Great CONSERVATION was felt by
the friends of NJ A. Hogarty of
Lexington, KY, when they saw he
was turning yellow. His skin
slowly changed color, also his eyes,
and he suffered terribly. His
malady was Yellow Jaundice. He
was treated by the best doctors,
but without benefit. Then he was
advised to try Electric Bitters, the
wonderful Stomach and Liver

Last week we received copy of

views of Boomers Ferry, as well as
its people and business houses, and
certainly will be great drawing

nestled in the mount ains of North

The Boomers Ferry HERALD has
issued an illustrated edition that is
creditable in every way. The pic
lures are local and artistic; the de-

DOGS KILLED BY GAS.
Humane Method of Disposlng Of Them
Adnnted in Chicago.

The Chicago Humane Society has at
last hit upon a novel but effectual
means of disposing Of vagrant ours be-
fore the heat of summer sets in. They
are being gathered up from the streets
and asphyxiated by gas. Calls are re-
sponded to by the Humane society
when made by residents Of the city
who may be bothered by stray dogs.
A number of women, who may be actu-
ated by humanitarian impulses, are CO.
operating with the society to gather
I'D the animals left to wander and
starve along the thoroushfares. 1t Is
largely due to their repeated requests
for a milder means Of destroying dogs
that the new scheme Of determination
by gas has been brought about. They
consider death by shooting an unnec-
essarily painful process. A small
metal tank closely sealed with tight
cover is filled with common illuminat-
ing gas admitted by tube. A small
aperture In the cover permits the air
to be forced out. Into this tank, one
at a time, the dogs are dropped, the
gas is turned on. and in thirty seconds
they are unconscious and in less than
q minute they are lifeless. Two feet
of gas is considered sufficient quantity
to kill dog, and the expense amounts
to practically the same as the bullet
