When Walking Across Carpet


There is probably no one better known In
Sedalia, especially among the members OF
the First Baptist Church, than Mrs. Mollie
e. Roe. the wife of Mr.. Roe, the nursery
man, and nothing is better known among

past four years she has been q physical
| wreck from locomOtor ataxta, in It's seVeresl
| form. That she has recently recovered her
health, strength and normal locomotion has
| been made apparent by her being seen ire
Quently on the streets and in church, ana
| this fact induced a representative OF lhe
CAPITAL to call on Mrs. Roe TO inquire lhto

corner of Ohio Avenue and Twenty-tourth

friends when my troubles would end In the
