An Ideal Remedy
For Nursing Mothers
Compound of Simple Laxa-
tive Herbs Safe for Baby
and Mother.

Constipation is a condition that af-
fects the old, young and middle-ag
and most people at one time or another
need help in regulating the action of
the bowels. Harsh cathartics and pur-
gatives should not be employed to re-
lieve constipation. as their effect is only
temporary while they shock the system
unnecessarily.
remedy that can be used with per-
feet safety for the tiniest babe and that
is equally effective for the strongest
constitution is found in the combina-
ton of simple laxative herbs known as
Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Fepsin and sold
in drug stores everywhere for fifty
cents "a bottle. This is an ideal house
hold remedy and should be in every
family medicine chest.

LOOK With FAVOR
ON CUMM|NS BILL
National Guard Officers Be-

Adjutant General Crow is in receipt
of copies of the Cummins militia bill
introduced in congress, the contents of
which he views as of great Importance.
He has reviewed a number of the pro-
posed military measures and is in
olined to the belief now that the Cum

other measures that are introduced
later.
The Cummins bill provides the mi

the organized militia and the morgan
lied militia The organized militia is
to consist in times of peace of 100000
commissioned officers and enlisted men
between the ages of IS and Ga, to be
known as the state militia, but under
the direction of the war department.
The maximum war strength is to be
100000.
The organized militia is to be called
upon for duty in connection with the
regular army at any time. Its inspec-
ton is to be conducted by regular
army officers and its equipment is to
come from the war department, in
Guiding small arms and artillery. There
is annually appropriated $34,5oO,OoO for
the organized militia, $4,500,OOo of
which Is to go towards the equipment
Of the organized militia The balance

plays the title role. The picture will be
shown today and tomorrow, however.
The story contained in the film is an
unusual one. The sort of drama In
which the child brings together the
estranged parents Is not new, but when
the child is the means of separating
them in the last act, ending with the
death of the father, people will begin
to take notice. The action takes place
in England and che backgrounds used
by the Famous Players company are
especially appropriate. Miss Pauline
Frederick is said to be at her best in
this release and the cast used is one
which is up to the producing company's
standard.

Antiquity of the Senate.

The senate is historically much older
than the lower house, or house of rep
resentatives, as it Is called in our
country and time. In the remote time,
while as yet there was no such thing
as a science Of government, the tribe
was wont to look to its old men, On
account Of their wisdom and expert
ence, for advice in all matters per-
tanning to the tribe, and those old men
were the first senator's The word
senator comes from 'senes," meaning
old. AS civilization advanced and seat
ed government became fact the SEN
ate continued to be composed of the
old men, and when by and by the Sec
ond chamber, or council, was added the
senate continued to receive the larger
measure Of reverence and respect.

ANCIENTS HAD SHORTHAND
Hebrews Was Not Based on Pho
netics Like Ours

We are told in recent story, that
not only the Romans, but the ancient
Hebrews. possessed fine systems of
stenography, and that public men
took stenographers with them wher-
ever they went This is not true
in any strict sense, the New York
Mail states. The ancient Romans and
Hebrews had systems of shorthand,
but not all stenography. Their short
hand consisted of authorizations, the
use of letters for words, the introduce
ton of arbitrary systems, and that
kind of things. No system of phonet-
ic stenOgraphy, such as we have at the
present day, in which fluent character
represents a certain sound, and in &C
cOrdance with which the sounds Of hui
man speech can be transcribed as they
are uttered, was known to the an
clients. The shorthand system invent
ed by Giro, the secretary of Cicero,
is well known; it has no phonetic ba-
sis. Two amanuenses were neces-
sary to keep up with speaker, and
| there are even tales that Caesar kept
six amanuenses going at once. It is
certainly a long jump from that to the
handy girl of today, whose swift pen
Gil easily keeps up with a mans ut
terances.
| Few people at the present day have
any just or correct understanding of
phonetics. The average person con
fuses the names of letter of the al.
phabet with the sound which it is sup
posed to represent, fails to distinguish
between diphthongs like long "i' and
the simple vowel sounds, and in many
ways betrays the fact that he is quite
without a phonetic sense. The teach
ing Of stenography has spread g
knowledge Of phonetics, and in the
long run must produce much more
general realization Of the ridiculous
ness and Wastefulness of our present
system Of spelling the English Ian
| guage.

ART OF BEING ALONE.
Try Taking to the Woods and Being
Natural For Awhile.


The art of being alone is worth
cultivating. Unless you have really
tried it you have no idea how unusual
and refreshing it is. City life and even
modern country life are not conducive
to its practice. It is very different
from being lonesome and quite another
matter from being i'll. 1t is found at
it's full flower only in the woods, and
it's best development requires some adj
justment and practice
The first experience is apt to leave
one somewhat baffied if not frightened.
We live 50 much with other men and
with the evidences of their activity
that we hardly know how much is
ourselves and how much some one else.
In the WOOdS-and it need not be the
remote WildernesS-We can diveSt our
selves of all that is not really a part
Of US. We can learn how small-or
perhaps how large-We are. We can
soak up impressions With time to taste
| them and consider them. We can learn
| the true value of wind and clouds and
sun and shade. If we feel like it we
| can talk out loud to ourselves, and
| there will be no one to think US crazy
| We can sing and no one will tell us we
are off the tune. .
In short, we can be natural for once
| in our lives-free from the warpino
! effect of what other people think. That
| is surely an experience worth WHILE

acre timber tract in Walden. F. R..

From April 8 to Oct. 81, there were
shown in the ST. Johnsbury museum
GIT species of Towering plants and 40
of ferns, found within five miles of
the museum, and 95 species of plants
sent from places further away. Moss
es and lichens are now being collected
there.
James Brown and Peter Roskin,
claiming Colorado as their residence,
and William Burke OF Bridgeport,
Conn.,, were arrested in the railroad
charge of breaking and entering the
store of George H. Wallace at East
Ryegate early Monday morning, Oct
80 The men were arraigned in mu-
nicipal court and placed under bonds
of $1,000 for appearance at the De
cember term of Caledonia county
court. The booty obtained in the
break consisted of 81 cents and some
cigars and cigarettes, but the case is
complicated from the fact that the
postoffice is located in the Wallace
store and the government may take
the matter up.
