was always ready with his cheerful
smile, his joyful words and his help

succeeded in making a fine record in
his high school work. THAT death

more confirmation when he, the light

PRIEST ASSASSINATED.
Shot Down in His Rectory on Return
ing From Church.

Newark. N. J., March 1O.-The Rev
Father Erasin Ansino, rector of the
Polish church of st. Stanislaus, was
shot and almost instantly killed by
three masked men in his rectory early
today. Miss Antonia Sewrzytska,
housekeeper of the rector, who at
tempted to prevent the assassination,
was slightly wounded. AS there has
been a dispute among the church
leaders over it's affairs, the shooting
was at first believed to have been the
outcome of that disagreement
Three men, who were unknown to
the servants, called at the rectory and
and were admitted to the parlor while
the rector was celebrating mass in the
church. AS the rector entered the
parlor the men opened fire on him.
One bullet penetrated the breast near
the heart and the two others lodged
in the abdomen. Father Ansino died
in the ambulance while on the way
to the hospital.
Other priests in the rectory hearing
the shots, rushed toward the parIor
whereupon the assassins fed from the
house and escaped. Four suspects
have been arrested but the house
keeper was unable to identify any of
them.

ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR
A GOOD STOMACH
This Offer Should Be a Warming to
Every Man and Woman.

1tCNy anu StOuld0.
The newspapers and medical jour
mails recently have had much to say
relative to a famous millionaire's offer
of million dollars for new stomach.
This great multi millionaire was
too busy to worry about the condition
of his stomach. He allowed his dys-
pepsia to run from bad to worse until
in the end it became incurable.
His misfortune serves as a warming
TO others.
Everyone who suffers with dyspep-
sla for few years will give every
thing he owns for a new stomach
Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal
state of the gastric juices. There is
one element missing. The absence of
this destroys the function of the gas
trIc fluids. They lose their power to
digest food
We are now able to supply the
missing eIement--to restore to the
gastric juices their digestive power,
and to make the stomach strong and
