Blaze in Mechanicsburg About 10
p. NJ. Does Considerable Damage.

The grocery of Mr.. Pete Bulger and
the office of Dr. j. $. Troutman, located
at the south end of the Third street
bridge in Mechanicsburg, were partially
burned last night about 10 o'clock.
The fire was discovered and an alarm
sent in. Departments Nos. 2 and 4 re-
sponded and soon had the blaze extin-
guished. The fire originated in the rear
of the grocery from causes unknown, as
there had been no fire about the store in
that portion. The fire burned the rear
of the grocery and scorched the office
of DIR. Troutman. The water did the
greatest damage, which will amount TO a
total of $3.50, it is estimated, partially
covered by insurance.
Mr.. Bulger estimates his damage at
$500, and i: not fully covered by insur-
ance. DIR. Troutman estimates his dam
age, mostly by water, at $3.50, fully
covered by insurance.

WHY APPENDICITIS

Why is appendicitis so common to.
day9
Because we have got into the PERM
cious habit OF eating too fast.
Dr. Curtis, the great authority on this
disease, says; Appendicitis often fol-
lows the eating Of very hasty, or par
ticularly large or indigestible meal"
After carelessly following a foolish
custom, you can insure your safety by
taking stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
It is an accepted scientific truth,
which admits of no dispute, that if you
viii only keep your digestive apparatus
in good order, you will never suffer from
this dread disease, which at best, means
a weakening operation, with long weeks
wasted in bed, and big doctors and sur
geon's bills to pay as souvenirs.
Keep your appendix in health by the
proper use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab.
let's, whenever you have laid yourself
open to danger by overeating, and upon
the least sign of stomach or intestinal
trouble, for otherwise, at any time, this
dangerous disease may lay you low.
The curative influence OF this great
medicine is quickly shown in the gentle,
soothing effect it has on all inhamed
conditions Of any part Of the digestive
tract.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets tone all
these parts up to a proper condition of
perfect health, and regulate their func.
tIons into a proper working state.
They also make away with all the
causes of irritation, inflammation or in
digestion, by helping to dissolve, digest
and assimilate, or put to proper use, all
the food which is lying around in odd
corners of your digestive apparatus, fer
menting, rotting and curdling, like 81
much garbage in dirty sink.
In these natural and perfectly simpl
ways, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets restor'
ali sufferers, from any form of dyspep
TIC trouble, TO health.
They are safe and reliable. They nevel
fail to relieve and cure, quickly and per.
manently.
Use them, and you need never worry
about your appendix vermiformix.

BOARD OF HEALTH
A Mild Call-DOwn for the Hop
kinsville Board.
State Organization Threatens
Quarantine Because OF Smallpox.

Despite the report from the members
OF the county board Of health of Christ
ian county that in their opinion the
smallpox situation was well under con-
troll, the state board OF health, which
met at the Gait House yesterday after.
noon ordered DIR. j. b. Jackson. of Hop.
kinsville, who is chairman of the board
Of health in Christian county. to hold
weekly meetings Of his board until the
state board is satisfied that all danger
Is passed, says the Courier Journal of
yesterday. Christian county has been
infected with the disease for the past
six months, and it has spread to neigh.
boring counties. While the situation is
not one TO give cause for undue alarm,
the state board feels that the disease
should be thoroughly stamped out before
winter sets in.
The number Of cases reported is not
large, but they come from widely sepa-
rated communities in the county, show
ing that the disease has been general.
The county has a large colored popula-
tion, and il is known that many of the
cases have been hid from the officials
and never reported. This has made it
difficult to stop its progress.
DIR. Mccormack, Bowling Green, pres
ident Of the state board, said last night
that the board would insist upon vacci.
nation and isolation Of smallpox pa
tients I'VE do not wish to be com
PEELED to quarantine the county, but if
smallpox is not soon stamped out there
it may be necessary TO take action Of
this sort.
THE drouth has had very little inhn.
cnce upon the general health of the
state and only in a few districts where
the wells and springs are very low. its
effect is shown in the few cases of ty.
phoid fever which have been reported
On the whole the health of the people
throughout the state is very good

i.st examination of applicants under the
new law was held.

DESERTED CITY.
II Is 1000 Years Old But Was Once
Inhabited.

Inhabited.
Tacoma, Wash, Oct. pa discovery
has been made in the Andes mountains,
$50 miles from Arauco, Chill, of city
deserted for 1000 years, but once in
habited, presumably by Aztecs of much
larger stature than those who lived in
Central America, according to the story
told by two men just returned from
Chill. They expect that their discovery
will add to scientific knowledge of
South American prehistoric races, and
are now hurrying east to present the
result of their researches to American
and German scientists
The discoverers of the ancient city
are Prof Emil Won Burgess of Berlin, a
famous archaeologist of Germany, and
William J. Heminway of New York
who has spent several years exploring
South American prehistoric races, and
Of five they have spent a year in South
America on a special expedition of ex-
ploratiOn. The deserted city was found
in small valley, reached only after
weeks of hardships- II was in an ex-
collent state OF preservation, the ex-
plorers finding stone houses, supposed to
have been erected twenty centuries
ago, crumbling and grown over with
MOSES and shrubs, yet standing up
right.
Ancient tools of husbandry, house
hold implements of stone and hermeti-
cally sealed graves give evidence of
high state of civilization. A large guam
tity of articles are being taken east
The city comprised 1900 souls Won
Burgess believes that either food OF
disease oxterminated the prehistoric
race, probably the latter.
