A great many people who have

sorry for it-when nervous or
chronic dyspepsia resulted, and
they have not been able to cure it.
Use Kodol and prevent having
Dyspepsia.
Everyone is subject to indices-

stomach abuse, just as naturally
and just as surely as q sound and

When you experience sourness

nauseating fluid, bloated sensation,
gnawing pain in the pit Of the
stomach, heart burn (so.called),

Oueer Sort of a Fellow.

A queer sort of man has just
made his appearance in New York.
He calls himself Charles Quill and
seems to be electric proof At a
private exhibition recently he allow
ed himself to be strapped into an
electric chair, similar to the one in
Sing Sing prison, and direct cur
rent of electricity drawn from a
nearby feed wire was turned into his
body to the amount Of 1900 volts.
This is 100 more volts than are used
in executions at the prison. Quill
seemed to enjoy it. He endured
this huge voltage for fully minute.
During that time his assistant touch
ed various parts of his body with
an alcohol soaked handkerchief,
which Immediately burst into flames.
Quill asserts that electricity Will
| mot kill unless it burns, and ne ex-
plains his immunity by the fact that
his body contains an unusual amount
of carbon.
He played with electricity as
/ though it were the most harmless
thing in the world. With 1,Soo
| volts sizzling into one hand, ne
| would light a candle, or set aglow
an incandescent light with the other.
He applied piece of carbon heio
between his teeth, to a similar piece
| attached to another wire and sup
piled perfect arc light. He drew
forth current of such intensity with
one finger, that ne lighted cigar
cite from the heat.
Quill said he first came in contact
with voltage of electricity in San
Francisco, when he was employed
by the gas and electric company. lie
got too close to one Of the dyna-
mos, and "shut-off' of $500 volts
entered his body. although ap-

Quill has offered to go to Sing
Sing and make a test. He says that
when man is electrocuted he is
only in comatose state and that
death comes when the autopsy is
held. A peculiar effect Quill at
tributes to electricity is the extreme
lassitude it creates. After a shock
he loses from two to three pounds.
The electric chair feat he would not
undertake oftener than once a week.
We would like to know what ef-
feet stroke Of lightning would
have on Quill.

How 1t Works.

In commenting on the new tariff
bill, which has just passed the House
of Representatives the Florence
Times says without proposing in
any way to criticise the motives of
the South Carolina congressman who
will favor tariff on lumber, we want
to point out to our readers just how
such iniquitous burdens are laid on
the people as are laid in that tariff
bill
Our congressman, coming from
people always boasting of being
above seeking selfish ends at the
cost of the principles of right and
wrong, are said to be advocating the
tariff on lumber because they would
protect some of their constituents,
this, they feel, and argue, will be
for the good of the country, the
whole of the constituents.
Congressman from all other parts
of the country are arguing along
lust such narrow lines, and the peo-
ple have the burden to bear, and
our congressman can tell us that
all they advocated was little aid
for our section while everybody
was commercial interest. The
others will tell their people the
same story.
But in the pdsh it will be poor,
lone and friendlsss industry that
will not have its share of protection,
and the masses of the people pay for
it and the trusts get all the benefit,
and still We continue to send men
to congress for the little ralings and
scrappings about that they can dig
out of the depleted public treasury
and have scattered around home for
Us to feed on.
We think il unfortunate that any
! congressman from the South voted
Tor tne protection OF any article in
tne new tariif bill. 1t will be used
all over the country by the Repub-
licans as a justification for their
passing the iniquitous thing, which
will rob the South of millions Of dol
lars without helping it at all. DEM
ocratic congressman, and especially
Southern Democratic congressman
should let the Republicans fix up
and pass their own bills to rob the
| DeODle.

MoryeIs of Monkey Talk.

About a quarter of a century ago
a man was watching some monkeys
in the Cincinnati Geological Gardens,
There were a great many small mon
KEYS and one large mandrill-all
together in two cages connected by
! an open door. The smaller monkeys
| were afraid Of the mandrill, who
lorded it over his little neighbors.
The man tnoticed that two of the
small monkeys were always near the
door, apparently communicating to
the others what the mandrill was
doing. Certainly movements of his
always caused certain sounds from
them. The other monkeys acted ac-
cordingly.
From that time I determined to
learn the speech of monkeys" says
Prof. Richard L. Garner. And he
has done so, too. Twice he has
gone to Africa and lived in the
jungle with them. He can talk to
the monkeys in their own language;
has taught one Of them to say
word; and once got one to witness
legal document, declares Arthur
B. Reeve in very interesting ar
ticle on men and monkeys in the
January Hampton's Magazine.
After spending several years in
Intellectually attempting to learn the
monkey language" in Zoos, DR..
Garner had an inspiration. He went
to the Smithsonian Institution in
Washington with the proposition that
he use phonograph in studying
monkeys. The idea appealed to one
of the authorities, Dr. Baker. and
Garner was allowed to go ahead.
At the institution at that time
were two monkeys of different spe-
cies kept in the same cage. The
female was removed and what she
said was recorded on the phono-
graph. Then the machine was start
ed in the cage with the male. He
looked up in surprise for the other
monkey. Seeing none, he walked
gingerly AROUND the machine. and
sat down iY front of it. Then he
nut his hanp down the horn. Still
he could find no monkey. FIe re-
tired. nuzzled. TO the far end of his
cage, and said few things him
sole which were also taken down.
When this record was in turn re
heated before the female she seemed
to recognize his voice. Later Pro-
fessor Garner took records OF a
Cebus Ca little South America mon
ley) in Chicago, and when they were
ropeated in New York to another
Cebus they were apparently recogniz-
ed.

F.. MARION CRAWFORD DEAD.
Noted American Novelist Passes
Away in Italy.

Sorrento, April 81. Marion
Crawford, the novelist, died here at
half-past o'clock tonight. He was
born in 1854.
MIR. Crawford had been i'll for
some time, one of the symptoms OF
his affiiction being fevers, which
tended greatly 10 weaken him. Prof.
Enrico di Renzi, director OF the
American clinic of the University OF
Naples, was called into consultation
at the Villa Crawford some ten days
ago and found serious bronchial
and pluretic complications. His i'll
ness had it's origin in an attack OF
influenza. Death came peacefully
and while his entire family was at
the bedside. Mr.. CraWford's Oldest
son had arrived hastily from London.
Until this afternoon the patient re-
tanned consciousness, but apparently
he knew that the end was near and
with calmness he encouraged his
family to bear up and to cease weep
ing. The novelist's last words wer; ::
Il enter seren:ly into eternity.
!, According to the attending ply
sicians Mr.. Crawford collapsed last
night owing to extreme weakness.
He then was without fever. Sadly
he expressed the presertment that he
was soon to die, but almost imme-
diately afterwards, when referring to
the approaching Good Friday, he
said:
II die with Christ.
Mr.. Crawford's daughter at his
request then read to him Plato S
dialogue, the novelist declaring they
taught him serenity in death.

The Tramp Problem.

In these good old Republican days
the old time tramp problem is again
presenting itself to municipal au-
thorities. For instance, the little
town of Ceina, Ohio, is daily over
run with tramps. Recently eighteen
of these characters were taken from
the calaboose before Mayor P. E.
Kenney. Later Mayor Kenney wrote
to the Calina Daily Standard that
Marshal Weber was notified that
several tramps. headed this way, had
set fire to some freight cars, on the
l.. E. & w. east of Celina, and ne
was asked to be on the lookout for
them. He picked up a few Of the
tramps about town, and had eigh-
teen in the lookup Saturday morn
