Last Sunday morning a party of four consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Leon Annis, Val Mott and Mrs. Mott took a drive across the big bog, or at least a portion of it, looking for blackber ries and prospecting for cranberries. They halted about o'clock where formerly a lumber and hunting- camp stood but which was mysteriously burned earlier in the summer. From this point they started out with empty pails and great expectations. After a tramp of two or three hours they re turned to the wagon. Their pails were not empty, but breakfast was some thing which had long since been for gotten. A fire was started in the cook stove which was still standing where the camp had been, coffee was made, meat fried and dinner spread in the shade of the pines. They ate until tbp sun began to shine on the table and this made it necessary to quit eating or move the table. They wisely chose the former as there was another trip to be undertaken, in the afternoon. This trip was out across the bog towards the lakes where cranberries ought to grow. Of course it is too early in the season yet to pick cran berries, so they did not gather many of them, and after another long tramp they returned again to the wagon for the homeward ride, wiser at least than when they started out in the morning. Excellent Health Advice. Mrs. M. M. Davison of No. 379 Giffcrd ave., San Jose, Cal., says: "The worth of Electric Bitters as a general family remedy, for headache, biliousness and torpor of the liver and bowels is so pronounced that I am prompted to say a word in its favor, for the benefit of those seeking relief from such afflictions. There is more health for the digestive organs in a bottle of Electric Bitters than in any other remedy I know of." Sold under guarantee at C. A. Jack's drug store. 50c.
