BEAUTY.
How to Increase in Weight and Otherwise
Improve Ones Personal Appearance.


Every normally constituted man and
woman wants to look well. This is nat
ural and right We have little sympa-
thy for those people who through indo-
lence or gluttony have permitted them
selves to take ON too much flesh. They
know that by living abstemiously and
taking plenty of exercise they can get
back to their normal weight.
We do, however, have great deal Of
sympathy for those poor pale, thin sur
ferers who either have no appetite or
else whose food distresses them to such
a degree that they are forced to live on
a most frugal diet.
Their troubles arise from the fact
that they are unable to digest sufficient
food and when the stomach Is out of
order and fails to do Its proper work,
foods are worse than useless They
simply ferment in the stomach and I'LL
the system with poisonous principles.
What these people need Is something
that will digest their food after 1t has
been eaten, and 1t is in just such cases
that the Digestive Cordial as made by
the Mount Lebanon Shakers is proving
remarkably successful.
1t is so prompt in its action that a
sense of relief almost Immediately fol-
lows the first dose, and a rapid increase
in weight is soon noted.
The Shakers have issued an interest
ing pamphlet which may be obtained
upon inquiry at any drug store.

ORDERS TO sELECrMEN.

(
Things the State Commission Desire Them
to DO.
The Connecticut Highway commits
sion has sent out communication to
the selectmen of the various towns In
structing them as to the requirements
for making application for share of
the state highway appropriation. The
communication directs the selectmen to
proceed as follows:
/. Read the act carefully.
2. Call a town meeting and get the
right to appropriate money, and send a
copy of the resolution to the commits
sion, which must give a full description
of the road to be improved, its location,
kind, the distance in feet or miles,
naming the starting point and the ter
minus, A survey Of the road and speci-
fications must accompany the applica-
ton for the appropriation.
g. The commission will not act on or
decide any case until after August 18th,
but will meet every day until that time
to answer all inquiries and give any in
formation desired. No town can re-
ceive any money from either the state
or county until after December 18th.
Towns should bear this in mind and
provide for the whole amount of the
contract with the party building the
road.
The commission strongly recommends
the use of steam rollers, and says:
'"This fact is recognized by every
state where macadamized roads have
been made or are now in the process of
construction, and as We do not wish at
the start of this great and important
measure, one that is of SO vital an in
terest to the citizens of our state, to
make a wrong beginning, we hope to
make some arrangement whereby we
can secure steam rollers to do the work.
If we are not successful we will be COM
PEELED to adopt some other means of
carrying on the work.
1t is also suggested that all sharp
curves be eliminated, and the highway
Strengthened where practicable. This
can be easily done by mutual consent of
landowners. and should not cost any
thing. as the advantage is so clearly in
favor of all that a question of a few
feet of land will hardly be a serious OBJ
lection
Accompanying the communication is
a copy of the law and a blank form of
application for the appropriation.

sWEDINsKEY IN COURT.
SeIf-Confessed Murderer of Mrs.
Kent Appears.

FARGO, n. D., July 25.-Several i'm
portant witnesses were called to the
stand in the Kent case today, and it
has been a lively session. The attor-
neys have no love for each other, and
the many differences on the former
trial are here and there revived, and
there is generally a. Squall in progress
in the court room. Probably one OF
the most important witnesses was Edi-
tor r. NJ. Tuttle, of the Mandan Pho
neer. He was objected to as a witness
on account of his name not appearing
in the information, but the court over
ruled the objection. He was asked to
explain certain articles appearing in
his paper at the time of the former
trial, and there was a great deal of
controversy, as he thought it nobody's
business who wrote the articles, so
long as they contained facts. DR.. E.
w. Reed, of Mandan, was also on the
stand, and testified as to the condition
of Mrs. Kent's wound when he was
called to see her. Thomas Swedin-
skey, the self-confessed murderer OF
Mrs. Kent, for the first time was
brought into the court room just be-
fore adjournment. He is a gree farm
hand, and does not wear the express
sion of a haggard criminal, but, on
the contrary, looks as though he were
honest, though, perhaps, easily enticed.
Some interesting testimony is expected
from him tomorrow.

HOLMES, GAS swINDLE.
How He Robbed the Gas Company
With His IIInvention.I

WINONA, Mimi, July Pa local
paper this evening publishes an inter-
view with r. C. Timberlake, a promi-
nent hotel man, who for ten years lived
in close proximity to H. II. Holmes,
the alleged murderer and insurance
swindler. The substance of this inter-
view is that Holmes first opened buSi-
ness in a small one-story frame store
on the northwest corner of SiXty-third
and Wallace streets, Chicago. Holmes
bought a vacant lot across the street
at 500 per front foot and erected a
brick building thereon, for which he
went deeply in debt. He started a 'gas
plant in the basement of this build
ing and claimed to manufacture his
own gas, by q patent method, with oil
and water. He kept jets burning day
and night. Subsequently the gas COM
pany discovered that their mains were
tapped. 1t appears that Holmes had
tunneled into the street, connected
pipes with the mains, led them in
through his machine, and from it
piped the gas throughout the building.
Holmes plant was discovered, and
he compromised with the gas company,
paying them certain sum to avoid
Imprisonment. Later on, at the north
east corner of SiXty-fifth and Wallace
streets, he started what he termed a
assworking factory. 1t is said that
he interested several parties in the
scheme, and got them to invest con-
siderable money in it. The plant was
started, but very offensive fumes is
sued therefrom. Some of the dwellers
in the neighborhood, including Mr..
Timberlake, presented a petition to the
city authorities, and inside of a week
Holmes was compelled to abandon the
glass factory without having turned
<out any product. Mr.. Timberlake
elived in the house at 642 SiXty-fifth
street, which property he still owns.
Holmes, it is alleged, had the reputa-
;tion of being a schemer and unreliable,
and although not considered a danger
Gus man, is said to have always been
ready to gather in money. regardless
of consequences. He was considered
: one of the most Industrious men in

short time ago by the disappearance of
Fred r. Church, one of the bookkeep-

He was arrested yesterday by Sheriff
Waterman, of this county, on a charge

recently in the employ of the Rice
Lake, Dallas & Menomonie Railway
company, on charge of alternating his
wife's affections. The woman disap-
peared a short time before Church did.
AT hearing held today he waived ex-
animation, and was bound over to the
next term of the circuit court. bail
being fixed at $500, which will no doubt
be given. Church is chairman of the

CANADA MAY GET HIM.
TOrOnto's Claim Believed to Be
the Strongest.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 25-
While the application for the extra
dition of Holmes, who was charged
with the murder of the two Pietzel
children by the coroner's jury. in To-
ronto. last night, must necessarily be
made to Gov. Hastings, at Harrisburg,
and the papers issued from his Office,
the question as to whether the GRIM
inal will be taken to Canada to stand
trial for murder rests with District
Attorney Graham. Holmes is a self
convicted conspirator and is now
awaiting sentence, so that 1t remains
practically for Mr. Graham to say
whether he shall be taken across the
border or remain in this city, where
he has long been suspected of killing
Benjamin Pietzel. The district at
torney is much pleased with the turn
affairs have taken in Toronto. He be-
-lieves that the result of the delibera-
tions of the coroner's jury at Toronto
is equivalent to a, conviction of Holmes
in the criminal court. 1t is now almost
certain that Holmes will be taken to
Canada to answer there for the bloody
deed which it Is confidently believed
he committed in Toronto last October.
Both Holmes and his lawyer have as
serted that they will not resist eX-
tradition proceedings from Canada.

Awful Ravages of Cholera in jap
aneSe Cities,

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 25.-
Cholera is raging in Japan. Nearly
every province reports a heavy death
rate from the disease. The officers and
passengers of the City of Pekin tell
tales of death from cholera in the
streets of the cities where the steamer
called. From the outbreak of the dis
ease until the day the steamer sailed
from Yokohama 1,1S3 deaths had been
reported. The disease was brought
to Japan by the forces returning from
the war in China and Corea, and
wherever a regiment was sent home
and disbanded cases of cholera began
to develop and the disease spread with
such rapidity that the physicians of
the district were unable to check it.
Military quarantines were established
and all regiments returning were held
until all traces of the disease were
stamped out. In spite of such pre-
;&Itions and the united efforts Of the
quarantine officers and physicians, the
plague has become prevalent and all
the way from so to 100 deaths day are
reported from it and many more are
said to occur that never reach the
ears of the authorities.
