Woman Blamed BY Her Family

Restless. irritable, nervous, excit-
able and exacting is the charge
against her by. those nearest and
dearest. How little they realize the
struggle the overworked wife and
mother is making to keep about and
perform the hundred and one duties
that devolve upon her! Every hour
her headaches, backaches and pains
drag her down until she can stand it
no longer. Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has restored
more women in this condition to
health and happiness than any other
medicine. The grateful letters we

OF an estimated value Of 100000 900.
With the arrival OF DR.. Wicdfeldt,
Germany has an ambassador in

The ambassador made light Of re-

COURT OF APPEALS
IN SESSION HERE
Decides Case From Tpscara-
was County; Man Must
Serve In Ohio Pen,
Court Holds

The court of appeals of this district
held short session in Mt. Vernon
Wednesday morning. The members
of the court are Judges r. s. Shields
of Canton, F. N. Patterson OF Ash
land and Lewis B. Houck OF Mt Yer.
non.
The most important case decided
was Vincent Chauncy Nigro vs. State
of Oh;o--a criminal case from Tusca-
rawas county.
Nigro was convicted and sentenced
to the penitentiary for a period of 20
years for bombing the home of Rus
sell G. Bowers, the prosecuting attor-
ney of Tuscarawas county. The ex-
plosion Of the bomb destroyed the
home of Bowers and he narrowly es-
capped from instant death. Mr.. Bow.
ers, as prosecutor, had convicted Nj
gro on two charges of bootlegging,
and this is the claimed motive for the
crime.
The opinion was prepared by
Judge Houck in which he says:
"This case has called for and re.
ceived our most careful considera-
ton. The crime charged is most
heinous one that upon first blush not
only shocks the citizenship of the i'm
mediate community where committed,
but likewise every law-abiding citizen
and lover of home everywhere.
1--WE find no extenuating circum.
stances; and the one really outstand.
ing fact that no doubt caused the jury
to convict was by reason Of the acts,
statements and conduct of the accused
at the time of his arrest at his home.
They were not consistent with inno-
cence but that of guilt. Such crimes
as the one charged cannot be looked
upon lightly by the courts. And the
one who under the facts and the law,
as in the instant case, is legally con.
victed must atone to the offended law.
We find no prejudicial error in the
record and the judgment of convic-
ton Is affirmed"
Nigro is out on a bail bond of $685.
