their stomach and liver troubles by
the use of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep

This remedy, as all readers doubt
less know, has been before the public
for generation and is now being
more extensively used than any other
remedy for stomach, liver and bowel
complaints. According to reliable tes-
timony, it seems to be a very quick
and lasting cure for constipation, in
digestion and dyspepsia, liver trouble,
biliousness, headaches, sour stom-
ach, gas on the stomach, drowsiness
after eating and similar disorders. 1t

her amazed family. Just as they were
congratulating her, a letter came from
Martin, the florist, containing card
with apologies from the firm, stating
they had just found this card which
should have been enclosed with box

1t was from the Ladies' Aid Society in
recognition for the good work she had
accomplished for the club.
Il thought it strange that George
was so silent about those violets, but

gard to the life and work of Louis

past and by his good works, re-
gained the respect of his fellowmen.
Commenting upon Mr.. Bern
hardt's promotion, the News says:
1t is with regret that we learn
OF the coming departure of Super
intendent Bernhardt of the Yale
Hope Mission, His short life
among us has been full of fruitful
endeavor, and he has stood preem-
inently as an example of what healthy
Christianity will do for man and.
through that man for others. His
good works will live in the memory
of the Mission and will be manifest
ed in the lives of those whom he has
benifited. The fact that he leaves
here to take up larger work mitigates
somewhat the loss that his going
will cause"

IN an open letter to the Saltwater
Gazette, Rev. E. c. Teachout, who
is visiting in Lincoln. Neb., says in
part:
| visited the state prison today,
riding the two or three miles out in
a bobby little car that set one to
guessing about Noah or some of his
immediate descendants. The prison
population is 455 today. The prison
ers were somewhat engaged in max
ing brooms and shirts under the con-
tract system, the state getting SIS
cents per day per man with some ex-
ira pay to the prisoners for extra
work. Prisoners were talking to
each other, looked us over carefully
while few were smoking and some
were lying down waiting for work
to come to them. The grading sys-
tenn is not in vogue here. / saw the
scaffold for capital punishment and
was glad to say that we no longer
have that in our state. 1t is a.
gruesome thing that the best that
can be devised for some men by their
fellows is to kill them.
Prison men here seem to look
hopelessly at the problem of getting
these men to become usful citizens
.of really reforming .
We gather from Rev. Teachout's
brief description of the Nebraska
prison, that conditions there are not
productive of good results, nor can
we see how good results are to be
obtained where no sincere efforts are
made toward lettering the gloomy
conditions which surround the pris-
