A Woman's Discovery.

Another wonderful discovery has
been made and that too by a lady in
in this country. Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and for seven years
she withstood its severest test, but
her vital organs we're undetermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed necessarily and
could not sleep. She bought Of US a
bottle of DR.. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption and was SO much re-
lieved on taking first dose that she
slept all night and with one bottle has
been miraculously cured. Her name
is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus writes

DOVER, Del, Feb. 15.-In the in
terview to-day Captain Sam Brown,
the turf man, said that as soon
as the Louisville Jockey Club demand
ed an explanation he would tell all he
knew about the crooked Kentucky
derby referred TO. In his conversation
with Post reporter yesterday, said he:
sit was the derby of 1882. As stated
before, my information came from two
well-knoWn turf authorities. One
of my informants was Cap
tain William Cottrill who died
about year ago, but the other, a
Louisville pool seller, Jim Burt. is still
alive. In the derby Runnimede was
an immense favorfte, but Apollo,
never q fast one, came in first with
Runnimede not far behind. The
claim that the latter was out of shape
win hardly pass muster for in the
Clark stakes q few days later he made

Two VVays-ChOOse which.

There are two usual ways of doing
what nature sometimes does incom-
pletely, namely, to relieve the bowels.
One is to swallow drastic purgative
which evacuates profusely, abruptly
ard with pain, the other is to take
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the effect
of which is not violent, but sufficiently
thorough, and which does not grippe the
intestines. If the first is selected, the
person employing it need not expect
permanent benefit, and he cannot hope
to escape the facilitating reaction
which leaves the organs as bad or worse
off than before. If, on the other hand,
he resorts to the Bitters, he can rely
upon the restoration of a regular habit
of body, consequent upon a renewal of
healthful tone in the intestinal ca
nal. Besides BEAUTIFULLY relaxing the
bowels, the Bitters arouses dormant
liver, imparts a beneficial impetus to
the action of the kidneys, and counter
acts the early twinges of rheumatism,
tendency to govt, and malaria in all
its forms.

here ever since with the excep-
ton of the time he was in the

genial man and one who is always in
for anything to benefit the city.
Last spring he was elected mayor of
Emporia by handsome majority.
His business, the hardware, agri-

chinery business, is one of the largest
IN the city and was started by Mr..

ment, and is agent for q large list of
different machines. You can rely on
it that anything you may desire in this
line can be had of him on as good terms
