owner of the Fifth Avenue and the
whitley buildings, for evidence show
ing that the present proprietors of the
Fifth Avenue. Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Mechtley. were running a joint. Last
summer an injunction was served on
Whitley as the owner of the Fifth
Avenue hotel, to force him to stop the
sale Of liquors, which was alleged to
be going on in the building. The suit
was lost.
At the request of some of the local
temperance workers a similar injunc-
ton was served on Whitley this week
by the county attorney. and Whitley
came back with a signed statement in
which he claimed that the county at
torney had admitted to him that he
had no personal knowledge of the al
legations in the notice. and that he
had issued the order because he
had been so requested. In con-
clusion Whitley offered a reward for
evidence which would lead to the con-
viction Of the Mechtleys.

he MEANS SCOTS

Your doctor says you must
take cod liver oil. Probably he
means SCOTS Emulsion be-
cause you cannot take the
clear oil; no one can take the
clear oil who needs cod liver

that and doubtless means
SCOTS Emulsion Of cod liver

because it is emulsihed and
prepared SO that it can be

nerves and thus nourishes life.
Peruna is in great favor among
women, especially those who have

This is especially. true in the spring
