How TO
Gain IeSh

Persons have been known to
gain a pound a day by taking
an ounce of SCOTS EMUL-
SION. 1t is strange, but it often
happens.
i Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start the
digestive machinery going prop
erly, SO that the patient is able
to digest and absorb his ordinary
food, which he could not do be-
fore, and that is the way the gain
is made.
A certain amount Of flesh is

years Of age, with the throat cut from

1t would have been impossible for him to

and right hand are bruised, as though
he had struggled with his murderer. His
clothing was stripped Of everything. of

identify him. The place where the mur-
der was committed Is lonely spot, and
If the hunters had not accidentally STUN

Special Dispatch to The Call.

REDDING, Oct. 7.-Owners Of large
droves of hogs in Northern California,
with the assistance of Assemblyman J..
A. Hubbard, have united in an effort to
check the unparalleled plague which has
carried off 100000 hogs in the northern
portion of the State during the past six
months and whose present ravages
threaten an aggregate loss of $1,000, 900.
Mr.. Hubbard has returned from Red
Bluff, where a convention of the hog
raisers of the five northern counties was
held. Tt was decided not to ask for aid
from the Federal Government for fear
this entire section would be quarantined.
The State, which cannot declare a live
stock quarantine, will be called upon.
The growers who assembled at Red
Bluff described the various treatments
they had used. One had found a tea
spoonful of lime eff1cacious in the early
stages of the disease, and another advo-
Gated a teaspoonful of sweet spirits of
inter and five or six drops of carbolic
acid as good preventive. One man from
remedies, lost his entire band of $500 hogs.
The growers unanimously passed a res

the State University to send experts to
investigate the disease A meeting of
delegates from all counties north of Sac
ramento will be held at Red Bluff on
October 19, when further steps will be
taken.

FIVE HUNDRED
FOR A HUSBAND
Stockton Spinster Picks
Up a Matrimonial
Bargain.
Employment Agent Block
Succeeds in Arranging
a Happy Match.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

STOCKTON, Oct 7-Lizette Brown,
with the aid of $500 in hard cash, has
managed to change her name to that of
Mrs. Andreas Hunse. The transaction is
accounted for in this way;
Some time ago LiZette Brown, who is 55
years of age, applied to Z. Block, an en-
ployment agent She wanted a husband,
and she declared her willingness to pay
Block $500 for a suitable one. Block tried
hard to earn the $500, but had about lost
hope when Hunse, aged 80, came to pur-
chase some ranch property from him
Block tried to sell him chicken ranch,
but Hunse demurred. Said he:
i don't want any chicken ranch. If
had a chicken ranch I'd have to have a
wife, and have no wife,
Well exclaimed Block, seeing his op-
portunity, L can get you a wife and a
ranch both together"
Now you're talking" said Hunse, de-
lighted at the idea
Then Block told him about Ldzette and
Hunse declared that he was In love with
her right away. Block likewise told
Hunse that his intended was well off and
had large ranch, whereat Hunse ap-
peered to love her all the more.
So the bargain was made, and the two
were united this morning by Justice
Parker. It is said that Mrs Hunse is of
the opinion that, at the price, she got
her husband fairly cheap.

a Prominent French Physician Says
DYspepsia Can Be Easily Cured.

Dyspepsia Can Be Easily Cured.
NEW YORK, Oct. Z, 19O1.-Dr: Louis Ma
rion, prominent physician Of Havre,
France, who is at present In this city, in
an interview to-day said: while it is
not surprising that SO many Americans
get dyspepsia, considering the way they
live and particularly what they eat, yet
it is surprising that many suffer so
long from the disease, as it is, in fact,
very easy to cure If the right course is
pursued. The inner lining of the stomach
Of a person suffering with dyspepsia is
covered with a coating of unhealthy nu-
Gus, which prevents the proper flow of
gastric fluid. Stimulants to the gastric
juice may give temporary relief, but as
they do not remove the true cause Of the
disease they cannot effect a cure while
they frequently aggravate 1T, owing to
their poisonous properties. All that is
necessary to cure dyspepsia is to take a
little hydrozone in a half-glass of water
before meals and a teaspoonful of glyco-
zone after meals. The hydrozone being
powerful but non-injurious antiseptfc
and pus destroyer breaks down the NOR
bid element, while glycozone, acting on a
clean surface, subdues the inflammation
This method of treatment is in accord
ance with reason and experience shows
