THE PARENT OF INSOMNIA.

rae parent OF insomnia or WakefulneSs
is, in rlihe cases out of ten, a dyspeptie
stomach. Good digestion gives sound
sleep, indigestion interferes with 1t. The
brain and stomach sympathize. One of
the prominent symptoms of weak state
of the gastric organs is disturbance of
the great nerve entrepot, the brain. In.
vigorate the stomach, and you restore
equilibrium to the great center. A most
reliable medicine for the purpose is Hos.
letters Stomach Bitters, which is fal
preferable to mineral sedatives and pow
erful narcotics which, though they may
for time exert a soporifc influence upon
the brain, soon cease to act, and invari
ably injure the tone of the stomach. The
Bitters, on the contrary, restore activity
to the operations of that all important
organ, and their bene6cent influence is
reflected in sound sleep and a tranquil
state of the nervous system. A whole
some impetus is likewise given to the ac-
ton of the liver and bowels by it's use.

ROWE VS.. THE B. g. o. R. R.
The Judgment of the Frederick
Court in the Rowe Case Re
versed in the Court of
Appeals.

On Friday last, the Court of Appeals
reversed the judgment of the Circuit
Court of Frederick County, and award
ed new trial in theIcase of Samuel A.
Rowe VS.. the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company; opinion by Judge
BriscOe.
The plaintiff sued the railroad to re-
cover damages for injuries sustained
while driving over and along the
changed and newly constructed por-
ton of the public road leading from
Sandy Hook, Md, to Harper's Ferry,
w. Va. The object of the change was
to enable the railroad to construct a
tunnel under the southern portion of
what is known as Maryland Heights"
and to change the location of its rail-
way tracks. The accident happened,
it is claimed, before the road had
been accepted or approved by the
County Commissioners of Washington
County, who had given the appellee
permission to change the location of
the roadbed. At the trial below the
plaintiff reserved four exceptions to
the rulings of the court, and the
judgment being against him, he ap
appealed. The first exception as to
the refusal of the court to allow wit
ness to relate conversation had with
a foreman of the work as to the dam
gerous condition of the road, the court
holds was clearly inadmissible, and
was properly rejected. The second eX-
ception as to the offer of the plaintiff to
prove by the Clerk of the County Com
missioners that the road had been ex-
amined by the commissioners and the
overhanging rock had been ordered to
be removed, the court says, was dispos-
ed of for the reasons assigned IN the
first exception. AS to the third and
fourth exceptions, embracing the rul-
ing of the court upon whether there
was error in granting the defendants
prayer at the close of the plaintiff
case, which instructed the jury that
there was no legally sufficient evil
dence that the injury was occasioned
by the negligence of the defendant,
and their verdict must be for the plain
tiff The court holds that there was
error in withdrawing the case and not
allowing the jury to consider it.
