New York, Sept. 3.-William r.

.dence Party's county committee here

Origin of Appendicitis

Appendicitis is caused in most cases
by indigestion. The undigested food
irritates the intestines. The appendix
becomes inflamed which soon be-
comes chronic. Finally suppuration
sets in, a pus cavity is formed and an
acute attack of appendicitis results.
To prevent attacks of this fatal di-
sease cure your indigestion with Ry-
dales Stomach Tablets. They will
make the whole alimentary canal
healthy from the stomach to the low
er bowles. No danger of attacks of
appendicitis if the intestines are nor
NAL and healthy Rydale's Stomach
Tablets will keep them so. Shurtleff

Keeping Good Roads Good.

Every good road built creates a de
mand for another, and there seems no
prospect that the building of good
roads will speedily come to an end.
But farsighted men advise the public
that the building of good roads is not
the whole of having good roads. Good
roads, like good machines, need atten.
ton. Neglect often impairs them more
seriously than it doestpoor roads. At
least the result of neglect Ia the more
noticeable. Nothing much is expected
Of a poor road. But a once good road
which has become bad in spots is q
disappointment.
Wherever the good roads movement
takes root money for new construction
will be raised somehow. But it is well
for the public looking for benefit to
realize that the maintenance Of good
roads is the hardest end Il the prob
lem. Enthusiasm works up the first
appropriation, but preserving and
mendpg are dull and apparently
thankless jobs. This is a feature OF
good roads that calls for patience and
wise administration. The good road
attracts travel and unless it is looked
after continuously will deteriorate rap
idly and disappoint all who foot the
bills.

Assembly Districts

If the proposed constitutional amend
ments for the dividing of counties into
assembly districts is approved by the
voters of-the State September IA, one
of the most important duties that will
devo!ve upon next winters Legislature
will be the fixing of the boundary OF
the districts. The proposed amend
ment is worded with a view to prevent
ing the serrymandering that used to
characterize legislative acts fixing
assembly districts before the courts OF
the state decided that under the coEsti-
tuition Assembly men could only be
elected from the county at large. 1t is
provided, II at, each assembly district
shall contain, as nearly as practicable,
All equal number of inhabitants, and
shall consist of convenient aid contigu-
Gus territory in a compact form, but
no count, OF part thereof, shall he join
ed with any other county, OF part there
of, in any such district.
The Court of Last Resort, is invested
with exclusive original jurisdiction and
with full power, under such procedure
as it may by Sules, prescribe to review
any division al arrangement made by
the Legislature into Assembly districts
Of the counties of this State for the
purpose of determir 6 whether such
arrangement and division, OF any part
thereof, is i'll accordance or in conflict
with this section" This mean that The
courts can set aside any arrangement of
districts where there is a violation of
the T, quirements of the amendment.
This would seem to preclude horseshoe
districts extending from one end of the
country to another, and also the making
of some districts with very large popu-
lation and others with very small popu-
lation in order to serve partisan ends.

George L. Record has had his name
written on the slate of the New Idea
Republicans in Hudson county, and
hopes to win a seat in the house OF
assembly. AS IN office seeker, George
has been a busy man, but not always a
successful one.-State Gazette.
MI. Record has good ideas he knows
should be enacted into laws for the
peoples's good. Too many men who
90 to the the legislature have no ideas
and. never read the state constitution
to which they take an oath of office to
obey. They frequently serve only as
pawns to give further special privi-
leges to incorporate interest.

Burbank and the Watermelon

FROM Inc savannah News.
Luther Burbank the plant wizard of
California, is row doing things to the
watermelon. He thinks he will be able
to produce a seedless variety of excel
lent flavor and large size, but how the
melon is to reproduce itself is a prob
lem that is proving rather ~puzzllng.
LII the matter of seedless oranges
apples, grapes, and plums the repro
ductiun can be brought about by cut
tlngs, sprouts and roots, but the melon
vine does not lend itself 10 that sort of
propagation, since both the vine and
the root die at the end of The season.
and the next seasons crop must come
from the seed. However, since Bur
bank has solved problems as hard as
that one, We may reasonably expect
that he will get what lie goes after.
"A report says he also proposes to
grow the melon with a crooked neck
like that of the gCurd or squash, 50
that it may. be used a handle. We
doubt if the melon really needs a
handle. In general transportation the
handle would be in the way. But if
there must be handled melons: why not
nave W handles, one at each end?
Assuming II to be desirable. two
would certainly he better.
While Burbank is about it, could he
not fix it SO the melon would til when
It was ripe, as the peach, tile apple and
the plum do? The melon as we know
it now gives no Indication of it's sin
nards" by its outward appearance. 1t
may be as red and su eet and juicy in
side as tie hungriest and thirstiest
darkey could desire, or it may be as
green as a gourd and full of COLES
There is no sure way to tell. except to
Splug'' it; and the plugging spoils the
melon II it isn't quite ripe We thump
and thump it with our fingers and
make a guess as to what is within: but
there Is no esplunk" that is perfectly
reliable. The ''plunk" that sounds
good may LIE a false note that will
bring sorrow and chagrin to the pur-
chaser When the test of putting the
Anlfe into 1t comes. If Burbank would

sKaptin Kiddo' Is Out Next Sunday
NORTH AMERICANS NEW Como SERIES
an ATTRACTIVE SURPRISE

The North American promises something
out of the ordinary in the way of a feature
for its comic section, and it will introduce
it to its readers on Sunday, August 26.
The title of the new series is ''The Turr'ble
Tales OF Kaptin Kiddo." Grace G.. Wild
erseim draws the very attractive pictures
Of the"Kaptin's" adventures and Margaret
G.. Hays furnishes the tales. Both are out
of the ordinary and both are attractive.
The little boy in the series is the same
little boy that lives in every home where
there is a little boy, and that same little
boy is possessed of an imagination that is
always active. Most every parent knows
of a "Kaptin Kiddo."
The style of the work and the reputa-
titon of the joint authors ought to insure
the immediate success of the series.
