Why anyone in Barton and Orleans
should continue to suffer. with indi-
gestionl when a box of Sewers Dys-
pepsa Tablets will cure, is certainly
a mystery. The E. w. Barron Com

actual experience right here in our
own town stores jus8 what Sewers.
Dyspepsia Tablets will do and If you
inquire of the above druggists they
will tell you they never knew rem
edy to prove so decidedly beneficial in
the treatment Of Indigestion, dyspep-
STA. palpitation.. sleeplessness and
other forms of stomach trouble.
1t certainly ought to- give you con-

| box of Sewers Dyspepsia Tablets
! contains 20 days treatment, and at the
end of that time if you are not deeid-

go back to the dealer and get your
money. Sewers Dyspepsia Tablets
are sold right on their own merits.
They cure indigestion simply by toning
up the stomach and digestive organs
so that the food will assimilate and
give strength to the system just as
nature intended. Seaver's Dyspepsia

Color of the Eye.

Brown eyes are due to brown pig
ment laid down in the iris; blue eyes
are due to a lack of such pigment.
When both parents are brown-eyed
the children get the tendency to form
iris pigment from both sides Of the
house, and the condition of the pig
ment is said to be duplex. If the chill
dren get the tendency from one par

but the condition is said to be sim

the iris blue eyed will never have
children with brown eyes, but only
with blue eyes. If both parents have
brown eyes simplex, then one In four
of the children will have blue eyes. II
one parent has simplex brown eyes
and the other has blue eyes, one-half
of the children will have blue eyes.
But If in both or either one of the
parents the blue iris fermentation Ia

BUT ONE OF FAMILY LEFT.

A tragedy in which g family was
almost entirely annihilated, occurred
few days ago at Chatellerault,
France. NJ. Jourdain was with his
wife and three children on the
banks of the Vienne. Nine. Jour
dain was standing on a sandy bank
about to battle her little daughter,
when the bank gave way and both
fell into the river, which is about
twenty-five feet deep. M. Jourdain
jumped in to save his wife and child,
but he, too, disappeared. Then the
eldest son, boy of sixteen, jumped
in and sank, the second boy, aged ten,
followed his brother, and was
drowning when Lieutenant Philip
ponneau, who was in a boat, arrived
on the scene and Owed after the
youngest boy. He seized the lad and
managed to reach the bank safely
with him. The bodies OF NJ. and
Nine. Jourdain and the two other
children were recovered later.

THEIR APPETITES WITH THEM
2H Pounds Of Meat and IL Quarts Of
Strong Drink Per Capita
Is French Record.

Frenchmen are pretty able trencher-
men, but the following account of a
meal made by eight Norman peasants
surpasses expectations. According to
the Medical Journal, a grazier with
seven of his friends undertook an ex-
petition to gather fagots.
Among them they should have man
aged some 400 fagots. but 81 repre-
scented the sum of their work, the
small total being accounted for, pos
sibly by the luncheon which the octet
devoured. They managed to consume
20 pounds Of meat, 8 quarts Of pure
perry, 16 bottles of assorted wines,
bottles Of champagne and quarts %
cider brandy of an alcoholic strength
of 65 per cent. A roast goose, placed
thoughtfully among the rations, was
not required.
This luncheon represents an aver
age of 21k pounds of meat and IL
quarts of milk, none Of 1t weak, per
capita during the II hours occupied
by the expedition.

LIFE INSURANCE is POPULAR
Moro Than Twenty-EIeht Million Per.
sons In America Hold In Reg
uIar Companies.

The number Of persons in this
country who make use of life insur-
ance as a means of saving exceeds
the total number who avail them
selves Of all the other recognized
modes of thrift.
If we add together the nine mill
lions Of savings bank depositors, the
seven millions of persons who own
their own homes, the two million
building and loan society stockhold-
ers and the million and three-quar-
tiers of corporation stockholders, we
shall have, not reckoning duplica-
tions, not more than twenty millions
of investors.
Whereas, according to Moody's
Magazine, the number of persons
who hold policies, ordinary and in
dustrial, in life insurance companies,
exceeds twenty-eight millions. These
twenty-eight millions do not include
the number of certificate holders in
fraternal and assessment associa-
tions, old line or legal reserve life
insurance being the only kind of in
surance that is worth the serious at
tention of business men.
The total life insurance carried in
the United States today is about
$3.50 a head of the population, a
sum considerably greater than that
of any other country in the world.
The companies reporting to the New
York insurance department had on
December 81, 1910, $14,68O, 1858, 1915
insurance in force. They had to-
tai premium income of 533,060,996
and assets amount to So, 665, $50, 536,
(which represents approximately al
large a sum of money as the total
savings in all the banks Of the
country.

There is an old tradition to the ef.

THE SAUcY YOUNG BRUTE
Prospective Mother-in-Law Didn't
Want to Lose Her Daughter, but
Why the Delay7

Mrs. DeGroff drew a deep sigh when
her daughter told her that she had be-
come engaged to Mr.. Bodies.
Il suppose it's foolish of me to feel
so bad about It," she said, wiping her
eyes, "but l can't help 1t. know it's
woman's destiny to be married, dear,
and l have always hoped that you
would marry and be happy. But a
mother can never lose a daughter
without feeling deeply on the subject.
She can never help regarding It as an
awful loss-a tragedy. She cannot give
up her little girl, even to the best man
that ever lived, without the deepest
reluctance"
But, mother, dear-I shall come
and see you often. And you mustn't
cry as II 1t were going to happen right
away. You will have time to get used
to It."
VIII I? How soon are you to be
married?"
Not for nearly year. Bob thinks
that"
mot for a year? What on earth
does he mean by putting 1t on that
long? l don't believe he intends to
marry you at all, the Sinking young
snip! If he did, he'd insist on having
the wedding before September. And /
shall tell him SO. You bring him to
time, Clara. You tell him that he'll
either marry you next month or never.
Huh! I'll show him!"

brought TO England in 1895.
The first thimbles were made OF

glass. The Chinese make beautiful
thimbles of carved pearl. with gold
binding and ends.
One of the most gorgeous thimbles

Education.

What Is education? Emerson says
that the greatest teacher is not the
teacher who supplies the pupil with
the most facts, but the one in whose
presence the pupil becomes better
person. The great secret of educa-
ton lies in respecting the wants Of
the pupil. 1t is not for us to say what
another shall know or even do. That
part of the game of life is chosen and
foreordained and the pupil alone holds
the key to his own needs. Emerson
begs US to respect the child. He re-
iterates his plea to respect and walt
and see the new product OF nature
develop. We are not to be too much

too often In his solitude. We are to
let him alone. Give the pupil an OPP

French Lawyers Went on strike.
Over 900 years ago one OF the most
unusual strikes ever recorded took
place In Paris, when all the lawyers
walked out. so to speak. A law or
ordonnance was issued and promul-
gated by the French king, Henry Ill.,
ordering all lawyers to sign their
pleadings and to state the amount
they we're charging their clients for
their services. This was done so
that the lawyers could be properly and
sufficiently taxed onptheir income. The
lawyers objected. and the strike. caus'
ing an entire stay OF judicial proceed
lngs, followed. Peace was restored
by the non-enforcement OF the ordon'
nance. though It was not repealed.
