don't give a patch whether this is an
ad or not, said the editor. 1t contains
good advice, and. what is more. every
statement is backed by the Cooper Phar-
macal Company, and they are a reputable
and responsible concern. The person with
a bad stomach should practice deep stom-
ach breathing, and work violently the
stomach muscles: should indulge in as
much outdoor exercise as possible and
should refrain altogether from strong
drugs. At the first symptom of indiges-
ton, constipation or biliousness. go to a
druggist and have him mix one ounce
Prosene Compound: Compound Tincture
of Cinchona, one ounce; Sherry Wine
half a pint To be taken a teaspoonful
before meals and at bedtime and then
you can say gOodby to stomach suffer-
ing. Just as good way is 10 buy the
ingredients and do the mixing yourself
and you may get off little cheaper
But the cost is trifle. while the re-
suits in long standing cases ofaindiges-
ton and constipation are wonderful. The
effect is wholly different to that expert
enced from taking laxatives and dyspep-
STA dope.

TELLS STORY Of SHOOTING
Frenchman Says He Killed Brother
in-Law in Self Defense
Quarreled With Wife.

Paris, April 2S.-Paul Roy, the
Frenchman who is being examined
here In connection with the alleged
statement made by his wife that he
murdered her brother. George A
Carkins, in New Hampshire last jan
uary, was cross-examined today by
Magistrate Boucard regarding the de-
tails of the shooting. These Roy re-
hearsed at length. He declared he
fired at Carkins only after Carkins had
shot at him. Roy said he believed his
life was in danger when he left the
house, and in fear of an ambush he
reloaded his revolver.
Roy, who produced as an exhibit a
coat in which there was a shot hole,
stated that during a dispute which
originated because of a hat his wife
wore, to which he objected. he had
been abused by Carkins. Finally he
told his wife that he had left his posi-
ton, family and everything to marry
her, and as he was not appreciated he
thought it would be better to secure a
divorce. His wife rejoined that she
also preferred a divorce. that she had
lost her reputation for Roy, who was
"a low blackguard's son, a thieving
1horse dealer"
Roy declared that he then called her
an adventures. speaking in French,
but repeating the term in English at
her request.

FIRE DESTROYS A HOME
For a Time 1t Looked as Though the
Whole Block Would Go-Send-
ing of Alarm DELAYED.

Park City. April ga fire broke out
last evening about o'clock at the home
of John Dunn, on the corner of Second
street and Woodside avenue, and for a
time 1t looked as though the whole block
at least would surely be destroyed. but
the members of the fire department, to-
gether with other men who ran to the
blazing building, worked hard and heroic
ally under the direction of Chief Morse
and the fire was checked before any
other place could get lighted.
The fire was started by lighted can
die. which caught onto clothing in a
could be taken down and thrown into
the street an uncomfortable blaze was
sweeping through the whole house.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dunn. who were both
home at the time of the fire. lost no time
in getting the children out, and yet it
is almost a mystery how it was posi-
bic for them all to be saved.
Owing to the Independent Telephone
company not being able to blow the fire
whistle from their office, the alarm was
not sounded for fully ten minutes after
the fire was discovered, as the Bell COM
pany'S operators refused to take signal
from the operators OF the other com
Dany, whereas if the whistle had been
blown when the first news of the fire
reached the telephone girls the house
would no doubt have been saved. with
but very little damage being done to
it.
This condition of affairs should not be
and the fire chief says that he will see
that nothing Of the kind ever occurs
again.
The house was owned by Jack Green
and was well insured, while the Dunn
family lost everything, and today a COM
mittee went through the city on col
Iecting tour to help relieve the unfortu-
nate people.
The infant daughter of Mir. and Mrs.
John c. Gleason died yesterday afternoon

and the officer declares that if any are
caught violating this law 1t viii so hard
with them.
