Weak Hearts

Are caused by, Indigestion. If you
eat little too much, or If you are sub
ject to attacks of indigestion, the stom-
ach expands-swells and puffs up against
the heart. This crowds the heart and
shortens tie breath. Rapid heart beats
and heart disease is the final result Ko-
dol Dyspepsia Cure digests what you
eat, takes the strain off che heart, cures
indigestion, dyspepsia, sour stomach,
and contributes nourishment, strength
and health to every organ of the body.

A touching story of the early days Of
the mutiny is told of the Allahabad
massacre. Seven cadets just out from
england were murdered before they
had time to join their regiments. The
oightb n boy of sixteen, was left for
dead but survived in spite of horrible
wounds. for four days hiding himself
in a ravine. On the fifth day he was
discovered, dragged to the native lines
and thrust into hut as a prisoner
He found there a Christian catechist
who had been formerly a Mohammedan
and who was being tortured by the
senovs to make him renounce his faith.
The catechist's courage had given way,
but the gallant English lad-himself on.
" sixteen years of age-urged the
nnbappv catechist: Don't deny Christ!
Never deny Christw Neill reached Al.
lahabad in time to rescue both cate
cbist and ensign. But the ensign, Ar
thur Cheek. died of his wounds four
days after Neilrs arrival.-From THE
Great Mutiny."
Are the planets inhabiredT Canine
Flammarion, author Of "The Un-
known" pursues this inquiry in Har-
per's with decided bias toward the
affirmative. NJ. Flammarion is in
clined to regard the other planets as
+he dwellings Of Immortality" He
asks: IF man dies out completely how
can the immensity of the universe in
terest us? If nothing remains of US, if
we are only ephemeral mushrooms Of
the globe, living for a short time, how
does it all concern us? Science is only
a mockery like life itself; yea, a stu

HE CRITICISED A COURT
Fine of so. .OOO Assessed Against a North
Carolina Editor and an Appeal
Denied.

Raleigh. y. c.. June l. - Judge
Purnell, in the United States court
here, fined Joscphus Daniels. editor
of The News and Oberver, $2.O'sD and
refused an appeals on the charge of
contempt of court in editorials which
The News and Observer published last
Sunday. The court ruled that it had
jurisdiction, which was against the
contention of the defense.
The defense also argued that Dan
iels had purged himself of contempt in
his answer that it was not the intcn-
tiOn of the editorials to bring the
court into contempt, but simply TO
present the matters involved in the
receivership of the Atlantic and North
Carolina railroad. Daniels so far has
not paid the fine and is in the custody
