A Life Made Miserable

By dyspepsia is hardly worth the liv-
ing. A capricious appetite, heart
burn, puZzling nervous symptoms,
increased action of the heart after eat
ing, sinking in the abdomen between
meals, and fiatulence after, are among
the successive indicia of this farass-
ing complaint. Two things only ale
needtul for it's removal. A resort to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and per-
sistence in it's use. These remedial
measures being adopted, cure is
certain. Taken Immediately before or
after meals, this great stOmachic pro-
notes secretion of the gastric juice
the natural solvent of the food. The
nervous and bilious symptoms conse-
quent upon chronic indigestion disap-
pear as the complaint gradually yields
to the corrective and invigorating ir-
fiuence of the Bitters. Appetite re-
turns, sleep becomes more refreshing
and as a sequence the body is eff
GENTLY nourished, muscular power in
creases and the mind grows sanguine.
Use the Bitters for chills and fever
and rheumatism. 4-16-6t

A Poor peY's FALL,
A Young Man Leaves Tie City and
Jumps His Debts.

A Young Man Leaves The City arc
Jumps His Debts.
Austin ID. Hicks, young man en-.
gagged in the fire insurance business,
left the CITY Saturday night, buying
a ticket to Henderson. lie presented
his own check for $40, which the
agent declined to cash until Il. f.
Morris, an employee of the road, vouch-
cd for its worth. Mr.. Morris will
lose $40 for his kindness. Since
Hicks left, other checks have been
found which were drawn and cashed
the same day, all of which are WORTH
lesr. Besides these debts, he owes a
good many bills about town and is
greatly behind with his companies.
He represented three companies, but
as they will cancel all unpaid policies
they will not lose much by him. 1t
will take several hundred dollars to
cover his liabilities. 1t was reported
yesterday that letter had been re-
ceived here written by him from De-
troit, in which he said he would new
er return and directing the recipient
to collect up some debts due him to
make good his overdrawn checks.
If this is true Hicks evidently thinks
he is liable for embezzlement In using
the money of his companies and is
making for Canada.
He is a young man about 20 years
old, and is a cripple, small and sick
ly. lie walks with a crutch under
one arm, as one leg is withered, and
has been useless from boyhood. He
came to this city from Crofion sever
al years ago and was a clerk in Mr..
e. P. Campbell's law Office until
few months ago, when he went into
the insurance business with S c..
Mercer, Jr. The firm was dissolved
last month.
He was member of the Baptist
church and until his recent down.
ward course began, enjoyed the con-
fdence and esteem of all who knew
and sympathized with him as a poor,
struggling afflicted boy. 1t is to be
hoped that his fall is not as bad as 1t
now seems and that he may yet set
himself right.
