Not Too Abrupt.

Radical changes in clothing are sell
dom safe, at least so the old time
grandmothers held. The putting off OF
winter underwear was likely to be
gradual and prolonged process. That
this belief in deliberate adjustment
was widespread and inclusive is shown
in w. p. Frith's story of his life. He
was engaged in painting a portrait Of
Mrs. Birt. the wife of a prominent
business man. who used to bring her
little dog to share her sittings.
Mr.. Brit was great lover of dogs,
but he entertained strong aversion to
dog collars, so l was surprised one day
when Mrs. Brit brought her favorite
dog. Ducky. to see a band around the
little animals neck.
Il thought you objected to dog col.
lars, Mrs. Brit" said. '''I see Ducky
sports one today"
ooh, no, that's not a dog collar" re-
turned the lady. IT'S only piece of
flannel. The poor dear has had a
dreadful cold and a sore throat. She
has worn flannel night and day"
Surely that is too narrow to do any
good. The strip is no wider than a
collar"
"Oh. it was wider, of course. We
have gradually lessened it. She is
leaving it off by degrees"

The farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil OF foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
inatiOn of disease throughout the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way it cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellngs,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and respondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter risings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider
able number of them, indicate that you are
suffering from biliousness, torpid or lazy
liver with the usual accompanying indi-
gestion, or dyspepsia and their attendant
arrangements.

CHINA TO STUDY AMErIcA's PROGRESS.
viii be Among Nations who VIII Have Rep
resentatives Here to Learn Lessons which
the jamestown Exposition has to Teach.

China, the sleeping celestial kingdom
will have Representative at the
jamestown Exposition. An official
letter received at the Exposition head
quarters, in Norfolk, frcm Robert
Bacon, assistant secretary of State at
Washington, says that / American
Consul General Ragsdale, at Tien-
Tsin, China, has been informed off
cially by the Chinese government that
China would send representatives to
the exposition. The representatives
will be instructed to gather all posi-
BILE information about the progress of
America as shown by the Exposition.
Major A. M. Wheeler, chief of the
department of exhibits, says that
Japan is to be similarly represented,
and that is the custom of all the big
European countries to send represen-
tatiyes, quite aside from official com.
missions to study the American exposi-
tions, at St. Louis he recalled that
French, Austrian and German repres-
entatives went personally to each sep
arate exhibit, buying extensively all
manner of articles sending them home
He was surprised at the thoroughness
with which this work was performed.
In addition they obtained all the re-
ports of State commissions, on the
exposition. 1t is expected that mer-
part in the growing trade of the
United States with China, which has
been growing since the open door
policy, has been applied to many ad
ditionaI ports, will be spurred to greater
activity as a result of this latest news
fran the Far East.

Evolution of Chemistry.

The first chemists were the alchem-
lists, who for hundreds of years vainly
tried to make gold by compromising va
rious chemicals. Chemistry was intro
duced into Spain by the Moors in 1850.
and the Chinese and Egyptians claimed
an early acquaintance with it. Howev-
er, chemistry was not science until
the seventeenth century. Boerhaave
was the first to combine the study Of
chemistry with medicine. and since
then it's evolution has been rapid.

Italians of the % captured at Browns
town, near Pittson, on Thursday last,
were held on the several charges
which have been preferred against

from custody, and four others who
have since been arrested were COM
mitted to Jail to await further in
vestigation.
The hearing was held in the corri-
dors of the county prison, at which
time there was unfolded a tale of rob-
berry, attempted murder and general
terrorism that proved astounding to
those unfamiliar with the actions of
the Black Hand element in the upper
end of this county. Witnesses testified
that the order had a membership of
500. with branches at Buffalo, Roches-

DEATH DELAYS
THAW'S TRIAL
Wife of Juror Dead and Case Halted
Until After Funeral
Jury GIVEN THEIR LIBERTY

New York. Feb 15.-Another tragic
,hapter in the history of the Thaw
White episode was written when grim
death stepped in to halt the famous
trial in its fourth week. The wife of
Juror No. IL. Mrs. Joseph B. Bolton,
passed away soon after her husband
had reached ner bedside. He had
been summoned from the court room
where the trial had been in progress
for less than Is minutes. The formal
announcement of Mrs. Bottoms death
was made in court and Justice Fitz-
gerald Immediately ordered an ad-
journment of the case until next Mon
day morning The court also ordered
with the consent of counsel that the
other IL jurymen be given their lib
erty and no longer be held together.
He admonisEed the jurors to be guild
ed by their honor and their oaths and
not to read the newspapers or discuss
the Thaw case with anybody.
DR.. Britton D. Evans superintendent
of the New Jersey State Hospital for
the Insane, was recalled as an alien
ist to continue his direct examination.
The witness was asked to detail the
conversation he had on various occa-
sions with Thaw in the Tombs. He
had already declared these conversa'
tions to be an essential feature in his
conclusion that Thaw was of unsound
mind at the time of the doctors first
three visits to him, the last being on
~ ~ h.o6 y.
drawn his objections to the statements
by Tkaw going into the evidence and
DR.. Evans was about to detail the
events of his first visit on August 4
when the summons for Juror Bolton
came. Captain Ricketts,, of the court
police squad, was seen to whisper to
Justice Fitzgerald. Bolton seemed tt
divine his mission and moved uneasily
in his chair.
A recess was taken and the juror
still accompanied by two of his asso
ciates and two court officers, hurried
to the little home in the Bronx where
Mrs. Bolton was being kept alive only
by the use of oxygen. She died soor
after her husbands arrival.

reasons for his opinion. and durin!
