Ibut few feet when the well began
to NIL up with fluid and about thirty
barrels Of dark oil Of thirty-nine and

depth of 1850 feet deep bed Of

that the well does not fill up more

FAST BOUT AT NORTH ADAMS
"kid" Foster of Bennington Breaks
Even With Heavier Opponent

A number of boxing fans from this
village went to North Adams Thurs
day night to attend the boxing bout
given by the North Berkshire Athle-
tic club. The Bennington contingent
was especially interested in the ap-
pearance of kid Foster of this
village who was slated to appear in
the semi-final against Babe Lamour-
oux of North Adams. At the last
minute LamourouX withdrew his en-
try on the plea of an injured hand
and Charlie Sequin of North Adams
was called upon to fill the card Sc
quin weighed nearly 20 pounds more
than Foster but the Bennington boy
held his own and came through with
4 draw.
The main bout was between Young
Grady of Pownal and Joe Chick of
Gloucester and the "go' was pro-
nounced to be one of the best held in
North Adams during the year There
were number of spectators who
gave Grady the shade the better of
the contest but there was not much
choice between the boxers.

when FEELING TIRED
;lood's sarsapariIIa Builds. Up the
Whole System--Makes Pure Blood.

That tired feeling that comes to
you in the spring, year after year,
is a sign that your blood lacks Vi
tality, just as pimples, boils and
other eruptions are signs that it is
impure; and it is also sign that
Your system is in low or rundown
condition inviting disease. 1t is q
warning, which it is wise to heed.
Ask your druggist for Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This old standard
tried and true blood medicine re-
lieves that tired feeling. Tt cleanses
the blood, gives new life, new cour-
age, strength and cheerfulness. 1t
makes the rich, red blood that will
make you feel, look, eat and sleep
better.
Be sure to get Hoods, because it
is The best. There is no other COM
bination Of roots. barks and herbs
like it-no real substitute for it
no "just-as-good' medicine.
