How to Avoid Germ Diseases.
Strengthen the Stomach and Digestion
and Won Will Keen Well.

When there is an epidemic of germ
disease, and most diseases are caused BY
germs, 1t is the person with weak stom.
ach who succumbs first.
If you suffer with pains or distress after
eating, headache, belching of gases, sour
food, bad taste in the mouth, dizziness
pains in the heart, specks before the eyes,
and general feeling of dependency and
weakness. you should get well at once by
strengthening the stomach with Mi-o.na.
Just one small tablet out of a fifty cent
box before eating, and your digestive
system will become so strong that you
will be the embodiment of good health
and spirits, and need fear no germ
diseases.
Ask W. B. Eastman to show you the
guarantee under which he sells Mi-o.na;
t costs nothing unless it cures.

Vermont Experiment Station Tells
How to XIII "PaInt.Brush"

The Experiment Station at Burling-
ton, which is supported by the State for
the special benefit of the farmers Of
Vermont, has made careful study of
the best methods Of destroying paint
brush" and gives the results Of its in
yestigation in the following language:
1.-THE orange hawkweed C'paint-
brush') is, however, remarkably Sensi-
tive to salt, being quickly killed by ap-
plications which do not injuriously af-
feet most other plants. Dry Salt was
thrown broadcast upon adjoining plots
at the rates respectively Of 1000, 1000,
5000, 1000 and 5000 pounds per acre.
The heaviest application entirely de-
stroyed the hawkweed and the grass
also. All of the lighter applications
proved ultimately beneficial to the grass
and, in varying degree, destructive to
the weed, Most of the weed was killed
by the 3O00-pound applicati ton and every
plant Of it was killed by the applica-
ton of 5000 pounds to the acre. The
cheapest Salt obtainable Is recon-
mended for use, as in our experiments
this has proved about as effective as
the purer table salt. Ex-Governor G.
S. Page of Hyde Park, VT, sells a
refuse Salt from his hide warehouses
at from So to 81 per ton. This is less
pleasant to handle, but contains some
refuse matter which adds slightly to its
fertilizing value"
Mr.. Page is selling his this years
product for $3.50 per ton, f. o. b. cars
at Hyde Park, and will be pleased to
correspond with any farmers who are
troubled with "paint-brush."

lSOLIDATED DID WELL
Reported to Have Closed Fiscal Year
 $l,40O,000 Ahead.

The directors of the New York, New Haven Hartford Railroad company wound up Saturday afternoon a trip over the system, during which they held the July meeting on the special train. President Cassatt of the Penn sylvania road was one of the directors present. One of the matters up for discussion was the report for the last quarter and for the year, and it is re- ported in New Haven that the yearly report will show gain of S1.4O0OOO. This is ascribed to the large tonnage and passenger movement over the con- panys lines and also to the reduction of the number of penalty cars on the road. now cut to about 1S,OOO.
 One of the reasons for the holding of the July meeting in the eastern dis trict was to acquaint the directors of the road with some of the merits ce the Old Colony. To this end the party were taken as far east as Nantasket Beach.
 President Mellen did not return to New Haven with the party, going from Springfield to his summer home 1R Stockbridge. ---a ,44,---
 The outlook for the system for the future was considered very favorable. No change was made in the executive staff of officials.

A SWELTERINC DAY.
Pepole Seeking Cool Spots and Trolley
 Rides Tester day,

The need of a few more breathing spots in Waterbury was very evident yesterday when men, women and children got out of their homes and took to the woods and every place where they could catch a breath of air and also keep clear of the scorch- ing sun. The thermometers and the people don't agree regarding the weather conditions yesterday, the for mer claiming that the mercury did not get beyond ninety, and the latter talk ing the ground that it travelled at least twenty degrees farther than that point. But it was warm day any way, and if Waterbury had a dozen parks near the thickly settled sections yesterday they would have been we'll patronized. Hamilton park is all right, but one would suffer almost as much getting there and back yester- day as he would by staying at home and getting roasted. It is a pity that Union square park is not made to serve some better purpose during the sum- mer months. It is convenient to large numbers of people and hundreds would find it delightful retreat if it were only fixed up so that they could find seats there The reason why it is not used for this purpose is because the seats that were there were tossed about and broken, and the antics of those who used them became such a public nuisance that decent people became mighty glad to see them re- moved. That was due to lack of police protection. A number of per manent seats out there now would be a great public benefit and there is enough police in the neighborhood to see that nobody abused them. It costs something to maintain that park and the people should get some return for the outlay. The only objection to the management of the park in the center is that the number of seats available is not sufficient to accommodate all who want to spend a half hour be- heath the shade of the umbrageous elms. There should be a wide walk running in the center of the green sward from the band stand to the soldiers monument, which would make room for fifty or seventy-fve IilOIc SedlS where WOn6n could SlC down and look at the little ones kick at stray sunbeams and amuse them selves playing hide and seek about the trees. In the opinion of some the green is too sacred for youthful pranks, but this idea is dying out and in time there will be more seats there and more women and children, and anybody who thinks the park could be put to better purposes must have a strange conception of what park is for anyway. Waterbury is getting to be big place and as it grows the de- mand for suitable places of recreation in the fine weather will continue and unless provision is made in advance to meet these conditions it will be quite a problem within the next few years The young fellows and the young girls will take care of them selves The well-to-do folks won't care because they will be at the shore or in the mountains. What about the woman and children who never can afford an extended vacation and to whom the trip to Hamilton park would be serious inconvenience, to say nothing about the expense?
