posted on prices OF produce every

the commission men get TO be out

come down In price he will order

own pocket and selling them at cost.
The market place here had got TO

men bought him out, took his stand

farmer got.
When a farmer brought wagon

sell IL, because he was told the mar
ket was "glutted." He had to give
Il to the commission men for song

Shank started TO fight the peddlers'

scheme is to give farmers free space

POLICE SEEK TWO ITALIANS.
oiannoIIa Brothers Wanted In connec.
ton with D. & c. Thefts.

Arrangements of the Italians impli-
Gated in the theft OF big shipments Of
olive oil and other goods from the d. &
c. docks, took place in Police Justice
Jeffries court, Wednesday morning,
and all the cases were put over until
Oct. 10. The police are still looking
for Samuel and Toney Giannolla,
brothers, wanted in connection with
the case. They kept q store at No.
491 Biddle-ave., Wyandotte. and De-
tectlves Reid and Good say that great
quantities Of olive oil were delivered
at that store.
AS soon as the theft was discovered
and the police got active, the brothers
disappeared. Samuel Is also wanted
In the recorders court, where a
charge Of horse stealing Is pending
against him. A civil suit Is pending
against him In the circuit court, also.
Altogether Samuel Is a much-wanted
man.
The police have been thwarted In
their efforts TO run down the perpetra-
tors of the theft by the proverbial ST
lence OF the Sicilians. Those who have
been arrested are close-mouthed. JOS
eph Provanziano, who was first ar
rested, is the man who hauled some OF
the goods away. He declares he knows
nothing OF the matter and that he was
merely hired by another party to do
the teaming. The police intimate that
he knows all about It and say that the
reason he has kept silence is that he
has been threatened by other inter-
ested Italians.
Samuel Giannolly and Joseph Pro-
vanziano are charged with grand lar
ceny, and the same two, with William
Giannolla and Samuel Cipriano are
charged with conspiracy.

Stomach Sufferers
Squander Millions
In Search Of Relief.

The world Is full OF disofdered
stomachs and 90 per cent OF the money
spent upon physicians and drugs goes
In an attempt to cure the stomach.
People are made to believe that In
order TO gain health they must doc
tor their stomachs and use cathartcs.
So the doctor gets his fee for the
stomach treatment and the druggist
for the physic, until the savings OF a
lifetime are exhausted and yet no
cure.
Let's be reasonable.
The sick stomach Is In every case
the result of over-eating, hurried mas
tication and improper choice OF foods

and when food Is forced down the
