They haven't that fine empty-hungry eat-cverything-jn-sight kind of feeling which goes with every good strong healthy stomach. That'a because they have dyspepsia. And then there are others whose mouths don't water at meal time or at any other time. They Bit at the table and go through the motions, only because It's time to eat. These people, too. are dyspeptics.

Each Depository Will Pay the County Three Per Cent Interest on All Money Deposited With It in the County.
The county board of finance met today and received proposals from the Greensfork National bank, the First National Bank of Richmond, the Union National Bank, the Second National Bank of Richmond, the Richmond Trust company and the Dickinson Trust Company, to be made depositories of the county's moneys. As all of these banking institutions qualified, the county board of finance made each of them a depository. The county board of finance estimated that the largest amount of money the county treasurer will ever have on hand at any one time will be about $216,000. The combined amounts of what each banking institution appointed a depository asked for, makes a grand total of $237,000. Each day, beginning the first of January. County Treasurer B. B. Myfick, Jr., will apportion .out the mon ey he has on hand to each depository, in proportion to the capital stock of each institution. Each depository will pay the county three per cent, interest on the money deposited with it by the county. The institutions appointed depositories have specified in their proposals the maximum amount they wjU receive from the county as follows: ITnlnn National $50,000 Greensfork National 7,500 Richmond Trust Co 3",000 First National 50,000 twiTiHs National 70,000 Dickinson Trust Co. 3,000 A tioribtfnl Compliment, Although Mr. Ilobbs was taken at his face value by his son and heir, there were times when the youth'ul William's admiring tributes embarrassed his parent In the family group. "I bad quite an encounter as I cam home tonight," the valorous Mr. Hobbs announced at the tea table. "Two men, slightly intoxicated, were having a quarrel on the corner. As usual, there was no policeman in sight, and they were in a fair way to knock each other's brains out when I stepped between and separated them." "Weren't you afraid, father?" asked Mrs. Hobbs in a quavering voice. "No, indeed! Why should I be?" inquired Mr. Hobbs, inflating his chest. "I guess there isn't anybody could knock any brains, out of my father!" said Willy proudly. Youth's Companion, Cock Croweri-An Extinct Trade. "Cock crowers In the past got good pay," said an antiquary, "li.u theirs is an extinct business now. Cock crowers were employed by the rich in their town houses to crow the hour. They crowed only the rising hour for the most part, but during Lent they crowed everything even the halves and quarters all night long. It was a kind of penance. These men were trained from childhood to crow. Sometimes in their childhood an operation was performed,. on their throats to give them a more cocklike delivery. An ancestor of mine on the maternal side was a famous cock crower in his day." Loudon Graphic. Influence. No human being can come Into the world without Increasing or diminishing the sum total of human happiness, not only of the present, but of every subsequent age of humanity. No one oan detach himself from this connection. There is no sequestered spot in the universe, no dark niche along the disk of nonexistence to which he can retreat from Iiis relations to others, where he can withdraw the influence of his existence upon the moral destiny of the world. Everywhere be will have companions who will be better or worse for his influence. A Costly Hat. Women's hats are both common and costly, as a rule, but a woman in Brunsw ick who made no great pretentions to fashion holds the record for the highest price paid for an article of millinery. She bought a hat with a lottery ticket whicb the merchant accepted in place of the money. A few weeks later the ticket drew the great prize of 15.000. and. though the woman's husband tried to induce the merchant to share the results, he only received 25. That hat cost 14.075. Loudon Standard. P0ST0FFICE BUSY.

A man in the Tombs for theft consulted three different lawyers, each of whom seemed unwilling to uudertake his defense. The fourth man Interviewed was also on the point of declining the case. "Look here!" the accused broke out angrily. "What's the matter with you fellows, anyhow? This isn't a difficult case. You ought to be able to get me off easily, and I'm willing to pay." "The trouble is this." said the fourth man frankly. "You are very deaf. No lawyer likes to defend a deaf man unless he is hard pushed for clients or is going to receive a tremendously big fee. i A deaf man is so very likely to queer his own case. If he would only trust implicitly to the lawyer he would be all right, but that is something he seldom does. lie cannot hear what is go- ' ing on about him. so he Hies into a ) panic and fancies his lawyer is neglect- J ing his interests, and the first thing j anybody knows he blurts out something that ruins the cnst i really can't j blame thos other i:iea for turning you j down.

Saturday night at midnight, in the dark of the moon, Ancil Roberts and Charles Bell, both colored, descended on the cit restaurant chicken coop, which is lo?ated in the alley in the rear of that hunger-appeasing establishment. Quietly sleeping within this coop, unaware that danger was near, were twelve fat fowls. Suddenly a dark hand shot into the window of the coop, and a hen came forth. Not squawk was heard. The hand was the property oi Roberts. He passed i the hen to Bell, who twirled it rapidly about, holding said hen by the neck while committing the execution. After tne first hen had been def''j " V'-aVv dead, three others were taken rapidly frcm the coop and all CHILDREN MAKE SACRIFICE TO AID.

At the approach of the guardian of the law, Roberts and Bell, like two dark shades, rapidly vanished into "the clear." Lambertson swears that he recognized both men and that they are guilty. An inspection of the alley in the vicinity of the chicken coop revealed to Lambertson many feathers and much biood. also four chicken heads minus the bodies. Lambertson called upon Officers Edwards. Little and Lawler and a more minute search revealed the fact that the thieves had placed the carcasses of the four late lamented hens between the screen and pane of an alley window looking into the j Shurley livery barn. The officers then started out to search for the thieves. In a short time Bell was found in an alcoholic slumber in the Shurley barn. There was considerable blood and many feathers on his person.

It didso much real good, hundreds of $ people writing me that It difi, that I have asked the X publisher of this paper to publish it again this year. ? Most everyone eats a little t too much on Christmas. Too 2 much candy and rich food, all in a day or two, causes 1 : . Intestinal indigestion, headache and constipation, even with children and grownups who never suffer such effects at any other time. Just assist nature a little with a pleasurable, harmless, nonirritating physic. A sweet, little pill, easy to take, pleasant to act, and cheap, too. Probably you know what 111 say next, because most everybody has tried "Blackburn's Cestor-Oil-Pills." Give the children one pill Christmas Eve so they'll enjoy the candy, nuts and good dinner next day. Take one yourself. Christmas night, before retiring, give the children another pill and take one or two yourself, drinking a little water afterwards. Next day, you won't have the blues, nor feel dull, sick and Irritable. Thousands have tried it and know it's true.

Number of Experts Have Made A Partial Investigation of The Monongah and Dan Mine Horrors.
Hazleton. Pa.. Dec. 23. More than 150 miners narrewly escaped drowning today in the No. 4 Slope of the Lehigh Valley and Wilkesbarre Coal comany at Audenreld through the unexpected tapping of a large body tf water In the abandoned No. 1 slor adjoining. The water reached to iht thins of some of the men, who got to. the surface through two separate openings. A thorough examination showed that only one life was lost. The victim was Anthony Salviski. of IlcAdoo. who set off tho blast that released the water. If the mine had been equipped with shafts, with cages running tip and down like elevators Instead of slopes, up which men can walk, there might hsve been a great loss of life, as the cages can only carry about a half dozen men on each trip. The rush of air was t great when the water broke through that the lights on the lamps of most of the men in the slope were extinguished. Th Tloods rapidly subsided. Nine men lost tnelr lives in this mine last July through white damp. CLIMATIC CONDITIONS Are Held Responsible for Mine Ex plosions. Pittsburg, Dec 23. A number of experts who have made partial Investigations of the Noami-Monongah and Darr mine disasters arc taking the position that the explosions are partly due to climatic conditions. It Is a noticeable fact, they say, that the recent catastrophes have occurred at about the same hour in the da, In a zone of certain altitude. In about the same longitude and In places where fill ma tic conditions are similar. The majority of the mines being operated today are below the level of the streams iu the same sections, and owing to the moisture the outside air forced into the mines by the fans has been laden with carbon dioxide moisture and other impurities. It Is suggested that if the air forced into tho mines was gathered from a higher stratum and was heated sufficiently and otherwise treated to remove tho Impurities the accidents would be less numerous during the change of seasons. Proper venthatiou with this purified air, it is believed, will remove to .i great extent the coal dust and explosive gases which are found to a certain extent in every mine. CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY As to the Cause of Disasters Asked By Senator. Washington, Dec. 2.'5. Senator Scott, Y. Va.. has Introduced a Joint resolution providing for the appointment of a commission to consist of three Senators and three representatives to make an investigation into the recent ex plosions In coal mines in West Virginia.
