Pretty mouths should have pretty teeth in
them, but 1t Is not unusual to see between
rosy lips, teeth discolored and decaying
through neglect. This disfguring defect
should be repaired without delay, by using
fragrant Sozodont, which removes every par
tIcle of tartar from the teeth and renders
them snowy white. This admirable aid to
beauty Is perfectly harmless and exhales a
most delightful aroma, and Is In every re-
spect preferable to the ordinary tooth
pastes and powders. Try 1t and see for your
self. may16ml
Last Thursday, Messrs. Walker d Phetz-
ing received the following telegram: "Stil-
son, Kansas. I Am here. J. Il. Lohman." Our
readers will remember that several weeks ago
the county press made inquiry as to the pres
emit whereabouts of J. Il. Lehman, who for a
short time was employed in one Of the coal
mines near the city, but left suddenly with
out informing anyone of his intentions.
Lehman was we'll educated, could converse
iuently in several languages and was of a
wealthy family, but becoming disslpated his
father gave him a large sum of money three
years ago, upon the condition that he should
go to the United States, never. return, nor
even let his family hear from him. Lehman
spent his money in New York in less than
six months, and gradually drifted out west.
The family, however, kept track of him
through the consuls until he quit work and
left this city. Since then the father died and
young Lohman's presence is required in Ger
many, In order to settle the estate.
