PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND RELIEVES PAIN.

rirs. Margaret Bethel, of Brainerd, riinn., writes:

"For thirty years I have been a sufferer from neuralgia in the head, and also with rheumatism in the whole body. I began taking Paine's Celery Compound, and soon found that I was much better. Before taking the Compound my life was such a burden that I almost prayed to la/it down. I was bedfast every two weeks with horrible pain in the head, back and neck uiltil I was almost crazy. I am able to do harder work and more of it to-day than for twenty-five years. I am really enjoying life again, thanks to Paine's Celery Compound. I am satisfied that my life has been prolonged many years by its use."

Paine's Celery Compound is a great reconstructant. The weakened, inllamed nerves are built up and the nervous force increased. The stomach, liver and kidneys are kept in healthy action. The body is kept free of acid blood and morbid waste material is made healthy and free from pain.

FOUND HIM GUILTY.

The Jury In the Dlngman Case Return* Its Vbrtllct on Wednesday After Seventeen Hours Deliberation.

The jury in the o.ssa of Dr O Dingman, of Liuden, charged with stealing corn from his neighbors, re turned its verdict Wednesday morning about ten o'clock, after seventeen hours deliberation. They merely stated they had found him guilty and left the judge to impose the sentence. By the law of this state, if sentenced, he will get from one to three years in the northern penitentiary, he being over the age that permits of first offenders being sent- to the reformatory at Jefferaonville. The jury stood four for a jail sentence, and eight for a tarm in the penitentiary, and there was where the hitch occurred) but the four lenient ones finally came around to the majority's way of thinking.

Dingman's attorneys state that they will file a motion for a new trial and are now preparing the same. In the meantime the doctor will be released on his bond of $200, which will probably not ba raised above this figure.

A BRAZIL DESPERADO-

He Terrorizes The Inhabitants Down About North Union And Makes Them Hunt Their Holes.

Last Friday evening there passed through this city an outfit in which were C. W. Oawley and family, who gave Brazil as their residence. They had been on a fishing expedition in the north part of the state, they claimed, and were on their way home. Accompanying the party was a vicious dog, which, when near the home of Dave Wray, -south of this city, attacked the pet canine of Mr. Wray with the apparent intention of eating him up, hide and all. Mr. Wray came out to seperate the belligerent canines and was ordered by Cawley, who possesses a wooden leg, to keep his hands off as he intended to 6hoot Wray's dog. Oawley looked so mean that Mr. Wray concluded discretion was the better part of valor and accordingly let loose. Oawley at once proceeded to put five bullets into.Wray's dog and threatened its owner with the came fate if he interferred. Mrs. Wray came out to argue the case with Cawley and was met with the revolver and told to go into the house and shut her mouth, which she did. The neighborhood was much exercised over the affair and if Cawley had not torn out, Would probably have given him a dose of the red eyed law.

A Sermon la Verge.

At the funeral of MrB. Charles WebBter, Prof. Ewing read a poem by the late Miss Prances E. Willard which made a profound impression on all .present. The pcem was a'favorite of Mrs. Webster and she had remarked only a few weeks before, when in perfect health, that she desired no better funeral sermon. The poem is as follows:

Will LIS WE MAY.

The hands are such dear hands They are so full they turn at our demands So often they reach out

With trifles scarcely thought about So many times they do So many things for me, for you—

If their fond wills mistake, We may well bend, not brealc.'

No see

SCHULTZ & HULET,

They are such fond, frail lips That speak to us. Pray, if love strips Them of discretion many times,

Or if they speak too slow or quick, such crimes We may pass by fosVe may see Days not far off when thoso small words may be

Held not as slow, or quick, or out of place, hut dear, Because the lips that spoke are no more here.

They are such dear, familiar feet that go Along the path with ours—feet fast or slow, And trying to keep pace—if they mistake

Oi* tread upon some flower that wo would take Upon our breast, or bruise some reed, Or crush poor hope until it bleed,

We may bo mute, Not turning quickly to impute Grave fault for they and we Have such a little way to go—can be

Together such a little whllo along the way, We will be patient while wo may.

So many little faults wo fine], Wo see them for not blind Is love. We see them but If you and I

Perhaps remember them some by and by, They will not bo Faults then—grave faults—to you and me,

But just odd ways—mistakes, or even lessRemembrances to bless. Days change so many things—yes, hours see so differently In sun and showers,

Mistaken words to-nlght May be so cherished by to-morrow's light, We will be patient, for we know There's such a little way to go. —Frances E. Willard.

HE FAVORS GRIFFITHS.

Frank Hanly's Setitlmentg on the Gubernatorial ltace.

Indianapolis Journal: J. Frank Hanly, of Lafayette, was at the Denison yesterday. He said he was not a candidate for any office and was not wgrking in the interests of any particular candidate. "I am out of politics just now," said he, "at least actively. I dont mean by tbis that I will not work for the ticket, for I will at any time I can do it any good. Personally I think John L. Griffiths is the best of the candidates for governor and will probably have the strongest following. The feeling I bear expressed in the Indianapolis paperB that any candidate from Indianapolis is embarrassed by reason of his location is largely a mistake I think. At least it iB taken more seriously in Indianapolis than in any part of the stato I am acquainted with. "I have a very extensive acquaintance in the northern and western parts of the 6tate and I know that Mr. Griffiths is the favorite in both these sections. It may be that local candidates will develop who will exact and receive the loyal support of the delegations from these counties, but when it is demonstrated that these men cannot win the support will go to Mr. Griffiths. "His fifteen years of active work in all parts of the state have made him one of the best known men of the day and when the convention opans it will be found that he will be the second choice of mbny delegations. "There is a move on foot in our part of the state to have Judge ftaub, of the Warren county circuit bench, appointed as one of the new supreme judges to fill the places provided for by the last general assembly. He is the ablost jurist I have ever known and has held his present place for eighteen years, being each time nominated by acclamation."

Smallpox Scare.

County health officer Barcus was called to Wingate Sunday to investigate what was thought to be a case of Bmallpox. One of the children of Everett Morrow was sick and it was discovered that the trouble instead of being Bmallpox was a combination of hives and. chickenpox. It

waB

bad

enough, but the parents and neighbors were greatly relieved to find that it was not the real thing.

Will Open Monday.

The New Market schools will be opened again next Monday, having been closed on account of diphtheria. The building has been thoroughly disinfected and as there haa been no new cases of the disease, it is hoped that it has run its course.

A Polar Circle Social.

There will be a polar circle social and cake walk at Stump's school house, No. 35, on Tuesday night, Nov. 21. Everybody invited.

W. O. Godfrey, a Traveler, Knds His t!f«In a Dramatic Manner.

At midnight Saturday night a dramatic suicide occurred at Linden, the victim being W. G. Godfrey, who was traveling from Kansas City to Jersey City. He was going over the Clover Leaf on a stock

pasB

and was

on train No. to, which had to wait an hour at Linden. When the train stopped Godfrey alighted and went oat along the track for awhile. Soon he returned to tho caboose an£ sat for some minutes in silence. Then he arose muttering to himself that he did not feel at himself. He climbed down and was seen no more until just as tho train was ready to start. Then the train men who were in tho caboose cupola, noticed Godfrey in a stooping posture at the side of the track. They signaled the engineer to stop and" started to the stooping man fearing" that he was ill. He fell before they reached him, however, and they were horrified on coming up, to see that he had deliberately cut his throat with a razor. He was still alive and did not die for nearly two hours, although he was never conscious. From papers found on his person by Dr. Laughlin, who was deputized as coro-^ ner, it was ascertained that the man's name was W. G. Godfrey, and that he had been employed as auditing clerk by the Chicago & Alton road in the Kansas City office. He carried a high recommendation from the officials of the road and other letters and papers indicating that he was well thought of where he had lived. A message from Kansas City Sunday, stated that he had resigned his place there to accept a better one a friend in Jersey City had secured for him. He left

Kansas City in good spirits to enter ter upon his new work. The message further stated that he was an English* man without relatives in this country.

Godfrey was about thirty-five years of ago and was a fine appearing man, well dressed. The body was prepared for burial last Sunday and was laid to rest in the Linden cemetery Monday.-ip
