The cures being made by this magic

Mrs. B. A. Hubbard Plum Point, Tenn,

Today she can see perfectly out of both

For the first time she rests since
the hour of her birth.
Her forbears for ages were folk
known to fame,
And thus in her day she was
Daughter" and. Dame
She belonged to twelve clubs,
and read Horace at sight,
And served on the school board
with naughty delight.
At the meetings of mothers
she always appeared
TO tell them how little ones
all should be- reared.
She golfed and she kodaked
and automobiled,
And whenever it pleased her
she turned in and wheeled.
The luncbeons and teas and
functions galore
Which kept her all smiles made
her husband sore.
When she'd nowhere to go. as
she found one day,
She fell to the floor and died
where she lay,
And now lies her head on the
lap of earth,
For the first time she rests since
the hour of her birth.

An application was made by Ernest

TAKE CASH AND JEWELRY
Louis KOenig of 1901 Turk
Street and DOminick Moran,
1926 Howard Street, Victims

Three men robbed six others in the
bar of the grocery store of Louis Koe-
mig. at the corner of Pierce and Turk
streets, at 11:2O o'clock last night and
secured about $50 in cash, a gold
watch and two revolvers. The robbers
were in the saloon but five minutes
and did not get all of the money car
ried by the frequenters of the place, be-
ing frightened away by a passing car
before they had completed their search.
Five men, Conrad Richter, a jeWeler
Of 13 Willow avenue; Ameil SLAMMED,
Paul Biel, W. Z. Stroepzel and a man
known as Sam, with the proprietor,
Louis Koenig, were sitting in the bar
room, when the robbers entered. One
of the crooks came in by the Pierce
street side door and another by the
Turk-street front entrance, while the
third stood guard on the sidewalk, just
outside Of the place.
The robbers wore white handker-
chiefs over their faces and went about
the work of securing the valuables of
the inmates Of the barroom in an anna
teurish fashion. Each of them leveling
huge revolver at the heads of the
crowd commanded them to throw up
their hands and face the wall. While
one went through the pockets of the
victims the other passed behind the bar
and opening theregister extracted from
it about s. in coin, a gold watch and
chain valued at SIS belonging to- the
proprietor and two loaded revolvers.
The robbers got little coin from the
men lined against the wall. The search
they made Of the pockets was done
hurriedly, the crooks being in a hurry
and apparently nervous through fear
of detection. A passing car Changed its
bell and the man on guard on the side
walk called to his companions to make
their exit. Backing hurriedly out of the
saloon, the thieves commanded the
crowd to keep silence, threatening to
come back and riddle the whole bunch
with lead if they attempted to make an
outcry.
Several hundred dollars was over
looked by the holdup men in their
haste. They neglected to go through
the vest pockets of the victims, where
most of them carried their money.
Twelve dollars was taken from the
trousers of Koenig, Richter yielded up
$4 so, SLAMMED contributed 81. Biels
clothes were relieved of all he had, Sc.
Sans pockets were turned inside out,
but failed to produce any of the filthy
lucre."
The men who were held up say that
the robbers were about the age of IS.
They did not see the man on the side
walk. but describe the two that did
the Job as being the proverbial tall and
short ones. Koenig claims that the rob-
bers acted very nervous and constantly
listened for signs Of any one approach
ing.
The police were notified and arrived
on the scene about two hours after the
deed was committed. The robbers ran
down Turk street and were lost in the
darkness before any Of the unfortunate
contributors to the crooks relief fund
could give the alarm.
