The laundry account is mixed with

STORY SURROUNDS
A MANDOLIN THEFT
Tale of Love and Jealousy
Unfolded in the Police
Court Monday.

Behind the arrest of Horace Jones
and Charles Vazen, aged 10 and II
respectively, for the theft of a mando-
lin, which was left in custody of Mason
Berton, with whom Vazen and Jones
roomed, at rs North Seventh street, is
concealed story of love and jealousy.
The tale was partly developed in po-
lice court Tuesday morning.
The name of the girl is still con-
cealed, but the story was not spoiled
because of the refusal of the three
SWANS, two the prosecuted, and the
third the prosecuting witness, to give
her name. On Sunday night Berton
who had been left in charge Of the ef-
fects of Ray Seal. which included the
mandolin, while Seal was at Brook
vile, had a quarrel with Jones and
Vazen over the girl. Some things We're
said which were not repeated in court,
but the friendship between Berton and
the other two ceased.
On Monday night the plot developed
little further when Vazen and Jones
took the musical instrument and pawn
ed it for dollar with South Sixth
street dealer. Later they were arrest
ed and both were found guilty of petit
larceny. in police court Tuesday and
sentenced to the county Jail for Is
days and fined tive and costs. Berton
told how he had been "cheated" out of
his girl some weeks ago by stories Va
zen and Jones told, and which when
he found untrue, prompted him to re-
return to the girl and again seek her
favor. Berton says that it was then
that the feud developed in earnest. He
accused one of the two with having
taken the girls watch on the pretext
of having it repaired. The watch is
still with the jeweler with $3.50 mark
ed against it. Berton did not state
whether he would seek further favor
with his girl by returning the gold
time piece.
Berton and Vazen came to Rich.
mond from Chaldoi, Pa, last July.
Jones was taken in by the other boys.
Berton works in factory but he said
the other two were loafing.

A Science With Some Dealers-Done

There is nothing lust as good as
Newbro's Herpicide Some dealers
will even 60 SO far as to tell you they
have something better.
That dealer has an axe to grind
You can't stop his grinding, but you
can prevent him grinding it at your
expense.
There is one sure, swift way to do it,
Go where you can set what you ask
for.
You won't be obligedto do this very
often. as fortunately the majority of
druggists are honest and conscientious.
Newbro's Herpicide has been so long
and favorably known as the original
dandruff germ destroyer that no one
should be deceived.
When you need a hair remedy, you
don't want one which merely promises
to kill the dandruff germ and prevent
the hair from falling.
You want one that will do it,
Herpicide does it,
The hair becomes soft and lustrous.
There is life, snap and beauty where
formerly the hair was dead, dull and
brittle.
Newbro's Herpicide is sold and
guaranteed by all druggists.
Applications of this wonderful pro-
phylactic may be obtained at the best
barber shops and hair dressing par.
