Cause Of the Indictment.
H The indictment Of Haskell grew
out Of an editorial comment by The
Times ON the conduct Of the Minneap-
oils Trust company as the trustee Of
certain West Pullman bonds, a part of
the assets Of the defunct Guarantee
Loan company. These bonds, The
Times charged, were disposed Of to a
so-called creditors association at 10
cents on the dollar, but five days no
tice being given to the owners Of the
bonds for whom they were held in
trust, and who were scattered from
Illinois to Maine. The West Pullman
property, The Times asserted, was
afterward rebonded for $240, ,0O0 more
than the original debt.

Mrs. Shdy Was Startled,

filled with joy at finding her mother The
rest of the happening is best told in the
mothers own words. She said:
"On the 28th of Sept, 1896, while in the
bloom of health, Beatrice was suddenly and
severely afflicted with spinal meningitis.
Strong and vigorous before, in five weeks
she became feeble and suffered from para
lytic stroke which twisted her head back to
the side and made it impossible for her to
move limb. Her speech, however, was not
affected. We called in our family doctor,
one of the most experienced and successful
practitioners in the city. He considered
the case a very grave one. Before long lit
tie Beatrice was compelled to wear plaster
paris jacket. Prominent physicians were
consulted, electric batteries. were applied,
but no benefit was noticed until we tried
DR.. Williams Pin. Pills for Pale People.
"Busy in my kitchen one afternoon was
startled by the cry of Mamma from little
Beatrice who was creeping towards me. /
had placed her on an improvised bed in the
parlor. She became tired of waiting for me
to come back and made up her mind to go to
me, so her story My Pink Pills made me
walk which she tells everyone who comes to
our house, was then for the first time veri-
fed. She has walked ever since. She has
now taken about nine boxes of the pills and
her pale and pinched face has been growing
rosy, and her limbs gained strength day by
day. She sleeps all night long now, while be-
fore taking the pills she could rest but few
hours at a time" Dr. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People are sold by all druggists.

PEOPLE WHO CAN'T SPELL.
Job Printers and Sign Painters Arc
Great Offenders Against the
PrOprieties of English.

Spelling has been defined as an act
of memory, and many great authors
who could remember all the leading
events of the Peloponnesian war could
not be certain whether it was "princi-
pie" or principal" Outside of CON-
positor or proof reader, who are sup
posed to be infallible, the next best
speller ought to be sign painter,
whose work is set in high places. AS
a matter of fact, he isn't and neither is
job printer. OF course, this excerpts
the high-class men, but the second and
all the lower classes never consult die
tionary and depend on their memory
with disastrous results.
"Their" and "there" are transposed,
the plural and the possessive case are
COMPOUNDED, and occasionally we see
the or n upside down. AS to faults
of phrasing, they are exceedingly COM
mon. Handsome Ladies Suits" and
Superb Boys Pants" doesn't mean that
at all, and who has not smiled at at
"One Dollar Womens Corsets" and
"Cheap Mems Vests"
Even the big tradesmen offend. In a
certain confectionery store, which shall
be nameless, as the novelists say, there
is collection of candy boxes, and the
sign reads: ''These boxes are exact
facsimiles of the eight-inch projectiles
used by our navy, and they are about
one-third actual size
Further along the same street is a
window displaying women's under
wear, and the sign reads: Every
thing in this window for rs cents!"
How surprised the proprietor would be
If some grammarian would proffer him
a quarter of dollar for the lot!
But what shall be said of the sign
that reads: National Shoe Repairing
Co. Look at Our Prices! Only Is Min
utes OF Wait" To substitute "ot" for
"to'' looks as if the painter stood on
his head, but there it is serene tribute
to the ignorance of the painter and pro-
prietor alike.-Chicago Times-Herald.

Every traveller knows that continuous
journeying on the railroad is very apt to
derange the system in some way. In spite
of springs aud soft seats there is a contin-
nous jar and vibration, which acts upon
the nervous system, and produces results
varying somewhat, according to the
strength Of the traveller OF his predisposi-
ton 10 some specific ailment. The most
common consequence OF continuous car
riding is constipation. And this condition
invariably produces headache, and tends
to biliousness. ]. J. Converse, ST. Louis,
Mo-, found a way to avoid the evil effects
of constipation, to which he was subject
when travelling. He carried with him
"the pill that will" cure constipation and
all its sequent sufferings. This is what
he says:
"Travelling on the cars tends to consti-
patton with me, but by using Dr. ]. c,
Ayers Pills moderately, my bowels are
kept in healthy action. They also prevent
headache."-J. J. CONVERSE, st. Louis, Mo.
DR.. Ayers Pills are good for consti patton
under all circumstances and conditions.
They have cured long standing cases after
every other medicine had failed. Rev.
