REMOVED HEART OF CHOPIN
Before Evacuation Of Warsaw Rus
SLAMS Saw That FRIED Relic CT
Musician Was in Safety.

Before evacuating Warsaw tn,
Russians removed from the Churcl
of the Holy Cross the heart of TIKI
great musician, Chopin.
Chopin left Poland 10 seek his for.
tune in more favored lands in 1880
and was kept in exile by circum.
stances till his death in Paris.
His body rests in Pere-La Chaiso
cemetery, sprinkled with Polish
earth. His heart was sent back to
Warsaw to speak of his love for tor
tured Poland and TO inspire his coun-
trymen to hope and resolution" says
the Glasgow Herald.
His letters to his parents were de-
stroyed by the soldiers of General
Berg in 1868 in the sacking of the
house in which they were stored.
Paris swarmed with Polish refugees,
and Chopin found many friends
among them. List tells us he was
a pure, generous, good and compass
sionate man, filed with a single SEN
timent, the love of country.
But the man Chopin was very
reserved, and the not inconsiderable
Chopin literature does not bring us
into anything like close touch with
him. Only as a musician could he
unburden his heart freely to all the
world. In knowing his music we
know Poland" says the article quot
ed above.

GIRLS IN THE PROFESSIONS
Ve-y Few Take Their Occupations as
Likely to Be the Work Of
Lifetime.

Mary ChohDonlc!cv once wittilv
said that man looks tolerantly upon
friendships between girls. because
he says to himself Occupy until l
come"
The same might be said with ever
greater truth about a mans view Of
girls work and about her own view
Of it, for that matter.
As long as marriage is at any rate
a possibility, and as long as the pref
udice against woman's continuing
her professional career after mar
riage prevails, very few women will
take their professions as seriously as
man takes his.
Moreover, and this is even more
important, very few parents will take
&c preparation Of their daughters
for professional life a. seriously as
they take the preparation of their
sons,
As rule girls are not encouraged
TO consider what they will be while
they are children, whereas a father
and mother will talk to boy about
his future profession when he is only
ten or twelve years old.

the German so much that he could

Letters from soldiers stationed in
the thick of the activities in France
indicate that the veterans who have

trenches are coming to look upon
trench fighting simply as more OF

Rules Of Health
For Dyspeptics
Dieting Unnecessary

There are two ways by which people
who suffer from indigestion dyspepsia.
sour stomach, fiatulence, etc. can over
come the trouble First, as practically all
cases OF the above are directly or in
directly traceable to acidty and fermen-
tation, they can eliminate from their
diet all foods which ferment and form
acid, such as all starches and sugar and
foods containing them, thus prohibiting
bread. potatoes, fruits and most meats
About the only safe foods are gluten
breads, spinach and small quantities of
white meat of chicken or turkey. This
diet Is almost starvation one but it is
way. which appeals especially TO those
foods, is to eat whatever is reasonably
digestible, neutralZe the acid and stop
fermentation by the use of a good ant
acid such as bisurated magnesia, a tea
spoonful of which in little water imme-
diately after eating or whenever pain is
felt, instantly neutraliz4 the acid, stops
the fermentation and permits the stom-
ach to do its work without pain or him
drance. Owing to its simplicity, conven-
fence and effectiveness this latter plan is
now being adopted. instead of the old
fashioned, expensive, weakening starva-
ton process. In this connection it is in
teresting to note that since the wide
spread use Of bisurated magnesia was
established. many druggists have ar
ranged to supply it in or. tablets . or 3
Of which are equivalent to a teaspoonful
Of the powder form and are much more
convenient to carry.

CHAIRMAN POINTS
THE NECESSITY OF
ELEcT|NG TICKET
Maine Republicans Must Send
Two Senators to Washington
or Democrats May Control
That Body with a Republi-
can President

While sweeping Republican victory
in Maine next week is indicated from
every point of view, the need of it can
the Hon. F. J. Ham, chairman of the Re-
publican State Committee, Wednesday.
Our victory needs to be sweeping for
the sake of the whole national cause
That is affected in very vital way in
this election. The occasion is unusual
BESIDES electing a President and a ma
tional House of Representatives, the peo-
pie, really for the first time, elect U. S
Senate. For complete Republican sue
cess all three must be carried and so far
as Congress is concerned the beginning
will elect two senators and four repre-
sentatives.
If on Monday the people Of Maine elect
two Republican senators a long step
will have been taken to provide a Repub-
lican Senate for President Hughes. The
election Of one Democratic senator will
virtually mean that the Senate will con-
tinue Democratic for the next two years.
The present Democratic majority is II
but while large it is possible to overcome
1t in the fall elections by a gain of eight
Republicans. 1t can just be done by the
election Of two Republican senators in
Maine. With success in our State the
Republicans elsewhere will feel encour-
aged to multiply their efforts to secure
Republican Senate. The duty of Maine
Republicans therefore is plain. 1t is i'm
perative. They can make or mar the
most brilliant Republican success pos
sible. AS has been stated this is not the
time for any good fellow voting on the
basis of personal friendship. The coun-
try's issues are too grave. Col. Frederick
Hale and Governor Fernald must be
sent by US to the Senate The Maine dele
cation in the upper chamber must be Re-
publican again as of yore. Maine on that
score has not been itself, and the State
and country has felt uneasy about It ever
since the condition has existed. Repub-
licans, indeed the whole people, must see
to it that the entire delegation from
Maine in Congress is made Republican
once more. Under such auspices the
State may be expected to regain her for
mer prestige in the capitol Of the nation.
The opportunity is now before US in its

CORP. NORMAN
MURPHY RETURNS
FROM TEXAS LINE

Corporal Norman Murphy returned
Saturday evening from Zapata, where
he has been stationed for the past few
months. His time elapsed July 6, but
he was held as a reserve until two
weeks ago. He stated that the boys
were in the best Of health and spirits,
have become nicely acclimated, and are
now perfectly contented. He added that
he was as sorry to leave as he had been
to go, that the troops are being we'll
fed and cared for, and that the climate
there is not bad at present the boys
playing baseball during the hottest part
Of the day. He says there has been
very little sickness among the troops,
and that the Sd Battalion has made an
enviable record. Eight days after their
arrival they did a 62-mile hike in rec
ord time for that climate. only six Of
the men being unable to complete It..
He stated that I'd Lieut.. Henna is very
popular with the Machine Gun Com
pany. the boys looking to him as nat
ural leader. Among other things he
said that the commissary are trying
out rice to partly take the place Of
beans as staple ration, and that so
lar the results nave peell very SdtlS-
factory. Corporal Murphy said that a
short time ago Col Hume killed large
wild bull. which was eaten by the Off
GERS.
His belief is that the sending Of the
troops to Mexico has accomplished
three things: First, it will add $4,000
or 10000 men to the regular army;
those who do not enlist as regulars will
be as well trained as the regulars them
selves; and third, 1t has demonstrated
very fully that boys from the Northern
states can stand the climate very nicely
in spite of popular opinion to the con-
trary. Corporal Murphy himself lost
% pounds while in Texas, acquired a
deep tan, and Is in rugged condition in
