Just Liz. Ewes Annie.

A fruit supposed to bear the mark OF
Ewes teeth Is one of the many botan-
zeal curiosities Of Ceylon. The tree on
which It grows is known by the sig
nlfcant name OF "the forbidden fruit"
or Ewes apple tree" The blossom
has a very pleasant scent. but the real
ly remarkable feature OF the tree. the
one to which it owes its name, is the
fruit. 1t is beautiful and hangs from
the tree in peculiar manner. Orange
on the outside and deep crimson with
in. each fruit has the appearance Of
having had a piece bitten out of it.
This fact, together with its poisonous
quality, led the Mohammedans to rep
resent it as the forbidden fruit Of the
garden Of Eden and to warn men
against its noxious properties. The
mark upon the fruit is attributed 20
Eve. Why the bite of Adam did not
also leave its mark is not known, but
rs only one piece seems to be missing
its loss Is ascribed to the woman.

Bro. Harry Sommers, of the Elizabeth
town News, misconstrues our remark
that Acting-GOv-Linn would have made
ten-strike in pardoning Youtsey. Our
idea is, as all the rest of the gang had
been set free, why not let the tail go
with the hide and wipe out the whole
band? 1t was not that we doubt the
guilt of Youtsey, at all. We heartily
agree with Bro. SommerS that one of
the things Gov. Wilson will have to
answer for is the pardon of Howard,
Powers and Taylor after he had de-
clared that he would see that they had
a fair trial. We are confident that he
will never pardon Youtsey, however, as
the latter gave too much evidence
against his Republican conspirators.

Many Sick Horses.

An exchange says: Complaints are
rife of horses being sick of blind stag
gers in various sections of the country,
Blind staggers is caused by feeding dis
eased corn too long to horses. 1t is a
disease akin to vertigo headache that
finally kills of apoplexy which ensues
from poisonous congestion of t h G
stomach. Corn should be carefully Sc
lected for horses especially, and the diet
varied by liberal ration of oats and hay.
Mules are less liable injury from UNI
wholesome corn than to horses, and so
are cattle. But it pays to first call for
sound corn and nub the points of each
defective ear. Feed sound corn and
blind staggerS cannot occur"

A Startling Statement
New York Medical Authorities
Claim Dyspepsia tobe a
Pre-Disposing Cause
OF Consumption

The post norton statistics of the big
New York hospitals show that Some
cases of consumption are due, at least
indirectly, to unchecked dyspepsia, es-
pecially when the victim was predis-
posed to tuberculosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain. The weakened, irritable stomach
being unable to digest food the body
does not receive the required nourish-
ment and the victim becomes thin.
weak and haggard. As result, the
body becomes fertile field in which
the germs of disease may lodge and
flourish.
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered is
guilty of contributing toward the devel-
opment of one of the most iusidious and
fatal disease known to mankind.
Dyspepsia may be completely eradi-
Gated if properly treated. We sell a
remedy that we positively guarantee
will completely relieve Indigestion or
dyspepsia, or the medicine used during
the trial will cost the user nothing.
This remedy has been named Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly no offer
could be more fair. and our offer should
be proof positive that RexalI Dyspepsia
Tablets are dependable remedy.
Inasmuch Us the medicine will cost
you nothing if it does not benefit you
we urge you. who are suffering with in
digestion or dyspepsia to try Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets. A 25-cent box contains
enough medicine for fifteen days treat

Doing Good Work.

The Anti-Saloon League has been one
Of the most effective methods of fighting
the liquor curse that has ever been en-
ployed, says the Stanford Journal. 1t is
union of christian men and women of
the Nation, organized into an army of
aggressive workers. Each State has an
organization, an executive committee for
the State, with State superintendent,
State President, secretary, treasurer,
etc. Then the effort is made to have
each county organized. In most States
there is an organ published which is a
great power in the work. The organi-
zation is non-partiSan. 1t seeks to have
men elected to Office who are pledged to
temperance legislation without regard
to their party name. The immediate
object of the organization is to restrict
the sale of liquor, and it has for its
ultimate object the prohibition of both
the sale and manufacture of liquors for
beverage purposes. Under the leader
ship of this organization legislation ia
yorable to temperance has been secured
to more or less extent in all the States
and Territories of the Nation. II works
in harmony with all organizations which
have the same end in view. 1t therefore
does not claim all the honor for what
has been accomplished in the past few
years, but it does claim to have been a
most potent factor in these triumphs. 1t
is the largest and most effective organi-
zation at work today in the interest of
true temperance. There is room in it
for every man and woman in the church,
or out of the church, who desires to see
the Nation freed from the awful curse of
rum.

THE Kentucky Legislature seems to
be hopelessly tied up over the county
unit bill-nOthing else receiving much
attention. While the bill is all right
and should become a law, yet it is
wrong to shove aside everything else and
have no new or amended laws simply
because some people want saloons and
some do not. The law makers should
remember that there are many other
matters of equal if not more importance

Reports from Frankfort say the Legis-

Hedden, of Mt. Sterling, with sharp

is awonder the printer was able to handle
them as well as was done. However.

AT the age of seventy-two, John r.
Walsh, the bank-wrecker, once a multi
millionaire, the greatest banker in the
West. master of high finance, builder
of railroads and the autocrat of fortune
who asked no -favors and showed no
mercy, is completely undone. And an
added pity of it all is the best that any,
one can now be found to say of him is
that he is grand fighter, grim and I'M
dismayed in defeat and game to his
marrow. That is not much of a reputa-
tion to leave outside the noisome walls
of his prison upon the wreck of all that
once was his-nothing for which anyone
will remember him very kindly nor very

Paradise Record: AS the drift on the 200 level of the c < P. shaft approaches the point where the ore vein is expected to be en- Countered, interest increases. The drift is now in about 50 feet, with 15 feet (estimated) yet to go to reach the desired point under the winze, where ore was left when work was abandoned several years ago on account of the water. Al the present rate of progress. which is about three feet day, the vein would probably be reached about Oct. 5. Supt. Richards has decided not to sink stump below the shaft until after drifting some distance farther. The stump will probably be about 20 feet deep, and including it the shaft will then be 220 feet deep. By the time the drift is in about 65 feet, or as soon as it has passed through the dike of DOT phyry that cuts through the forma' tion, rich ore is confidently ex pected. for there was high grade ore-lead carhonates-in the bot. tom of the 35 it. winze on the 100 level, 65 feet above the present level.
