with wanton waste. ruthlessly de-
stroyed one of our natural food
resources. the sturgeon. This
shameful business went on for eight
or ten years. and the State did not
raise one finger 70 protect itself
against these despoilers. Sturgeon
were caught BY the hundreds. the
roe taken out and the fish thrown
overheard. This not only destroyed
profitable industry. but deprived
as of the cheap and wholesome
meat that these fish afforded; few
years ago this meat was peddled
around over the country and sold
for three cents a pound; now We
cannot get it at any price.
Northern lumbermen are now raw

FOR "A UNION STATION.

No good reason has been advanced
why we should not have union sta
tion in Lancaster, so before the Lam
caster & Chester depot is rebuilt we
wish to renew our plea that instead
OF having two stations within the
same block, we have one handsome
and commodious building to be used
by both the Southern and l.. & c.
railways. Both together might erect
a splendid union depot, whereas
neither by itself would likely consider
building very pretentious one.
We feel that this is a matter of
some moment to Lancaster, for such
action would result in good, creating
an excellent impression upon strang-
ers, many of whom Judge of the inn
portance of the town entirely from the
car window. Then, too, it would add
greatly to the comfort and conven-
ience of our people, as we'll as in
spire in them more civic pride.
1t is a well-known fact that good
architecture, like good literature,
has a cultural effect, that the people
who look upon good buildings are
often led to care for beauty and ex-
cellence of design, merely because it
is constantly before them.
We are about to make extensive
improvements here in Lancaster
More streets are to be paved
and spirit of progress is
everywhere in evidence 1t is
desirable at this time then that
the two railroads get together and
give us n union station which will be
i'm keeping with our growing needs
We have no chamber of commerce to
push this plan but some citizen with
an interest in the town could soon
secure enough signatures to give the
matter enough weight to be consid-
cred seriously by the railroad au-
thoritics.

In spite of the greatest personal

that constipation and indigestion

tus is to start life without handicap.
But, as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels, we must do the next
best thing and acquire them, or train
them to become healthy. This can
be done by the use of laxative
tonic very highly recommended by a
great many mothers The remedy is
called DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
and has been on the market for two
generations. 1t can be bought con-

It's mildness makes it the ideal
medicine for children, and il is also
very pleasant to the taste. 1t is sure
in its effect, and genuinely harmless
Very little of it is required and it's
