Easily Overcomes Stomach Trouble and Rheumatism with
 New Treatment

Everybody in railroad circles knows
 R. Baum, the popular and highly re- spected employe of the New Haven
 Road, who has worked for them 16
 years. His host of friends will all be
 biased to learn that he has finally
 discovered a medicine that brought him permanent and complete relief from a combination of stomach 'trou- ble and rheumatism. Here is his own statement for the benefit of hundreds of others who may be afflicted as he was:
 My stomach has been bad now for three years, giving me no end of trou- ble. It made me numb all over at times and must have developed into some sort of rheumatism because of pain and discomfort. I was nervous and my stomach was continually forming acid and gas no matter what I ate. Worst of all I couldn't sleep and woke up in the morning tired out All these things together made me weak, irritable and good for noth- ing most of the time. After seeing with my own eyes what your Wilderb medicine has done for a lot of people I gave it a trial. A couple of bottles worked wonders for me and I am glad to recommend it publicly. I can eat heartily and it seems to do me

 Why'd Hughes veto the two-cent car bill?" asked a rude voice, as Miss Annie Peck, noted mountain climber, began to tell why she'd vote for him, if she could. Miss Peck admitted it was too steep for her, and E. P. White, Buffalo Progressive, came to the res- cue. But the questioner wanted the lady to tell him, and when last seen was rounding the corner in the grasp of policemen.

orates), the Good Roads law, the Smith-Lever Agriculture Act and the Child Labor Act. The pamphlet con- unues: 'The list of President Will sons achievements is long; the time in which he wrought them was brief, but there is still work to be done. After many distressing years, after years of trusting and being disap- pointed, we have found a man who still will do it-who has done it. and who is still laboring at the work yet to be accomplished.
 Under President Wilson, business has been emancipated from panics; the farmer from chaotic conditions; the workers of ,the nation from ad- verse conditions which have existed for generations"
 Representative business men of the nation are already well informed as to the purpose of the organization, and they are voluntarily enrolling as mem- bers, regardless of former party aff1l- iations. and solely because they have proved by their own experiences that the economic administration of the President has been almost wholly re- sponsibfe for the business and f1nan- cial condition of America today, and it is internationally admitted that, in these respects, this nation is now in a class alone.

 'The first effect of the railroad efght-hour law was the fall of prices for food and other immediate neces- saries of life in and about the leading cities of the country, some prices dropping instantly 25 to 50 per cent :.

LOCAL IRONWORKER

Mir. J. A. Welch of A Madison Avenue Does Not Hesitate to IndOrSe LaX-a-TOne as the
 Eighth Wonder of the World

MT. Welch called on the Lax-a-Tone man at Harttgan's Drug Store, 81 Fairfield avenue, near Main street, and said that he was willing to come for ward and say good word for Lax-a- Tone as it was deserving of all the praise that you could give it. Mr. Welch is a we'll known ironworke1o of this city and enjoys the respect of his many friends and 1t is pleasure to publish such testimonials as this one as 1t cannot help and will convince the most skeptica1 of persons that IAx-a-Tone has merit, and will de- liver the goods
 MT. Welch says: Have had stom- ach trouble all my life with a bad case of constipation. I used to have b1otches and pimp1es all over my face and it is needless to say that I have tried many things. can honestly and truthfu11y say that Lax-a-Tone is the very first remedy that gave me re- suits and this remedy has, and I am more than pleased as it has \surely cleared me of all my troubles and | can also add that my appetite has i'm proved and further than that can eat anything without distress and enjoy it.''

 We made Melville Bay, but there was no relief and I have told you of the struggle that ended in our put ting into Knud Rasmussen's station at North Star Bay. ..
 It's a queer country unused the engineer. And queerer people are they who inhabit 1t. I had a good chance te study them at close range while we were at Parker Snow Bay from Oct. 1 ,191e, to July 29, 1916.
 A Hospitable People.
 "They were exceedingly hospitable to us while we were marooned at the bay and we were very glad to have the women to do our sewing. Indeed, think they treated us much better than most white men of the of the past have treated them.
 Through interpreters they told us of their habits and customs and their associations with white men. Ootah one of the Eskimos. who went with Peary on the dash for the pole, was there and we also met several of Dr. Cooks Eskimos.
 There are only about 250 of them in northern Greenland and there is no semblance of government. The best hunter usually assumes the sta- tus of head man. The girl who is the best sewer generally makes the best match and the men choose their wives by going from hut to hut until they find the best sewer available.
 The marriage ceremony is unknown The girl simply follows her chooser to his hut. If she is lazy and ineffi- cient-a poor sewer-she is fired out without any hesitation. They mar ry young, as early as IA, but their do not seem to average high CT than three to five. Liquor is un- known, but the tobacco habit has been learned from the white men. There is no money; hence, no com mercial disputes. An Eskimo will settle a grudge by shooting a neigh Dor and quite philosophically awaits his own turn if the dead mans friends want revenge.
 ''The object of the MacMillan expe? dition was attained,'t concluded Mr. Cotton. That was to definitely set tie whether, Crocker Land existed in the exact locality where Peary believ- ed he saw it. MacMillan failed to find it. Beyond all doubt, however, when he returns next year the scien- tific world will be far richer in its of life and conditions in the Arctic than. it has after the ex- ploring of any other man."

East Lyme. Conn.,, Oct. 4.-George Clark. of New Haven, employed as freight conductor by the New York. New Haven & Hartford railroad, was instantly killed about 8 o'clock this morning at this place by the midnight express out of New York bound to Boston. .
 Clark had fixed a switch to side his train to allow the midnight to pass and had stepped on the eastbound track where he was struck by the ex- press. No one witnessed the accident and the freight train had proceeded some distance before the man was missed.
 The train returned and the mangled remains of the man were found. Three trains had passed over the body before it was discovered.
