III
YOUR stomach is weak 1t may refuse TO
digest what you cat. Then you ought
to use a good digestant like Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure, which digests what you
eat without the stomach's aid. Thls
rest and the wholesome t0nics con-
tanned In Kodol Dyspepsia Cure soon
restore health. You don't have to diet.
Don't eat too much. That's harmful.
But eat enough and Of sufficient varie-
ty. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will digest
It. 1t quickly relieves the sensation
of fulness and bloating from which
some people suffer after meals. 1t
prevents belching and absolutely cures
Indigestion and other stomach troub-
les. Equally good for children.

1t is alleged that taxidermists are
careless in the mounting Of owls. In
museums and elsewhere our wise eyed
friends are set up with three toes In
front OF and one behind the perch on
which they are seated. One who has
observed the habits Of the hooters
maintains that this is incorrect and
that no living owl ever places three
toes in front Of bis perch. How Is

HYsTERICAL YOUNG WOMEN CAR
RIED FROM A DANCE HALL.
Several Scorched by Flames-Big Dry
Goods store mt Albany Badly
Damaged-Other Fires.

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 1s.-The most de-
number of years broke out shortly before
IL o'clock tonight in the Tower & Brooks
Company's Boston store, one of the largest
dry goods stores in the heart of the busi-
ness district. For a time the entire dry
goods section was threatened, and only by
most heroic work on the part of the firemen
were the flames practically confined to the
building in which they started.
There were many thrilling escapes from
death and one fireman was killed and a
number injured. Thomas Ward, pipeman
of engine company No. 1, slipped from the
top of a ladder and fell thirty feet, break
ing his neck.
At the time the fire broke out dance was
in progress In a hall on the top floor of the
burning building. Escape to the street
was cut off by the fast-spreading flames,
and twenty-five young men and women
were lifted out of the front windows and
helped over adjoining roofs. The shrieks
of hysterical women created much excite
ment, but cool-headed firemen and specta-
tors soon carried them to place of safety.
Several women were burned, but none seri-
ously hurt.
The structure was once the residence of
former Governor William l.. Marcy and
one of the historical spots in Albany. Ten
minutes after the fire was discovered flames
were pouring out of every window, and
neighboring buildings were ablaze in many
spots. The Municipal Telegraph Com
pany's building was badly scorched the
windows being shattered by the intense
heat and the frames twisted out of shape
and charred 1t was two hours before the
flames were pronounced fully under con-
troll. 1t is impossible to secure any estimate
of the losses tonight.
