"Medicine," said some learned philosopher, "Is the art of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease."

One of -the of the happy homes of to-day is a vast fund of information as to the best methods of promoting health and 'happiness and right living and knowledge of the world's best products. Products of actual excellence and reasonable claims truthfully presented and which have attained to world-wide acceptance through the approval of the Well-informed of the World; not of individuals only, but of the many who have the happy faculty of selecting and obtaining the best the world affords.

To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists.

Bank Robbers in Kansas Hold People of Cuba at Bay While They Work.

THEN MADE THEIR ESCAPE.

Cuba. Kan., June 2. Four men robbed the State Rank of Cuba here and escaped with between $6,000 and $8,000, after a fight with citizens. No one was shot, however. Posses are "in pursuit, but the robbers have a good lead and are believed to have made good their escape. John Tohlei. Cashier, lives across the street from the bank. The explosion that wrecked the safe awakened him, and he hurried from the house to give the alarm. The robbers fired in Tohler's direction and commanded him to keep still. He went back into the house. Other residents appeared on the scene, but, while some of the robbers kept guard at the doors of the bank and warned the citizens to keep at a distance, the others finished their job. After the vault had been ransacked the robbers went to the Rock Island Depot, boarded a hand car and disappeared in the direction of Belleville. The robbers were masked, so that while many saw them it will be difficult to identify them.

Chicago, June 2. Republk-an National convention pontics has begun, and by the end of the week will be in full sway with the session of ihe Na

tional committee, which meets at the Coliseum Annex Friday to take up the delegate contests, involving seats. The leaders are not alarmed over the large number of disputes, as the major portion comes from the South, where there is always more or less strife for leadership among the republican minority. Taft managers say they are not disturbed. The contests will be heard in executive session and the decision will be made public after the hearings in each case. The two contesting sets of delegates

from the nine Alabama districts and the state at large will leave there to

day for Chicago. Several attorneys will accompany each side. The Thompson faction is instructed for Taft and the Davidson followers are unpledged. Mr. Upham, as chairman of the local committee on arrangements, will open headquarters at the Auditorium Annex June 15 for the purpose of distributing convention tickets. Mr. Upham is apportioned one pasteboard to each $100 contributed. He has received thus far, it is explained, $00,000 for convention expenses. Headquarters have been opened by representatives of all the allied candidates. They are concerted in their efforts to defeat the nomination of Taft on the first ballot, their game being to hold it off as long as possible.

RICHMOND PEOPLE GOOD DRESSERS Very few cities in the United States can show as many welldressed people as Richmond, a large per cent, of the men having their clothes made to order. Men can get fine suits made for $15 or $18 when the same goods a tev years ago cost almost twice-a much. For seven years Emmons Tailoring Co. have been making fine suits at $15 and $18 and the business has Increased every year. They are now showing the largest stock they have ever shown. Over 600 styles In spring suitings.

Mrs. S. L. Bowen. of Wayne, W. Va., writes: "I was a sufferer from kidney disease, so that at times I could not get out of bed, and when I did I could not stand straight. I took Foley's Kidney Remedy. One dollar bottle and part of the second cured me entirely." Foley's Kidney Remedy works wonders where others are a total failure. A. G. Luken & Co.

Nothing to Get. "Nearly all good papers fail," said a man who had been through the mill himself. "I have an aged friend who runs a splendid paper in a 6mall village. The last copy my friend sent me had this editorial paragraph marked: " 'Burglars entered our house last night. To the everlasting shame of the community for whose welfare we have labored thirty-eight years, be It said, they got nothing.' "

New York, June 2. There were a few republican politicians in the city today who expressed the belief that Governor Hughes soon will let it be known that he would prefer not to have his name presented to the Chicago convention. These men are pledged to Hughes, but feel that the nomination of Secretary Taft is assured, and are eager to get on the "band wagon." Naturally, they would welcome a release from the governor, and they predicted that something along that line might develop from a conference which the governor is to have tonight at the Hotel Astor with General Stewart L. Woodruff.

moonlight. Many readers may not be aware of the fact that the full moon gives several times more than twice the light of the half moon. They may be still more surprised to learn that the ratio is approximately as nine to one. Professor Joel Stebbins and F. C. Brown, taking advantage of the extreme sensitiveness to light of a selenium cell, measured the amount of light coming from the moon at different phases with the result above mentioned. The reason for the remarkable difference shown is to be found in the varying angles of reflection presented by the roughened surface of our satellite to the sun. The moon is brighter between first quarter and full than between full and last quarter. The cause of this is evident in the more highly reflective character of that part of the moon which lies west of its meridian.

Ernest Finley, of this city, representative of the Pittsburg Steel Co., in

It WATSON & SON. Memorial Day was observed in the customary manner at Centerville Sunday. The crowd was the largest that ever attended similar services at Centerville. The principal address of the occasion was delivered by Robert Brown, an attorney of Indianapolis. People from all parts of the county were in attendance. The delegation from this city was large. At the meeting of the board of county commissioners liquor licenses were granted to the following: Charles Morgan, Cambridge City; Edward Muey, Clement Heck, Harry Rohe, Thomas P. Mayer, Louis Wrede, John L. Sullivan, Benjamin Bowing Henry P. Miller and Joseph Iliff, all of Richmond. There was no remonstrance against any of these applicants. The county commissioners visited

the old covered bridge at Goshen this afternoon for the purpose of inspection. This structure Is one of the oldest in the county an1 is in such a bad condition- as to be dangerous. An unusually heavy load would cause It to break and high waters would carry

it away. It is very likely tnat a new structure will be erected within the next year. On the ground he had not shown sufficient cause for action, Neal Kirkman was refused a divorce from Blanche Kirkman in the Wayne circuit court this morning. Kirkman had alleged cruel and inhuman treatment by his wife. His only testimony was to the effect his wife had spoken to him rather harshly. The court held that cruel and inhuman treatment in the light of the statutes refers to physical abuse or the application of words that cause mental distress. The plaintiff and his wife have been separated for less than a year so the plaintiff could not allege abandonment. On the witness stand the plaintiff stated he and his wife had entered into an agreement whereby it was understood he should apply for a divorce and she would enter no contest. Mrs. Kirkman was represented by an attorney, however.

An American Scholar's Work. It should be humiliating for Englishmen to reflect that it was left to an

American, Francis James Child, to

compile the five thick volumes of "English and Scottish Popular Ballads"

which are familiar and invaluable to all students of this subject But self

reproach is forgotten in admiration of

his work. Child himself unfortunately

did not live to finish his task. How

ever, he was more than a scholar and an editor. He was the founder of a

school and he had the gift of being able to transmit to others both his learning and bis zeal. London Saturday Review. Hi. Fair Proposition. "Are you able to support my daughter?" asked the old gentleman. "You know she has pretty expensive tastes, and I don't mind saying that the burden has been pretty hard for me at times." "That's just the point," exclaimed the prospective benedict. "If I marry her we can divide the expense."

Treat Your Flannels Right. If your woolens and flannels mat down after washing, it's because you are using the wrong kind of soap. You can expect nothing else If you use the common yellow sort, which is mostly rosin and offal fats. For perfect cleanliness and to keep woolens soft and fluffy, always use Easy Task soap. It's white and pure and will keep woolen fabrics like new.
