Here is d place where more fortunate institutions may prove that 'all the world is akin in offering whatever room at their dis posal to their unfortunate neighbor. Any town or city in the south ought to be proud of securing this institution which is doing so much for its poor and destitute. Not only the large number of children now in the institution, but there are applications now on file in their office from every southern state. An offering now will De the means of furnishing food and home for these orphan and destitute children. One days delay will mean suffering.

ORPHANS MADE HELPLESS
 BY FINANCIAL TROUBLE
6-12- fri fly

Limestone, Tenn, September 15.- Especial )-Bethesda Industrial School and Orphanage of this place is in a most serious condition, owing to the financial stringency. Last May the the local bank failed, just after the institution had purchased a large farm and had begun the erection of new buildings, tying the institution up com pletely. Rev. William T. Morgan, the president, has been i'll practically all summer, making it impossible for him to go into the field in the interest Of his institution The financial strin- gency has cut down their offerings un- til this week they are facing the terri ble fact of being sold out of home. with no place to go.
 It is bad enough for small family to be homeless, but much more terri ble when almost hundred children are deliberately turned into the world with no place to go, with no roof over their heads. This institution is doing one of the most heroic works ever un- dertaken in the south, if not in the entire United States. It is the only institution which claims to have never turned an orphan or destitute child from it's doors. The founder and pres ent head of the institution began this work five years ago without a dollar in the world, and cared for almost 100 children and young people representing every religious faith and creed. The matrons and teachers come from the different denominations.
 An appeal is made for funds to be sent for the relief of this institution. and every one reading this Is most

Common Sense
 And A Tablet
Do Away With Dyspepsia, Stomach Trouble and Make Meals
 A Pleasure.

When your stomach goes on strike and mass meetings of indignation are held all over your body then 1t IS that you should sit up and take notice.
 It is clearly and only question of common sense-is this thing called Dys- pepsia. Take away. by abuse, over eat ing, excesses and high living, the things which the stomach needs and you have dyspepsia and indigestion; then other maladies follow these-this Is common sense
 The stomach is willing enough but you won't let it do it's work. You take away the materials which are so necessary for it to use.
 Give back these materials and dys- pepsla and indigestion flee and the whole machinery of man begins slowly to move and do it's work.
 What the stomach needs is nerve force, fluids for it's digestive glands. nourish- ment and power All these necessities 1t takes from the blood. If dyspepsia gives nothing to the blood, the blood gives nothing to the stomach.
 This is common sense, also, pure, sim pie and unalloyed.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are common sense pressed by high power into tab let's In these tablets are powerful es- sences which go into the stomach, digest food stop gas making, prevent decaying of food enrich the gastric juices, are absorbed by the blood and thus give 1t strength to furnish a better fluid for digesting the next meal. Every physi- clan knows what comprises these tab- lets every druggist has the same knowl- edge also. They are natural common sense digesters which do the work for the stomach quickly and well. Every drug store carries them, soc per pack age. Send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package by mail free. Address F. A. Stuart Co.,, 150 Stuart Bldg, Marshall Mich.

WARD CONFESSES ID PHILLIPS MURDER Faced In Jail By Daughter Of
 Dead Man PLEADS SELF DEFENSE Elihu Perkins Falls Forty Feet On Rocks in Quarry and Brains Are
 Dashed Out Near
 Gadsden.
PLEADS SELF DEFENSE

Gadsden, September 15.-(Speeial )--John Ward, who is in the county jail here for the murder of a man named Phil lips about five years ago, but who was only recently apprehended, today con- fessed to the crime, although up to this time he had stoutly maintained his in- nocence
 A daughter of the dead man was pres ent when the crime was committed and identified the prisoner as the guilty party. Faced with the plain statement from the girl the prisoner saw the uselessness of further evasion and confessed, but con- tends that he acted in self-defense.
 The killing was witnessed by sister and mother of the girl who heard the confession today, and their testimony will be available as they are both alive and reside in the state of Georgia.
 Elihu Perkins, an empIoye of the La Garde Lime and Stone company, yes terday fell from ledge into the quarries and suffered injuries from which he died shortly afterward.
 Perkins was an expert wall man and had charge of the blasting. He was pre- pairing to make a shot when he made misstep and was precipitated into the quaries, a distance of about 40 feet. He fell head-first on the rocRs and dashed out his brains. He lived until medical aid arrived, but nothing could be done for him. The accident occurred at o'clock in the afternoon. The quarries where he was employed are seven miles east of this city.

of 1s45 that they received but little mod ifieation when presented to the legisla- ure and a comparison with the national bank act would show mared similarity in many sections.

 Banks in a Panic.
 After showing the wonderful progress Ohio was making in farming, manufac- turing, mining, etc., Governor Chase, in his annual message in 1858, spoke of the operations of these banks during the panic of 1S57 IIe said:
 Tt will be seen from the foregoing statement, that the condition of these banks, so far as it is tested by con- parison of specie and other cash means with immediate liabilities. was stronger in November than it had been in August The laws under which these institu- tions were organized were framed with special reference to the security of the billholder All branches of the state bank were made securities for the circula- ton of each, and the convertibility of the notes of others is required to be guar anteed by pledge of state, or United States bonds. These salutary provisions have protected the people against serious losses from the depreciation of the notes of the banks organized under them, and it is highly creditable to their man. agement that they have passed through the recent crisis (panic of 1S5O, made doubly perous to many of them by the embezzlement of their cash balances and collection bills in New York, without a suspension of specie payment"
 If a single state by small tax on it's state bank and branches can safely and successfully keep a state issue in circulation as money to the upbuilding of the people and state, why should mol the federal government levy a similar tax creating a safety fund.- to promptly pay depositors and thus prevent sus- picion, financial hysteria and ''runs' or banks?
