BRIGANDS.
they Descend at Night and Loot a Sar-
dinian village.


dinian Village.
The story of the recent attack of
brigands upon the little town of Tor
toll, in Sardinia, reads like a page out
of the history of the middle ages.
The robbers, more than 100 in num-
Der, descended upon the town from
the mountains. They were armed to
the teeth and carefully masked, as if
they were afraid of being identified.
Their first proceeding was to station
pickets at the end of every street
leading into the open country; then
the main body entered the town,
shouting and yelling and firing their
rifles, in order to intimidate the in
habitants. .. ..4a
The garrison consisted of only two
gendarmes in charge of brigadier.
These three brave fellows turned out
on hearing the firing, and, being
joined by several courageous and we'll
armed citizens, opposed the brigands'
advance. The fight which ensued
lasted several hours, and dusk had set
in before the defenders of the town
WSIO lludily IouUCo, lCnNIh oiiO III u "
der dead on the ground and the two
gendarmes and several citizens griev-
ously wounded. The brigands now
spread all over the town, helping
themselves to everything of value ex-
posed in the shops, and breaking into
and looting private houses. The in
habitants were terrorized, and nobody
ventured into the streets.
The strongest detachment of rob-
bers made for the house of Sig. Depon,
formerly syndic of Tortoli, and we'll
known to be possessed of ample
means. The servants had been
warned of the projected attack and
had bolted and barred the house. The
brigands, however, soon forced an en-
trance, and after a short fight, in
which the syndic's coachman was
killed. the defenders fed. The rob-
bers then went through the house and
secured, among other spoils, $4,000
lire in gold, 2O,00 lire in paper cur
rency, and jewelry worth 1900 lire.
With this and other booty they
marched of to their retreat in the hills.

GOT A BABY BOY NOW.
Happiness in q Southern Mans Home
Tells About the Red Flag OK
Danger at the Railroad Cross
ing-Warning to Americas

Men,
For twenty-six years have used
tobacco in great quantities and OF late
years took to cigarette smoking, writes
Mr.. w. E. Simpson of Lecompte. La.
Il want to go on record that tobacco
has robbed me of many years of life and
great deal of happiness. l realize 1t
now as l compare my feelings and my
condition with that of year ago,when
l was tobacco saturated cigarette
fiend. Many and many a time did l
try to quit smoking myself into etern-
ity, but l could not put through day
without suffering extreme nervous tor
ture, which would increase hour by
hour till finally, to save myself as 1t
seemed, from almost flying to pieces,
had to light the little, white pipe stick
and swallow the smoke. One day l
read in my paper Don't Tobacco Spit
and Smoke Your Life Away" just what
L was doing, it came to me like the
warning of the man who waves the red
flag Of danger at the railroad crossing,
and said that No-To-Bac was an abso-
lutely guaranteed relief from tobacco
slavery. I did not believe it, but like a
drowning man grasping at straw 1
commenced taking No-To-Bac. The eff
fects were ms gical, 1T destroyed the
nerve craving, and desire for cigarettes.
Two boxes, would you believe it, made
me well and strong. / have gained
mentally, physically, in vigor and man
hood, and with the brain free from the
nicotine and a breath no longer be-
fouled with tobacco smoke 1 am so hap
py to-day to write No-To-Bac did it all
a year ago, so the cure is time tested
and tried, not only in my own case, but
several of my friends who have been
also cured.
I'VE have baby boy now. My wife
and feel that all this happiness start
ed from the time when 1 first used No
To-Bac, and in evidence of our appre-
citation and in order that the memory of
the happiness may be perpetuated in a
living form, we want to name our baby
boy after the man who wrote the line
Don't Tobacco Spit and Smoke Your
Life Away"
''No-To-Bac is popular here and all our
druggists sell it. Hardly a day passes
but somebody asks me about No-To-
Bac, so don't want you to hesitate to
use these lines in any way that you
think will make known to suffering hui
mainly the happiness that there is in
store for the many men with nicotin-
lied brains and weakened resolutions.
If they will only make up their mind to
save the waste of vital powerful say
nothing of the money-now going up in
smoke and out in tobacco spit"

The Greatest Whist Player.

Deschapelles, the greatest whist
player the world has ever seen, had
but one hand and was an advanced re-
publican. His manual dexterity was
remarkable, and it was very interest
ing to watch him with his one hand
and that his left-collect the cards,
sort them, play them. and gather
them in tricks. Late in life, when he
had developed into ardent republi-
canism, he was supposed to have been
mixed up in some of the attempts at
revolution which broke out in the
earlier days of the reign of Louis
Philippe. His papers were seized,
and it was proved that he had drawn
up list of persons to be disposed of.
Among them was an elderly acquaint-
ance, so described: 'Vatry (Alphie)
to be guillotined. Reason-citoyen in
utile. Vatry is bad whist player. "

Deafness Can Not be Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.

any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
