It is an invigorating tonic and is specif-

man. Careless, easy going doctors fire.

liver or kidney troubles, when the real
sickness is in the organs distinctly fem

Alva Review: Wayne Mckinney, of
D county, an old time friend of Sheriff
McGrath stopped over in Alva couple
of days last week on his way home from
Kansas. He and Clay, in days gone by,
were old time cowboys together. :.
Cook Snoddy has returned from a few
weeks prospecting tour among the gold
fields of Colorado. He advises laborers
to stay away from there for the present
as hundreds of idle men are now laying
around the camps. For number of
months Sheriff McGrath and his under
sheriff have kept a hot trail upon the
movements of Lew Beiberstein and
Billy White, and last Thursday their
efforts were fully rewarded by placing
the two under arrest upon the charge
of horse stealing. Billy White has
turned states evidence aud made a
written confession, revealing facts of a
startling nature. Among other acts of
lawlessness and thefts committed by
these boys was that of holding up Char
lie Doughty a few weeks ago. The
statement of White details every move
that he and Beiberstein have made
since becoming associated together.
Biebersteln was arraigned before Judge
Ross Saturday and plead mot guilty.
His bond was fixed at $500 to appear
for preliminary examination today and
failing to give which he was committed
to Jail. Under sheriff Hadwiger and
Billy White left for the State Friday te
recover the stolen horse.

Monday night thieves entered VIM.
Bruington's store and stole goods worth
about 500. They gained admittance
to the store by removing a pane of glass
from window in the rear part of the
building. The goods taken consisted
principally of pocket knives, razors,
watch chains and charms, necklaces and
other jewelry. Four hundred pennies
that had bee:. left in the money drawer
were also stolen. Although Mr.. Bru-
ington has offered a reward of S25 for
the capture of the thieves, no trace Of
them has as yet been discovered. The
fact that they selected goods of consid-
cradle value, and such as might be cas-
lily hidden, indicates that they we're ex-
pert robbers, and it is to be hoped that
they will be caught and suitably pun
isbed.-Attica Independent.
