Not long ago however, two St. Paul women
were caught smuggling diamonds across the line
at Windsor. The stake is worth the risk in the
eyes of these women, because the duty on dia-

the United States it is sixty per cent. Once the
smuggler gets the into the States her profits

AUTOMOBILES WILL COMPETE
Will Race With Steam Engines to

The Union Pacific will use automo-

building branches to the Shoshone In

in July. The service will be from
Rawlings to the reservation, a dis
tance of 100 miles. 1t is expected that
the machines will leave Rawlings in
the morning and will reach the land
that will be thrown open in the after
noon.
1t is thought that many of the home-
seekers will take advantage of the auto
service, both on account of the novelty
and the cheap rate that will be put
on. This is the first time that gaso-

with steam lines and the outcome is

The roads that have been using this

were interviewed but all were able to

One elderly gentleman was found

was found to contain salad greens.
After two hours work the detectives
returned to the Central police station.
tired and baffed over the mystery of
the missing lunch basket.
The Official Facts
According to the report on file in the
police station, the basket was laid ON
table near the sparkling waters of the
lake. Beside it rested a bundle of baby
clothes, in case the little two-year-old
fell into the water and required a
change of attire.
While the party disported themselves
amid the sylvan retreats. a tall, dark
man with a slouch hat, passed by His
sensitive nostrils inhaled the grateful
odor Of sandwiches doughnuts, pie,
cake and other tempting Viands.
Giving furtive look around to see
that he was unObserVed,, the robber
grasped the basket firmly i'm one hand
and with the other snatched the bundle
of infants wearing apparel.
No one seemed to know precisely at
what time the robbery took place. But
when the party returned to enjoy their
tempting lunch, with appetites sharp
ened with outdoor life, there was no
lunch.
Several of the children b gan to wall
fretfully and everyone was i'm despair.
Finally brilliant thought struck one
of the party.

why not telephone to the police?"
The suggestion was acted on and an
urgent call was sent to the police sta

Two of the best sleuths in the de-

a fine lunch Beside him was a basket
and bundle of clothes. The boy drew
near but the man scrowled and the

The function strengthening and tissue
building plan of treating chronic, linger-
ing and obstinate cases Of disease as pur-
sued by DR.. Pierce, is following after
Natures plan of restoring health.
He uses natural remedies, that is
extracts from native medicinal roots,
prepared by processes wrought out by
the expenditure of much time and
money, without the use of alcohol, and
by skillful combination in just the right
proportions.
Used as ingredients of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, Black Cherry
bark, Queens root, Golden Seal root,
Bloodroot and Stone root specially exert
their influence in cases Of lung, bronchial
and throat troubles, and this TDIsoov-
cry" is, therefore, a sovereign remedy
for bronchitis, laryngltis, chronic coughs,
catarrh and kindred ailments.
The above native roots also have the
strongest possible endorsement from the
leading medical writers, of all the several
schools OF practice, for the cure not only
OF the diseases named above but also for
Indigestion, torpor of liver, or bilious
ness, obstinate constipation, kidney and
bladder troubles and catarrh, no matter
where located.
You don't have TO take DIR. Pierce's
say-so alone as TO this; what he claims
for his discovery is backed up by the
writings OF the most eminent men in the
medical profession. A request by postal
card or letter, addressed to DR.. r. v.
