FRIDAY, FEIiRUARY 7, IS-.H)
Andrew Weaver, sixty •Ave years of age,
was found murdered on Tuesday morning
in front of the house of his daughter-in
law, Fiette Weaver, about three miles
from t'oburu, in Centre county, Pa. He
bad been stabbed through the heart with
a butcher knife. Fiette Weaver, Jonas
Aumnn and his mother, Mrs. An man, were
arrested, and Fiette Weaver was com
mited by a justice of the peace as the
mnrdeur, and the others were committed
as acct ssorit s. They were lodged in jail
at ISellefonte. Weaver and his daughter
in-law ha 1 fi'equeutly quarrelled, and she
is said to lii'vtt threat,enid to " kill him if
she got the chance."
A beautiful young lady became so sarlly
disfigured with pimples and blotches Lhat
it was feared she would die of grief. A
friend rt com mended Ayer's Sarsopariia,
which she look, and was completely
cured. She is now one of the fairest of
tbeCfair.
Poor Elunanity !
The common lot 1h one or sorrow say-at least
—the pessimists, ihey who look at the worst
side, certainly what would otherwise he a
bright existence, Is often shadowed by some all
meat that overhangs it like a pall, obscuring
perpetually Iho radiance that else would light
the path. Such an aliment, and a very common
one, Is nervousness, or in other words, weak
ness of the nervous system, a condition only Ir
remediable where lnemclent or Improper means
are taken to relieve it. The concurrent experi
ence of neivous ptople who have peislsiently
used liostetter's stomach Bitters is, lhat It con
quers entirely supen-ensltlveness of the nerves,
as well as dlseases-so called-whlch are Invited
and sustained by their chronic weakness, AS
the nerves gain stamina from the great tonic
the trouble disappears. Use the Bitters for
■n&larla, rheumatism, biliousness and kidney
troubles.
