A disordered stomach may cause no end
of trouble. When the stomach fails to per-
form its functions, the bowels become de-
ranged, the liver and kidneys congested,
causing numerous diseases, the most fatal of
which are painless and therefore the more to
be dreaded. The important thing is to re-
store the stomach and liver to a healthy con-
dition, and for this purpose no better prep
aration can be used thar Chamberlain's

ed.
The opinion of Solicitor E. S. Fogg was
read in regards to the legal standing OF
water works question. He stated that
! the proceedings were null and void, be-
cause the law requires a majority vote at
an election specially called by the petit
ton OF persons owning a majority of the
real estate in the Borough, which cleo
ton had not been held.
The ordinance presented by the Woods
town Ice and Cold Storage Co., asking

OF having Penn street widened. He
stated that he gave the amount because
by the Borough purchasing four feet on
the opposite corner it left room for a %
rod street, besides / #. 5 inches. While
he had nothing to show for the 1 #. 5
inches he thought he had a moral claim
to it as a relief to his cellarway, by hav-
ing donated that amount, when the street
could be established q rods wide, and
that much further from his property.
Mayor EfkintoR stated that when Penn
Street was established the northwest edge
would undoubtedly be located as much as
possible from Mr.. Leaps building be-
cause the purchase of land on the oppos-
lite r would establish the side there
and thus make the establishing of the
street of less Inconvenience to properties
on Mr.. Leaps side and of least expense
to the Borough.
1t was ordered that an order for $3.50
be drawn in favor of John Summerill &
Bro, to pay for the 4 feet purchased to
widen Penn st.
