Baldness is either hereditary or caused by sickness, mental exhaustion, wearing tight-fitting hats, aud by over work and trouble. Hall's Renewer will prevent it.
The Mount Lebanon Shakers have recently perfected an iugenious cure for dyspepsia. Tfaeir Digestive Cordial consists of a food already digested and a di gester of foods happily combined.
The importance of this invention will be appreciated wheu we realize what a proportion of the'community are vicims of some form of stomach trouble. Thousands of pale, thin people have little inclination to eat, and what they* do eat causes them pain and distress.

PROFESSIONAL JUROR
His Days Are Numbered in the Circuit Court.
NEW COURT RULE ESTABLISHED.^!
It Is Practically a Boycott on the "Profes- ,f sional Juror"—3Iangled by a Cross-Cut Saw—Death of an Old Circuit Rider.
Prisoners Attempt to Escape—Other In- '.f| diana State News. •.. CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Dec. 2i Judge James F. Harvey of the Mo gomery circuit court is about to establish a new court rule which will practi cally do away with the "professiona juryman,*' who has been such an annoy ing curse to all the courts in Indian? from time immemorial. The "profes sional" is always present in force at tin opening of court each term, and is im portunate in his efforts to secure those places on the jury made vacant by tht excuse of those of the regular panel who can not serve.
Judge Harvey proposes to guard against this class by ordering the jury commissioners to draw the regular panel of
12
and tl en either four or six additiomil talesr en who can be called in to take the places of those of the regular panel excused by the court. The sherill's declare that the professional juiymen become more numerous every year, and are mo§t annoying, rendering a sheriff's position, especially in election' years, most embarrassing.
Mangled by a Cross-Cut Saw. SULLIVAN, Ind., Dec. 25.—While instructing some new workmen in the 'j sawmill of Mahley & Company, Adam Mahley, superintendent, was frightfully mangled by the rebound of a crosscut saw. Mr. Mahley was leaning over, after having shoved the saw forward, when instead of catching on an automatic hook as it should have, the saw came back with a quick swing, catching him on the top of the right slioulder, tearing and cutting the bones and flesh down as far as the elbow before he could jump hack. The right side of his
body is frightfully bruised, and Dr.-'" Stocks, who administered to the injured man, says that there is only a slight hope of his recovery. 5
Triod to Break Out.
WABASH, Ind., Dec..2o.—The prisoners in the Wabash county jail have been detected in another attempt to saw out. Sheriff McKahan was in the country, and the deputies were attracted to thecorridor of the jail by the prisoners, who were singing loud and incessantly. As this exuberance of spirit was unusual, the deputies investigated, and found that while the concert was in progress one of the prisoners had sawed more than half through a bar in the window on the west side of the cellhouse, and on the approach of the deputies had covered the saw mark with butter. *,3
