by handsome young woman VINO Oc-

All eyes We're straightway directed at

Mrs. Barry's husband slipped out and

Mrs. Barry said that last Thursday
the young woman, accompanied by the
young man, entered her place and de-
sired to be shown some hats She
greatly admired one like those that the
ladies in the Prisoner Of Zenda' wear,
but the price was so. So and the young
woman sighed and said she could not
afford it,
Her escort went out on some preteXt,
and soon the woman followed. without

the hat under his Overcoat.
Both the woman and the man de-

large number of the members Of the

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indiges-
ton by Dieting a Barbarous and
Useless One.

We say the old way, but really it IS
a very common one a. present time and
many dyspeptics and physicians as well
consider the first step to take in at
tempting to cure indigestion, is to diet
either by selecting. certain foods and
rejecting others or to greatly diminish
the quantity usually taken. in other
words the starvation plan is by many
supposed to be the first essential
The almost certain feature of the ar
walton cure for dyspepsia has been
proven time and again. but still the
ance q course of dieting is at once ad-
vised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is fool
ish and unscientiflc to recommend diet
ing or starvation to a man suferlng
from Dyspepsia. because Indigestion it
self starves every organ and every
nerve and every fibre in the body.
What the Dyspeptic wants is abund-
ant nutrition which means plenty of
good. wholesome. Well-cOOked food and
Something to assist the weak stomach
to digest it This is exactly the pur-
let's are adapted and this is the method
bv which they cure the worst cases of
Dyspepsia, in other words the patient
eats plenty OF wholesome food and Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets digest it for
him In this way the system is nour-
ed because the tablets will digest the
food whether the stomach works or not.
One of these tabletS viii digest 3 0Oo
grains of meat or eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest
troubles and every trial makes one
more friend for this excellent Drepa ra-
ton Sold at Scots for full sized pack

Figures of Divorced People in the
United States.

New York, Dec. 2.-In round numbers
greater New York has a population OF
just One-half that of the entire state.
According to the census of 1890 there
We're 2.219 divorced men and 1896 di-
vorced women living in the state. If
the population of greater New York
of the state it would appear that there
were 2SO6 divorced persons living in
this vicinity
All authorities agree that the per-
centage of divorce in cities is slightly
greater than in the country, hence add
ing L per cent to the total number the
result which is as nearly correct as
possible, is 1884.
The eleventh census reports show that
the entire population of the United
States. 81, 129, 564, or % per cent, were
single; p. 231, 424, or 1886 per cent were
married; 2,97O,O52, or 4.74 per cent were
widowed; 100, 1896, or O.20 per cent, were
divorced and for 7O,214 the cOnjugal

puted by the census experts is as fol-

The statistics compiled by the health

1898, 16. IA marriages took place; in 1894,
1855 in 1885, 20,612. and during the

She was Elected to Office in Brown
County, Neb.

Chadron, Neb-. Dec. Miss Estelle
Mae DavissOn, who was recently elect
ed to the office of county attorney in
Brown county, is one of the best and
one of the brightest lawyers in north
western Nebraska One of the surprises
in the political kaleidoscope of the cOun-
ties in this section of the state was the
election of a Populist over the Repubh-
cans.
Brown county's normal Republican
majority has been about 500. But this
year the fair candidate for county at
tOrney was elected without an effort, al
though pitted against a strong and pop
ular gentleman on the Republican side.
Miss Davisson is a native of Iowa, and
has not yet reached the age Of %. She
imbibed her first notions of law on her
fathers knee. Miss DavissOn is an able
lawyer and graduate Of Michigan uni
Versity.
She attended the public schools of Sib-
ley. Ia. In 1886 she came to Long Pine,
Neb., her present home, and finished her
secular education in the high school.
In 1894 she entered the law department
of the state university at Lincoln. and
two years later came out of it full
fiedged lawyer. She was nominated as
a fusion candidate and won easily. Miss
DavissOn is the only woman in Nebras-
ka perhaps in the country, that has
been elected to the position Of county
attorney.

HARRISON BABY CLOTHES.
Extensive Preparations for the Flu
ture in the Ex-President's Home

Indianapolis, Dec 2-The sentiment
that manifested itself in such q gener-
Gus reception TO Mrs. Benjamin Harri-
son when she returned TO this city as
the wife of the x-preSident, and the
bright anticipatiOns OF pleasure that
preceded her entrance into the select
circles of Indianapolis society, are not
to be compared with the interest that is
now centered upon her by those who
have become her close personal friends.
Indeed the event which is expected TO
occur within the next three months is
one that appeals with peculiar emphasis
to her sex, and it is causing not only in
teresting comment among her friends
but is awakening those symparhies
which are both proper and Characters
tic under circumstances such as now OBJ
tain
Extensive preparations have now
been made for the expected advent in
the way of an unusually handsome
wardrobe, consisting of excellent dress
eS dainty underwear Of the most ornate
and expensive patterns and little wraps
of the finest cashmere. elegantly bro
caded and trimmed in the most costly
French laces.
The material from which most of
these articles were made was purchased
in New York when the president and
Mrs. Harrison we're on their way home
from their summer stay in the AdirOn-
dacks
With the occasional assistance of the
house keeper, when her other duties
permitted it, Mrs Harrison has made
the various articles of clothing with her
own hands, preferring to do so herself
as the work gave her employment and
thus enabled her to pass her leisure mo-
ments pr06tably.
Her friends say that she is an ex-
ceptiOnally neat seamstress and that
her embroidery work is exquisite, both
in design and execution. They speak
particularly of the work on q dainty
white silk gown one Of them declaring
that it is the cutest thing Il ever saw"
From the reports which are based upon
birds eye views of the ward robe, it is
assumed to be the most complete and
at the same time the finest ever pro-
vided for q similar event in the city.
