We all know that any tired muscle can
be restored by rest. Your st mach is a
muscle. Dyspepsia is its manner of saying
i am tired. Give me rest" To rest the
stomach you must do its work outside of
the body.
This is the Shakers method of curing in
digestion, and its success is best attested by
the fact that these people are practically
free from what is without doubt the most
prevalent of all diseases. The Shaker Di-
gestive Cordial not only contains digested
food which is promptly absorbed without
taxing the tired digestive organs, but it is
likewise an aid to the digestion of other
foods in the stomach. A 10 cent trial bottle
will convince you of its merit, and these you
can obtain through all druggists.
Laxol is the best medicine for children.

FROM
1OCKJAW !
William Smith Relieved of Intense
Suffering by Death.
RESULTED FROM A SHOT WOUND
The Victim Paid Little Attention to the
Injury at First and Blood Poisoning
Set in, eliminating in the
Dreaded Tetanus.

William Smith, son Of Albert Smith, out
side foreman at the Indian Ridge c%olliery,
yesterday from lockjaw, s-uperinduced
by blood poisoning following a pistol shot
wound in the hand.
The deceased was 20 years of age and left a
wife and three children. The youngest
child is five weeks old and the eldest about
three years. The family resides at No. 22O
North Jardin street.
Smith was employed as carpenter boss at
the Indian Ridge colliery. Last Monday,
during spare time at the c%olliery, he was en-
gagged in cleaning a revolver and did not
notice that there was a blank cartridge in it.
The weapon was discharged and Smith re-
ceived a wound in the palm of the right
hand. As the cartridge had no bali in it
Smith paid little attention to the injury.
The hand injured was the same one from
which Smith lost four fingers about a wear
ago by having it caught by a circular saw at
the same colliery. During Monday night
Smith experienced considerable pain in the
injured hand, but he did not become alarmed
and did not suffer much again until last
Saturday morning, when he experienced a
sharp pain in the back. He continued his
work at the colliery during the day, not
withstanding the pain increased and seemed
to gradually extend to his head. At
about $3.50 in the afternoon the pain seemed
to lodge in his jaws and they appeared to
gradually become rigid. When called to
supper Saturday night Smith could neither
eat nor drink, and it was with difficulty that
he moved his jaws sufficiently to speak. Dr..
J. S. Callen was called and prescribed for the
case. Saturday night Smiths condition be-
came worse and he was unable to take his
medicine. Yesterday morning Drs. Callen and
Hamilton performed an operation on the
hand, but this failed to nave the desired eff
feet and at 1920 last night the victim died in
terrible agony. He suffered from frequent
and severe spasms. The funeral will take
place on Wednesday morning. Services will
be held in the German Catholic church.

At about eight o'clock Saturday evening.
William Taylor, the driver for the Columbia
Hose Company, was standing in front of the
Borough building when he observed two
small objects moving in his direction along
Jardin street with almostlightning rapidity.
As they drew near Taylor saw that the first
object was a wild rabbit and it was being
chased by a small hound. Both were show
ing signs Of fatigue, Taylor followed them
to the corner of Jardin and Cherry streets,
where the rabbit took refuge in a coal hole
Of a dwelling. 1t was almost exhausted
and Taylor had no trouble in capturing it.
The hound was too tired even to bark. It
chased the rabbit from the mountain and it
was the first rabbit chase seen in the streets
Of town for many years. Taylor stewed the
rabbit yesterday.

1t was thought that the present condition of
things at the mines-six days a week-would
continue until the new year, but a slump.in
the market is threatened. A New York dis
patch says There is an underlying tone of
Generalization in the anthracite coal trade
attributable to several causes, and the result
will, it is thought, be a break in prices before
cold weather sets in. The present condition
of the market is attributed largely to over
production, coupled with the mild weather
so far this season. The output during
August, September and October was greatly
increased over that of the corresponding
months last year, and in the aggregate it
amounted to about 5000, 900 tons, an increase
for the three months of $50, 900 tons, though
this left an apparent shortage at the end of
October Of $1,000 tons as compared with
the ten months of 1896. The situation has
been canvassed by the anthracite coal barons,
and efforts will be made to harmonic con.
hicting interests. If these efforts fail n
break seems certain"

Henry Martin, the North Main street
saloOnkeeper, went to Philadelphia this
morning TO make arrangements for an ampu-

Of that city. About three years ago Martin
had the limb squeezed between a car and an
engine at the Kohinoor colliery and since
that time has undergone several operations.
Gangrene has now violently attacked the
limb and it will probably be amputated at
the knee.
