A WONDER THAT
HAS PUZZLED MANY.

There are many people that are
greatly puzzled over the wonderful
effects of Root Juice. When this new
medicine was first introduced it was
generally thought that a new fake
was born to die in a short time. But
as time passes and so many testimon-
ials are pouring in from all over the
country from people who had given up
hope of ever seeing another well day,
and neighbor is telling neighbor of
some great good received from the
use Of Root Juice, many people are
wondering why this great remedy was
not discovered years ago. What a
great boon to humankind is a remedy
like Root Juice, a combination of ma
lures drugs that soothes and heals
and tones the stomach. liver, kidneys
and bowels. How sweet is health and
how wonderful are the many cures
that Root Juice has made of rheuma-
tism, catarrh, Indigestion, female
weakness and other troubles of the di-
gestive and secretory organs. Those
who wish to learn of this great rene
dy should go to A. G.. Luken & Co.'S
drug store.

IS QUITE A PROBLEM
Wholesale Theft of Bicycles
Causing the Police a
Lot of Trouble.
MANY THEFTS REPORTED

The wholesale theft of bicycles is
a problem with which the local police
have been wrestling for the past sew
eral days. Within the last ten days
no less than a dozen bicycles have
quarters until now almost every time
the telephone bell rings, Chief of Po-
lice Staubach makes a wry face and
mutters Another bike gone"
Many Of the supposedly "thefts"
however are nothing more than
'~'strayed" bicycles and are later found
by their wne several blocks from
ing, having been ridden off and then
abandoned by that pest to humanity
the small boy. Five bicycles were
gathered off of the streets about mid
night Monday and taken to police
headquarters where the officers await
ed the anxious inquiry of the careless
owners. Nevertheless many Of the
bicycles about the city have been stol-
en- and have beer recovered.
The police are of the opinion that a
gang of bicycles thieves is operating
in the city and they are endeavoring
to break up the practice.
In order to throw the police off of
the scent, bicycles have been stolen
and the wheels of one attached to the
frame of another making it very diff
cult to identify the lost article. 1t is
probable that several arrests will be
made soon in the matter.
