Not a "Cure-AIl"
Separate Remedies, Each
Devised for the Treatment
of a Particular Ailment.

There is no "cure-au" among the
Rexall Remedies. There are different
and separate medicines. each one de-
vised for a certain human ailment or
a class of ailments closely allied. For
instance. Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are
recommended for the positive relief of
stomach irritation. indigestion, flatu-
Iency and dyspepsia. They are rich in
h-Subnitrate, Pepsin and Car
initiatives. They are prepared by spe-
cial processes which perfect and en-
nance the great remedial value of these
we'll known medicinal agents. This
remedy sells for IS cents, so cents. and
800 per package. Every one suffer
ing from stomach disorder should try
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, inasmuch as
they cost nothing if they do not sat
isfy.
Remember. The Lion Store Pharmacy
is the only store in Hammond where
these remedies may be obtained. and
every one in need Of medicine is urged
to investigate and take advantage OF
the frank and generous manner in
which they are sold.

AN OLD WOMAN.S SAY.


George Bernard Shaw is an eccentric
Lrishman who writes problem plays
Once in awhile Shaw gets hold of
big truth.
In a recent play of his a scrubwom-
an gets up from her task Of hopping
the marble floor of the English war Of
fee and engages in argument with the
chief Of the war council
Decidedly the shrewd old woman
gets the better of the war lord in the
debate, which is about war and equal
suffrage.
The working woman very blunty
says that woman In childbirth runs a
greater risk than the soldier on the
battlef1eld-and for a better purpose.
Which is poser for the general.
Moreover
plucky female says that men are sol
diers because the loss of men In war
IS less injurious to the world than
would be the loss of like number OF

one begins to see, as claimed by the
scrubwoman. that the soldier is q
mere loafer by the side of the woman
who performs a woman's function.
The soldier destroys; the woman pro
duces.
Now the statesmen Of England
whose fighting is done by proxy, have
prohibited Shaw's play.
You see, they don't want the womer
to get the scrubwoman's argumen;
into their heads.

SISTERS FOUND

AGED SPINSTERS MAY HAVE
HAD QUARREL
Police in Newark Confronted by Mys-
tery--Body Discovered Hang
ing by clothesIine and Com
panion Lies on Floor

NEWARK, n. J.. Dec. 19.-Two
aged spinster sisters, Frances and
Isabel Ritchie, were found dead today
in their home. They had lived alone
for twenty years. Their source of in
come was mysterious.
Frances was found lying on the
floor, while the body of the sister
dangled from a piece of clothesline
made fast above a door. A small box
was found in the dining room on the
cover of which had been written:
Frances hung herself at 2:30 o'clock
Saturday. Me too"
This led to the belief that the two
women had carried out a suicide
agreement, Frances hanging herself
first and the body being cut down by
the sister.
But further investigation brought to
light more grewsome details. Under
meath her clothing and sticking in the
breast of Frances was a hatpin, buried
up to it's head
The pin had been driven close to the
heart Similar wounds, but of not
such a serious nature, were found on
the other body which leads to the be-
lief that the sisters may have quar-
relied and fought.
Whether Frances Ritchie deliberately
hanged her sister. then killed herself
with the hatpin or whether the sister
found hanging stabbed the other and
then ended her own life, will perhaps
never be known.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Dec. 10
Jose Madriz, judge of the Central
American court of justice at Cartago,
who has been put forward as candi-
date for the presidency to succeed Ze-
laya. received an enthusiastic recep-
tion ON his arrival here today.
Long before he reached the capital,
Madriz was the center of cheering
crowds.
He was met by delegations from va
rious departments and was acclaimed
all along the way from Corinto to
Managua.
At this place the crowds awaiting
the appearance of the capdidate We're
extraordinary Troops and police were
out in force for the protection of Ma
driz. who went on foot to a hotel
amidst an almost incalculable mass of
people. Soldiers and detectives broke
a way through the solid ranks, push
ing and throwing aside the frantic peo-
pie
In front of the park there were hos
tile cries against the attempt of the
soldiers to clear the street and i'm
mediately fifty civilians, all residents
of Leon, the home of Madriz and the
stronghold of the Liberals, who favor
his candidacy, whipped out revolvers,
brandishing them i'm the air. They
formed a compact mass around Ma
driz, acting as his body guard and es-
corting him to his quarters.
Situation Critical
For a moment the situation was
critical. There were shouts of "Viva
Leon! To hell with Managua!"
No shots were fired and the process
sion went on. The face of the pres-
Dental candidate was flushed and wore
look of anxiety. He was accompa
MED to the hotel by the Mexican min
lister and the crowds were shut out.
Madriz arrived at o'clock this
morning at Corinto, aboard the steam
er Acapulco from Punta Arenas Costa
Rica. He was received by commissions
representing congress. the supreme
court and the municipalities of Leon,
Managua Chinandega and Masaya.
A salute was fired in his honor
Soldiers stood at attention and en-
thusiasm marked the greeting of the
crowds. DR.. Madriz, though seeming
ly we'll pleased at his welcome, made
no speech. Soon after he landed he
said in an interview:
II shall accept the honor that has
been offered me. l am not the can
didate of Leon, but I am the candidate
of the entire republic. My chief con-
Germ will be to appease the ancient
sectionalism that has divided certain
localities
DR.. Madriz said that he was not
certain how the revolutionists would
receive him. He had sent a delegate
to Bluefields to confer with revolu-
tionary leaders there, but his repre-
sentative had not been permitted to
land General Estrada sent word that
if he had come to treat for peace it
was useless.
Madriz was hopeful, however, that
he would succeed in making peace
with the revolutionists. He had con-
