CREATE. E.1 BOY STORE

The Boy needs as much attention
in the matter of Clothes as any,
one. He likes to have his Clothes
look we'll and fit well. A good
health boy can give his clothes
some pretty hard knocks some-
times; he does not take time
always to think how hard he uses
them. Of course you know all
about that, but what we want to
impress upon you,is the fact that
we had in mind when buying
these Clothes, just what sort of
treatment the boy would give
them. We have gathered to-

MISSING SHEHAN WILLS
FOUND BY A CLERK
Discovered in Wrong File Where Some
one Placed Them PurpOsely, or by
Accident-Interest in Matter.

The three wills of George A. Shehan,
which disappeared from the files OF the
Office OF the Register of Wills in July
last. have been found The mystery
surrounding the disappearance and their
return 10 the files of the Office IS, how

lister Of Willis Dent said. that the long
missing papers We're discovered among
other papers by a clerk at work on the
index system.
The estate left by George a. Shehan
is in litigation in the probate branch

July some person unknown to the clerks
IN the Office of the Register entered
and asked permission to read the wills.
The papers We're handed to him by
Deputy Register Dr. Griffin. The
stranger took seat in the Office and be-
gan TO read the papers.
The following day one OF the attor-
neys connected with the litigation called
for the wills. and when search was
made for them they could not be found

the meantime Register Dent caused
every Jacket in the Office TO be search

papers. The search was fruitless.
FOR the past few months the matter
has dropped out of sight and to all ap-

mind that it IS best to follow the maxim
vim peace prepare for war by keep
ing an army and navy in activity-daiiv
practice with firearms and moderu. can
no1-constaut drills and mock battles.
What will be the effect of a war between
japan and Russia nobody can foresee. but
our sympathies are all with that brave
little people-the Japanese-and if the
struggle comes on we hope it will be
another case of David vanquishinp
Goliath.
What concerns our American people
more than any fear of other nations Of
the earth is :he dread of invasion from
infectious diseases. It means fight or
die for all ct US. Unless we have that
health which means pure blood for the
system and an active liver to guard the
weak points, we cannot resist the at
tacks of the germs of consumption,
typhoid, pneumonia, grip, nalarial fe-
vers and many other diseases of germ
origin.
If there Is a scrofulous condition of the
system, catarrh or bronchitis, the germs
are sure to attack the weak points. Once
they have foOthOld in the breach, they
live and grow in strength and numbers,
and at the same time make inroads into
neighboring parts - constantly increas-
ing their domain. This is the battle
ground for the individual. Thus it is
that III the beginning consumption is
not such serious matter to the indi-
vidual
It has been held that CONSUMPTION is
hereditary and the fact that one member
of family had died with consumption
was considered sure sign that others Of
that family could not escape it. This is
partly true and partly untrue. A man
with weak lungs is likely to transmit
that weakness to his children. But there
IS no reason IN the world why the weak
ness should be allowed to develop.
There Is no reason why the lungs should
remain weak. Weak lungs predispose
a child TO consumption. They provide
a place for germs to settle. That IS all
that is necessary. Once let the germs
of disease gain a foot-hold, and they
increase with deadly rapidity. Pretty
soon the blood is full of them, and so
loses its healthfulness and its strength
giving qualities. If the weakness IS in
some other organ, the disease will show
itself in that organ. The germs will get
into the blood, just the same, aud the
body will begin TO lose strength. We
speak particularly of consumption be-
cause 1t is most common h because it
causes more; than one-sixth OF all the
deaths IN the world.
