more largely than any one else, and
taking upon himself all sorts Of res
possibilities. This is the kind of mar
who leads the world. Let him have
one success, and people will follow
him anywhere. Mr.. Hudson was for
two OF three years looked upon as hav-
ing the key to untold treasures. The
world will court rich men, but there is
one whom it will court still more, and
that is he who is supposed to be able
to make all men rich. This was Mr..
Hudson's position. People saw a
boundless extension of railway enter
prise and thought George Hudson was
to be the despotic ruler Of it. Every
thing was gradually but surely to be
brought under his influence. Hence
they went wild about him. The rich
est men in England subscribed EGO, 600
as tribute to him for his services to
the public, as If n colossal fortune were
not sufficient rccompense for his devo-
ton. When he was elected for Sun
derland, 1915, the event was Judged to
be Of such public interest that a spe-
cial train was sent to London with an
account of the proceedings, and tray
eled during part Of its journey at the
rate Of seyenty-fye miles an hour.
The events that produced his decline
and fall arc too well known. His own
private affairs were found to be mex
tricably involved with those Of thecom-
panies which he ruled, and legal pro-
ceedings, which endured for years, oy.
erthrew his credit and despoiled him
OF his wealth.

The Citadel of Life is in o state OF siege al
through the year, but Is never more closely in
vested than in mid. winter. The liver usually
somewhat torpid, and he.bOwels more or less con,
stlpated at this season, and dyspepsia often as
sumes its most aggravated form in cold and wet
weather. IN short, the sluggish system seems in,
clined to intermit or shirk Some Of its most i'm.

The spur required is IIOs!ctterS Stomach Ritters,

Gus and terrible enemy of human life is not dis
ease itself, but the weakness which affords 1t an
opportunity to gain q firm hold Of the vital Sys-
ten. Remember that stamina, vital energy-the
life principle, or whatever you may choose TO call
the resistant power which battles against the
causes of disease and death, is the grand safe
guard OF health. 1t Is The garrison Of the human

Mr.. Benefits Will.

CHASTITY Scenes nj a Gallows.

On Tuesday morning, June 4, within
the precincts of the gaol, the last dread
sentence of the law was carried out
upon the person convicted and con.
demned to death fo- the murder of an
elderly woman, named Aveline Littler,
near Wyndeyer, in March last.
Precisely at o'clock the wretched
criminal, attended by the Rev. Mr..
McAuclitfe, was led forth from his cell,
and quietly submitted himself to the
hands OF the two executioners, who at
once proceeded TO pinion him. The
prisoner was taken to the foot of the
gallows, and assembled the stairs with
out exhibiting any agitation. He raised
his hands twice, as If in supplication;
and, upon the cap being thrown over
his head and tied, the bolt was drawn.
A scene now occurred that will never
be forgotten by those who witnessed it.
When the body passed through the
drop, the spectators, of course, expected
to see it swing underneath, when the
extent OF the rope was reached but
what was their horror to see the trunk,
completely severed from the head fall
into the pit below, while the head was
left dangling in the noose-terrible and
CHASTITY sight. Death, of course, was
instantaneous. 1t is impossible to de
scribe the sensation which this shock
ing spectacle produced. Every one
present stood as if he were rooted to the
spot, and it was some time before most
of the onlookers could realize what
had actually occurred The blood now
ran in narrow stream from the head
suspended above, and, upon approach
ing the edge of the pit, the upper por.
ton of the body was seen to partially
raise itself in convulsive shudderings
two or three times before it ceased to
move, the blood pouring in streams
from the neck. The effect of the scene
was sickening in the extreme, but as
soon as possible the trunk and head
were put in coffin and removed. The
cause of the terrible catastrophe was
the want of any allowance on the part
of the executioners for the age and at.
tenuated frame of the convict. Far too
great fall was given, and though it
might be merciful, as a rapid and pain
