The Roy Jones Case.

The Rochester Sentinel is authority
for the statement that the Nellie Bur
ger abduction case at Peru, in which
Roy Jones is defendant, will not be
tried during the present term of court,
because Miss Burger is still confined to
her bed Physicians report that her
case is incursble, and that she may live
but short time. She suffers greatly.
The defendant, meanwhile, as stated
from another source, continues to enjoy
himself in jail and spends much of his
time in singing. Apparently he thinks
that all danger of lynching is over, and
that the penalty Of the law will not be
enforced because of the inability of the
principal witness to appear against him.

THE SECOND ENGINE.
Extra Engines Are Used on steep Grades
by Most Railway Companies.

All the larger railroads use an extra
engine to help heavily loaded trains up
steep grades. Through mountainous
country it is impossible for one engine
to pull load up the incIines.
A number of companies are now en-
deavoring by a new survey to avoid the
hills, and will make new road bed to
do away with this extra expense and
loss of valuable running time.
Year in and year out the second en-
CINE has to be employed to assist in
taking the load up the grade. This help
does not make the one locomotive any
stronger. Every time the grade is
reached the wheels refuse to work, and
more strength must be employed to
carry the heavily loaded freight to its
destination. The only way to abolish
the expense is to remove the cause,
make new survey, and go around the
hills.
This is logic.
For years some people have been drug
ging the stomach, with view to assist
ing that organ to digest the food. After
every meal dose of some connection Is
taken to help the digestion of the food
and to relieve the suffering caused by
indigestion 1t has been found, to the
sorrow of these unfortunate creatures,
that the use of the drug, which acts only
as stimulent, did not make the stem
ach any more independent than before,
but, on the other hand, produced a
weakened condition Of the digestive or
gsns and the dose had to be increased
from time t. time. Every time the
grade was reached, the stomach refused
to do it's work unsided and the poor
victim became a slave u a drug.
AS in the example OF the engine, re-
move the cause. Place the stomach in
q natural, healthy condition and it will
do It's work IA nature Intended.
The first cause Of dyspepsia is a weak
ened and impoverished state OF the
blood. Make the blood pure, and the
liver active, and there will be no suffer
Ing from dreaded dyspepsia.
Knox Stomach Tablets are new
combination of thoroughly tried and
tested remedies that purify the blood,
place the liver and stomach in an active,
natural, and healthy state. They cure
dys e STA and all forms of stomach
troubles by removing the cause. A
single box, containing fifty tablets, will
be worth more than gold to the sufferer
This new remedy builds up the system,
and makes of invslids strong, healthy
men and women.
Knox Stomach Tablets are sold by
druggists at fifty c. nts box. If your
druggist does not sell them, send your
address and that of the dealer with fifty
cents to the Knox Chemical Co., Battle
Creek, Mich, and box will be sent
postpaid.

Elected President of State Teachers
Association.

At the final general session of the
Wisconsin State Teachers associa-
ton, held at the Grand Avenue Con-
gregational church, in Milwaukee,
Thursday morning last, John T.
Flavln, the veteran county superin-
tendent Of schools of Dodge county,
was elected it's president for the en-
suing year. superintendent Flavin's
victory Is a notable one, as he was
pltted against some of the most inf1u-
ential educators in the state, but his
exceptionally fine services in the cause
OF education were recognized as en-
titling him to the highest honor in
the gift of the society. Superintendent
Flavin will discharge the delicate and
responsible duties of the position
with fidelity and tact, and the teach
ers-> of Wisconsin will have no cause
to 5roo t4o result Of their action.
We extend to him our sincere cou-
graculations.
The following sketch appeared in
Fridays Sentinel: John T. Flavin,
the new president of the State Teach
ers' association, is a native of Dodge
county, having been born there forty
eight years ago. He has always been
close student, and has read exten-
siV9ly and intelligently. His educa-
tiOi was obtained at district and high
schools, and at the Northwestern uni
versity, where he pursued full course
Of studies. He was principal Of one
of the schools at Watertown when
elected superintendent Of schools of
Dodge county, and is now closing his
twenty-ffth year of continuous service
in that position, which is unprece-
dented in an elective educational Of
fee, not only in Wisconsin, but in anv
state il the Union. On December 9
a reception and banquet was rendered
him by the teachers and citizens of
his county, on which occasion he was
presented with substantial testimo-
Mai of friendship and esteem. He
has been president of the Wisconsin
Teachers Reading circle number of
years. and many times a member of
the board of visitors of the normal
schools. In the performance of his
official duties he enjoys the reputation
of being faithful and impartial, and
has been quite uniformly elected by
thu vote Of all parties. He is re-
garded as one of the best organi-
zef5 engaged in Wisconsin educational
work. -

ODDITIES OF POISONING.
Some May Eat with Impunity Certain
Foods Which Are Rank Poi
sons to Others,

The constitutional differences and
peculiarities which exist among indi-
viduals should always be carefully
watched and considered. One person
can handle poison ivy with impunity
while another is poisoned if only in
the vicinity Of the vine and without
contact. Some members of a family
residing in malarial district will suf-
fer regularly with chills and fever,
while other members will not be at all
affected.
Food that is actually poisonous to
some persons, will not so act on Others
One person may eat all kinds Of green
fruit and vegetables with impunity,
while another person could do so only
at the risk of life. Certain kinds of
fish are actually poisonous to some
people and perfectly wholesome to
others.
It is this peculiar condition of the
system which constitutes the dan
ger point in the individual case and
should be prudently observed by each
one for himself. Intestinal derange-
ments frequently arise from and are
aggravated by certain kinds of food.
Thus a person affected with kidney or
liver trouble should not eat very white
bread since the extreme whiteness is
often produced by the use of alum
with an inferior article of -four, and
as alum is known to be poisonous in
IFS effects on a. SOun6 constitution thiS
is why alum baking powder is never
used by people of Judgment and dis
cretiOn.
More of earthly happiness depends
upon what we eat than many people
realize and it is for this reason that
the different states are one by one
passing pure-food laws.
