TALL CORN
doesn't come by accident A
fertile soil and careful cultiva
tion are necessary to produce
the towering stems and heavy
ears.
Yet the fanner who under
stands that he can't have a
healthy corn crop without
feeding and weeding, seems
to think that he can have a
healthy body without either
care dr culture. Eut the body
is built up just as the corn is,
by the assimilation of the
several chemical elements on
which vitality depends. And
what weeds are to the corn,
diseases of the stomach ard
nutritive systems are to the
body ; they divert the neces
sary food supply from the
proper channels, and th
body becomes lean, sickly
and ill-nourished.
The proper digestion and
assimilation of food is a pri
mary essential of health. By
healing diseases of the stom
ach and organs of digestion and
nutrition, Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery increases
the digestive and assimilative
powers, stimulates the action
of the blood making glands,
and sends to every organ of the
body the rich red-corpuscled
blood on which physical vigor
and vitality depend.
"I took two bottles of Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discor
ery, for stomach trouble," writes
Clarence Carries, Esq.. of Tavlors
town. Loudoun Co., Va. "It did
roe so much good that I didn't
take any more. I can eat most
anythiug now. I am so well
please d with it I hardly know how
to thank you for your kind infor
mation. I tried a whole lot of
things before I wrote to you.
There was a gentleman told me
about vour medicine, how it had
cured his wife. I thought I would
try a bottle of it. Am now glad
that I did. for I don't know what
I would have done if it had not
been for Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery."
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
regulate the bowels and cure

at Concord wai supplied bv a s'ar
route tri weekly mail service from
Wellington, the only star route left
in 'he county.
There is some talk of having the
route started from Geudi Springs in
stead of Wellington on account of t he
country on lowr Slate creek being
more thickly settled than it is up
this way, but the mail facilities at
this office are o much ahead of thoe
at, Geuda thatjirobably they will de
cide to have the application go in for
a route out from this place. This
point will be decided by the special
agent of tbe department who will he

a route, and en his recoronvnRtim

of the proposed routp. The govern

routes h fast, as the Seating officers
can vet around and report on the
application.
Thpre is also talk of a rural free
delivery route from Wellington north
west to the Ansnn neighborhood, and
it is aid tint Hunnewell people have
recent.lv been talking of a route into
that localitv. Now that the agita
ti n h'.s been storied, it, is probable
that, there will be a clamor for rural
delivery routes in various directions
out of Wpllington
Cleanlal" postnffhe, the discontinu
ance of which first suggested the
necessity of rural delivery routes in
thi- county, was established about 25
years ago. For several years past Jas.
Donohue has kept, a stock of goods
there, and kept, the post nffice in his
store. Last year he sold out to a Mr.
Wilcox of Oxford, who took the post
office also. Wilcox is closing out his
stock at auction, and resigned as
postmaster some time ago. Upon the
acreptancp of his resignation thp
office was closed and its mail is now
sent to Concord. Concord Is 3J miles
from Rome, and the postofnp was
kept at the home of Henry Harbaueh
as a neighborhood convenience. The
Concord office will disappear with the
establishment of the rural delivery
nite.
The pay of carriers of rural delivery
outes is limited hi 8600 a year. With
limner county's good mads, the nay
will, it is thought, not be over $500.

in the Morrison trial, denies that lie
and M. I. Simpson and J. M. Helm,
the three jumrs who refused to agree
to a verdici of not guilty, only held
out for manslaughter in the fourth
degree. He states that he considered
Jessie Morrison proven guilty as

thatoneof the jurors tried to throw
away Mrs. Castle's dying statement,
explaining. "It is all the work of that

and I have had it in for him evtr
since." Interesting developments are
expected to follow Juror Nichols' dis
closures. The average man has an idea that
to be a successful fruit raiser he must
go to California or Colorado, although
it has often been demonstrated that
successful fruit growing can be done
in Kansas as well as anywhere else.
D W. Haskins, who lives one mile
east and three north of Argooia, in
the sand dunes of Creek township,
has made success at fruit growing for
many years. He has a young orchard
of 15 or 20 acres, in which he raised
this year the finest apples grown in
the state. He has a great variety
of fruit and berries and makes more
money every year than the average
wheat grower Haskins makes a
study of fruit growing, and has
mastered the knowledge of the busi

SbenS Turner ot Eldorado, was in
Wichita yesterday aod said tbat tie
Jessie Morrison case continues to 1 in
terest the rjeople of Butler county.
Turner is guarded in his expressions
at out tne case, out more from wbat
he does not say tban from what be
does say one is forced to the conclu
sirn tbat be believes tbat Mlns Morri
son will never be proved guilty of the
murder of the wife of Olin Castle.
Speaking of the case Turner said:
"Jessie Morrison has not yet given a
bond, but I bave no doubt of the
ability of her father to secure a good
bond. Judge Morrison told me tbat
be would not be in any hurry, but
that he would submit a good bond.
James flolderman, I have understood,
was expected to slsn it with Judge
Morrison, and liolderman is worth
150,000 to 160,000. I tblok it is true
tbat a majority of the people in Eldo
rado were against Miss Morrison.
That is more particularly the cae
among the women. Soma of the
women there, however, have takeu
Jessiejs side, and where they have
none so they ar for her r a finish. I
can not say that the failure of the
jury to reach an agreement was any
surprise to me. The state', attorneys
made a good ngbt, but tneir side was
injured by sore of tb peopie of
Eldorado who volunteered their ser
vices to aid the county attorney.
People naturally reached the conclu
sion that the great state of Kansas
was abundantly able to prosecute one
little woman, and the action of the
people there in raising money to assist
in the prosecution, or rather the re
port that such a fund bad been raised,
reacted and brought friends to the
defendant. I, of course, am unable
w eajr wiiat me incoming county at
torney will do, but of course the sop
position is that Jessie Morrison will
again be brought to trial. I have
opinions on the case, but it would not
be proper for me to state them fnr
publication." or
