Acoor7ing to the description of the Improvements being made on the Prin' a Sess May, received by E. B, Dunn, agent oi the Canadian Pacific Steam ship Company, when she appears in this port about May l, she will be prsc tically a new vessel and will hardly be ,oguized by those familiar with her.

 many respects the interior of the

 up. She will have double the
 ager accommodation she had be- there being -S stateroomS, where ssrly she had only 4l.
 Sere are ou the upper deck 8 state ens, all Of which open on the prone S sde walk There IS also sn o6serVs- iou-roon forward oO this deck, after ths p an Of the one on the Princess Vic tOria From the oSserystiOn-room stair runs down to the main deck. At the afterpart of the ship on the upper deck is a smoking room. which is also oo the same plan ss that On the Prin- cess Victoria. About smidships wide Epaee has been left for promenade pur poses, where one can go from one side Of the ship to the other without walk fl = the entire length Of ths vessel. N On ta, aiterpart of the upper deck is small saloon snd social hall, as for nerly.
 On the main deck great changes have been wrought. From the smok- ing-roou. running aft, the whole iute- rior of the ship IS one large social hall, the rooms ou either side opening into it, On this deck there are 43 first class stat rooms, all large and:comiort- able, with double lower and single up- per berths. There are also two bath rooms and several toilet rooms. The stagerOoms open into the large social hall.
 The dining sa'oOn has been moved from amidshius to the afJerparr ot the ship on the main decs and will be one. ol the features Of the boat. One great advantage the Princess May will have over her previous arrangement will be that a passenger can get to and from any part Of Ihe vessel without going outside ou deck.

Free Rural Delivery.

In replying to numerous inquiries
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Degrew has indicated the purposes OF the
department in connection with an in
spection of rural free delivery routes
which is in progress with view to dis
continuing or reducing the service OF
such of them as show little patronage.
In answering the inquiries Mr.. Degrew
has replied substantially as follows:
"The inspection of the service which
has been instituted is with view to as
certaining the cause for any adverse con-
ditions which may exist, and the posi-
bility of removing such conditions. In
discovering that there is lack of pat
ronage on q given route, consideration
is given first to tho possibility of increas-
ing the interest in the service on the
route; second, to the possibility of rear
ranging the route so as to increase the
patronage; third, to the possibility OF
establishing every other day service in
lieu of daily service; and last, to its dis
continuance where the conditions are
such that the expenditure involved In
the operation of the route Is unwarrant-
ed.
"Wbile no fixed rule as to the amount
of mail which should be handled on
rural route has been decided, still tho
department feels that the average rural
route should handle 5000 pieces of mali
per month, with possible minimum OF
1000, but the question Of tho discon-
tinuance OF the service on the routes
must in all cases depend upon the condi-
tious as they may exist on such routes,
and the expenditure involved in operat-
ing the service on a given route might
not be deemed warranted, even though
the minimum of 1000 pieces of mail per
month were handled, where 1t was found
that a considerable number of the posi-.
BILE patrons were not availing themselves
of the benefits of the service"

Ulcer OF The
Stomach

INsIDIOUs NATURE OF THE DISEASE
HOW TO RECOGNIZE AND CURE IT.
Ulcer of the stomach may exist for
years without very marked symptoms,
excepting those caused by indigestion.
It is due to an inflammation which
affects the membrane of the stomach so
that it is eaten away by the gastric
juices.
In good health, the stomach resists the
action of the gastric juices, but when
weakened, the membrane Is badly nour-
ished and the digestive fluids act upon 1t
as we'll Is upon the food, keeping
up until perforation of the stomach
occurs. In advanced cases of ulcer OF
the stomach there is much discomfort
after eating. with constant gnawine
sensation between meals, pain from the
pit of the stomach back to the shoulder
blade.
At the first symptoms OF indigestion,
treatment should at once be started with
Mi.o-na. This is scientific remedy
adapted specifically to one purpose, the
cure of stomach troubles. It Is 80 uni
formly successful that F. A. Shurtleff &
Co. give signed guarantee with every
30 cent box that the money will be re-
funded II it does not cure.
Mi-o-na is not patent or secret rem
edy, but is a combination Of the purest
and most reliable of remedies for
strengthening the digestive organs and
building up the whole system. Use 1t
for few days and there Is no reason
why you should not be able to eat any
food you like at any time without fear
of distress.

Arrested for Larceny Of Money.
TRAP WAS SET AND THE GAME WAS
CAUGHT BY IT.

II was a somewhat startling piece of
news which came to the ears of the
people here Tuesday noon that Frank E.
Pottle of Norway Lake had been arrest
ed charged with larceny Of money from
the safe of N. Dayton Bolster Il Co.
Mr.. Pottle is q man of middle age and
good appearance, with wife and three
children, and a formerly unblemished
reputation. He and his family were for
a while some years ago residents OF this
village. Recently he has been employed
soliciting life insurance, and has spent
considerable time in this village, fire.
auently stopping at the Andrews House
for dinner, and sitting about certain
stores and other places OF business here
a good deal.
The arrest was the outcome OF some
detective work. For some weeks money
has occasionally disappeared from
pocketbook in the safe, in the office OF
the Bolster store, and methodical plan
to discover where it was going had been
in operation for some time. Jailer
Farrar was called to assist in the invest
ipation. Tuesday afternoon about l
O'clock, when w. l.. Libby was the only
clerk on duty in the store, Mr.. Fsrrar
was stationed where he could see the in
terror of the officU without his presence
being known. While Mr.. Libby was
temporarily out of the main room OF the
store, Mr.. Farrar saw Mr.. POttle 60 to
the safe, and take out something and put
it in his pocket.
Mr.. Farrar Immediately left his place
of concealmeut, and getting into the
store by the front door, informed MIR.
Libby by a prearranged signal that he
had made discovery. Mr.. Libby made
an GRAND to the safe, and taking out the
pocketbook, the contents OF which he
knew exactly, he found that there was
one five dollar bill missing. Mr.. Boil
ster was quietly summoned to the store,
and Mr.. Puttle was called into the office,
where, on being confronted with the
situation, he produced from his pocket
the missing five dollar bill.
In the Norway Municipal Court Pot
tie was arraigned charged with the
larceny of the five dollars, also with the
larceny Of twenty three dollars from the
same safe on the 9th Of December. BE
pleaded guilty on both complaints. Or
the first he was sentenced to a fne o.
S25 and costs, amounting to $54.45, and
on the second q sentence Of sixty days II
| jail was imposed, to be suspended during
good behavior.
