Old age as 1t comes in the orderly process of
Nature is a beautiful and majestic thing The
very shadow of the eclipse which threatens il,
makes IL the more prixed. 1t stands for ex-
perience. knowledge, wisdom and counsel.
That is old age as it should be. But old age
as IL SO often is means nothing but second
childhood OF mind and body What makes
the differences Very largely the care OF the
stomach. In youth and the full strength of
manhood it doesn't seem to matter how We
treat the stomach We abuse it. overwork il,
injure 1t. We don't suffer from il much. But
when age comes the stomach is worn out II
can't prepare and distribute the needed nour-
ishment TO the body, and the body, unnour-
ished, falls into senile decay. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is wonderful
medicine for old people whose stomachs are
weak" and whose digestions are aspoorp It's
invigorating effects are felt By mind as well as
body. It takes the sting from old age, and
makes old people strong.

in the Keyser, W. Va, hospital with
two bullet wounds in his body, and with
very slight chances of recovery, while
his brother-in-laW, Christian Helmick.
of Bayard, is in Jail, charged with the
shooting. 1t is alleged that Helmick
returned from dance, found his front
door locked and thinking his wife had
gone to the home of her brother, Will
lam Broll, to wait for him or stay all
night, went there in search of her; that
Broll started to quarrel with Helmick
about some family troubles and the two
got into fight when he asked Philip
Bierkamp to take Broll away. This
Bierkamp started to do when Helmick
pulled his revolver and fired two shots.
both of which took effect. One entered
Broll's stomach and took a downward
course; the other entered the thigh and
took the same course. The revolver
used was of thirty-eight calibre. Broll
was at once sent to the Keyser hospital,
and Helmick was arrested by Sheriff j.

in Maryland, died at his home, Popular

General Baughman had been in bad
health for more than a year, but his
final spell of sickness began with a
severe cold, contracted about seven
weeks ago, while he was experimenting
the preparation of some of his fine
horses for exhibition at the Hagerstown
fair, and he had since been confined to
his bed.
Gen. Baughman was the son of the
late j. William Baughman, who was the
proprietor of the Citizen, local Demo-
cratic newspaper, and was born inbred
erick. He left his studies at st. Mary S

war and joined Company D, LIST Mary
land Confederate Cavalry. After the
war he went to New York to study law,
but the death of his father brought him
back to Frederick to manage the news

He soon became prominent in Mary
land politics, and was closely allied
with the late Senator German in the
leadership of the Democratic party.
He served as president Of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio canal, subsequently
was elected controller of Maryland, and
once ran for Congress against Louis
Nc Comas, who defeated him by a small
plurality. He was an avowed candidate
for the Democratic nomination for gov
ernor of Maryland in 1908. He was a
member of the Metropolitan Club of
Washington, the Maryland Club of Bal

ington, and one daughter, Mrs. Helen
Conley, wife of DR.. C. H. Conley, of
Adamstown, Frederick county.
