Mrs. Thaw herself learned OF the threat
ened proceedings against her through a

was that she didn't have the money to
pay Nine. Hartwig's bill, and she didn't
know where she was going to get it.
Don't you get anything from Mr..
Thaw?" she was asked.
"Not penny said she. Il saved him
from the electric chair. and now that he
knows he's al right, he hasn't anything
to do with me-
And Mrs. Thew - that is. the elder
Mrs. Thaw-don't you get anything from
her?"

OF Nine Hartwig. and he immediately
fixed things up with Joseph S. Buhler,
Mr.. Buhler says that O'Reilly promised
to see that the money was paid by noon
to-day and that he would not undertake
to get any more postponements from the
courts on the understanding that the
order for Mrs. Thaw's arrest be kept out
Of the Sheriff's hands
Mr.. O'Reilly was asked what was going
to happen to Mrs. Thaw. 'You can say
for me- said he. that she's not going to
go to Jail"
Then she'll pay the money!
-The money will be paid.' he said,

pellate Division might make it possible

Local Druggists Were kent
Busy All Week.
Relieves the Lame Backs and
Many Made Happy. {
No Sufferer Of Kidney Trouble
Should Leave Il untrled,

4nat the readers of this paper an
preciate advice when given in good
falth is plainly demonstrated by th,.
fact that one well-known local phar-
macy supplied the ingredients for the
vegetable prescription many times
within the past two weeks. The an
nouncement of this simple, harmless
mixture has certainly ACCOMPLISHED
much in reducing the great many
cases of kidney complaint and rheu-
lnatlsm here, relieving pain and mis-
cry, especially among the older popula-
ton, who are always suffering more
or less with bladder and urinary trou-
bies, bachache and particularly rheu-
matiSn:.
Another Well-known druggist asks
us to continue the announcement OF
the prescription. 1t is doing so much
real good here, he continues, that it
would he crime not to do so. 1t can
not be repeated too often, and further
states many cases of remarkable cures
wrought
The following is the prescription, of
simple ingredients, making a harmless.
inexpensive compound. which any per-
son can prepare by shaking we'll in a
bottle; Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup SarsaprilIa,
three ounces. Any first-class drugstore
will sell this small amount of each in
grctlient and the dose for adults is one
|teaspoonful to he taken after each meal
and again a. bedtime. There is enough
here to last for one week, if taken ac-
cording to directions. Good results;
will be apparent from the first few
doses
