THAT UNKNOWN WE
DETECTIVES WORKING ZEALOUSLY TO FATHOM MYSTERY
ONE SUSPECT IS EXAMINED
Local Insurance Agents Being Used as Detectives—There are Many Different Theories.
Though little is being said. Detectives Smith it,ml
Fedderson are working day
and night in au effort to apprehend the dastardly brute who murdered the babe and buried it in the Vandalia gravel pit last Friday night.
While they have yet been unable to find a c.ue which gives rise to a great deal of hope, they are not discouraged and are determined that the guilty murderers shall be apprehended and punished. All sorts of rumors come to the ears of the detectives and each is traced down, while at the same time ears and eyes are kept open for new leads. The different insurance companies have solicitors who have been going from house to house in all parts of the city ior the past two years and they are to a great extent familial- with the women of different families and their characters and they were able to give information of women or girls who would likely have cause to resort to such a desperate measure to conceal shame. The detectives visited the insurance offices and solicited the solicitors for such information, and the may yield results.
Yesterday the detectives got hold of a rumor, which they followed to a point which justifies an examination of the woman suspected. Two physicians were called and the woman was examined, but no evidence of guilt was found There are rumors of other persons, and they will also L»e traced to the bottom. It is the general opinion that the parent of the murdered child lives in the. east part of the city, lest the babe would have been thrown in the liver, and as the coroner says the child had not been dead more than three hours before it was found, it is certain it would not have been carried a great distancp. One rt\ystery of the case is why the arm and leg were torn from the trunk. The theory that the body was mutilated in order, that it might bo forced into the ..dirty ca,n, is too terrible to be credited. Some are of the' opinion that the child, was brought in on one of the andalaa trains, another that is not thought to be probable, as the murderer could not have escaped from the train with his weird baggage without being seen, and it is hardly probable that any person would attempt such a thing. That the child was born and murdered not a great distance from where the dead body was found appears to be the general and most logical .conclusion, and the detectives are working on this theory, though they are giving strict attention to all other rumors pertaining to the horrible butchery. They aay that the secret may bo kept from them for a time, but "murder will out" and that eventually something will be dropped which will lead to arrest. It is certain that gomo besides the guilty one know of the affair and the first time there is a womsjji $ quafre.l ,in the vicinity the terrible secret i'lll be rev ia led through spite. This is. the theory of the detectives, and they are pinning great hope to it. They believe that when the facts are disclosed it will be found that some man has taken part in the murder, and it was no doubt a man who deposited the corpse where it was found. This theory is based on the belief that it would have
KOLA NUTS
CAN BE SEEN AT THE THREE OWL DRUG STORES.
A very peculiar nut imported from Africa that" is peculiar not only in appearance but in its medicinal action. With the use of Kola Nuts it ma.ves a peculiar cough remedy, that is very peculiar in taste, name and action. No other remedy like it, peculiar within itself, because it grives never failing results in curing the most obstinate cough, bronchial andl lung diseases. Air ordinary cough it cures as if by magic. Peculiar, very peculiar, because it's the only cough cure that conremedy that

E. H. Robinson, proprietor of the Owl Drug Stores, has added another wellstocked drug store from Mark Beal, better known as the Dunnigan Drug Store. Th^ Dunnigan store was One of the high priced drug stores, one of the stores which belonged to the pru^, Trust to uphold high prices. TJie people of the north end know the Dunnigan stock is one of the most complete stocks in the city. "The Owl has also added several thousand articles to the stock and will sell drugs at th$ same prices as their Main street stores. The Owl stores saye ycu,from one half to ojie-thtrd the purch&str^i*drugs.

INFLUENCE OF FLOWERS
Blossoms Are Companions of Dainty Women of Japan. The Japanese woman is the most appealing human being in the world, for one's sympathies are always quickened for those whose physical presence sug gests lightness, deftness, grace and airiness. Such qualities seem to spell something other than mere duty, no matter how good a foundation stone for the other virtues that may be. The followers of the goddess of Duty bear the visible facial marks. Lacking such traces, one sees that there is some other softening influence at work—something that keeps the mind exercised and healthy, which takes the placff of the social habits, comradeship, lovers and all that fill the European and American woman's leisure moments and dreams without which life would be but time serving. Here in the "land of the rising sun" woman's dream of man is not ideal, and there is no ex peetant joy in the thought of meeting some day a hero invested with a thousand virtues or even one possessing an adorable pet crime. The Japanese woman accepts without remark that men are born to be mere husbands and fathers of families, and a sixteen-year-old girl submits to duty and is willing to be the faithful wife of Tomoto. Dickoto or Harryoto whenever lier parents re quest it.
The emotional depths of her nature remain untouched the contemplation of the sacrament of matrimony does not make the pulse bound one iota more quickly. '"Love to her is," otherwise she were not woman but it is not dreamed of in such connection, and must be expended in another direction.
The girl child, kept under restraint and repression, subject to the will and whim of her elders and superiors, would seem to acquire no individuality. One might remark, "See the Japanese woman and from her write the history of all Japanese women." But there is always something more than cold facts.
With a better acquaintance and understanding the pretty truth dawns that tlaefgMs something wherewith to nourish the inner life, to keep beautiful and flagrant and joyful the dreams of maidenhood. It is more than a pretty thought. Nature's softening influences operate in this land of beauty in an ideally practical manner.
The' gods sent the beautiful flowers of Japan not only to give pleasure and beautify, but to bring companionship and to satisfy. It is the flowers and blossoms, leaves, buds, twigs and branches that are to the women of Ja pan the "men of higher stature/' as books are to the book lover when congenial companions are not discoverable. Flowers are the living and growing things that the imaginings of these little women lean on as on a crutch— something real and! satisfactory. For nowhere in the world are flowers and flower arrangement given serious consideration and love as they are in this eastern country. "We are like what we love," it has been said and without any scientific reasoning, without invoking any system of mnemonics to the association of ideas, the practical western mind even that knows anything of that nation immediately couples the words "women" and "flowers" of Japan Certainly poets have ever done so when speaking or sing" ing the charms of their lady loves, but here even the disinterested, globe trotters recall the Japanese woman's face in their minds surrounded with a frame of plum or cherry petals.
The Universal Apple.
The latest estimate places the total number of apple trees of bearing age in the United States as something like 20,000,000. This is nearly three trees to every person. Tha^gj) trees yield' more than 175,000,000 bushels. Not all of thes apples are consumed at home, for in years of ful crop more than 3,000,000 bushels go obroad. Yet, the apples kept at home are more than two bushels for every adult and child. We are a nation of apple eaters. This fact may not be to our credit, however, when we remember that a good part of all these apples are Ben Davis and other kinds that a refined and cultivated taste would not
remedy that choose for its dessert. Yet probably half
the drug trust fights on the account that our people never raise an apple, and or the Owl has the controlling agency. Kola
1 lbut
the half who do raise them a small percentage grows for market and of those who grow for market, only a part make a profit from the business. Yet there is money in apple growing.
Air Baths.
"Air baths" are all the rage in fashionable Berlin just now. We all know what necesary factors light and air are for the maintenance of health. The Berlin air baths have the great advantage of being pleasant as well as healthy and many of the society ladies of .the German capital have taken them up. Even the tiniest children are taken to these "baths," as well as young girls and more elderly ladies.
The main object, of course, is the exercise of both the muscles and the lungs at the same time, and the nondescript kind of bathing dress worn allows the ladies a delightful sense of reedom while practicing their gymnastic feats or playing at gardening in the grounds. It is scarcely necessary to add that the garden is kept as secluded as possible. Surrounded by high -walls it is situated in a quiet locality just outside of the city.

Bootlessness of Wealth.
The administrator of the Fair estate says that in Paris a $30 imitation sable cloak was substituted for the real thing —one of the most valuable cloaks in the worldr—among Mrs. Pair's effects also, that Mr. Fair was in his lifetime, to use a slang phrase, "just puddin'" for Parisian jewelers, who sold him what was supposed to be valuable strings of pearls, but which turn out to be imitations. It seems that it takes experts to tells the difference. At the best average comment would be, "What's the odds?"
Aesop has a fable of a misei*. who got all his store in the shape of gold which he buried in his garden. He was wont to visit it and gloat over it. At one visit finally he found the hole empty and he "troubled deaf heaven with his bootless cries."
A friend hearing him, inquired the cause, and then gave this sound piece of advice, "Just put a stone there and think that it is your gold and it will do you just as much good." So, in the present case, what is the difference between fine sables and real ones? The one will keep the wearer as warm as the other, and be, so to say, just as sightly. And the same thing is to be said for the imitation pearls. Neither of them comes under the Lead of productive capital. Aside from the question of covering as clothes, which does not come in here, both belong to the barbaric category of ornamentation, in which the last development of human kind seems to touch the first.
Dr. Davidson will become Archbishop of Canterbury, a place created for St. Augustine and which was subsequently occupied by St. Thomas a Becket, who was murdiered in the cathedral 722 years ago. Aside from supplies voted by Parliament for the expenses of the Lam beth palace, the archbishop has a stipend of $75,000 a year from the Church of England. In precedence he ranks next to the king.

A NIGHT ALARM.
Worse than an alarm of fire at night is the brassy cough of croup, which sounds like the children's death knell and it means death unless something is done quickly. Foley's Honey and Tar never fails to give instant relief and quickly cures the worst forms of croup. Mrs. P. L. Cordier, of Mannington, Ky., writes: "My three year old girl had a severe case of croup the doctor said she could not live. I got a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar, the first dose gave quick relief and saved her life." Refuse substitutes. All druggists,.
