ENDS INDIGESTION.

Every family here ought to
keep some Diapepsin in the house,
as any one may have an attack
of Indigestion or Stomach trouble
at any time, day or night.
This harmless preparation will
digest anything you eat and over
come a sour stomach five minutes
al rwards.
/. your meals don't tempt you,
or what little you do eat seems to
fill you, or lays like a lump of
lead in your stomach, or if you
have heartburn, that is a sign of
Indigestion.
Ask your Pharmacist for a So
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin and
take one triangule after supper
tonight. There will be no sour
risings, no belching of undigested
food mixed with acid, no stomach
gas or heartburn, fullness or
heavy feeling in the stomach,
Nausea, Debilitating Headaches,
Dizziness or Intestinal gripping.
This will all go, and, besides, there
will be no sour food left over in
the stomach to poison your breath
with nauseous odors.
Pape's Diapepsin is certain
cure for all stomach misery, be-
cause il will take hold of your
food and digest it Just the same
as if your stomach wasn't there.
Actual, prompt relief for all
your stomach misery is at your
Pharmacist, waiting for you.
These large 50-cent cases con-
tain more than sufficient to cure a
case of Dyspepsia or Indigestion.

FROM OUR EXCHANGES.
(NOrthfieId NeWsO

Although the provisions of the
parcel post bill recently introduc
ed in congress by Representative
Foster have been diligently
pointed out, still there are usual.
ly we'll informed people who seen
to misunderstood it. AS ably ed,
tied a newspaper as the Ludlow
Tribune comments unfaVorably on
the measure under an evident mis-
taken idea of the scope of the
plan.
The Tribune finds the Ludlow
merchants almost a unit on the
opinion that the passage of Fos-
ter's bill would be inimical to
! their interests in that it would
bring them into sharper COMPETE
ton with the larger concerns. The
/ fact that the larger concerns car
! ry SO much greater variety of
Warts-or at least have that
greater variety within easy reach
gives them an advantage over
the rural dealer which the parcels
post would tend to increase. A
representative OF one line of
trade holds that it would be poor
business policy for the govern
ment to go into the carrying bus
mess at a flat rate, with no re-
gard for the distance which the
pakage is carried"
The Ludlow mel chants should
understand that the bill only con-
templates carrying packages on
rural delivery routes at a low
rate of postage, from the post
office from which the routes orig
mate. AS for instance, the Lud-
low people could send packages
weighing 10 pounds or less by ru-
raj delivery mail on any route,
which starts from Ludlow at a
minimum cost. This would GER
tainly be a great accommodation
at times to both the Ludlow mer-
chants and their country patrons,
and would probably insure them
additional trade.
This is all there is to the Foster
bill; simply a great convenience
at a nominal rate for residents liv-
ing along rural delivery routes
and people living in town from
which such routes originate, Ii
the Foster measure becomes
law, it will in nowise change the
present postal system, other than
as explained above. If Rut-
land merchant or a Chicago mail
order house wished to send a
package to a person in Ludlow or
a patron living on a rural deliv-
cry route starting from Ludlow,
they would be obliged to pay the
same postage as at present with
the same limitation in weight.
The News believes in the Fos-
ter measure as one calculated to
advance the interests of the resi-
dents of the rural delivery routes
and the business men and other
people of the towns from which
such routes originate. 1t feels
certain that no community which
fully understands the scope of
this bill will be otherwise than
friendly to its passage.

TO REFoREsT MAINE.
A Man Who Plants Thousands Of
Trees Offers Prizes to Others.

A plan for the reforestaticn Of the
State of Maine has been submitted
to the governor by B. G. Jordon, Of
Alfred Mr.. Jordan offers to give
the State $1,000 on condition that
once in eighteen years five prizes
shall be awarded for the five best
lots of young forest growth.
These lots are to consist of not
less than ten acres, accurately sur
veyed and plotted, the majority Of
the trees to be not less than ten
or more than thirty feet high and not
less than ten or more than thirty
years old when the prizes are award.
cd. The varieties of trees to be
grown are specified and cover long
list from white pine to elm.
Mr.. Jordon believes that the in
centive afforded by such prizes would
do much to bring about better for
estry conditions. Maine has many
thousand acres Of waste land, now
almost worthless but naturally wei!
adapted to timber growth, and which,
according to a writer in Suburban
Life, by a small expense for care and
forest cultivation could be made
easily worth in fifty years 800 an
acre.
In this way the State instead Of
being one Of the poorest in the Union
might be made one OF the richest.
Fifty years is a large part Of one
persons life, but very small part
of the life Of State. Mr.. Jordon
himself set out from ten to fifteen
thousand trees the last summer and
states that he hopes to set out many
thousands every year as long as no
lives.

which are horrifying. Mr.. Bloss, VINO
is about 70 years old had been some
what i'll for sometime, but his con-
dition was not ~regarded as being
serious by any means, by his friends
as he was yet able to go about his
.oom. On Wednesday he arose from
his bed and soon fell quite sick anC
faint He got camphor bottle
and while in the act of returning Il
his selt before the fire he iell IL
faint, becoming unconscious, In
falling his feet went into the fir,
which was of wood in an old lin,
wood fire place.
The unfortunate man lay in thi
position for several minutes uni
he was discovered by a little
whose parent resided in the hS 4
The child gave the alarm TO ae
mother who by a desperate effor
succeeded in pulling the man iron
his perilous situation.
1t was found that hte feet of III
aged farmer had been burned to
crisp the injury extending almos
to his knees A physiciln was lur
Iiedly summoned and decided tina
the amputation of one of the mem
bers would be necessary in order /
sac his life.
The advanced age of, Mr. Bios

likely be unable to undergo such Il
operation, hence there is said to b
but the slightest hopes for his r.
