Liver and Bowels without weakening
them and it *.s perfectly f-ec froci
every objectionable substance.

Hrockman, ware returning t<> town from their
assessing appointment, Saturday afternoon,
their horse became frightened at the smoke or
a passing engine, or at something else, near
the railroad crossing on the Howard <iap
road two miles above town. Mr. Hrockman
Jumped from tlie buggy without receiving any
serious Injury. Ills face anil nose were ecratct eil
considerably. Mr. Kpton in his efforts to
check the horse was thrown violently over the
dashboard and his hoad struck the vehicle or
ground rendering hint unconscious for about
an hour. Several doctors soon were on hand
and after he recovered he was brought to his
home. Where he fell and lay for some time he
bled considerably. The greatest Injury seemed
to be In the head. About ten years ago Mr.
Kpton lost his arm In a thrasher. One year
ago, the first of January, his brother ln>la\\<
Thomas, was killed by his horse running away,
as he was coming to town to start out to as
slst in assessing property. Last Summer
Charlie Kpton had his arm broken by an unruly
horse. It looks as If some fatality, in con
nectlon with horses, attended the family. Hun'
day Mr. Kpton was apparently Improving,
with the appearance of recovery.
That Joyful Feeling.
With the exhilarating sense of renewed
health and strength and Internal cleanliness
which follows the use of Syrup of Flars, Is unknown
to the few who have not progressed beyond
the old time medicines and the cheap
substitute* sometimes offered but never acepted
by the well Informed.

?The Mount Lebanon Shakers have recently
perfected an Ingenious cure for dyapepsta.
Their Iilgestlvo Cordial C mists of a fed already
digested and a digester of foods happily
combined.
The Importance of this Invention will be
appreciated when we reallr.e what a proportion
of the c< nnuuntty are victims of some
form of stomach trouble. Thousands of pale,
thin people have little Inclination tp eat, and
what t/iey do eat causes them i aln and distress.
This Digestive Cordial of the 8ha*ers corrects
any stomach derangement at once. It
makes thin peoule plump. Everyone will be
greatly Interested to read the little book which
has been placed In the hands of druggists for
free distribution.

Another's Crime.
The foremost American novelist recently
won a #10.000 prize for the best
serial novel in a competition which
was open to all and in which many
famous writers participated. The story
was submitted anonymously and it
was not known till the prize was
awarded that Mr. Julian Hawthorne
was its author. This tends to confirm
the opinion long entertained by Mr.
Hawtliornu'b admirers that his great
popularity is due to the merit of his
works and not to family or literary
friendships.
The Spartan, will begin the publication
of '"Another's Crime," a very
thrilling detective story by Mr. Hawthorne.
It is equal in power and intense
feeliiig to his ten- thousand dollar story.
