DON'T POISON YOURSELF.
Food is Poison II Allowed to Fer
Inent in Your Stomach.

Putrid food contains poisons so dangerous
that they cause effects similar to alkaloids
which druggists are not allowed to sell To tbe
public.
No wonder so many of us become dangerous
y sick from Indigestion!
For what is indigestion?
1t is putrid (undigested) food in the
stomach.
The poisons of undigested food are absorbed
into the blood. and affect the liver, the nerves.
the kidneys, the heart and all the organs of
the body.
They cause weakness, lethargy, headache.
dizziness, mental depression, bad taste,
stomach ache, fever. tiatalence, paipitaton,
nausea, constipation, loss of appetite, jaun-
dice. prostration, annmia. rheumatism, etc.
They can be got rid OF only by helping the
stomach to digest its food. and this is done by
the Shaker Digestive Cordial
You will never be strong or healthy so long
as you suffer from indigestion, so long as you
allow your stomach to taint your system with
the poisons OF putrid food.
And, as for n cure, nothing will cure YOU so
quickly AS Shaker Digestive Cordial, nothing
so certainly relieve your pain and discomfort
or give you new strength, energy, and endur-
ance.

ELECTRIC CARS THROUGH EARLY.
Working Car With 20 Men Leaves Hallowell
at 7 80 A. N.

The electric cars were given hearty
welcome, Thursday, when they appeared
on the street for the first time since Sun
day. The company had made every effort
to get them running, Wednesday, but the
bad condition of the road, and tronble at
the power station made it impossible.
The first car to make the start left
Hallowell, for Augusta, about A. Nj,
the working car which carried about 90
men prepared for clearing the way. All
during the previous night the men had
been at work clearing the snow and ice
away, but the work gang found plenty
to be DONE
They passed through Augusta about 9
O'Clock, returning to Hallowell at $50.
Immediately on the working car 5
return, cars were sent out to Augusta,
and the side tracks having been cleared,
the cars We're running on regular time.
The working car, meanwhile, started
off in the direction of Gardiner, and, by
noon. had gotten the road clear as far as
the causeway, well into Gardiner, and
cars at once set to running
The company had many difficulties to
encounter in the way of drifted snow and
ice, frozen into the tracks and deserves
much credit for its excellent work in
getting cars moving as soon as 1t did.

COURT DENOUNCED
By the Widow of the Murdered Bull
garian Premier.

SOFIA, Dec. 28.-Mme Stambuloff,
widow of the murdered ex-premier Of
Bulgaria, whose alleged assassins are
Oh trial here, made a short but i'm
passioned speech yesterday before the
mixed tribunal which is hearing the
case. Nine Stambuloff, when the trial
was begun, declined to attend, but in
response to repeated requests, she at
tended the sitting of the court yester-
day heavily yelled. When her name
was called, a deep silence fell upon the
assemblage. The widow rose with
great dignity and speaking in a voice
shaking with emotion, she said:
you have insisted upon my pres
erce, and 1 am here. I have nothing
to say, because [ do not see arraigned
before your honorable court those who
are known to be the real assassins of
my late husband. You know them, Mr..
President, and you, too, Mr.. Procurator
General Is it not so?- You know them,
as all the world does. Where are
they? I do not see them here"
Then, with a gesture full of fire and
Indignation, she exclaimed, pointing to
the alleged murderers of her husband:
"Acquit the miserable people. Sum-
mon before you the really guilty men.
who are at present the government l
have nothing to add and I will now
withdraw"
This accusation from the widow Of
the great Bulgarian statesman, known
as the Bismarck Of Bulgaria, made
deep impression upon the audience,
which was composed of people belong
ing to the higher ranks of society.
The presiding judge and procurator
general were so unnerved by the terri
BILE earnestness of the woman, who
thus forcibly denounced the methods
employed in the trial of the alleged
murderers of her husband, that they
were unable to put a single question
to her and she left the court room,
picture of grief, demanding vengeance
from tribunal Of which she knew so
we'll that little or nothing could be ex-
pected.
The address of Nine. StambulOff is
matter of general comment in the gov
ernment newspapers today. But the
keynote Of their remarks, taken from
the leading organ Of the ministry of
Prince Ferdinand, is that the wife and
friends of Mr.. Stambulof ought to
have taken measures for the protection
Of the man whom the government
newspapers say, either labored under
mental arrangements or was 80 con-
vinced of his own misdeeds that he
sought death in the streets"
