Dyspeptics cannot be long lived because to
live requires nourishment. Food is not nour
ishment until it is digested. A disordered
stomach cannot digest food , it must have as
sistance. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests all
kinds of food without aid from the stomach ,
al'owing it to rest and regain its natural func
tions. Its elements are exactly the same as
the natural digestive fluids and it" simply
can't help but do you good. McConnell &

The following startling item concern
ing two people well known to many of
our readers is taken from the Bee of the
4th instant. Both Dr. and JVIrs. Camp
bell have frequently visited McCook ,
where and in which vicinity they have
had investments' in real estate. The
diyorce suit is a great surprise to all who
know them here :
NEW YORK , June 3. ( Special Tele
gram. ) Judge Chester , in the supreme
court , Brooklyn , today granted a post
ponement of the trial of the suit for
divorce brought by Mrs. Helen Campbell
against her husband , Dr. Robert Camp
bell. This is the case which Judge
Russell , in the same court , last week ,
stopped so abruptly because the cores
pendent , Cora Belle Durham , broke
down on the stand and declared that she
had committed perjury against the defen
dant and had tried to entrap him so that
his wife might obtain a decree.
In court today , George Waldo , counsel
for Mrs. Campbell , asked for an adjourn
ment , saying that it was necessary for
him to go to David City , Neb. , where
acts of impropriety on the part of Mr.
Campbell are alleged to have occurred.
Mr. Waldo declared that the girl had
been influenced by the defense and made
to come east and change her testimony.
He declared that he could establish this
if he had time to go to David City. The
postponement on this assertion was
granted. The opposing counsel will also
go to Nebraska.
