The newspapers and medical journals
recently have had much to say relative
to "a famous milhonaires, offer of "A mil
lion dollars for a new stomach.
This great multi-milIonairew was too busy
to worry about the condition of his stom-
ach, He allowed his dyspepsia to run
from bad to worse until in the end it be-
came incurable.
His misfortune serves as warning to
others.
Every one who suffers with dyspepsia

destroys the function of the gastric fluids.

disordered stomachs, indigestion and dys-
pepsia.

turn your money if you are not more
than satisfied with the result.
Price, % cents. Only at our store, or

1t was a so-called farmers" Jury
that brought in the verdict making
Judge Lands fine of $29 ,24O, 900 in
the original case possible, and John
s. Miller of the defense was prompt
in calling the courts attention to the
fact that the panel then present for
the new trial contained but three
Chicagoans. although sixty per cent
Of the population within the jurisdic-
ton of the court lives within Cook
county.
1T looks like design, or If not de-
sign, it looks like a strange coinci-
dence," commented Judge Anderson.
whereupon T. C. Mcmillan and r. C.
Jones. the jury commissioners in
sisted with vigor that the latter was
the case; that the panel had been
drawn exactly as in other cases. This
the court later admitted to be a fact.
District Attorney Sims and his spe-
cial assistant. James H. Wilkerson,
quoted authorities to show that all a
defendant can legally claim is a fair,
honest and intelligent jury to try his
case WilkersOn contended there was
no statute to compel the jury COM

patton into consideration

aside. will instruct the jury COM
mission to put in $50 names of men a
good proportion of whom shall be good
business men from Chicago and Cook
county.
1T so happens that this case is tried
in a district composed of an enormous
commercial city and several rural dis
tricts. The country may have purer
air, a higher moral standard and
greater intelligence than the city, but
that is an open question.
However. am not going outside
the issue when | say that if the jury
were composed partly of business men
who would realize the great industrial
and commercial phase of the case a
more satisfactory and just verdict may
be reached"
On motion of Mr.. Miller. Judge
Anderson said he would hear argu-
ments of counsel today as to whether
shipments or settlements of freight
charges constitute the offense. The
government will contend that each
shipment of oil on which an alleged
rebate was paid forms separate vio-
lation of the law"
The present proceedings constitute
rehearing of the case in which the
Standard Oil company of Indiana,
subsidiary company OF the Standard
Oil company of New Jersey (the par
ent of all the Standard Oil cOmpanies)
was fined s29 24O, 900 by Judge Lands
for rebating The famous fine was
imposed aug. 3, 1907, and on July %.
