clans Of thai city. The doctor and his

PECULIAR POIS0NS.
IN THE HUMAN BODY.
The Result of Imperfect digestion of
Food.

Every living thing, plant or animal, con
tans within itself the germs Of certain decay
and death.
In the human body these germs OF disease
and death (called by scientists rtomaiucsl,
are usually the result Of imperfect digestion
Of food the result of indigestion OF dy,.

The stomach, from abuse, weakness, doe.

Bad digestion iuitates the heart, causing

Poor digestion poisons the kidneys cau,-

And this is so because every organ every

ton shows itself not only in loss of appetite
and flesh, but in weak nerves and muddy

The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is sound stomach.
Weak stomachs fail to digest food properly,
because they lack the proper quantity Of
digestive acids (lactic and hydrochloric) and
products; the most sensible rem
edy in all cases of Indigestion is TO take after
each meal one or two of Suart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, because they supply in a pleasant,
harmless form all the elements that weak
stoinachs lack.
The regular use Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets will cure everyf form ofstomach trouble ex-
cept cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood,
strong nerves, a bright eye and clear complex

CONNECTICUT MYSTERY DnEpENS

The supposed Murdered Woman Re-
turns TO HCr PARENTS Home.
Middloboro Depot Mass. Sept. 19.-
Marion Grace Perkins, who was posi-
lively identified 10y her father and her
dentist as being the murdered girl
found at Bridgeport, Conn.;S Is alive.
Her lover, Charles Bourne. who was
alleged to have been implicated in the
crime as the result of her alleged con-
dition, is with her. The couple return
ed Saturday night and as they re-
turned the body of the murdered girl
was en- route to this town, and the
grave i'm which the supposed body of
Miss Perkins was to have been buried
yesterday was already dug. The chief
Of police of New Haven believes the
dead body is that OF New Haven girl.
After much telegraphing and tele-
phoning member of the Bridgeport
police yesterday gained possession Of
the womans dismembered body. The
box was taken to Bridgeport last night.
Notwithstanding the statement made
Saturday night that Grace Perkins had
been married to Charles Bourne, the
Perkins family today are not so sure,
and are inclined to doubtit.
This is probably due not only to the
positive statement Of the Bournes that
such a marrigae has not taken place,
but to the reticeuce of Grace herself.
She absolutely declines to have any
thing to say on the subject nor Will
she disclose anything connected with
her trip or her whereabouts during her
two weeks absence. 1t is known that
she went to Onset, but since leaving
there even her family are ignorant OF
her movements up to Saturday noon,
when she left Providence for Middle
bOrO.
Miss Perkins appears very much un-
concerned regarding the whole affair,
and looks on it all as more of a joke
than anything else. She kept indoors
all day, and although the house was
well surrounded by curious people, few
caught even a glimpse OF her.
The Bournes are even closer mouthed
than the Perkins farAIy, although de-
nying emphatically that the two are
married. The family have intimated
that at the proper time a statement will
be made as to Charles Bourne and
Miss Perkins.

Naples, Sept. ia state Of gloomy
apprehension prevails among the pop
ulation regarding the eruption of Vesu-
vius, which is hourly becoming more
active and menacing. Streams Of lava
are spreading in every direction. The
most threatening Of these flows into
the Vedrino valley, which is almost
filed. The observatory, which origin
ally stood at a height Of so meters, is
now only q meters above 'he sea level,
owing to the sinking of the ground.
Seven new craters have formed around
the central one, and this has not tended
to diminish the fears formerly felt.
