What blessing it is.
Sought after by thousands.
Many a miserable man is happy now.
Nights of unrest, days of trouble.

"Baron" Won Liebch to BE Tried Today.
The hearing of the famous Prof Ru-
dolph Lebich, alias Baron Rudolph Won
Liebich, who was arrested in Burlington
some time ago on the charge of bgamy,
has been continued until Nov. !. Much
interest is being manifested locally in
the case, and when the announcement
spread that the professor was to be tried
last week, the court room was much too
small to accommodate the sightseers. All
eyes Toasted for some time on the figure
of Nine. Inga Liebich, the alleged first
wife of the "baron," who occupied a
prominent.place in the court room. Her
face was noticeably white and set, and
when her husband entered the room she
cast an unmistakable look of hatred at
him. He did not meet her gaze, but
bowed his head and took his seat without
looking at her. Later he quickly re-
gained his self-pOssession, and remained
calm and nOnchalant. Henry Ballard,
attorney for Llebich, in asking for a con-
tinuance, stated thar as the first alleged
marriage was performed IN London,
Eng, some 10 years ago, and as the facts
and proofs are there, they are difficult to
get In so short time. Mr.. Ballard ad-
mitted that the Burlington marriage was
legal, and said that the defense rested on
the statement that there was never any
legal marriage performed in London.
After obtaining the consent of States At
torney E. c. Mower, Justice Deberville
continued the case until the date stated.

STORY OF THE
YOUNG PHARMACIST.

Before purchasing this uptown drug
store the graduate in pharmacy. whose
father had let him have the money to go
into business for himself. spent about half a
day in standing across the street. in a spot
where he wouldn't attract attention. in
order to watch the doors of the drug store
so as to find out what sort of n trade IT
had. The number of persons he saw going
into the store satisfied him. and so he paid
the figure and took the store over. He closed
the pant up for a couple of days in order
TO have repairs made and to restock. and
then opened up for business. a fine feeling

out. The new proprietor idly picked up the
little frame that he had already bought for
the purpose of framing the first bill he took
in over the counter and sighed a bit.
The next was a little girl.
well, what did your mamma send you
for?" asked the new proprietor, beaming
upon the child.
Mamma didn't send me- said the little
girl. "but l came over to see II you had any
old cigar boxes. l want to make a wagon

The new proprietor plowed around in his

"Why, jamaica ginger's a pretty good

in pharmacy, starting for the part OF the
store where he kept his stock of jamaica
ginger.

starting for the door. Good thing. I've got
a bottle of that over at the house, and I'll
