MT. WisIer Cured of Indigestion.

Some time in 1909 when I had an attack of indigestion and everything looked gloomy to me, received free sample of Chamberlain's Tablets by mail. I gave them a trial and they were such a help to me that bought a package, and I can truthfully say that have not had similar attack since" writes Wm. B. Wisler, Douglassvil,e, Pa.

A very bold and successful bur glary took place last night when the Bradshaw Clothing Go. of 1885 East Main street, was broken into and a large part of the stock was taken away. Mir. Bradshaw, who lives in the West End. closed the store about g o'clock last night and when he opened this morning everything look ed all right from the outside. When he went inside he found that most of his stock had been stolen. The goods had been taken from the boxes, which were left so as to appear all right from the front.
 An examination showed that a rear window had been forced and the burglars, who must have been small. entered beneath the bars which did not reach down to the sill. The goods taken consist of mems pants, shirts, sweaters, underwear, socks, overal1s and shop aprons. Foot prints in the wet ground of the back yard show that the goods were taken over the rear fence to Beach street and from the amount of goods taken an automobile or truck must have been used Neighbors say they heard noises and that a dog parked loudly for a long time but on account of the storm they did not investigate. MT. Bradshaw notified the police and they are trying to discover the bur glars.

Dr. Sraylxo w15Id told in an interview Eoday of present existing conditions in Poland, of what the people in that country are striving for, and of the very bright future that is in store for Bhae unfortunate little country, which 1t seems, has suffered more during this war than any other countTy on the other side of the continent.
 Barren and desolate, stripped of every civilized commodity in food, clothing, metal, and occupation, the country is now Tecuperaung from it's F(hare of sorrow inflicted during the war. HoVered over by Bo1shevism on one side and Prussiandsrn on the other the people hope that Dantzig, the only port, will be given them, as a result of the Peace Conference, so ahst they may open direct communi- cation with the United States and i'm port all necessities for the re-estab- 3ishnent of a new country.
 All reports of pogroms in Poland are denied by pr. Smykowski and he said that during his seven weeks stay sn that country he witnessed only two arrests when men were taken over by ths Jaw for serious offences. Pad srewsli is greatly admired by the people and he has proven himself a great leader and statesman, he re- ports. The Diet, or cabinet, is com posed of various parties, the National Demo ocratic party leading.

there are 10000 children, ran ging in ages from one to IS and Is. It takes a great deal for their maintenance, but there is no clothing, food or any thing else to buy in that country. Shoes cost as much as $60 and S7O a pair because there is a great scare ity of leather. Since the average per son in Poland now earns about that much money a month, it can easily be seen that shoes are a great lux ury. They solve the problem by wearing wooden shoes, as people us ed to in the ancient times. Linen, bed sheets, shirts, gowns for the nurses. soap, coal, wood, medicines, food and other articles are extinct
 Since the people have funds with which to buy these things, Dr. STny- lpowsLd stated that 1t would be a most splendid opportunity for the United States to set her factories busy sup plying Poland with these necessities. The sentiment for this country is very great and everywhere the people de- clare their admiration for President Wilson and the American people.
 Fully 15O eoO cases of fever hava been reported during the last week of March in Poland and the sickness Is spreading rapidly killing people every day by the thousands. Wherever one turns, he sees a procession of fuucr- als. The illness cannot be checked, because there are no medicines or nourishing foods.
 About AT per cent of the children are i'll with tuberculosis and eye dis eases, and die at a very high rate. The American nurses and Red Cross doctors are doing a heavenly work there, said pr. SInyl1owski. The American doctors are coping with the epidemics and are doing their best to check the spreading sickness.
 Mme. Paderewski is now called the little mother of Poland" She has founded the White Cross hospital for soldiers and recruits and is devottng g her time in caring for the sick and poor.
 The country Is also out of all kinds of metals, except iron and tin. Dur ing the stay of the Germans in that country, all metals were taken away.
