In order that every reader of the Sentinel-Record who needs treatment may have an opportunity to test this celebrated medicine, the now famous Indiana scientist has come to the front with an offer to give absolute ly free a large proof package to five hundred readers of this paper to prove the wonderful claims which have been made for it. In making this offer the scientist said: "I know that there are many people who have been suffer ing for years with some chronic dis ease and many of them have spent large sums of money seeking cure.

JURY WAS HUNG IN SALOON CASE
EVIDENCE AS TO SALES BEING SHOWN ON CASH REGISTER
 NOT SUFFICIENT PROOF.
lngress and Egress Prosecution Was Not Supported Sufficiently and
 Jury Fails to Find Verdict.

In the trial of an "ingress and egress' case in the circuit court yes terday. wherein the state was prose cutting L. Lane, bartender for the Pullman hotel, the jury failed to reach verdict Its final announce ment to the court was that the jury stood so hopelessly divided that there was no chance to ever reach gn agreement.
 The principal part of the states evidence was from Deputies Hollo- way and Lane, who told about going by the Pullman Sunday and seeing the bartender mixing drinks behind the bar, and that they saw the sum of % cents signified on the cash register as a sale.
 They went away and tried to ger in themselves later, but could not do so, they testified, but they told about looking in again and finding the sum of 35 cents on the register which in dicated to them that another sale had been made.
 The defense took the position that ingress and egress had not been established against him, and that moreover he had been tried under a former charge which was similar in its nature, would have covered the offense, had the saloon been open Under the testimony no one was seen in the bar but the bartender.

 BEAUTIFUL HAIR

Nothing equals an aureole of beauti. ful hair as a frame for pretty face. Without a background of nice hair a really pretty face frequently becomes plain and with it, unattractive fea- lures assume life and beauty.
 Every woman can increase her natn- raj charm by using Newbro's Herpi- eide. Herpicide makes hair beautiful. The dandruff germ saps the vitality of the hair. Herpicide kills this germ and prevents the hair from falling out, giving it snap and luster, a soft. silky fluffiness which can be acquired in no other way.

HANDS WOULD CRACK OPEN

about two months ago my hands
started to crack open and bleed, the
skin would scale off, and the good
flesh would burn and itch dreadfully.
When my hands first started to get
sore, there were small blisters like wa
ter blisters which formed. They
itched dreadfully. it just seemed as
though I could tear the skin all of. I
would scratch them and the skin would
peel OF, and the flesh would be all
red and crack open and bleed. It wor-
ried me very much, as had never
had anything the matter with my skin.
/ was so afraid would have to give
up my employment.
my doctor said he didn't think It
would amount to anything. But it kept
getting worse. One day saw piece
in one Of the papers about lady who
had the same trouble with her hands.
She had used Cuticura Soap and Otnt'
ment and was cured. decided to try
them, and my hands were all healed
before l had used one cake Of Cuti-
cura Ointment. I am truly thankfut

All letters addressed to the king and queen
of England are sent direct to whichever OF the
royal residences they are occupying from the
general postoftice In London in specially
sealed bags, says the Strand. In the case OF
Buckingham palace, this bag arrives, az
rule just as his majesty is finishing dinner.
and is taken charge Of by the secretary on
duty, who opens 1t and proceeds to sort out
the contents. Such letters as will ultimately
demand the personal attention Of King George
are placed before him the same night, but
it is not often that he deals with them at tho
moment, save in matters that will not brook
delay He glances through them, makes
few brief notes upon them, and they are then
placed under lock and key until he Is ready
for them on the following morning.
He has barely had time to deal with these
before the royal breakfast is served and al
most simultaneously an even larger bag OF
correspondence arrives. Only those who have
been called upon to handle them can realize
the vastness Of the royal postbags, the con-
tents of which often range from a private
communication from some amiable lunauc
who considers that his claim to the British
throne is superior to that of King George. By
the organization of a we'll nigh perfect sys-
TEN, however, this heavy correspondence is
dealt with in remarkably quick time. Lord
Stamfordham, should he be on duty, opens
every communication, and, glancing at 1t,
places the bulk of it in the large crimson

KING GEORGES MAIL BAG

leather basket labeled with the tenor Of the
epistle.
THUS invitations to undertake public func-
lions Of one description or another 60 into
one basket, charitable appeals into another,
the official report of the proceedings of the
two houses of parliament into a smaller bas-
ket, letters Of a personal character into
fourth, and so on. At the finish there Is a
small but highly important little pile left.
This Is composed of letters from the rulers Of
other states personal reports from our ambas-
sailors abroad or communications from min
listers at home. These never for one instant
leave the custody Of whoever is intrusted with
the task of opening them. There is a special
boz standing on the table with slit in the
top Of it wide enough to take any paper. 1t is
fastened with patent lock, Of which only the
king, Lord Knollys and Lord Stamfordham
have the keys.
These are the first letters that are pre-
ssnted to the king every morning, together
with memorandum reminding him of the
duties he has to perform that day. In many
cases the king elects to write letters in reply
with his own hand, but should this not be
convenient he sends for one of his secretaries
and dictates his reply. His majesty is by no
means a quick thinker and likes to ponder
over every word that he proposes to place on
paper In this respect he presents a curious
contrast to his late father, who would reply to
the most important letter in a few seconds.

WoMEN's LEAP YEAR RIGHTS
In Scotland YearssAgo They Were Rec

: fined by Law.

Ancient, indeed, are the prerogatives
that are accorded to women in leap
year. They are so old that none can
tell Just how or when they originated.
However, the ancient Scottish parlia-
uent gives US a date as well as law
upon which to hang the right of wom-
en- to take the initiative III leap year.
as convention forbids them to do in
other years.
In the year 1928 this body passed a
law which, in its quaint old English,
expressly conferred on womankind the
right to propose marriage in leap year.
Here is the law, just as it was written
in the parliamentary records:
"Ordonit that during ye reign Of her
maist blessed Majestic, ilka maiden.
ladee Of bath high and lowe estait,
shale hae libertie to speak We man she
likes. Gift he refuses to tax hir to bee
his wyf, he shale be mulct in ye sum
of ane hundridty pundes, or less, as
his estait may bee, except and alwais
gif he can make it appeare that he is
betrothit to another woman, then he
shale be free"
