After meals you should have sim
ply feeling Of comfort and satlstac-
ton. You should not feel any
special indications that digestion Is
going on. If you Go, you have indl-
gestion, which means not digestion.
This may be the beginning Of so
many dangerous diseases, that it Is
best to take it in hand at once and
treat it with Shaker Digestive Cor
dial. For you know that indigestion
makes poison, which causes pam and
sickness. Aud that Shaker Digestive
Cordial helps digestion and cures
indigestion. Shaker Digestive C}r-
dial does this by providing the digs ;,
tive materials in which the slcE
stomach is wanting. It also tones
up and strengthens the diges'lys
organs and makes them perfectly
healthy. This is the rationale ct its

A RARE CASE OF CRUELTY
CHAS. MERIT AND WIFE ARRESTED
FOR MISTREATING A CHILD.
The Little Girls Arm BrOken-Henry
Wringer, a Wife Beater, Goes
to the WOrkhOuse.

The attention of the police was called
yesterday morning to a case of cruelty
such as is rarely observed in this civilized
community. Neighbors of Charles Mertz,
who lives on Stringlet street, southeast of
the Belt road near Prospect street. COM
planned of the treatment he and his wife,
Ernistina Mertz, had given Merits seven
year-old daughter Freda~ The child was
found by the neighbors yesterday morning
hiding in the weeds near the house and
was later sent to the police station. DR..
Courtney examined the childs wounds and
sent her to the City Hospital 1t was found
that one of the chids arms was broken
and that she was covered from head to
foot with stripes, apparently made by a
heavy whip or strap The neighbors told
the police that the child had been whipped
the night before by both the stepmother
and the father.
Mertz is a hardy looking German. He is
p cabinet maker in the employ of Sander q
Rocker. His wife conducts small dairy
and delivers milk to few customers in
the city during the morning. 1t was nearly
o'clock yesterday afternoon before they
could be located and arrested. They are
both locked up now at the Jail. Mertz said
he had whipped the child for stealing and
telling lies. He said that when he came
home from work Thursday night his wife
said she had punished the child for taking
some articles out of the dresser drawer.
Mertz says he became angry and whipped
the child again. He declared that he used
only his hand in administering the chas
tisement. He said the girl had got into a
habit of lying and that he was trying to
break her of it; that she took money from
a neighbor and denied 1t.
The girls condition disproves Mertz S
statement that he used only his hand in
furnishing her. DR.. Ferguson, superintend-
ent of the City Hospital. saw the girls
back and he is of the opinion that the
lashes were made with strap. How the
arm was broken is not clear. One neigh
Dor says it was done by Mertz, who in his
anger knocked the child down with his fist
and kicked her several times. Mertz says
the girl slept in the same room with him
self and wife during the night and did not
make any complaint on account of being in
jured
Mertz and his wife are charged with as
sault and battery and cruelty to children.
The case has been called to the attention
of Humane Inspector Orlopp, and lawyer
has been retained to look after the child s
interests 1t may be that steps will be
taken to remove the child from the custody
of the father and stepmother MertZ said
yesterday that he was looking for home
for the child.

CHRONIC WIFE BEATER.
Henry Wringer Given sixty Days for
His Brutality.

Henry Wringer, of Brightwood was SEN
fenced to sixty days in the workhouse yes
terday morning by Judge Cox for whipping
his wife. Mrs. Wringer and her two boys,
aged twelve and fourteen years. told the
court a story of i'll treatment which extends
over a period of years. She said that her
husband was in the habit of beating her
almost every day He was q most ill-tem-
pered man, and would often amuse himself
by whipping. the cat or dog or throwing
stones at the chickens. Sometimes he would
vary the monotony by whipping the chill
dren, but the two boys were away from
home working a large part of the time
and escape his anger The boys said they
would leave the house and go back to find
their father whipping their mother. They
would interfere and stop 1t for the time, but
it would be repeated the next day or per-
haps sooner. Thursday night the elder boy
went to the restaurant where he and his
brother are employed and then returned
to the house to find his mother trying to
escape a beating which her husband was
giving her. He told the police and the
father was arrested.

WARM FIGHT AGAINST CLARK.
Democrats PetitiOning that He BE Re-


The candidacy of Frank S. Clark, Demo-
cratic nominee for the Council in the Ninth
ward is not prospecting The antagonism
in this ward against Clark was very strong
when the primaries were held and he only
succeeded in being nominated by blockading
the polls, so the friends of Henry Robinius,
the defeated candidate, say. on account of
the scandal connected with Clark name IN
the awarding Of the police-patroI contract
the good Democratic citizens or the ward
sought his defeat at the primary, Dut were
unsuccessful. They have been protesting
TO the city committee by letter, and Henry
E. kolker, the committeeman OF the sec
ond precinct, has prepared a reInonStrance
and secured siXty-One signers IN his pre-
cinct. The third precinct secured remon-
STRANGE, with seventy Democrats signing
it, that declared that in addition to not Vot-
ing for Clark they would use all their IN
fiuence to prevent his election.
This state of affairs has put Chairman
Spencer in q quandary and as he has no
authority to take Clark off the ticket and
the defeat of the candidate IS inevitable.
he is in an embarrassing position. 1t is
said that Clark will be persuaded to resign
and this will appear strange when he but
few days ago declared that he had been
Vindicated by the Council and that his own
ward would vindicate him next October.
The Ninth ward is usually doubtful but
Democrats and Republicans maintain that
if Clark does not get off the ticket and
give place to a better man the Republicans
will carry the ward by over so majority

Not Every Day.

The science of knowing how to lose money
is an accomplishment. For instance In the
show windows at Paul II. Krausss haber-
dashery $150 fancy coloTed Madras cloth
and percale shirts are cut to rs cents, and
tho 50-cent ueckwear is reduced to % cents.
These goods are the best, but cash is some
times worth getting, even at big rate of in
terest, and the buyer in this instance gets
the benefit. In word, it is a chance for
gentlemen that does not come every day.
