Feeling Usually Precedes
SicknesS-InviteS 1t.
''Run Down" Means Weak Blood
Be Vigorous, Happy, Alive!
Take Pepto-Mangan, Fa-
nous Blood Builder.

Remember how dull, tired-out, and
depressed you felt before that last Sc
riously illness you had?
Any doctor will tell you there's al
ways danger when you get run down.
That's the time when disease germs
get their. chance. You admit you're not
feeling just right, but forget it's prob
ably because your blood is weak and
watery. That kind of blood can't keep
up the fight against ever lurking
germs. First thing you know, you're
ill-seriously.
It's much more sensible-and safer
to keep feeling fine. to start taking
good tonic at once when you're let
down and depressed.
Pepto- Mangan has been known for
years among physicians as ''the red
blood builder" a standard remedy that
agrees with the most sensitive stom-
ach, and is convenient to take. Comes
in either liquid or tablet form, equally
effective.
For rich, vigorous blood-the kind
that side-steps sickness and keeps you
active and alert in every fiber-start
taking Pepto Mangan today.

ROBBED
and ASSAULTED
JAMES HELTON HELD CHARGED
WITH CRIME-OTHER ARRESTS
EXPECTED TODAY.

James Helton was arrested yester-
day afternoon by Deputies Black and
Baylis and charged with assault and
grand larceny resulting from allega-
tons made by Earl Byers. Capiases
were issued for other members of a
party and arrests are expected today.
Helton was arrested near Klondike.
Information was filed for the arrest
by Solicitor Fisher as a result of state
ments made by Byers. Byers claimed
that he, HeIton and two other people
were riding in taxi in West Pensa-
cola and that parties knocked him in
the head with a soda bottle and then
robbed him of three $50 bills.
He said that when returning to the
city that he was put out of the taxi
near the Maxent Ball Park and the
car delivered the patrons to their
homes. He had tried to leave the car
before the alleged robbery he stated,
but did not have an opportunity to do
so. Following the assault he remarked
to the other members of the party that
it was not necessary to make the as
sault as he was out-numbered and they
could have taken the money.
Statements conflicting that of Byers
have been made it is understood and
robbery was not the motive accord
ing to these statements.
Byers is an elderly man and the
two wounds caused a great loss of
blood. After being put out of the taxi
he stated that he remained there for
some hours before he was picked up.

by lack of prompt treatment
