WHY YEAST POWDER SHOULD BE USED
Because IL is much more convenient than brew
ers' or hop yeast, produces better and more
nutritious food, and never fails of success. This
is particularly applicable to DO0ley's Yeas, Pow
der, as each package not only contains the full
weight as represented, but the contents are per-
tectly free from any injurious substances
Nothing enters into its composition but articles
that are healthy and nourishing, and the bread
prepared with ii Is such as can be eaten with
IMMUNITY by the most sensitive invalids. For
sale by grocers everywhere.

Troppmann, has been committed in the canton
OF Limours, Seine-e- Oise, almost at the gates
OF Paris. Within few months eight persons

apparently by the same hand. Two maiden
ladies were the victims the other day. After
knocking his victims senseless, the assassin cut
their throats until the head is nearly severed
from the body. No clew has vet been Obtained
which could put the police upon the trail of this
Wholesale murderer, but the best detectives of
Paris have gone out TO Rambouillet, and are
busliy engaged in working up the case.

JAMES NJ. LowELL's TRIAL FOR WIFE
MURDER.-At Lewiston the trial of James NJ
Lowell for the murder of his wife was resumed
Wednesday morning. The greater part of the
forenoon was taken up in the examination of
Mrs. SOphronis Blood, Mrs. Lowell's landlady
Mrs. Blood expressed a belief that the gold
cham found upon the skeleton, and that the sill k
dress produced in court, were the ones Mrs.
Lowell had on when she went to ride. She also
told how she saw Mr.. Lowell the next morning,
and was told by him that he brought Lizzie
home at 10 O'Clock the night before. She told
him she knew better, and he answered that she
(his wife) must have gone of with a circus fell
low. A while after he said he had hunted for
her, but had not found her. Some time later
she saw him again, and he said that his wife was
in Lawrence. Mrs. Blood showed much emo
ton while examining the chain and the dress,
and almost tainted. A sharp cross-examination
failed to alter the evidence materially.
Mrs. Frances A. Jepson testified to seeing and
saying "good evening" to Lowell and his wife
who she met riding out together about six
O'Clock on the evening preceding Mrs. Lowell Is
disappearance. Next day the witness asked the
prisoner where his wife was, and he replied,
"She has gone OFF with the circus" The testi-
mony for the prosecution has been mainly the

"A GOOD HAMMER

Twen,y-nine years ago. when David
Naydoe was roadside blacksmith at Nor
witch, New York, six carpenters game to
the village from the next country to WORK
upon new church, one OF whom. having
left his hammer behind, came to the black
smiths to get one made. there being none
in the village store. 80,
MAKE me a good ONE said the car
penter. las good one as you know
how"
But" said the young blacksmith. who
had already considered hammers, and had
arrived at some notion of what a hammer
ought to be, and had a proper contempt
for cheapness in all its forms, ''perhap'
you don't want to pay for as good one
as can make"
Eyes, do; l want good hammer.
And so David Maydoie made good
hammer, the best one probably that had
ever been made since Tubal Cain, and one
that perfectly satisfied the carpenter. The
next day the mans five companions came
each of them wanting just such a hammer
and when they were done the employer
ordered two more. Next the storekeepel
of the village got two dozen. which
were bought by New York tool merchant
who left a standing order for as many
such hammers as David Maydole could
make. And from that day TO this he has
gone on making hammers. until now he
has l15 men at work. He has never adj
yertised, he has never pushed, ne has new
er borrowed. He has never tried to com
pete with others in price. He has never
reduced a price because other men hac
done so. His only care has been TO max.
. perfect hammer, to make as many sucf
as people wanted, and no more, and tc
sell them at fair ice.-Parton.
