To the readers af The Evening Star. ‘The proprietors of the article to which attention 1g directed in this column firmly belfeve that there 4 nothing unbusiness-like or unprofessional in giv- ing the widest publicity, by means of newspaper advertising and otherwise, to articles of unques- tioned merit, whether of # medicinal or other na- ture. They furthermore believe that the objection Occasionally urged by some people against adver- tised preparations is born of dishonesty, rather than of unprejudiced judgment, Fully convinced of their article's marvelous efm™- cacy, as demonstrated in millions and millions of homes in every land and clime, they unhesitatingly offer tt to the public in every civilized country as the most wonderful preparation of its kind ever discovered; and they do this by methods which they hold to be not only dusiness-tike and Aonorable, but tn every way right and proper. Believing that a medicine, Ike a man, 1s best judged by ts action and indorsements, they present herewith the unqualified testimontals of men eminent in Public and private life all over the world. It must Teadily appear to every fair-minded man that neither favor, influence, nor money could purchase the unrestricted approval of the distinguished per- Sonages whose positive convictions are here given. Nothing but unexampled merit on the part of the article In question and a full realization of the claims advanced in its favor could call forth such unanimous and enthusiastic pratse. It 1s this in- trinsic merit that has caused the term “St. Jacob's Ol" to become synonymous with the words: “It Conquers Pain,” in the homes of over one hundred and fifty mililons of people in the new world and the old. The public will please note that the names given Are those of well-known, responsible parties, These are not silent witnesses Their statements are Positive and unquallfled. They are nineteenth century facta. The parties whose testimony 1s given are all alive. No grave yards have been Tobbed to swell the list.

A ROBBERY IN AN F STREET REAL ESTATE QPFICE— GRACKSMEN WHO LAUGH AT COMBINATION LOCKS. When the jauitor of the butiding No. 12 F street opened the building at 6 o'clock this morning he found the rear door opened, and, upon further investigation, discovered that the safe in the office of F. Smith & Son, real estate and insurance occupying the first, floor, n broke! poem A brace, two bits and a mimy lay on the floor by the safe.’ Books and papers from the safe were ‘scattered over the floor. A tin cash-box which had been broken open was found in the back rd, and the money drawer in the counter had Beun'pried open. The safe, which was oue of the Miller make, bad been opened by drilling through the steel sieuthing over the ‘combination loci ‘Thus the crackmen, who were evidently skilled burglars, were enabled to destroy the combination ‘and open the door. ‘Ihe lltile tron door inside was Smashed in, ‘The burglars secured only about $40 in inoney ahd an unendorsed check on the Central National Dank for a sma‘! amount, but they took a Jarge quantity of papers, Including real estate notes and documents held by the Fm us trustees, winteh will cause the firm considerable annoyance." Mr. F. H, Smith says the papers are of no value to any one but the firm. Several months ago Mr. Smith had in his employ for a few days & man named ‘Davenport, who upon leaving this city was arrested in New York, charged with Delng implicated in five Durgiaries. kx wasa theory of some of the police ofticials that this man had given to some brother cracksman information Mr. Smith's safe. Mr. Smith, however, said to a Star reporter today that Davenport was never inside ‘his office, bis employment being on Mr. Smith’s Jace in the country.
