Mrs. b. O. Tufncll, writing in ref

may be of interest to you TO know that
Eruecs is extraordinarily little ching
cd since the war. We were most agree
ably surprised to find our things left
behind intact and only one case had
been opened The hotel was still well
run and comfortable, and the food was
good, only the pre-war prices had
changed for the worsol The beautiful
old city looked much the same as be-
fore. The carlton IS still peallng in
the bclcry and few of the public build
Ings haze suffered. The port has been
greatly altered. ana there the signs Of
war are very evident, not only in tho
huge works started by The enemy. but
in the cffectual destruction Of them by
our alrmen. The shops are open, and
the life OF Bruges goes ON as II did.

How Much Is a Man Worth

A verdict for $4,000 was awarded
the widow OF Fred S. Plat, former
clerk of the federal court, in her suit
against the Boston & Maine, recently
tried in district court at Windsor. An
other big damage suit, with claim Of
100000, has been brought in the
same court by the widow Of former
Governor G. H. Prouty against the
Canadian Pacific and will be tried at
Newp0rt, beginning July 3. To the
lay ofSthe mind there IS something in
congrUous in awarding very heavy
damages when persons rich or well-to
do are killed by RAILROADS and relative
ly small damages IN the ease off, Per
son Of limited means One would say
offhanh that life was a life, as
valued III one case as the other, and
should be compensated for ON an
equal basis, or perhaps some might
estimate q poor man as more valu-
able to his dependents, II he were
their sole support, than rich man,
whose family were abundantly pro-
yided with means and able to get en-
financially without him. The court!>
however have adopted the principle
yof assessing q PERSONS valuation in
such cases according to his earning
capacity, present and prospective, of
which his dependents are deprived
when he is removed from life
through fault Of the common carrier.
This means generally that Q man Of
property is appraised higher than
one Of hess earning cubacity II does
not seem quite right, in all cases, and
these big yerdicts spread the current
belief that law somehow fayors the
rich instead Of the poor. The aggre-
gate OF personal damage expenditures
nowadays forms a very considerable
item in the outgo Of the heavily bar
~dened railway companicc. Randolph

 For the past five years my wife has suffered from an aggravated stomach disorder. Even got so bad that in 20 minutes after drinking a glass of sweet milk she would vomit it up. Her stomach was so weak that she did not dare to eat many things she wanted, for it always meant pain, gas and collie afterward.
 She was badly constipated and had taken many different medicines She got so bad that an aneama was necessary for relief. It was heart rending to see how she suffered. She frequently became dizzy. had severe headaches and was quite nervous and her sleep was badly broken.
 The first bottle of Dreco gave her great relief. and since she has fin ished the second bottle it is amazing to see what a change has taken place in her. The constipation is overcome entirely. never has a headache nor dizzy spell; eats anything she craves and nothing disagrees with her; sits down to the table and eats anything she likes, and it never hurts her at all Really.
