A Good Thing.

German Syrup is the special pre-
scription of DIR. A. Boschee, a cele-
brated German Physician, and is ac-
knowledged to be one of the most
fortunate discoveries in Medicine.
IL quickly cures Coughs, Colds and
Lung troubles of the severest ma
ture, removing, as it does, the cause
of the affection and leaving the
partssin a strong and healthy condi-
tion. ~ 1t is not an experimental
medicine, but has stood the test OF
years, giving satisfaction in every
case, which its rapidly increasing
sale every season confirms. Two
million bottles sold annually.
BOschee's German Syrup was intro
duced in the United States in 1868,
and is now sold in every town and
village in the civilized world. Three
doses will relieve any ordinary
cough. Price 75 cts. Get Green's

LIFE TERM FOR GIBSON.
Murdered His Stepchild and viii Spend
Ms Life in Dinsy Cell.

Catlettsburg, KY. Feb. 1.-The
jury in the William Gibson case
at 2:0S this afternoon returned
the following verdict:
"We, the jury, find the defend
ant, William Gibson, guilty as
charged in the Indictment, and
fix his punishment at life in the
penitentiary."
Gibson's face flushed red and
then turned deathly pale when
he realized that he had been
found guilty of an atrocious
crime, of which he had all along
asserted his innocence.
After the case was concluded
and the convicted man returned
to his cell there was much talk
among the people in and around
the court house. They freely ex-
pressed their dissatisfaction over
the verdict, asserting that Glib.
son should have received the
death penalty, if guilty, as the
jury declared.
Every precaution will be taken
to prevent any possible violence,
though the officers thought the
people would now let the law
take its course, as they have sc
far in the case.
The crime for which Gibson
was convicted was a horrible one

Chicago Packing Company Moves to
Prohibit Swearing.

Chicago Record Herald: The action
of the big packing firm of Swift d Co.
in posting notices forbdding profanity
on the companys premises will receive
the unqualified commentator of
every person who has any conception
of the elemental decencies of life
II is not necessary to inquire into the
immediate causes which led Swift a.
Co. to post this order. Its significance
lies in the fact that great corporation
employing 5000 persons in its packing
establishment should conceive 1t tc be
necessary or desirable to forbid indul-
gence in profanity among its employees.
The presumption Is that the corpora
ton was impelled by considerations
which affected its own interests as well
as the morals OF the employees.
Profanity among employees IN such
an establishment as that OF Swift K
Co is provocative of bad temper and
bad feeling. Ii not only lowers the
moral tone Of the employees who are
compelled TO listen to it but il Is a
breeder Of dissension. 1t is the fire.
brand that kindles a hot temper and
turns hatred into violence. II Is easy
to see, therefore. that ii may lower the
efficiency Of a large body Of employees
AS matter of fact there is not a
shadow Of excuse for profanity in any
relation or exigency Of life. II adds no
force or power to speech. II is the
confession OF vocal impotency In the
man who uses it. The clustering.
bloviating blesphemer who flies into a
rage and pours forth a stream Of pro-
family upon all occasions is man that
is not 10 be feared. When it comes 10
