PREACHER WINS
SUIT ON LEASE

COURT REPRIMANDS WOMAN
Litigation Arising From Claim for
Loss on Breach of Contract Is
Decided Adversely to Aged
Couple
COURT REPRIMANDS WOMAN

II accepted his promise in good faith
I thought he would stand by his word
but he went back on me-" said Mrs
Rebecca Diffey, an aged lodging house
keeper, in her suit against Rev. w
S. Bryant before Judge Conrey in de.
partment No. of the superior court
yesterday morning.
According to the complaint Mrs. DIFF.
fey contracted with Rev. Mr.. Bryant
for the lease of a lodging house he was
erecting at 3241k East Third street
The agreement gave the old couple
possession of the house September l.
1903, for three years at 500 a month
rental.
Trouble started when the city in
formed Bryant that he must make the
house entirely of brick instead of the
preparation then being used. This the
minister alleged delayed the work con-
siderably, and he was unable to COM
plete the house by September.
The old couple had given up their
boarding house and moved into the
house September Z, although the roof
was then not finished.
Mrs. Diffey alleged yesterday that
she was unable to furnish the house
for the reception of dodgers until late
in October and she thereby lost $500.
Mrs. Diffey became excited while
testifying to her alleged wrongs and
exclaimed, Eyes, he promised to make
the loss good and then went back on
his word, and he was a preacher, too"
Strike that expression from the
transcript" said Judge Conrey to the
court reporter, land, madam, if you
make another such statement in my
court you will be fined for contempt"
Judgment was rendered against the
aged couple.

perform your daily tasks or care for

The relation of the nerves and gem
erative organs in women is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability. Spirits easily affected. SO
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps. Pain in the ovaries and
between the shoulders. Loss of voice;
nervous dyspepsia. A tendency to cry
at the least provocation. All this points
to nervous prostration.
Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros
tration and suffering so surely as Lydia

THE HAIR BRUSH
Breeds Dandruff, Which Causes Failing
Hair and Finally BaIdness

Prof Unna, Hamburg, Germany
says that dandruff is as contagious as
any other malevolent disease, and that
one common source of the spread of
dandrun Is the use of the same hair
brush by different persons. The way to
avoid catching dandruf or any other
disease from another's brush, is to in
sist on the use of Newbro's Herpicide.
II not only kills the dandrun germ but
II Is also an antiseptic that will pre-
vent the catching OF any disease what
ever through contagion of another's
brush.

BELIEVES IN
HOME TRADE

A few weeks ago the 'Bugle Horn
was salnding its clarion notes in ad-
vocating the pending of our money at
home with our own people and not
send away for goods.
| would suggest that you set your
notes to the same tune and ask the
city administration to use home made
gravel on our sidewalks that they are
about to contract for, instead of imp
orting stone. By so doing they will
save $4,000 to the already heavily
burdened tax payer and this money
will be spent at home instead of
abroad and paying unnecessary
freight rates.
River gravel is lperior to cresned
stone under our specifications where
no tamping is specified, and there is
plenty of gravel in close proximity.

south of Greenville, owned by w A.

and sold it green to stables in Green

from the 81 acres S26.5o, which is
equivalent to S3453 per acre for the
first cutting. This alfalfa was sown
in March, 1904, and was cut three
times last season. 1t can easily Re
