If you feel yourself growing weak, your
strength failing, the natural functions of
the body becoming impaired, take warning
in time, your system needs Iron, which,
when combined with proper vegetable ex-
tracts, produces q tonic of rare medical eff
feet. Such remedy is Browns Iron Bit
tiers. Buy it of your druggist and do not
be persuaded to take substitute, for this
is the only remedy which gives permanent
strength 1t contains no alcohol, nor does
it blacken the teeth. It receives the uni
versal endorsement of clergymen, physici-
ans, druggists and all who have used it.

Distress After Eating,

the result Of Indigestion, will no longer be
experienced if half tablespoonful of Sim
mons Liver Regulator is taken after each
meal. 1t is such good digester, and so
mild and pleasant in its effects, that it is
used by many after a hearty meal to ensure
good digestion. The Regulator does not
nauseate or irritate the stomach, is pure
~ vegetable, and can be taken in any con-
dition of the system and, unlike any other
known medicine, when it's use is discontin-
ued, the system is not left constipated.

MIDNIGHT MEAL

with apparent relish and enjoyment. The
remnantst of the repast were found this
morning scattered about the floor and
counters, giving evidence that while they
were satisfying the inner" man they were
also busily engaged in exploring the prem
ises with a view of cracking" the safe.
The thieves, before entering the store,
had provided themselves with some tools,
adopted to the work of boring in iron,
from a neighboring blacksmith shop.
AS soon as they had finished eating they
commenced to bore into the safe door and
having made hole sufficiently large for
the purpose, they filed the aperture with
powder, closed the same with putty and
ignited the slow match. They had pre-
viously opened the door, and windows to
deaden the effect of the explosion, but the
discharge was even greater than they an
tieipated; for in spite of their precaution
the windows were shattered and the explo-
sion proved to be of very alarming
nature.
THE EXPLOSION
was of sufficient force to blow the safe
door about six feet from its usual abiding
place
The noise attracted the attention of the
occupants of the rooms above the store,
but the thieves possessed the requisite
nerve and skill to take all the ready money
and drafts from the money drawer, and
make themselves scarce before the inmates
of the building could reach the rear part
of the store and ascertain what had been
accomplished.
1t is stated that large portion of the
money was in silver, but the thieves prov
ed equal to the emergency, as they appro
priated wooden bucket and proceeded to
dump the money into this receptacle and
walk away with it before the crime became
generally known.
will reach about $2. 100, as it is fully ex-
pected that the drafts can be made value
less by the proper notification.
1t is stated by Mr.. Miller, one
of the partners, that the safe con-
contained in the neighborhood of $1,000
in ready money, while drafts and other ar
ticleg of value will increase that amount
to an even $780, The exact amount of
money taken could not be ascertained dur
ing this morning, as more or less excite
ment existed on account of the robbery,
but the above mentioned figures are sup
posed to cover the actual loss, while
more careful examination of the books
may result in decreasing the amount.
SUSPICION.
The thieves probably gained an idea of
