THIN CHILD

If a child is thin, let him
take a little of SCOTS emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
Some children like it too
well; begin with a little. A
half or quarter-teaspoonful is
enough at first. if the stomach
is weak; but increase, as you
find the stomach will bear.
The effect is: the little one
takes on strength; gets hungry;
eats and is happy; gets fat-he
ought to be fat-and gets
healthy.

CHARGED WITH THE MURDER.
Mrs. Condin Arrested on the Find
ings of Corouer's Jury.

SoLoMON'S ISLAND. Md, Sept. lion
Wednesday night last. Capt. Lyttleton T.
Condiff, prominent mariner of this place,
was shot to death while asleep in his bed.
His wife was beside him at the time and
their child was in the same room. At first
robbery was thought TO have been the
motive as no weapon was found in the
room. An investigation was set on foot
as the result of which Mrs Condiff was
arrested today charged by the jury of in
quest with having killed her husband
At the inquest the States attorney
produced evidence to prove that Captain
Condiff was shot in the side of his head
next to his wife, and by a pistol held not
more than six inches from his head and
in such a position that ii was very i'm
probable that the shot was fired by rob-
Der. driven to do so to escape, as Mrs.
Condin implied.
Perry Evans. jr., testified that he had
sold 10 Mrs. Condiff's son 32-calibre pis-
toll, the calibre OF the bullet found in
Captain Condiff's head. and such pis
toll was found in the yard OF the house.
The authorities and the people of the ISL
and all believe in the guilt of the woman,
but are at sea as TO the motive. She has
long been known TO be a ravenous reader
Of dime novels and decidedly queer wo-
man. The woman was taken to Baltimore
for safekeeping.

DESERVES 1T.
Remarkable Success of "a New Treat.
ment for Piles.

For many years it has been supposed
that the only absolutely sure cure for piles
was by surgical operation, but the danger
to life and the pain and expense has been
SO great that many thousands suffer for
years rather than submit to this last re-
sort: or they seek the temporary relief in
the many remedies claimed TO relieve piles
and rectal troubles salves, ointments, and
similar simple remedies which give only
slight and very temporary relief.
A new preparation which is painless and
harmless, but which affords immediate re-
lief and in many cases a complete cure in
a very short time is sold by druggists IN
der the name Of Pyramid Pile Cure
II is in suppository form used at night
and its regular use has cured thousands of
obstinate. long-standing cases, and ii seems
to be equally effective in ali the various
forms of piles. whether itching, bleeding,
or protruding.
The Pyramid Pile Cure aliays the in
fammation and intolerable itching. reduces
the tumors. and its astringent properties
cause the enlarged blood vessels to con-
tract to a normal, healthy condition.
a Baltimore gentleman relates his ex-
perience with the Pyramid Pile Cure In
,, these words:
1T affords me unusual pleasure to add
my endorsement to those OF others rela-
tive to your really wonderful pile remedy.

fellow salesman of the Pyramid Pile Cure.

friends

with certainty that IL viii give instant re-
lief and regular use a permanent cure, and
the still further certainty that 1t contains
