Bach Trade or Occupation Has It's Special
Disease.

1t is well known among medical men that
certain diseases arc more readily developed
in certain occupations than in others That
each occupation has its attendant physical
weakness Engineers, railroad men and
similar occupations suffer mostly from kid
ney troubles and men who are often exposed
TO the weather suffer from rheumatism,
while clerks and professional mon, in fact
the army of people whose business keeps
them indoors are oftentimes great sufferers
from piles and constipation. In this con-
nection the following letter is of interest to
people whose occupation will not allow suf-
fcient outdoor exercise.
Mr.. A. L. Calhoun, notary public and
jeweler and matchmaker of Circleville, W.
Va. writes as follows:
/ had been a severe sufferer from piles for
years and had tried many remedies with but
little benefit, when about three years ago l
saw the Pyramid Pile Cure advertised and
sent for it.
was badly afflicted when got them, but
after only two applications the piles dis
appeared and from that day to this / have
never felt a symptom of the disease.
feel that I cannot recommend them too
highly to sufferers from piles.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is free from cocaine,
opium or any mineral poison, absolutely safe,
pleasant and painless sold by druggists at so
cents per package. If there is any constipa-
ton the Pyramid Pills should be used with
the pile cure The pills are 25 cents per
package.
Any druggist will toll you that the Pyra-
mid is the best known and most successful
and popular pile cure ever placed on the
market and its reputation as a safe and radi-
cal cure has only resulted from the personal
recommendation Of people who have been
cured of this distressing ailment.
Send to Pyramid Co., Albion, Mich, for
valuable little beck on cause and cure Of
piles.

man giving the name of Morris b.
Case residence as Ohio, on the charge
Of compounding liquor without a Ii

If they had not seen the compounding

Annoying ucr-Thc Suicide Prof
liUate Patent Attorney,
Washington, June S.-The throng Of
government clerks and others hurrying
up Pennsylvania avenue yesterday
were startled bv the attempted
murder of Miss Dorothy e. souires
and the suicide of Charles Barber
a patent attorney. who had gained
much notoriety of late by his eccentric
actions. Barber shot Miss Squires and
then turning the revolver on himself
put a bullet through his brain, causing
almost instantaneous death.
Miss Squres was shot In the back of
the head. At the Emergency hospital,
whittier she was taken, it is said the
wound probably win not result seri-
ously.
Barber had considerable of a patent
practice, but had been growing more
and more eccentric for several years.
and of late many of his friends thought
him mentally unbalanced. Miss Squires
formerly worked for him as a stem
ographer and upon leaving his employ
he annoyed her with his attentions
threatening 10 luJult Atl IL bllt MOulu
not permit him to call.
Finally the affair became so serious
that she had to appeal to the courts for
protection, and he was placed under
bonds to keep the peace. He seems not
to have desisted, however, for since
then the girl had received several
threatening letters from him, in the
last Of which he announced that he
a of ttrI, 1,.F
would regret.
Barber was a hard drinller and an
lnveterate gambler, who made several
futile efforts to reform at the instance
of friends who recognized his bsffiiant
talents but also his lack of steadiness
and purpose in life He left several let
ters showing that he had premedltated
yesterdays tragedy. He loved motor
lety. In statement to the public, dated
Sunday he said

Barber then complains that friends
of Miss squires had influenced her
against him, and continues:

Tickets are transferable.

The Supreme court Of Maryland has
decided that the purchaser of a berth
or section of sleeping car has the
right to give another person the use
thereof if he leaves the car before it
reaches the end of the trip for which
the berth was bought. A passenger
secured a section, rode in it for part
of the trip and then sold his section
ticket to another passenger, he leaving
the train. The second purchaser was
refused the use of the section by the
conductor of the car and was elected,
whereupon he brought suit with the
above result.

A NATURAL LIFE BELT.

Air Injected Under the Skin WIN Float
a Man.
DIR. chneider-Preiswerk, in Basic,
has discovered novel means of saw
ing life in marine accidents, which if
generally used will probably lessen
greatly the number of lives lost by
such accidents, says the Philadelphia
Record.
His invention has been pronounced
very important by the French Acad-
envy of Sciences, which in one of their
last meetings listened very attentively
to lecture by DR.. LanverauX upon the
new invention. The inventor does
away with all artificial belts and other
floating appliances; he proposes to in
fate the cellular texture beneath the
human skin on the breast, which, if
filled with air, forms natural pneu-
matte belt, by the aid of which one
may not only float himself but even
support another body. The idea is said
to be perfectly practicable. 1t has been
proved that a man weighing 100 pounds,
whose specific weight is between LOB
and 10, whose head may weigh seven
pounds, needs only about 200 cubic
inches of air within his body in order
to float with the head out of the water.
This amount of air is easily inserted
into this hollow space beneath the
skin with DR.. Schneider's aseptic syr-
inges, which will in one injection in
fate from twenty to thirty-five cubic
inches OF air. The introduction of the
point, which is only two millimeters
thick, will hardly be felt. Such a pump
is not even necessary. It is much sim
pier to use a little apparatus, also pat
ented by DR.. Schneider, which consists
of a hollow needle, thin rubber hose
eighteen inches long, into which this
needle is inserted A little aseptic
cotton placed into the open end of the
rubber hose is all that is necessary.
The skin is simply raised, the hollow
needle introduced into it, and then the
other end of the rubber hose is taken
into the mouth and the mans own
breath blown into it. Two deep res
pirations, which are blown into each
side of the breast, will be sufficient to
float man, however heavy.

why He Stole the Turkey.

Uncle Cicero Jones, an Atlanta dark

day. In testifying in his own behalf,
the court asked him how to explain
that point ''Yo' see heah, jedge, it's
