it to the face, keeping it there for at least
90 minutes. Then dry the face very gen.

Now Recognized as a Cause OF Serious
Disease.
Acid dyspepsia, comonly called heart
burn or sour stomach, is form of indi-
gestion resulting from fermentation of
the fcod. The stomach being too weak
to promptly digest it, the food remains
until fermentation begins, filling the
stomach with gas, and a bitter sour
burning taste in the mouth is often
present. This condition soon becomes
chronic and being an every day occur
renee is given but little attention. Be-
cause dyspepsia is not Immediately fa-
tai, many people do nothing for the
trouble.
Within a recent period a remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
and Is now becoming rapidly used and
prescribed as a radical cure for every
form of dyspepsia
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold
by druggists everywhere at 80 cents

Stuart Co.. Marshall, Mich, and while
1t promptly and effectually restores a
vigorous digestion, at the same time is
perfectly harmless and will not injure
the most delicate stomach, but on the
contrary by giving perfect digestion

Sacramento High School Team Out

The local team outplayed their oppo-

one into a goal. while the boys from
the College Town kicked two goals from
touchdowns, giving IA points to Sac
ramento against Berkeley's H. Both
the latter teams touchdowns were Sc
cured from quarterback kicks. plays
which fooled the Sacramento lads most
beautifully.
Throughout the game the Berkeley
territory was continually invaded by
the local team, although the game was
quite openly played, a number of long
runs being credited to both Sides
Sam Dickson, who captained last
years local team, played with the boys
from Berkeley. He said the Berkeley
team was not so strong as it had been
during its games in Academic League,
all their regular backs being substi-
tuted by other players. However,
judging from the way the Berkeley men
played back of the line, their substitutes
know something of the game. In fact.
all their material gains came from that
part of their team.
The Sacramento team will go over to
Woodland on New Years Day and play
the High School team there. The boys
will therefore put in their holidays
practicing, and Captain Canon has or
dered them to appear for daily exercise
during the week.

The BULLET FLATTENED OUT.
WHY DANIEL DEVINE DID NOT
KILL HIMSELF.
While in q Despondent Mood He
Made the Attempt on
Saturday.

About 3 o'clock on Christmas Day
Daniel j. Devine, adopted son Of the
late Martin DeVine, who died in Utah
N 1872, turned a revolver against his
head in what proved to be a vain at
tempt to solve the problem of life be-
yond the grave.
Young Devine, who before his adop-
ton was James J. Donohue, is said to
have been of wavering, uncertain con-
dition Of mind, and at one time was
treated at an asylum in Utah, from
which he was discharged as cured.
Yesterday afternoon the young man
entered the place of Trustee Devine in
the alley between Seventh and Eighth,
K and L streets, and talked for some
time with the latter, who invited him
out to dinner, and supposed the invita-
ton would be accepted. The Trustee
had been gone only a short time when
a shot was heard in the shop. Officer
Maley was in a barber shop near by
at the time, and reached the scene with
one side of his face shaven and the
ether covered with lather
The officer found the young man ly-
ing on the floor with a revolver by his
side and a scalp wound over the right
ear, where the bullet had struck. The
skull, however, had proved too thick
and the bullet had flattened out until
it assumed the shape and thickness Of
a silver quarter, but had done appar-
emily but little damage The young
man was taken to the Receiving Hos
pital, where he was attended by AS
sistant City Physician Ogden, and yes
terday morning was removed to the
County Hospital.
When asked by a Record Union" re-
on his life, Devine replied that he had
been in poor health for long time,
was out Of employment, and in fact was
hardly able TO work If he had employ
ment. He said the doctors could not
help him, and he had no desire to live
in a hospital.
IF that shot had done it's work." he
added, II would be better off"
No words of encoura cement or ad-
vice seemed to make much impression
on him. His mind seemed clear enough,
but he was evidently too respondent to
be able TO look on the bright side Of
life. He said he had no blood relatives
on this coast, but had some in the East
His foster mother died about a year
ago, and her loss is said TO have af-
fected him deeply. He recently passed
an excellent civil service examination
for a position IL the Postoffice Depart
ment, and has at times acted as spec
ial delivery messenger for the local Of
fee. His friends feel certain that when
he attempted to commit suicide he was

Stoves Giving Ont Cold.

Professor William NJ. Watts, Of Still
Pond, has novelty In the form OF
cold stove. The stove is for use In the
heated months of summer for reducing
temperature, just as stoves heated by
fire are used to raise the temperature
in winter. By the use of salt, small
quantity of ice and a patented chemi-
cal the most intense degree OF cold IS
secured. So great is the cold that it
is as dangerous to touch this cold stove
when in operation as it would be to
place the hand on a fire stove at hlgh
degree of heat. The skin Is instantly
taken off, and painful injuries are the
result of the slightest contact. Pro-
lessor Watts states that during the
hottest weather the temperature OF
room may be run down and made
pleasant by the use Of this novel de-
vice. The new process was discovered
by a college mate of the teacher OF thu
Still Pond school. The cost OF opera
ting the stove is very slight.-Chester
