ally dangerous longer to wait. But
nothing can excuse or should ever

MIR. Wilson seems one Of those
who believes that nothing can be well

of display congenial as well as
timely assertion of power, the graft

Dental Judgment because, taking it
for granted that he is after a third

This I do not believe AS frivo-
lous and cranky as the times may be,

Strength.
Here is another link in the chain of
evidence to prove that our famous

strength for feeble, old people.
Mr.. Nelson H. Pease of the National
Soldiers Home, Tennessee, says:-'I
am "A years of age and was in a weak,
debilitated condition, poor appetite
and did not sleep well. Vinol gave
me a good appetite, 1 sleep well, and
it has built me up so I feel stronger
and better In every way. 1 strongly
recommend Vinol for such conditions
as 1 believe it prolongs life for old
people"

MURDERER MAKES
SENSATIONAL BREAK
While Handcuffed Climbed
25 feet to skylight and
Freedom.
(By Associated Press.)

NEWCASTLE, Pa. June 1S.-Laz-
arus Bollin, negro convicted of muir
der, made sensational escape from
the Lawrence county jail here this
morning, when. handcuffed he climbed
through skylight.
Police and county authorities who
Immediately started on his trail had
found no trace of the man up to eleven
o'clock.
Tipped off Saturday that inside bars
of the skylight had been cut Sheriff
Boyd investigated and was having four
sawed bars repaired this morning
when Bollin escaped.
Bollin was returning from breakfast
unaccompanied. How he climbed to
the skylight 25 feet above the floor
handcuffed puzzles the police. They
are working on the theory that he had
outside aid.
Bollin was awaiting the courts de-
cision on his motion for new trial fol-
lowing his conviction for the murder
of William Cassler, a man of Wam-
pun, who was shot after being robbed
year ago.
