A REBELLION.
Food Demanded.

abuse but sometime it will surely
rebel and demand proper food in place

Then is the time to try Grape Nuts,
the most scientific and perfect food in
the world.
A lady of Washington writes:
Three years ago 1 was very ill with
catarrh of the stomach and was given
up to die by one doctor. 1 laid in bed
four months and my stomach was SO
weak that l could not keep down
medicine or hardly any kind of food
and was so weak and emaciated after
four months of this starvation that
my daughter could easily lift me from
bed and put me in my chair.
But weak as my stomach was, it
accepted. relished and digested Grape
Nuts without any difficulty the first
time that wonderful food was tried.
Il am now strong and in better
health than for great many years
and am gradually growing still
stronger. l rely on Grape-Nuts for
much of the nourishment that l get.
The results have certainly been Won
derful in my case and prove that no
stomach is SO weak it will not digest
Grape Nuts.
My baby got fat from feeding on
Grape-Nuts. was afraid would
have to stop giving the food to him,

Craig's Point. and also the annex.
The first that was known of the
breaks was when Sunday noon a Mr..

saw two young fellows come out of

down to the shore get into a canoe
and paddle over to the west shore of
the lake. Only a meagre description
of the men in the canoe was secured,
it being that one of them was tall and
wore red sweater.
The places entered included in, addi-

BUOCLARS MAKE TWO

Norridgewock, Me-, Nov. 9.-(Spe-
ciaD .-Burglars made two breaks at
Norridgewock Sunday night and Mon
day morning but were unsuccessful in
making haul. The first break was
made in the section house of the
Maine Central, where the lock was
forced off. Tools including a crow bar,
axe, etc, were taken, evidently with
the idea to use in entering the w, H.
Huntoon grocery store. This store
seems to have been the burglars chief
Mechanic street with bar and then
blew the safe with -glycerine.
This was wrecked, knocking the door
into several pieces. AS it happened
Mr.. Huntoon had taken the money
home with him Saturday night and
had left the safe door unlocked, with
only the account books in the SAFE
The work looked like professionals
but the fact that they did not try
the safe door before blowing it to see
if it was unlocked indicates that per-
haps they were professionals.
They first bored a hole in the safe
door and stuffed the nitro glycerine in
with soap. The break was not discov-
cred until about o'clock Monday
morning but people through the VIII
lage heard an explosion about 1 o'clock
and several saw men going out of the
village. One said he saw an automo-
bile at that time going toward Oak
land. Others said that two men board
ed the morning train for Oakland Mr.
Hnutoon stated that when he was on
his way to church Sunday morning
he saw a man looking into his store
window and thought it strange and
turned back to watch him and soon
the man left Two school boys stated
that they were at the depot Monday
morning and saw man take the
train. He wore a light pair Of pants
and they heard him say to another
man, II want to get on the train with
out anyone seeing me-" Deputy Sher-
iff Webster was at the depot to watch
for suspects but the man jumped on
before he saw him. The boys declare
that the man had spots on his clothes
that looked like the nitro glycerine
spots that they saw In the store after
the break.
Sheriff. Frank Thompson and his
deputy began at work on the case
early in the morning but had no clue.

covered fire about the barn. When
the young man ran out towards the
burning building. he saw someone
standing on the other side of the road.
He could not distinguish that it was
his father, but whoever it was the man
shouted, Goodbye, Aleck," and dis
appeared into the darkness OF the
night.
The family removed Mrs. Kennedy
to a neighbours where she was cared
for in her terribly frightened and
Frustrated physical condition The
rest of the family fought the fire and
managed to save most of the turni-
ture and part of the belongings in
the barn. The loss on the building is
about $1,000 and there is an insurance
for but $500.
In the meantime, about midnight,
George A. Roberts and Frank Butch
er, who were going across the bridge
over the river, discovered, near the
first span a hat, a coat and vest, the
coat being somewhat bloody. These
were later identified as belonging to
Mr.. Kennedy and it was thought that
the blood came from cuts he received
when he leaped through the window
of his home. The Lisbon Falls authori-
ties were notified promptly and today

progress, in the hope of finding the

rohberies during the past week, and a
dozen or SO cottages have been broken
into and various articles of value
taken. There is little indication as to
whom the robbers are, except that
tramps or hoboes may have made the
rounds.
Most of the entrances were made by
prying open a window, or breaking the
glass, near window catch, or else
forcing a lock. Clothing, food, revolv-
ers, marine glasses and various other
articles that could be carried with
little difficulty were taken. The in
truders in making the rounds of the
camps slept in the beds and helped
themselves to whatever was in the
camp in the way of food. In one of
the camps three beds were disturbed
so there is every reason to believe
that there must have been a small
party of adventures.
The people who live in Belgrade and
North Belgrade throughout the win
ter months have seen no strangers
prowling around in the neighborhood
of the camps, and cannot seem to fas-
ten the guilt on amy probable thieves.
