Merit
intrinsic value OF EHC

cure. Hoods Sarssparilla possesses actual
and unequalled curative power and there
fore it has true merit. When you buy
Hoods Sarsaparilla, and take it according
to directions, to purify your blood, or
cure any OF the many blood diseases, you
are morally certain to receive benefit.
The power to cure is there. You are not
trying an experiment. 1t will make your
blood pure, rich and nourishing, and thus
drive out the germs Of disease, strengthen
the nerves and build up the whole system.

Mr. wintermoyer Robbed Again.

The clothing store of Mr.. Jacob Win
termoyer, next door to the REGISTER
building, was burglarized again last
Saturday night-ths sixth time during
the past few years. The robbers en-
tered through the back window. They
forced open the iron-bOund shutter
and smashed the glass out Of the WIN
dow. Then they lit candle and
helped themselves to suits, overcoats'
underwear, neckties, gloves, jewelry,
etc. They carried off a quantity of
goods, leaving a pile of overcoats just
outside the window, and dropping a
glove or necktie here and there on
their way through the alley and along
the railroad track. Mr.. Joseph Ten
nant, a section hand on the railroad
and a son-in-law of Mr.. Wintermoyer,
found a number of articles along the
railroad, and this was the first intima-
ton of the robbery. He notified Mr..
Wintermoyer, who went down to the
store and found that he had beed rob-
bed again. The thieves went to va
cant house about a half mile from town,
on Colonel Morgan's place, and there
they changed clothes. They left be-
hind them four suits of old garments,
showing that there were at least that
many persons in the gang. They Of
course wore as many new suits, and
may have carried off still more. On
Sunday the scene Of their operations
was found, and Mr.. Wintermoyer re-
covered a quantity of his goods. a
watch was set at night, with the ex-
pectation that the thieves ightreturn,
but nothing was seen of them.
