sRieb-Mca Deposit.

G. L.Stewart of Rutland has sold what
is known as the Estabrook farm in Sher-
burne to the Pennsylvania Mica and Min
eral company of Philadelphia, Pa. The
deeds we're transferred last week and
the Philadelphia concern has already
taken possession.
This farm contains very rich and ex-
tensive deposit of mica, that fact having
been discovered about year ago by a
mining engineer, who was prospecting
in that vicinity. 1t was then purchased
by Mr. Stewart and was worked to some
extent for time by company formed
by him among number of Rutland cap
italists.
Owing to lack of experience the ven
ture did not prove to be very protita-
bic one and after few months the mica
mines were abandoned. Experts in the
employ of the Philadelphia concern
have been in this town looking over the
property for several weeks, and since

HOW SMOKING affected
BOYS In ONE SCHOOL.
Tabu1nted Statement Of the Result
of Observation Made in Pub
lie Institution.

Some interesting observations OF the ef-
feet of cigarette smoking upon boys in
school We're presented by P. l.. Lord in a
recent number Of the Pennsylvania School
Journal A public school of about 500
pupils was taken as an example, and in
this school it was found that the boys
were very much inferior to the girls III
every way. It was also found that
cigarette smokers
In investigation was ordered to ascer-
tain exactly how far the smoking was 10
blame for the boys inef1ciency and low
moral condition. The investigation eX-
tended over several months of close OBJ
servation of twenty boys, whom it was
known did not use tobacco in any form
and twenty boys known to be cigarette
tiends.'
The non-smokers were drawn by lot.
The report represents the observation of
ten teachers. The pupils investigated
were from the same rooms in the same
schools. No guesswork was allowed.
Time was taken to get at the facts of the
case on the twenty questions of inquiry
hence the value of the report.
The ages of the boys were from 10 to
II. The average age was little over IA.
Of the twenty smokers twelve had smoked
more than a year. and some Of them sew
eral years All twenty boys used cigar
ettes while some of them also used pipes
and cigars occasionally.
The following table shows the line of
investigation and also the results:

The condition Of the stomach bears the
same relation to one 8 health that the
foundation does to the house. Without a
good foundation, tho house cannot stand.
Without a good stomach, the health must
fail.
Digestion will make and indigestion will
break the walls of the stomach Perfect
digestion will build and sustain while
poor digestion will tear down health's
foundation. Tho reason for this is that
the stomach must receive and prepare all
food for entrance into the blood, and from
the blood into the tissues. II the stomach
is not In perfect condition, the nourish-
ment will be improperly prepared-1m-
perfectly digested. and, instead of the
health-giving and straightforward
properties of the food being contributed
to the tissues, stagnation ensues, the.
blood becomes Impoverished and poison
is forced into the system.
The weakest organ of the body gets
most of this poison, because, for want Of
strength. it is less able to resist it, and
as consequence, disease begins to show
itself first in one of the weak organs,
which is usually very important one.
It may be the lungs, liver, kidneys, or
heart, and in the case OF women, it may
be one of the organs peculiar to their
sex. Such symptoms as shortness of
breath, coated tongue pains in the
stomach. palpitation of the heart, fullness
after eating, bowel complaint, ulcers in
the mouth, sallow complexion, constipa-
ton, diarrhoea, dysentery, and sour belch-
ing are all symptoms of Indigestion.
Kodol relieves every symptom of indi-
gestion and restores the stomach and di-
gestive organs to perfect health. This ia
nous remedy has effected a permanent
cure in thousands OF cases Of chronic
dyspepsia, as well as liberation of the
stomach and other serious stomach dis
eases.
Kodol represents the natural juices of
digestion as they exist in healthy
stomach combined with tonic and recon
structive properties. It is absolutely
harmless. perfectly palatable, never doing
harm, always doing good.
This famous tonic is prepared In the
laboratories of E. c. Dewitt & Co., Chi
cago, whose facilities for the manufacture
of medical preparations are unequaled
anywhere in the country.

ENGLISH TOBACCO
SALE In RICHMOND.
First Consignment in the United
State offered Local Consumers
High Grade Goods.

Richmond is one of the worlds greatest
tobacco markets. The Imperial Tobacco
Company of Great Britain and Ireland
realized this when it wanted to introduce
its brands of tobacco into this country,
and, therefore, sent consignm ent to this
city.
The tobacco reached this city last week
and is now on sale at Branch r. Aliens,
who is distributing agent for the for
eigners.
This tobacco is the first manufactured
tobacco to be registered on the customs
books of Richmond.
Imported cigars by the thousands have
been solo in this city, but they came into
this country through other ports
This tobacco is the only tobacco manu-
featured by the English trust that has
been sent to this country.
It consists OF three brands of smoking
tobacco. The Kitty brand, cut plug
manufactured by Mcdonald & Company,
of Scotland. Tontine, long cut. also an
output of Mcdonald & Company The
third brand is Nut-Brown. This is what
is known as a ''shag cut and is manu-
featured by Adkins & Sons, of London
1t was learned yesterday that the Eng
lsh tobacco was selling very well, and
all who used it. the dealers says, were
pleased with the article.
1t is high-grade tobacco; that is, it
is not a cheap tobacco In price.
When asked if the foreign trust would
put cigarettes on the market in this city,
the reply was I'VE are not in a position
to say as present. This is taken to mean
that Rtchmonders may expect to see CT
garettes. the output of an English fac
tory, in this city in a few days.
This Is the first time the Imperial Com
pany has attempted to sell their pro-
ducts in this country, but it has been
thoroughly organizing the trade at home.
The Imperial Company it is said, is in
a better position to fight the American
Tobacco Company in this country than
it is at home, for here it has to pay but
fifty-fve cents per pound custom duty,
whereas if they buy the tobacco in this
country and sell 1t in Great Britain a
