We cannot, however, do a better service to the afflicted of the gentler sex than to refer them to Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Adviser, a great family doctor book of 1000 pages, bound in cloth and given away gratii, or sent, post-paid, on receipt of 31 one-cent stamps—to cover cost of mailing only. All the delicate ailments and matters about which every woman, whether young or old, single or married, should know, but which their sense of delicacy makes them hesitate to ask even the family physician about, are made plain in this great book.

Houck when seen at his office, said he was not only willing but anxious to have the charges Investigated. The acquittal of Houck when the jury had been Impaneled to try his case, has led to much -discussion among members of the bar, and Judge Paulus decided to institute the disbarment proceedings. Mr. Houck was on the national ticket as Democratic elector for the eleventh district in the last campaign and was once Democratic nominee for congress. • ' — o —-— 1 ■" Foley’s Honey and Tar cures coughs quickly, strengthens the lungs and expels colds.

TAKING EVIDENCE > t t Hearing Evidence in the > Gallmeyer Case ) t MUCH INTEREST r . Preble Township More Than Interested in the Case • ■ ■ ■ The lines are drawn and the batt’e i is on in the Adams circuit court in the Gallmeyer case; Most of those in the court room during the day were ’ in some manner interested in the case, which perhaps has developed a greater interest and more feeling than any other one thing that has ever happened in Preble township. The issues t were all completed and the taking ‘ of evidence began late yesterday afr ternoon, and nearly the entire day today was taken up In hearing the evi--5 dence of Ernest and C. D. Gallmeyer, both of whom were taken over the history of this case, and they „toth made good witnesses. The many com1 plications in the case, together with : the intent of both sides to never give l up until the old gat dies, makes the r case, one in which the best fighting! ( blood is displayed. This fact adds much interest, and it is likely that before the case ends the public gen- • erally will be displaying more than i ordinary interest in the outcome. It ! is likely that the evidence in chief ( for th,e plaintiff will be concluded by this evening, although this is by no means certain. It will then take the ’ defense a day or two for their evii dence, and then the fireworks. o John Hendricks of Monroe, looked J. after business affairs in the city this . morning and has returned to his hjme.
