The Nutritive Element in Ale
 and Beer.


 There is a nutritious element in ale and beer, but it is small-there is the intoxicating effect, too. That is strong objection. Yet ale and beer are used, and benefit health at times. There is another liquid, the active principle of malt, JOHANN HoFF's MALT EXTRACT. One dozen bottles of it has the same nutritious and tonic effect as a large cask of ale or beer. That's an advantage. Another-it has not the intoxicat- ing effect of either. Ithelps digest and assimilate food, creates appe- tite, makes the weak strong and healthy.
 Be sure to obtain the genuine. See that signature "JoHANN HoFr is on neck label of every bottle. None other is "as good"

Court Notes. DUNNELL { SCRANTON ESTATE


 In the superior court to day Watrous & Buckland. representing Wilfrsd F. Nettle- ton, one of the preferred creditors of the estate of Bunnell & Scranton, will make a motion that he be allowed to withdraw his consent to the final judgment awarded last Friday and that the judgment be re- opened.
 The motion will be opposed by the coun- gel for Trustee Stoddsrd. Nettleton claims eome g. 400 more than he is allowed in the judgment. When the firm failed they held block of certain stock for Nettleton which was afterwards sold. Net tleton now claims the difference in the amount between what the stock was sold at and the highest price reached by that stock during that time.
 The preferred creditors who came under the judgment awarded last week, with the exception of Nettleton, have all been paid by Trustee Stoddard. The move by Net tleton mentioned above will probably not delay the final settlement of tho estate very much. As soon as Attorney E. P. Arvine, who is one of the commissioners of the estate, returns to the city, Trustee Stoddard will submit to the commission era few claims for them to pass upon, and then the general creditors will be paid off and the estate closed up.

This soap is today, as ever, the best, the purest, fam fly soap made.
