Contagious

There is no poison so highly contagious,
so deceptive and SO destructive. Don't be
too sure you are cured because all external
signs of the disease nave disappeared, and
the doctor says you are we'll. Many per-
sons have been dosed with Mercury and
Potash for months or years, and pro-
nounced cured-to realize when too late

THE SUNNY SOUTH SPECIAL OFFER.

ONLY TEN CENTS UNTIL JANUARY 1. 1902.
The Sunny South of Atlanta, Ga.
is making a special short time offer
of its splendid paper from now un-
til January 1, for only 10c. The
full subscription price for one
year is only SOC and for literary
weekly of it's character the price is
remarkably cheap. The short
time price quoted, 1oc until New
Years, is largely in the nature of
an an introduction Of the paper to
its larger Southern audience that
it deserves.
The paper, as it's title-head states
is devoted to literature, romance,
fashions and fiction. 1t is really
devoted to Southern writer's and
Southern readers and it is their
own story paper. 1t contains each
week short stories, sketches, Incl
dents of war and of peace, anec-
dotes at home and afeld, poems,
ideas, fashions, columns of sun
shine, letters of travel, hints for
home-keepers and indeed every
thing of interest to young and old.
There are at present running two
splendid serial stories and at least
as many will be kept constantly
before its readers.
This paper for over a quarter OF
a century has been more or less
active in the Southern field, but it
has not adequately occupied the
whole space to which it was allot
ted. Some six months ago, it pass
ed under a new management and
the continued improvement in it
has become more apparent with
each issue. At present its form is
ideal as family story paper and
the offer to send it until January |
for only 1Oc is one Of the most re-
markable.
The Sunny South has clubbing
rate with the Weekly Constitution
whereby both papers will be sent
one year for only 1926. This will
furnish any family with two good
papers each week at practically
the cost of one. The Weekly Con
stitution on Monday gives the
cream of the week closing with its
publication, and the Sunny South
on Saturday gives splendid service
in it's line.

cowardice he showed, and it was ever
a sore subject with him: l am conh-

would have taken to his heels. How
ever, 1 did not. 1 dared not go nearer
him. As he seemed at loss what to
say to me, finally accosted him again.

needn't run away from me. I'm no

And Four Philadelphia Men Are
Held on Charges of Conspiracy
and Kidnapping, the Penalty
for Which Is Life Imprisonment
BUT ONE OF THE
PRISONERS TESTIFIES
He Relates How the Plan to Cap
ture Mrs. Goodrich Was Laid
but Claims He Was Not a
Party to the Robbery Which
Followed

Philadelphia, Oct Enlarged with
abducting and robbing Mabel Good
rich, the proprietress of a disreputable
establishment, Howard K. Sloan, Henry
r. Wallace, ID. Knight Finlay and Os-
car S. Dunlap, were brought before a
magistrate today and committed with
out bail for a further hearing next
Monday. Sloan is an unemployed
newspaper reporter, Wallace was a so
ciety reporter for the Press, Finlay
was employed in the business depart
ment of the North American as a
stenographer, and Dunlay is a barber.
The quartet were arrested Saturday on
warrants sworn out by Mrs. Goodrich.
The woman was the first. witness
against the prisoners, and identified
each of them. She then told the re-
markable story of her abduction, con-
finement and robbery. She concluded
her testimony by stating she was
robbed of her jewelry valued at $4,000
and cash amounting to $40 and was
forced to sign checks for $500. After
a check for S155 had been cashed she
was released, she said.
Deceive Donagy related the story
of the arrest of the prisoners and
stated that all had confessed. Dunlap,
he said, told him that his purpose was
to assist Sloan in placing Mrs. Good
rlch in the hands OF the law ana order
society. He had not been told of the
intention to rob the woman.
Wallace was the only prisoner to tes
tify. He said Sloan had suggested to
him the plan by which Mrs. Goodrich
was to be abducted in the interest of
the law and order society which organ
ization would reward them for their
services. Later, Wallace, said, Sloan
made a proposition to rob the woman.
Wallace refused to become a party to
the robbery he declared. and said fur
Their that he did not see Sloan from that
time until the time Of his arrest.
In answer to questions Wallace said
the suggestion to capture Mrs Good
rich for the law and order society was
made by another newspaper man. The
latter had not been arrested.
Council for Mrs Goodrich asked that
the prisoners be held on charges Of
conspiracy. highway robbery, assault
and battery, and kidnapping. This
was done excepting the case Of Wal
lace. who was held for conspiracy and
kidnapping. the penalty for which is
life Imprisonment.
