CLAIMS GANG SaOFLlF
WANTS FAIR PLAY &c
Last winter Mrs. Lila Leatherman
stole silk dresses from Charles Ste
vens & Co.'S State street store.
Working with Mrs. Leatherman was
a gang. In May this gang got caught
and State street store detectives told
the newspapers a gang had been
captured" and all were going to get
fierce punishment.
Out of fourteen thieves captured
last May only one has been jammed
through for any real punishment.
Now allegations come that all of the
professional crooks, all the Old-tim-
ers in the gang, got off easy, while
the one that got jammed is the only
woman in the gang who doesn't have
a police record and is new to the
business.
90 Judge Charles M. Thompson today
sent a messenger to Gov. Dunno with
a letter asking pardon for Mrs. Lila
Leatherman. She is in the Bridewell
with six months to serve of an eight
months sentence for stealing silk
dresses.
The main facts on which Judge
Thompson asks pardon for the
Leatherman woman are these:
Since Mrs. Leatherman was sent
to the Bridewen Mr.. and Mrs. Jimmy
SchIesinger, leaders of the gang, got
one continuance after another in
the courts. Last week they were SEN
fenced to one week in county Jail.
Lucille Harmon, Jessie Mace and
other women who were in on steal
ing silk dresses and fur coats from
Stevens are out on parole. Nobody
in the gang got any real punishment
except Mrs. Leatherman.
Asst States Atty John PrystalsH
said that in the Leatherman case the
woman pleaded guilty.

WHEN YOU WAKE UP DRINK GLASS
 OF HOT WATER
Wash the poisons and toxins from system before putting more
 food into stomach.
Says inside-bathing makes any one look and feel clean,
 sweet and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside before breakfast like you do on the outside. This is vastly more important because the skin pores do not absorb impuri- ties into the blood, causing illness, while the bowel pores do.
 For every ounce of food and drink taken into the stomach, nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out of the body. If this waste material is not eliminated day by day is quickly ferments and generates poisons, gases and toxins which are absorbed or sucked into the blood stream through the lymph ducts which should suck only nourishment to sustain the body.
 A splendid health measure is to drink, before breakfast each day, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a harmless way to wash these poisons, gases and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels: thus cleansing, sweetening and .freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 \ quarter pound of limestone phos- phate costs but very little at the drug store hut is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on iEside-5athing. Men and women who are accustomed to wake I'D with a dull. aching head or have iUrrcd tongue, bad taste, nasty breath sall1w complexion. others who have bilious attacks, acid stomach or constipation are assured of pro nounced improvement in both health and appearance shortly.

LADIES! DARKEN
 YOUR GRAY HAIR
Lock years youngerl Use Grand nnother's recipe of Sage Tea and
 Sulphur and nobody will know.

The usc of Sage and Sulphur for re- toring faded. gray hair to it's natural color dates back to srandmother's time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark. glossy and abundant. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull. faded or streaked appear ance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect.
 But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays. by asking at any drug store for a 5O-cent bottle of 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" you will get this famous ole recipe which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandrun. dry feverish, itchy scalp and failing hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at time By morning the gray hair disappears, and after auoth- CT application or two il becomes beau tifully dark, glossy, and abundant.
