FREE LUNCH MdMRAMPS REASON ASSIGNED BY "WEARY WILLIE" FOR INCREASE. Excelsior Village Infested with Gangs of Insolent Toughs, Who Keep Women of Place in Threatens One with Revolver to Drive Him Away. The tramp "'''problem is becoming extremely serious at Excelsior. Bands of men have been camping on the outskirts of the village and have infested the village itself, causing terror to the feminize population. One approached the residence of Frank Palmer Thiirsday evening and was driven away only when threatened by Mrs.

Palmer with a revolver. Mrs. Palmer saw the man coming and locked all the doors. The man knocked loudly and persistently. Mrs.

Palmer ventured to ask what he wanted. He replied that he wanted to get in.

'He was informed by the leader that they had no intention qf leaving until, they were ready.1 Powers started to rout the gang, which at once showed fight. They had not taken into account, however, a reserve force. This was the "as- sistant chief of police," the officer's dog, which attacked the tramps right and left.

Elliott, the Minneapolis inventor who tried to force an audience with President Roosevelt and was afterwards adjudged insane and, sent to the St. Peter asylum, from which he soon afterward escaped, is in the city.

Elliott, tho an escaped inmate, cannot be arrested and sent back to the asylum unless he becomes dangerous, information is filed against him, arid he receives another examination' by the county authorities. This Is due to the fact that he has been discharged by the asylum authorities. Elliott escaped on the night of Nov. 10. No trace of him could be discovered and May 10 notice was sent to the Hennepin county probate court that the Minneapolis man had been "discharged, unimproved." The process of reasoning employed by the state officials, by which the conclusion that an insane man committed to their charge who had escaped was regularly discharged, is a mystery to the local officials, but the fact remains that Elliott cannot be taken back without another examination.

Nott "Nothing I Ate Agreed with The Distressing Experience of Mrs. C. F. Meads and How She Cured Herself of Chronic Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Constipation. The Cure Is So Simple, One Should Suffer Longer From These Troubles.

The chronic dyspeptic is probably the most disagreeable person on -earth to get along with. Their trouble makes them nervous, Irritable and miserable. Persons with good digestion can't understand the perversity of the dyspeptic, but if they suffered constantly from everything ate they would regard them more leniently.

She says: "I cannot refrain from pouring out my heartfelt gratitude to the Vernal Bemedy company for ray relief from pain and suffering. Although I. am 66 years old, I do not feel to-day a bit over 30, and when I think of the tired, worn-out woman I was a few weeks ago, I can hardly realize I am that person. I suffered constantly from indigestion, dyspepsia and constipation.

Nothing I ate agreed with me. I finally became so bad that 1 could eat nothing but broth and gruel, and so weak that just walking across the room seemed to exhaust me. I tried three different doctors and patent medicines without number but nothing struck the spot until 1 tried Vernal Palmettona. The sample bottle gave me great relief and I knew I was started on the road to health. I cannot say enough in favor of Vernal Palmettona, and do hope that all sufferers from dyspepsia" and constipation will try this wonderful medicine.

I know from actual experience that it will make them well. It so completely cured me, and I think I was about as sick as any one could be and live." Vernal Palmettona (formerly known as Vernal Saw Pelmetto Berry Wine) is not only a certain and positive cure for disorders of the digestive tract, but all forms of kidney and bladder trouble yield at once to its wonderful curative properties. Chronic catarrh is cured to stay eured by Vernal Palmettona. In cases of weakness its restorative power is truly miraculous. The manufacturers of Vernal Palmettona have so much confidence In their wonderful remedy that they will send free and postpaid to every one who writes for it a trial bottle which you can test and try in your home without spending a cent.

Your druggist keeps Vernal Palmettona or will get it for your if you ask him but anyway sit right down now and write for a sample. Address Vernal Remedy suite 305, Seneca building, Buffalo. N. Y.
