stood shivering on the front platform, and
speetively. The Carden family grouped
themselves about the fireplace on the
north side of the court house, and
the father, mother and four
sons, all wore a dejected and hunted look.

this evidence will be for or against the

be music in the air for one side or the

One of the witnesses for the defence is a
“nice” young man named John Wright.
Mr. Wright is the young man, who, it is
said, sometime ago announced his willing

boys confess the murder, and who subse

Up to a few weeks ago I considered my

During the yours that I have been affile ted ;
I have tried almost everything claimed to
be u Bpeciiie for Dynpcpsia in the hope of
finding somethin# that would afford per
manent relief. 1 had about made up my
mind to abandon all medicines when 1 no
ticed an endorsement of Himmonb Liver
Regulator by a prominent Georgian, a
jurist whom 1 knew, and concluded to try
11« effects in my case.. 1 have used but
two bottles, and am satisfied that I have
struck the right thing: at last. 1 felt its
beneficial effects almost immediately.
Unlike all other preparations of a similar
kind, no special instructions are required
as to what one shall or shall not eat. This
fact alone ought to commend it to all j
troubled with Dyspepsia.
