Dr. Ross, never flinched i when he heard the words which sends 1 him to the prison for the rest of his’ life, and looked as though he was I expecting it. The jury agreed on the' seventh ballot. Mrs. Linder, wife of the murdered man was in the court i room when the verdict was read. I' Some one said “he should have been ' hung," but she “No,' this means more punishment than would death.” The murder was a cold I blooded one.

Druggists Smith & Yager submits the following to the readers of the Democrat: For several years we have announced, with our recommendation, that we had found a positive cure for eczema; a simple skin wash, oil of' Wintergreen compounded with other healing ingredients. Yet we know there are people right in this town who have eczema, and still have never trfed this remedy. We have, therefore, arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for a special offer of a trial bottle at 25 cents instead of the SI.OO bottle as regularly sold. We offer this trial botc’e with our recommendation and assurance that just as soon as the pattent washes his Itching skin, this mild liquid will take the itch away instantly.
