When wear begins to exceed repair
in your body you are going to fall sick.
The signs of it are: loss of flesh, paleness,
weakness, nervousness; etc. The repair
needed is food. You think you eat
enough, and yet you feel that you wear
out more tissue, energy, nerve-force,
than your food makes for you. The
difficulty is that you do not digest
enough. And that is 80 serious It is
worth sitting down seriously to think
about. II you can't digest what you eat,
take few doses of Shaker Digestive
Cordial. The effect Of it will be to in
crease your flesh and make you feel
stronger. You won't fall sick. Proof

About year ago he went to New Mexico
in the hope of improving his condition,
but the warmer CLINE only prolonged his
life but short time and several weeks
ago Mrs. Wsrstler brought her husband
home, where, surrounded by his family,
he entered deaths portals yesterday.
Mr.. Warstler was son of Jonas and
Elizabeth Warstler, and grandson of
Jacob and Mary Warstler, who located in
Salem, Ohio, in 1900. Shortly after, the
family removed to what is now Plain
township, Stark county, where log
cabin was erected. The cabin was burn
ed by the Indians when the father return
ed to Salem to bring his family to the
new home. Nothing daunted, he again
built cabin and lived on the farm until
his death. Jonas Wsrstler, tie father OF
the subject of this sketch was born on his
fathers farm. He married Elizabeth
Ringer in 1888, and to the union ten
children were born. One of them,
JONAS W. WARSTLER,
was born in Marlboro. township, Septem.
ber II, 1874, and was therefore SO years
and months of age. The July before he

ment, among them being Resaca, Knox,
vile, Buzzards Roost, Franklin, and
many others, in which he distinguished
himself as steady fighter for the cause
against the rebellion. After the war he
went to school one year, and on October
30, 1868, married Miss Henrietta L. Geib

five Of whom survive, three daughters
and two sons. After his marriage Mr.
Warstler taught school and farmed until
the fall of 1877, when he formed par
nership with his brother-in law, d. W.
Snellenberger, and operated general
store at Marlboro, continuing until about
1884, when Mr.. Snellenberger retired
The store has since been owned by Mr.
Warstler and his son Edward and IL
known as progressive country store.
In 1887 Mr.. Warstler was elected 9
Stark county commissioner. He served
two terms Of three years each. He was 6
Republican in politics and occupied
several township offices during his career

short as to give him hope that he might

Judge McCarty stated that it required
more than an ordinary criminal to forge
paper to such an amount and have it
pass unquestioned. 1t takes a man who
has character and standing to successful
ly forge such. paper.
"Mr. Tyler" said the Judge, "let me
ask how.old you are. have heard vari-
Gus answers to that question"
II was 70 years old on the 10th of Jan
uary," replied Mr.. Tyler in q hoarse
voice.
"I have taken into consideration your
age" continued Judge McCarty land
that you have pleaded guilty, thus saving
the court OF Stark county time and ex-
pense. 1t is the sentence Of the court
that for the first indictment you be i'm
prisoned in the penitentiary, at hard
labor for three years, and that you pay
the costs Of prosecution. For the second
indictment it is the sentence of the court
that you serve two years at hard labor
in the penitentiary and that your pun
ishment for the second offense commence
at the expiration of the first"
Mr.. Tyler received his sentence without
a noticeable change of expression, and
took his seat

Immediately following the sentence of
the court, Mr.. Tyler was escorted to one
of the private rooms in the court house.
In company with his sqn,in-law he wait
ed for a cab which had been ordered to
convey him to tie station, all prepara-
tions for his departure having been made
Friday.
A crowd of curious spectators sur
rounded the door at the sheriff's office,

departure to enter upon the execution of
his sentence. A cab received Mr.. Tyler
and Sheriff Zaiser at the west side of the
court house at Court street, and thus the
crowd was avoided. Mr. Tyler was driven
to the G. G. & S. station, followed by
few friends with whom he conversed un-
til the train arrived. He was accom-
panied to Columbus by Sheriff zaiser

Fatal Accident.

Last Wednesday, on the farm Of
w. r. Moody, about four miles
west of Colbert, his little 13-year-
old son, named Andrew j., met
death in a most peculiar manner.
The little boy was playing alone in
big heap of seed cotton, digging
hole in the center OF the pile,
and in some way fell in the hole,
head downward, leaving nothing
to show but his heels. When dis
covered, possibly an hour later
by his little brother, life was en-
tirely extinct, caused by suffoca-
tion. Arrow.

Where Do We Come In!

After all the efforts which have
been made to pass treaties and
prepare this country for a more
prosperous state of affairs, it be-
gins to dawn on us that even if
the treaty does become the pre-
vailing law and the most favorable
allotment should be made under
the treaty, that even then the con-
dition of the people within the
territory who are not interested in
the ownership of the lands, will
not in any way be improved. The
man who is a land renter here is
now, and will remain, in about the
same condition as in the states,
with the exception, that in the
states he can send his children to
school at the public's expense.
Here he cannot send them at all,
unless he dwells within the limits
of some incorporated town which
provides for free schools. This
item alone will serve to build up
good towns and even cities in
many portions of the territory; but
it can never be of advantage to the
real poor tenant-which class are
largely in the majority in this
country, and their numbers are in
creasing rapidly-whose children
are growing to maturity without
any opportunity whatever for en-
education. 1t is the duty of every
lover of liberty to cry aloud in be-
half Of these poor little children,
scattered all over this territory.
They are here, and it matters not
how they got here. The govern
ment is responsible for their edu-
cation. 1t is a useless waste of
philanthropy to go beyond the
seas TO bestow aims and educate
the ignorant, so long as they
abound in such abundance here

The effect the ratification of the
Greek treaty will have upon the
Cherokees is largely a matter of
speculation. The Cherokees will
hardly consider that fact a plaus-
able and sufficient reason why they
should do likewise. Indeed it
may soon appear to be a substan-
tial reason why they should not do
as have done the Creeks. The as
sertion that the Cherokees are
ruined on account of being the last
of the five tribes to make terms
with the government is of 2
weight and worthy of no consideE.
alton. There have been, and ars
still the very best of reasons why
the Cherokees have not agreed
with the Dawes commission. If
the same conditions are still in
sisted upon now that have been
urged heretofore, the Cherokees
can do nothing less than again re-
fuse to treat and fall back upon the
solemn pledges OF the government
that they shall not be despoiled of
their rights whatever they may be.
Instead of the ratification of agree
ments by the other tribes of the
territory being a clinching argu-
ment why the Cherokees should
hasten to make a similar agreo-
ment the reverse may prove 70 be
the fact. The thing for the Chero-
KEGS to do now is to watch the
workings of these other agreements
and 10 profit thereby. They
should at least try TO avoid the
same mistakes made by the Choc-
taws, the Chickasaws and the
Creeks.
