A disordered stomach may cause no
end OF trouble. When the stomach fails
to perform its functions the bowels be-
come deranged, the liver and kidneys con-
gested, causing numerous diseases, the

important thing is to restore the stomach
and liver to healthy condition, and for
this purpose no better preparation can be
used than Chamberlain's Stomach and

AMERICAN WOMEN
 INVENT A NEW WORD.

The English language seems to have been recently enriched with a new word. It Is not in the dictionary, but no doubt 1t will be in the next edition. It is q word much in use among women, especially young wo- men; that is why mention it here. It ap- pears to be particle of affirmation or of assent. taking the place of a mild yes" do not know how to spell it. It is not "um' or lam" or "em'' or "om." but ''m-m-m." Though I cannot spell it. I can tell you how to pronounce 1t. Begin as if you were going to say man." then just stop at .rm," leaving off the ian" At the same time grunt the I'm" up through your nose and you will catch exactly this new word that is all the go among girls ''m-m." It is not pleasant sounding word. and you must speak 1t as if you were in pain inwardly, but it is very popular.
 Two girls were going to work downtown Monday morning. One had a sweetheart. and the other had not. and the one who had was telling the other girl all about 1t. She said:
 T met him first at the Friendiies clubs Saturday nights sociables. I saw him look ing at me- and looked at him. and he says to Tom Banning, he says. Introduce me to the young lady in pink" 4. The talker stopped a second to catch her breath. and the listener remarked sympathetically:
 "M-m."
 The other girl caught her breath and pro-  that night. and all the rest of them they was looking at us. Now. what do you think of that?"
 "M-m."
 Next time saw him went with mom- mer on an excursion to Washington. don't people just crowd in and spoil your pleas ure." And. as before. the listener sympa- thetically remarked:
 "M-m"
 'In Washington we went to the Bang Up House; that's where the Four Hundred ai- ways stops, you know"

 And the walters at them swell hotels they divide people into two classes. and they set the nice people on one side of the dining room and the common people them that eats with their knives and talks bad grammar--on the other.''

 well, the waiter he gives mommer and me two of the best seats in the dining room, and I looked up. and there was clarkus sporgans sitting right opposite me"
 And 1t wasn't long till we got engaged Now, what do you think of that9"
 "M-m."
 Hell be waiting to meet me this morn ing when get off the car. Do look all right?"
 'M-m."
 The girl with the sweetheart ran on in a twitter of pleased excitement. asking whether she looked nervous and getting the same "m-m'' for answer As she rose to leave the car she asked the supreme final feminine question:
 "Is my hat on straight?"
 "M-m."
 And do think when the other girl gets sweetheart of her own and stands at the altar to be married to him and the min ister asks her. 'wilt thou take this man? the answer will be:
 "M-m."

Dawson's Majority Greatly Exceeds Entire Republican Vote.

Charleston, W. Va. May 7.-At the Republican primaries here todey w O. Dawson for Governor carried the city over c. F. Teter by 2.50O. The Teter men say this is about TOO more than the actual Republican vote and that the result Is due to the fact that Grant Hall, who was the manager for Teter and considered his selection for Secretary of State. was refused repre- sentation at the polls. and for that req son during the afternoon was compell- ed to give up the fight
 It Is charged that Dawson, through the Executive Committee. controlled the election officers. The Teter faction was managed here by what is known as the Hall Fielder organization realiz- ing the condition that confronted them dtermined on the desperate expedIent of preventing the holding of an eIec- tion in all the precincts where either a clerk. commissioner and a challenger was refused.
