AFTER The GRIP
PURIFY THE BLOOD
DR.. Williams Pink Pills Are the
Best Blood Builder and VIII
Cure You as They Cured
This Woman.

It is of the utmost importance to your
health, if you have suffered from the
grip, that you cleanse the blood of the
lingering germs and put it in condition
to resist disease.
After the acute attack the sufferer Is
left with debilita6ed system, is short of
breath upon the slightest exertion and
is affected by every change of weather.
The system is in such weakened con-
dition that it is powerless to resist the
attack of such diseases as pneumonia
and bronchitis.
This is a condition which enphati-
cally calls for tonic for the blood. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are the best medi-
cine for this purpose for they act di-
rectly on the blood which they cleanse
of all impurities. They tone up the
nerves and give health and strength to
the debiitated system.
The debility which follows an attack
of the grip can only be cured by max
ing the blood rich and red. This DR..
Williams Pink Pills never fail to do
promptly and It explains how they
cured Mrs. F. R. Boyd, of No. COZ

Small Pox Cases.

Arrest of Man Who Ran Past
Quarantine Guard.

Indignant citizens on the East side
are preparing a petition to be pre-
scented to the mayor asking that some
immediate action be taken in prevent
ing the spread of smallpox in that sec
ton of the city.
These citizens declare that the city
IS not doing its part in curbing the
disease. They say the guard is not on
duty at night and that people come
and go to and from the infected
houses. They say, also, that as soon
as case is dismissed or person dies
the city fumigates the house and then
turns 1t open to the public when there
are other members of the family that
have been exposed.
In their petition they state that TN
less the city places more guards
around the smallpox district on the
East side the petitioners will pay the
expense of hiring more guards. They
are willing to pay out of their pockets
for the protection of their homes.
Now there are fourteen houses un-
der quarantine and two new cases are
suspected. It is claimed by the peo-
pie on the East side that all of the
district from Third to Twelfth street
east OF the Santa Fe railway is in
danger and cases are breaking out.
number of men on the East side
say they will quit their work for a
week and assist in fumigating houses
all over the district and in the more
dangerous blocks.
One new case at 70S Chestnut
street is reported today.
The city board of health through
J. D. Pattison, city sanitary sergeant
has issued warrant for the arrest of
]. B. Smith of 1912 Lime street. 1t is

his wife of smallpox, has disregarded
the guard in the district and has gone
out among the neighbors.
The board of health threatens to
arrest everyone who attempts to go
by the guards.
The city mmissioners at a meet
ing tomorrow morning will plan on
either hiring more guards and station
ing them on the East side, or allowing
the citizens to pay the costs out of
their own pockets

FROM DICK TO DICK.
Miss Abbott Alone Appears to Know
About Mysterious Letter.

washington, July 11.-Washington is
waiting with much interest the story Lo
be told tomorrow before the house COM
mittee on expenditures in the interior
department by Miss NJ. F. Abbott, who
claims to have copied from the files of
the interior department a letter from
Richard S. Ryan to the then Secretary
Richard A. Ballinger, showing thai
Ryan sought the aid of Charles P. Taft
in securing President Tafts approval
of the opening of the water front on
Controller bay, Alaska. The commit
tee was not in session today.
Up to this time Miss Abbott appears
to have been the only person to have
seen the mysterious letter. Secretary
Fisher has said that a thorough search
OF the department files failed to reveal
such a letter. President Taft has
stated that he had never talked with
his brother about Ryan or Controller
bay and it is announced neither the
files at the White House nor those in
tho office Of c. P. Taft show any cor
responaence- on the subject. Ashmun
Brown, former secretary to Mr.. Bal
linger, from whom Miss Abbott claimed
to have secured the letter. has denied
absolutely any knowledge of it. Ac-
cOrding to published accounts Miss Abb
bolt will testify she found attached to
81 typewriter letter from r. S. Ryan to
r. A. Ballinger dated 10, 1910, this note
VI BDHlHCA ABl-
Dear Dfck-I went to see the presi-
dent the other day about the Controller
bay affairs. The president asked whom
it was I represented. I told him ac-
cording to our agreement that I repro
scented myself. But that did not seem
to satisfy him. So I sent for Charlie
Taft and asked him to tell his brother
who 1t was I represented. The presi-
dent made no further objection to my
claim.
yours, DICK"
A list Of witnesses made up late to-
day by the committee conducting the
inquiry is said to include the following:
c. P. Taft, brother of the president;
Daniel Guggenheim, head of the
Alaskan syndicate; Frank II. Hitch
cock, postmaster general; Walter l.
Fisher, secretary of the interior; Rich
ard s. Ryan, the alleged promoter,
and a large number of land office
clerks.
The inquiry promises to be a, long
one.
