One of Blaine 5. Viles' moth hunt
ing crew relates a peculiar experience,
which happened to him while at work
in Hallowell. the other day. He is en-
gagged in gathering moth nests for the
down river city and at the close of
his days work is required to turn in
the captured nests to Mayor Beane.
One nightslast week, he failed to find
the meal bag full of nests, which rep
resented his days work. The next day
he accused a boy, who had been loaf
inga bout the place where lie had
been working, of taking the nests.
The boy denied taking them himself,
but finally admitted that his father
had taken them TO bed his horse. The
moth hunter accompanied the boy to
the stable and found the moth nests
under the family horse, where they
had been used for bedding. The thrifty
owner of the horse was required t.
pick up the moth nests and put them
in the bag and deliver them to the
man who had originally taken them
The moth-hunter, in telling the
story, remarks that it was fortunate
for the horse that the weather waf
not warm enough to arouse the Httlt
occupants of the nests.

FOR EVERY FAMILY
MEDICINE CHEST

To the head of every family the
health of its different members is
most important, and the value of an
agreeable laxative that is certain In
it's effect is appreciated. One of the
most popular remedies in the family

strengthen the muscles of stomach,
liver and bowels so that these organs
are able in short time to again per-
form their natural functions without
help.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and $1.00
bottles. If you have never tried this
simple, inexpensive, yet effective
remedy, write to DR.. w. B. Caldwell.
