w. p. Conkey is about half through
with the printing of the 100000 Will
liam Henry Maule seed catalogues
which are being mailed from the Ham
mond postoffice.
Each of these catalogues carried S
cents of postage, so that the Hammond

suit.
A force of postoffce clerks is at work

W. B. Conlsey is more than pleased

N|PPED BY ]. FROST
Coolest Day of the Year Is
Experienced in Region
Today.

Lake County experienced one of the
coolest nights of the year last night
This morning the mercury stood six
degrees above Zero. but the probabili-
ties are that 1t viii go no lower for
the present. But for the fact that
there was no snow on the ground and
that the atmosphere was clear, the
present weather would have brought
considerable hardship with it, for most
people were unprepared for the cold
snap after the long continued mild
weather.
The weather indications for today
are for fair and continued cold on
Thursday and fair on Friday with
slowly rising temperature brisk

When the blood is poor and thin,
and iae stomach III consequence is inn
perfect; supplied with oxidized blood
ard nerve force, the digestive process
becomes slow and fermentation of the
food goes on. with formation uf gas
and certain acids.
The pressure of the gas causes pain
in the stomach: sometimes it affects
the heart. When the gas is belched
ont through the mouth the patient is
temporarily relieved. The sour risngs
in the throat ana burning sensations
in the threat and stomach are caused
by the acids of fermentation.
There are plenty of things to neu-
tralize these acids or ''sweeten the
stomach as it is called, but they do
not cure the trouble. Pare. rich blood
which will tone up the stomach is re-
quired as the following cures show. A
careful reading of these honest state
