what Constitutes a Family Medicine?

A preparation which is adapted to the
relief and cure of ailments to which
members of a household are most sub
iect, and which is not only alleged to do
this, but has long and unfailingly proved
its ability to do it, assuredly deserves
the title of a reliable Family Medicine.
Among time-honored preparations,
which experience and the sanction Of
the medical profession indicate as de-
serving of popular regard and conf
dence, is Hostetters Stomach Bitters, a
medicine adapted to the eradication of
dyspepsia, constipation and biliousness,
the three most frequently occurring all
ments that veX mankind. Derived from
a botanic parentage, it is efficient as we'll
as pure and wholesome. 1t relieves
nervous disquietude and inactivity of
the kidneys, and counteracts tendency
to rheumatism. For renewing tagging
strength and imparting appetite it a
be implicitly relied upon. Fever and
ague, rheumatism and debility are
reme1ied by it.,

tally SHOOTS q Customer.
Z ]. w. Beckstrom, young farmer from Oak
land, this state, arrived in this city Monday
evening bound for southwestern Kansas on a
prospecting tour. Thinking a revolver
wouldn't be a bad piece of luggage TO carry
with him to the southwest border, he stepped
into Nissen, Afford & Co.'S hardware store,
at s12 North Sixteenth street, and asked to be
shown some runs. George c.. Nissen, one
of the proprietors, and a mar totally un.
familiar with firearms, by the way, waited
upon him. He took down an improved
Harrington & Richardson self-acting,
3S-calibre revolver and undertook
to show him how it worked. In doing this he
foolishly inserted a cartridge in one of the
cylinders to show HIM how the extractor
worked. Then he closed the barrel and be-
gan to snap the riggcr. The third time he
snapped it the chamber holding the shell was
reached, and as he had idiOtically pointed the
gun at his prospective purchaser, of course
he was struck by the bullet. 1t went in a
little below the groin, and, following the long
bone OF the leg around, lodged a few inches
above the knee behind. Beckstrom fell
TO the floor in a faint, and the hor-
rified proprietor and his attaches gathered
around the PROSTATE man thinking he was
dead. He partly revived, however, and after
administering restoratives the patrol was
called and the wounded man., as well as
Mr.. Sissen, was taken to the station. DIR.
Ralph was Immediately summoned, and 10
eating the ball, cut il out, being compelled to
make an iucision an inch in depth.
The wound was then carefully
dressed and the patient seems
to be getting along finely and will in time,
recover, should blood poisoning not set in.
Beckstrom, himself, says the affair was
purely accidental, and the above account is
taken from his narrative thereof. Nissep,
however, asserts that the gun went off while
he was closing it, but he was so Mortified and
confused that he probably does not know
just how it occurred. Bcckstrom's' story Is
evidently correct,
