THE SHAKERS lQEA Of MEDICINE

Now q days when man goes to his doc
tor, he Is usually told that he has some I'M
heard of disease with u long name, and
when he leaves the Office he does not know
whether it is St. Vitus Dance or consump-
ton that is gradually undermining his
health.
1t is therefore refreshing to talk with the
Shakers, for their very simplicity COIN
mands confidence and respect, and we
have the further satisfaction OF knowing
that they have devoted themselves to the
study of disease and Its cure for moro than
II hundred years.
The venerable old man whom the writer
saw was only too glad to discuss his pet
subject. He said that strange as 1t might
seem, very few doctors realized that three
quarters of the most prevalent disease
were all attributable to faulty digestion.
He then went on to say that child of
average intelligence knows that putrid
meat or decaying Vegetables are poisonous,
and must be avoided, and yet these same
foods, even II taken into the stomach in
the freshest possible condition soon de-
compose unless digested aud absorbed.
In such cases the resulting poisons enter
the system, when aches and palms, weak
Hess and debility soon follow as natural
consequence.
1t was recognition Of this that led the
Shakers to devote their energies to the
perfection OF product which would
stimulate the digestive organs and assist
them to perform their proper work.
The first symptom of disordercd diges-
ton is loss of appetite, and the Shaker
Digestive Cordial is wonderfully efficient
in supplying any deficiency in this re-
spuct, at tho same time it relieves all dis
tress after eating. Furthermore, as was
carefully explained by our venerable
friend, it is absolutely harmless.
Better evidence of the Shakers conf
dence In it could not be found, than in
the fact that they have placed 10 cent
sample bottles in the hands Of all druggists
assured that If once tried it will produce
such immediate and married. benefit that
it will be continued

Key. West. Fla. Feb. 1S.-Rscsnt ad-
Wees received here give the following
account of the arrest by the Spanish
pondent Of the New York World:
Scovel arrived on Friday at the Zaza
station Of the railroad from Tunas to
that city. He landed at the port Of
Casilda and went from there to Trim
dad and thence to Manigua for the
purpose of gathering news. When he
reached Zaza he intended to take a
train for Tunas, and board some vee-
sci bound for New York. But as an
order had been issued to detain all
foreigners the chief of the escort Of
the train, lieutenant of the civil
guards named Senior Carlo. at once
arrested him and Francisco Tome, who
had come from Pagabo, where he had
been to oversee an estate partly owned
by him.
Senior Carlo questioned Scovel con-
corning the section of the country
from which he came. Scovel replied
that he came from Central Trinidad,
where he had gone to buy old copper.
Said Lieutenant Carlo in reply:
Seems to me that your face is not
that of buyer of old copper"
"Why?" inquired Scovel
Because" replied Carlo, "Ameri-
cans that travel like you, with clean
shirt and old straw hat and without a
valise, come from the insurgent
camps"
Both were then placed in the Jail,
where Scovel still remains Senior
Tome was released since nothing was
found against him. Mr., Scovel was
confined alone in his CELL and was not
allowed to communicate with any per-
son during the entire day. On the night
of the 7th his testimony was taken.
He was then allowed the privilege of
communicating with Consular Agent
Senior Rafael Madrigal de Lacruz.
Says the correspondent Of La Lucia:
II went early to the jail Mr.. scovel
is young man, well educated, and
very attractive. He praised the treat
ment he had received in jail, the jail
being, he said, palace when compar-
ed with Manigua field. OF the keeper
of the Jail, Sebor Serrano, he says
that 1t would be hard to find his equal.
He requested me to make public the
many attentions he had received from
the military commander of Tunas, Cap
tain Fernando Rueda. Regarding the
Spanish soldiers. he says that he can
only eulogize them, and that they de-
serve all the good things said Of them,
because of their bravery and discip-
line"

The race track at Barksdale, Cecil Co.,
Nd, Is spoken of by the citizens of that
vicinity as great nuisance. Every day
great crowd of rough people assemble to
bet on the races, and rum drinking, swear.
ing and rowdyism prevail to an alarming
extent. The young men Of the vicinity
are corrupted by such conduct and render
ed idle and dissolute. The law of Mary
land is being daily violated by these char
acters and effort is now being made to
bring them to the bar Of justice 1t is to
be hoped the gang will be broken up and
the ringleaders properly punished. Hay
Ing been driven out Of New Jersey, they
should not be allowed to get permanent
foothold in Maryland.
In this connection we will caution the
legislators of Delaware to beware of the
advances Of Billy Thompson and all his
aidcrs and abettors, as 1t said they are
anxious to procure charter for track in
our State, and are willing to pay literally
for the same. 1t is bud enough to put up
with licensed saloons, without adding
horse racing, pool selling and cock fighting.
Our soil should be kept clear of such poll
lutions and our Legislature should prompt

presented.
