The ferment in Paris, which
during the two following days,
resembled an armed camp rather
than city, delayed the burial of

It was into the presence OF a

poor, the blood thin, the appetite fails
and the digestion weakens.

elderly people, because it creates a
good, healthy appetite, aids the diges-

Kramer.
 Gcullet rode from in front in both heats In the first Walthour battled him for a half lap, but was unable to get around, while in the second one Bobby fought Goullet the entire last lap. He could not beat him, but put up a great fight.
