 Threatened Witness.

CHILIdcoTHE, Mo, Jan. 26 Charles Stevens, who was acquitted of the mur- der of William Ellis at the present term of the circuit court in Livingston coun- ty, was found dead in the road few miles from his home yesterday morning, having been shot through the head some time Saturday night. Since his acquittal it is alleged that he and others of the family have threatened the lives Of some of the witnesses who testified against him in trial, and the sup position is that some one wns threat ened who wo1lld not take the chances of his own life being taken any longer. It is feared that this is the beginning of feud that may end in the further loss of life, as there are men in either faction that will not hesitate to shoot if they think they are in danger.

What would you do if war should be
declared tomorrow with a European
power? How would it change your
home life, the lives of your brother and
other relatives? How would it affect
your business connections and busi-
ness? What changes would it make
in financial, city, state and national
affairs? 1t is these interesting prob
lens which a writer in the December
Cosmopolitan has undertaken to sketch
under the heading of "A Brief History
of Our Late War with Spaln," at the
same time wildly describing the excit-
ing scenes which would attend the
opening of hostilities. This same
number of The Cosmopolitan has an
article on "The Well-dressed Woman"
by Elsie de Wolfe, contrast of the
characters of Henry George aud Chas.

another place "The Loves of Goethe, f"

Xmas Ladies' Home journal.

The Christmas Ladies' Home Journal
opens with page of pictures of beau
tiful children, selected from thousands
of portraits. The children's holiday
greeting is pleasing introduction to
the excellent articles pertaining to the
great festal season. One of these in
terestingly describes Christmas in the
Palace at Postdam, telling how the
German Emperor and Empress and
the Royal children celebrate the day.
There are also two admirable short
stories, "Christmas at The Holly.
hooks and christmas at The
Trimbles'."
A feature that will arouse wide
spread interest is the first letters of a
series giving "The Inner Experiences
of a Cabinet Members Wife," They
present an inside view of Washington
political and social life, as mas never
before been done in any magazine.
The letters will occasion much surprise.
A reading of the first installment
makes obvious the reason for with
holding the writer's name.

from London, sums up her studies of

Edward w. Box points out how to
make pleasanter the Christmas of the
youth and the aged, and decries the
use of slang by girls, and the habit of
talking about ones ills. The only
correct and authorized version of "The

country appears, with an autograph
note by its famous composer, Sir Ar

Practical articles on Christmas tell
of suitable things to make for gifts,

Mrs. Rorer, in addition to her cooking
lesson, has an instructive article on
candy-making, and another on how to

and in every feature the Christmas

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder. therefore any
pain, disease on Inconvenience mani
Tested IN the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage, is often, by mistake,
attributed TO female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort; The error is
easily made and may be rs easily
avoided. 10 find out correctly, set
your urine aside for twenty-four hours,
n sediment or settling indicates kidney
or bladder trouble. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, and
bladder remedy is soon realized. If
you need medicine you should have
