1t is not correct to say that Gene
terry" means the city of the dead"
The word is from the Greek "Koime.
terion," meaning sleeping place, not
the place of the dead. There is nothing
in the thinking that it was originally
intended to convey the idea that the
departed were really dead any more
than there is in the old Hebrew term
for cemetery-"Bethaim"-thc house
of the living.

NOT LIKELY TO RETIRE
Chief Justice Fuller Will Not Take
Advantage of the Privilege For
Some Time Vet.
(Herald Specially

Washington, D. c., Feb. 11.-Chiei
Justice Fuller today celebrated his
seventy-seventh birthday and was the
recipient of flood of congratulations
from his colleagues on the supreme
bench and from many other friends in
public life. Although he has been
legible for retirement for seven years,
it is not regarded as likely that the
chief justice will take advantage of
the privilege for some time at least.
He is apparently in excellent health,
and the prevailing opinion here is that
unless his health should suddenly fail,
he will probably remain on the bench
until after the next presidential cleo
ton, when the question as to whether
there is possibility of democratic
succession will have been determined.

STOMACH DEAD, MAN STILL

People who suffer from sour stom.
ach, fermentation of food, distress

relief in large chunks of artificial di
gestors, are killing their stomachs by
inaction just as surely as the victim
of morphine is deadening and injurine

What the stomach of every sufferer
from indigestion needs is a good pre-,
scription that will build up his stom.
ach, put strength, energy and elasti
city into it. and make it sturdy enough
to digest hearty meal without arti.
fetal aid.
The best prescription for indiges,
ton ever written is sold by druggists
everywhere and by Bratton Drug Co,
and is rigidly guaranteed to build up
the stomach and cure Indigestion or

This prescription is named Mona,
and is sold in small tablet form in
large boxes for only 80 cents. Remem-
Der the name. Mona stomach tablets.

tents that give quick relief (other
than strong digestersJ, but they are
compounded for the purpose ofmaking

work and often would work on impor-

stretch. His persistence was proven

had surrounded himself with the best

he never depended upon them alto
