HERE AND THERE.

AsiswellKnown by all those who have
had chance to know, there is no reg
ular fee charged by the minister who
makes two loving hearts as one. His
fee is that which the groom sees fit to
give him, and consequently there are
often many peculiar payments made,
1t has been the case where the fellow
gave the preacher the hard luck story
after the ceremony. And the poor
preacher can't sue for damages.
II law could be made setting aside
n stipulated fee, many a clergyman
would avoid perpleXlng situations
True, they might not get the fat roll
which sometimes falls to their lot If tho
law said so much shalt thou go, and no
more, but taken In all It would be the
best in the end. An instance of thn
perplexing situation comes from down
in Boone county, In the lower part OF
the state, at a wedding which occurred
there last week. II was none OF those
kind of affairs where the bride wore
tulle dress on tralne, and carried ilow-
ers. nor did the groom wear the con-
ventl0nal black. II was simple we'd

THEY RlDlcUlE 1T.
Many People RidicuIe the Idea of an Absolute Cure For Dyspepsia and Stomach Troubles RidicuIe, However, is no Argument, and Facts Are Stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common and in many eases so obstinate to cure that people are apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claiming to be radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia and .ndi- gestion. Many such pride themselves on their acuteness in never being hum bugged, especially on medicines.
 Ths fear of being humbugged may be carried too far; so far, in fact, that many persons suffer for years with weak digestion rather than risk little time and money in faithfully testing the claims of a. preparation so reliable and universally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
 Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly different in one important respect from ordinary proprietary medicines for the reason that they are not a secret pat ent medicine, no secret is made of their ingredients, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive fermens, pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bismuth, hydrast.s and nux. Tey are not cathartic, neither do they act powerfully on any organ, but they cure indigestion on the common

PRISON BARS TURNED AGAINST HIM.
Frank Hartman So Loathsome That the Pris-
 oners Spurned Him.

Many times a man is turned away from home. Without money or friends a man is turned from every door, but it is seldom in the course of human ex- istence that the prison bars are turned against anyone.
 This is peculiar occurrence that has come about in the miserable existence of Prank Hartman, a youth not far passed IF years of age. Hartman was arrested in a saloon and on account of his tender age was fined $7.50.
 He was then taken to jail, but was later discharged. Scrawled on the dock t were the words: Discharged because of his body being full of vermin.'
 Hartman was loathsome sight and the prisoners spurned him as they would a ieper.
