Wine" will do this and so marked d IL
action on the kidneys that you can act
ually feel it working on them within .
few minutes after taking dose.
1t gives them just the kind Of bath
they need and it heals up the sore. It
takes away the smarting, burning, pain
full, dragged-down, all-gone sensations, as
if by magic. 1t takes sediments of all
kinds out of the little hooks and corners
where they lodge and cause brick dust,
gravel, stone in bladder, inflammation,
etc. If you have any of these troubles,
or even if you have any of the slightest
symptoms of kidney disease, you ought
to protect yourself. 1t is easier to pre-
vent than to cure any disease. A bottle
of BLOOD Wine" costing fifty cents, will
often stave off a serious trouble, and spare
the patients life, to say nothing of saving
great expense and long suffering.
Read this expression of gratitude from
Worcester, Mass, woman, who has had
an excellent chance to make a careful
investigation of BLOOD Wine." Mrs. Ann
P. Stocking says: /.

SAME OLD STORY.
Continued from page l.,

asked what he had to saw Ar fret he
was questioned about the s9o ooo check
ne salu that ne had not entered it as
IL came III iate the day before but that
ne mad intended to enter it, yesterday
morning.
This did not deceive the directors for
a moment. Leander w. Fobes talked
to him earnestly for a time and told
him that the bank had full knowledge
of his guilt and that there was no use
in trying to cover it up any longer He
advised Leighton to tell the directors
the whole truth, which he then did.
Leighton said that he began to steal
from the bank six Years ago. He had
not stolen much at first and had sup
posed that he could pay it back a little
later. He mad kept getting in deeper
and deeper instead of having a chance
to recover himself and make his defal-
cation good. 1t has been during the
last is months that the most of the
money has been taken.
Leighton said that as he reckoned
it he had stolen $4,000. The directors
have no means of knowing as yet how
much the amount is, but they think
that he has told the truth, as far as he
knows it.
Asked what he had done with the
money, Leighton said that he had been
living beyond his means. He had also
lost money in stocks, trying to get
enough TO make his defalcation good
He said that he owns the equity in
about $4,000 worth of stocks and these
he would turn over to the bank. He
also has an interest of about $4,000 in
the Congress Square Fish Market,
which he would turn in. His bond is
for $4,000 with the Bonding Co. of
North America of Montreal.
This left about $4,000 due the bank
and Leighton thought he could get his
friends to advance the amount to him,
so that he could pay the bank the full
of his debt.
The men whom Leighton mentioned
were ones amply able to advance the
money, if they had been disposed. He
went to them during the day and stat
ed his situation to them, but no aid !
would they give him. They could not |
see any way in which he would be able |
to pay them, and they did not feel dis |
posed to make him a present of the |
money. Yesterday afternoon, he went |
nut to Old Orchard, where he has been !
living for some time. He expected to
get help there but could not do so. AS
he had promised he came back on the
O'Clock train, last night, and went to
-he house Of Director Walter G. Davis,
where the directors were assembled.
They had quietly told District Attor-
-l,A Ii
'equire his services and the officers of
he law We're ready. Marshal Saunders
md Deputy Smith made the arrest and
edged Leighton in Jail, where he re-
NAMED during the night.

was the last. l took it only after being
convinced that it was truly wondrous
medicine, and it cured me. 1 went to

Of success. Blood Wine will cure any
