THE OLD WAY.
or Treating Dyspepsia and Indigestion
by Disting q Dangerous and
Useless One.

We say the old way. but really IL is
a very common one at the present time
and many dyspeptics and physicians az
well consider the first step To take in
attempting To cure indigestion to diet.
either by selecting certain foods and
rejecting others or TO greatly diminish
the quantity usually taken, I'm other
words the starvation plan is supposed
by many TO be the first essential.
The almost certain failure OF the
starvation cure has been proven time
and again. but stu the moment dys-
pepsia makes IT'S appearance a course
II dieting Is at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. IL Is fool

ing to n man suffering from dyspepsia.
because indigestion itself starNes every
organ, every nerve and every fiber In
the body.
What the dyspeptic wants Is abund-
ant nutrition which means plenty OF
good, wholesome. well cooked food. and
something TO assist the weak stomach
to digest it. This IL exactly the pur-
pose for which Stuarts Dyspepsia Tab
let's are adapted and this Is the method
by which they cure the worst cases Of
dyspepsia. In other words the patient
eats plenty OF wholesome food and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digests IL

design OF the crucifxion engraved on
his upper arm and they also remarked
it's paculiarity. The design of the tat
tooers used when engraving the sub
ject OF the crucifixion allows sun
burst at the top. Instead of this the
design on the strangers arm was sur
mounted by a collection OF stars. Both
Mr.. Mason and Mr.. Colson remarked
that the stars were hardly In accord
ance with the rest of the design.
The man wished TO have the tattOJ-
ing removed, but did not have money
enough TO pay for having IL done. Mr..
Mason Is under the impression that in
stead the stranger paid him for en-
craving an anchor on one arm, which
one he does not recollect.
Another thing which was remarked
by Mason was the fact that the tat
tooing had evidently been done by hand.
That done by electric tattooers Is read
iy recognized by them, and they can
tell what worker at the trade has done
the design.
This corresponds with the description
OF the design found on the arm OF the
murdered man. His had the stars sur
mounting the crucifixlon instead of the
sunburst and the New York tattooers
remarked the fact that the work had
not been done by electricity. AS TO the

thought that he might have worked the
anchor on the left arm.
Both Mr.. Mason and his friend Col
son had a dim recollection of the man.
and could not remember that he had
mentioned his name or the place from
which he came. They did remark, how
ever. his roughness OF appearance. his
large size and the fact OF his having a
larger girth than chest. His arms were
large, and he had evidently not been a
sailor. The stranger mentioned the fact
that he was going TO New York the
next day, and gave the impression that.
as he had no money, he was going to
work his way by freight trains. He
had travelled extensively and mentioned
the fact that he had been I'm various
parts of the world.
That was all that the two could re-
member OF the stranger. but Mr. Coll
son remarked THAT when ne had read
the description OF the man in the pa
pers and the tattoo marks he had
thought OF the unknown and his visit
TO the tattooer's.

"The pathetic story Of maternal
anxiety, solicitude and gentle pro-
test on the one hand, and of youth
ful infatuation leading to disobedi-
ence and ending in death on the
other, now being rehearsed by a
court in this city, is one to arouse
pity and sympathy and still the
voice of thoughtless censure
There is a degree of infatuation
which renders sensitive, imagina-
tive young girl wholly unable to
take proper care of herself in the
presence of subtle temptation, and
too frequently causes her to chafe
at aud throw off parental restraint.
1t is the pity of humanity when a
nature Of this kind loves unwisely,
since such natures give to the
world, under fortunate conditions,
the most devoted and loyal wives
and the tenderest, gentlest of
mothers. Pity stands with down
cast, tender eyes before the story
of this heartbroken mother, and
censure, shamed into silence, places
its hand over its mouth and retires
from her presence. 1t is not the
province of the public to Judge
certainly not to PREJUDICE the case
in which this story is an incident,
but it may, in all humanity, and
without jeopardy to justice, give
full measure of sympathy to this
mother-the most pathetic sufferer

Withmt IN any way defending
e- u.pi,l In- polys. NJ it mustap-
par to aay unhiased mind that
congress has SGT bal precedent in
refusing to seat Brigham II. Rob.
erts, of Utah. The precedent es
tlalished is nothing more nor less
than that a majority in congress
may refuse, at any time, to seat a
member against whom charges
have been ma ie either in due form
or by public clamor, Senator
Clark, of Montana, was not denied
his seat although there are formal
charges against him of having
bribed members of the legislature
10 vote for his election. But
Clark is millionaire while Rob
erts is poor man which may
make some difference.
Under the constitution and the
laws, congress has the power to
expel, by a two-thirds vote, any
member who is proven to be law
breaker, but it is likely that if this
power was exercised in all cases
in which the laws are broken by
members, in the way of adultery,
b.ib,ry etc, ta,r9 would b. mlny
vacant chairs in congress.
No less an authority than Sena-
tor Edmunds holds that while no
man should be permitted to hold a
seat in congress who is proven
law-breaker, neither can any man
who fills the constitutional require
ments be lawfully denied his seat,
pending an investigation ofcharges
against him.
Roberts should have been seated
and the charges against him should
have been thoroughly investigated
and, if proven true, he should have
been expelled, but to refuse seat
and voice in the House to man
who has been duly elected by the
people of IA sovereign state is to es-
tablish precedent that is danger
GUS to the republic.
1t must be admitted that Rob-
erts' defense is able and open, and,
while his polygamy is obnoxious
and nauseating to right thinking
people, to his credit be it said, that
he gives to his three wives and
their children his name, his protec-
tion and his support, while it has
been openly charged-and never
disproven-that many members of
congress who pose as shining lights
in the affairs of state, who mouth
morality and prate of virtue, keep
more women" than Roberts does,
without the shadow of an excuse
save their own RIGHTEOUSNESS and
lust-keep them to be cast aside
when they fail to please, cast off
in their shame and their helpless
ness, to go from garret to gutter
and on down to a dishonored
grave.
Yes, my son, there are two sides
even to the Rober ts case.

GOVERNOR GEER DENIES

The Union Scout publishes a let
ter from Governor Geer, and ad-
dressed to the editor of the paper,
in which the accusation of Plum
mer is stoutly denied. The gov
erDor explains why he has not SOON
er denied the charge by prefacing
his letter thus:
Your urgent request, in a re-
cent issue Of the Scout, for a word
from me regarding the alleged re-
ceipt' for the sale of an office, un-
der this administration, has reach
ed me, and, coming from my boy
hood home, where my friends are
not merely limited by political lines,
has persuaded me to change my
mind and do what public men can
not and need not often do, take no.
tice Of calumnies. that few of them
ever escape"
He then goes on to brand Plum
mer as rascal and the receipt,
which he claims to hold as for
gerry. The people Of Oregon will
be glad to learn that the governor
has had the manhood to stand up
and defend his character, though
they cannot but censure him for
delaying the matter to this late
date, and will insist upon his pros
ecuting Plummer for criminal IL
bel and thereby fully vindicate
himselfbefore the world. IfPlum-
mer has vilifed the governor and
thereby cast a reflection upon the
state, he is guilty of a crime for
which he should suffer. Let the
governor prosecute him in the courts
and thus forever silence him. If
he does not, Plummer will continue
asserting the genuineness of the ac-
cusation, and the matter will then
rest upon the veracity Of the two
men.--Times- Mountaineer.
