Authorities are pretty well united in
the opinion that ordinary care on the
part of the Individual greatly lessons
the danger of contracting consumption.
So many cases of this dread disease
have their origin in neglect of an or
binary cough or cold that 1t is appal-
ling to note the Indifference with which
so many people regard this common
complaint.
At the first indication Of a cold steps
should be taken to check it at once.
For this purpose the following simple
formula is highly recommended as
being most effective. Mix together in
a large bottle two ounces of Glycerine,
a half ounce of Virgin Oil of Pine COM
pound pure and eight ounces of pure
Whisky Shake we'll and take tea
spoonful four times day. 1t is
claimed by the Leach Chemical Co. Of
Cincinnati, who prepare the genuine
Virgin Oil Of Pine compound pure, that
this mixture will break up a cold in
twenty-four hours and cure any cough
that is durable.

POLICE TRAIL
JEWEL EXPERTS
PARLIN BROTHERS IN DEMAND
IN LOS ANGELES
Claim Made by Local Officers That
the Accused Men Formerly
Operated in Eastern
City

The arrest of Sam and Simon Parlin,
formerly jewellers, 31S o. It. Johnson
building, who left Los Angeles short
time ago without leaving their future
address, and who are alleged to have
defrauded Los Angeles jewellers out of
diamonds valued at about $S50O, is an
ticipated by the police department, as
they have been traced to New Haven,
Conn.,, where it is said they formerly
operated in the same role as diamond
merchants.
The brothers are wanted here to an
swer a charge of embezzlement, the
complaint being sworn to by j. Rosen-
krantz. a diamond dealer, who stated
that he gave them two diamonds, vail
ued at $500, to be set. Rosenkrantz al
Ieges that he received seven-day
prommisory note, and when he went
to collect the amount stated in the note,
he found the doors locked, and efforts
to locate the Parlin brothers We're fu-
tile.
Many Losses Reported
Since the complaint made by Rosen-
krantz, II. Slaff, POS East Fifth street,
reported that he gave to the same firm
not recovered. Charles Kelley of Pas
adena also reported that he left with
the Parlin brothers jewelry valued at
S34. which he has not seen since. AL
bert Fink g. Co., 424 South Broadway,
also allege that they were Victimized
to the extent of $500.
Joseph Rittigstein, who figured prom
inently as a victim of "Hurry Up" Har-
nv Brown, and who is a jeweler at 54O
South Broadway alleges that his bank
roll decreased $645 as a result of his
dealings with the Parlin brothers. G.
Russo. a jeweler and importer of Ital-
ian coral, PIG South Broadway, claims
that when the Parlins fled from Los
Angeles, they took with them property
belonging to him which he valued at
$500.
Traced to Chicago
Since the first complaint was made
the Parlin brothers have been traced
to Denver, then to Chicago, and the
police of New Haven, Conn, have been
asked to apprehend them upon their ar
rival in the Nutmeg city.
The Parlin brothers came to Los AM
geles a year ago and introduced them
selves as diamond experts, and an
nounced their speciality as that of re-
setting diamonds and repairing jewelry
They soon acquired a large clientele.
AS a result of the confidence gained
from their patrons they became favor
ably known to the extensive diamond
dealers of Los Angeles and great
deal of work was entrusted to them.
Before the return of the gems, it is said,
the Parlin brothers closed their shop
and departed suddenly and silently
from Los Angeles.

The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1909-04-29

There were many odd ways in an =
lent times of detecting criminals.
Our ancestors had not lived long
enough to lose their faith in the
cravings of conscience, and Divine
interference in earthly justice was
superstitiously regarded as a daily
occurrence.
No queerer example of this could
be found than the ancient mode of
trying prisoners by bread ald cheese.
The unfortunate offender was led,
with a halter round his neck, to the
parish church, and there in the pres
ence of all the parishioners, the
rriest put pieces of cheese and rye
bread In patten on the altar. These
he blessed and then the supposed
criminal had to eat them dry be-
fore the congregation.
If he managed to swallow them
easily he was acquitted, but If he
choked he was condemned. Natur-
ally enough scores of innocent folk
were thus done to death.-Pear-
sons Weekly.

An Anxious Inquirer Answered.

Felicia r., of Towson, wants legal
advice. She writes an excited hand
and says:
Dear, kind editor-I wish to con-
suit you about my neighbor. He has
a goat, and he got into yard and ate
two quilts and the wash boiler, and
when | spoke to him about it he
sneered and laughed, and that same
evening he caught my little boy in the
alley and butted him in the fence.
Should have him arrested?"
There is something wrong with that
neighbor. The eating of the bedding
and the boiler may be set down as a
mere idiosyncrasy, yet when he butted
the boy in the fence he went too far.
Have him arrested. By the way, why
do you mention the goat?

Troops Formed of Foreigners.

The Foreign Legion is composed of
very heterogeneous lot, who have
found Europe too hot for them, and
it is curious thing that the German
element seems to predominant in this
French force. Most of these Germans
are deserters from their own army,
though in the Legion they soon find
that it is even worse than an ordinary
case of "out of the frying pan into
the fire." The legion is now almost
the only survival from the days when
Kings and Governments accepted the
service of foreign troops, unless in
deed another instance of the same
kind is furnished by the Pope's pres
