Take Plenty of Time to Fat.

There is a saying that rapid eating is
slow suicide. " If you have formed the
habit of eating too rapidly you are most
likely suffering from Indigestion or con-
stipation, which will result eventually in
serious illness unless corrected. Digest
ion begins in the mouth. Food should be
thoroughly masticated and insalivated.
Then when you have a fulness of the
stomach or feel dull and stupid after
eating, take one of Chamberlain's Tab
let's. Many severe cases of stomach
trouble and constipation have been cured
by the use of these tablets. They are
easy to take and most agreeable in effect.
Sold by all dealers.

Trouble On State Road.

During the past week a number of the
Italians working on the State Road south
of town We're discharged and laborers of
this community employed to do the work.
As far as possible the two classes were
kept apart.
The Italians did not take kindly to be-
ing discharged and after talking the mat
ter over Sunday, came out Monday morn
ING and demanded that the American
men be discharged, and if they were not,
trouble was in sight.
Contractor Forsythe had not then re-
turned from Baltimore, and the men
were in charge of sub-boss Dennis
Things became 100 hot for him and ne
ordered all to quit work until noon. He
then came to town andrelated his troubles
to constable Iidie and waited until he
could see Mr.. Forsythe.
The interpreter for the Italians also
came to town and met Mr.. Forsythe.
After conference all men were ordered
to go to work. the Italians being told in
no uncertain way where to work and
what to do.
Wednesday more trouble occurred.
This being between contractor Forsythe
the Italian boss who, we understand con-
tracted to furnish labor, the latter sueing
for transportation charges.
About twenty-five Italians are here
without employment, one side claiming
that these men struck and were dis
charged, the other that they were re-
fused work when they were brought here.
The case was held over until Monday OF
next week.

Lake View Hotel Burned.
Origin of Fire Unknown. Pro.
perry Fully Insured.

On Tuesday night last, Lake View
Hotel, situated along the Frederick &
Hagerstown Railway near Lewistown,
was burned to the ground.
Fire was discovered about g. 80 o'clock,
it first being seen in the basement of the
building by Mrs. Ramsburg, wife of the
owner and proprietor, Mr.. Charles j..
Ramsburg, who was returning to her
home from Lewstown. With several
men Mrs. Ramsburg went to the build
ing, but owing to the absence of water
little could be done and the flames soon
found their way through the four floors
to the roof.
Mr.. Ramsburg was in Frederick and
as soon as he learned of the fire hurried
home.
The building was four story frame
and concrete structure and stood on
hill overlooking a large artificial lake.
1t was Mr.. Ramsburg' s intention to open
the hotel for the summer July LIST.
About four years ago the large casino
building situated near the hotel was
burned, the fire occurring in the early
morning. Roller skating, dancing and
bowling at the casino attracted large
crowds from Frederick and Thurmont.
The casino was never rebuilt and it is
said there is little hope that the hotel
will be rebuilt.
The loss on the hotel is placed at $50, 600
and is said to be fully covered by insur-
ance, Halter and Newman, of Frederick,
having insured the property.
The fire was plainly visible at Thur
mont and few people in automobiles
run to the fire.

About The SchOOlhOuse.

We are asked many times about the
new schoolhouse which is to be built at
this place; when work is to begin being
the principal inquiry. All we can say at
this time is that the site has been select
ed; that an architect is preparing plans
for the building and that as soon as plans
suitable to the Board of School Commits
sioners can be secured and adopted, bids
will be asked for the construction of the
building. In all probability bids will be
asked for in about ten days time.
