James Robinson tried to kill
his sweetheart, Mary Diggs, on
Chestnut street. How sad the
case was. In one of our dailies
the account was allowed the first
page in blazened headlines, and
in another a whole column. How
much room is allowed for the
good things that are dore by our
race? For instance, at one OF
the leading churches swell ban
quet was given and one of the
leading educators of the state of
Missouri, delivered an address,
the pastor took the address to
one of these leading papers to be
published, and what was the re-
suit, he was frankly and fatty
told that they could not use it.
We find ourselves in condition
of which we don't know the ex-
tremes. These terrible press
pictures and bIazened headlines
frequently appearing are disturb
ing TIE minds of all earnest SYM
pathetic thinkers.

that it needs booming just at present

easily, for instance, might they have

- AutO-ViviSeCtiOn :
Do You Deliberately Torture Yourself
Alive by Neglecting Your Stomach?
Remedy Free for the Asking.

Remedy Free for the Asking.
A great outcry has arisen during the
last few years against scientists who
torture dumb animals alive in the in
terests of science. How many people
are there, however, who needlessly tor
ture themselves by causing their stom-
achs to overwork. Dyspepsia, indiges-
ton, heartburn, sleeplessness. loss OF
vim and energy are the inevitable re-
suit
Are you one Of these7
Why not give your stomach a rest?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will relieve
your stomach of all its work and do it
for YOU They are compounded of the
very elements and do the work which
the stomach performs when in normal
health, aseptic pepsin, malt diastase
and like ingredients.
Dr. Richardson in writing q thesis on
treatment of dyspepsia and indigestion,
closes his remarks by saying, For those
suffering from acid dyspepsia, shown
by sour. watery risings, or for f1atulent
dyspepsia shown by gas on stomach.
causing heart trouble and difficult
breathing, as well as for all other forms
of stomach trouble, the safest treat
ment is to take one or two of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. I
advise them because they contain no
harmful drugs, but are composed OF
valuable digestives, which act promptly
upon the food eaten I never knew a
case of Indigestion or even chronic
dyspepsia which Stuart's Tablets would
not reach
Cheap cathartic medicines claiming to
cure dyspepsia and indigestion can
have no effect whatever in actively d.
costing the food, and to call any ca
thartic medicine a cure for indigestion
is misnomer.
Every druggist in the United States
and Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets and they are not only the
"a fest and most successful but the most
scientific of any treatment for fndiges-
ton and stomach troubles
Price soc a box at all druggists.

and daughters and his many friends
are grieved and heartsore. We gather
comfort from the fact that his life was
one of service. Service in the building
of his country and his state. service
to his family and service to his fellow
man. I have come to believe that no
honest effort is ever lost. You may be
overcome in the struggle and men may
say that your efforts have been vain,
but even though the day is lost, If your
fight has been with an honest purpose
it will have it's influence and victory
will come. Many times have countries
been devastated by fire and sword in
the hands of ruthless invaders. and
patriot bands have been destroyed;
but in every such case the patriots
efforts have not been in vain, for In
after years new civilization mas peen
bui1ded on the ruins Of the old, and
young men and women have learned
their lessons of devotion to country
from stories of their fathers whom
their enemy destroyed.
And SO 1 believe that service-hon-
est and faithful-has a force and in
fuence that will live forever. We can
understand that the name of this man
will be perpetuated because his ser
vice in building a home along this ut
tie watercourse has caused 1t to be
named Lynn creek and that name
has been given to schoo! house ana
to a church and to a political division
of township, and yet every other
deed of honest service from the be-
ginning to the end Of his long and use
full life will live and share in framing
the destiny of things with which ne
has come in contact, SO long as time
shall last

She FEARS A REVOLT.
England Is Greatly Disturbed Over
Conditions in India.

London, Feb. 2S.-Great Britain is
gradually coming to realize more and
more the chances of a revolt in India.
It is limited that Beers are melting the
revolt with the ultimate object easily
OWNED. This Interpretation of the
Boer movements in return for British
magnanimity in giving home govern
ment to the Transvaal Is amazing. but
generally credited. even by the gov
ernment'S critics.
On the other hand such reformers
as Lala Lajpat Raj are very anxious to
gain home rule for India. Lala Raj
is self-made man. He is about 40
years Of age, was born in poverty and
had an uphill fight to secure an educa-
ton. While still in his teens he began
to, practice law. He achieved such
success that the present secretary of
state for India designated him as IAN
gfous and social reformer. an educa-
tionalist and philanthropist, and a po-
litical leader. He is highly respected
throughout India.
Mr.. Raj holds that che who sewers
his religion from his politics snaps tho
chain that binds earth to heaven" He
always has preached self-help and
self-dependence, and had for his slo-
gan, Tho man Of any country who
pretends that foreign domination il
for it's good is either a knave or a
fool" He believes that the English
are in India for material gain. He
strongly advocates home rule for Hin
dustan. frankly denouncing the Eng
lish regime as having economically
drained India so that today it Is a
country of famine and plague, which
during the last 25<years has whitened
the land with the bleaching bones of
20. 600. 900 dead Hindus.
Mr.. Raj has travelled extensively,
and In 1905 made tour of America.
He Is in no sense an anarchist. Mr..
Raj gained such mower and became SO
formidable in India that last year he
was kidnapped from his home in La
hore, Punjab, spirited across the con-
tinent In a special train and struggled
into Rangoon, the capital of Birma,
where he was confined in a fortress as
state prisoner. This only tended to
increase his popularity among the
masses, who looked upon him as a
martyr and almost worshipped him.
On the 9Th of last November Mr.. Raj
was released and quietly transported
to his native home, after being incar-
cerated a little over six months
The British war office is thoroughly
alive to the situation. Orders have
been issued to the officers of the auxil-
larry forces throughout Great Britain,
asking that they state whether mo-
Obligation is impossible.
These forces are instructed to be
prepared to move mmediately on re-
ceipt of Geographic orders. They
must keep their adjutants Informed
Of their movements and must not GO
beyond the reach of kilograms.

ALWAYS HUNGRY
Ordinary Food Never Satisfied Hel

A young lady in MINI. writes Of her
experience:
After a disheartening struggle for
five years against the Ills attendant on
malassimilation of food, I am at last
on the high road to recovery and feel
impel1ed to give credit where it is due.
Some years ago 1 had long ILL
ness due to stomach trouble. Every
ing pain or a dull heavy misery that
was even worse. I weighed but 90
pounds, was almost hopeless as L
found that poorly nourished body
means lack of brain power and ambi-
ton.
Il was always ravenously hungry
and while I could not eat the appetiz-
ing dishes on the table, I longed for
them That longing is what prompted
me to try Grape-Nuts. The food had
a favour that I liked-rich without
being heavy.
"I left off my daily laxative as I
found I did not need it for Grape
Nuts was so easily digested, constipa-
ton soon, disappeared. 1 found, too.
Nuts and continued to eat it.
1T forms my breakfast exclusively
and I also eat 1t with eggs and fruit
for my other meals. I have gained 10
pounds in less than a year and that Ia
nothing compared with my gain in
strength and courage.
81 can now eat a hearty meal which
satisfies my appetite and it does not

PoPULARIzING THE OCEAN.
In the Middle West-One Advantage
of the Sailing of the Fleet.

The fleet is off, amid walls from
the New York Sun, cheers from the
nations of Europe and expressions OF
profound curiosity on the part of the
fishes. Where it Is going, they know
but why it is going. neither, flesh,
find out for certain. Nevertheless
with but half an eye, a fellow can
foresee some pretty desirable advan-
tages. that are bound to come from
the great peace cruise with ammu-
milton enough on board to blow up
the entire Orient.)
For one thing, It will advertise the
ocean. Out in the Middle West,
where the people are, few have leis-
ure to think of the ocean. Some cease
to believe in it. You can walk around
all day in those parts without get
ting your feet wet, so the very idea OF
raging main is lapsing into Lethe-
like oblivion. The middle westerners
remain Indifferent, consequently, to
sea power. They know, of course, that
Admirals Pumpernickel, Cafeaulaitt,
Chianti and Chiliconcarne cherish
hopes of one day marrying our At
lantic coast, but they're not much
worried about what happens to the
"effete east Now, however, they get
daily tidings from the "vasty deep
and bid fair to take it seriously.
Moreover, the exodus of the feet
will tend to double our navy. as well
as to augment our coast defenses- Al
most any time there may arise some
tin with Switzerland or Sierra Leone
that will make US shake in our ship
less boots A great fleet in the Paci-
f1c means also q great fleet in the At
lantfc-and lots of huge guns on
shore besides.
Nor is this all. Languor in our navy
yards will raise up a legion of pa
triots to howl for more ships, more
repairs" and more uniforms to re-
spect. We're beginning to find out
that the business end of the navy isn't
| to be sneezed at.

CURTIS OR NO CHIEF.
Kaw Indians Insist on Having Senator
as Tribal Head.

washington, Feb. 2s.-Unless Sena-
tor Curtis wants the job himself. there
will be no chief appointed for the Kaw
tribe in Oklahoma to succeed CHIEF
wah-S hung-Gah, deceased.
1.-THE Kaws have all been allotted
their lands and have received all their
tribal funds from the government,
said Commissioner Leuppo today.
There is no pressing need for an
other chief, that is. so far as the fed
eral government is concerned. OF
course, if the Kaws want to honor
Senator Curtis. a member OF their
dered them, I am willing to appoint
him chief. But 1t will be only an hon.
orary position so far as the Indian
office is concerned, as we have no fur
ther business to transact"
