WRONG AND RIGHT EATING. One Makes us Weak: the Other
 Makes Us Strong.

Wrong eating makes us weak, be- cause it doesn't nourish Us. It poisons us, because it sets up poisonous fer mentation in our stomach and the poi sons go into our blood.
 Wrong eating is eating indigestible food, or eating more than our stomach is able to digest. ... Right eating is eating digestible food, food that the stomach is able to di- gest, food that will nourish you when it Is digested.
 Right eating strengthens and tnylg- orates the body, gives endurance. in- creases weight and restores health.
 Wrong eating can be made right by taking the Shaker Digestive Cordial. This preparation, made by the Shakers from simple herbs, roots and wine, is delicious, refreshing, and strengthen ing to the body. It is powerful aid to digestion.
 It does not act by strongly stimu- lating the stomach, but with it's own digestive ferments acts on the food in the stomach, and reduces, instead of increasing, the work which the stomach has to do.
 This is why 1t increases your strength why, it will cure you of all the bad effects of indigestion and of insufficient nourishment, and purif1es your system of all dangerous indigestive poisons when nothing else has been found to relieve you.
 At druggists. Ten cents for g. trial bottle.

Agamemnon was so stupid that, If he hung himself, as sometimes happened, on the corner of the tin box where I made his bed, he just let himself hang till released, with never a struggle. At last, tired of his inanity, we turned him loose in the garden, where, fear, some i'll befell him, as remains of his kind were found in the strawberry next season. Perhaps he had surfeit.
 We had 8. fox once, called Charley, who was amusing in his way, but being chained to a, kennel at the back of the house, caused me nasal anguish. He bit every one who went near enough, except his master (whose nose, by the way, he once scratched), and he loathed the fox-terriers. It was funny to see him enticing them near by lying on his back and mournfully crying, as if in suffering. When the inquisitiYe dogs came within reach, he jumped up and nipped their legs.

COAL TRADE CONDITIONS
The Market Has Improved on Account
Of Seasonable Weather - No
Change 10 Prices is Expected.

New York Dec. 2.-Anthracite coal
trade conditions, it is announced, have
improved of late on account of the
more seasonable weather. No change
in prices is expected this year, and it
Is understood that the September
schedule will be adhered to until 1897.
During that year an era of prosper
ity Is confidently looked for by those
interested in the trade. The mining
and carrying companies report new
orders at tide water very light, but it
Is claimed that prices are not far from
the September circular. There is au-
thority for the statement that most of
the coal that has been moved in the
last three months and is being shipped
at present was sold fully % cents per
ton below the September basis. Cut
ting of prices has been done by indi-
vidual operators and through jobbers
There is plenty of coal at the west
and better prices have been secured
than in any tide water market. Coal
has been accommodating at the east. but
continued cold weather Is expected to
relieve the market. 1t can be safely
assumed that, although the agreement
between the anthracite coal presidents
nominally expires on Jan. l next. no
change will be made In the conduct of
the trade. The agreement runs on
subject to thirty days notice.

RACING MEN in SESSION
The Board of Review Of the National
Trotting Association Considers
Some Important Track Cases.

New York, Dec. 1.-The Board of
Review of the National Trotting asso-
citation resumed Its sessions at the
Murray Hill hotel today.
The sensational case of the pacing
gelding, Charley p, which, although
the board has an abundant mass of
business of routine nature to act
upon, is the important feature of the
annual meeting. was the first question
to be taken up today.
Mr.. Reed, a lawyer, from Boston, ap-
peared for Gormley and Fitzgerald.
Fitzgerald himself was the first wit
ness. He said that he knew Clark. He
talked abut the horse at Mystic park.
Medford. and Clark said he was the
owner of the animal. He (Clark)
bought the horse without knowing of
his previovus doings and had trotted
him honestly.
The well-known driver. John NJ.
Ramsey. was the next witness, and
said he trained and drove Charley p.
in 1896 for Fitzgerald. Lawyer Reed
followed with strong appeal for Fitz-
gerald. in which he demanded that
Fitzgerald be restored to the privi-
leges of the trotting turf. He also de-
manded that punishment be meted out
to the guilty parties in the case, and
asked for the reinstatement Of Driver
Ramsey. The reinstatement of the
horse was also asked for on the ground
that it had been used as an instrument
of fraud. intentionally. The matter
was laid over until the execution ses-
sion after the adjournment Of the
meeting today.
The board next took up the case that
is of ten years standing. In 1884 a
race was trotted at Dover. N. H..
which was given to a mare named
Belle Sargent. There was some foul
ing in the race, Belle Sargent had won

1886 decided that the judges erred.
The appeal in the case of Derby Prin-
cess and Fred s.. In the Transyivania
stakes at Lexington last summer also
went over. The John r. Gentry-Joe
Patchen hippedrome race at Belmont
park, Philadelphia. was held over In
like manner. after some evidence had
been taken.
Johnson and Colt appealed from the
decision of the judges at Providence,
II. l.. last September when they re-
versed the placing Of the Cleveland
horseman McDuff. in the third heat,
placing him sixth after having pre-
viOusly awarded him third.
Another case of ringing" was
brought to light in the appeal of c. H.

bought a mare called "Hampden Girl

ed the fate of all the Others in being

the vast amount of business before the
board it is not likely that the meeting
will adjourn before Saturday.

GERMAN POLITICAL SECRETS.
They Are Expected te Come Out in
Berlin Libel Suit.

Berlin, Dec. 1.-The trial OF Herr
Leckert, Baron Won Luetzow. Herr tio-
etz, Herr Berger and Herr Foellmer,
the journalists, who are charged with
libelling Count Won Gutenberg, Baron
Marshal Won Bieberstein and Prince
Alexander Won Hohenlohe commenced
today. The case arises from The two
fold versions of the cZar's and Emperor
Williams toast at Breslau, and the
alleged libels are contained in COM
ments on the modified official version
of the toast in asserting that the pub
lication of the first version. which the
libel construed as unfriendly to Ger
many, was due to the frresponsibility
of the government and to English in
tluenceS.
Herr Leckert refuses to divulge the
name of the person who gave him the
information upon which he based his
criticism. but he is believed to be Bcr-
lin official The trial is causing
sensation among political circles, as 1t
Is expected to reveal the workings of
the court clique, which, dominated by
the former minister of the Interior
Count Botho Won Gutenberg, the lat
ter's cousin, the present court marshal
and Richthofen, the eX-chief of police,
is credited with bringing about the
downfall of General Won Caprivi. the
predecessor of Prince Hohenlohe as
imperial chancellor. They are also
charged with being the instigators of
the press war waged for a year past
against Prince Hohenlohe, the chan
cellor, and Baron Marshal Won Bieber-
stein, the minister for foreign affairs.
This clique has heretofore been sup
posed to enjoy the confidence of En-
peror William, and Prince Hohenlohe
and Baron Won Bieberstein, both Of
whom are to be called to the witness
stand, intend to expose the whole plot
of the clique's attempts to force them
to resign.
Herr Leckert and Baron Won Luet-
zow were examined at length, and the
latter admitted that he was the chief
author of the articles complained of,
adding that Herr Leckert hinted that
he had obtained the story of the
changed versions from an official Of
the foreign office.
