FORD RUNABOUTS FOR
OFFICIALS OF BOSTON

Ford runabouts will be purchased
for all employees of the city of Boston
who are provided with cars in the fu-
ture, according to a pronunciamiento
issued recently by Mayor curley of that
city.

cars now in use and putting in an
equipment of F'ords. the city will save
several thousand dollars without i'm

1.-THE old method of paying a fancy
price for city automobile, then hav-
ing an outlay of $1,000 for repairs, and
finally selling the machine for $3.50 al
public auction doesn't make for econ

At present the city of Boston owns

Boston is following the example o

Awaken TO NEEDS
Of THE HIGHWAYS
improvements in Roads Of
Canada to Be Made Under
Systematic Program.

Canada Is preparing for a syste- !
matte campaign for the improvement
of all her roads, especially those join
ing the Dominion with the United
States, according to an announcement
made by ]. s. Pennybacker, executive
assistant OF the American Highway as
ISOLATION, who has just returned from
the first Canadian road congress.
| American tourists who have been
distressed by Canadian roads Will well
come the announcement made by Mr.
Pennybacker because 1t is believed that
within comparatively short time it
will be possible to motor over good
roads in Canada. The chief obstacle
in the way of accomplishment of the
Canadian Good Roads association,
which Mr.. Pennybacker assisted in
forming is the fact that there are some
political differences between the pro-
vincial and Dominion governments as
to the expenditure of road funds. Com
menting on the situation, Mr.. Penny
hacker said:
| In spite of these obstacles, am
convinced that within short time
there will be noticeable improvement
of the roads in Canada. AS the con-
gress progressed, better understand
ing was apparent and political differ
ences were lost sight of. The Dominion
government, through its representative,
/ the secretary of state, seemed to take
a deep interest in the subject Of road
| Improvement and pledged the govern
ment to aid the provinces in every way
possible. While it Is true that the
roads in Canada, for the main part, are
in rather bad shape, this congress will
undoubtedly be the entering wedge to
la movement which will spread
throughout the various provinces. The
permanent organization which was
formed is designed to bring together all
factions and to unite the provinces into
one centralized movement for the bet
terment of roads
THE congress was a complete sue
cess. 1t was opened by Sir Francois
Langelier, governor of the province Of
Quebec; Sir Lomer Gouin, prime min
lister; Hon. u. III. Dandurand, presi-
dent of the congress. and other promi-
nent federal and provincial officials.
AS representing the American Highway
association, I conveyed to the congress
J the greetings of the Hon. Logan Waller
Page president of the American High
, way association, presided over one ses-
sion or the congress and was appointed
a member of the committee on perma-
nent organization of the new Canadian
Good Roads association"
Charles P. Light. field secretary of
the American Highway association re-
Gently returned from Philadelphia,
where he attended the conventions of
the manufacturers of road material
and the American Water Works as
ISOLATION, at which convention there
We're about 1000 manufacturers, street
and road officials in attendance. He
found great interest manifested in the
fourth American road congress, of
which he is business manager, and
which will be held In Atlanta, Ca,
early in November. He stated that the

terial would be the largest In the his

Mr.. Light will shortly begin a tour

How To Prevent
Acid StOmaChS And
Food Fermentation
BY a Stomach Specialist.

As a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment Of
stomach troubles, | have been forced to
the conclusion that most people who
complain Of stomach trouble possess
stomachs that are absolutely healthy
and normal. The real trouble, that
which causes all the pain and difficul.
ty, is acid in the stomach, usually due
to, or aggravated by, food fermentation.
Acid irritates the delicate lining of the
stomach and food mefmentation causes
wind which distends the stomach abnor.
mally, causing that full bloated feeling.
Thus both acid and fermentation inter.
fere with and retard the process Of al.
gestion. The stomach is usually healthy
and normal, but irritated almost past
endurance by these foreign clements
acid and wind. In all such cases-anl
they comprise over 30 per cent Of all
stomach difficulties-the first and only
step necessary is to neutralize the acid
and stop fermentation by taking in
little warm or cold water Immediately
after eating, a teaspoonful Of bisurated
magnesia, which is doubtless the best
and onlv really effective ap'a'l and
food corrective known. The acid will
be neutralized and the fermentation
stopped almost instantly, and your
stomach will at once proceed to digss:
the food in a healthy, normal manner
Be sure to ask your druggist for the
bisurated magnesia, as have found
other forms utterly lacking in rs pecu.
liArly valuable properties.-F. G.

WOman'S Hair

A Year Ago Was Threatened With
Baldness-Tells How She Made
Her Hair Grow.

Mrs. Esther Emery, now visiting
friends in the city, is the fortunate pos
SCISSOR of marvelously beautiful hair,
which, when loosened from its coils,
falls to her knees. Moreover it is of
soft, silky and fluffy texture and in
color a glorious glossy gold. Yet just
one year ago she was threatened with
badness. Urged to tell how she had
obtained this wonderful growth in so
short a time, she said: "Had any one
told me such marvellous results could be
accomplished so quickly, I positively
would not have believed it. Twelve
months ago my hair, which then reach
ed barely to my shoulders, was falling
out at an alarming rate and growing
very thin, actually exposing the bald
scalp in several spots. It was dull and
iifeless in color, turning grey in patches
and very dry and brittle. Ny head was
covered with dandruff and itched like

different hair tonics, but they were all

quickly my hair did grow. First the
hair stopped falling, the itching ceased
and the dandruff disappeared. Then
tiny little hairs appeared all over my
scalp. These grew and grew as though
nothing would ever stop them They
are growing yet, and while, of course, I
have used the treatment steadily and
expect to continue it, at least until my
hair reaches the floor might have
stopped and been perfectly satisfied at
the end of three months. ! think that

About tho Poorest Place to uss Il 10 In
the Classroom.
In a well known Boston school there
was a boy conspicuously dull ct his
Latin. He was a straightforward fel-
low and a gentleman by birth and
breeding. but he was bungler at syn
tax.
One morning he had tangled himself
in a simple phrase. The teacher asked
a question that should have cleared
him. But the poor lad did not know
the answer.
Then the teacher leaned back In his
chair rolled his gray eyes to the cell
ing and said for all the class to hear
II have been told that it Is a hard
thing to stuff a wildcat with butter,
particularly II you have to do 1t with
hot awl but that is child's play
compared with putting Latin in a boy
like this"
OF course the laugh came. but as the
boys laughed they despised the teach
er.

guage Of the devil" Be that as 1t
may, 1t has turned many a schooroom
into place of torment.
A boy may be too dull to be in school.
but while allowed to be there he can
never be dull enough to justify a knife
thrust from one whose first duty is to
help and cheer him Boston Herald.

1t is popularity supposed that the
oyster dlgests himself in the human
stomach owing to the great size of the
liver, which is crushed as mastication
begins and is thought to digest the
