Dyspepsia nearly always arises from de-

is not well the entire system suffers. Con-
stlpauon, bad breath, sour stomach, frequent
headaches, blIousness, etc, will lead to ter
rlble consequences if not treated in time.

FEWER GALLONS; WEARS LONGER"

The secret is out and Middlebhry can
go on living just as if the riddle had
never been asked.
No it can't, either. Middlebury is not
going to be what it was before. Its
houses are going to be brighter; its peo-
pie little more prosperous-they are
going to have some of their money left to
buy other things with.
The answer to the riddle is this: you
can paint building with fewer gallons
of Devoe cad and zinc paint than with
mixed paints, and it will wear several
times as long as building painted with
lead and oil mixed by hand. What will
people do with the rest of their money;

CURED HERD OF FIFTY COWS.

No. HARTLAND, VT
For about four years we had had
abortion in our herd and the loss to us
has been heavy. We raised no calves,
the cows produced only one half their
usual amount of butter. Some died out
right, others we could not get with calf
and we fatted and sold them for less
than half what they We're worth, had we
been able to get them with calf.
One year ago we got five cans of Kow
Kure-5 of the young cows had aborted
within three weeks; we fed your medi
cine and have not lost a calf since. One
of our neighbors has had the same eX-
perience from its use. We keep about
the epidemic its value to us is great.
We certainly think it has.

"RIoT CARTRIDGE" READY.--The
War Department has sent notice to the
Governors of each State OF the Union
that it is prepared to supply them upon
demand and according to their legal
allowances with "riot cartridges" I"
This is new form of ammunition pre-
pared by the experts of the Ordnance
Bureau to enable officers of the law and
soldiers to repel rioters with the least
possible loss of life to the innocent
spectator" The shell is like that OF
the regular shell used in the army rife,
with the important exception that IN,
stead of the long nickelplated and steel
clad bullet two balls are placed IN the
mouth. The design was apparently to
secure something Of greater range than
buckshot, yet not dangerous to persons
at distance. The cartridge is charged
with about "a grains of smokeless pow
der. The balls are made of a mixture
of lead and tinin the proportion of l6 to l
and are slightly coated with paraffin.
The diameter of the ball is 0.S0S inch

HARD ON CONNECTICUT Rev. ii.
L. Hutchins reported to the Federation
of Churches at New Haven, Conn, yes
terday that he has found polygamy prac-
ticed in Connecticut, and an appalling
state of illiteracy, immortality, political
corruption and growing proportion OF
imbecihty in rural sections. He IS an
agent for the Connecticut Bible Society.
Hard cider and the exceptionally poor
state of the public school system were
mentioned as the causes, and, added to
these causes, the growing habit OF inter
marriage between blood relations. In
many towns the churches are deserted,
he says, and Goodness is only tradi-
tion." The town of Ashville was cited
as one place where some of the inhabl-
tants are opium eaters. 81 have three
sons" said Mr.. Hutchins, 'and If
were compelled to make choice of send
ing them to live among these illiterate
people of the northwestern part Of the
State or down in the slums of New Yoik
| would, choose the slums." In public
schools male teachers salary is some
times only 50 week, he stated. He
found IL men teaching schools whose in
come was $40. 39 month. Murder, ar
son and unmentionable crimes are COM
mitted by such people, he says, whose
moral sense has become blighted. Mr..
Hutchins was surprised to find that, des-
pite occasional polygamy and frequent
la1ity of morals, the average number OF
children to family is less in the rural
districts than in urban communities.

Mr.. WISE AGAIN.

Mr.. John Wise is still reiterating the
observation to the effect that "the race
feeling in the South is liable to result in
bloody outbreak of the negroes at any
time, with the present state of things"
He made this prediction in a speech at
Philadelphia Wednesday night last and
repeated lit the next night before the
Middlesex Club in Boston. Saturday
Mr.. Wise elaborated his views to re-
porter in New York. He asked: "Who
knows what the negro is doing at night?
He will not stand the treatment he is
receiving always. The negro lawyer
Hayes predicted the other day at Wash
ington that there would be Nat Turner
outbreaks. When the race war comes,
if it does come, then as awhile man will
be found fighting on the side of my race,
but it is our duty as the stronger race to
prevent it. The negro's feeling for the
white man is hatred Before the war
his greeting was smile and hearty
How dye do, Massa?' Now he passes
you with fugitive scowl. The federal
government has either got to enforce
the law enfranchising the negroes
or repeal it." Mr. Wise continued
emphatically. at must meet the is
sue, not wink at it. If the South
will stop its lynching, cheating and bal
lot-pox stuffing, and come forward in
manly way and appeal to the federal
government for white supremacy, be-
iieve the law would be repealed. The
way the South had dealt with the ques-
ton is degrading. 1t is breeding for us
mongrel race like that of Spain. 1t is
creating degeneracy among my people.
fought in the Confederate army, and
my father was among those who refused
to take the pledge that meant govern
ment with negro electorate. Others
took it, knowing that it was not sincere.
NY father knew they were entering upon
career of rascality that would degrade
them and destroy the integrity of the
southern people. Cheating negroes out
of their ballot became the fashionable
employment of men who call themselves
gentlemen. When | saw avestryman OF
a Baltimore church allow Baltimore
thug to vote without challenge, imper-
sonating his minister, / had enough of
democratic politics forever. The char
acter of southern public men has de-
Perforated until they now have no in
fuence or consideration whatever in
public affairs. Everybody recognizes
them as holding Office by cheating
negroes and violating plighted faith.
Their methods render it impossible for
the best and representative men of the
States to secure nominations or even to
accept them if rendered.
