New England Youngsters Raised
Hawks From Eggs and Collected
Remunerative Bounty.

Freetown, Mass, will break long
standing custom this year and pay no
bounty on the hawk. After a long
and heated session of the town fathers
at Assonet it was unanimously agreed
that the debit side of Freetown budget
had been taken too heavily by this item
when Moderator Nichols disclosed the
leak in the towns financial condition.

carried them home, put them under
setting hens and Matched them out,
and thus raised numerous young hawks
at no cost whatever. Then the boys
clipped their wings to keep them home,
and when they had grown full size
killed them, took them to the town
office and obtained their bounties."

An acid-stomach cannot digest food
properly. Instead, the food sours and
ferments and, passing into the intes-
tines, becomes a breeding place for
countless millions of deadly germs
toxic poisons they are called. These
poisons are absorbed into the system
and cause untold misery. So, you see,
it is Just acid-stomach, nothing else
that makes so many people weak, list
less and unfit; saps their strength and
energy; robs them of their vigOr and
vitality. Biliousness, bad liver, nerv-
BUSINESS, binding, splitting headaches,
rheumatism, lumbagO, sciatica-these
and many other still more serious all
ments often are traced to the COM
mon source-an acid-stomach.

BY THE PUBLICITY METHOD
Strenuous Tactics That Resulted ir
Restoring Family to Its Normal
Happy Quota.

A mother of four became exceedingly
wroth the other day with the father
of the quartette. They Quarreled bit
terly over a matter usually classed as
nonessential, and she, forthwith, pack
ed up bag and baggage and went back
to her childhood home-in the next
block but one.
The father stayed at home with the
children all the morning and managed
to find something for their MONDAY
meal, but in the afternoon things be-
gan to happen. The quartette was or
ganized into a band, and very noisy
one at that. With tin horns, dish
pans and combs they paraded up and
down the blocks between their home
and the grandmother's, and in between
times the oldest boy, aged ten, led the
shrill refrain, to which they marched :
left, right. Left, right, left. Left
my home and four little children. Left
right. Left, right, left. Left my home
and four little children"
It worked. By nightfall the fam
ily's quota was again full half dozen.

ToIuoI Output.

To give an approximate idea of the
scope of this industry, one need only
compare the small output Of pure
toluol in 1912 and 1913, for which
years it was approximately 100000 gal
Ions with the estimated output for the
year just past (191S), during which
period it is hoped that the output will
have exceeded 2O,O0O,O00 gallons. Prac-
tically all Of this increase has been
possible because Of the recovery of
toluol from coke-oven gas and city
supplies.

United States department of labor, it
is "the industrialization of domestic

Cooks and housemaids, having. es-
