A stomachful of undigested
food is about as unhealthy mass
as one can well imagine.
What can be done with it?
There it stays. IL won't digest
1t churns up, ferments and decays;
becomes poisonous Gas all putrid
matter does) and causes great pain
and deep-seated disorders.
In order to change all this, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
1t stops fermentation and decay
at once, so that no more poisons
are created.
1t clears the stomach of poisons
already there. 1t helps it to turn
the food that remains, into health
full nourishment. 1t strengthens
the stomach for the next meal.
Here is the whole philosophy
and cure of indigestion in few
words. P>nd what's more, it's all
true. Try it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is for
sale by druggists, price 10 cents to
81 90 bottle.

WHERE BICYCLES COME FROM.

1t is a source of wonder where
all the bicycles come from. a
careful examination Of the cata.
logues show that there are more
than 1000 different makes of bi.
cycles on the market. At some OF
of these establishments as many as
100000 wheels are made annually.
Practically there are no patents on
these machines, except on unim-
portant specialities, and so it is an
easy matter 10 put a new wheel on
the market. There is not so much
difference in wheels as one is in
clined to suppose. Few manufact-
urers make whole machine in
their own shops, but by far the
larger number buy the parts from
some maker and simply put them
together, finish them, give them a
name and put them on the market.
For this reason fully equipped
bicycle manufactory can be put in
running order for $1,000 or G,000.
Hundreds of wheels of different
makes are produced, every piece of
which is turned out of the same
factory that furnishes the different
parts, and all that the mandatory
requires is good master mechanic
and some ordinary finishers and
workmen. The bicycle is not an
expensive thing TO build, and the
difference between the cost of the
mount and the price it is sold for is
so large that the manufacture of
wheels has been enormously slim
ulated. But were it not for costly
salesrooms, extensive advertising
and large commissions to agents
the price of the wheel would be
very materially reduced to the
purchaser. 1t is estimated the
present spring and summer at least
100000 wheels have been sold in
this country alone, which has in
volvcd an outlay of S5O,0O0,OOO by |
the wheelmen Of the United States,
and still the demand is undated |
and bicycles are being marketed |
by the thousands every day.

THE GOULD SKELETON.
Testimony In the Suit Of His Al
legged Widow.
PASTOR LEIGHTON AS A WITNESS.

He Received S1.25 For Marrying Couple |
From Canada-The Goulds Say "Black-
maiI"-An Alleged Daughter-An Inter- |
esting Exhibit In the Case.
To those who are unfamiliar with the |
story of Jay Gould's early life the suit now |
pending of an old. wrinkled and illiterate |
woman, Sarah Ann Angel by name, for a
dover right in s72,000.OO0 comes like a
thunder clap in a clear sky. But to others
the story has been known for years, and
the success by which the skeleton has been
kept locked in the family closet seems mar
velous. The plaintiff has come into court
and alleged she married Gould on or about
April 16. 1853: that she lived with him as
his lawful wife, and that when he died he
left her lawful widow. 1t was in 1852
that Gould went to Rouse's Point with
plans for a survey of the entire state of
New York. The future millionaire was
then but Is years old. and the old woman
of today who claims to be his widow was
but Is. Her yellow locks, rural innocence
and ingenious simplicity took Gould's
eye, and according to the plaintiff he soon
married her. The young couple did not
live together Tor any length OF tline anu
shortly after the marriage the wife sepa-
| rated from her own family and went to
work as n domestic in another household
She still kept her maiden name of Sarah
Brown, so the story goes. and had little
| intercourse with her own family. 1t was
therefore surprise to her father when she
| came home one day with little daughter.
| Nor did his anger melt when the particu-
| lars of the wedding were carefully related
| to him. He asked for the proof, and the
| daughter produced a marriage certificate.
which. according to the story she now tells.
| Rev. DR.. Nathan Leighton, now of Tunk-
hammock. Pa, had lawfully filled out and
| given to her. In n fit of rage he tore it up
| and threw it in the fire. Its loss, how
| ever seems not to be very material, for
Rev. DR.. Leighton seems to think that he
| performed the ceremony. His testimony
| in the case is that he has book containing
| memoranda which gives n record of the
marriage of a couple who might have been
| Gould ard Miss Angel, and the record
| showed lie received Sl.25 for tying the
| knot DR. Leighton remembered a servant
girl who was in his employ during the
| year 1858, who had remained one year, and
| he had married her to George Edisford
Her name was Mary Ann Shields. Witness
