of having accepted deposits at the
bank when he knew the institution
was insolvent. The arrest was made
in the Office of Chief of Police Collins,
where Stensland had gone to confer
with the head of the police department
The warrant was sworn out by ]. P.

Straub contends that the vice presi

officers of the bank not to receive any
deposits, but that this had not been
done and his money was taken in viola
tion of the banking laws.
Later in the day Jacob J. Kern, for
mer states attorney, signed bonds fol-
$4,000 for the release of Theodore

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. It is a feeling common
20 the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount Of
happiness We are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend TO make us more or
less miserable III health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally TO be at
tributed TO hiIiousnesg. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause OF
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate OF pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind.
like a vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
" be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence OF the
people BY bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged TO win ii by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves its
reputation is conceded. It is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts OF Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such a record Of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend 10 undermine
the foundations OF strength and
vigour. It's use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor
Reddy, Of Canada, says: 81 have
much pleasure in stating that l
have used it in cases Of debility
and found it TO be a very valu-
able remedy as well SIS pleasing
