Immediately after the arrest Wood was
given a preliminary hearing In the Ponce

the middle Of September he placed in the
hands of Mr.. Wood the sum OF Sl.yD.

He expected to be advised. of course, OF
whatever transactions were made, ac-
cording to custom among brokers.
NOT NOTIFIED.
MI Cverbey alleges that Mr.. WOOD.
without notifying him, invested the sum
Of $1,000, and soon afterwards called TOR
a margin of $500 additional. Having
confidence in the broker. he forwarded
the supplemental sum to protect his hold

that the two sums-sl .500-had been wiped
out by slumps in the market. and that he

NOT DUE TO CLIMATE.
Catnrrh is Found Everywhere

Catarrh is at home anywhere and every
where. While more common in cold
changeable climates, it is by no means
confined to them, but is prevalent in every
State and Territory in the Union.
The common definition of catarrh is
chronic cold in the head. which if long
neglected often destroys the sense of smell
and hearing; but there are many other
forms of the disease, even more obsti-
nate and dangerous.
Catarrh of the throat and bronchial
tubes. as we'll as catarrh of the stomach
and liver, are almost as common as nasal
catarrh, and generally more difficult to
cure.
Catarrh is undoubtedly blood disease,
and can only be successfully eradicated
by an internal treatment. Sprays, wash
es and powders are useless as far as
reaching the real seat Of the disease is
concerned.
Dr. McIverney advises catarrla sufferers
to use a new preparation. sold by drug

cause actual analysis has shown these
tablets to contain certain ant-septic quail

freely as required as we'll for children
as for adults.
An attorney and public speaker, who
had been catarrh sufferer for years.
says:

would settle in my head and throat and
hang on all winter long. and every winter
it seemed to get little worse. was
