your stomach, OF if you have heart
burn, that is a sign of Indigestion.
Ask your Pharmacist for a so
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin and
take one triangule after supper to
night. There will be no sour lis
ings, no belching of undigested food
mixed with acid, no stomach gar or
heartburn, fullness or heavy feeling
in the stomach, Nausea, Debilitat-
ing Headaches, Dizziness or Iutes-

besides, there will be no sour food

Pape's Diapepsin is a certain cure
for all stomach misery, because it

FLOATING SLUM OF CANTON.
Where the Poor of a Great Chinese
City Live.

Stand beside the imperial custom
house at Canton China, and let the
eye range down the river toward
Hong Kong. As far as the sight
can reach lie boats. boats and again
boats. These are no ordinary craft,
mere vessels of transport plying
hither and thither. but the countless
homes of myriad Chinese, in which
millions have been born, have lived
and died. They are the dwellings Of
the very poor. who lie in them
practically free from rent. taxes and
the other burdens of the ordinary
citizen.
The Tankia (Which means boat
dwellers) as the deniZeDs of these
floating houses are called, form a
sort of caste apart from the rest of
the Cantonese. The shore dwellers
regard them as belonging to q lover
social order. and indeed they have
many customs peculiar to them
selves which mark them as sera-
rate community. How the swarm
ing masses of them contrive to SUP
port existence is mystery, but their
chief mode of employn ent is in car
rying merchandise and passengers
from place to place. In some cases
the daughters of the family 20
ashore to work in factories; but the
years earnings of a Chinese factory
girl would scarce suffice to buy
single hat for her western sister.
OF course as against this low rate
of pay the standard of living is cor
respondingly different.
The houses which make up these
vast floating slums are of all sizes.
Some are but fifteen feet long. From
there cramped dimensions. however,
they range up to a length of fifty or
sixty feet A boat large enough to
accommodate a family of mode ate
size can be obtained for $40. and
since the anchorage is free ii is OBJ
vious that the Tankia effect many
savings impossible to the shore
dwelIer.

What Others Say.

Too many merchants in the small
er towns of Vermont allow them
selves to be frightened by he buga-
boo of catalog competition by the
big mail order houses. Intelligent
advertising, study of the sort OF
stuff sent out by the outsider who
pays no taxes and steady campaign
Of education on quality would soon
place The home merchant beyond the
fear of catalog competition. He has
all the argument on his side and the
home paper is the place to set it
forth specifically Rutland Herald.
Bear this in mind; farmer who is
successful in making living for
himself and family, who gives his
sons and daughters an education,
who has time to take an interest in
public affairs and has not killed his
ambition and dnlied his penetration
by hard work and narrow out view
that man is the peer of any captain
OF industry, and immensely superior
in the independence ard strength of
his situation as producer and man
ufacturer.
Farming is a good business and
will pay good, liberal profits when
intelligence goes with the daily toll !.
1t won't pay anything hut misera-
bic living when unthrift, ignorance
and incompetence enter into it; the
fact that it pays living at ali under
such conditions is in itself a remark
able tribute to the generous bounty
of the soil and the profigate hand
with which nature distributes her
favors.
Be a farmer if you NOW enough;
it is the worst trade in the world for
the idle and ignorant, but, at the
worst, it will pay a living OF how
many other trades is this true p

Elroy Kent must suffer the pen
atty for committing one of the most
atrocious crimes that has ever oc-
Cured in this state. His trial in
Rutland county court is concluded
and the jury has rendered it's ver-
dict of guilty of murder in the first
degree. The penalty is death, but
the hanging cannot take place until
after the session of the legislature of
1910 to give that body an opportun-
ity to commute the sentence to life
Imprisonment. This is the first in
stance of verdict of murder in the
first degree having been rendered
by Vermont jury since the Mary
Rogers trial If vil-disposed per
sons will learn from this trial and it's
outcome that, even though no one
may witness the crime, yet the crimi>
nal is found and is punished; then the
punishment has served it's purpose,
which is to prevent an increasing
amount of crime in the community.
The penalty for murder is awful.
Would that this might be impressed
upon everyone with a murderous de-
sire in his heart.
