br the White Caps.

LEAvESwoRTH, June 26.-[Special. The
first repetition of White Capism in our county
since July, 1888, occurred near this place last
night Pete Cresgrif and wife were taken out
and whipped by a band of upward of sixty
men. These sane parties last fall or winter
were put out of a shanty, their furniture re-
moved and the shanty destroyed by fire. Ii
appears that the latest o1ense is leading or
rather driving their touryear old daughter to the
same sin which the mother has always fol-
lowed. The child was forced to accept the
embraces of a patron who showed preference
for her. There are less comments publicly
made of the affair than if horse had been
whipped and the SENTINEL correspondent has
heard nothing but they deserved more than
they got" They are of the lowest depths, and
yet their habitation is visited largely by drum
mers from the cities and by many young men

Indigestion

is not only distressing complaint, Of
L itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumersble
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockwsy
Centre, Mich.:-
oliver complaint and indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years 1 suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength TO drag myself about. All
kinds OF food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested az
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that took seemed 10 do
any permanent good until commenced
the use of Ayers SarSaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing 10 take the Sarsspa-
rilla could see an Improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with IL came the ability TO digest
all the food taken, my strength i'm
proved each day, and after a few
months of faithful attention to your
directions. 1 found myself a well
woman, able to attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me q
new lease Of life"
