A Bad Guess.
John Hawtrey was one of England's

John Hawtrey was one of England's
famous whipping schoolmasters. At
Elton In autumn the small boys used
to buy chestnuts and roast them in
shovel over the fire. One day boy
named f., who was great favorite Of
Hawtrey's, had lot of chestnuts and
as special favor was allowed to make
use Of the pupil room fire while tho
boys were all studying. Hawtrey was
going in and out of the room while
we were working, and on one occasion,
coming in rather quietly, he caught
sight Of f. kneeling over the fire ar
ranging his chestnuts. The boys posi-
ton was Irresistible to any lover Of tho
art Of chastisement. Not seeing his
face and supposing it was one Of the
other boys stealing the chestnuts, John
Hawtrey quietly took his cane from
his desk and, creeping forward on tip
toe, gave the wretched F. a most ire
mendous whack. The boy jumped up
with yell, his hands elapped behind
him. Then the tutor saw who he was
and said, embracing him:
. ~Oh, my poor boy! ! am so sorry!
1 thought it was another boy-stealing
your chestnuts."
we. of course, were all delighted and
soared with laughter II ondon9, Graphic.

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need sufficient amount Of
GOOD wholesome food and more than
thls YOU need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
ran YOU strengthen your stomach II
It Is weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat a sufflc-
lent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and It must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do 1t,
Won must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do Is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak 1t needs help;
YOU must help 1t by giving 1t rest,
and Kodol will do that.

NEW YORK. Jan. S.-Miss Ida Sim
onton, the former close friend and as
sociatc Of Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, is
expected to be one of the most sen!
sational witnesses for the prosecution
at the trial OF the murderer of Stand
ford White. Upon several occasions
Miss SImonton has publicly declared
that she wotild "fix Thaw" and that
her testimony would have much to do
In sending him to the electric chair.
The testimony of Miss Simonton
was very much desired by District
Attorney Jerome during the first trial,
but the young woman could not be
found and was reported to have been
in Africa. Now she has returned with
a blare of newspaper trumpets. Miss
sin,onton was Evelyn Nesbits closest
friend before the marriage of the lat.
ter with the Plttsburg millionaire. She
was called to Europe to bring Mrs.
C. ]. Holman, Evelyn Thaw's mother,
back to America at the time Evelyn
and Thaw we're making a merry tour
of the continent. 1t is declared that
Miss simonton is familiar with many
of Thaw's escapades and alleged bru-
talities and that the story she will
have to tell upon the witness Stand
will be spicy one.
Martin w. Littleton, chief COUNSEL
for Thaw, scouts the idea that Miss
simonton's testimony will have any
important bearing on the trial, and
declares that her public statement that
she would "fx Thaw' is sufficient to
condemn her testimony in advance as
being inspired by malice. 1t is known
that detectives for the defense have
of late been engaged in ferreting out

81 Subjects Are
Named for Solons
To Consider

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Jan. s.
Governor Dawson yesterday evening
set at rest all speculation as to the
subjects he will embrace in his call
of an extra session of the legislature,
when he issued his formal call desig-
mating January 2S as the time for the
session to convene. The call en-
braces thirty.seven subjects in all, be-
ginning with the limitation of levies
by public bodies. which was the pri-
mary cause of the extra session being
called, followed by the proposition TO
put county officers upon straight sal
airy and turning the fees they now re.
ceive into the public treasury and
many other subjects that have seem
ed to him meet and proper to be CON
sidered at this time.
Following are the subjects which
the governor has designated for the
consideration Of the legislature in ex.
ira session:
/. To limit the amount Of rate Of
levies for taxation by county courts,
eli boards Of education and the author,
itics Of cities, town and villages; and
to regulate the laying of such leyles
and the collection aud disbursement oi
the taxes arising from such leyies and
onier funds.

During the Coroner's Inquest yester-
day afternoon, when Peter Urban was
