Y FROM TEE A
Mr.. JOHN ARrus RELATES A RE.
MARKAELE STORY.

He Says He Truly Believes II he Had
Not Hogan the Use OF Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills at tho Time He Did He
Would Now lie In His Grave.
From Bulletin.J Journal, Independence. Iotce.
John Artus is one Of the Oldest and
most respected citizens of Independence.
Iowa. He is q large contractor and was
tor years Superintendent of the masons
and plasterers during the building of the
Iowa Hospital for the Insane, often hav.
ing as many as 800 men under his cnlrge.
Said Mr.: Artus to a reporter recently:
II had for years been troubled with
rheumatism, often having it so severely
that I was compelled to Keep my bed for
weeks at q time. l sought relief from
home physicians, but in vain. tried all
remedies which l could get, took the ad-
vice and remedies advanced by my
friends. but all to no avail. At times !
suffered go severely that I was all but
dead. Had often heard that DIR. Will
Jams Pink Pills were an almost. intal-
lible cure for my ailment, but having
tried SO many advertised cures and never
given up hope of relief, when at the sug-
gestion of a friend 1 began on Pink Pills.
Thank God l did SO; for from the very
first dose l found relief. I continued to
to take them until in a short time 1 lost
all signs of rheumatism. It has been
over three years now since last l TOOK
any of the pills and to this day no sign
of my old malady has returned. AS true
as I believe that there is a God in heaven,
SO true do I believe that had l not taken
DIR. Williams Pink pills ut the time /
did that L to-day would be in my grave.
I give this testimony willingly and freely,
hoping it will shed light to some other
poor sufferer of that awful disease.
(Signed) John ARTUS."

ink while writing may be avoided by
inserting two pens of the same size in
the penholder, the inner one to project
a little. The writing is done with the
inner pen. The ink collected between
the two pens is sufficient to last
through several pages of manuscript,
and vet it will not flow more freely
than is desirable. The pens must be
cleaned frequently in order to get the
best results.

1t was ut one Of those places where
you can get a good meal for fifteen

to an unusually low ebb, ten cents will

1t is n of the regulations of the cv-
tablishment to charge up its patrons on
squares of heavy paper that vary in
color on different days, red, yellow, and
green being the preferred tints.
About Il week ago a young man went
in and ordered a ten-cent lunch. AS
soon as 1T was brought in the waiter
gave him a check.
The young man fingered long over his
cheap repast and noon paper. and at
last the waiter evidently forgot that his
gave him another check.
The young man thought he saw the
hand of Providence in the double deal,
SO he cautiously slipped II into his
inside pocket to use on n future occa-
sion and gave the other to the cashier.
That day the checks were red.
1t was a week later when the young
mans hunger mounted 70 such a pitch
that nothing but II meal Of generous
proportions would satisfy him. Re
membering the ten-ccnt check that was
hidden away in his pocket, he had no
h%esitsnoy in ordering whatever he
wished.
The value of his lunch was IN even
dollar, but when he got to the cashiers
desk he laid down his tcn-cent check.
Instead of accepting the dime and pass
ing him along to make o for the
next customer the cashier looked Mt the
young man suspiciously and detained
him a moment.
.'Where did you get this check?' he
! asked.
The young mans face took on an eN
! preston of surprised innocence.

CLARk,s MARBLE HEART.
Tale of a Desperate Hold-Up Moved
Him Not.

II the story told by Louis Boren is true
the saloon of Oscar West, Ia East Seventh
street, was the scene of a daring hold-up
Tuesday evening. Barren, who was hired by
West last Tuesday to tend bar for few days,
claims to have been made to stand and de-
liver, at the point of revolver, by two men,
shortly after 9 o'clock, on the evening in
question. The cash register in the saloon was
robbed of SCI .95, and Boren says that the
robbers also took So from his pocket, though
81 in bills, in plain sight in the cash register,
were left by the robbers.
Boren's story Of the hold-up, as told HIS en-
ployer, was to the effect that while he was
alone about 80, two men came into the saloon
and ordered drink. AS he placed the glasses
on the bar, Boren says, one of the men cover
ed him with revolver, while the other jump
ed over the bar and went through the register.
After rifing the register the bartender related
that the men compelled him to precede them
to the back door, through which they passed
and disappeared in the direction of Eighth
street. Mr.. West reported the affair to Chief
Clark, who sent for Boren, and after subject
ing him to rigid examination, dismissed him
with the significant admonition to return Mr.
West his 81 before the day was over or take
the consequences Boren was visibly discon-
certed by his interview with Chief Clark, and
left his office in a hurry, without a word of
subsequent explanation. Chief Clark had no
hesitancy In giving 1t as his opinion that
Boren helped himself to the money in the
register, and invented the hold-up story as
blind.
Only Mr.. Vests disinclination to prosecute
Boren saved him from being locked I'D yes
