SURPRISED,
Banqueted and Present
ed a Cane.
Associates of Prof. R. S. Thomas
Do Him Honor.
Officials and stockholders of the
Guardian Savings Bank Co. Thursday
evening surprised and banqueted Prof.
R. S. Thomas, secretary and treasurer
of the Institution, who removed his
family to Cleveland, Friday. Mr.
Thomas Is secretary and treasurer of
the Kentucky Lumber & Veneer Co,,
of Cleveland, and his time will bo
required largely by this position,
hence his removal there. Tho ban
quet -was a testimonial of the esteem
In which Mr. Thomas Is held by his
associates of the Guardian Savings
bank.
The affair was a complete surprise
to Mr. Thomas, who was taken to the
Buchtel Tiotel, where the banquet was
held, at 8 o'clock Thursday evening,
under the Impression that he was
wanted on a matter of business.
When he arrived at tho hotel he found
12 of his business associates there,
and then he became aware of the sig
nificance of the occasion. An elabo
rate banquet was served, and as a
further testimonial of esteem, Mr.
Thomas was piescntcd a gold-headed
cane by members of the force nt the
bank.
S. H. Knox & Co.'s En
tire Stock Destroyed.
Origin of the Fire Remains a
Mystery.
The most dtsatstrous flro that has
been In Akron for mnny months was
that which broke out nt the five and
ten cent store of the S. H. Knox Syn
dicate, 153 Sduth Howard St., shortly
afrer 11 o'clock, Thursday night. The
first alarm was rung from box p at
11:50, and almost before the -tirpart-ment
had nrrlved, a general alarm
was rung, and the entire department
turned out. 1
Tho flro had originated In the base
ment of the building, and before the
department was ready to work, was
burning fiercely on the first floor. It
Is not known how 1 tho flro began, but
tho supposition Is that there was an
explosion of gas. It had evidently
been going for some time before being
discovered.
The firemen were kept busy until
early tills morning, although they soon
liad tho bluzc under control, and pre
vented It from spreading. The entire
stock, estimated to be worth $12,000,
was consumed or damaged beyond
recognition. The flro did not reach
beyond tho bccond floor, nnd tho quar
ters of the Sons of Veterans were not
touched, nlthough the rooms were
filled by smoke. , j.
The stock In tlie store was the prop
erty of the S. H. Knox syndicate,
owning about 30 stores In various
parts of tho country, with headquar
ters at Hartford, Conn. Mr. Frank
L. Knox, manager of the store, de
clined to talk of the loss or of tho In
surance on tho stock, until nfter he
has communicated with headquarters.
There was a quantity of new Christ
mas goods In the store and the loss
was especially heavy, coming at this
time. All of the clerks, also, are
thrown out of employment
The building, which Is owned by
Mr. Henry Kraus, was damaged to
the extent of several thousand of
dollars.
In the store of the P. H. Schneider
Dry Goods Co., adjoining the Knox
store on tho south, the daraago was
confined to that dotvo by smoke nncf,
water, and was small. This Is fuly cov-;
ered oy insurance.
Tho furniture store of Mr. Geo:
Kratz, on the north, was also Invaded
by smoke and water, .and Mr. KrnttJ
estimates his loss at from $1,200 to
$1,500. This, also, is covered fully by
Insurance.
The Goddard photograph gallery, In
tho Arcade, was smoked, but Mr. God
dard says that there was no damage
worth the mentioning.
The future plans of the Knox syn
dicate can only be determined by the
answer to the communication sent to
headquarters by Mr. Frank L. Knox.

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Stomach Trouble and
Indigestion, a Barbarous and
Useless One.
We say the old way but really It
is the common and usual one at tho
present tlmo and many dyspeptics, and
physicians aB well, consider the first
Step In attempting to cure Indigestion
Is to diet, either by selecting certain
food and rejecting others or to greatly
diminish tho quantity of food usually
taken.
In other words the starvntlon plan,
Is by many, supposed to bo tho first
essential In the cure of weak diges
tion. The nlmost certain falluro of tho
starvation euro for stomach tioublo
has been proven tlmo nnd again but
still tho usual advice, when dyspep
sia makes lU appearance, is n com so
of dieting.
All this Is radically wrong. It Is
foolish and unscientific to recommend
dieting or starvation to a person mi
ferlng from dyspepsia because lndifc
tion Itself starves every organ 11
every nervo and fibre In tho bod
What is needed Is abundant in.
tion, not less, and this means plu
of good, wholesome, well-cooked loud
and some natural digestive to assist
the stomach to digest It.
This Is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablots are adapt
ed and this is the way they euro tho
worst cases of stomach trouble.
The patient eats plouty of whole
wmo food, and Stuurt's Dyspepsia Tab
lets digests It for him.
And this Is In accordance with na
ture and common sense because In this
way tho whole system Is nourished
and the overworked stomach rested,
because the tablets will digest tho food,
whether tho stomach works or not.
Ono of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet,
will digest 1800 gralus of meat, eggs,
and similar food.
Any druggist will tell you that Stu
art's Dyspepsia Tablets Is a remedy
of extraordinary value and probably Is
the purest and safest remedy for stom
ach troubles.
No person suffering from poor dlges
tion and lack of appetlto can fall to bo
Immediately and permanently benefit
ed If they would mnko It a practise to
tako ono or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
tablets after each "meal.
A Physician Testifies.
"I have taken Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
nnd have never used anything In my
life that did me the good that did,"
says County Physician Geo. W.
Sciogg8 of Hall County, Ga. "Being
a physician I have prescribed it and
found It to give the best results." If
the food you eat remains undigested
In 'your stomach It decays thero nnd
poisons the system. Tou can pre
vent this by dieting but that mean
starvation. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure di
gests what you eat. You need suffer
from' neither dyspepsia nor starvation.
Tho worst cases quickly cured. Kover
falls.

"I hinted to this girl that I was
married, -and her spiel Is merely a
bluff."
Tho "spiel" to which reference was.
made was that of Mary Allen. Tho
comment upon It was by Chas. Glgautl,
whom Mary accused of Imposing up
on her time nnd affections through
falsely representing himself to be a
married man. Wherefore she had him
arrested. The hearing was In Mayor's
court Friday. '
"I had intended to get a divorce." '
''Then you had Mary picked out for
your second wife?", responded tho,
Mayor.
"I thought It would be nil right' to
look around a little. My wife know1
I Intended to get a divorce."
"Whoro Is your wlfo?" asked the
court.
.'"She's right- here." ,
And Indeed she was-rlllng, anfl
apparently not much 'disturbed by the
words or plight of her husband. Charles.
Is not n big man, nor does the weight
of years bear heavily upon him. He
said, "I am 22," but ho looked more
like an under-sized boy of IS. Gl
gontl came herb from Canton eight
weeks ago. His wife arrived Thurs
day. "In fnct, my wife didn't care when
I told her I was going to get a di
vorce," said Glgantl.
Mary Allen said she had met Gl
gantl nt Salvation Army meeting Sun
day evening, that ho had taken her
home, nnd cnlled on her several times
since.
"When I found out he was married,
I told him to 'Go!' " said Mary.
''If she'd been wise, she'd 1 have
known I was married. I gave ler lots
of 'tips.' I'm sure she knew it." said
Glgantl.
Mary's "spiel" cost Glgantl 525 and
oosts and 30 days In the workhouse
or, In lieu of which a very sudden
exodus from Akron. He chose tho
latter, and even said ho would get out
of tho Stnto. no didn't say whether
ho would take his wife with him, nor
was Inquiry made concerning his fu
ture plans. 1
