Heat Is Quick to
Affect the Bowels
Weil-known Fact That Extreme Heat
Conduces to Chronic Constipation.

So many people are in the habit of
eating cold food in hot weather that
constipation is very common during
summer. 1t is best to vary the food
and have some hot things, as, for ex-
ample, soups and hot fish and meats,
If that is to be the diet. Iced water
should be drunk sparngly.
In spite of all care people will be-
come constipated, and if you find
yourself in that condition you can get
Immediate relief by the use of DR..
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. There is no
time of the year when you should be
more careful of constipation than in
the summer, for many of the serious
illnesses as well as the fatalities result
from a clogging up Of the bowels.
You also need general good health to
Withstand the heat, and hence Syrup
Pepsin is best to take because 1t con-
tains tonic ingredients that help to
build up the entire system.
Numerous users throughout the land
will verify these facts, among them
Mr. George c. Allen, 40s N. Main ST.,
Reading, Mass, who recovered his
health completely after using only two
bottles; and Miss Anna Schoff, 249 s.

IT Is seldom that wild water fowl are
seen along the busiest part of the
city's water front, but members of the
Augusta Yacht Club who were seated
on the clubhouse piazza Sunday after
noon were afforded the unusual OPP
portnity of seeing two specimens of
the grebe family commonly known as
devil divers drop into the water in
the cove directly across the river from
the clubhouse and swim around there
for about 10 minutes, regardless of the
fact that several motor boats passed
within a short distance OF them or
that troop of boys was in swimming
within rs yards These birds are not
uncommon on the lakes and ponds in
the vicinity of Augusta but it was just
little uncommon for them to drop in
to the river where there was so much
going on.

HORSE BREAKS JAW IN
A WILD RUNAWAY

What threatened to be one of the
widest runaways seen in the city in
years occurred at about / o'clock Mon
day noon when a horse attached to a
light driving wagon and owned and
driven by Fred S. Towle of West
Gardiner took fright at an approaching
electric car. The horse started at a
mad dash down over Rines hill. In the
wagon with Mr.. Towle was w. s. Bach
elder, also of West Gardiner. AS the
animal came down over the hill there
was a truck team a short distance
ahead and in trying to avoid colli-
sion Mr. Towle refined his horse to the
left toward the truss work of the
truss work of the bridge on the hill.
Just then the breeching broke, allow
ing the wagon to run onto the fright
ened animal, and in passing the truck
team, the shafts on the left hand side
struck the truss work of the bridge,
breaking the shaft short off near the
cross bar. The jolt of the collision
brought the horses head around quick
ly, so that the under jaw of the animal
struck a portion of the steel truss work
breaking three teeth and the jaw bone.
Mr.. Towle and Mr. Bachelor were
thrown from the wagon onto the pave
ment but luckily escaped serious in
jury. Mr.. Bachelor got through the
accident without a scratch, while Mr..
Towle received several bruises about
the body.
The animal was taken to Stilkey's
stable but the case was such that a
veterinary's services were of no use.
Later Mr.. Towle took the horse home
where he said he would be obliged to
have her killed

There are three necessities of life in a
republic intelligence, conscientiousness
and a spirit of quality. In order to de-
velop these the relation of master and
servant must be broken every week by
general observance of the Sabbath, and
the day must also be protected from dis
sipation, that there may be opportunity
for the mental and moral Improvement
of the masses. The Sabbath as observed
in Great Britain and the really American
parts of America makes men; while the
holiday Sunday keeps the people that
