Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine Of eveo
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when 1t was simple indiges-
ton. II is scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

FLAG SWINGING.
A Description of This Picturesque
and Ancient Spot.

Flag swinging, as a national athletlc
sport, m down from the Middle
Ages and far surpasses the swinging
of flags for wigwagging, or signalling,
as practiced by armies and navies all
over the world. 1t had, as far as Is
known, it's origin in the ~neighborhood
of Krempe, Schleswig-Holstein, and 1t
still fiourishes there as a national
sport and pastime.
Since 1541, the year of it's establish
ment, it has played a prominent part
on the programme of the annual tour
naments of the different Turner so
cieties. Two championships are held,
and they are jealousy guarded, and
jealousy fought for, by the holders
and the claimants of the honor, and
the competitions take place in the
presence of the highest officials OF
Krempe, and almost it's entire popula-
ton, says the New York Herald.
Clad in the same quaint costumes
as were worn by their predecessors
800 years ago, the "~swingers' parade
the streets, followed by the athletic
societies, and greet the public by lift
ing and dropping their flags, up over
their heads and then almost trailing
them on the ground.
The swinging takes place in the
open market place opposite the Rath-
aus and consists of many curious and
complicated movements. The flags
az wound around the body and then
unwound by a single twist of the
%swinger's wrist: they are twisted
around and between the legs; under
one arm, around the body and over
the other arm; they are thrown with
enormous force high in the air, above
the houses, and then caught in one
hand. A masterpiece of the flag swing

ployes, and one derailment, killing
nine passengers.
The total number of persons killed
recorded in this bulletin is less than
in the last preceding quarter, but is
10 than in the corresponding quar-
ter of 1905. The same is true as to
the number of employees killed in coup
ling accidents. In train accidents
there is a gratifying diminution, both
in passengers and employees killed,
compared with either of the two
earlier quarters mentioned.
The bulletin completes the publica-
ton of the records of accidents for
the year ended June 80, 1906, which
show an increase of SAG in the total
number of employees killed and 1O,09S
in the number. injured, while there is
a decrease of 119 in the number of
passengers killed and an increase Of
Las in the number injured, as COM
pared with the number reported for
the year ended June 80, 1905. In
coupling accidents, which occur Who'll
ly to employees, there is an increase
of 6S in the total number killed and
of 1913 in the number injured, as com
pared with those reported during the
preceding year.
Reports received up to October %
for the year 1906, representing 213, 900
miles of track, show an increase of
1885 in the number of trainmen en-
ployed, as compared with the total
for 1905.

Railroads Eucalyptus Grove.

The Santa Fe has begun planting
trees on its land in San Diego coun-
ty, southern California. The tract is
$3.50 acres in extent, and is known as
the Rancho San Diegito. 1t is near
Del Mar. 1t will be converted into
a eucalyptus grove. About 700 acres
a year will be planted for a number
of years. The wood will be used for
ties and piles. F. P. Hosp, who has
charge of this class of work, esti-
mates that $4,000 worth of timber for
ties can be raised on one acre. The
red gum will be planted, as this, as
well as the sugar and iron bark va
rieties of eucalyptus, has been shown
by experiments in Australia to last
more than 20 years underground,
while the blue gum will not last more
than three years underground.-Rail-

HER END A MYSTERY
NO ONE KNOWS WHAT BECAME
OF OLD ENGINE.
Famous Locomotive "Orange" Is Sup
posed to Have Found Its Grave.
yard in the Old Scrap Heap
at Susquehanna.

If the scrap heap at S~usquehanna
could speak it might possibly be able
to tell what became of the old engine
Orange. No living person seems
able to do so. Ed. H. Mott, the his
torian of the Erie, tried for years to
trace her ending after the close of
a famous career, but failed. His con-
clusion was that she ultimately
reached the scrap heap in Susquehan-
ma. But of that he was not at all
certain. 1t was the best guess he
could make.
The Orange was the fourth locomo,
tive owned by the Erie, the first three
being named Eleazer Lord, Piermont
and Rockland, respectively.
The Orange had a mate in the
Ramapo, all five having been built by
William Norris of Philadelphia in
1740-41, at an approximate cost of
$4,000 each. The Orange drew the
Piedmont to Goshen, September %,
1S41, making the trip in three hours,
drawing two passenger cars (all the
Erie then owned) and two fiat cars,
Gov. Seward and the members of his
staff being passengers. Joe Megin-
ness was the engineer.
The Orange was engaged in build
ing the road at intervals all the way
from Piedmont to Dunkirk and was
used for like work, after having been
sold by the Erie, on the Attica &
Hornellsville, and the Buffalo, Brad

tances, are threads, and at the end OF
each thread there is a moose, held
open by a bead.
This wheel the girl places on her
head, while she carries a basket Of
eggs on her arm. When the music
strikes up she begins to dance and the
wheel begins to spin around. She
then takes an egg from the basket,
places it in one of the thread nooses,
and throws it from her with sufficient
force to draw the knot tight. The
spinning of the wheel, explains the
Chicago News, keeps the thread
stretched, with the egg at the end of
it.
She then takes another egg from the
basket, places it in another moose, and
repeats this until there is an egg in
every moose. Her fantastic costume,
her perfect motion, and all the eggs
swinging on the stretched threads at
once present a pretty sight indeed. 1t
requires much art to execute the
dance, for at one false step the eggs
would be dashed together, the dance
spoiled, and the dancer thereby dis
graced.
After dancing for a time with all
the eggs swinging around her head,
she takes them out of the noose one
by one, all the time keeping the wheel
balanced and in motion, and again
places them IN the basket on her arm.
When the dance is finished the
spectators are allowed to examine the
eggs to see they are real.

~rollton, N. Y. An employee who heard
she was to be seized for debt, fired
her up and ran her to Bradford, Pa,
out of the jurisdiction of New York
state officers, and left her on the
track there. The next morning she
or who took her away was never
learned, and an old employee says;
mo trace of her has ever been found,
so far as l know, and l have made
all sorts Of inquiries everywhere DUR
ing the past 40 years. 1t is supposed
that she was run back to Susquehan-
ma in the night-which would have
been an easy task in those days.
There is a theory that she was
broken up in Susquehanna, but that
was a umo that could never be YER
flied. There was no reason why she
should have been taken to Susque-
hanna and none why she should have
been broken up, except that she was
useless-worn out by hard work"
In 1852 the Orange was taken apart
and ferried piecemeal across the Gen.
esee river, put together and used to
haul iron to finish the road from
Warwick to Attica. She had previous
ly drawn the first train over the
Hornellsville & Attica railroad, Janu-
airy %, 1852, from Hornellsville to
Portage, and on August 9 of that same
year drew the first train across the
completed Portage ~bridge-then one

Don't Starve Your Bird.

It is a common mistake to think that
pets can only be taught when hun
CRY, and to commence a birds training
by depriving it of breakfast, dinner or
supper is a most unhappy beginning.
In reality, says Mary Dawson, in st.
Nicholas, the feathered folk are just
as apt and full of fun after a comforta-
BILE meal as before it, and to starve,
scold or otherwise ill-treat the little
creature will usually render it too un-
happy to learn quickly, If at all. Birds
are extremely nervous beings. They
love a low, quiet voice. and gentle
movements-love to be talked to, coax
ed and made much of. If the pet is a
new n and seems specially excitable
or timid, you will have to teach it
first of all not to fear you. Any little
games he is to- learn must be acquired
afterwards.
