Snook went away and in a few minutes sent a note to his wife, ask ing her to come to the Belmont ho. tel, a few doors east.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suit- ed for any season, but perhaps more generally needed, when the languid ! exhausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act apartments. Last week a pocket- book containivg $50 was missing. They suspected the Powers girl and started an investigation. Mre. Cutting’s room was searched and between tho mattress of the bed and the springs were found many of the missing articles.

She de- nied that she knew anything sbout them Mr. Cutting said he did not like to press a charge against her, but said that it was better for the com- munity and also for the girl that an example be made of ber.
