Under an order issued by
Judge F. D. Fulkerson of the cir

was carried to the supreme court,
which body recently affirmed the
decision of the lower court in or
dering their destruction.
The stock consisted of seven-;
teen barrels of whiskey, several
barrels of bottled wines and
thirteen or fourteen cases of
beer, and has been stored in one
of the downstairs rooms at the
court house.
Sheriff Bandy directed the
work of destruction and the odor
of liquor from broken barrels
could be detected several blocks
away, attracting quite a crowd
of spectators.

FAVORITE HOME PAPER.
Why the Twice-a-Week Republic
Has Achieved Such Wide
Popularity.
Established for nearly a cen
tury and read regularly by more
than 500,000 persons in the west
and southwest, the Twice-a-Week |
Republic of St. Louis can justly |
lay claim to that enviable dis
tinction, “Favorite Home Pa
per."
It is great because it has al
ways aimed to inform, instruct
and entertain its readers on all
matters of public and home in
terest. In 1904 it will be espe
cially interesting and valuable.
Here are some reasons why you
should subscribe for it:
This is campaign year and you
will want to be informed of the,
movements of party leaders, re-;
portsa>f the great national and I
state conventions, the progress1
of the campaign, reports of the
election, etc.
You will want to know all
about the World’s Fair, to be
held in St. Louis from April 30
to December 1,1904.
You will be interested in and
kept well informed by the farm
visitor, a regular supplement of
the paper, prepared especially
for the farmer and his family.
You will want to know what
the world is doing in every field
of activity, and through the un
surpassed news and special ser
vice of the twice-a-week Repub
lic you will not be disappointed.
In short sketches, choice bits
of fiction, articles of interest to
women, children and household
suggestions the Twice-a-Week
Republic easily leads among the
weeklies of the great West.
If you want the Twice-a-Week
Republic sent to your address,
order it at once direct from the
office at St. Louis, Mo., or
through your local newsdealer.
It costs only $1 a year.
$5.00 REWARD
Will be paid for information
establishing the guilt of the
party who threw poisoned meat
into my yard, thereby causing
the death of my white dog.

that she was taking yotg I

a woman who lays aside the active

years after she has passed 60. This
is truly a critical time.
Mrs. Laura S. Webb, of Toledo,
Ohio, recognizes the change of life
as a dangerous period and she also
has faith in Wine of Cardui. She
writes:
“As I had always been troubled more
or less at the menstrual period, I dreaded
until I have passed the climax. I do not ll
dread it now, as I am sure that your II
Wine of Cardui will be of great benefit ll
at this time." * I
