Writer Celebrates Birthday.

LONDON May 20. -" Sherlock
Holmes" received hearty congratula-
lions today from friends and admir-
-ers all over the world, on the occasion
of his 54th birthday. Sir Arthur Con-
an Doyle was born in Edinburgh. He
was educated for the medical profess
sion and practiced at Southsea be-
tween 1882 and 1890, after abandoning
medicine in favor of novel writing.
His first Sherlock Holmes" story, "a
Study in Scarlet appeared in 1887,
and with "The Sign of the Four" pub
lished two years later, attracted con-
siderable attention But it was THE
Adventures of Sherlock Holmes"
which appeared in 1893 In the Strand
magazine, which established his re-
putation The character of the famous
detective was drawn from Doyle's
old school teacher, Professor Bell,
who, according to the author, possess
ed extraordinary powers of deduction
and observation. Doyle married Miss
Jean Locke in 1907 and has one son.
King Edward created him knight in
1902.

"BILLY' WHITLA KID
MAPPING CASE AGAIN

| The BOyles were convicted after a rec
ord trial after the Whitla boy was
found in Cleveland in Mrs. Boyles
keeping. The Boyles had demanded
a heavy ransom for the little fellow
At the time OF the trial, Gilbert B.
Perkins, head of the Perkins Detective
agency, who had led in the search for
the boy, furnished practically all the
evidence for the prosecutor. Among
other things Perkins brought to light
an alleged flye-year police record
against Helen Boyle. She denied the
record as a frame-up and during one
session of the trial dramatically de-
nounced Perkins, telling him, de-
spite efforts OF court officials to quiet
her, that he would live to come before
Judge as defendant begging for
mercy. Perkins is now serving term
in the Leavenworth penitentiary.
Attorney Reese today declared he
has evidence which will absolutely
prove that the alleged police record
was without foundation. He present
ed to the pardon board affidavits from
Chicago in which it was declared that
during the five years the police record
covered, the woman had been at the
home of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
William McDermott, and that she had
not left her Chicago home until thir-
teen months before the Kidnapping of
Billy Whitla.
A plea was also made by Attorney
Reese today to the effect that the
twenty-five year sentence was grossly
unjust and that the woman has been
sufficiently punished for her part in
the kidnapping. Other arguments
made by Reese today were to the eff
feet that Helen Boyle knew nothing
of the kidnapping until the child was
taken to her in Cleveland by her hus-
band

PORTLAND, Oregon, May 22.-Port-

efficiently than any other city in the

the same theory that it takes one

of Portland conceived the idea that
it takes small boy to keep another

OF 1000 proud young wearers of spec

BILLY" Whitla kidnapping case, which
mystified the police OF the country
about four years ago, and which re-
suited in legislation making the Of
tense a crime punishable by life SEN
tence in several states, was fought
over again here yesterday when law
yers for Helen Boyle before the Penn

of leniency for their client. Helen
Boyle is serving 25-year sentence
in the western Pennsylvania peni-
Tertiary for her part in the sensational
kidnapping case. Her husband, Jas.
Boyle is serving life sentence.
Attorney Fred E. Reese presented
evidence tending to show that Helen
Boyle's record which counted heav-
lily with the court in considering her
sentence, was complete "frame-up.'

Man Bought a Bottle Of Dodson's Liver
Tone, Then Took II Back and Asked
For His Money and Got II

A man recently tried out the guar
antee which B. L. Browder gives with
every bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone.
He bought bottle and then went
back to the drug store and said the
medicine hadn't helped him.
The druggist just reached into his
cash register and took out a half dol
lar, the price of the bottle of Liver
Tone, and handed it back to the gen.
tleman. But he didn't take the money.
He owned up that he was just trying
the guarantee and, as matter of
fact, he had found Dodson's Liver
Tone the best remedy for constipation
and biliousness he had ever tried.
Why" be said, my wife wouldn't
be without bottle in the house for
anything. It's the best thing in the
world for the whole family, and the
