Beiliss Innocent.
Mendel Beiliss has been ac
quitted of the murder of Andrew
Yushinsky at Kiev, Russia, and
the verdict of the world has been
sustained. Beiliss, a Russian ot
the Hebrew faith, was charged
with the murder of a Christian
boy for the purpose of securing
human blood to be used at the
feast of the passover. The mu
tilated body of the boy was
found on March 25, 1911, in a
cave near Kiev. Beiliss was
soon arrested and thrown in
prison where he remained about
two years, during which time
the government, aided by a se
cret society known as the Black
Hundred, used every scheme
within their power to convict
Beiliss of the murder and in so
doing to convict the Hebrews of
' having revived the practice of
the “blood ritual” for which
they were unjustly persecuted
in the early days of the suprem
acy of the Christian church in
Russia.
During the entire two years
'the guilt or innocence of Beiliss
has been a subject ofgrave con
cern in Russia. Conservative
'newspapers that dared to assert
their belief in his innocence were
j suppressed. The chief of a de
tective organization who worked
' on the case and seemed about to
place the guilt on another per
i son was removed from office and
the records of his work destroy-;
ed.
From the day the trial started
on October 8 the odds have been
I
against Beiliss insofar as secur
ing justice was concerned. The ,
Greek Catholics throughout the j
I 1 nil 11 tilu UCIUUllSlIcUlUl^ CUIU j
[ made frenzied efforts to arouse
I the masses to a hatred of the
1 Jews and on the very day the
jury was deliberating a memo
rial service for the murdered j
boy Yushinsky was being held in
a cathedral nearby.
This case aroused the atten
tion of the world. It became an
1 international subject of discus- J
sion. Religious bodies of all de
nominations condemned the:
trial as a persecution of theJews i
i unequalled since the dark ages. |
j The whole civilized world was
nervously awaiting the verdict
' with the fear that the Chris
Itians of Russia would belie the
faith of the Nazarene and bring
reproach upon the followers of j
Christ, by committing an out-1
rage upon the Jews through the
conviction of Beiliss.
Christians the world over will
rejoice that Beiliss has been ac
| quitted.—Jackson (Term.) Sun.
World’s Meanest Man.
We have just heard of the world’s
meanest man. He doesn't like his
wife’s red hair, so he is trying, by fill
ing her days with care, to cause it to

“Printzess"’ Fashion Display At
Theater.
The Printzess Cloak and Suit
Company of Cleveland, Ohio,
through motion pictures, had a
real fashion display at the New
port Theater Wednesday after
noon from 3 to 5. The Com
pany’s special representative in
this city, Mrs. Minnie Balmaz
had sent out hundreds of invita
tion to her customers and friends
to view this fashion display, em
bracing one hundred years and
change of styles during every
ten years of that period.
The pictures were uniquely
gotten up and were thoroughly
enjoyed by the ladies as well as
a large sprinkling of men whose
laughter could be heard through
the house, when the old style
hoop skirted dress calling for
fifteen or twenty yards of goods,
was placed beside the narrow
“slit skirt” that could be made
from one-third Dip.amount of
goods.
The first picture on the fdm
was a society lady being fitted
by a man tailor for a coat suit
to cost $175, showing the ordeal
of standing for fittings for
hours and after the garment was
delivered was not satisfactory.
Then came the ready-to-wear
“Printzess” model that needed
little or no attention and at the
annual fashion display covering
one hundred years, the 1914
“Printzess” model took the
prize. The closing pictures
showed a number of the latest
models, some of which Mrs. Bal
maz has in stock.
The program was a very credi
table one and not only did honor
to the Balmaz Ladies’ Haber
dashery but to the “Printzess
high-class distinction in dress.

A PHYSICIAN'S OIAGNOSIS 011
KIDNEY TROUBLE. jj
; c
A Seemingly Common Disease [
which Becomes Fatal through [
Neglect and which May Be j
Readily Cured by Prompt At
tention. j
More than two-thirds of the annual ■ ,
death rate, physicians claim, is directly |
traceable to kidney disorders. |
Interested by this remarkable asser- ,
tion and desiring to acquire a better un
derstanding of the origin of the disease,
a prominent physician was recently in
terviewed as to the symptoms of sucj
troubles.
“To what do you attribute the great
destructiveness of kidney disease?” was
asked. _ . j
“The hold which the disease gams m
the body before the victim becomes aware j
of his true condition, and the rapidity |
with which it eats its way into the vita!
organs.”
i “Would not the proverbial 'ounce o!
prevention’ check the progress of the
disease?” ( j
“There is no doubt of it. The trouble
is that victims of this disease mistake j
the symptoms for some trifling ailmen;
in the stomach or bowels; therefore the*
do nothing to arrest the course of the
disease until it is well advanced.
I “What is the origin of kidney trouble?’ ;
“Almost invariably bad digestion, fo. !
1 lowed by torpid liver and a constipated
habit.”
“What are the symptoms?”
“Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish j
1 brain, restless nights, pale or sallow j
j jkin, bad breath, lack of appetite, heart
I burn, sour belching, backache or tender,
ness over the kidneys, nervous weak
ness, dark rings around the eyes, tired
1 feeling, too much or too little urine, and
I sediment in urine.”
ITS EFFECT ON THE HEART.
“In what way is the heart affected from
kidney trouble?”
“In all cases the heart is disturbed
though in many instances the palpita
tion does not become alarming until the
disease has advanced to a serious point.
A severe heart throbbing and nervous
1 trembling is noticeable, especially aftet
! a little bodily exercise; the victim fre
quently imagines he has heart disease.’'
HOW TO CURE IT.
“What is the proper course of treat
ment for kidney disease?”
“First, to get rid of uric acid and other
poisons in the system. This can be done
by stimulating the bladder and bowels
so that they will act more freely. The
suffering kidneys must be strengthened,'
the liver and stomach toned up and the
digestion improved.”
Prickly Ash Bitters is a remedy that
answers these requirements completely.
It is not only a system tonic and regu
lator, but its healing and restorative in
fluence will build up the weakened kid- J
neys and urge them to a better perform- j
ance of their duties. It gives strength ;
and tone to the liver, stomach and heart I
and promotes harmony of action through
out the body.
M. W. Burr, village blacksmith and respected
Citizen of Starks, La., says: "I was troubled with
kidney and liver disorder for 18 years. I was in
continual misery until I began taking Prickly
Ash Bitters which has entirely cured me, and l
am now a strong, healthy and hearty man. 1
give it to my wife and four children and they ar'
in the best of health, too. I feel that Prickly Ast
Bitters is the best remedy on earth and tha:
everybody should keep a bottle at home.”
