miserable disease that has all kinds of
causes except a germ. To cure it the in

gives strength and tone to the whole sys-
tenn.

a complete cure. No one should hesitate
trying this remedy.
Mi-O-na is sold by Henry Evans on the
fairest plan imaginable, with an absolute
guarantee to refund the money in case it
does not cure. He will sell you Mi-o-na
on trial with the positive understanding
that If it does not give satisfaction the

HUTH's CONDITION IMPROVES
Body of Woman he Killed Inferred
This Afternoon.

Considerable interest was shown by the
prisoners at the Jail yesterday afternoon
when Henry HUH, the slayer of Mrs Agnes
Levy, reached the prison. He was taken to
jail In the patrol wagon of the first pre-
clnct, and his handouts were removed as
soon as he entered the prison. He was
kept handcuffed yesterday because it was
feared he would make an effort to reopen
the wounds made when he attempted to
take his life The prisoner went through
the usual routine of new members of the
big family of prisoners and was then placed
In one Of the big cells in the south wing
where prisoners charged with the more
serious crimes are confined. The iron
bracelets were removed from his wrists
after the Jail was reached but the guards
were careful to see that he was kept under
observation.
His first night in the prison was a quiet
one and he seemed to be In better condi
ton this morning than he did yesterday
when he appeared before the coroner
jury. 1t is believed by those who witnessed
his actions at the inquest yesterday that he
is trying to feign insanity. Some of his
the plea that he is insane, and say he has
not been right for a long time, but police
men and others in Official life who have
come in contact with him are of a different
opinion.
When DR.. Hudson. the resident physician
at the Jail, went to dress his wounds this
morning he found the prisoner apparently
as sane as the others who occupied the
prison cells. Considering the patients
generally bad physical state his wounds
were in splendid condition.
The body of Mrs. Levy was laid to rest
in Congressional cemetery this afternoon.
Former friends of hers called at the
morgue yesterday morning and took a last
look at the body. There were several
charitable women among the callers, and
before they became aware that the wo-
mans life was insured they took up col
lection to be used in defrayng the funeral
expenses Later the money was returned
to those who had donated 1t.
Late in the afternoon the body was re-
moved to Perrys undertaking establish
ment from where the funeral took place.
