awhile , and he has suffered quite badly at
times since.
August Flower.
"It is a charming fact , " says Prof. Houton ,
"that in my travels in all pans of the world ,
for the last ten years , I have met more people
having used Green's August flower than any
oilier remedy , for dyspepsia , deranged liver
and stomach , and for constipation. 1 find for
tourists and salesmen , or for persons filling
office positions , where headaches and general
bad feelings from irregular habits exist , that
Green's August Flower is a grand remedy.
It does not injure the system by frequent use ,
and i& excellent for sour stomachs and indi
gestion. " Sample bottle free at A.McMillen's.

admiration.
Six Frightful Failures.
Six terrible failures of six different doctors
nearly sent Wm. H. Mullen of Lockland , O. ,
to an early grave. All said he had a fatal
lung trouble and that he must soon die. But
he was urged to try Dr. King's New Discov
ery for Consumption. After taking five
bottles he was entirely cured. It is positively
guaranteed to cure all diseases of throat ,
chest and lungs , including coughs , colds , la-
grippe , pneumonia , bronchitis , asthma , hay
lever , croup , whooping cough , 50C and i.
Trial bottles tree at McConnell & Berry's.

are unhappy unless they have something to
worry about.
There is probably no disease more distress
ing and annoying than piles , ' 'fabler's Buck
eye Pile Ojnt'ment is daily curing cases of
year's standing of itching and bleeding piles.
The cure begins on the first application , a
little perseverence makes the cure complete.

here.

harder to overcome malaria , fever and ague ,
and typhoid disease germs than savage can
nibals ; but thousands have found that Electric
Bitters is a wonderful cure for all malarial

in back of neck and head , and tired , worn-out
feeling.a trial will convince you of their merit.

of those who use it. The quick cures which
it effects even in the most severe cases make

There is no pleasure in life if you dread
going to the table to eat and can't rest at
night on account of indigestion. Henry Wil
liams of Booneville , Ind. , says he suffered
that way for years , till he commenced the use

can eat anything I like and all I want and
sleep soundly every night. " Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure will digest what you eat. McConnell &

LADLED OUT WITH A LIBERAL HAND
BY JUDGE HQKE.
The Court Connldcrn the Caae of Ari
zona SP.ID , General Bad Mfc.ii , anil
DlnpOMCH of It Without the Aifl of
' Advice From Ilia Lawyer.
[ Copyright , 1900 , by C. B. Lewis. ]
"This yere case , " said Judge Iloke.
as be called the court to order , "ap
peals to me' not only as the legally
elected and only jestice of the peace fur
the county of Cold Chuck , but to every
man In these dlggln's who carries a gun
and Is supposed to hev the sand to take
keer of hisself. It Is the case of Arizona
Sam versus Pete the Half Breed ,
and Sam is the complainant I see he's
got a lawyer yere to gab fur him , but
thnt lawyer won't hev no talkln to do.
"Let us begin at the bcglnniu. Ari
zona Sam strikes this town a year ago.
He has a yell like a fog horn and he
weighs 200 pounds. lie wears two
guns and a knife , and he bites the
tops off a dozen beer bottles to show
that he was born in a cyclone and cra
dled In a hurricane. He was sized up
fur a bad man , and fur months and
months he's bin cock of the walk. I
can't remember tlmt he's killed any
body , but that was bekase everybody
swallered his bluffs and stepped around
softly. He has defied the vigilance
committee and he has bluffed tills court ,
and It'll astonish ye to find out jest
what sort of o critter he is. Yesterday
mornin he ptarts over the hills fur Tin
Cup City. On the way he meets Pete
the Half Breed. Most of ye know
Pete and most of ye he" heard tliPt
he's got no backbone. Pete was ridin
his cayuse and Sam was hoofin It.
When they come together Sam holds
up his hand and says :
" 'Git off'n that hess ! '
" 'What fur ? ' asks Pete.
" 'Release I want him. '
" 'But he's mine. '
"Then Sam calls him a string of
names 40 rods long. He abuses Pete's
father and mother and all the rest of
"GTT OFF'X THAT BOSS ! "
his relations. He chauks his teeth
rolls his eyes and pulls his guns
wants that cayuse , and he wan
inside of two minutes. Ye may
that Pete , who hadn't any gun
him , turned pale and fell out of the
saddle with a thump , but ye'll be mis
taken if ye do. It took him some
leetle time to realize Jlie.t& uashun , but
he didn't skeer. Wlf&i he got things
straight he slid off his' critter oifcUlit
on to Sam. Did the bold , bad tffah who
has carried the county of Cold Chuck
in his pocket fur a year drill holes
through the half breed as he come ?
Fet a drill. Was thar an awful strug
gle lastiu half an hour before victory
perched on cither banner ? Not a j
struggle. That half breed , who was
thought to be a worm of the dust , takes
the bold , bad man by the nose and
leads -him around fur awhile. Then he
strips him of his weepins , pulls his
ears , slaps his jaw and kicks him
around a bend of the trail.
"What does the terrible terror of
Cold Chuck county do ? Hevin given
hisself away as a coward and a blowhard -
hard does he fall over a cliff that men
may furgit him ? Does he strike out
fur a p'int 1,000 miles away , that his
name may never be known ? Not
much. He comes right.back to town
and to me , and the fust thing he says
Is :
" 'Jedge , I want jestice. '
" 'What sort of jestice ? '
" 'Jestice fur bein held up and robbed
by Pete the Half Breed. '
" 'But why didn't ye shute ? '
" 'He skulked up on me. Gimme jes
tice , jedge gimme lots of it. '
"That was Arizona Sam , bold , bad
man , and I believed his yarn and sent
out a warrant and had Pete arrested.
I was calkerlatin to gin him a mighty
dose of jestice , but hearin his side of
the story has changed my mind. 'Sam ,
the bluffer , stand up. Are ye denyin
that wh'at Pete says is true ? '
" 'He lit on me mighty sudden ,
jedge , ' was the reply.
" 'But you didn't try to pull a gun ? '
" 'Mebbe not. '
" 'And you didn't fight ? '
" 'I don't think so. '
" 'That's 'nuff. Ye ar' simply a great
big blowhard and a bluffer , and ye've
made every good man in this town back
water. We'll be the laughin stock of
Tin Cup , Pine Hill and all the other
diggin's , and we'll feel the disgrace fur
five y'ars. I can't send ye to jail fur
bein a bluffer and a duffer , but I'm
goin to sentence ye to be booted from
this yere temple of jestice to the Red
Dog siloon , and if ye ain't over the
hill and out of town ten rninits later I
won't answer fur consequences. As
fur Pete , he is sot at liberty , and he
kin keep yer weepins and be the fust
man to apply the boot. The rest of us ,
includin the court , will fall in arter
him , and as ye feel yerself lifted cl'ar
off the earth I hope ye may come to
realize that though jestice is blind and
moves along like a kyote with two legs
broke , she keeps reachin out her hand
till she gits the right critter by the
neck. ' " M. QUAD.
