BOLD HORSE THIEVES
Continue TO Ply Their Nefarious Voca-
tion-The Police Force too Small
TO Cope With Them.

J. e. Klotz called at the police station
Sunday morning and reported that his
hcrss and plano box buggy had been
taken from in front Of an East Tusoara-
was street re tsursnt. The horse was a
valuable four-year-old.
A newly painted carriage was stolen
from the Dexter Wagon Co. Saturday
night. The matter was reported to the
police, who at once placed an extra lock
on the patrol house. These midnight
thefts of horses and buggies are beoom-
ing entirely too numerous. II the bold
robbers once set their desires upon the
fat beauties in the stables of the fire and
police departments, the city may suffer a
serious loss With police force totally
inadequate to the demands Of city of
Canton's size, it behoovss each citizen
to take every precaution TO thwart the
efforts Of the gang of burlgars and foot-
pads who seem TO carry on their nefarious
business when ana where they please.

Dyspepsia

The explanation is simple. It is found in
that impure blood which is contin-
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead OF the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
do not cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds
the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the
true remedy for all nervous troubles.
