MAKE NO MISTAKE.
There Is No Reason Why You Should II You
Follow the Advice Given Below.

indigestion Is the curse of this coun-
try" says a New York medical journal in
recent editorial. Both men and wo-
men suffer from this distressing COM
plant and II causes tremendous
amount of misery"
This is all very true but there IL no rea =
son why any man or woman should suf-
fer from indigestion when there Is a ready
means OF preventing IL. Thousands OF
people have discovered sure cure and
some of them have given the public the
benefit of their experience.
Mrs. II. Tarlton, 345 Park avenue, Gin
cinnati, says: II had dyspepsia for fif-
teen years and was entirely cured by taxi
ing Duny's pure malt whiskey. l had
tried almost everything and know that
this whiskey cures where all others fail"
W. II. Anderson, 6l7 w. Indiana street,
Chicago, says: 81 used Duffy's pure malt
whiskey for indigestion and dyspepsia.
My stomach is now In better condition
than II has been for years past"
These are only two cases selected from
thousands of others but they are sufI-
cient to prove that dyspepsia and indi-
gestion can be always avoided by the
regular use of Duffy's pure malt. 1t will
not only keep the digestive organs in per-
feet condition but give tone and energy
to every part of the body. Make sure
that you get no inferior imitation.

WANTED TO WHIP SEVEN MEN.
Encounter with Two Landed Bonsal
in the Panitentiary.

Doylestown, Pa. Jan. 11.-William
Bonsall was sentenced today to two
years and three months in the Eastern
Penitentiary for an assault that was
the outcome of his estimate of his
pugllistic qualities. Bonsall claimed to
have been a prize-fighter at Pittsburg,
and said Kid Mccoy was the only
man who had ever hit him.
He came to Doylestown three weeks
ago, and after fortifying himself with
liberal potations at a drinking bar
offered to whip any seven men who
cared to stand up before him. Bonsall
wound up by resisting Detective w. II.
Smith, whose eye he cut open, and
assaulting Jailer Michener. 1t was for
this offense that he was sent to the
penitentiary.

Reading, Pa, Jan. H. yrhe police to-
day arrested three brothers, Joseph
Lewis and George Bright, for the hold
up, last evening, at the home of Mrs.
William Madeira, who conducts a small

Mrs. Madeira while Joe tied her to the
chair. George, he said, became fright
ened and fled before the robbery was
perpetrated. The masks had bsen pur-
chased several days before. After the
robbery they We're destroyed.
The brothers were committed to

THINK THEY HAVE
EDWARD B. WALTON
PottsyiIIe Police Capture an Insane
Wanderer.
SUPPOSED TO BE THE MISSING CLERK
The Prisoner Has a Months Growth
of Beard on His Face and Answers
the Description of Walton, Who
Disappeared November 30.

Pottsville, Pa, Jan. 11.--Chief of Po-
lice Davies, of this city, today COM
municated with Chief of Police Linden
of Philadelphia, in reference to man
picked up by the Pottsville police ana
now confined in the insane department
of Schuylkill county almshouse, VINO
is supposed to be Edward B. walton,
q clerk in the main office of the Penn
sylvana railroad. who disappeared on
the night of Nov. 90 last The man was
found wandering around the city in an
aimlees sort of manner, and was un-
doubtedly demented. He conversed IN
a rambling manner and gave his name
both as Walton of Philadelphia, and
Albert Leek. At various times he said
he lived I'm New York Word was re-
ceived from Philadelphia later in the
day that relative OF Walton's is on
his way here to pass upon the identity
Of thz confined mar. The latter had
months growth of beard on his face,
and is five feet, six inches in height.
His hair, eyes and the dmple in his
chin are said to correspond with the
dcScr, ytiun of Walton az sent out by
the Philadelphia police at the time of
of his disappearance. A passenger on
Philadelphia and Reading train,
which arrived here today, and VINO
says he knows Walton, asserts that the
confined man is not walton.
A POPULAR MAN.
Walton was the chief clerk to Vice
President Pugh. of the Pennsylvania
company, and was one W the most pop
ular men in the office. He lived at Bala
with his wife and one child. The last
seen of him after he left the office on
the night he disappeared was when he
left the Philadelphia Bourse. after din
ing with several friends. This was
about 10 O'Clock at night, and from that
time all trace of him was lost until
the police of this city picked up the
man who so closely answers his de-
sCription The only inacCuracy in the
description of the missing man and
the man now held here is in the mat
ter of height. Walton is said to be
five feet eight inches in height. At
the time of Walton's disappearance he
had about $3.50 in his pocket. and this
led to the suspicion that he might have
been the victim of foul play. Chief
Davies expects the relative of Walton'S
to arrive tonight, and in the mean
time is endeavoring to get from the
confined man a more lucid explanation
as to his identity.

doctor in whom you have
confidence.

ty-hve years.
