Acute
Indigestion
Fatal

Prominently displayed in the news
papers of January Sd was the an
neuncement of the aeaih of Alfred
Tennyson Dickens. son of the late
Charles Dickens. from acute indiges-
ton. Mr. Dickens vas stricken very
suddenly, only being sick about three
hours.
Newspapers of the next day tJanu-
ary 4th) featured the fact that our
own Fighting Bob" Evans died sud
denly in Washington of acute indiges-
ton after an illness of less than two
hours.
The above news items amply prove
how serious our National disease, in-
digestion, IS becoming, and the fact
that no matter how healthy and
robust q person is, they may be sud
denly stricken with this dread dis
ease.

ton. Don't let the enemy find you
unprepared if he should suddenly at
tack yoG. Guard yourself as thou

Drunkenness
is A DISEASE AND
WE CAN CURE IT.

WE CHN OOfE ti'
Most men who drink to excess
do so because they cannot help
it: they are controlled by
craving which is practically ir-
resistible. This is diseased
condition, but can be, and is.
promptly relieved.
How? by taking the Kelley
Treatment at a Kelley Institute,
the only place to get it and the
only treatment which cures al
coholic and drug inebriety.
The "keeley Cure" removes
the craving for liquor and drugs
and leaves the man master of
himself. The system is rational,
it embodies no suffering or sick
ness, no absurd or preposterous
claims are made: the hypoder-
mic method of treatment is con-
stantly used, which, according
to all reputable physicians, is
safe, painless. prompt, and ef-
ficient.
The "kEELEY CURE" does
not nauseate patient and no
attempt is made to cure inc
briates by creating a disgust for
liquor. A treatment depending
upon nauseants or emetics for a
cure can never be anything but
failure because the patient
will soon learn that it is not the
liquor which nauseates him but
that he has been made the vic
tim of a trick, the diseased con-
dition not being relieved the pa
tient naturally goes back to
liquor.
The diseased conditions pro-
dueed by from five to thirty
years constant or periodical use
of liquor cannot be cured by a
few days of nausea and emesis.
Such methods are irrational,
brutal, and, sometimes perma-
nently injurious.
The "kEELEY CURE" has re-
stored over 100000 men and
women who were addicted to
liquors and drugs; it is the pion-
eer in this work and has many
imitators, but no rivals or COM
petitors as far as results are
concerned
If you have need to take treat
ment for the liquor or drug ad-
diction, investigate the "kEELEY
CURE;" look for something that
is substantial and has stood the
test of time. Where health and
happiness are concerned you
cannot afford to experiment or
take chances, and for that rea-
son you cannot afford to
take any treatment but the
"kEELEY."
All correspondence is strictly
confidential and all inquiries an
swered in plain sealed envelopes.

They set to work lashing down the canvas. The

In the galley was the only place where there was
a trace OF the bloody deeds. The rain and sea had
washed out all the rest; the cook had thrown all
the dead bodies overheard. They stopped at the

Trained Police Officers
, Inc Cleveland Leader.

From the Cleveland Leader
 This is an age of progress apd all the progress is not confined to the United States, by any means. For instance, 1t has been decided that the police of Paris shall be educated scientifically
 An extensive scheme of instruction has been formulated by Prefect Lepine and Chief Hamard. The Paris gendarme in the future must know something of chem istry, of drugs. of handwriting and the locksmiths art. He will be compelled to read much about crime and he will have to acquire a working knowledge of the Bertillon system for the Identification of criminals.
 Special training has become one of the greatest forces of modern advancement. Technical schools are multiplying. Many things which but a few years ago were produced by rule-of-thumb are now turned out by the most accurate scientific processes. The public schools. to keep up with the advance, are affording the advantages of business and manual train ing to the boys and girls of the country. The time seems to be approaching when preparation of this kind will be neces- sary to the achievement of success in any calling.
 No work is more important to the pub lie than that which is performed by the police Yet In the United States they are not specially educated for 1t. Some po- licemen, through ambition and keen interest in their occupation, study to make themselves better officers of the law. They are the ones who win the prb- motions and who are given the places of responsibility. Why, then, should not the plan decided upon for Paris be adopted in this country? American po- licemen in the main are assured of their positions until they are retired because of disability, unless they are removed for cause. What possible objection can there be to increasing their efficiency as is being done with the men In so many other lines of endeavor?

more bargaining and haranguing and shoutlng-all of which palaver was, of course, part of the game, and the mar riage would not have been in ''pulSkah' form if it had not been gone through.
 At last tho bargain was struck the door flew open. The bridegroom passed into the bridal chamber, where he met his newly married wife face to face for the first time The rest of us discreetly with drew. but he was back among us few minutes later to accept our congratula- tons and bow his Acknowledgements. don't know what became of the bride. she seemed to have been quite forgotten. Then we all sat down to a sort of we'd ding feast nearly all composed of In- dian dishes, delicious curry and Bombay ducks, sweet coffee. Indian spices and cakes, curious out-of-the- fruit, and to crown all, the huge iced wedding cake, with the two flags of the proposed revo- lutionary party in China sugared on top Into which I had the honor of first cut ting.
 After eating we adjourned to another room, where an Indian orchestra squat ted on the floor and played weird musical instruments and q man beat monotonous- ly on tomtom. After the overture. or intermezzo, or whatever it was, a man in huge white turban sang love song, bowling like a dog in pain He swayed to and fro as a reed shaken by the wind, and the orchestra accompanied him, or rather it played about while he was singing, but I think he won in the end by several bars.

Rusy Housewife

After breakfast the husband goes off to work, if he feels like it, and the wifi busies herself at various tasks She may weave mats of brightly dyed strips of nslm leaves. or weave hats of various flores. This work is done entirely by hand, and done very well The women also weave a fine hemp cloth on the simplest of handlooms. Tho thread is obtained by tielng together, end to end, the flores of hemp, most tedious pro- cess. The cloth thus made serves for the womens waists and the mems shirts; 1t Is stiff but durable In some localities the women make by a similar process a very beautiful cloth from the fibre of pineapple leaves
 This is as good a place as any to speak of dress. While at work about the house the women wear but two gar ments, a calico skirt and a short cotton shirt. When they go out they add the hempcloth waist which is very full and hardly touches the body at all, and a
 large kerchief about the neck A pettI- coat is rarely worn, but they have an- other garment, called the tapis, which if, characteristic. It is merely piece of black cloth. usually plain, but sometimes embroidered. about a yard and a half souare One edge of this is passed abou. the waist and the corner Is tucked under to hold 1t. That is all It is probab bly the relic of the savage loin cloth, but is worn outside the skirt This garment, however, is going out of fashion, and is now rarely seen In the towns except among the poor folk.
