A rather unusual case was heard before
Justice Jones in Tampa Monday. 1t was
that of the strange bet made on April
in the gambling house of Joe r. Symons,
when Joe S. Richardson placed s., O01. so on
monte. Claude Baker, who has been very
prolific in prosecutions gamblers of late,
told the story of the bet. Richardson, he
said, placed $1,000 bill wrapped in a 81
bill and held down by a fifty-cent piece,
on the turn of a card in the Symons monte
game. The bet won" Watchie, who had
charge Of the game, sent below for Sym
ons, who appeared, accompanied by Dep
uty Sheriff Lester. Symons gathered up
the money on the table, saying he needed
it for bank roll" Barker told Richard
son that he'd better get his money then,
or he'd never see it again. Symons told
Richardson that he would pay the bet, If
everything was satisfactory at II o'clock
the next day. The bet was never paid
Justice Jones dismissed the case against
Symons, on the ground first, that no
witness testified that the house was situ-
ated i'm Hillsbrouogh county and the state
of Florida, and second, that Joe Symons'
ownership or proprietorship of the place
had not yet been proven, which shows
that the gamblers have friends in Tampa
az well as elsewhere.

A PLAIN TALK TO
SENSIBLE PEOPLE

There are thousands of people affiicted
with chronic diseases who have not
known well day for years, although not
confined to their beds. They are able to
be up. but totally incapacitated for work
or pleasure.
i want TO convey a word of hope TO
such sufferers. You are not incurable, but
you will never be we'll unless you give
your condition some serious, intelligent
thought and reahze that health is the
most valuable possession to be had, and
that the best treatment is not TOO good
for you.
/ have been a specialist for 20 years,
which time has been devoted exclusively
to the treatment of chronic diseases. I
have treated more cases than any other
physician and my patients reside In every
state of the Union.
/ have treated thousands of cases, and
cured them promptly, which had been un-
der various kinds OF treatment for years.
Every case which comes to me / find re-
Quires some special attention. which no
ready-made medicine can reach, and this
explains why cure cannot be expected
from patent medicines. There is some
thing In medical science which can reach
your condition, and cure you. but special
treatment must be prepared for your own
individual case.
Ny long experience and acknowledged
skill warrants me in saying that can
cure 9S per cent. OF all cases undertaken
/ study carefully every case. and treat It
on its individual merits. use no ready
made medicines, and warn you against
the folly OF experimenting with so-called
free" samples, many of which are moth
ing more than poisonous and injurious
stimulants.
II you are afflicted with any chronic
disease such as Bladder and Kidney Dis
eases, Blood Poison. rheumatism. Ca
tarrh Varicocele. Structure. Lost Man
hood, etc, you owe Il TO yourself TO take
only the best treatment which is always
the cheapest in the end.
l can promise you the most expert
treatment obtainable anywhere and can
give satisfactory references both as to my
professional skill and financial standing.
