Rockefeller Aids Revival.

A Cleveland, (ohio), dispatch
of Aug 81, says: Two Cleveland
men, workers in John D. r. exc
feller's church, will attend revi-
val meeting at Hazel Green, Ky,
Mr.. Rockefeller to pay all ex
penses. They are II. NJ. Briggs,
rug MERCHANT, and Cornelius Ma
loney, attorney.
The invitation comes from H. j.
Derthick, of Hazel Green, who
was in Cleveland last summer and
spoke at prayer-meeting at the
Euclid avenue Baptist church.
Mr. Rockefeller was present. The
religious fervor of Mr.. Derthick's
speech charmed the man of mil
lions and he asked that the noun
taineer be presei ted to him. The
result was cordial churchly
riendsnip.

The Sensible View Of 1t.

Thousands Of Americans can
readily recall the collec-
tion of herbs, roots and barks
which grandmother brought into
use for nearly every ailment.
Many pioneer home had no other
physician than these same sensi-
ste. brainy, self reliant women who
pridet; yourselves on their kI owl-
edge of t6eryeatment Of common
and even complicastd ailments and
whose gossip wac ofteneso the ex-
change of proven recipes.
Tnose same self reliant home
doctors are practicing to-day all
over this broad land. The moth
ers of this and all other countries
have in the past and will in the
future take care of the ordinary
simple ailments incident to every
family with their own favorite
remedies
Herbs. roots and barks are no
longer used in their crude state by
these mothers, but the recipes
which the pioneer mother found
dependable have been developed
nto p nplietary remedies and each
nome toda, has it's little collection
of proven medicines, which are
used judiciousiy and effectively in
ninety nine ont of hundred cases.
For instance, when a child is fever
ish and fretful, has sour stom-
ach and constipated bowels, the
wel-intormed mother needs no one
to tell her that 10 get at, the seat
OF vhe trouble she has Only TO use
remedy which will sweeten the,
stomach and gently move the
bowels. This she does with a
small dose of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, a reliable medicine made
under the formula of a well-known
physician, from the same herbs
which have been u ed Tor ages by
the pioneer moIh,r as well as by
physicians all over the world, with
the addition of Pepsin, the best of
all modern digestants.

DR.. BIGGERs HAS TROUBLES
Wife Sues for Divorce and He Loses
Thousand.

PENDLETON, Nov. 24.-Sam Endi-
colt and Roy Stewart, when arraigned
before Justice of the Peace Parkes
upon a charge of larceny, waived ex-
animation and We're bound over to the
circuit court in the sum of $500. A
cash bono given for each of the &C
cused.
DIR. G. w. Biggers, who had the two
men arrested several days ago appear
I'd in court and stated to his attor-
ney that he did not want to prose-
cute. However, upon that subject
John McCourt, acting district attor-
ney. had some ideas of his own. He
informed Biggers that the case against
Stewart was being conducted by the
| state of Oregon and that Biggers had
| already placed himself on record in the
matter when he swore to the COM
| plant charging Stewart and EndicOtt
Win having rODDeQ HlIl u Ills $I,OVV
certificate Of deposit in a gambling
game.
1t is rumored that Biggers' reluct-
ance to prosecute was due to the
fact that Stewart, Endicott and others
had prevailed upon him to give it
up by threatening him with various
things should he testify against them.
