on freight and those of them who
while the remainder went to the police

Their story is much tire same as

they had been duped by the agent who
only wanted to get their money. He has

LITTLE NEW EVIDENCE.
Hossack Case Proceeding Along tn

Hossack Case Proceeding Along the
Lines of the First Trial.
Winterset. Feb 14.-The Hossack
case is progressing along the lines of
the first trial. There is little pros
pect of new evidence being introduced.
About all that has appeared SO far not
lin the evidence at the first trial was
the testimony of Deputy Sheriff Grant
Kimer to the finding of gummy sub
stance on the blade of the AK with
which it is alleged Mr.. Hossack was
killed. kimer testified to finding the
ak under the corn crib, said there We're
three hairs on it, one short and two
long, apparently human. He then
stated that there was also gummy
substance on the blade like that to be
found on an AK used for cutting meat.
He said he noticed no blood on it.
u. w. Hossack, son Of the murdered
man, told his story yesterday. He said
he found his mother crying in the
kitchen while his father lay dying in
an adjacent bedroom, the blood oozing
from great cash in his head. Will
said that he was awakened the night of
his fathers death by hearing his mother
call the girls. He got up and went
down stairs and found his mother in
the kitchen, crying softly. She told
him his father was hurt and he took a
lamp from her unresisting hand. He
walked into the bedroom and found his
father with his head bleeding on the
pillow The jury became deeply inter-
ested and made him go into the most
minute details to tell of the CLOTHING
of the blood in an evident attempt to
ascertain how long before Mr.. Hossack
had been wounded.
The blood was in kind of rope"
he said. 1T was about three fingers
in width and as thick as my hand
(holding it up.) and it reached from his
ear to the pillow.
Il said to father. Who hurt you?"
He said, Nobody"
Will then testified to seeing his
brother Ivan, the youngest, crying in
the room.
Its Ivan crying because you are
hurt I said.
I'm not hurt; I'm sick he an
swereI."
Will said his father called them all
by name and asked for water with
which to wet his lips. 1t was giver
him, but he would not tell how he was
hurt or who hurt him.

A DAILY NUISANCE.
A Simple Remedy Which Will lnteres,
Catarrh Sufferers.

In its earlier stages catarrh Is more
of nuisance than a menace to the
general health, but sooner or later the
disease extends to the throat, bronchial
tubes and even to the stomach and in
testines.
Catarrh is essentially disease of the
mucous membrane, the local symptoms
being a profuse discharge of mucous.
stoppage of the nostrils, irritation in
throat, sneezing, gagging and frequent
clearings of the throat and head.
The usual treatment by local DOUGH-
es, snuffs. salves, etc., often gives tenn
porary relief, but anything like a cure
can only be obtained by a treatment
which removes the catarrhal faint from
the blood and the disappearance of the
Inflammation from the mucous surf
aces.
\ new remedy which meets these re-
quirements and which so far has been
remarkably successful in curing catarrh
Is Ssuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membranes only. They can
hardly be called secret patent medi-
cine, as they are composed of such val
liable remedies as Blood root. Hydras-
tin, Red gum and similar cleansing an
tiseptics, which cure by eliminating
from the blood and mucous surfaces the
catarrhal poison.
Stnart's Catarrh Tablets are large.
pleasant tasting lozenges taken inter-
nally, allowing them to dissolve slowly
in the mouth in this way they reach
the throat, fauces and the entire ALI
mentary canal.
If desired, they may also be dissolved
in water and used as douche, in addi-
ton to the internal use, but 1t is not at
all necessary to use douche; few of
them dissolved in the mouth daily will
be sufficient However, when there is
much stoppage of the nose. a douche
made from these tablets will give i'm
mediate relief, but the regular daily use
internally of these tablets will cure the
whole catarrhal trouble without resort
ing to the inconvenience of douche.
DR.. Bement states that the internal
treatment for catarrh is rapidly taking
the place of the old plan of douching
and local application, and further says
that probably the best and certainly the
safest remedy at present on the market
is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. as no Sc
Get is made of their composition and all
the really efficient remedies for catarrh
are contained in this tablet"
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets at so cents for full sized packages.
Ask your druggist and If he Is honest
he will tell you there is no safer, more
nalatable. more efficient and conyeni-
emit remedy on the market.
