$4,000 HOLD UP
IN JEWELRY STORE
Three Armed Bandits Make Big
Haul in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia. Nov. l. - Diamond
tween $4,000 and 100000 were stolen
by three young hiShwaymen in Il dra-
matte hold-up in Ii store al rs San
som street.
Two members of the firm Of Ziege,
l. Nemirofsky and Zeiger's 1S-year-
old son, were backed into a corner of
the store by the robbers, each OF
whom WAS armed with an automatic
pistol.
They snatched the diamonds from /
safe behind a large showcase, fled out
q small hallway 10 Il rear door. then
through an alley into Eighth street
and disappeared before police aid
could be procured.
Hundreds Of persons in the Vicln'
fty of Seventh and Eighth and Chest
nut streets were unaware the hold-uf
had taken place until Benjamin Nemi-
rofsky ran to Seventh and Chestnut
streets shouting for police and yelling
Catch the thieves"
A crowd gathered quickly, but when
TWO policemen entered tne store, less
than three minutes after the robbery
there was 40 sign of the bandits.
SO completely did the robbers cover
their trail that members Of the firm
and police were unable to learn
whether they used n motor car.
Israel Zieger, 30 Federal street, the
president of the firm. which does
mainly a wholesale business. was so
mnervcd by the holiness of the rob
bers that he tainted when the pistols
were pointed at him.
After the excitement had died down
and a search was made of the hallway
through which the robbers fled, Mem
irofsky found a tray of diamond rings,
worth about $4,000, which the rob-
bers had dropped in their flight.

STALE BLOOD
BLURS LIVING
GUIDES Pepto-Mangan Revives The
Blood To Healthy State.

Stale blood blurs living. 1t dulls
the love for pleasure, and weakens
the spirit. Thoughts sink into an
unredeemed dreariness that no goad-
ing Of the will can dispel. Where
there was thrilling excitement, there
is only an aching sensation of ia
tigue.
Guides Pepto-Mangan taken regu-
larly for a while puts a check to the
debilitating effects of thin, watery
blood. 1t supplies the blood with
red corpuscles, steps it up to it's nor
nal, rich redness. Then it is that
the pleasures of rhythmic living re-
turn. The smouldering glow of life
warns and brightens so that the
pleasant sensations of eating, sleep
ing, walking in the golden sunshine
breathing deep the healthgiving air,
again becime thrilling and full of de-
light.

The nonpartisan leader., 1921-08-08

public opinion decided to let it pass. The vote
practically unanimous for it in the senate The
hackers of the big army and navy program feared
to oppose it. But there was an amendment offered
by Senator Pomerene to the Borah resolution, ac-
ceptable to Borah himself. The vote on this amend
ment shows the true friends of world peace. The
amendment was as follows: >
"The president is hereby authorized, in his dis
cretion, to delay for period of six MONTHS in
whole or in part, the building program provided for
in this act in order to enable him to arrange for
conference with the governments of Great Britain
and Japan with the view of reducing substantially
the naval building programs of the several govern
ments so participating in said conference; and if
they agree upon such plan of reduction the presi-
dent is hereby further authorized to suspend in
whole or in part the said building program in order
to enable him to carry out any agreement thus
made"
