ARE, Pa, Feb. 1O.-There are
~ ~ theories regarding the mysterious
dis..,.. -ance OF Rev j. NJ. Morris Of
Dury,, who has been missing nine days.
These theories are that lie has either cum
mitted suicide or is demented. a number
of his neighbOrs said he seemed to act
strangely to those with whom he talked.
His wife, a week before his disappearance,
had left for New York State to attend
the funeral of her father.
Mr.. Morris went into q. Dills' house,
which was next door, and gave Mrs. Dills
the key to his hOuse, telling her that IL
Mrs. Dills the owner of the house and a
cousin of q. Dills, should come and ask
for the rent To give her the key. Mrs. Dills
says he acted in a strange manner while
in the house. and did not seem to know
what he was talking about. He was seen
by others, who say the same thing about
the affair.
When the neighbors first noticed his alb
sence it was by the barking of his dog and
the noise made by n cat and a poll par
rot which were left in the house. The peO-
pie argue that if he was in his right 10 ind
he would not have left these locked up
in the house.
His wife returned to find a letter from
her husband stating that he was going
away, and she would never see him again.
The letter intimated suicide. This letter
has given rise to a great deal of excited
Comment in and about Pittston.

THEY RIDICULE IT.
Many People Ridicule the Idea
of an Absolute Cure for Dys- !
pepsia and Stomach
Troubles.
Ridicule, However, Is Not Argument,
and Facts Are stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common and in
many cases so obstinate To cure that people
are apt 10 look with suspicion on any remedy
claiming to be Il radical, permanent cure for
dyspepsia and Indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their aruteness in never being
humDugged, especially on medicines.
This fear of being humbueged may be ear
ried too far; SO far, in fact, that many per-
sons suffer for years with weak digestion
rather than risk Il little time and money in
faithfully testing the claims of prepara-
tion 50 reliable and universally used as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vast
ly different in one important respect from
ordinary proprietary medicines for the
reason that they are not IA secret patent
medicine, no secret is made of their in
gradients, but analysis shows them TO con-
tain the natural digestive ferments, pure
aseptc pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden
Seal, bismuth, hydrastis and nux. They
are not cathartic, neither do they act
powerfully on any organ, hut they cure
Indigestion on the common sense plan of
digcstinS the food eaten promptly, thor
oughly before it has time to fcrIncnt, sour
and cause the mischief. This is the only
secret OF their success.
Cathartc pills never have and never can
cure indigestion and stomach troubles be-
cause they act entirely upon the bowels,
whereas the whole trouble is really In the
stomach.
stnart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken after
meals, digest the food. That Is all there is
to ii. Food not disestcd or half digcsted is
poison asst creates gas, ac:dity headaches,
palpitation Of the lea rt, loss Of flesh and ap-
petite. and many other troubles which are
often called by some other name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere at
80 cents per package. Address Stuart Com
pany for book on stomach diseases or ask
your druggist for it.

Trial by 10 compurgators, which was OF
canonical origin, existed in Anglo-Saxon
times and only resembled what is know2
as trial by jury in the number of persons
sworn. Under the name of wager of law
it continued to be the law of England I'M
til abolished Aug. IA, 1888. Traces OF
trial by jury are found in the reigns of
William | and ii, Henry and Stephen,
but it was not fully established until the
reign of Henry IL. Trial by jury was first
adopted in criminal cases in the reign of
John--l1S9.99-and was the established
mode of dealing with them at the end of
the thirteenth century. Witnesses We're
examined and evidence first laid before
