This mornings com p!aints were from 574 Washington ave- nue, S39 Park avenue, 998 State street 1,246 East Main street and 89 LindIey street.

Davenport, or Hertz, the Brooklyn youth at present living at the jail on forgery charges, has en- listed the sympathy of a number of prominent church people in his case under the plea that it fas his first of fense and that he was slightly intox- icated' al the time. Captain of Detec- tives George H. Arnold and Prosecut- ing Attorney Alexander L. Delaney were approached this morning in the hope that leniency might be shown. Little sympathy was given by either, their contention being that the evil dence little indicated need for sympa- thy.

plete break down in health, some time
ago." writes Mrs. A. McGill, from this
place. 81 was very weak and could
not do any work / tried different
remedies. but they did me no good.
One day, got bottle of Cardui. 1t
did me so much good, was surprised,
and took some more.
Before took Cardui. had headachs

think 1t is the greatest medicine on
earth"
In the past fifty years, thousands Of
ladies have written, like Mrs. McGill,

Cardui.
