HOW A MANS LIVER
DEFENDS HIS LIFE

The liver is usually quiet, unas-
Stunning organ and we do not think
much about it. 1t has. however, pro-
tective functions that should COM
mand respect.
In the process of intestinal indi-
gestion there are set free what >pkysi-
clans and scientists call toxic
bodies" in other words poisons. IL
these poisons enter into the circula-
ton of the blood biliousness or sick
headache results.
Regularly the liver is able to de-
stroy these toxic bodies but If 1t lags
in it's work they quickly form in
amounts excessive enough to be
troublesome. Headache, constipa-
ton, dizziness, furred tongue, wind
on the stomach, bad complexion are
the means by which nature gives
warning that the liver needs help.
The remedy is to stimulate the liv-
er by the use of Pinklets, the gentle
laxative pills that do not grippe or
purge but simply assist nature.
Harsh laxatives and salts often do
harm by aggravating the conditions
they are taken to correct. Pinklets,
taken regularly for a time, really do
correct constipation.
Your own druggist can supply you
with Pinklets or they will be sent by
mail, postpaid, by the DIR. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y, at
20 cents per bottle. Send for helpful

is one of the few plants that will bios

Small ferns obtained from a florist
will flourish. These are particularly
adapted to house culture, as they do
not require direct sunlight. (Care of

kenilworth ivy may be planted

Smilax may be grown from the back

The inexperienced grower of plants

roses. These plants are most exacting,

affected by mildew, blight, etc.
The ordinary individual who de-

described in previous article of this

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Tammany

in New York State. Charles F. Muir

day, although he did not admit that
the party needed reorganization.
Mr.. Murphy appeared at his desk in

chairman made political history at
their conference in Washington.
A few days ago. Mr.. Murphy defied

STREET
PAVING WILL Be
STARTED IN PR|L
Board of Works Today Passes
Resolution Finally Over
Mayors Veto.

Work on the paving of Broad
street with wood block will start in
April. This was announced at a
meeting of the Board of Works this
afternoon. The board had just
passed on final reading the resolu-
tion awarding the contract
City Counsel Nugent at a meeting
announced that the awarding of the
contract was legal He said he was
surprised to learn that Mayor Hauss-
ling had questioned the legality of
the pavement resolution by the
Board of Works.
The mayor questioned the legality
of the proceedings in his veto mes
sage sent to the board two weeks
ago, and which resulted in bitter
criticism of the mayors statements.
The criticisms came from the mem-
bers of the Board of Works who
were attacked.
The vote on tho final award of the
Broad street repaving was four to
one, Commissioner Ryan alone vot-
ing in the negative.
When the meeting started this aft
ernoon, Mayor Haussling submitted
his final veto on wood block. 1t was
waged against the action of the
Board of Works in approving the new
kind of pavement.
The mayor left this afternoon for
New Orleans. where he will be the
guest of Mayor Behrmann until the
end Of the month.
In vetoing the resolution Mayor
Haussling says it is his belief the
contract is illegal. He asserts that
under the contract assessments might
be resisted successfully by property
owners. This would practically place
the entire expense upon the city The
resolution the mayor vetoed provides
for the execution of the contract for
paving Broad sseeet with wood block.
His communication Is as follows:
L return herewith. without my ap-
proval, resolution adopted by your
honorable body on February 8 last
authorizing the execution of a
contract for the repaving of Broad
street from Belleville avenue to South
street with wood block.
II am unable to approve of this
resolution because it is my belief thai
the contract with which it is con-
cerned is in several respects illegal
and that if the work should be done
under this instrument assessments
might be successfully resisted by pri-
rate property owners. thus placing
the entire or almost the entire, ex.

MANNING CANNOT
Be AN ACCESSORY
Prosecutor Confirms Fact Prin-
cipaI in Murder Must Be
Convicted First.

II developed today that no matter
what evidence the police may find in
the future showing that Manning had
knowledge of the murder Of his wife,
either before or after its commission,
he can never be prosecuted as an ac-
cessory before or after the fact.
The reason for this lies right in
the law of the state of New Jersey,
which provides that before an ac-
cessory can be tried for murder the
principal must be tried and convicted
of the crime As Hazel Herdman is
the acknowledged principal in the
Manning murder no charge of acces-
sorry can rest against Manning or his
sister, Mrs. Sadie Garrabrant.
Hazel Herdman is dead and the
chance of charging any one else with
being an accessory died with her.
This fact was pointed out today by
lawyer and was confirmed by Pros
ocutor Louis Hood when the matter
was called to his attention.
