Folks By His Tricks
The curbstone merchants outside
the Center market, says The Washing
ton STAR were all Oh hand, with tkeu
wares displayed, to catch The early
markelers Ii was a cold morning.,
and the charcoal brazicrs buinea
chcerily, diiIusing faint heat FOR a
space Of at least Ten inches around
Along the B street side Of the mar
kel house were ranged the aged col
ored folks from the nearby vrgiuis
farms, With lhelr little store ol
"yarbs,' eggs, an occasional rabbit,
bundles Of dried sassaFras root and
the meager commodities III which they
deal
These ancient ones were wrapped
in voluminous folds Of shawls and
blankets, as they crouched BY their
charcoal fires and rubbed their hands
over the glowing Goals between trades.
Every one Of them was relic OF
slavery days, and thoroughly imbued
with the superstiiions and traditions
Of their early environments.
Along the sidewalk came man in
an overcoat, with big fur collar and
wide pockets. He wore sealskin cap,
and his beard was trimmed to point,
while his mustache turned upward
He excited suspicion from The hrst,
for there WAS something uncanny in
his look, and the first old "mammy"
ne passed stirred uneasily as he half
hestaied before her stall.
Old Aunt Charity was the first to-
attract his attention. She had bas-
ket of clean white eggs before her
"ls there anything else in that bas-
ket but eggs| he asked.
"Why, no; co'se not" was the sur
prised reply.
Without a word, the stranger
reached down, and, after turning over
a few eggs, produced a squealing
white rabbit from the basket, which
he held up to view.
There was an ominous silence for
a few seconds, followed by a chorus
of exclamations OF surprise and dis
may.
"Conjurerl ConjurerP' were the
words that passed rapidly down the
line. The occupants Of the neighbor-
ing stalls leaned eagerly and yet half
Iearfully forward TO see and listen,
whats hat you have under your
shawl?' demanded the visitor, stern

her shawl tightly yaround her

how careful he might be. It seems to be the irony of fate that the more careful an officer Is the more apt he Is to meet with misfortune in the care of prison- CTS. If he gives way to sentiments of hu- manity prisoners will take advantage of his kindness, and if he is strict and ex- acting in his requirements he will be charged with brutality-.'so there you are', to use common expression
 In conclusion I beg leave to say, as the escapes occurred at night, many are in clined to charge that the young man who was on duty as night warden was guilty of gross carelessness. This young man was employed by me as deputy sheriff during my administration of the sheriff s office. and 1t gives me pleasure to say that no braver, more faithful nor honester officer ever filled the position than Henry Ball. and no blame should attach to him on the score of attention to duty. A dis eliminating and fair public will do jus tice to the brave men who are up and out at all hours of night, in fair and stormy weather, ready to guard, at the risk of their lives, the property and lives of their fellow citizens of Jefferson county.

ing sensation after eating accompanied
 sometimes with. sour or watery risings,
 formation of gases, causing pressure
 on the heart and lungs and difficult
 breathing headaches, fickle appetite
 nervousness and a general played-out languid feeling.
 There is often foul taste in the mouth
 coated tongue and if the interior of the
 stomach could be seen it would show
 a shiny, unframed condition
 The cure for this common and obstin-
 ate trouble is found in treatment which
 causes the food to be readily, thorough
 ly digested before it has time to fern ent
 and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach To secure prompt and
 healthy digestion is the one necessary
 thing to do and when normal digestion Is secured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared.
 According to Dr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment is to use after each
 meal tablet composed of Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden Seal
 and fruit acids. These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and not being a patent medicine can be used
 with perfect safety and a>>urance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will follow their regular use after meals. MT N. J. Booher. Chicago. Ill.,. writes: "Catarrh Is local condition resulting from a neglected cold in the head, where by the lining membrane of the nose be- comes inflamed and the poisonous dis
 charge therefrom passing backward into
