THE SAME BRUIN.

AS William Pecu and Frank, his
brother, were Flooding through an
opening in patch of woods near
Moretown, on Saturday afternoon, in
search of game they were suddenly
startled by a rustic in some goldenrod
not far, distant. They stood perfectly
still for a minute and soon saw a black
bear emerging from behind the clump
and making in their direction. Not g
muscle did they move until the bear,
which had not noticed them, was only
about six feet away when William Pc
cue raised his gun and emptied the
contents of the barrel in the animal s
face. The shot staggered the bear but
to make sure of his death several more
were fired, bringing him to the ground.
That night, the hunters brought him to
the city and sold him to H. o. Kent.
The bear was placed on the scales and
weighed l45 pounds.
Upon examination it was found that
three toes on one paw were missing
and in this connection an interesting
development in the capture, for over
a year and half ago BerL Celley,
who was trapping in that vicinity
brought to Wheelock and Dawley's
three toes of a bear which he found
one morning in one of his traps. There
is little doubt but that this is the
same bruin who nearly fell prey to
the trapper at that time, for the num-
Der of claws agrees with those missing
and the fact that it was in the same
vicinity bears out the theory.

SHE GAINED
THIRTY POUNDS.
MRS. WEBER TELLS HOW SHE WAS
HELPED WHEN DOCTORS FAILED.
She Let Her Trouble Become
Chronic Because She Hesitated
to Consult Her Physician. Par
ticulars of Remarkable Case.

The natural reluctance which every
woman feels to consult a physician
regarding troubles peculiar to their
sex caused Mrs, O. Weber, of No.
1855 South Front street, Columbus,
Ohio, to let her illness run on until it
became chronic, and even the excellent
doctor whom she employed could give
her no relief that was permanent.
She writes AS follows concerning o
case that will interest hundreds of
women and every husband whose
wife is ailing.
81 felt the trouble a long time
before / went to our doctor. perhaps
a year or mo1e. When l did consult
him he told me / had female trouble
and that my ovaries were affected.
felt sharp pains through my stomach
and could not walk across the room
without suffering agonies which cam
not described My head ached SO that
it fairly thumped and at times it
seemed that l would go crazy. My
stomach became so weak that it would
retain only the lightest food. Week
after week | took the Doctors medi-
cine, but continued to feel worse
and worse. On several occasions
was confined to my bed for week at
time. My weight decreased to 102
pounds and | seemed confirmed in

Williams Pink Pills for Pale People

better and the improvement continued
until l was cured. The pains disap-
peaIed, my appetite and digestion

recovered my health and strength and

mended DR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People to several people and |

No discovery Of modern times has
proved such blessing to women as
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie. Acting directly on the blood and
nerves, invigorating the body, regula-
ting the functions, they restore the
strength and health in the exhausted
patient when every effort of the phys
Ioian proves unavailing. These pills
are sold in boxes at 90 cents box OF
SIX boxes for So 80, and may be had
at all druggists or direct by mail

NEARING COMPLETION.

Col. Fred E. Smith said this morn
ing that the windows for Christ
church were expected this week and
when these are put in place the work
of restoration will be nearly COM
pleted. There will remain some fin
ishing of woodwork and wall deco
rations and the installation of the
organ to entirely finish the work. The
organ will not be ready until next
month and the work of finishing the
pew tops will doubtless be postponed
until that is put in. The chu' oh will
be ready for temporary occupancy
within two or three weeks.
The new windows necessary for the
church are Twelve clear story, twelve

front entrance, and the three pane

HAZING At ANNAPOLIS.

Annapolis, Md, Sept. 21.-The in
vestigation into the hazing of Mid
shipman Richard S. Galloway has
given official recognition to the fact,
which is comm only known here, that
hazing is still going on in full blast
at the Naval Academy. The mid
shipmen themselves deny strenuously
that there is any hazing whatever,
but that is simply because they have
changed the name of the practice to
running
AS a matter of fact, hazing in an
extremely severe form is going on,
and it has driven several fourth class
men to the hospital. 1t consists
chiefly Of the use of insulting and pro-
fame language to the under classmen
and compelling them by threats TO
undergo continuous physical exercises
until exhausted 1t is this latter
practice which is sending the boys to
sick quarters. The hazers are about
fifteen midshipmen of the three up
per classes, who are deficient in stud
les and compelled to forego the regu-
lar holiday. So strong is academic
custom that this handful of the dull
men of the upper classes are hazinR
the 315 youths who compose the enter
ing class. The officers are trying to
stir the youngsters to manly resist
ance to such an imposition.

HIS FIRST DAY At SCHOOL
She lost her little boy today:

she lost her little boy today
Her eyes were moist and sweet
And tender, when he went away
To hurry down the street.
She stood there for the longest while
And watched and watched him then
She said-and tried to force a smile
"Hc'll not come back again "
Inside the house, her tears would come.
She sank into chair
And sobbed above the battered drum
And trumpet lying there.
The sunshine stole into the place
1t only made her sad
With thinking of the pretty grace
His baby tresses had.
She minded all his little ways;
She went to see has crib
Up in the attic; then to gaze
At platter, spoon, and bib,
And all the trinkets he had thought
So fair to look upon
Each one of them this murmur brought:
my little boy has gone.
She wandered through the house all
day
To come on things he'd left,
And 0, she missed his romping play
And felt herself bereft
When he came home, with shining eyes
To tell of schools delight,
She kissed and held HIM motherwise
With something of alright.
This is the pain in mothers hearts
When school days have begun;
Each knows the little boy departs
And baby days are done;
Each mother fain would close hen ears
And hush the calling bell
For. somehow, in it's tone she hears
The sounding of knell.

WOULD AID WEAK HEARTS.
Prof. Loeb Has Solution But Seeks
Way Of Injecting 1t So 1t villa
Act with Certainty.

IF by immersion in certain chem
zeal solutions the heart muscle OF q
dead child can be made to Il
rhythmic %pulsations, is it not possible
that some method of injection can be
discovered whereby the weakened
heart action in certain acute dis
eases can be stimulated long enough
to carry the patient over critical pc
riods?"
This was the problem that Prof.
Jacques Loeb has outlined to his
class in physiology at the University
of Chicago.
DR.. Loeb had been discussing the
stimulating effect of certain solutions
upon various muscles. In-the course
of his lecture he spoke of the expert
ment of kovalefski, a Russian sci
enlist, who had taken the heart of a
child dead a day and a half and by
immersing it in a solution of sodium
and calcium salts had caused it to
resume a rhythmic contraction. DR..
Loeb himself, in his paper read be-
fore the American Society of Physi-
ologists last January, described his
Town experiments, in which he had
|made the hearts of turtles and other
Fold blooded animals, and ever the
muscles of mammals, beat regularly
|by immersion in various salt solu-
tons.
I'm certain acute diseases, for ex-
ample pneumonia" continued DIR.
Loeb, there occur crises in which
the heart action becomes extremely
FAINT by reason OF the cessation of
stimuli from the brain. 1t is in such
crises that death If, now.
the action of the heart could be tenn
porarlly strengthened during that
Crisis many deaths could be prevent
ed. We have shown that certain salt
solutions can stimulate muscle ac-
ton. 1t is now the problem for sci
entlsts to devise a means whereby
these solutions can be so injected
INT the heart as to have the desired
cumulative effect. When they do
nat we can save many lives"
oirn1lar experiments to that of
hovalefski are being carried on at
.he University of Chicago, but defin-
lte results are not yet available. DR..

ing some of the experiments, is at
