Taft's speech about the parting Of the
ways
.tOre man told me he hadn't been able
to figure out how it was that he had
to Day $32 a thousand for cut Douglas
fir timber ard $11 a ton for coal. w men
explained how the Canadian tarlH
enabled the dealers to charge those
figures he scratched his head and SAID
he wished somebody had told him about
that before election. I heard many men
who had voted hard against reciprocity
admit they had been very foolish
Speaking of coal, Pennsylvania btu
rninous is now being hauled 1900 miles
to ward off a coal famine in Canada
There are strikes in the Canadian mines,
and the tariff has been temporarily
taken off awaiting a settlement of the
disputes On the first cold spell of this
season the thermometer dropped away
down to AZ degrees below zero, ana they
were fearful of a terrible winter up
there One cowman told me that con-
ditions seemed to promise a repetition
of five years ago, when a herd OF 5.UUO
cattle he was tending dWindled TO 1,zOV,
the rest being frozen to death
I'VE came across ever so many Eng
fish remittance men up there, and the
country is full of stories about them
A cowman told us of one whose folks
had sent him over to make fortune
out of some sort of farming. He bought
a small place and then he sent for a
dealer to come and bring a lot OF
farming machinery and implements
and explain the uses of each. When
the dealer had finished the E1nglishman
shook his head
q I fear he said, that sort of farm
ing involves too much eXertion- want
something that will not tax my
strength too much Finally he decid-
ed to take up raising chickens, and as
the principal exertion about that seem
ed to be watching the lamps in the
incubators, the remittance man liked
it. His young chicks were hatched'

experts first question
'Er-what? I don't believe catch

What do you give them to eat?'
Give them to eat! Why, my dear
chap, 1 have several hens, and, Of
course, 1 let the little chickens feed as

digest the food themselves. because
they contain only the natural elements
of the digestive fluids
Coated tongue, bad breath, heartburn,
belching, fatulency, bloat-all the
symptoms of digestive troubles disap-
pear quickly when these tablets are
used They are not a cure for anything
but dyspepsia and kindred complaints
But they have brought relief to more
sufferers from digestive diseases than
all the patent medicines and doctors
prescriptions put together.
The stomach does the heaviest work
of any Of the bodily organs, yet it's the
one we treat with the least regard. We
eat too much of the wrong kind of food
at any time. The patient stomach
stands such treatment rs long as it can
and then it rebels. You get notice Of
the rebellion in the shape of the gases
and pains caused by undigested, fer
menting food
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will put
and enable you to eat what you want
when you want it. Garry them around
with you; they are an actual substitute
for a weakened, -'all-in' stomach. They
act in a hurry when you want relief:
they act quickly, promptly, safely and
naturally in digesting your food, just
as Nature does herself; they bring the
stomach back to normal condition.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
and recommended by all druggists at
SOC and $1.0O a box If you would like
a trial package we will send you one
free, on receipt of your name and ad-
dress. Write to F. A Stuart Co, $50

AN AGED DEsERTER GIVES UP
Patrick Butler, Aged go, Wants An
other Chance as Soldier.

Leavenworth, Kan, Feb. 9.-After
wandering about the country for thir-
ty-nine years with the charge of be-
ing a deserter from the army hover
ing over him, Patrick Butler walked
into the post guard house at Fort
Leavenworth today and surrendered
to the sergeant of the guard.
L am glad to relieve my con-
science" he remarked as he told the
sergeant who he was.
The commissioned officer at
first did not believe Buffers story
but the mans insistence that he
could prove his statement finally con-
WINGED the sergeant, who took the self
committed deserter before the post
adjutant, Capt J. J. Toffey. Captain
Toffey questioned Butler closely, but
could not shake his story
Butler said that he came to Amer
lea from Ireland in 1870. In 1873 he
enlisted in the army and joined Com
pany E, Second infantry, at Chatta-
nooga, Tenn. Several months later he
deserted and has evaded arrest ever
since.
L would like to have another
chance to show what a good soldier I
can be-" said Butler, but I'm afraid
my sixty years make me too old, and
guess the drill regulations have
changed since I enlisted, too
A telegram was sent to the adjutant
general in Washington, asking that
an attempt to verify Buffers story
be made. If it is found true, the man
will be given a deserter's discharge
and his freedom.

A PRACTICAL BENEvoLENCE.

Barre rather envies st. Adams its
prospects Of having clubhouse for boys
and young men, for that kind OF an In
stitution, non-sectarian in nature and
designed for the physical, mental and
moral well-being of the young men of
the city, is just what Barre needs ana
what it has hoped to secure The rail
road shops probably bring a great many
young men TO st. Adams from smaller
communities and from distant cities,
Just as the granite industry brings hun
dreds of them to Barre and large
proportion of the newcomers have TO
find homes in boarding houses and other
places where the accommodations are
necessarily limited so far, at least, as
physical recreation is concerned and per-
haps in other ways. Therefore, to bring
these boys and young men into an
institution, where they can secure the
benefits of muscular exercise can spend
leisure moments in reading and mora
over, be under good influences, is one of
the most important works which com.
munity has to perform for its people
Happily, ST. Adams has had its problem
partially solved at least by the generous
donation of former st. Adams man,
which has made possible strong start
toward the forming of club. It is
line Of practical philanthropy that
will do much toward the betterment of
that municipality, as it would in the
case of any community, provided the in
stitution is properly managed and care
fully watched to see that no disturbing
features are brought in. For that rea-
son the present and future St. Adams
win have much reason to thank Mayor
William w. Seymour of Tacoma, Wash
ington, for his thoughtful generosity.
He has remembered his former home city
in a splendid way,
