SHE RECOGNIZED HIM.
And Threw Him Bodily Out of the
 House.

For several days a man has been going about town selling q hair restor- atiVe which he guarantees to make hair grow. All the other kinds of hair restoratives. he says. are made merely to sell. He is very plausible orator. Mis- business is not really 70 sell the restorative. but to introduce 1t: after that it will sell itself. He tells those to whom he presents himself that he is going to dispose of only sev- enty-two bottles at the nominal price of g a bottle. After that there will be for some time no more on the Phoenix market. Some Nme in the future. though. an emporium will be opened in this city and will be conducted by four young ladies, who are coming from France expressly to dispense this hair restorer in this part of Arizona. It will then be sold at not less than sl5 n bottle.
 The advance agent must have opened his heart and sold q great many more than the original seventy-two bottles at the nominal price. A day or two ago a lady. whose husbands hair has begun to show signs of decay. availed herself of the opportunity to get in on the ground floor while the s2 door was open. The next day she was at the house of a lady who is a kind of q
 
 Of the country. While she was there the advance agent of the hair re- storative happened to call. When the doctor opened the door in response to his knock, she started in surprise. but quickly recovered, and said: Come in; come right in. I've been waiting for you for two years. I'll take more hair off your head in about a minute than your hair medicine can put on in ten years. Come right in And she dragged him in.
 Said he: Madam, l never saw you before.'
 oh. yes you have" she replicd: ''I bought bottle of that hair restora- tive of you in Denver two years ago; l paid you g. for it, and I found out that it's nothing but water and gum arabic. I've been laying for you eyer since"
 The advance agent protested that ha had never been in Denver and. beside. two years ago this hair medicine had never been thought of. The doctor roasted him until she had given full expression to her views of him, and then being a woman of more than average muscularity. seized him by the neck with one hand. by the slack of the trousers with the other and pitched him out into the front yard. The other lady followed him out. and told him that if heB Bdd not pay back the s2 she had paid him the day before. she would expose his fraud. She gave him her address and early yesterday morning he called and took up the bottle of hair restorative.

DOUBTFUL ESTATE
Qustion As to Whether Property Can
 Descend to the Dead.

The hearing of the applications for letters of administration on the estates of Joseph Hardy and his wife Jennie B. Hardy. took place in probate court yesterday. There were two petitioners in each case. In the estate of Joseph Hardy the applicants were Dr. l.. n. Dameron and Lloyd F. Christy. In the estate of Mrs. Hardy the petition CTS were l.. l.. Plank and R. F. Car nett. The hearing in the latter estate brought out q problem which has not yet been solved.
 In the course of the proceedings MT Plank was asked what the estate con sisted of. He replied that though ne was perhaps better acquainted with the affairs of Mrs. Hardy than any body else in Phoenix. he knew of no property of any kind in her name. When sEe left here to return to her former home in Iowa she took with her all her personal property of every character. It was thus disclosed that if she were now living in Iowa she could have no estate in this county, except her interest in her husbands estate. At the time of her death there had been no distribution of his estate to his heirs. so that his widow died seized of nothing. As a matter of fact. Joseph Hardy's estate has not yet been distributed. and when it shall be it will be distributed among the living heirs and not among those who are dead.
 According to this view of the mat ter Mrs. Hardy has no estate in Ari- zona. judgment will be rendered in the contests today.

CATARR

Catarrh has become such common disease that person entirely free from this disgusting complaint is seldom met with. It is customary to speak of Catarri, as nothing more serious than bad cold, a simple inflammation of the nose and throat. It is, in fact, complicated and very dangerous disease; if not at first, ii very soon becomes so.
 The blood is quickly contaminated by the foul secretions, and the poison through the general circulation is carried to all parts of the system.
 Salves, washes and sprays are unsatis- factory and disappointing, because they dc not reach the seat of the trouble. S. S. S. does. It Cleanses the blood of the poison and eliminates from the system all catar- rhal secretions, and thus cures thoroughly and permanently the worst cases.
