Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any
season, but perhaps more generally needed in
the spring when the languid exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need of a tonic and altera-

has often aYerted long and perhaps fatal

Imposed Upon The Charitable.

Relative to the CASTOR case, in which an
appeal for aid was made yesterday DIR. j. S.
Callen stated to-day that the head of the
family, Archibald CASTOR, had already grossly
imposed upon the charitable people of the
town and had sought relief under the name
of Smith. Among those upon whom CASTOR
imposed were DIR. Bordner and Rev. William
Powick formerly pastor of the M. L. church
of town. According to the statements the
"growlcr" seems to be the chief factor in
the family's hardships and neither the
husband, or the wife, try to reform or
improve their condition when assisted. As
to the statement by CASTOR that he drew but
S67l for his last pay in the mines and had 50
rent to pay out of it, attention is called to
the fact that the rent was not paid The
neighbors of the family say it is case in
which sympathy and assistance is not
warranted. They charge that the woman
was out drinking this morning. They also
demand that the Board Of Health give
attention to the house. Chief Tosh is still
making an effort to have the remains of the
child buried He has communicated with
Poor Director Middleton and if that official
does not take action to-day, Rev. Heebner,
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church,
has promised to take steps to have a burial
made
