After meals you should have simply
a feeling of comfort and satisfaction.
You should not feel any special indi-
cations that digestion is going on. If
you do, you have indigestion, which
means not-digestion. This may be
the beginning of so many dangerous
diseases, that it is best to take it in
hand at once and treat it with Shaker
Digestive Cordial. For you knew
that indigestion makes poison, which
causes pain and sickness. And that
Shaker Digestive Cordial helps diges-
tion and cures indigestion. Shaker
Digestive Cordial does this by provid-
ing the digestive materials in which
the sick stomach is wanting. 1t also
tones up and strengthens the diges-
tive organs and makes them perfectly
healthy. This is the rationale of its
method Of cure, as the doctors would
say. Sold by druggists, price 10 cents
to 81 per bottle.

member Tier Very Well.
Port Angeles, Wash, Dispatch: Mrs.
NJ. A. Stockton, who is accused of hav-
ing attempted to blackmail Rev c. o.
Brown of San Francisco, was resi-
dent of this city in the year 1891. dur
ing which time she figured prominent
ly as member of the Congregational
church. Immediately after her arrival
here she sought the acquaintance of
Rev. u. Chase and became a constant
visitor at his home but apparently her
one design on him was to persuade
him to adopt the younger of her two
children, little girl of 4 years. In
this she was successful, for when she
left the city the child remained with
Mr.. Chase. Mrs. Stockton first came
here in response to a notice published
by Mrs M. V. Smith, asking that some
kindergarten teacher establish a school
in this city. Mrs. Stockton took up
this work at once, and succeeded in Sc
curing generous subscriptions from nu-
merous young men about town for the
support of the institution.
Her relations with a contractor of
this city soon began to be a matter of
general gossip, and ii was stated that
she was receiving monthly remittances
from Lloyd Tevis, a prominent and
wealthy man of San Francisco, but the
good-looking kindergarten teacher con-
tinued to teach her Sunday school
class and succeeded in securing a large
attendance at her kindergarten. 1t was
evident during her residence here that
she was placing herself under constant
restraint, but 1t was so far relaxed af-
ter the closing of her school that her
real character was generally known
Two prominent attorneys decided sew
eral lots to her for a nominal consider
alton, and third presented her with
a bottle of champagne on the night OF
her departure from Port Angeles. Mrs
Stockton was considered attractive by
men and dangerous by women, and her
associations with the former caused
several family disturbances.

The body was hauled on the deck of

There were no bruises on the body

loose plank gave way under his weight
he went down nearly straight. his body
being bent slightly forward. and his
face coming in contact with the end of

ing. Noble was of great weight for
his height, and from the fact that
there are no marks on his fingers it
may be inferred that he had not time
to clutch at anything in the effort to
save himself. He must have fallen
like a shot, the blow on the eye stun
ming him, and Immediately sunk. Then
the tides and strong currents gradual

In his pockets were found a silver

The Journalists of the Day Had Big DIM

From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
OF all the reminiscent echoes from
the confederacy, there are few in the
journalistic line. Once in a while some
body runs across Vicksburg newspa-

siege, a Memphis Avalanche or a Rich
mond Whig; but journalism in the
South during the civil war was of
minor Importance. Pressmen, editors
and reporters were needed ''et the
'front.'" and a courier could bring the
news of battle sooner than a crippled
printing office could set the type to
tell the direful news. There were
newspapers. of course, with their lists
of killed, wounded and missing and
their more or less authentic accounts
of victories and skirmishes; but those
that could be depended upon for news
were scarce, and literally publications
had but few days and were full OF sor-
rows.

precarious existence and struggled
