The Latest Scientific Knowledge
 on Food and Digestion.

The real cause of most of our diseases is simply an inability to digest food. This induces thinness, weakness, loss of flesh and fat, loss of vitality, vast ing away
 Loss of flesh and vitality means con- stant liability to sickness. Wasting .away is consumption.
 If getting thin is what ails you, there is only one thing to do--get fat. The only way to do it is to take some thing which will help your stomach and stimulate it to do it's work.
 If you are tired out you do not like to move your legs or arms. If your stomach is tired it does not like to di- gest it cannot do it's work.
 To eat, or even to eat with relish, does not necessarily mean that one is being nourshed. Strength vitality and flesh are the true indications.
 Getting thin is sign that you need the Shaker Digestive Cordial. You would not be getting thin if you could digest your food
 The Shaker Digestive Cordial not only contains artificially digested food but 1t will digest other foods in the stomach.
 A single 10 cent bottle will show whether or not it is going to meet the conditions of your case, and, if so, it's continued use may be depended on to effect a cure. All druggists keep it ill stock

THE REASON WHY

I have engaged the services of a most skilled chiropodist to treat my customers feet free is this:
 Hundreds of people have corns, bunions and ingrowing toe nails. No shoe will ever feel comforts ble as long as these tortures ex. ist. But my shoes will give perfect ease after those troubles have been removed. My shoes will not cause those troubles to come back again.
 That's the reason. l am will ing to bear every cent of the expense myself, because believe the money will come back to me many times over through grate- full customers.
 Buy a pair of shoes here and have your feet treated free.

Dora Out Again.

Dora Donnegan secured bail in Jus
tice Richardson's court after having
been arrested for what the Harrison
street desk sergeant said was the
thousandth time. Dora has retrousse
nose and a sallow complexion. She is
30 years old. She has hardened feat
ures. Her reputation among the police
is that of bad woman. When Dora
meets a man from Elgin or Oshkosh
and smiles on him he feels flattered.
Dora dresses tastefully and looks bad"
only to the police. That is the way J.
F. Clark OF Elgin felt when Dora smil-
ed on him and spoke pleasantly to aim
at Madison and Dearborn streets Sun
day night. He did not feel fattered at
all when, as he says, Dora snatched
his pocketbook containing $125. It was
on this charge that Dora appeared be-
fore Justice Underwood yesterday. She
had her case continued.

A party of small Italian and Slavun-
ian boys we're playing in the vicinity
of the Burlington freight warehouse
at West Sixteenth street ON Sunday,
and annoyed the day Waterman, Frank
Browning One of the boys, Tommy
Wilson, who lives at l01 West Six
teenth street, was playing handball
against the door of the warehouse
when Browning, the Waterman, rushed
out and began firing a revolver at the
boys heels. The report of the shoot
ing brought the Italians and Slavs to
the scene in great numbers, and they
angrily threatened the life of the
Waterman. The crowd was armed
with sticks and stones, and fearing for
his life Browning barricaded himself
in the freight warehouse. He then held
the crowd at bay with his revolver, but
it was some time before quiet was re-
stored and the unlucky Waterman
dared venture forth in search of his
dinner.

Two omeers and a Cont.

When Policeman Alexander Crandall
and Operator John Mccarthy of the
Fiftieth street station left duty the
other morning they we're proud men
and full Of complaisance. They had
done good nights work and were
glad of it. They met Forty-fifth
street goat. The goat charged upon
Mccarthy and did weird things to his
trousers. After that Mccarthy backed
up agaist brick wall and waited until
the patrol wagon came. Crandall mean
while was holding the goat by the
horns. It wasn't the easiest Job on
Forty-fifth street. The goat was feel
ing good. He enjoyed most everything
that happened. Every now and then
he would throw Crandall into the air
Just for fun, and when Crandall came
down the goat would laugh at him.
This happened four times. Then the
wagon came. Twelve policemen got
off. They arrested the goat and sent
for an ambulance for Crandall. Also
they ordered shroud for Mccarthy.
There will be mutton stew on tap at
the Fiftieth street station for several
days. Mccarthy will eat standing up.

Mad From Hunger.

Mrs. George Binder, who would be
called pretty, If she literally had not
been starved for the last three weeks,
was taken to the Detention Hospital
late Sunday night, and as the result Of
worry and her long privations she is
now almost a raving maniac. When
Mrs. Binder was found by the Warren
avenue police she had been without
food for two days. Her two little chill
dren had been fed, while she herself
was starving. Several years ago, it
is said, her husband went to Denver to
find work, and nothing has been heard
of him since. The family lived at No.
146 Washtenaw avenue. 1t was here
that Mrs. Binder was discovered by the
police. She had taken her Bible, and
was preaching to the neighbors when
the ambulance arrived. Mrs. Binder
has sister who lives at No. 102 Fran
cisco street, and the two little children
have been left in her care. The ply
sicians at the Detention Hospital be-
lieve that Mrs. Binders mind will re-
turn gradually now that her hungry
children have been taken away from
her and she is. herself being provided
with food.

c,t,.s buried by sand-storms.

Sven Hedin, the Norwegian traveller,
has discovered on the north side Of
the Kuen Lun mountains, and in the
edge Of the great desert of Cobb, the
ruins Of towns which he thinks were
buried by sand-storms about 1000
years ago. The largest town was near
" two and half miles long, and ca
nal connected it and the surrounding
country with the Kerija river. The
houses had walls Of plated reeds COW
cred with mud and then coated with
white plaster, and on these plaster
walls were well executed paintings Of
men, animals and flowers. Poplars,
apricots and plum trees had evidently
fiourished there before the invasion Of
the sand.

court the other day. The debate as
sumed such proportions that people
came in from blocks around to md out
what was the matter. Dora Parker, a
eolOred woman, was the bone Of cOnten-
ton. Dora was a pretty big bone.
She is seven feet high in her stocking
feet, and she had her shoes on. Attor-
ney Jones declared the woman took
things from trunk. The trouble about
the whole matter was that the trunk
was not her own. THAT woman Is
dyed in guilt! your honor" shouted At
torney Jones, bringing his fist down
with a resounding smack upon the In
laid mahogany desk. Attorney Linder
shook his fist at Attorney Jones, and
jumped up and down in his rage. He
denied that Dora was dyed in guilt,
