MANSFIELD.

At the town meeting on Saturday,
Assistant Engineer Harte of the Com
necticut Company submitted plans to
the proposed lay out of the Whitman
South Coventry trolley extension.
The plans were thoroughly gone over
aud the meeting practically voted to
adopt them. There were two points,
however, brought up regarding the
proposed route that will be taken up
at later meeting, probably to be held
with the company in New Haven.
These conoern the crossing of the
highway twice on the grade near the
Central Vermont railroad tracks and
changing the highway near the pond
at Perkins corners. The townsmen
object to the trolley line crossing
twice on a a single grade and it is ex-
pected that this matter will be salts
factorily adjusted so that the trolley
will approach the grade. on the west
side and not cross the highway: at all
Concerning crossing the tracks of the
railroad the company plans to "take
over" the present highway with the
line by building a larger and more
substantial bridge. The plans called
for changing the highway at the
bridge at Perkins corners to the east,
But as there is dam near the road at
this point the townsmen objected to
the change, but it is believed that
this can be adjusted in satisfactory
manner. as there is room enough on
the west of the bridge. The new
line will be about seven miles long
and will end at Lake .Wangumbaug.
For the purpose of taking action on
the company's plans for laying tracks
and setting poles in Coventry, the
selectmen of that town have called a
special town meeting for Saturday
afternoon. at 2 O'Clock, to be held in
A. o. U. W. hall at South Coventry. :.

Although the use of the expression

have dated from the time of Noah,
when the bird was first looked upon
as unclean and not fit to serve as food
for man, it seems to have arisen from
the old tale of the officer and the pri-

A soldier, having shot a tame crow

How Animais and Vegetation Fight
e Anainst Extinction.

e Against Extinction.
Almost all life on the desert goes
armed. In the vegetation world of the
desert the cactus comes first with its
numberless species. They are all arm
ed with long or short, tough spines that
can penetrate the thickest boot. The
solitary and often grotesque Joshua or
Yucca, the mesquite, the cats claw and
numberless shrubs whose names have
not been written, all are armed in one
way or another. Some exude poison
Gus sap, others nauseating odors. The
sagebrush is about the only one that
does not seem to have any protection.
In the animal kingdom most are
either armed with sharp teeth, spines,
odors or poison to serve to keep their
enemies at a distance, while the others
depend upon their heetness or artful
F'skulking and hiding. ''- : = I.
The spines and repulsive ella mon
ster, the horned toad. the sidewinder,
with his two horns and deadly fangs,
and its cousin, the desert. rattlesnake;
the tarantula, scorpion and desert bee,
each of whose sting is exceedingly
painful and sometimes fatal. are
among the deserts denizens. Then
there are many varieties of lizards
large and small and OF many colors
which protect themselves by their speed
alone. The prowling coyote, bohcat.
mountain lion, jack rabbit cottontail.
mountain sheep. hex. antelope and an
occasional deer nref thhrp
Among the smaller animals are the
gopher, kangaroo rat trade rat, hydro
phobia skunk, ground squirrel and in
Vulnerable mice. But the traveller sell
dom sees any of these. The prospector,
however, soon becomes acquainted
with them The first or, at the latest,
second night of his stay in any one
camp he will be visited by trade rat
which will carry away all that portion
Of his outfit that Is not too heavy for
his ratship to handle and religiously
leave some stick or stone in it's place.
A hydrophoba skunk will be apt to
call and lunch from any bacon rinds
that may be lying about, not disdain-
ing a nip at Mr.. Prospector's nose II
the opportunity offers. 1t is said and
firmly believed by the sons of the des-
ert that the bite of this little skunk
produces hydrophobla. The ella mon
ster is seldom seen, and the writer
after having spent nearly year on
the borders of Death valley has yet
to see one at large. Rattlesnakes are
also scarce except In some favorable
locality. ."-
All life on the desert lives by its pow
err to resist thirst All desert plants
are so constructed that they are able
to conserve and store up moisture
against the time of drought. This ne
cessity has wrought peculiar forms Of
both animals and plants, and in time
it also leaves its indelible mark upon
men who dwell amid its wastes. The
leaves of all desert trees are small and
thick, SO that they expose as little sur
face as possible for evaporation in the
dry air. The great and ever present
evidence of the struggle for water Is
noticeable everywhere where men
come together on the desert. In this
struggle all who come to the desert
must engage instantly. Every wagon
must have it's water barrels. every
burro his water bags, each man his
canteen.-Los Angeles Times.

That Is What Makes Indigestion, Dys-
pepsia, Sour Taste, Foul Breath
And Cafarrh

The stomach is good strong vital
organ, which is constantly protecting
and feeding every other organ of the
body.
1t is the most abused. neglected and
scorned member of man also. Most men
abuse their stomach with under-cook-
ed food, high living. alcohol, tobacco,
pastries and scores of other unhealthy
practices.
WbAn the stomach at last sickens of
all this abuse and cannot do its full
duty. most men are not warned but
keep up their assaults on the stomach
until at last it rebels and begins to
strike back and cry for help. Man by
his own abuse has taken away from
the stomach the tools to work with
These tools are the gastric Juices
which go to make up the digestive
agents. From I to 35 lbs. of gastric
juice are turned into the stomach ev-
cry day.
: When poor. poisonous food consumes
this Juice. dilutes it, robs it of it's
strength and throws it, ~fermented
mass from the system. of course there
is just that much of the gastric fluid
which cannot be readily supplied by the
blood.
When food comes into a stomach fill
ed with depleted fluids lacking of pow
er to do their part. the good strong
stomach is using poor tools and of
course, cannot succeed in It's work
A condition which often prevails is
that which takes place when the gas
trio Juice contains too much alkaH. If
the Juice We're wholly alkaline 1t would
not only devour and digest the fluid
but would eat and digest the stom-
ach itself Such gastric fluid does the
digestion no good and attacks the
walls of the stomach making them
raw and sore and setting up infan-
nation and irritation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
strengthen a stomach filed with poor
gastric juice. They will remove any
abnormal alkaline condition, alIay irri-
tation, sweeten the breath, remove ca
tarrhal conditions and digest food no
matter how the stomach has acted be-
fore.
These little tablets contain an in
gredient, one grain of which will di-
gest perfectly 5000 grains of food They
will digest an entire meal placed in a
jar without the aid of any other force
except themselves. They have demon
strated this time after time
