Women and Jewels.

Jewels, candy, flowers, man-that
is the order OF a weman'spreferencex
Jewels form a magnet OF mighty
power to the average woman. Even
that greatest Of all jewels, health, is
ruined in the strenuous efforts to
make or save the money to purchase
them. II a woman will risk her
health to get a coveted gem, then let
her iortiiy herself against the insid-
ious consequences OF coughs, colds
and bronchial affections by the reg
ular use Of DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup. 1t will promptly arrest con-
sumption in its early stages and heal
the affected lungs and bronchial
tubes and drive the dread disease
from the system. 1t is not cure-all
but 1t is a certain cure for coughs,
colds and all bronchial troubles. You
can get DR.. G. G. Green's reliable
remedies at any drugstore.

COMMITS SUICIDE WITH DYNAMITE
George Rue Blows Himself Into the
Next World With Ten Pounds
Of Explosive.


Decatur, ILL.,, Feb. 13,-Coroner
Dawson put in nearly all OF this
morning gathering up enough oil the
fragments OF George B. Rue's body
to have an inquest and a funeral.
His Investigations showed that
there was no doubt that Rue inten-
tionally killed himself by sitting on
ten pounds of dynamite and setting
it off with percussion cap.
On foot was the largest piece OF his
body found. The rest was scattered
over an acre OF ground, and count
less small particles we're seen every
where, even in the tops Of tall trees.
Rue wrote q letter Saturday to his
brother at Lexington, ILL.,, saying the
brother would not see him again. Is
was not until the brother arrived
late last night and went to Rue's
hone in a lonely part of the county,
i've miles from here, that the death
was discovered.
Monday morning at > O'Clock Rue
went into the timber and exploded
tn, dynamite. The shock was felt
for miles around and caused much
speculation. 1t was supposed to
have been another earthquake shock
As Rue lived alone, no one missed
him.
He used dynamite to blast stumps
He had often remarked that tel
pounds of it would send a man out
of the world, and would not make {
funeral necessary.
Ill health is the only known reason
for his suicide.
