line people to pay taxes on oil at the
rate of 60 cents per barrel which Is
rank injustice, but is in line with
the policy Of each and every demo-

Mrs. Pearl Tibbetts, of 1926 Jackson
Ave, Wichita, also we'll known in
Topeka, has this to say of "Tona
Vita the new tonic that is making
such q record in Topeka, at present.
81 nave been in miserable condi
ton of health for some time. 1 never
did known exactly what was the mat
ter with me. 1 just felt worn out all
the time. 1 got no enjoyment from
anything and could not eat or sleep
or properly attend to my work.
IT was as tired in the mornings as
when I retired at night and stayed
that way all day. My nerves were in
a frightful state and the least little
thing would upset me and make me
my stomach also gave me a great
deal of trouble and my appetite was
very poor and when I did eat heartily
I would be troubled with indigestion.
Some time ago I got some of this
'Tona Vita and the first thing that
I noticed I began to sleep better and
did not toss all night as formerly.
Then my appetite began to improve
and INV food did not distress me. 1
have grown steadily stronger each day
and now I hardly seem like the same
person.
Before using 'Tona Vita had
my normal condition, but nothing I
have ever taken compared with this.
It has made me into a well woman
when I had about lost hope"
The specialists who are introducing
the new tonic in Topeka, say that
several thousand people are now TAX
ing the tonic in this city.
1--WE are selling NTona Vita to a
great many people here" said one
of the specialists yesterday, "but when
you think that this city has at least
10000 debilitated, half sick people
who would be Immensely benefited by
the tonic it does not seem as if we
are accomplishing as much as We
should. However, the sale is growing
larger very fast as people who are
taking the tonic tell their friends what
it has done, and this does more than
anything else to make people realize
what a really wonderful tonic 'Tona
Vita is.
1--WE will continue to meet callers
at the Arnold Drug Company's Store,
523 Kansas Avenue, between the
hours of 9 a. m. and p. m. If the
tonic does not do all we claim for it
the purchase price is refunded"

the young suffragette said:
My fellow citizens come pleading for
you men to let the women vote. Do I
believe in the way Mrs. Pankhurst is

not believe in smashing up the windows,
but I do think you ought to let US vote.

JOHNSON is STILL ALIVE.
O'Bryan VIII Not Deny He Is Racing
at JuareZ.


St. Louis March IA. A John
son, supposed slayer of George A
Kimmel is well and alive instead of
reposing in a grave in the woods near
Coos Bay, Ore. according to Edward
O'Bryan, chief counsel of the insur-
ance company which was defendant
in the famous identity case over which
a jury in the United States district
court here disagreed in a week ago.
John Boone Swinney, New Mexican
ranchman, testified at the trial that
he killed Johnson and buried him a
few minutes after he had killed Kim
mel, who was accompanying them on
a treasure hunt.
O'Bryan, while in the city declared
Johnson would be produced at the
next trial. johnson, he said, is a
jockey and at one time was a race
horse owner and in fairly prosper
Gus condition. When asked where
johnson is now, O'Bryan answered by
saying there are only few places
where racing is now permitted and
added that johnson is still at his old
business.
johnson, according to O'Bryan,
lived in this city in 1896 and 1897
and disappeared in 1898, the same
year in which Kimmel disappeared
from Arkansas City, Kan. When
pressed regarding Johnson's present
Whereabouts, O'Bryan would not deny
that he is in Juarez, Mex. although
he would not admit it.
