ROW OVER BATHING.
Summer Residents Near Milford Can
 not Agree on Party Lines.


 According to the New Haven Lead CT the cottagers at Walnut beacn, the popular shore resort just west or Milford, are divided in a bitter dls- pute over shorO and bathing privi- leges. It seems that this spring the cottagers living directly on the beach got together to rebuild the bulkheads which had been washed away in the heavy storms of the past winter. un- der the leadership of A. J. Ruby of Bridgeport, 1t is said. they determin- ed to fence in the whole shore front thus preventing all the other campers on Broadway and the streets north of that road from having easy access to the beach.
 The new bulkheads have been built with a broad board walk along the top, but every fifty feet or so IS a strong wire fence which cuts on com munication.
 There is just one place where the 250 cottagers who do not live on the | waters brink can get to the ocean and that is at the end of the streets where there is a place about ten feet wide. At high tide this is the limit l of sea front for them, but at low tide they can walk along then soft and muddy sand of the intertidal space | which is, of course, public land. However, the new arrangement ha' ] hurt many people, and especial! those who own several cottages. One man said the other day he had hi cottage practically rented for tht season, when his prospectice tenan' heard about the bathing privileges and called the deal off. His cottage is still standing empty.
 Other cottage owners have beer able to rent their cottages. but havi had to accept much less than the or dinary rental. The trouble has spoil ed the happiness of summer vaca tions for many.
 This resort has always attracted | many Waterbury people during tn summer and at present several resi- dents of this city are spending a va cation there.

QUEEN OBJECTS TO CORSETS. Amalia of Portugal Attributes HeI Fine Fgure to Outdoor Exercise.

Queen Amalia has the most won derful taste in dress, and Paris cos turner's are never tired of sounding her praises. At the same time her majesty believes it quite an easy matter. for a woman to have a per feet fitting gown without the aid Of corsets.
 When the Roentgen rays were dis covered she had a tight laced lady photographed in order to demonstrate scientifically to the ladies of her court the evils of the practice.
 Her majesty has very practical ideas on the advancement of her sex and considers that nursing is one of the best professions for women. She herself is famed throughout Portugal as a nurse, and is we'll known in the hospitals of Lisbon.
 Above all Queen Amalia Is never tired of preaching the value of out door and athletic exercises for wom- en. She is a magnificent swimmer, q | wonderful rider, an untiring cyclisi and a good shot. And to such pur' suits she attributes the beautiful fig ure which she possesses Bits.

and the public morals. Saloons, he
said, are at the bottom of city and
county corruption, that five-sixths of
the crimes committed are directly or
indirectly caused by strong drink,
land if this does not effect the health
and morals of the public am greatly
he concluded.
ON Personal Liberty.
The speaker commented sarcastical-
ly on the personal liberty organiza-
tons of the liquor men. Personal
liberty ends" he said, where others
rights begin and the right OF a man
to get drunk when it is going to hurt
the lives and happiness of his wife
and children should be taken away
from him the same as the right to
carry loaded weapons or to drive a
horse at breakneck speed on the
streets has been taken away for the
good of the community
He ended his speech with an appeal
TO every one to come off the fence
and to stop the passage of 100000
ever the saloon bar for the return OF
SAT 900 in the shape of license fees.
Hon. Edmond O'Connell OF Bloom
ington was the next speaker. He con.
fined his talk principally to the moral
and patriotic phases of the question
In closing he expressed wish that
if the election went against local op
ton the movement should not be for
gotten, but that an earnest effor
should be made to educate the people
t. the evil effects of the traffic sc
that prohibition could be carried to
successful issue the next time i
was placed before the public at al
election under the local option law.
Restricted Meetings.
The afternoon talks were along tn,
same lines as the evening speeches
and were listened to with great in
terest by fair sized audiences. 4
meeting for women only was address
ed by Mr.. Thrapp. Immediatel.
after, at 3:45, Mr.. O'Connell spok,
to the men. A male chorus from
Davenport gave several number
which were well received
A chorus of about $50 children san:
al the evening meeting. They carrie,
bunting which was SO arranged as t
represent a huge American flag ant
the effect was very pretty. The fes
thre was termed ''the living fla
chorus"
Stereopticon pictures on the liquo
subject were shown.

There is no such thing as a cure for dyspepsia.
We might well talk about cure for lame
ankles
Nature must do the curing. And Nature will do
It when given the chance.
Tonics and stimulants may seem to help for q
time But their effect comes only from squirting
the stomach to action. And weakness cannot be
cured with a spur.
One must relieve the stomach. Let Kodol do.
for a little time, what the stomach fails to do.
Help it as you help lame ankle Rest 1t, as
you rest other organs that need TO recuperate
And stop the Irritation of hard, undigested food.
You will be surprised to note how quickly the
stomach can regain its strength.
ALL modern treatments for indigestion aim at
this relief. But they. aim In different ways.
Some advise dieting. That brings partial relief
by emitting some elements which the stomach
can't digest
But the omitted foods are important. The body
requires many food elements When you cut some
Of them out, you are robbing some part.
How can Nature restore digestive strength II
you deprive It OF nourishment?
Another common way Is to take pepsin, or d.
gesters which depend almost solely on pepsin.
That helps little, for pepsin digests albumen
But only part of your food is albumen. Pepsin
can't digest starch; 1t can't digest fat What win
become OF them?
It is essential to have digester which COM

Session of Legislature-Sopho-
mores Entertain.

Governor John Johnson of Mime
sofa, who is conspicuously in the lime
light as a presidential possibility, will
come here on or about May l to speak
under the auspices of the Augustana

ton brought back by Professor An
drew Kempe, who has just returned
from a trip to ST. Paul, where he went
for the purpose of arranging a date
for the governors visit.
Governor Johnson was unable to
name a positive date because of the
uncertainties of a special session of
the Minnesota legislature. He assured
Professor Kempe, however, that he
would not disappoint the people OF
the tri-cities in their expectations I'M
less something altogether unforeseen
happens.
Although in great demand as a
speaker all over the country, Governor
johnson has only consented to appear
i'm three other places besides his en-
gagement here. This adds all the
more significance to his coming visit.
