THREE WOMEN ESCAPE
FROM DETENTION HOME
Disease Sprcnders Arc StIlI Mt Large,
Despite Efforts OF
Police.

Escape from the detention ward of
the City Home OF three discase-infec cd
womcn--Susie Chandler, Louise Wilson
and Mamie Freels-placed there by the
City Board Of Health. was effected
early yesterday morning. Late last
night they had not been recaptured by
the police. The escape was believed
to have been due to the poor vigilance
kept by officer Fl. II. Witzgall. of the
Second Police District, who was de-
tailed to this duty until permanent
guards could be provided.
The theory OF the police is that the
women climbed from the second story
by means of n ladder which was found
at the window yesterday morning at
ter the escape became known. Charles
Gullett, Jr., for whom two warrants
are out is believed by Chief Health
Officer Roy X. Flanagan responsible
for assisting the women to get out Of
tho detention home. Gullett is charged
in one of the warrants with trespass
on the property of the home. and the
other is for nonsupport. Gullett is
described by DR.. Flanagan a person
OF i'll repute and dangerous to public
health and the community.
Gullctt has been seen at the home
on several occasions. it was stated by
DIR. Flanagan. and has created n dis
turbaacc each time. The health au-
thoritics yesterday placed two perma-
nent guards at the home with orders
to maintain the strictest kind of watch.

At this time of the year people feel
weak. tired, listless, their blood is thin,
they have lived indoors and perhaps
expended all their mental and bodily
energy and they want to know how to
renew their energy and stamina. over
come headaches and backaches, have
clear eyes. a smooth, ruddy skin, and
feel the eXhilaration of real good health
tingling thru their body. Good, pure,
rich, red blood is the best insurance
against ills of all kinds. Almost all
diseases come from impure and inpOv-
erished blood. 1t is to be noticed in the
pale or pimply face, the tired, haggard
appearance or the liStleSS manner.
