Incidentally she set at rest the reports that have been in cir culation for the last "A hours that Har- ry Sampson was killed in a scuffle with her while she was trying to get the gun away from him.
 "Oniy God knows what I suffered, ' she declared tearfully to-day.
 "On the Saturday before my hus- bands death had been to Rochester and when I came down stairs I left my good clothes in the room upstairs. When I came down in the morning Harry was still wrangling. I was eX- cited and don't remember what was said. Father told me to go upstairs and keep still. I was hurt and went away. I first went into the bedroom upstairs and sat by the window. Af- ter I put my skirts on a hook I went about my usual upstairs work, fixing my working clothes in the store room. Then I went into the front room and tidied up some things there. It was there I heard my husband cry. I ran downstairs as fast as I could and saw Harry lying on the floor. He could not speak to me,
 You know the rest am innocent of any wrong in connection with my husand'S death. never wrOnged Harry in my life, slaved for him, raised chickens to help him, raked hay with him to save expenses and I loved him more than my life"

HIGH PRESSURE DAYS.

Men and women alike have to wOr K necessarily with bra n and hand to hold their own nowadays. Never were the demands of business. the wants of the family, the requirements of society. more numerous. The first effect of tn praiseworthy effort to keep up with al these tningS is commonly seen in a weakened or debilitated condition of the nervous system. which results in dyspeps'a- defective nutrition of both body and brain. and in extreme cases in complete nervous prostration. It IS clearly seen that what is needed is what will sustain the system. give vigor and tone to the nerves. and keep the digestive and assimilative func- tions healthy and active. From per sonal knowleGge. we can recommend Hoods Sarsaparilla for this purpose
 1t acts on all the vital organs. builds up the whole system. and fits men and women for these high-presSure days.
