TOWN AND VICINITY.


The new puSt-ot1icr, Cumbrrland'S :
latest imported institution for the town
to be proud of, has IA revolving door,
which gives occasion to the Queen City
COM ter to tender some advice:
In going in or out of the city poSt-otiicc
always push to the right and don 90 two
IN the same booth; after you once get in
there Is hardly room for two.
The watchman has had some trouble with
smart young men getting gay as they push
in and out.
Some of them will have to pay fines to
teach them how to act in public office.
Up here there are two reasons why the
post office should remain closed cspcc-
tally during the winter
|, 1t is cold when the door opens so
often, and
,, The police force doesn't think it
any part of Its duty to be where pushing
and scrouging are likely to occur. cS-
pecially ON Sunday, when pushing and
scrouging are so much the more ''out of
order
One of the postmaster's arguments
against all-day open ON Sunday is
liability To robbery of the office when he
and employees are out
He would hoa bold burglar who would
attempt Il feat like that in place So
public
But what Il magnificent chance for the
police to catch him and add a laurel to Il
brow which goes year after year laurel
less!
There are times, frequent times, when
1t would be distinct popular pleasure
to have policeman come III, catch and
yank out lot of tus>cling boys.
But the FroStburg maxim, ''lct the
boys have their fun, goes, while older
folks must suffer and be strong" as
possible under the circumstances.

Taking Desperate CHARGES

1t is true that many contract
colds and recoverlIfrom them
without taking any precaution
Or treatment, and a knowledge
If this fact leads others to take
their chances insteadsof giving
their colds the needed atten-
ton. 1t should be borne in
mind that every cold weakens
the lungs, lowers the vitality,
makes the system less able to
withstand each succeeding cold
and paves the way for more
serious diseases. Can you
afford to take such desperate
chances when Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, famous for it's
cures of colds, can be had for a
trife? For sale by Elliott &

A Birthday Surprise

Wednesday evening, April S,
about 35 young friends of Earl
Campbell, who lives a mile east
of Loveland, dropped in on him
to spend the evening. 1t was
a great surprise to Earl, but he
soon braced up and mace all
feel at home. His friends told
him they had come to let him
know he had passed the 10th
mile post. 1t is nonsense to
say they did not have a good
tt ne. The young friends gave
him many nice presents. At
IL o'clock all were invited into
the dining room, where they
found a splendid supper, to
which they did full justice.
Mr.. Campbell and lis young
frien Is will long remember
Wednesday night. In the wee
hours of the morning al de-
p .rted for their homes, hoping
D ri would live to see many
more birthdays.

An II He,ne.

One is generally expecting
something novel at Mrs. Pratt's
entertainments and her AT
Homo yesterday fully came ny
TO their expectations. About
forty-one ladies' enjoyed the
hospitality of the hostess. As
the guests arrived at the Pratt
home, they. were admitted and
conducted to the dressing room
by Miss Hazel Shackleford and
Miss Louise Carlisle. The
rooms were decorated i'm carna-
lions and tulips, presenting a
very spring-like appearance.
When the usual time allotted
to visiting and chatting had
been allowed, the hostess passed
blank cards and three articles
wrapped in tissue paper tc
each guest with the statement
chat the three articles were to
be pasted on the card in some
way to form a beautiful per
sonage like a man or woman.
Such monstrosities as were
made by some of the ladies
never were heard of Iefor, in
this country. This certainly
created some real lively amuse.
ment. After the excitement
had subdued, cards were passed
with pencils attached, with the
admonition that the ladies write
correctly three verses of the
song America" Thirty min
utes was allowed for this and
a. the end of that time no one
had all three verses correctly,
b 1T Mrs. Edgecomb wrote the
most verses correctly and she
received a handsome Easter
lily as a reward. This was
followed by a delicious three
course supper. The hostess
was assisted by Misses Maude
md Nell Mac Allister, Miss
Edna Coulthard and Miss Pratt.
Each lady was presented with
a beautiful tulip as a souvenir.
At late hour the ladies left
for their homes, after declar-
ing Mrs. Pratt a charming
hostess.

While Col. Orr was driving

diversion Of the evening. A
most ENJOYABLE time was had.
At midnight the hostess assist
ed by the host served a very
fine two course supper. These
meetings have been very en-
joyable all winter and no doubt
the members regret to see the
season close. The guests OF
honor last evening were DR..

the ROOT OF the MA | TER
He Cured. Himself Of Serious Stomach;
Troubles by Getting Down to
First PRINCIPLES.

A man of large affairs in one Of our
prominent eastern cities by too close
attention to business, too little exercise
and too many club dinners, finally began
to pay natures tax, levied in the form
OF chronic stomach trouble; the failure
Gus irritability making it impossible
to apply himself to his daily business
and finally deranging the kidneys and
heart.
In his own words he says: III con-
suited one physician after another and
each one seemed to understand my
case, but all the same they each failed
to bring about the return of my former
digestion, appetite and vigor. For two
years went from pillar to post, from
one sanitarium to another. l gave up,
smoking, I quit coffee and even re-
nounced my daily glass or two of beer,
without any marked improvement. 80
ID. "Friends had often advised me to try
g well-known proprietary medicine,
often perused the newspaper ADVERTISE,
ments of the remedy but never took
any stock in advertised medicines nor
could believe ffty-cent patent medi-
cine would touch my case. =
ITO make long story short, finally
bought couple of packages at the
nearest drug store and took two or three,
a tablet between meals, when felt any
feeling OF nausea or discomfort.
q was surprised at the end Of the
first week to note marked improve

pepsia.
to the proprietors of the remedy ask
ing for information as to what the
tablets contained and they replied that
the principal ingredients were aseptic
and other natural digestives, which d.
gest food regardless Of the condition
Of the stomach.'
The root of the matter is this, the
digestive elements contained in Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food,
give the overworked stomach a chance
to recuperate and the nerves and whole
system to receive the nourishment which
can only come from food. Stimulants
and nerve tonics never give real
strength, they give fictitious strength,
invariably followed by reaction. Every
drop of blood, every nerve and tissue is
manufactured from our daily food, and
if you can insure its prompt action and
com lete digestion by the regular use
of so good and wholesome remedy as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, you will
have no need of nerve TONES and sani-
tariums.

have been in the market only a few
years, probably every druggist in the

, Fast Time on the 3. & o.

B: N: Austin, general passenger agent
of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad sends
out the information to the headquarters
here that the Taft special made the run
from Chicago to Washington in the re-
markable time Of sixteen hours and
thirty-fve minutes. The train left
South Chicago at 10 pm. and arrived in
Washington 2:35 central time the next
afternoon, making the 800 miles in 995
minutes, The train was Of the same
size as the fastest train between Chica-
90 and New York, which makes the 912
miles in 1850 minutes: On the Chicago
more & Ohio clip OF: eighty two miles
per hour was struck and maintained for
several hours. Mr.. Austin has for two
years entertained the idea Of an l8-hour
train between Chicago and Washington,
and this run proves that the new Balti-
more & Ohio would have no trouble
whatever in making such fast .sched-
ule. Secretary Taft was very much
pleased with the fast run as it enabled
him to take his evening meal in Chica-
90, have a rest in Washington, and take
his next evening meal with the presi-
