SWINDLER LODGED In JAIL
Claimed to be Special Representa-
tive of the Great lioyds Company,
of London, England.

Lancaster Herald: Another slick
swindler, who gives his name as Joe
Gibson is behind the bars of the Grant
county Jail, face to face with the grim
eyed law
Gibson, who is a man about % years
old, with almost snow white hair and
mustache, has been operating in this
section of country for several weeks
past, posing as an agent for the great
insurance company, LlOyds of London,
England, and his business has been that
of writing insurance upon high class
registered horses and cattle, particular
ly horses, with fondness for racing
stock and breeding stations.
He was taken before Justice Burrows
on Friday evening, where he waived
examination and was bound over for
trial at the October term of court in the
sum of 5000 bail. He is now in Jail
and has nothing to say concerning his
case.
When arrested he was searched and
$16S050 in currency was found upon
his person. The officers also found a
large number of written applications
representing policies he has sold since
April |. and he claims he has not sent
any in to the company since that time
There never was IA time when people
appreciated the real merits of Chamberlain 5
Cough Remedy more than now. This is shown
by the income in sales and voluntary testinon-
ials from persons who have been cured by it.
If you or your children are troubled with a
cough OF cold give it trial and become ac-
quainted with its good qualities. For sale by
all dealers.

With the dining-raom comfortable

thought to the correct setting OF the

Beautiful decorated china and cut

colored from improper washing and
cleaning and the dishes indifferently

IT is not so much what Is put on
the table, such as fine dishes, linen

linen should be spotless and white

launder ones mouchoirs is laudablc
economy, but to paste them while wet

mirror always blurs and occasionally

blood had something to do with it,.
and there was breeding, but there
was something more than these; he
was a reversion, perhaps, to the type
of man which had made the rovers of
the lowlands feared on land and sea,
now hemmed in by conVen
ton, hampered by the barriers of
progress, and striving futilely to find
outlet for his peculiar energies. One
bit of knowledge gratified him; he
stood nearer to Courtlandt than any
other man. He had known the ad-
venturer as a boy, and long separa-
tions had in nowise impaired the
foundations of this friendship.
Courtlandt continued toward the
exit, his head forward his gaze bent
on the path. He had the air of "a
man deep in thought, philosophic
thought, which leaves the brow un
marred by those corrugations known
as frowns. Yet his thoughts were far
| from philosophic. Indeed, his soul
was in mad turmoil. He could have
thrown his arms toward the blue
| sky and cursed aloud the fates that
| had set this new tangle at his feet

mad beasts to vent his wrath upon.

"Oh, yes. You were talking of Da

know to whom we refer. You said
she was Irish, and that when she
