IN THE SPANISH
AMERICAN WAR.

During the Spanish American War,
many of our soldiers suffered severe
ly from cramp in the stomach and
bowels, due in most cases to the
change of climate and the water
they were obliged to drink.
Mr.. Geo. A. Lake, of Dennison,
Texas, gives an interesting account
of how he came to the relief of some
of the men in his regiment - Just
as l was starting for the war;" says
Mr. Lake, Mr.. Davis gave me a
large bottle of Sloanis Liniment. /
used it in our troop at Camp Mobrey
for cramps and dysentery among the
men. 1t took finely and lots of the
boys l.. LIST Tex. Cav L. s. V, will
never forget the name of Sloan's
Liniment. One case in particular
was our bugler, Fred Ormsley; he
was cramped until he could hardly
stand it. | gave him a dose of
Sloan's Liniment and in five minutes
he was up and ready to go on with
the troop
Every druggist carries Sioan's
Liniment in stock. You can get it
in 25c., SOC or S1.00 sized bottles.
Its good thing to have in the house
for rheumatism, toothache, sore
throat. asthma and any pain or stiff
ness.

We are dangerously near permit
ting -blooded murderers to
escape on all occasions. The more
shocking and brutal the murder,
the more easy it is to plead insanity.
Once the plea of insanity is entered,
expert physicians can be secured
to help it along All men are more
or less crazy at periods in their
lives. Pick up the foolish and
absurd things that even the most
brilliant men DO; from a chain of
these incidents; make them the
groundwork of a hypothetical ques-
ton, and an alienist viii tell you
at once that a person who does
these things Is more or less insane.
We need statute to define the
difference between medical insanity
and legal insanity. We also need
a statute that provides when a per-
son is acquitted of a charge on the
ground of insanity that that person
must thereafter be presumed to be
insane. and confined in an asylum

his present sanity Mamphis Conn

ASKS FREEDOM FROM WIFE
WHO ADMIRED LIEUTENANT.
Husband Finds Photo in Drawer,
and Trouble Begins.

PATERSON, Dec. 1.-THE photo
graph of a staggering, athletic and
handsome young lieutenant of the Ger
man army plays a prominent part in
the suit for annulment of marriage
which Charles Silver, of 6S East Main
street, is bringing against his wife.
Rose Silver, who resides at "a North
West street. They were married last
September. but their brief matrimonial
career has been so stormy that the
HUSBAND now seeks a separation on
grounds of fraud.
One day when Silver was going
through a bureau drawer, in which
his wife kept her fineries. he came
across the picture of a strapping young
German lieutenant, hidden deep be-
meath other articles. The photograph
showed the young officer in full rega>
liza, gold tassels, medals, sword, badge
of the double eagle and everything
else that goes to fit up one of the fin
est of Kaiser Williams officers.
This picture had never been shown
to Silver during the courtship, and
when he confronted his wife and asked
her to explain, she confessed that she
had had a sweetheart on the otter side
of the ocean

BUTToNED-oN COLLARS

Have you noticed the very latest
wrinkle in collars and cuffs to be worn
with the coat suit? They button on
not on the band, as they have always
done-but in full view at the back of
the collar.
No more wrinkling and flying up of
linen and lingerie collars on a windy
day. The new touch anchors the collar
firmly to the coat and the buttons
themselves are used as ornament.
Both sailor and Dutch shapes are
used for these collars, which are made
up either in fine lingerie materials or
in heavy weaves of linen, either white
or ecru.
The lingerie collars are worked some
times with hand embroidered designs.
Again, they have inserts of lace or ba-
tiste medallions, sometimes combined
with a bit of handwork.
One good looking set had a narrow
pisquot edge of Irish crochet about an
eighth of an inch deep. Above it ran
a narrow vinelike design, about a quar-
ter of an inch deep, to outline the col
lar Just far enough above the edge
not to crowd it We're three two-inch
buttonholes bound with heavy white
silk. These fastened over three large
fiat buttons of Irish crochet sewed to
the back of the coat, so the collar fit
ted smoothly.
