A 5ury'awarded Dorothy IS, 5oO1for
the boss Of her leg, which was none
too much.
The case went up to the supreme
court OF the state, and in giving the
courts decision Justice Garrison said:
"The verdict OF $500 is too high.
The Jury did not take into cOnsidera-
Hon the great improvement in cork
fegs."
So on the second trial, because Of
this heartless decision. the jury was
competed to cut the $500 in half.

Looking on this decision and then on
that, we are confronted with the dead

For a SCARED neck, $4,000.
For one leg, 5000.

Tie one girl is well provided for and

the $4,000 IS no more TO her than a

help her family and sooner or later

REFLECTIONS ON HIS NOSE

Because of the numerous reflections
on his red nose many a man possessed
of that affliction has determined to rid
himself of 1t, and has done so quickly
through the use OF a little poslam, the
new skin remedy. naturally flesh color

the health of the skin-poslam shows

it will soothe and tone UP the skin as
no toilet preparation could possibly do.
According to the uses for which II is
employed, poslam may be purchased in
