In the "good old days" a tnau's care for his health was marked by the completeness of the armor in which he lock ed himself up. Itwas very tin- healthy in those " merry days " of jovial robber barons , to be outside of the steel case of knigthooil. It was steel vs. steal every It our of the day. In our times a man need a to be armed inside rather than out. The gentle germ is like love in that he "laughs at lock smiths. " You can't lock him out , but you can make it so mighty uncomfortable for him that he'll be glad to get out and seek some other lodging. The greatest protection against disease is a healthy condition of the stomach nnd other organs of digestion and nutrition , Health is the true armor against the germ. The health of the stomach and allied organs is assured to those who use Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It purifies the blood , strengthens the stomach , nourishes the nerves and gi\'es new life to the lungs. ' I There is no alcohol or other intoxicant contained iu "Golden Medical Discov ery.

If there had been any strain we should certainly have found It out before now1 and I should not hesitate to say so.

The num ber of entries on the card Is twenty-two , Just one less than the futurity record , but It la not certain that all these named will go to the post , and It Is hardly likely there will bo added starters , The race Is an extremely open one , not only because of the largo number of proba ble starters , but because of the uncertain quality of the field.

The Kelly woman says the Spring field newspapers have persecuted her with notoriety and that Is her excuse Xor suicide Bert Campbell tonight drew a razor on Guy Uykor , managing editor of the Springfield Republican , and 'tried ' to cut him on account of publications concerning him nnd the woman. On authority from Chief White of Omaha the local pollco confiscate * ! the disputed clothing and reloaded Campbell and the woman from prosecution. The barber shop In which the suicidal attempt was made Is on a prominent street and the place was thronged with patrons. Campbell has well- to-do relatives ihere.

Friday niornlnc , Au gust 11 , when Dolan left town on his usual run he handed the woman $45 with which to pay a month's grocery 1 > llls. Instead of using the money for this purpose the Kelly woman kept It. But this Is the smallest of the charges acalnst her. In the house two rooms were rented to lodgers. Their names nro Lena Iletensky and Hattlo Streetwelser. The younc women owned a number of stylish dresses and a valuable trunk. These Miss Kelly had use lor and during the absence - sonco of the owners the trunk was packed with the dresses , tosethcr with her posses sions , and removed from the house. Satur day afternoon the Kelly woman nnd Hurt Campbell , a .former street car conductor with whom she had been on very friendly terms , loft town on the Burlington railroad. The young women who lodged In the house were first to discover the departure of the pair , but they took no notion until Dolan re turned from his trip. After a consultation the trio decided to prosecute the Kelly woman and Campbell. If they could bo caught , so the police wore asked to look them up. Chief White located the pair In Springfield and had the authorities there place them under arrest. Campbell asserted that they had committed no crime , but had elmply eloped. y W * ACTS GENTLY ON THE KIDNEYS , LBVER AND BOWELS THE 5YSTEM THE GENUINE - MAM'F'D roasuBir iioRu ijT4Ppu jot rtRwmt.
