THE WATCH AND RING.
Mr.. Sanders Tells How He Happened TO Give
Them to Miss Coleman.
Especial Dispatch to Tho Times.


LANCASTER c.. IL, VA, March u
The Coieman-Sanders breach OF promise
suit drags along slowly. Court had not
been III session before this week, owing
to the sickness Of a juror. The attend
ance is small.
Mr.. Sanders the defendant, took the
witness stand this morning, and when
court adjourned this afternoon he was
being cross-examined. He will testify
again tomorrow.
Mr.. Sanders testimony was to the ef-
feet that he became engaged to Miss
Coleman. by letter, on February l. 1888.
On the twenty-Second OF that month he
visited her in Princess Anne county. where
she was teaching school. and presented
her with n diamond ring and gold watch,
which had been placed in evidence by the
plaintiff The watch and ring we're the
same that he had given another young
lady to whom he was at one time en-
gagged and who had discarded him and
returned to him the articles, on the 9Th of
January previous. He had not intended
to present Miss Coleman with the ring
and watch, but he had never removed
them from his pocket, until this occa-
sion. since they were returned TO him.
It will be remembered that Miss Cole
man testified that when Mr.. Sanders
placed the ring upon her finger and pre-
sented her with the watch. he informed
her that he had purchased the sad ar
ticles for her in Chicago.

. D. BotkiE, Congressman-at-L Large.

~ CONGRESSMAN BOTkIN is ono OF
~ the most influential and best-known
men in the State of Kansas. Whatever
he may say on any subject Will be &C
cepted by the people as the truth. SO
famous a remedy as Peruna could not
have we'll escaped the attention of so ia
nous a man. He not only has heard of
the remedy, but he has used it and was
relieved of an affection of twenty-five
Years standing Peruna is the one in
ternal remedy that cures chronic catarril
1T cures catarrh wherever located This
is fact that the people are rapidly ind
ing out, but there are still a large multi
tude who need to know it.
Mr.. Frank Richter, of Winona. Mimi,
SAYS in a letter to The Peruna Medicine
Company:
'As a remedy for catarrll. ] take
pleasure in recommending Peruna for
catarrh of the stomach l know what 1t
is to be afflicted with this awful disease,
and consider it my duty to say a word
in behalf of the remedy which gave me
such relief Peruna cured me, and L
know it will cure any one else who suf-
fers from this disease. 1t gives me great
pleasure to testify to the curative effects
of this medicine. Peruna is well-test-
ed and frequently-used remedy. and for
catarrh of the stomach it is unsurpassed
MY catarrh was principally located
in my head and stoma CHI. tried many
remedies without success. [ tried sen
cral doctors. but they were unable to
cure me. read of Peruna in the papers
and five bottles cured me.'-frank
Richter.
The gastric juice is secreted by the
mucous follicles of the stomach. When
this juice is normal it digests (dissolves)
the food without producing any disturb
ance whatever. If, however, the gastric
Juice is not normal, digestion causes
many disas agreeable symptoms. This con-
dition is known as indigestion Peruna
will cure this.
