ister of the Methodist Protestant Church
who resides with his sfamily here, has been
missing his sweet corn and was at

just as soon as the corn got ripe this

again, and the parson and his wife set
out to trap the intruders They stationed
themselves at convenient spots so they
could watch the corn without being seen.
and after several days we're rewarded
by seeing their two pet cats climb up the
stalks and pull the best ears Of corn they
could find The cats would then drop to
the earth, ,husk the corn, and cat with
apparent great relish.

cARTRIDE IN COAL.

Rutland Woman Quite Badly Hurt
After Putting Fuel into Stove. g..
Rutland, June l6.--Mrs. Mary Avery
of this city, widow and mother of five
children all living at home, is confined
to her bed with bullet in her chest
as a result Of a peculiar accident. Mrs.
Avery had put some coal into her
kitchen stove and was standing over
il, cooking. when there was a loud re-
port and she felt a sharp sting in her
breast. Investigation showed that a
cartridge had gotten into the fuel and
was put into the stove unintentionally.
No one in the house had any firearms
so the cartridge was probably in the
coal when il was bought. The bullet
has been located by an X-ray aPpar-
atus but IL has not vet been removed
The wound is serious but IL is expect
ed that Mrs. Avery viii recover.

st. Adams, June l6.-An unsuccess'
full attempt was made Monday night
about midnight by lone robber to
break into the Kingman Street office
of the American Express company by
gaining entrance through one of the
rear windows.
The thief had made a hole in the
screen in front of the window and had
managed. to raise the window itself
By raising the window, however, a
draft was made, which caused the cur
tain on the window to flap. The noise
awoke one of the road agents of the
company, who was sleeping above the
Office. The agent got out of bed and
looking down saw the man at work
and at once notified the police. Patrol
man Wry responded, but instead OF
going to the back door, ii is said, went
to the front door. The robber evident
ly became alarmed and made his es-
cape.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James II. Allen suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and unable
to work.
He finally decided after years Of cease-
less study, that no one can be free from
rheumatism until the accumulated impure
ties, commonly called uric acid deposits. wers
dissolved In the Joints and muscles and
expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted physi-
clans, made experiments and finally com.
pounded prescription that quickly ana
completely banished every sign and symp-
tom of rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery TO others WHO
took IL. with what might be called marvel
Gus success. After years Of urging he de-
rided 10 let sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the newspapers. Red
Cross Pharmacy has been appointed agent Tor
Allenrhu in this vicinity with the under
standing that he will freely return the pur.
chase money on the first two bottles 70 All
