1000 APPENDICITIS CASES.
All Operated in One Hospital m q
Single Year.

Besides this, many people were
operated who thought they had
some slight stomach or bowel trou-
BILE, but their trouble was found to
be a diseased Appendix. A German
physician, who realized that appen-
dicitis was one of the most common
and dangerous diseases, has discov-
cred a simple remedy for treating
appendicitis without operation, al
though perhaps in very rare cases,
operation may still be advisable.
The remedy, called Adler-i-ka, is
composed of buckthorn bark, glycsr-
inc and other simple ingredients
scientifically compounded.
Because Adler-i-ka COOLS the
diseased parts and DRAINS OFF
all impurities, which no other medi-
cine can do, ONE DOSE instantly
relieves stomach or bowel trouble.
The drug store of ]. G. Perry reports
large sales and wonderful results.
Almost any doctor will tell you, If
your bowels do not move each day.
or if you have wind or gas in your
stomach or bowels, or a heavy feel
ing after eating, you may very like
ly get appendicitis. By taking Ad-
ler-i-ka just once each week, appen-
dicitis can gain no foothold.
A valuable book, showing many
pictures of the curious little appen-
dix, and telling how appendicitis is
caused, and how you can easily
guard yourself against it, can be Sc
cured free for a short time at the
above druggists. You should read
this book and take no chances.

AN UP-To-DATE DRUGGIST

says it is surprising how many old.
fashioned remedies are being used, which
goes to show that It is hard to improve
some of our grandmothers old, time-tried
remedies. For instance, for keeping the
hair dark, soft and glossy, nothing equal
ing our grandmothers' sage tea" has ever
been discovered. Although by the addi-
tion Of sulphur and other ingredients, this
old-fashiOned brew has been made more
effective as a scalp tonic and color re-
storer. Nowadays when our hair comes
out or gets faded or gray, instead Of go
ing to the garden or garrett for herbs and
making the "tea" ourselves, we simply
90 to the nearest drug store and ask for
d bottle Of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur.
This preparation is sold by all leading
druggists for 80 cents and 81 a bottle, or
is sent direct BY the Wycth Chemical
Company "a Cortlandt st., New York
City, upon receipt OF price

AND BURNS
TO FIGHT

Boston, Mass, July 23.-Sam
Langford, the Boston colored bruis-
er, will sail from New York August
Z for London where he will fight
Tommy Burns late in September.
The bout will be put on by the
Olympic club by Hugh Mcintosh, the
Australian promoter.
The fight will take place soon at
ter Langford meets AL Kaufman in
this country. After he has had a
go with Burns, fight critics say they
will then be able to tell what chance
the Boston scrapper has for Jack
Johnsons title.

[uNrrED PRESS LEASED wIRn.l

Madrid, July 23.-Republicans Of
Spain are frenzied with Joy today
over the attempted assassination Of
former Premier Maura, who was shot
last night at the Francia depot in
Barcelona.
Republican members of the cortes,
sembodying the spirit of the people,
hastily met at midnight following
rumors of Maura's death. Later,
when it was learned that he was only
slightly wounded and would recover,
they resolved upon measures which
they intend shall throw open to in
vestigation the charges that Maura
was responsible for the Barcelona
massacre last year.
Without doubt Maura is the most
hated man in Spain, and since his re-
-tirement from the ministry he has
been guarded by government agents
from those who have sworn to have
his life in payment for the wrongs ne
is alleged to have inflicted upon the
people.
Maura was in the Francia station
last night preparatory to leaving for
Palma, in the Balaric isles, for the
summer. His assaila1ft, Posas Roca,
a driver, and leader of laborites, fired
three shots, one of which struck the
former premier in the leg. AS
Maura fell to the ground friends and
police sprang upon Roca.
A woman, a cousin of Maura, was
the first person to reach the would
= be assassin. She seized his arm, but
was unable to prevent his firing the
second shot, which went wild, and
the third, which wounded Senor
Oliara, friend of Maura.
Roca was pounced upon by Maura's
guards. Fighting desperately, he was
borne away to prison, while Maura
was taken to his boat, bound for Ma
jorca.
Roca's father and brother, with
trio of adherents, attempted to res
cue the prisoner but, after lively
fight, the police succeeded in quieting
the mob, and arrested the father and
brother.
Members of the Spanish family and
leading layolists in the cortes forsee
grave trouble from the attack of
Maura Roca was a close friend of
Francisco Ferrar, who was executed
by the government under the admin
istration of Maura for alleged insti-
cation of riots a year ago.
The government anticipated the at
tack on Maura by having the EXPIRE
mier guarded and Roca shadowed. |
Roca eluded his followers, and prob
ably would have killed Maura, but
for the interference of the woman.
The loyalists fear that the attack is
but the beginning of a series of dis
orders directed at the overthrow of
the monarchy.
The significance of the attack is
shown when it is recalled that Senior
Iglesias, leader of the republicans in !
the cortes, recently declared from the
floor that Maura should be shot. The
government, at that time, dared not
accept Iglesias' defiant challenge to
arrest him, fearing that a subsequent
inquiry might involve the crown. The
same fear is again brought to the
surface by the attack on Maura.
