Complication.

Frederick Hill, in his ''Autobiogrl-
ply" notes some of those childish
thoughts which are so real, so serious.
and yet so incomprehensible to older
people. One of them is especially
amusing. He says:
A favorite of my childhood was Mrs.
Barhauld's Hymns in Prose" I rec
oIIect, however, that in one of the
hymns a difficulty occurred to me. The
author speaks of a united family where
IF one is sick they mourn together; if
one is happy, they rejoice together"
What would they do, 1 thought, if
one were sick and another happy at
the same time?

The prospect Of relief from drastic cathartics
for persons troubled with constipation is poor
indeed. True they act upon the bowels, but this
they do with yioIence,and their operation tends
to weaken the intestines, and is preludicial TO
the stomach. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is an
efectuaI laxative, but il neither gripes nor en-

hours or sIeep.

One of the great mistakes Of par
ents and those who have charge OF
children is that they are likely to allow
the little ones too little time to sleep,
says the New York Ledger. With one
excuse and another the youngsters are
up later at night than they should be,
and as they must be off at school be-
times in the morning and there may be
duties to perform, they are called long
before they have finished their morn.
ing nap.
Children, as rule, ought to sleep ten
or eleven hours, and to do this they
must be put to bed early enough at
night so that they may get this amount
of uninterrupted rest. But it is a diff
cult thing to give the children the
amount of sleep they require because
there is always something going on in
the evening that interests them-some-
one comes in, there is a new paper or
book, or something is being talked of
that they like to hear. They plead and
entreat to stay up just little longer,
and with spirit of indulgence the
parents yield OF course this means
but one thing too little repose and a
curtailing of the hours of rest that ma
ture imparatiyely demands.
1t is no wonder that children are
nervous, fretful, and difficult to get
along with. Their nerves, inherited
from dyspeptic parents, are keenly alive
to every sound, and their tempers, none
the best or they would not be the chill
dren of their parents, are irritated by
being called out of bed when they so
much want to sleep. During the earlier
years of children, whatevhr else may
be done, there should be ample provis-
ion for long and undisturbed sleep. 1t
means health and strength in later
years, clear heads, good dispositions,
and well-regulated mentality.

Bullet.
Shot Down Without Warming by q
Man Whom He Had Never

SANTA ROSA, CAL, July 2o.-George
Fox, the man who was shot by Charles
Dennis Mccarthy of San Francisco on
Tuesday, June 25, died this evening at s
o'clock. s. Crooks. who lives between
Santa Rosa and Bellevue, and on whose
ranch the shooting took place, brought the
news to this city. The Coroner has been
notified and will hold an inquest to-mor-
row.
On Monday, June "a, Mccarthy came to
Santa Rosa and bought a 3S-caliber re-
volver. On his return to the Crooks ranch
on Tuesday morning he declared it was
his intention to kill Crooks on account of
some trivial injury.
Fortunately Crooks was not around.
About 10 o'clock Mccarthy deliberately
walked into the stable. where George Fox
was Harvesting horse, and when within
ten feet of him drew his pistol and fired,
the bullet entering the left shoulder and
lodging in the left lung. After the tragedy
Mccarthy gave himself up and was
brought to this city and placed in prison.
McCarthy's preliminary examination
took place last week. He was charged
with assault to kill and was held to answer
in the Superior Court. Mccarthy has
sister who lived at 1717 Jessie street, San
Francisco, who came TO Santa Rosa two
months before the shooting took place and
went 10 work on Crooks ranch, a few
