There remain only as sfrcumstantialevl dence of guilt what has comn to be known as the motive and the Valentine's meat-juico incident. The motive, however regarded, was surely 110 incentive to murder, as inasmuch if I wanted to he free Ih.re was sufficient evidence in my possession (in the nature nf infidelity and cruelty) In secure a divorce, and it was with regard to steps in Unit direction that I had already (alien that 1 made cmfession to my husband after our l'econcilhiion,and to which 1 referred as to the wrong I had done him, b f vnuse of tlio publicity and ruin to his business it involved SICK UNTO DJ-'.ATII.

The motive, which was introduced into the case in the form of a letter written hv me on the Bth of May, in which I said that my husband was sick unlo death, was made much of by the prosecution, unci it led Justice •Stephen to say, in summing up, that I eouiJ nothave known that my husband was dying (except I knew something others did not suspect), inasmuch as the doctors, from the diagnosis, did not consider the c:is?e at all serious. The justice either did not or would not understand (though it was Usiilicd to) that the phrase, sick unta death, is an Amer ican colloquialism, especially of the South, and commonly employed with reference to any illness at uU serious Aulde from tin fact that all hi attendance (?uve and except tho doctors per their medical testimony) did regard it as serious—a witness for the prose cution,Mrs. Ihiggs, testified that she regarded him on that day as dangerously ill, and Mr. Michael Maybriok said that when lie saw his brother on the evening of the same day he was shocked by his appearance. UNSCRUPULOUS ENEMIES.

There should be no Hiuv in the identity of the bottle which was handed to the analyst and the one which was in my hands, and! think the reader will say that it is impossible to conceive a greater flaw in any evidence ol identity than shown by these witnesses of the prosecution at the inquest, when their minds were freshest as to their respective parts in this incident, and at the trial. Those of my readers who follow the analysis of the testimony as presented by Messrs. Lumley & Lumley can hardly have failed to be impressed by the fact that I was surrounded by unscrupulous enemies, by people who not only had extraordinary knowledge as to where to look for deposits of arsenic, but also remarkable intuitions that arsenic had been administrated before any evidence of the presence of poison had been analytically frtven.

"Grateful Results" A life of suffering and misery, without sleep, without appetite. Restored to health by "I was grievously afflicted with biliousness and liver complaint. My month was in & terrible condition every morning, my tongue thickly coated, my breath was offcu!SS Five, food distressed roe, I suffered much from headache, my skin was sallow, and the many remedies recommends) me did no good. At last I commenced using Ayer's Sarsaparilln, and my improvement began almost from tbe first dose. It relieved the distress about my liver, caused my food to digest well, cured my headache, improved my complexion, and restored my appetite. These unlooked-for but grateful results were accomplished by only two and a hull bottlesof Ayer's Sarsaparilki."— Mks. Lydia M. Taimiox, Altoona, Pa.

LANE'S. No substitute has been found for purs Cod Liver Oil. It still remains the best single remedy for weak lungs, and to strengthen sickly, ailing men, women, or children, lint,—avd this is equally true,—you can materially increase the good effects of Cod Liver Oil by adding to it. Add C-reasotc, Lime, and Soda to Cod Liver Oil in proper proportions, and in the proper way and you have 'a. wonderfully improved lung healer nd body builder. This is exactly what LANE'S EMULSION is, and explains why so many people are buying Lane's Kmulsion in preference to plain oii. and why the health of these people is so much better thin formerly. Buy Lane's Emulsion (chemists or stoics) and take according to tliediiecions sent with each botlle. 161
