FAULTY DIGESTION.
Quickly Skaters the Nervous System
and Should Be Given Atten-
ton at Once.

If the sufferer with weak nerves only
realized that faulty digestion was the
chief cause of nerve exhaustion, cure
would be much easier, for he would
then strengthen the digestive organs
with Mi-o-na stomach tablets.
A few days use of these tablets will
tone and strenthen the digestive sys-
tenn so that it will absorb all the ele-
ments of nerve force from the daily
food, and the nerves will be strength
ened, sleeplessness will be overcome,
weakness will vanish, and the various
functions of the body will become nat
ural and regular.
If you have specks before the eyes,
are sleepless, have nervous twitchings,
headaches and backaches, if there is
nausea or distress after eating, if the
appetite is poor and there is general
debility or weakness, begin the use of
Mi-o-na at once, and you will soon no.
tice a marked improvement in health,
twill give strength and vigor to the
whole digestive system, restore the vital
force and nerve energy, land impart am
bition, strength and good spirits to the
discouraged, rundown and weak,
You run no'risk whatever inbuying
Mf-o-na, for Dodson's Pharmacy give
an absolute guarantee with every So
cent box that the money will be refun-
ded unless Mi-o-na does all lhat is
claimed it.

MENUS Van Drebbell and consisted of
tube filed with air. closed at its up
per end and dipping at its other ex-

nitric acid diluted with water. AS the
temperature rose or fell the air In the
tube increased or grew less in volume
and consequently the liquid descended
or rose. This instrument is now known
as an air thermometer, but as it's meas
urements were based on no fixed prin-
ciple it was of little use.

MAN SUICIDES
At MANMNGTON

Warrington, Feb. 26-This entire
city was stirred last night at S;15
O'Clock BY sensational case of sui
eide and attempted murder which
resulted in the death of Fred Hun
ter and the serious injury of his
wife. With 3s-caliber revolver
Hunter attempted to kill his wife
and then sent bullet through his
own brain.
Few details of the shooting can
be learned, as the wife is shot
through the jaw and talks but little.
It is known that the couple had
family troubles and this is supposed
TO have led to the affair.
Hunter and his wife had not been
living together and last night he
went to place on lower Main street,
where his wife was staying, and call
ed her out. They stood ON the side
walk and had talked for a.few min
utes, when the man drew the pistol
from his pocket and fired shot
which struck his wife in the Jaw. As
she fell to the pavement the man
turned the weapon upon himself and
fred the fatal bullet which entered
at his right ear and penetrated his
brain. Both lay in pools Of their
own blood when the neighbors,
aroused by the noise of the pistol
shots and the alarm given by a man
said to have seen the shooting, ar
rived on the spot.
Medical assistance was Immediate
ly summoned, but Hunter was al
ready dead. Examination proved
that his wife's jaw was broken, but
that her wounds were not necessarily
fatal. She talked little but could
not be understood.
Hunter was aged about % and
formerly was employed in the oil
fields. His wife is about 90 and
they had been married about four
Iyears. No children survive. Hun
ter was said 10 be jealous of his wife
and this is supposed to have led him
o commit the rash deed.
| Coroner Amos, of Fairmont, was
notified of the suicide.

paid prior to 1908. 1t is believed
the men will modify their demands
for an increase of twelve and half
per cent. and agree to take sos per
cent. increase offered them by the
producers. II is hoped they viii ac-
cept this offer and thus avoid the
great labor struggle, which would
paralyze business throughout the
country. Vice President Lewis, Of
the United Mine Workers, in pub
lie statement counsels tine accept
ance Of the offer or whatever more
the operators may choose to give
rather than enter into a strike and
the feeling prevails that the matter
will yet be properly adjusted. Mr..
Lewis himself feels that there win
not be strike. This matter affects
one hundred and fifty thousand
workers directly. In the anthracite
fields, however, there are all the
Fsigns of a big strike affecting $4,000
miners. There is said to be no
probability of miners and operators
getting together.

The Republican members of the
interstate commerce committee could
not agree as to which one of them
should have the honor OF presenting
and reporting the Hepburn bill in
the Senate, and so in their wrangle
they let Senator Tillman do it, and
now some are trying to figure it out
that it avs done to rebuke the Presi-
dent, but in this there has been a
failure as Mr.. Roosevelt, while he
would like for his party men to
dave due honor, yet is much more
interested in the welfare of the peo-
pie of the nation and will forgive
and forget what Senator Tillman
has done against him and said about
him and join hands with him in
passing the bill. 1t may not be
regular for a Democrat to have
charge of Republican measure
coming from a Republican House to
y Republican committee and then to
n Republican Senate. But it is not
especially that sort of regulation the
Hepburn bill is meant for. True. il
j. a regulation bill, but it is TO regl-
luate railroad rates and MOI Senate
methods. West Virginia would like
to have it called the Elkins bin, but
Mr.. Elkins has not seen fit to es-
ponse the cause to the extent Of lend
ing it the dignity of his name. Why
Is not clearly disclosed. 1t, may be
he wanted to amend it and wanted
himself to do it alone. At any rate
tie Republican members by what
seems to be a bit Of peevishness on
tie part of themselves have lost the
honor, but they can square them
selves by giving the bill their hearty
support, and it is more than likely
public sentiment viii induce them
to do so.

Special young ladies will be assign
ed to assist Miss Tierney and the
patrons of the class in making the
selection of stamped linens. silks,
etc, avoiding as much DELAY as pos
sible, that the ladies may get the

Governor Pattison, of Ohio, ac-
cording to the testimony of an at
tending physician, in the insurance
investigation matter, is sane, but so
weak in body and mind on account
of continued illness that he can not
give consideration to any subject a
length of time that is necessary to
form an intelligent opinion. 1t
looks very much as if he viii never
perform any duties as chief execu-
tive of the Buckeye State, however
regrettable it may be to those who
elected him. In the event Of his
demise Republican viii succeed
him as governor, and this will as
suage the disappointment, for the
same people elected both, and did so
knowing that the effice of lieutenant
governor carries with it succession
TO the goyernorshop in the case OF
vacancy. Considering the fact that
Mr.. Pattison is the first Democratic
governor of Ohio within many years
the circumstances begin to indicate
and emphasize that Ohio was never
intended for a Democratic state and
that the Democratic domination
there will be brief.
