A STRANGE DISCOVERY.
It Accounts For The Universal Fail
ure TO Cure Dyspepsia.
Physicians Admit the Inefiiciency of
Old Methods and Predict a Great Sue
cess For New Treatment.

That 81 per cent of all the grown peo-
pie in the United States are today suf-
fering from dyspepsia is sufficient proof
of the inefficiency OF all the old treat
son is simple and the medical profession
are wondering why no one has ever
thought of it before. For years they have
been trying to cure this disease with a
combination of remedies given at once.
Every manufacturer of dyspepsia cures
has followed their lead, and although
they all know that there are three dis
tinct kinds of dyspepsia each entirely diff
ferent from the other and that the rem
edy for one completely counteractS the
effect of the other, there has been no at
tempt made TO treat them separately; but
instead, conglomeratio1 of drugs have
been combined and given, the result be-
ing most abject failure to relieve the
sufferer. Another great mistake has also
contributed to the non-SucceSS of dySpep-
STA cures. They all seem to be directed
toward helping the stomach digest the
food-when it has been absolutely proved
that what we eat is not digested by the
stomach at all; this organ only prepares
the food for digestion by the bowels.
These two great errors in treatment are
certainly enough to account for the past
failure of dyspepsia cures but there Il
yet another, which in itself would prevent
the cure of this disease. even If the other
TWO mistakes were rectified. All dyspep-
STA is caused by germs or bacilh. and
although the symptoms may be relieved
the disease itself cannon be cured until
these bacili have been destroyed. Here
tofore nothing has ever been discovered
which would do this without killing the
patient: consequently the physicians have
been helpless, their only treatment being
physic, by which they hoped to get rid
of at least a portion of these germs. Ii
was evidently a hopeless task, for we are
today a nation of dyspeptics, and will
continue so unless the new treatment
proves to be a specific for the disease.
All medical men who have tested
HYOMEI DYSPEPSIA CURE claim the
most remarkable and permanent results.
In the first place it contains the only
germicide known which can be taken into
the stomach without injury. 1t kills at
once all bacilli, thus destroying the cause
of the disease, which could not be done
heretofore. Then, again, unlike any other
cure, it treats each different phase of
dyspepsia separately. which insures i'm
mediate relief and a permanent cure.
Nothing like it has ever been placed on
the market, and nothing like it can be,
as there is but one "Hyomef without
which the cause of dyspepsia cannot be
removed.
Remember, it is guaranteed to cure or
money will be refunded. Sold by all drug
gists or sent by mail. Price so cents.

A SUICIDE.
A Resident of
Blackstone
TAKES HIS LIFE.
Body Found in His Room
By an Only Child.

Blackstone, Jan. 3.-Dwight Ingra-
ham, aged SO, was found dead in his bed
at his home on Main street, this morn
ing, with a bullet wound in his right
temple. He had committed suicide
during the night. Death must have re-
suited instantly. -...
This morning a Spy man saw Mrs.
Ingraham. She told the reporter that
she had been afraid of her husband for
some time, and that on several -occa-
sions he had ordered her out of the
house. Some months ago Ingraham's
aunt, Miss Matte Murphy, died and left
him about $500. His wife said that her
husband had spent considerable money
and was unable to pay some of his
debts. Dependency over these con-
ditions, she thought, led to the suicide.
Mrs. Ingraham stated that last even
ing she was afraid of her husband, left
the house and, accompanied by their
only son, William, aged Is, went to the
home of her sister, Mrs. Thomas Lark,
nearby, and there spent the night -
This morning she arose at $50 O'Clock
and returned to her home to perform
the household duties. Her husband,
who had been pedler of toilet articles,
essences, etc, had not been working Of
late but started in to work Monday
again at his old trade, that of loom
fiXer at the Blackstone cotton mill.
Mrs. tngraham at once upon arriving
at the house, started to prepare her
husbands breakfast, and when it was
ready called to her husband and told
him to come to breakfast
Receiving no reply, she sent her SON
to his fathers room
William found his father with a re-
volver in his right hand, resting on his
breast.
He ran to his mother and told her
what he had seen. She went to her
sisters home and Sheriff Nugent was
summoned. He went to the bed room
and found that the man had shot him
self i'll the right temple Nugent
thought that the fatal shot must have
been fired early in the night, as Ingra-
hams body was cold and the blood
which covered his right temple was dry
and clotted.
Mr. Ingraham was well known here.
He leaves wife, one son William, and
half brother, William 1ngraham, of
PaWtucket, r. l.
