Typhoid T»rmr. Typhoid it now admitted by all aclenMata to be caused by a venom microbe that swarms by tba million in the tissues Of the small intestines, producing fever, delirium, extreme prostration, putfifacMon and death. The medical profession has earnestly sought a reliable antidote for this mortal plague and found none. Hence it is a bold, an almost startling claim, (a claim never before dared to be made for any remedy,) that Brazilian Balm, alone, will positively cure Typhoid TTFBOIB BACILLUS. Fever so any stage. This great discovery was the result of a woman's faith. Mrs. L. B. Bradway, of Wilmington, Del., believed the Balm would do almost anything. Hence she gave it in 6 drop doses, every three to five minutes, to a young lady in the last stage of Typhoid. t>he had been given up by the doctor, who said she could not live half an hour. To the surprise of all she quickly revived and recovered. Since then it has been used by laymen, nurses and physicians with uniform success. How It cures was then a mystery*; but it is now fully settled that it promptly destroys every Typhoid bacillus in the system. It staunches the hemorrhage, heals the whole alimentary track, and, instead of the slow, tedious convalescence, restores to health and strength with surprising rapidity. In short, it fills every condition of a perfect antidote for Typhoid. Treatment: Give 10 drops every 15 minutes while the fever rages, and once an hour when the fever is off, and give nothing else. During convalescence give 3 or 4 times a day. To prevent Typhoid give every hour. Painesville, O., druggists say nothing has been offered in that town for years which is so popular and gives such universal satisfaction as Brazilian Bala. Nearly 400 bottles have been sold than In the last two months.

Four-fifths of the buyers in nearly every line of trade are women. Merchants know this— the observer sees it. Women do the buying for the home—drygoods, groceries, furniture, provisions, linen, children's clothing, and the hundred other items that go to complete the daily home needs. As women do the buying, the newspaper that is most read by women is the best medium for advertisers who want the custom of women. The Banner Times is such a newspaper, and has been since its birth. It is a newspaper that goes into the homes. A good newspaper for men —the newspaper for women.

Dr. Hickman, the popular young colored physician who recently came here from Cincinnati, is well acquainted with George Jackson, the colored man who alleges that he Irove the carriage which carried poor Pearl Bryan to her doom. Dr. Hickson believes the story of George Jackson implicit)- and states that he is a man who would act just as he claims he acted. “He is an honest, straightforward man,” said Dr. Hickman, “although I always thought he was a little cranky on military affairs. He is one of the biggest cowards I eyer knew and I can readily see how he was frightened so badly by his experience that he ran all the way home and kept silent for days. I have known him for eight years and I have no doubt but that he told the whole truth.” South urooncaatla.

Miss Smith further tells of a let j ter written to her by Jackson after the murder, in which he says lie killed the girl by giving her medi-

this idea Mr. East gave the subject the most careful study. With a letter from Police Judge Cox, ot Indianapolis, to the jailer at Cincinnati, he was enabled to have interviews with Jackson, Walling and Wood, and observations and impressions were imparted to a World reporter last night. “How did Jackson impress you, Mr. East?” “I regard him as the most villainous man with whom I ever talked.

“And what about Walling?” “His face looks likes the face of a repentant criminal, he is evidently trying to obtain the favor of the public. He had a melancholy look and never smiled a single time during our conversation. He said he was innocent of the crime. He was not anxious to break oft'the conversation.” “Did you talk with Wood and if so what did you think of him?” “Yes. I talked with him for several minutes. He is a tall young man, about twenty years old, light complexion, and blue eyes. He impressed me much more favorably than did either one of the others. He told me that he introduced Jackson to Mis* Bryan at her home, in January 181)5, and that afterwards they often met at his father's house in Greencastle. Wood soon learned Pearl was dead in love with Jackson, but that Jackson did not care much for her. I asked Dim if he knew whether Jackson and Pearl were engaged. He replied that Pearl told that they were. Afterwards Pearl told Wood that Jackson ought to marry her. “Why didn’t Wood tell Miss Bryan that Jackaon didn’t love her?” “1 asked him that question” said Mr. East. “He satd that be hated to tell her, but if he had thought that matters would have turned out as they did he could have done more for the girl' Wood said that a number of the best’ girls in Greencastle were glad to be in the ccmpany of Jackson.” Mr. East thinks there is no question about the statement that Jackson and Walling took the poor girl to Fort Thomas and murdered her there. H» thinks that the head was tied to a weight and thrown in the Ohio river. He does not think that a mob will lynch the accused. Mr. East says the fact that Col. Nelson, who is well known in Greencastle, is going to prosecute the case has much to do with the feeling that justice will be given. Col. Nelson is a power before a jury and with the strong evidence at hand Mr. East says there is no doubt about conviction. Pref. Howard Sand Wo a DaeRoroualjr 111. Terre Haute Express. Professor Howard Sandisnn of the State Normal faculty was taken ill last Friday, the case developing into a severe attack of pneumonia on Sunday. He was so low yesterday that a notice was placed on the door of his resilience, on north Center street, notifying the numerous callers that they could not be admitted. Early in the morning respiration had almost ceased and it' was feared the end was near. Professor Gillum brought the oxygen tank from the laboratory and after Professor Saadison had made several inhalations he began improving. Professor Gillum remained at the sick man’s bedside all night, making applications of the oxygen as needed. It may be several days before it can be determined if there is hope of Mr. Sandison’s recovery. The students of the normal, who hold Professor Sandison in deepeffeetton, have arranged to send a box of cut flowers to him every day during bia illness. Mr. Sandison has many friends in Greencastle.
