YOUNGSTOWN, O., Nov. 16-The
jury in the case Of Mrs. Jennie Ander-
son. charged with the murder Of her
-year-old daughter, Elsie Anderson,
on July 1, returned a verdict Of man

bear the ordeal stoically, but when the
full significance Of the verdict was
grasped she collapsed.
The testimony showed that the little
girl died from the effects OF 20 or 50
sores and wounds or her body, the
breaking OF both her arms and oher
injuries.
Mrs. Anderson was accused Of beat
ing the child with a stick with nail
in each end. and a wound over the eye
indicated that the child had been struck
by nail or some other sharp instru-
ment.

Tricked by Dyspepsia
The Doctor Couldn't Tell Where the
Trouble Lay.

Trouble Lay.
For the past seven years I have
been a victim Of dyspepsia and chronic
constipation and have consulted the
most noted specialists to be found on
diseases of this character. None, how
ever, seemed to locate the difficulty or
give relief. In addition to this medical
treatment I have resorted to the use
of many remedies and have given them
faithful trial. but all to no purpose.
Upon the recommendation of a close
friend, I purchased a SOC package CT
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and in less
than FIVE days noticed that I was re-
ceiving more benefit than from any
remedy I had used before. i continued
to use the tablets after each meal for
one month and BY that time my stom-
ach was in a healthy condition, capable
Of Gigesting anything which my in
creasing appetite demanded.
I have not experienced any return
of my former trouble, though three
months have elapsed since taking your
remedy"
We. wish that you could see with
your own eyes the countless other
bona-fde signed letters from grateful
men and women. all over the land who
had suffered years Of agony with dys-
pepsia. tried every known remedy and
consulted eminent specialists without
result until they gave Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets a trial Like the doctor
above, they couldn't locate the seat of
the trouble.
Dyspepsia is a disease which has
long bafiied physicians. So difficult of
location is the disease that cure seems
next to miraculous. There is only one
way to treat dyspepsia--to supply the
elements which nature has ordained
to perform this function and to cause
them to enter the digestive organs.
supplying the fluids which they lack.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets alone rll
these requirements, as is shown by the
fact that 10000 physicians in the
United States and Canada unite i'm
recommending them to their patients
for stomach disorders.
We do not claim or expect Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets to cure anything bu.
disordered conditions Of stomach and
other digestive organs. but this they
never fail TO do. They work upon the
inner lining Of the stomach and intes-
tines. stimulate the gastric glands and
aid in the secretion of juices neces-
sary to digestion.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents a box
One box will frequently effect a per-
feet cure. II in doubt and wish more
adequate proof send us your name and
address and we will gladly mail you

STATE INsURES LIFE
Nearly Half the Business In New
Is Zealand Written by the Colony.
North American Review

North American 4heYleW.
W.. Reeves, formerly member Of
the parliament Of New Zealand and
now high commissioner of New Zealand
in England, says that when the gov
eminent of New Zealand entered the
field of insurance business, which it
did without interfering. except by COM
petition, with the business of private
insurance companies, it was making an
experiment, in all three branches Of
the insurance business, life insurance,
accident insurance and fire insurance.
The experiment has been pronounced
success, while at the same time private
enterprise in the insurance business has
advanced, developed and prospered
alongside Of the growth Of the govern
ment life insurance department. Mr..
Reeves says:
.tsiAt the end Of the first year of its
life the sum assured in the office was
a little over $1,O00,O00. In five years it
was not far short of $4,000, 900, and at
the end of ten years was approaching
$22, 100000. It's twentieth year saw the
sum assured in it exceeded $35 5000, 900,
and at the end Of 1904, nearly. thirty
five years after it's birth, the total had
grown to more than $50,000,000. The
policies in force numbered 44,l94. AS
already mentioned, this large business
has NOT been gained by the exclusion
of private competition from the field
The government office does nearly, but
not quite, half the life insurance OF
the colony. Its chief rival is. that
wealthy and admittedly well managed
institution, the Australian Mutua
Provident society," 80.

PAIN IN THE JOINTS
ONE OF THE ToRTUREs or
RHEUMATISM.
Pain and Swelling Cease When DtI
Williams Pink Pills Make
New Blood.

The first sign of rheumatism is hel
quently pain and swelling In one Of
the joints. If not combated in the
blood, which is the seat of the diseaseI
the poison spreads, affecting other joints
and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism atJ
tacks the heart and Is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured
Williams Pink Pills. These pills expell,
the poison from the blood and restore
the system, so that the poisonous matter
is passed off as nature intended.
Mrs. I. T. Pitcher, Of No. $50 Nom
mouth street, Newark, N. j., suffered
for about three years from rheumatism
before she found this cure. She says !:
:" It began with queer feeling In my
fingers. In little time 1t seemed as
though the finger joints had humps on
them and could not get my gloves on.
"Then it grew worse and spread tto
my knees. I could not stand up and I
could not sleep nights. My suffering
. was more than can describe. I took g
great deal Of medicine, but nothing even
gave me relief until tried DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
IT read an account Of a cure in case
that was exactly like mine and my hus-I
band got me some Of the pills. took
them for three weeks before I really felt
better but they finally cured me. -
Mr.. Pitcher, who is veteran and q
member of E. D. Morgan Post, No. 3O7
Of New York, substantiates his wife's
statement and says that she now walks
without difficulty, whereas year ago
he was compelled to push her about in q
! wheeled chair. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Pitcher are enthusiastic III their praise
of Dr.. Williams Pink Pills.
| These wonderful pills cured Mrs.
Pitcher by driving the rheumatic poison
| out Of her blood. In the same way, they
drive out the germs Of other diseases
and build up the blood to carry health
and strength to every part Of the body.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills have cured
the worst cases Of loodlessness, indiges-
ton, influenza, headaches, lumbago,
sciatica, neuralgia, nervousness, spinal
weakness, and the special ailments
of girls aud women whose blood
supply becomes weak, scanty or irregu-
lar. For further information, address
