The proper food to build up the system efter an attack of iliness, or any other time, is important to know about. “Last year I had typhoid malarial fe says a lady in Manilla, Iowa, “and it left me so weak I could scarcely turn in bed. I was very nervous; the least noise annoyed me and I could hardly eat anything. “A friend recommended Grape-Nuts food, thinking maybe I would like that, and I did. I commenced gaining strength and am now able to walk around out of @oors, having gained over twenty pounds, Grape-Nuts did it. My little brother used to be thin and pale. Although he scemed to eat enough fcod, what he did eat did him no good. He was put on Grape-Nuts regularly and is now strong and well and gaining fast in flesh. 1 recommend Grape-Nuts to all who are weak and run down.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Toe COURT-MARTIAL CLEARS HANGOGK Army Officer Returns to Duty With a Clean Record. General Hughes approved yesterday the proceedings of the court-martial which tried Captaln Hancock of the Artillery Cerps on charges of drunkenness and found him not guilty. The officer is re- leased from arrest and restored to duty. His record will be in no way affected by the trial. The result is received with general safisfaction on every hand and | Captain Hancock is being kept busy re- | ceiving congratulations. The soldier was arrested by a municipal | police officer at the corner of Geary and | Taylor streets on the morning of October 12 in an apparently intoxicated condition. | At the Hall of Justice he gave a fictitious | name and would have escaped unrecog- nized had he not created a scene by in- | sisting upon the return of his valuables | after he was freed. He could not be made | to understand that the property office was closed on Sunday, and was finally re- arrested for disturbing the peace. Next morning the case was dismissed. A re- port of the affair found its. way into KEMP’S SUPPOSITORIES. A ROBBER! Why Many flo;as Are Cheer- less and Unhappy. There is nothing so desirable as a_happy home, yet how few there really are. No hus- band likes to come home after his day's duty to an untidy house and find a peevish, fretful, unhappy wife; which is not always her fauit. "Tis a woman's duty to greet her husband with a smile, a word of loving grecting to cheer him, but if she is resting under a load of pain she cannot do so, Headaches, dizzy spells, languor, irritability, etc., are each and every one the result of deranged generative organs. If this is what has robbed your home of its happiness, my friend, do something to bring back the smiles, the laughing eyes and loving words, Do something to oust ‘the intruder. A The only way to do it is to use Kemp's Suppositories, a local, healing, soothing rem- edy, contalning no opiates, which will restore heaith to the genital organs, thus strength to the system and happiness fo the home. iviicgs. ot thasik Dear Sirs: Allow me the privilege of thank- ing you for the cure I have found in the use of Kemy's Suppositories, I was treated for three years by two of the most eminent physicians of San Francisco for inflammation and ulceration of the uterus, Which robbed me of the joys of life.

A court was appointed and Captain Hancock was before it for trial on Mon- day last. The testimony of the police of- ficers was to the effect that he had prob- ably been drugged. The prosecution fail- ed to show that the accused officer was intoxicated and there was consequently littlé chance for an adverse verdict. The members of the court decided on an ex- oneration: immediately after going into secret session. The report was forwarded to General Hughes, who signified his full approval of the conclusions. e GIVES BENEFIT FOR THE “LITTLE JIM” WARD Berlin Club of Young People Assists a Worthy Charitable Insti- tution.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL. Few People Know How Useful It Is in Preserving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disin- fectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value wWhen taken into the human system for the same cleansing pur- pose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and im- purities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, it whitens the teeth, and, further, acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it dis- infects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best char- coal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges. They are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal and other harmless antiseptics in tablet . form, or rather in the form of large, pleasant-tasting lozenges, the char- coal being mixed with honey. The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a4 much improved condition of the general health, better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no possible harm can resuit from their continued use, but, on the con- trary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: “I advise Stu- art’s ‘Absorbent Lozenges to all' patients suffering from gas in the stomach and bowels and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but 2 cents a box at drugstores, and although in some sense a patent preparation yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges than of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” rows of Valenciennes inser- tion and lace to match; lib- LADIES’ WARM HOSIERY for cold weather comfort, made of best wool me- - .

Our price..,.. .25¢ in Divorce. Carrie Edwards, who according to a complaint in divorce filed by her October 1 against Homer C. Edwards is a frall, nervous and sensitive woman, appealed to Judge Graham yesterday for leave to file an amended complaint, averring in an affidavit. filed with her petition that since commencing the proceedings she had been made the victim of several acts of cruelty on the part of her husband, which she desired to incorperate in the complaint. Judge Graham gave her the desired permission, and she filed an amended complaint in which she charged Edwards with cursing and abusing het and slapping her face. In her affidavit Mrs. Edwards states that her husband came to her after she had filed the suit for divorce and begged her forgiveness, promising that in the event she forgave him he would behave himself and treat her as a wife should be treated. She for- gave him, she says, and restored him to a place in her affections, believing that he would keep his word. He did so, she says, for several days, and then com- menced abusing her as, she alleges, he did before. Leona 1. Blacklock, who was married to D. R. Blacklock at Reno in January, 1900, ccmmenced an acgtion for divorce yester- day, charging her husband with treating her in a cruel and inhuman manner ever since their marriage. She alleges that hs has refused to allow her to enjoy the company of her sister, Mrs. J. J. Smith, or any company at all, and has, she al- leges, insulted and humiliated her in the presence of her friends. She alleges also that he struck her brother-in-law, J. J. Smith, and ordered him from their home, thereby causing her great mental agony. She asks for a divorce and permission to resume her maiden name, Rothery. ‘Willlam McClure, who keeps a saloon at the corner of Brannan and Beale streets, and his wife, Fannie, are both anxious to secure a divorce, their anxlety resulting in the filing yesterday by each of them ot a divorce complaint. Mrs. McClure arrived at the City Hall first and filed her complaint before her husband’'s at- torney arrived on the scene with his tale of woe. Mrs. McClure charges her hus- band with cruelty, while McClure charges her with infidelity and names George Mc- Cullough as co-respondent. The McClures were married in Ireland two years ago. Other divorce complaints were filed by Clorinda Luporini against Joseph Lu- porini, and Grace A. Warner aginst Fred- erick Warner for failure to provide, and Bernhard Jurgens against Minna Jurgens for desertion. ep—— DRIVERS ADOPT WAGE AND HOUR SCHEDULE Rules Laid Down for Employers and Employes Will Soon Follow.
