If your stomach is lacking in di.

stomach to do its work. not with
drastic drugs, but a reinforcement
of digestive agents. such as are nat.

Scientific analysis shows that d.

When your food fails to digest II
is proof positive that some of these
agents are woefully lacking in your

Getting die Facts.


Entire responsibility for the abso-
lutely correct publication Of news
items in newspaper does not rest
with the editors of the newspapers
themselves, says the Pittsburg Ga
zette-Times, which points out the
too often overlooked fact that the
people who make the news in many
instances do not realize their respon-
sibility in the matter. Says the
Gazette-Times:
The intelligent newspaper reader
nowadays clearly realizes that most
newspapers make an earnest endeav-
or to print the facts, but even the
most wideawake and conscientious
journal may be ut the mercy OF un-
scrupulous informants- 1t is sur
prising how many persons with an
AK to grind attempt to smuggle mis-
Information into print and indignant
ly disclaim the title OF deceivers when
caught at the trick. Newspapers are
constantly receiving communications
falsely colored to suit private inter
ests OF the writer's, who expressly
stipulate that their names shall not
be used. II is such. communications
which boom the wastebasket indus
try. AT the recent meeting OF the
Daughters OF the American Revolu-
tion in Washington, the president
general referred to alleged attempts
which certain members OF that aris-
tocratic order had made TO influence
editorial opinions and convey a
wrong impression OF the great news
paper reading public we cannot
get along without the newspapers, Z"
said Mrs. Mclean. When We give
correct Information, the nespapers
print 1t, and this we should always
do. But have positive information
that Daughters of the American
Revolution have tried to influence
certain newspapers and reporters to
the detriment OF this congress. a
resolution was adopted declaring Of
fetal only such reports OF the con-
vention as were approved by the
press committee.
1t is always well for organizations
which claim TO have been misrepre-
scented in the public press to ascer-
tain first whether the responsibility
does not lie with their own members.
BY entrusting to responsible official
the duty of giving out statements for
publication, much trouble may be
avoided. When newspapers spend
enormous sums annually in an en-
deavor to ascertain facts and present
them in the clearest light, they should
receive the cordial cooperation of
that portion of the public which
makes the news" Truth and ac-
curacy are the keynotes of the mod
ern successful newspaper. but. if 1t is
to print nothing but the truth, the
public must realize it's own response
blIity in the matter.

Another thing that the convention
showed very plainly to observing
ones ana that Is that Secretary OF
StRte CharIes Wesley SwIsher Is way
In the lead for the gubernatorial
nomination. and that he is practical
'lyras good as nominated now. The
delegates were about three to one

young secretary of state, and the
sentiment manifested for him was 50
great as to be easily noted. In the
contests before the state committee,
his dlegalons under FIRE, won out.
Besides that, Mr.. Swisher captured
a number of delegates already chosen
who we're unpledged. It was a good
weeks work for the SwIsher workers
and they left Parkersburg iubllant.
With the delegates he I'll get sure

settled beyond any question of a
doubt. His organization is staunch
one. His followers have imbibed
their enthusiasm from him and their
work is OF the telling kind. Every
sign points to the nomination OF fec
rotary OF State swisher. according to
the best authorities who have a close
tab on the situation.

not De given The people Of clarksburg
BY the railroad company.
The council very ienientiy gave the
company two months, In which 70
erect these gates and provide watch
men, thus relieving the company
from the hardship Of immediate ac-
ton.
1t win entail an expense on the
railroad company to erect ,and oper-
ate these gates. but that IS one of
the things any railroad company has
the right to expect when It enters
and passes through a city, and. In
the case here It has been quite for
tunate to escape this so many years.
In the wisdom OF the council the
time has arrived that for the pro
lection Of property and the safety OF
persons. when gates should be erect
ed and maintained. and there win be
sense Of relief to all, when they
materialize and the matter will soon
so adjust itself so far as the rail-
road company as not TO be regarded
an expense not warranted.

Local Good Roads.

While is is not practicable for
Clarksburg and Harrison county to
walt for the state to take action as
will aid In the making of good roads,
yet that Is no reason the city and
county itself should not proceed to
have some good road building under
Roadway this summer.
The Importance of good roads has
been we'll set out by. the Telegram,
The interests affected have been nam
d in some detail. 1t is needless to
further impress the fact that these
interest sare affected. Every one
with a grain of sense knows that.
The suggestion has been advanc-
ed that four miles OF good roads be
undertaken this year, radiating from
the city These four miles are to be
Of the four leading highways COM
ing into the city.
Such proposition will likely be laid
before the county court at Its June
term, by Arms and others interested
most directly, such action should be
concerted, and this may necessitate
mass meetings of the people to bring
such action about.
These mass meetings cannot be
called too soon. All interested
should work this up at once, hold a
general meeting at an early date, APP
point committees, have more meet
ings and take the county court by
storm.

Railroad Gates.

There can no longer be any doubt
that the action of the city council in
requiring the railroad company to
maintain gates at certain crossings
is proper and wise.
Such is done in other cities, where
the crossings are not used any more
than they are here. There is, there

THE BAND CONCERT

The Metropolitan Band under the
leadership of Mr.. Albert Gerig gave
another of their delightful concerts
last night that drew hundreds of peo-
pie to the courthouse square and the
nearby vicinity, anon gthem a num-
beI of strangers within our gates who
remarked on the proficiency of the
band and their playing music that
Nould do credit to any professional
band. One Of the pleasant sights of
the evening was to see so many child
rem present who seemed to greatly en-
JOY the music. Now in thinking over
the desirability Of the band to our
town, to how many Of us does it &C.
cur that it takes time and money to
secure these greatly relished treats
That being the case should there not
be some systematic effort made to Sc
cure a certain sum each week by sub
scription to keep the boys in music,
uniforms and pay hall rent? Who will
see to this important work?

the bushes a short distance from the
station and took leisurely leaps ahead

turned on it jumped off the track.
When the train came to a halt dogs
and gun were secured and then the
fun began A load of shot and the
yelps of the dogs put the catamount
leans twenty feet at a clip and out of
sight into the woods. Mr.. Boring said
that catamount was ten feet long.

school exhibits this morning the essays
prepared by the pupils of Miss Pas

is a volume of each, both in drawings
and detailed histories of both, as to
habits and animal characteristics.

teacher for her kindly suggestions,
nor the pupils for the painstaking
work they devoted to their interesting

these subjects instill into the minds of
the pupils a gentleness and kindness

Wiley's Poison Squad End Their Test

thought by scientific men to be objec- tionable because containing caffeine or other injurious substances, there is a wide field for the students to expert ment.
 One of the most interesting possi- bilities is the determination of wheth- CT or not feungreek, the famous old world herb remedy, which is part of most medicines advertised to increase flesh, is really what it is said to be, and will accomplish the purposes for which it is advertised. A class in feungreek is said to be one of the pos abilities of the early future.
 Condition foods for animals also offer field of endeavor that Dr.. Wiley may yet explore to determine if the claims made for the various brands of food are really true.
 The experiments conducted by Dr. Wiley are the first large experiments of the sort conducted in the scien- tific world. The classes, which were started in the fall of 1902, have all ready gone through a variety of ex- periments. Borax and boric acid were the first to receive attention, eulphuric acid, benzote, formaldehyde and cop per salts have also been fully tested as to their effects on the human sys- tenn when taken with food

HORTICULTURAL EXPERIMENT.
Hotbed Successfully Warmed by Elec-
 tricaI Heater.

The accompanying illustrations show
 the details of construction of an cleo trical heater and the use of the same in a hotbed heated by electricity. The
 experiments were undertaken at Fur
 bine, Ontario, by G. Hartman, the
 plants being started in the hotbed early in the spring, heated electrically though the plants were not brought to maturity in the hotbed but planted in the open ground when danger of frost had passed.
 The electric heater, explains Popu
 lar Mechanics, was placed under a frame six feet wide and four feet long the floor above the heater being GOV. cred with bed of earth five inches deep and the whole frame covered with glass. Iron wire was used for the heater wound in coils about two inches in diameter, the total of about 260 feet of No. 12 wire being employed
 An ordinary 110-volt current was uti
 lized, the electric heat being sufficient to keep the earth warm even in the coldest weather. The coils were

tained by connection with an 7l%ctrfc light fixture. In carpet sw seping a rapidly revolving brush loosens the dirt and dust, which is then drawn into the cleaner by a revolving double fan and dropped into separator. Matches, paper and heavier fragments fall into a separate drawer.
 For other household cleaning special attachments are provided, fitted to flexible tubes One of these is used for cleaning cushions, mattresses, and upholstery in general. This may be done either by suction or by forcing air through the material to be cleaned; !; il practice the dust is usually first drawn into the machine, and current of clear air afterward driven through the cleaned object. A second attach ment is adapted for cleaning corners, crevices and other awkward places, while a third is used for cleaning walls, curtains, mouldings and similar surfaces.
 The work of the cleaner is very thorough, the suction of the air tend- ing to reach the under-surface dust, which is often passed over by me- chanical brush sweepers and similar appliances.

Walking day and night, without a single stop, a dummy soldier is mak- ing 100000 steps every "A hours in an endurance test to determine the life of several new cartridge belts which are under consideration by the board of ordnance and fertilization of the army. The dummy's tour of duty is at the Rock Island Qll) arsenal The dummy is the size of an average sol dier. By a special mechanical appa- ratus it is made to walk, with the guidance of wire cable, as though on sentinel duty, in circle in one end of hail. The mechanism is such as to give the dummy the same motion as would be experienced by the average soldier in walking. About the waist of the figure are strapped the various belts, one at time, which are being tested Each is filled with the regula- tion number of rounds of service cart ridges, the principal test being made with the sharp-nose bullets, to deter. mine how long it will take for these to wear through the pockets of the belts.
