Some sort of moral should be cleaned
from the following case, though it will be
pointed differently as the sympathies are
enlisted for the plaintiff or defendant. A
young lady, Miss Watson, laid the dam
ages of broken heart at e500, for which
sum she brought an action against young
fellow named Kirkland. In defense of the
charge the latter put in as evidence let
ter he had received from the plaintiff in
which she stated "you must choose be-
tween me and cigar" Kirkland chose
the latter, and the engagement being
broken off in consequence, Miss Watson in
dicted her quondam Sweetheart for trifing
with her affections. 1t is to be presumed
that the alternative which the young lady
offered her sweetheart was not made in
earnest, as else he could not have been
guilty of pertidy in choosing the lesser of
the two evils presented TO him. The
Judge took very unromantic view of the
case, and holding that the defendant was
quite justified in taking the young lady at
her word, non-suited the latter and allowed
the smoker his costs.

DESIRABLE BUILDING LOTS,

TN VIEW OF THE INCREASED PRICE OF

come to the conclusion that lots will have to be

OF men of moderate means. Acting upon this
we recently subdivided that beautiful lot on the

His Business Booming.

Probably no one thing has caused such general revival of trade at W. H. Camps drug store as their giving away to their customers of so many free trial bottles of Dr Kings New Discovery for Consumption. Their trade is simply enormous in this very valuable article from the fact that it always cures and never disappoints. Coughs, colds, asthma, bronchitis, croup, and all throat and lung diseases quickly cured. You can test it before buying by getting a trial bottle free, large size $1. Every bottle warranted.

WROUGH ON RATS"

INview of the fact that SO many persons
on Rats" route to the happy hunting
grounds it is marvel that our law
makers do not include this article in the
list of poisonous drugs whose sale is
prohibited except under the strictest
regulation. Rough on Rats is rapid
" rising to the station Of Lord High
EXecutioner in this country, and its
growing popularity as a destroyer OF
human life is probably due to the fact
that it is more easily obtained than any
other poison. The law has placed such
restriction upon the sale of arsenic,
strychnine and the old time favor
tie death-deallng drugs that it is
next to impossible to obtain them.
except for perfectly legitimate use. Yet
here is a compound which was invented
for the useful purpose of Riding the
world of rats, that has miscarried in its
uses. The rats are not diminishing to
any pereeptible extent, but the human
race is being depleted by it right along
Scarcely day that we do not read ac-
counts of people dying from ''RoUgh on
Rats" either administered by their own
hands or by the hands of some enemy.
| 1t seems to be the favorite method en-
ployed by jealous lovers TO get rid OF
| their rivals. and it has become the sine
quo non with weak-minded women
who have been disappointed i'll
love. When a distr ssed female
feels that she prefers to fly to ills that
she knows not of, than to endure the
sof wounded heart. all she has to
| do is to walk around the corner to a
| drug store and lay i'll her supply OF
Rough on Rats" 1t is the easiest
thing in the world to get it-no more
| trouble than to buy a bottle of per
| fumery and no more cost. The druggist
keeps it for sale, and it is not his bust
ness to inquire into the business OF
every customer who patronizes him.
| There is nothing in the law 10 prohibit
him from selling Rough Oh Rats" and
assuming that the purchaser wants it &c
kill rats, he sells it without questioning
the object of the purchase. Consider
ing the deadly quality of this compound
ard the frequency with which it is used
for the destruction of human life, we
insist that it is time for the lawmaking
power to put it under the ban.
