OBITUARY..
Ellen B. BarrOws.

Mrs. Ellen B. Barrows died at
her home in New York City, on
Tuesday, Nov. Is, after very
short illness. Pneumonia was the
cause of death. She was about So
years of age. She was well known
in Laporte, having spent number
of summers here with her daughter
Mrs. Ellery P. Ingham.
Mrs. Barrows resided for many
years in the city of Philadelphia
where her husband was in business
up to the time of his death.
1t is a matter of history that
during the war of the Rebellion
there was maintained in Philadel-
phia, chiefly by the ladies of that
city, what was called a Soldiers
Refreshment Saloon, but which
combined in reality, hospital with
saloon. Soldiers passing through
that city, going or coming, were
entertained and if sick received
hospital care and medical treatment
entirely free of charges or expense.
Mr.. Barrows contributed largely to
this enterprise, and Mrs. Barrows
gave her whole time to it for near
ly four years without any compen-
Sation whatever. In connection
with her other duties she acted as
Secretary of the Association, and
retained the records, with many
mementos of the war, up to the
time of her death
Mrs. Barrows had many friends
iii New York and Philadelphia and
also in Massachusetts, where the
homestead of the Barrows family
has been kept up for several gener-
atiOns. Her friends in Laporte
mourn sincerely and feel that in
her death they have suffered a
great loss.
The funeral services were held in
Philadelphia and her remains were
inferred in Laurel Hill Cemetery
by the side of the remains of her
husband.

Groceries, to be choice must be

That's just what we are doing.
Therefore our groceries are fresh

PAYMENT of BOuntieS.

for the killing of wild
cats, foxes and minks. This has
been many times answered, but
still the question is asked and with
good reason, and / now submit the
following explanation for the ben
eft of those who may be interested:
The Act of July 8, 1897, giving
bounties for the destruction of wild
cats, foxes and minks, has been de-
clared unconstitutional and void
because of a defect in the title of
the bill. The Act of April II, 49,
10, was passed for the purpose of
curing the defects in the former
act but the Superior Court in the
case of Bennett VS.. Sullivan, 80
Superior Court 100, held that the
correction was worse than the er-
ror, and of course the Act of 1897
was without force or effect, or as
though it had been written upon
water
This left the slayer of these OBJ
noxious animals without any COM
pensation for his brave efforts to
benefit the community at large un-
til the legislature of 1907, came to
the rescue by passing an almost
similar act, but on reasonably
constitutional basis, providing for
the payment of these bounties by
the State, and made an appropria-
ton of $40, 900. 90 for that purpose.
After the passage of the latter
act everything went well. The
bounties were paid and there was
no complaint. But trouble again
arose. The legislature of 1909
must have had it in mind that the
$40, 100000 appropriated in 1907
was sufficient to have exterminated
all the wildcats, foxes and minks
in the State and far beyonds its
borders, because it made no addi-
tional appropriation to enable the
good work to be continued. Fol-
lowing the adjournment of the ses-
sion of the legislature of that year
the Commissioners of Sullivan
County received a letter from the
Auditor General, in relation to the
PAYMENT of bounties, which is as
follows:
To the County Commissioners,
Laporte, Pa,
Gentlemen: This is to advise you
that the Legislature failed to make
any appropriation for the payment
of bounties on noXiOus animals for
the two years beginning June, /,
1908. 1t did make an appropria-
ton of $40, 100000 to pay the de-
fciency that already existed. OF
this over s27 100000 is already due
to the various Counties for the bal
ance of the bills that were due up
to August IA, 1908, at which time
we distributed the balance of the
former appropriation then in the
treasury. From data on hand, we
are convinced that the remaining
$13, 100000, will not be sufficient to
reimburse the Counties for those
bills which have already been paid
but not presented to this depart
ment. We have, therefore, to re-
quest that you pay no more of these
scalp bounties.
Yours truly,

Acid Dyspepsia
Nervous People Are Frequent Sufferers
From Too Much Hydroehlorio Acid
In The Stomach,
A Trial Package Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Sent Free.

Tablets Sent Free.
Sour stomach" or acid dyspepsia is
a form OF indigestion in which entire
ly too much hydrochloric acid is Sc
creted by the stomach. A sour taste
in the mouth is the most common
symptom Of acid dyspepsia; and the
saliva, which is normally alkaline, is
found when tested, to be changed to
acid. or just the opposite Of what it
should be, and is a state Of the secre-
tion which causes rapid and extensive
destruction of the teeth.
Everything eaten turns more or less
sour in the stomach. but sweets and
acid fruits arc far worse in this re-
spect than other foods. II the eructa-
tion Of liquids from the stomach oc-
ours, they have such an extremely
sour taste as to set the teeth on edge
Hydrochloric acid is an important
constituent in the gastric Juice. but
when too much Of IL is secreted. Il does
positive harm to the mucous lining or
the stomach; and when acid dyspepsia
is long continued it often sets up
chronic gastritis gastric ulcer. and
other serious diseases. The premature
loss Of all the teeth has been caused
BY acid saliva, which was dependent
upon the excessively acid condition Of
the stomach.
STUARTS DYSPEPSIA TABLETS,
besides furnishing pure. aseptic pepsin
to the stomach to dilute the excess OF
hydrochloric acid, and to digest pro-
teids and albuminous foods very thor
oughly, also contain bismuth subni-
trate and calcium carbonate which are
antagonistic to the acid. and therefore
neutralize the effect Of the excessive
amount OF acid in the stomach, and
the continued use OF these tablets Will
change the perverted condition OF the
secretions 10 a normal state.
II you are suffering from hyper
chlor- hydria." as physicians term il.
or in other words, acid dyspepsia and
experience a sour taste in the mouth,
with acid eructations or heartburn, be-
gin at once the use of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, using one or two after
each meal, or as may be required, and
the same quantity at retiring time, for
if this trouble Is allowed to run on,
1t may cause serious organic changes
in the stomach. There are cases on
record where the lining Of the stom-
ach has ben completely eaten away
through perverted action OF the secre-
tions.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have been
tried in all forms of indigestion and
dyspepsia. with unfailing success, so
