BRAM'S EXCEPTIONS.

Fighting for His Life.
They Object to Evidence Admitted

A Fight that Seems Almost Hopeless Though
Certainly Obstinate.

Boston, May 23.--Late this afternoon,
the exceptions in the Bran trial were
placed on file in the United States
court. The exceptions are quite
numerous and cover almost the entire
ground traversed during the trial.
The admissibility by the court Of Ger
tain evidence to which the defence OBJ
jected as well as the rejection of other
evidence offered by the defence are
among the grounds set forth by Bran $
counsel why he should be given a new
trial.
The challenge to the array, which
was argued at the very opening of the
trial, and before the jurors were drawn,
is also a prominent feature in the rea-
son assigned why new trial ought t.
be granted
1t was argued at that time that the
proper quota of jurors was not drawn
in certain towns, and it was argued
Chat this of itself was sufficient to
vitiatc the proceedings.

STRENGTH FROM FOOD.
hut THE FooD Must he DlGEsTED

There IS no way to get strong without
food. Food is the strength maker.
just enough food, properly digested,
makes the strong and healthy man or
woman. Too much, too little, or even
the right quantity, not digested, will make
anybody weak
The beginning of all sickness is weak
ness. The beginning of all weakness is
indigestion. So to keep strong look after
your digestion. That is the most impor-
tant point of all.
When your food ferments in your stom-
ach and forms gas, causes dizziness,
nausea, bad taste, sick headache, full
feeling, nervousness, irritability, etc.,
you have indigestion. You are losing Il
part of your life. Every hour you are
sick causes loss of strength.
The way to cure it is to take Shaker
Digestive Cordial. A few doses will re-
lieve. If you take it long enough you
will regain the strength you have lost.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made from
herbs and plants by the Shakers of Mount
Lebanon. 1t contains very strong diges-
tive tonic properties. 1t creates strength.
1t makes your food make you strong and
bright and healthy. 1t clears your COM
plexion and strengthens your body
against disease. If you want to get
strong and well, try a bottle.
Sold by all druggists at 10, %, 50 cents
