NOSE MORTON scAREs
 ASSOCIATE WORKERS
Appears in Bunkhouse of Railroad
 Men Clad in White Garment.

MT. Moses Morton of Drake's Cross ing, Charlotte county, Virginia. sah, was responsible during the darkest of the dark hours of early Friday morn Ing for creating consternation among the thirty co1ored construction work CTS who were sleeping peacefully in their bunkhouse in the local railroad yards. -e n.s-r. =.% sc.e e-sie
 There are those among them who are not altogether sure that ghosts have been eliminated from among the features of modern life, so when "Mose" appeared to them at 330 O. r1 clad only in his night shirt, they felt reasonably sure that a belief in ghosts was substantially permissible.
 Nose is a fellow worker of the construction men who were brought into this section from southern states 8 few weeks ago. Since coming here he has lost weight rapidly and Tues day. while with the mworl train crew at Danielson, he waS taken so i'll that Dr. George M. Burroughs of that town was summoned to the train to see him. pr. Burroughs promptly ordered Nor ton sent to the Day -Kimball hospitaI much to Mir. Morton's surprise and terror, for he is not partial to hospi- tals. But they took him along just the same. f
 All the things that may have passed through the mind of Nose while he lay on his cot in the ward have not been given to the world to know, but something finally happened, during the small hours of Friday morning, that determined Nose that he had enough of hispitaa life. and accordingly and while unobserved, he made his way out of the hospital and travelled through the surrounding country west of the city until he came to the Little river. Not waiting to look for bridge. Nose plunged into the chill water and made his way to the other side, eventually reaching the bunk house and entering without ceremony
 He was chilled to the bone and his teeth clattered as he pushed his way ters Of his fellow workers. Clad only in nightshfrt he was more like an apparition than a real human being and it was on this. basis, under the dim lights. thatshis friends appraised him-as a visitor from another world, their old friend ose who must have died at the hospital and had come back to haunt them.
 At this point Johnnie R. Hicks, Vir- ginia also, sah, takes up the story. Hicks is the colored boss in charge of the workers.
 "Huh!" said Hicks Friday, when asked about the matter. Course I was scared: I was just as scared as I ever can be in this world. I heard the door open and ah saw Nose, all dress In what look like a angels robe. My heart pound like so I thought it would sure break my old ribs. Round that burkhouse every man had his head tucked under the bed clothes and I could hear no word-just a few wfis- pers. After awhile aEs heard that ghost say something about ''hospitar' and ah got courage enough for just stick one eye from under the clothes. There was what used to look like Mose-but sure was doubtful about

that bein' him. I got a cupboErG in the bunkhouse and I thought I would get myself in there, and lock the door, but, I say to myself. what's the use- cause a ghost can go anywhere; so l stay right where I was. Then my courage come back little more and I spoke to Nose and found he wasn't no ghost at all, just friend Nose run away from the hospital in his night shirt. Golly but we was scared.
 After this all the boys come out from under the clothes and say some pretty strong things to Nose. he done scare 'em pretty bad you know-and then we put him in bed and fix him up good and warm. You ones know Nose say he heard nurse say some thin about dope and he just cleared right out. figuring that dope was for him. spec he never will go back less they done take mule for pull him up there.'' -=-.3
 Boss Hicks had a grand time laugh ing about the affair during the broad light of day-but he hesitated and be- came very serious again when it was suggested to him that it all happened on Friday, the thirteenth, and might be some evil omen.
 You go way. chile." he said.

Prof. HerfZOg Praises
 This Perfect. Laxative
Dr. Cald,oeIl's Syrup Pepsin o,1 Ideal Remedy for
 E Constipation.

In every family there is more or less occasion for a laxative remedy. It is to meet this need that Dr. Caldwell s Syrup Pepsin is prepared, and that this combination of simple Laxative herbs with pepsin fulfills it's purpose is proven by it's place in thousands of American homes.
 Prof. F. J. c. Hertzog. the well known lingunst, 2341 North Orianna St., Philadelphia, Pa, wrote to Dr. Caldwell that he has used Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin in his household with excellent results and that he and his family consider 1t indeed a friend in need. and always keep a bottle of it on hand.
 Constipation is the direct cause of much serious illness and is a condition that should never be neglected. Harsh cathartics and violent purgatives should never be employed to relieve constipation, because the very vio- lence of their action shocks the entire system. A mild laxative, such as Dr. Caldwell's Sprup Pepsin is far prefer able, being mild and gentle in its &C., tion, without gripping or other pain or discomfort; It's freedom from all opiate or narcotic drugs makes it an ideal remedy for children.

WHAT INDUSTRY NEEDS.
James o. Pagan of Wavesiy, Mass. Speaks Before Business Mems As sociation,

James o. Pagan, Waverly, Mass. representing the national industr rial conservation movement, addressed members of the Danielson Business Mems association, club members and others Friday evening at the rooms of the Bohemian club. The address was one of a series to be delivered in Con necticut by MT. Pagan. Following the address there was a social hour mad refreshments were served
 / In the course of his address MT. Pagan said:
 Does industry today need the sup port of public opinion and of fairer legislative treatment? It certainly does. Industry asks public opinion for fairer attitude of mind towards the business interests of the country, tow ards situations in which every year over go per cent. of its enterprises go to the bad, and less than 10 per cent. to the good, and towards the railroads. very large percentage of which are in the hands of receivers. Industry, I say asks from the public a fafrer so- cial and political attitude towards those who are doing the best they can to keep this kind of situation on it's feet and to prepare for rainy days" which visit them every once in a while. Furthermore, industry asks public opinion to make good business and decent treatment of the same popular.
