CANAAN DEFEATED
West Stockbridge Won From Canaan
 Thursday, Score 44-lO.

West Stockbridge Won From Canaan
 Thursday, Score 44-IO.
 Thanksgiving afternoon the local bas- ketball team went to West Stockbridge, to play that five return game and Ca naan lost by a score of 44.10. The game was fast bat those who witnessed the game adjudged it as being very rough. The home team shot baskets much better than when they were down here, and it seemed almost impossible for the local boys to drop one through the hoop. Fin negan and Cullen proved to be the best basket tossers for ike West ckbridge five, and Lamont of the Great Barring ton team. who played with West Stock bridge, was also noticeable because of his good guarding. Scott was easily the star for Canaan, for, out of the 10 points that the locals scored Scott secured eight of them and Wigglesworth the other two.
 This result gives each five game and the proposition of play ng the rubber is being considered, and, if such is done the game vlll probably be played in the town hall at Great Burlington. It seems as if this game should be played on a neutral floor, and then there would be no chance for a kick by either quintet.

Counterfeit Money

A representative of "The Counterfeit Detective" of New York has been in Pittsfield for few days. He had with him number of new and exceedingly clever commercials which were shown to the tellerS and other officials of the diff ferent banks. One of the bills, $100 one, was pronounced perfect save for the distinguishing silk thread. There are in circulation bills that are even nearer perfection, the thread being imi- tated by tracing on the paper.

This ,iO,s not, however, make things very profitable for the town, and it is because sush management as this has been going on of late years, that the vote was carried at town meeting to turn down all state aid in regard to appropriations for constructing state roads, The extra money is understood to have been paid for the cutting off of the corner and building of the walls in the vicinity of the Whittlesey residence.

 day.

day.
 On Wednesday evening before Thanksgiving, winter came on with a rush, and the hail fell fastly until late in the evening, when it slacked up some what. By dinner time, in the afternoon, about three inches had fallen and when one looked out of the window it gave the appearance of the old fashioned Thanksgiving days when our forefathers walked through the snow to church. with guns over their shoulders, to pro- tect their children and themselves from the Indians.
 Later in the afternoon, the hail changed to 6 rain but when evening arrived large snowfakes began to fall and before retiring time the ground was covered by about five inches of snow.
 The day was observed very quietly in this village, as there were no entertain ments of any kind, and services were held in the Congregational church only at 1O:30 in the morning. A few persons from out of town spent the day with re- latives here and other from that, Ca- naan was quiet.

part in the small boat race to be held
tomorrow under the auspices of the
Honolulu Yacht Club. The Ivy, which
has just been completed, will have her
first real tryout and is expected to show
a clean pair of heels. The only thing
that may interfere with the sport Of
the day is the fact that the weather
outsire the harbor has been rather
rough for the last few days, with the
waves breaking close to the channel
itself. With such small boats this
means that great caution must be used
to avoid accidents.

a Frequent Form Of Stomach Trou-
bic Readily Cured by Stuart'S
Dyspepsia Tablets.

This complaint constitutes one Of the
most common forms OF dyspepsia II is
the bane OF those who ignore natural
laws. and forget that the healthy action
or the stomach is dependent on the con-
dition Of both body and mind. Those
whose pursuits oblige them to pass much
OF their time within doors; men Of letters
and Of business, whose minds are seldom
perfectly relaxed. administrators. specu-
lators, fnanciers, and the various pro-
fessional men fall ready victims TO II.
Slow digestion occurs in persons Of all
temperaments and habits, but oftenest In
those Of irritable or nervous disposition
and anxious aspect Of coUntenance, who
are popularly characterized as "dyspep-
tic-looking" Eating too rapidly is a COM
mon. exciting cause OF the disorder, as is
also imperfect mastication Of food from
loss OF teeth
There IS also a deficiency Of the gastric
juices and an insuficiency Of the motor
and muscular or churning movements OF
the stomach walls, and the food remains
entirely too long in this organ. instead OF
being passed down into the small intes-
tine at the proper time,
Even q dinner not exceeding the ordi-
nary limits is followed at varying inter

fort. and should even a light supper be
taken horrible nightmare and troubled
dreams are certain to result.

made by sufferers from this form OF
stomach complaint. Many OF them actu-
ally dread the approach OF mealtime
knowing what disagreeable symptoms

charge Of its duties. a single grain Of tn
principal digestive ingredient Of thes
tablets being sufficient to digest 800
grains OF food. They not only digest tn
food, however, but also tone up an
