1t ls perhaps not generally known
that there is woman in town who is
keeping house for two husbands. 1t
appears that many years ago the first
husband left for the west, and not
hearing from him for many years and
supposing him dead, perhaps, she mar
ried another man. Sometime after
wards the first husband returned and
asked for a home with his wife and
her second husband, which both the
latter seemed to cheerfully grant. So
far as anyone knows they get along
very nicely together, the second hus

w. Lorringer has now brought suit
against Simon Dunbar, in which the
plaintiff seeks to recover damages for
the injury done to his growing crops
through the action of Dunbar, who
Lorringer claims turned several head
of cattle and horses into his garden
almost totally running the product of
his toll. The case has been set for
Saturday, August gath, at which time
Justice Dance will give the SUIT due
attention. If the controversy between
these two farmers continues much
longer the once famous Jones county
calf case will have to take second
money.

chosen with regard to its nutritive value
but for its pleasure to the palate. AS
natural result the stomach is overloaded
with quantity of innutritious material
and the body is deprived of its due nour-
ishment. Presently disease of the ston1-
actl and digestive and nutritive systems
begins, frequently involving heart, liver,
kidneys and other organs.
THE PROSPERITY OF AMERICA
gives every man the opportunity for
good living, and almost every man takes
advantage Of the opportunity. The aver
age laborer in the United States lives as
only very prosperous people can live in
Europe. He lives too we'll. II is sing
ular thing to say but it is nevertheless a
fact that one of the greatest evidences of
national prosperity is found in the great
army of dyspeptics which is being newly
recruited every day in the year by good
ivers. The great trouble is that when
ach can't be abused with immunity, the
damage is already done. He has joined
the army of dyspeptics, the people with
WEAK" stomachs. He can't eat much
now without it hurts him. His stomach
seems unduly distended after eating.
There are bitter risings and belchings,
a constant feeling Of discomfort and
weight in the region of the stomach.
Probably, too, the liver becomes sluggish,
and there is feeling of lassitude with
headache.
These are only few of the signs and
symptoms of diseased stomach involv-
ing the other organs of digestion and
nutrition.
Disease won't cure itself, SO that it's
folly to neglect treatment thinking rit
will be all right again after time"
Disease never stands still, SO that every
days delay in using the right treatment
means worse condition.
