The bill introduced 10y Hon. NJ.
{. Mechem, councilman from this
district, to establish aud maintain
farmers Institutes and co-opera.
tive experiment stations in New
Mexico, is a commendable one,
and should receive the early atten-
ton Of the territorial assembly.
1t may be tina, the farmers have
not manifested sufficient interest
TO convince the territorial soIons
that such an &C, is necessary, but
it certainly would result in great
good 10 the farmer who is Just be.
ginning in this country. The
News has before suggested tina, il
would be a good idea Tor those
who are interested TO petition the
Legislature to pass the bill.

One of the local banks is 81 better
off than it can account for, with
hardly chance of ascertaining where
the money came from, and at present
it is thought that about the only way
to dispose of the little parcel of cash is
to charge it up in the profit and loss
account. Where the money came from
the bank officials have not the slightest
idea, and the only clue that they have
to work upon is the postmark upon the
envelope which held the cash and the
note which accompanied it, as the lat
ter bore no signature. 1t may be that
the return of the money, judging from
the tone of the note, the text of which
S as follows. was due to little twinge
of conscience, but be that as it may,
the lines tell of the ultimate triumph
of honesty: Some time ago the CASH
Ter of the bank overpaid a friend of
mine IS. though it was his mistake,
not my friends, and upheld him in
keeping it, but the Lord has taught me
it was not my friends, so 1 return it
with interest because I feel 1 was in
the wrong, too" AS the interest
amounted to 81 it will be seen that
some little time elapsed before the one
who sent in the money was brought to
see the light.

Diapepsin Makes Them
Feel Fine Again.
Relief in Five Minutes for
Journal Readers. |
Heartburn, Gas, Indigestion and
Other Stomach Misery Goes.

The question as to how long you are
going to continue a sufferer from In
digestion, Dyspepsia or out-of-order
stomach is merely a matter of how
soon you begin taking some Diapep-
Sin.
If your Stomach is lacking in d.
gestive power, why not help the stom-
ach to do it's work, not with drastic
drugs. but a reinforcement of diges-
tive agents, such as are naturally at
work in the stomach.
People with weak Stomachs should
take little Diapepsin occasionally,
and there will be no more indigestion,
no feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach, no heartburn, Sour risings.
Gas on Stomach or Belching of undi-
gested food, Headaches. Dizziness or
Sick Stomach, and besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseOus Odors. All these
symptoms resulting from sour, out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved five minutes after
taking a little Diapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get So
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin now
and you will always go to the table
with hearty appetite, and what you
eat will taste good, because your stom-
ach and intestines will be clean and
fresh, and you will know there are not
going to be any more bad nights and
miserable days for you. They fresh
en- you and make you feel like life is
worth living.

There has been q mistaken idea for
years that frequent washing is bad
for the hair. The result is that nearly
everybody has more or less hair trou-

druff, and hundreds Of others have
hair that Is too oily, or too dry or
hair that is faded and lifeless. The
result Of all these troubles Is falling
hair, and after that comes baldness.
There are hundreds of humbugs sold
under various names that are said to
make beautiful hair, and that are
said to cure dandruff, but they are

Rescript in The Harold
Martin Case.
Action Brought by the Ad-
ministratrix Fails. Il, II :.
Held That Right Of Action Vested
Solely in Widow.

A rescript was handed down Tues
day by the law court ordering non-
suit in the case of Flora E. Ham,
mond, admrx., Va. Lewiston, Augusta
& Waterville Street Railway. This re-
script is of unusual interest in this
county as it disposes finally Of the
action brought by the Administrative
of the estate of the late Harold E.
Martin Of Winthrop, who was killed by
car OF the defendant corporation at
Dudley's Crossing, Winthrop, Oct. Is,
1903.
The suit was brought by the admin
istratrix for the benefit Of herself as
Martins sole heir at law at the date
of the writ. The case went from the
supreme court to the law court on re-
port and the rescript, which is drawn
by Associate Justice Leslie c. Cornish
of Augusta holds that the right of ac-
ton in the case vested solely, for the
benefit of the widow upon the death
of her husband and was not transfer
red to any other beneficiary either by
her death or by her failure to bring
suit. The rescript is as follows:

This is an action brought under r.
s. Oh. SO, Sections 9 and 10, by the
administrators of the estate of Har-
old E. Martin for the benefit of her
self as his sole heir at law at the date
of the writ. PLAINTIFFS intestate was
instantaneously killed by being struck
Nv car of the defendant at the date
alleged in the declaration. He left a
widow but no children. Subsequently
the widow died, no administration then
having been taken out upon her hus-
bands estate and no suit having been
brought for her benefit. After the
death of the widow, the plaintiff, the
sister of said Martin and his sole heir
at law, was appointed administrative
of his estate and began this action
The case comes to the law court on
report and the single question pre-
sented is whe Their on the foregoing
facts. this action, If maintainable on
the merits, can be maintained for the
benefit of the plaintiff as such sole
heir.
