FRAUD IN REWARDS
Governor Glenn Writes
an Urgent Letter to
Solicitors.

Owing to the fact that of late a
great many applications for rewards
for the capture of criminals have been
made to the Governor, in many of
which he doubts the good faith ne has
written a letter to all the solicitors of
the Staet. asking them to consider
carefully applications OF this nature
before making recommendations in re-
gard TO them. The Governor suggests
that the officers might save the State
enormous costs by attending more
zealously to thei: duties.
The letter is as follows:
Csc many requests for rewards are
being made, some of which do not
seem to be in perfect good faith, that
deem it best to makeia rule that no
requests for rewards will be granted
until it receives the endorsement Of
the solicitor of the District / there
fore urge you, before endorsing any
application for reward. to look care
fully into the case and, see whethe"
III your judgmeEta proclamation
should be issued,
1.-The sheriff deputies and c1nstables
should be able to apprehend any crim-
inal i'm their own county, and should
see to it. that if the party is a fugi-
tive in another county. that q capiaS
be issued to that county and the ar
rest be made. Also if they can locate
the fugitive in another State. they
should ask the authorities of that
State to apprehend and hold the GRIM
inal until / can make reauisition. 1t
is getting too common for them to
take things quietly and ask for re-
wards, when by diligent search and
inquiry, this cost to the State might
be avoided
Having confidence in you. as Off
GERS of the State, l will be governed
largely by your recommendation.

About "BIood Purifiers and ''Tonics."
Every drop of blood, every bone
nerve and tissue in the body can be
renewed in but one way, and that is
from wholesome food properly diegs-
ted. There is no other way and the
idea that a medicine in itself can pu-
rify the blood or supply new tissues
and strong nerves is ridulous and
on a par with the fol. de-rol that dys-
pepsia or indigestion is G germ dis
ease, or that other falacy, that a weak
stomach which refuses to digest food
can be made to do so by irritating
and inlaming the bowels by pills and
cathartics.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets cure in
digestion, sour stomach, gas and bloat-
ing after meals because they furnish
the digestive principles which weak
stomachs lack, and, unless the def
cheney Of pepsin and disease is sup
piled, it is useless to attempt to cure
stomach trouble by the use of tones,
pills and cathartics' which have abb
solutely no digestice power, and their
only effect is to give a temporary slim

3 900 grains OF meat, eggs and SINH
lar foods and experiments have shown
that they will do this in a glass bot
tie at proper temperature but of
course are much more effective in the
stomach.
There is probably no remedy so uni
versally used as Stuart's Tablets, be-
cause it is not only the sick and all
ing, but well people who use them
at every meal to insure perfect di-
gestion and assimilation of food
People who enjoy fair health take
Stuarts Tablets as regularly as they
take their meals, because they want
to keep well. Prevention is better than
cure, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
do both; they prevent Indigestion and
they remove it where it exists The
regular use of one or two of them
after meals will demonstrate their
merit and efficiency better than any
! other argument.
