payable, on the back, and then added his own
name, getting some individual or friend to cash
the check" johnson had his pocketful of
racing tickets when he was arrested. He con-
fessed his guilt. and said he lost the money on
the races. He had been tempted to 20 to q

"From an experience OF over thirty
years in the sale of proprietary medi-

to try Ayers Cherry Pectoral, and l can
truly say, with the most happy results.
After taking few doses she seemed to
