Der of the House in 1904, the office
having been created by the general as
sembly of that year, Mr.. Fits is one
OF the rising lawyers of the state and
his tastes incline him to the pursuit
of his profession, but he has also a
natural aptitude for political life and
his friends expect to see him actively
engaged in the contest of 1908. 1t is
quite possible, however, that his poll
teal aspirations may take another
turn. 1t is well understood that Kit
tredse Haskins of Brattleboro is serv-
ing his last term in Congress, and 1t
Is also understood that Ilaskins' sup
port will be thrown to the Hon. Frank
Plumley In 1903, as Mr.. Plumley de-
clined to enter the race this year. Mr.,
Fits is credited with n desire to sue
coed Haskins and with a belief that
he can defeat the combination OF Has
kins and Plumlcy.

VARIETIES OF HEAVEs.
Four Distinct Sorts-Causes and symptoms
of Each-Treatment for Relief.

Properly speaking, there are three distinct dis
eases which are called heaves. The first is due
TO nerve weakness or disease Of the pneumogas-
trio nerve, which furnishes the propelling force
Of the whole pulmonary system, together with
taking part in aiding digestion. Any interior
ence with the action of this nerve causes more
or less asthma, what is called asthmaticaI
bellows heaves. A horse with naturally cramped
up lungs, from having a round barrel if allowed
constantly TO stuff on clover hay or other hay,
or If compelled to keep his stomach constantly
filled with nutritious coarse food in order to
live is liable to have asthmatic or bellows
heaves from constantly OVertaxng the nerve
spoken Of The prevention in such is TO
feed less hay and more grain to the growing
colt and also to the mature horse. Again. by
way OF relief when case occurs furnish the
food in as small bulk as possible. and at the
same time have it nutritious and easily di-
gested. This of itself is OF greater Importance
than any drug or combination Of drugs that can
be given When the indicated line of feeding
sooken OF is carried out many horse with
asthmatic heaves that is unable 10 do any work
et an will be enabled to do good work without
any medical treatment But it won't work when
the owner practises it only part of the time. In
a case like that overstuffing on pasture is quite
as bad as overstuffing on hay. Cut hay wet
with uTnewater. and all grain ground into meal
and fed with it. make the ideal feed. In very
Iad case a tablespoonful of Fowler's solution of
arsenic can well be given during the muggy
weather OF springtime or early summer. rms
class Of heaves is the class most easily relieved
Next is the bronchial heaves. accompanied by
a backing or choking cough The melting causes
