the fall of five cents, even if it is
small. ,

Take Plenty of Time to Eat.
There is a saying that "Rapid eat
ing is slow suicide." If you have
formed thejiabit of eating too rapidly
you are most likely suffering from
indigestion or constipation, which will
result eventually in serious illness un
less corrected. Digestion begins in
the mouth. Food should be ' thor
oughly mastidcated and insalivated.
Then when you have a fullness of the
stomach or feel dull and stupid after
eating, take one of Chamberlain's
Tablets. Many severe cases of stom
ach trouble and constipation have
been cured by the use Of these tab
lets. They are easy to take and
most agreeable in effect. For sale
by all dialers.
Kennedy In Race With Own Auto.
B. E. Kennedy, formerly of Baker
and well known here, figured in a lit
tle comedy staged unintentionally by
himself in Portland the other day.
The following story from the Port
"ar d iAgram tells all about it:-' '
n i ipromptu , race was staged
: el-. en C E. Kennedy and his own
tuU. . :.ile, the race bein gterininated
. , . fl'y fence. Kennedy, since
n:uz.m Albee's campaign has lost
the management of his srasoUne cart
his mind being on other things, prob-
aDiy. .
Kennedy backed his car out of his
garage, and as there was an incline
he threw in the reverse eear and f isr-
nred that the momentum of the run
for a few feet would turn over the
engine and ignite . the spark. This
would save him the trouble of crank.
ing. ' It is a lazy man's device. But'
the car did not back up enough, and
Kennedy, forgetting to shift the gear
to neutral, slowly clambered out of
the car .and proceeded to crank 'er
up. The result was highly satisfac
tory.''' -i-:;, !
"With a tremble and a throb the
bio. automobile began to scuttle back
ward like a crawfish, and it began
going fast, too.' In his excitement
Kennedy tried to "whoa" the machine J
but the car refused to Whoa, not be-'i
ing that kind of horsepower. On-
ward backed the car, gathering speed. i
Kennedy used to be a very active man
but since be received
visit-: from . Old - Man Rheumatism he'
navigates slowly.. Came then a lum
bering pursuit by Kennedy after his
runaway car.' Merily the motor avoid
ed him, steadily increasing in distance
for B. Elmer is not fleet of foot - On
sped the car, backing across the side
walk and onto a vacant lot Crush
ing its way through tall grass, which
onlv entaneled the lees of the own
er, the car kept going until it landed
with a thump against a Xence, wnicn
detained the machine until Kennedy
arrived panting and out of breath."
