Deaths face Is not a pleasant thing to
look upon, yet thousands of men and vo-
men go about daily with the reflection of
death in their faces. The dull eyes, the
sallow complexion, the sunken cheeks, the
amaciated FORM all tell the story of the in
sidious advances of that imp1acab1e foe
consumption. Doctors have declared that
consumption is incurable. It is not Thou.
sands of consumptives have testified to
their complete recovery after they were
given up by the doctors and all hope was
gone. It is simply matter of going to the
seat of the trouble which is imperfect
and improper nutrition
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
does this. It corrects all disorders of the
digestion. 1t invigorates the liver. It
makes assimilation perfect It fills the
blood with the elements that build new
healthy tissue in every organ of the BODY.
It is the great b1ood-maker and flesh-builder.
It cures 90 per cent. of all cases of consump.
zion. All good druggists sell it.

SOPHOMORE CLASS SUSPENDED.
Trinity College Faculty Deals Out Whole
sale Punishment for Hazing.

Hartford. Conn. March 30.-President
Smith OF Trinity College to-day made an
nouncement OF the decision OF the faculty in
the case OF the bazing OF four freshmen by
members Of the sophomore class. that the en-
tire membership Of the class. about forty. be
SUSPENDED until May 20. The students left for
their homes yesterday'for the Easter vacation.
SO all lie quiet at the college. The announce
ment surprised the alumni. who had hoped
that the matter would be quietly settled by the
reinstatement Of the four sophomores who had
teen suspended for refusing to tell what they
knew about the hazing. LAWYER Percy \. Bry-
ant had ,counse led the sophomores, and had
informed them OF certain rights they had. Tho
suspension will last practically six weeks.
The faculty arrived at its decision at the spe-
cial meeting.held on Tuesday afternoon. At
that meeting a paper was received from the
sorhomore class signed by all OF its members.
in which 1t was said that each member OF the
class WIS individuals guilty OF completely in
the hazinG OF March 81. In addition to this
three of the four sophOmores who had pre-
viously been SUSPENDED for refusing to say
whether they were connected with the. "haz-
ing" appeared individually and voluntarily be-
fore the faculty and said that In signing this
paper they meant thereby &c, answer the Gues-
Smith. The other sophomore In contempt
was not in the city and therefore did not ap-
pear. II is said the faculty made the term OF
suspension short because the sophomores had
made confession In the papet presented that
they were guilty OF the hazing.
