on one of the old fashioned sprees.
The quartette went to the house of
May Elder at SIG East First street. No
one was at home and the doors were
locked. But de Fourt' street gang
didn't care for that. Gregg had a key
in his pocket which he used to unlock
the back door. The gang went in and
took possession. They were ''mOnarchS

When my baby was two months
old she cried night and day, and
seemed to be in great pain. She had
a discharge from her ears, and the top
of her head broke out in scrofulous
eruptions. The doctor gave me some
thing to stop the discharge and ease
the pain, but his treatment did not
cure her and we were sorry to see
She Grew Worse
instead of better. The top of her
head broke out with scrofula. A
crust would form on her head and fall
off, taking the hair along with it,
and this continued for two or three
months, when something seemed to tell
me to try Hoods Sarsaparilla, and 1
did so, together with Hoods Pills
and Hoods Olive Ointment. Soon
The Discharge. Stopped
and the sores were rapidly healing.

she now has rosy cheeks and is all
