Ask ‘your pharmacist to show you the formuls, plainly printed on these fifty-cent cases of Pape's Diapep- sin, then you will understand why dyspeptic troubles of all kinds must 80, and why it relieves sour, out-of- order stomachs or indigestion in five minutes. “Pape’s Diapepsin” is harm- less; tastes like candy, though each dose will digest and prepare for as- similation into the blood all the food you eat; besides, it makes you go to the table with a healthy appetite: but what will please you most, is that you will feel that your stomach and | intestines are clean and fresh, and you will not need to resort to laxa- tives or liver pills for biliousness cr constipation. This city will have many “Pape's Diapepsin” cranks, as some people will call them, but you will be en- thusiastic about this splendid stomach preparation, too, if you ever take it for indigestion, gases, heartburn, sourness, dyspepsia, or any stomach misery.

STONINGTON Manuel Maderio Reaches Home After Adventurous Trip in Ten-Foct Sharpie—Had to Live on Snow. Manuel Maderio, the Stonington fisherman who was adrift in his ten- toot sharpie and engaged in trawlin when the severe snowstorm set in last Wednesday morning, and who could not be located by his associate fisher- men in a motorboat, returned to his tome Saturday in his own motorboat that was operated by his brother. He was given an ovation by his fellow countrymen and the Internaticnal band ind received as he had never been re- ceived before by his wife and five children. Maderio was heard from by telegraph from Montauk Point Friday and immediately the rescuing craft went after him. There was no sail sharpie when he lost in the storm, and the frall craft drifted with the tide and finally beached, after a 2 raile cruise, on the east end of Gardi- Island. He landed Wednesday right, but as there was no one on the island he couid obtain no food and he subsisted upon enow. Driven by desperation, Maderio decided to take a chance on the water again in the hope of reaching habitation. He found a stick which he utilized as a mast, made a sail of his oilers and used his bailer as rudder. He set sail and, favored by wind that blew from the right course, he again put out to sea in the hope of attracting the attention of some vessel or landing some place where he could get food and inform his people of his whereabouts. He finally landed at Fort Pond, Long Island, a distance of six miles. Here he applied for and received food and | nourishment. He remained at Fort Pond Friday and Friday night, the kesper of the Montauk Point iight- house telegraphing Maderio's family of his safety. He was rescued Saturday morning and a few hours later w: among his friends in the borough. He is suffering considerably from hunger and exposure and it will be a few weeks before he will be able to con- tinue in his business as fisherman. Truant Officer Alert. Deputy Sheriff Willlam H. Casey truant officer for the town of Stoning- ton, was in the borough last week, i vestigating cases that had been re- ported of children of school age who did not attend school.
