Proof of Merit,

The proof of the merits of a plaster
is the cures it effects, and the volun-
tary testimonials of those who have
used Allcock's Plasters during the
past sixty years is unimpeachable
evidence of their superiority and
should convince the most skeptical.
Self-praise is no recommendation, but
certificates from those who have used
them are.
Allcock's are the original and gen.
uine porous plasters and have never
been equaled by those who have
sought to trade upon their reputation
by making plasters with holes in
them. Avoid substitutes as you would
counterfeit money.

too long, and my enthusiasm began to

when he suddenly reeled and fell to
the floor unconscious. He was taken
to his home at Sg49 Exchange avenue,
where he is being cared for.

attention. This is Lecenzkis second
experience of the kind this year.
Louis Franks, a deckhand at the

SCANDAL CONFIRMED
Add Their Testimony
That the Place is Not
Rightly Conducted.

Since the LAKE COUNTY TIMES pub

Of confrmatory nature called to the
attention Of the paper 10 leave no doubt
as 70 the fact that the Roberts regime
is anything but what is should be

a Mr.. Arnold Of Whiting, and E. w
Jewett Of Robertsdale, called up over
the phone and stated that the TIMES
was right in all that was said about
the mana cement Of the bath house.
Mr.. Jewett said he permitted his
daughters to go over there to battle
lie said they were charged 25 cents for
their suits. cents for their stockings
and cents for their caps. making a
total Of IS. when the charge is sup
posed to be but 25 cents.
He said that from his own knowledge
rooms were reserved for those who had
bought suits when they are supposed
to be open and free to everybody

Mr.. Jewett said he thought the
board Of public works ought to take
tile whole business out of Roberts
hands and hire a man to run the place
He said that as money making
scheme it was a fine thing for Rob
crts and a mighty poor thing for the
people of Hammond
Mr. Arnold was of the same opinion
and declared it was a shame that ped
pie who had their own suits were dis
eliminated against
In Hammond it was found that there
were dozens of young men who had a
vigorous kick to register against the
manner in which Roberts is running
the bath house. There are a number
who do not care to have their names
mentioned but who will be willing to
go before the board of public works and
mako complaint if necessary.
"Of course there are times when
the crowds tax the capacity OF the bath
house and when it is difficult to keep
track of things" says the boys who
make these complaints, but they also
believe that this is no reason why they
should not be courteously treated by
the people who are there as the SER
