GINSENG GARDEN.
New Enterprise Started That
Promises Big Honey.

A ginseng garde n, the only one
in this section of Kentucky, is now
in operation in Bluff Spring district
near Carl, and the owners expect
to make a big thing out OF it.
About quarter of an acre was
planted three years ago and this
year the yield of seed was about
seven pounds. 1t is said that the
market value OF the seed is $50 "A
pound, but none will be sold for the
present, as all of the seed will be
planted to enlarge the plant. The
garden is located on the farm OF
Wesley and James Meacham and
Frank Williams is interested with
them. The garden is doing nicely
and the yield of seed this year was
a very promising start.

CHURCHESARE UNSAFE

Worship Win Remain
Closed Today.

Chicago Jan. 1e.-But one witness
was heard IN the Iroquois theatre in
quest today, and the jury then ad-
j0uTned to Inspect the interior Of the
theatre.
A lively dispute took. place when
Deputy Coroner Buckley and the ju-
rors entered the building. A force OF
detectives employed BY the owners of
the building followed them around and
insisted upon listening to ali that was
said. They moved away only when
Mr. Buckley threatened TO have all the
detectives arrested.
The sole witness today was James g.
Cummings, stage carpenter of the IrO-
quois theatre. he was exasperatingiy
evasive in his replies and Coroner
TTaeger rebuked him sharply several
times.
Cummings testimony did not differ
materially from that of other stage en-
ployes, save that he swore he had
shown a dozen of them how 70 open
the ventilators. and they unanimously
swore that nobody had ever shown
them anything about the ventilators.
Rev. Charles l. Roberts, pastor of

MAKE PEACE WITH
YOUR STOMACH
You Are Certain to Lose if You At
tempt the Use Of Force and
Violence.

You cannot force your stomach to do
work that it is unable and unwilling
TO do. II has been tried time and time
again with always the same result. The
stomach is a good and faithful servant;
but when pushed beyond the limit it
rebels. Some stomachs viii stand much
more abuse than others, but every
stomach has its limit; and when the
limit is reached it is a very dangerous
and unWise proceeding 10 attempt TO
force it into doing further work. The
sensible and reasonable course is to
employ a substitute To carry on the
work of digestion and give the stomach
an opportunity to recuperate and re-
gain its lost strength.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
only perfect substitute 10 take up and
carry on the work Of tired wOrn-out
stomachs. They are natural and easy
in their work, and cause no disturbance
in the digestive organs. They contain
all the essential elements that make up
the gastric juice and other digestive
fluids. and viii digest any food that a
strong, healthy stomach WILL and do it
in the same time and in the same way.
They work Independently Of surround
ing conditions, and the fact that the
stomach is weak or diseased does not
influence them at all in their useful and
effective work. They VIII digest food
just as wei in a glass jar or bottle as
they viii in a stomach. You can see
that for yourself by putting one Of them
into a jar with a square meal and some
water to enable il 20 work.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. by thus
relieving. the stomach of its work, en-
able that organ TO rest ard recuperate
and regain its health and strength. The
process is perfectly natural and plain.
Nature win heal the stomach Just as
she heals wound or a broken limb IL
she is not interfsred with and is permit
ted 10 do her work IN heF own way.
All interference is prevented by Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by druggists everywhere at so
cents a box, and if you are afflicted
with dyspepsia, one box viii make you
feel fifty times better. You VIII forget
you have a stomach and rejoice in the
forgetfulness. No druggist would be SO
shortsighted as to try to get along with
out Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, for they
are so popular and are so well known
for the good they have done and hap
pinese they have caused that any drug
gisJ caught without tbem would lose
the confidence Of his customers and be
regarded as below the standard. His
business would suffer as a result. and
his patrons would so to other stores
and buy their drugs there as wei as
their StuartE Dyspepsia Tablets.

ments and then assisted Eyraud to
strangle him. After the murder she
came to America with Eyraud, but
later returned TO Paris, and, urged by
a young man with whom she had fall
len in love, confessed her share in the
crime.
At her trial it was cOntended that
she was a hypnotic subject, and a hyp-
notist expert tried to secure permission
to hypnotic her ia open court and
have her enact the crime, but the jury
voted against the experiment. She was
convicted and sentenced to twenty
years Imprisonment, which, with COM
mutation for good behavior, recently
expired.
