Did you ever stop to think what in
digestion really means? 1t means
simply that your stomach is tired.
II our legs are tired, we ride. The
horse and the steam engine do the
work. Why not give your stomach
ride; that is. let something else do
its work? Foods can be digested out
side Of the body. All plants contain
digestive principles which will do
this. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
contains digestive principles and is q
preparation designed to rest the
stomach. The Shakers themselves
have such unbounded confidence in it
that they have placed 10 cent sample
bottles on the market, and it is said
that even SO small a quantity proves
beneficial in vast majority of cases.
All druggists keep it.
Laxol is the best medicine for
children. Doctors recommend it in
place Of castor oil.

TELEGRAM IN CIPHER
ACcnfused Message From PhilipSburg
in the Panicky Days.
"ANNOINT" AND "AMORETTE'
j. E. OppenheImer Then steps in
and Attaches Money to the Credit
of Freyschlag. Huffman & Co.
and It's in the Court Now.

A misinterpretation of a cipher tele-
gram, or the poor writing of a tele-
graph operator. was the point involved
in a case tried before Judge Speer yes
terday, in which ]. +. Oppenheimer
appeared as plaintiff and the First Ma
tional bank defendant, the real de-
PENDANT, however, being Freyschlag
Huffman & Co. of Philipsburg. who
failed in 1898. At the time of the fail
ure. the firm had on deposit in the First
National bank 81. 020.S7. A new firm was
Immediately organized, under the name
of Hyde. Freyschlag & Co, and the old
firm telegraphed to the bank an order
in cipher to transfer the amount to the
new firm. The word "Amorette" was
used to designate $4,000, but the word
was so poorly written in the message
received by the bank that the officials
could not make II out, but they finally
concluded that the word was "Anoint,"
meaning "twenty-nine hundred" The
telegram also stated that other remit
tances were on the way. AS the firm
did not have that amount of money in
the bank. Mr.. Davis held the telegram
TO await the arrival of the remittances
by mail. One remittance was received.
The amount on deposit was then suffi-
cient to cover the sum represented by
the word "Amorette." and while the
bank waited for the second remittance
to "Anoint." as read in the cipher. ]. +.
Oppenheimer brought suit against
Freyschlag, Huffman & Co. for s1,6s1
and interest and the money in the bank
was attached. In a trial before a jury
some time ago a verdict was given the
plaintiff for 1870 but a new trial was
granted and tried yesterday before
Judge Speer without jury. The case
was taken under Amusement and the
court will determine who had the best
claim on the money deposited In the
bank.
In the case of Thomas Rowan against
w. c. Bryant, the jury yesterday re-
turned a unanimous verdict for the
plaintiff for Sass. being the full amount
sued for.
d. L. Frugillo & Sons yesterday
brought suit against l.. j. Lachman g.
Co. for s755.S9. Another attachment
was issued.
An answer to the amended complaint
in the case of Nettie Cameron against
]. II. Leyson was filed yesterday in
which a denial of the alleged indebted
ness OF $500 is made and a counter
claim og 1896 set up.
In the case of Ernest Clark against
]. b. Powers. proofs were heard yester-
day and Judgment entered for the plain
tiff for s2S4.70 and 800 attorneys fees.
