Carey, residing near this borough
made very narrow escape from being
shot Inst night. She was sitting In

the ball came from a revolver in the
hands of one of n party OF two colored
men who were passing her house. A
warrant was sworn out for their arrest
and this morning one of them, Morris
Jones, light mulutto, was arrested
and locked up and will be sent to pri-

divorce case is now before the Rhode
Island Court, in which Mrs. Nancy
Thrift, the buxom and pretty l5-year-

for an absolute divorce from her

looked as IL his heart had been broken

woman testified that her shadowy

mercil6ss tyralit; that he had been
wont, for year. to kick her and drag
her up and down the room while she
walled, and that once or twice he had
thrust her out into the pitiless night. y
During all this torture, she confessed
to the willy counselor for the doctor,
she continued ''to gain flesh"
Mrs. Thrift's story grew more elo-
quent and sentimental as she went on.
Her husband, she said, was like n bee
that fitted from flower to flower, and
he told her once that beauty was fash
ionDd for mans admiration; that he
could never pass a pretty girl without
being interested in her. Before they
had been marrled six months he had a
long list OF girls that We're just dying

CATARRH.
Catarrhal Deafness, Hay Fever---A New
Home Treatment.
-Chrtstian Advacata

-Christian Advocate.
Sufferers are lot generally aware
that these diseases are contagious, OF
that they are due to the presence OF
living Parasites in the lining men,
brane of the nose and custachian tubes
Microscopic research, however, has
proved this to be fact and the result
of this discovery is that a simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
catarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay
fever are permantly cured in from one
to three simple applications made at
home by the patient once in two
weeks.
N. B.-This treatment is not a
snuff or an ointment; both have been
discarded by reputable physicians as
injurious. A pamphlet explaining this
new treatment is sent free on receipt
