That's the Secret!

Persons who use Uncle Sam
Food, simply laugh at,the great
American curse Of constipation
and appehdicitis!
Because the FLAX in Uncle
Sam Food turns to oil in the
intestines and lubricates the
whole digestive tract 50 that
the food g);des.
Yet the food has net the
fainter taste or flavor of oil!

Of Italy, which makes the
Italian stomach and bowels
almost constipation-proof.

A CANAAN MAN GETS
RICH QUICK
Finds Animals Bearing Fur to the
Value OF Thousands In Traps. All in
One Morning.

Monday morning, Jesse Herrin, a
Canaan trapper found upon investiga
ting his traps, that ensnared there
in were animals bearing fur which
sands of dollars. His findings includ-
ed a black fox, valued at $4,000 and
a gray fox valued at $1,000, as well as
] two red foxes.
i The story is that Mr.. Herrin of Ca
naan, while going through the woods
/ towards Pittsfield, set his traps for
/ foxes, with the idea of getting red
ones only He set one near the prem
ises of a farmer In West Pittsfield,
with his permission. He went to his
! traps several times, but found no
game until Monday when he approach
ed his first trap to his great amaze
ment a black fox was found in it.
He did not kill this animal but bound
him in a way to get him to the road
side where his wife was waiting with
/ the team and took him home and the
fox Is now securely penned and alive.
He went back to look at the rest of
his traps and the next two that he
came to had red foxes in them. He
killed them and skinned them. Going
he found a gray fox which he also
killed and skinned. His head swim
ming with delight and almost too hap
py to contain himself he hurried out
of the woods to the road where h,
told his wife to be waiting. When h;
got there, to his great amazement, HI
found that his wife had shot a biz
buck deer. She said that while, sitting
in the carriage quietly waiting hel
husbands return, holding her rife ir
her lap, thinking she might see part
ridge, she suddenly saw the head of
big buck deer, erect, a short distance
away from her and staring at her. She
deliberately but slowly raised hel
rifle and aimed as near to the deer'e
shoulder as she could and fired. Tho
deer dropped but rose again, but after
leaping but few rods fell dead.
Mr. and Mrs. Herrin then went or
to examine more of their traps aut
when they approached the farm build.
ings where they had set the trap they
found that the trap was gone and
that by appearances an animal had
been caught in it. Further investi-
cation proved to Mr.. Herrin that i,
must have been black fox and the
matter is still being looked into, this
successful trapper having reported the
matter to the proper officials.

Contest In New Hampshire Appears
to Be Very Close

Concord, y. H., Nov. 6.-New
Hampshire was still a doubtful state
at s a. m. today, although additional
returns up to that hour showed Gov

turns from 230 out of 290 election pre-
cincts up to a. m. the vote was:
Wilson "a, 661, Taft % SIG, Roose-

The people failed to elect gov
ernor by the necessary majority vote
and the states next executive will be
chosen by the legislature. Control of
this body, which Is to choose also a
United States senator, is claimed by
both Republicans and Democrats, and
full returns are still lacking.
