Wallace Ross visited Richard X. Fox Mon
day morning and was handed $4,000 in bills,
his share of the purse that was offered for the
Courtney-Ross boat race. The $500 which was
to have gone to the loser was paid
back to Pilkington and Maggie. Mr.. Fox said
to Tribune reporter: "The statement made
by Courtney that there was NO money up on
this race, is an absolute falsehood, and he
knows it. He was in my Office when the
money was posted by Pilkington and Maggie
and saw it put up. 1t is the first time that
such question has arisen in my experience as
stakeholder. If Courtney had rowed and
won the race he would have received the 3d.

ness was strictly on the square"

DR.. T. A. Foster related cases in which by
use OF antiseptio washes and careful removal
OF fragments recovery was effected without
operation. He also believed that phosphorus
acts much like lead in its deleterious effects

more affected than others. Not all painters

1t is safe to take BRANDRETH's PILLS at any
time, but to get the best results they should be
taken on an empty stomach, going to bed. 1t
is we'll on the night you take them to eat little
or no supper. AS no two people are affected
precisely the same by like quantity of the
same medicine, it is difficult to determine the
dose; and it is something which must be left
to the discretion of the patients. We will say,
though, the average dose for an adult is from
four to ten, according to effect.
For Constipation or Dyspepsia, one or two
taken every night will, in short time, per-
form an absolute cure. 1t is we'll to take
purgative at least once or twice a month as a
preventive of disease and as these Pills are
entirely vegetable, and are made with the
greatest care, we know them to be the safest
and most effective purgative ever introduced
to the public. They have been sold in this
country for over fifty years, and have in that
ime attained an unprecedented popularity.
