STOP THEM.
The Way to Kill the Microscopic
Pests That Make Fever.

Unlike some communicable diseases. typhoid
fever is not "in the air" You do not take the
germs into your lungs. You take them into your
stomach when you drink tainted milk or water.
Where drainage is insufficient and where the water
supply is contaminated, typhoid fever breaks out.
Treatment consists in killing the germs, so that
they canrot multiply in the system. A sound scim-
uIant stops the spread Of the microbes. OF course,
it must itself be free from mpurity. Dutfy's Pure
Malt whiskey meets all the requirements Of the
case, and is therefore prescribed to patti ants who
have been exposed to typhoid fever. tablespoon
full in a glass of water before each meal will be
beneficial in more ways than one. 1t will tone the
system and the glands in the stomach go that the
gastric juices will flow freely upon the food, thus
making digestion complete and prompt.
Many substitutes for Duffy's Pure Malt Nhiskey
are offered. Don't be coa1ed into buying one. In
sist on the genuine Duffys and remember that all
alert druggists and grocers keep it. The govern
ment says that this is the only medicinal whskey
in the country. Hence it bears the proprietary
revenue stamp.

BRIEF IN ADRIAANS CASE
Solicitor General Richards Petition to o. s.
Supreme Court.
Statement of the Case in Which Writ
of CertiOrarf Has Been
Demanded.

Solicitor General Richards of the De-
partment of Justice today asked leave of
the United States Supreme Court to file
a brief in opposition to the petition of
John H. Adriaans for a writ Of certiorarj
in the case which is SO well known in the
District
Mr.. Richards first makes statement of
the case, during which he says the peti-
toner apparently does not know what he
wants Mr.. Richards adds:
1T is insisted that a mere statement of
petitioners case shows 1T to be so ridiculous
that it requires no argument to refute It
this piling Of writs of certiorari one upon
the other, and then, to make the confusion
doubly confusing, to throw in few writs
of mandamus, and at last claim that this
court has q right under the act Of March
3, 1897, by certiorari to bring before 1t a
certain case Of the United States against
Adriaans, pending in the Police Court or
the District of Columbia, raises conten-
ton that falls of itself; and when we find
that the writ of certiorari that is asked for
is directed against the judges of the Court
of Appeals personally, we might well ask,
What is all this, and where is there any
law upon which any such petition can be
based? Possibly we ought to look at the
brief that is filed with the petition, but that
does not throw any light on the subject: 1t
is devoted to the question of whether the
| Police Court erred in its rulings in the case
L
the case of the United States against Adri-
aans had any merits, which it has not, this
court cannot consider them-it has only to
consider whether 1t can act against the
judges of the Court of Appeals and issue
some kind of an order to them.
Action of Court of Appeals.
I'm the first place. everything that was
done by the Court of Appeals was proper;
tLey refused to allow mandarus or GER
tiorari. holding that if Adriaans had any
rights at all he should pursue them by ap-
peal, according to the rule of court and the
statute and, not having done so, he could
have no relief"
MI Richards concludes as follows:
Upon considering the petition filed in
TINS case. with all of the exhibits attached
thereto. it will be seen that the petitioner
not only attacks in scanda lous and libelous
words the attorney of the United States
for the District of Columbia, but also at
tacks one of the judges OF the Police Court
of the District of Columbia. 1t is respect
fully suggested that such a petition as his
should not be allowed 10 remain on the
files of the Supreme Court of the United
states, and that the court should not only
refuse to grant the relief asked by the pc
titioner and dismiss the petition. but should
strike the petition. with its exhibits from
the files of the court and leave the defend
ant, Adriaans, to be dealt with in such
manner as the Police Court of the District
of Columbia and the Court of Appeals shall
see fit

MIR. BAILEY's ANNOUNCEMENT.
Will Not Be Candidate for Democratic
Leader.

Representative Bailey of Texas announced
today that he would not be candidate for
the democratic leadership in the next Con-
gress. He stated today that his decision
was irrevocable, although his friends ap-
pealed to him not to make the statement
The refusal of the democrats yesterday to
follow his lead in the demand for the con-
sideration of the resolution declaring Gen
Wheeler and the members who had accent
ed army commissions had thereby vacated
their seats induced him to make this an
nouncement. Mr.. Bailey will probably make
| a statement later in the day.
Mr.. BaiIey's Statement
| Mr.. Bailey gave the following statement
| of his attitude: Il want it distinctly un-
derstood that l am not actuated by any
feeling of pique or personal disappoint-
| ment, but am proceeding purely upon the
| idea that, as large number of democrats
are unwilling to insist upon an obedience to
perfectly plain provision Of the Constitu-
ton, they ought not to be made responsible
for the leadership of a man who believes
lnat tne Constitution is the supreme law
| or the land, and ought to be obeyed at MI
tlmss and by all men.
i would raise the same question again
ana Will raise it often as it presents
ltself, but when l raise it from nv place in
the ranks of the party l must take the re-
sponslDllity and others will not be COM
PeiIed TO snare the responsibility with me-
L believe that the democrats who voted to
ailoW these military appointees of the Pres
ldent TO retain their seats in Congress
greatly mistake the sentiments of their
democratic constituents. 1t is utterly i'm
possible for me to believe that any man in
thls country Is more popular with the dem
ocratlc masses than the Constitut a.
reverence for which has been the chief
aftlcle OF our faith. l regret the vote al.
~ beyond expression, because I doubt
H. with that precedent established, any ap
pointee of the President will ever again he
denled a right to sit in the House Of Rep
reSentatiVes.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid
Increase of Heart Troubles.
Do NOT BE ALARMED. BUT LOOK FOR THE
CAUSE.

Heart troubles. at least among the Americans,
are certainly inc easing. and while this may be
largely due to the excitement and worry Of Amer
lean business life. it is often the result of
weak stomachs, Of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable: but not one
case In hundred Of heart trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble and
poor digestion is because both organs con-
troled by the sane great nerves. the Sympathetie
and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is affected by the
form Of poor digestion. which causes gas and fer
mentation from half-digested food. There is a
feeling Of oppression and heaviness in the chest
caused by pressure OF the distended stomach on
the heart and lungs. interfering with their action;
hence arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood. making II
thin and watery, which irritstes and weakens the
heart
The most sensible treatment for heart trouble
is to improve the digestion and to insure the
prompt assimilation Of food.
This can be done by the regular after meals
of some safe pleasant and effective digestive
preparation. like Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets which
may be found at most drug stores and which con-
tain valuable. harmless digestive elements In a
pleasant. convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular persistent use
OF Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time will
cure any form OF stomach trouble except cancer
of the stomach
Full-sized packages Of these tablets sold by
druggists at so cents. Little book stomach
troubles mailed free. Address F. A. Stuart Co,
