tween Canada and Maine. The gov.
ernments of both Canada and the
United States look with suspicious
eyes upon these stores, and there has
been more or less talk OF joint action
TO prevent the erection of any build
ings upon the boundary line, says the
Brooklyn Eagle.
The line stores on the Quebec Dor
der are usually built exactly on the
boundary line. and are double stores.
The boundary line is marked by iron
posts, and sometimes store Is built
over one of these posts, which pro.
trudes from the middle OF the floor.
There is door on each side OF the
line. with which line the shelves and
counters run parallel. and thus there
is a Canadian store and an American
store, each with its own entrance. On
the Canadian side are Canadian goods.

and robes, Competing, buttons, sugar
and some lines OF hardware. On the
American side are cotton goods, prints,
Yankee notions. tobacco. jewelry. ker-
osene oil, etc. and on this side farm
produce is taken In exchange. The
Canadian and the American goods are
kept each on their own side. and nc
attempt is made to conceal the fact
that both are there. The Canadian
customer can go In at the Canadian
door, purchase Canadian goods on the
Canadian side and go out again with
out having crossed the boundary line
at all, and the American customer car
do the same on his side; but while the
storekeepers keep the two classes Of
goods separate. they do not ask the
customers any questions. and they car
buy at either counter and make theil
exit at either door.
Stores of this kind are chiefly found
on the line between the Province Of
Quebec and the States OF Vermont
and New Hampshire and the north
western part OF Maine, but they are

Sunfower camp No. 536 of the Modern

night passed resolutions favOring
change in the assessment rates of the
order and recommending a plan for the
new schedule of rates. This is a ques-
ton that is causing a ripple of discus
sion to permeate to every lodge of this
order in the land. It is recognized
fact that some change will become nee
essary but q great deal of dissa It's
faction and diversity of opinion is being
manifested in the effort to come upon a
suitable plan for the REIMBURSEMENT of
the rates. The Topeka camp has pass
ed a resolution introduced by W. E.
Pagan. The resolution follows:
BE it resolved, by Sunfiower camp.
No. 536, Modern WOOdmen OF America
that this camp is opposed to the plan
recommended by the committee on rate
adjustment of the Modern Woodmen of

Resolved That this camp recognizes
the necessity for some change in our

providing for the payment of the nat

the member reaches the age OF 81 years,
when the rate shall be 81 per 81 600 on
each assessment called and remain level

The Body Tries to Sweat Them Out

At convention Of medical men in St.

carefully considered. 1t was unanimously
agreed that while coffee does not seem TO

OF course, very different In some the heart
is affected. in others the kidneys again the
